Company & Clients

How we run our company

We are driven by our purpose to enable companies to create amazing outcomes for their business, for people and for our planet. We believe the first step in achieving our purpose is to practice what we preach. That is why we use outcome-oriented principles and practices to run Amazing Outcomes, with Scrum being at the heart of our organization. Practicing outcome-orientation within our own company is what sets us apart and helps us really help others.

How we are different

We are the goldilocks of our profession
We are bigger than freelancers and smaller than corporates. Stronger than one person but faster than bigger organizations. We have a flat hierarchy but with personal accountability. We are personal and professional. In other words, we are just right for you.
Diversity is an advantage, not a buzzword
For us, diversity isn't about political correctness. We come from a range of backgrounds, and we have a vast wealth of knowledge across multiple industries. What brings us together is a passion for creating amazing outcomes for our clients.
We practice what we preach
We don’t rely on second hand referrals. We like to put things to the test. So, we only teach and coach things that we have tested and done ourselves and know that works. We practice what we preach.

Our clients

Here are some of the companies who we help to transform complex challenges into sustainable solutions with agile training, agile coaching and workshops:

What our clients say about us

Dr. Nicolai Seitz, General Counsel, Vaillant Group

"Finally, the term ‚agility‘ is no longer a buzzword without content. Johannes and Claus-Peter communicated its meaning, principles and practices in a vivid and playful way and worked out the effects on contracts with us. Customer-oriented, friendly and to the point. Absolutely recommendable!"

Dörte Witkovsky, Scrum Master, Testo SE & Co. KGaA

"The training goal was to develop a common understanding of Scrum on our team. Due to COVID-19, the training was online, which was a big benefit as this is how we work daily. It had a strong practical focus and a good portion of fun which was very motivating! Already in the training, we could see our impediments more clearly and decided how to approach them. 2.5 months after the training, we see many positive results: We got a lot more done than everybody expected, with higher quality than before. It also helped us work as a team in COVID-19 times. Even the initial doubters don‘t want to go back to the old way of working! I can highly recommend working with Johannes — not only in trainings but also as a coach."

Lars Cornels, Legal Counsel, Drägerwerk AG & Co. KGaA

"The PSM I course from Johannes Geske is a great example of time and money well spent. It is very informative, greatly structured and far from boring. He has made it good fun and highly interactive. I would like to recommend this course to be taken by every Lawyer specialized in IT Law and working with teams or clients who use scrum or other agile methods (I guess most do...). For one it is a useful tool to be used even in the legal world. Secondly in gives a much deeper inside into how your client/colleague works and what his situation looks like. This knowledge is key to provide a good service or steer them according to plan. Just as much as you cannot work in this field without certain technical knowledge, it greatly helps knowing the used methods when aiming at being an efficient and up to speed legal counsel."

Helge Hintze, Head of Configuration and Calculation Software

"My team and I attended Johannes’ Scrum Training to gain a shared understanding of Scrum. The interactive training was a great experience and achievement for all of us."

Max Ostrowski, Teamleiter Scouting Deutschland, innogy SE

"This was the first time our globally distributed team ran a Design Sprint. Not only did we experience a new approach to solving challenges fast and getting to know user needs better, we also grew as a team! Thank you, Johannes, for facilitating this fun, 'brutally fast' and very valuable process."

Dr. Max Ruhwinkel, Director Group Customer IT, Vaillant Group

"Johannes is a trusted partner who has been helping us build agile teams for many years. Since these teams have become agile, customer relationship and customer satisfaction have improved significantly."
