Pierre E. Neis is a French‑German organizational transformation consultant, agile coach, and executive coach who has supported more than 200 organizations worldwide in their agile journeys across finance, industry, IT, the public sector, and hospitality. He is the creator of the AO (Agile Organizations) Method, a systems‑based approach that treats “Agile” as a dynamic of the organization rather than a team‑level process, and helps leaders answer the question: “What kind of Agile is your Agile?”

Author of The New Normal: AO Concepts and Patterns of 21st‑Century Agile Organizations and Swarming X4, Pierre designs adaptive, people‑centric operating models that increase coherence, cohesion, and responsiveness without burning people out. Over the last decade, he has created several practice‑oriented frameworks and serious‑game formats, including the AO transformation patterns, Swarming practices, and the Agile Animal Farm and PLöRK leadership‑through‑games workshops, which have been used by Swiss SMEs to global players.

Pierre speaks regularly at conferences such as Agile Tour, CAS (Conferencia Agile Spain), PMI Switzerland events, and other European communities, where he focuses on agile systems dynamics, AO transformation journeys, and practical patterns for moving from “doing Agile” to designing truly agile organizations. He works today as Agile Org Coach & Supervisor at Menschgeist GmbH in Switzerland, helping leadership teams, HR, and coaches design viable structures, clarify roles, and build transformations that are measurable through five experience‑based AO metrics.
