The ‘Permission to Shine’ Speaker

Professional BIO

Margaret Lynch Raniere was born and raised in Attleboro, MA. She now lives in Framing Ham, MA with her amazing husband David of 10 Years.

She spent 18 years in engineering, management, and technical sales in several fortune 500 companies.

She has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, Miami Herald, Houston and San Francisco Chronicle, NBC, ABC, CBS News, FOX and CNN to name a few.

Margaret is driven by the frustration that she and thousands of talented, passionate, brilliant women experience when they decide to step outside their comfort zone and do something BIG, only to find themselves mysteriously stuck, procrastinating and spinning in self-doubt. This costs unnecessary loss of time, money and brings the painful disappointment of watching one’s treasured dream slowly die “on the back burner”. Margaret has made it her mission to expose and eliminate the old rules and hidden fears that keep success-focused people playing small at the mind/body/nervous system level and show them how to access the “motivation rebound” to reclaim their confidence, passion, and courage to take bold and consistent action.
Margaret Lynch Raniere now travels the world to live and virtual events helping men and women both personally and professionally reset their brain, body and mindset alignment with their goals and dreams.

I help corporations, start-ups, and professionals to build new ventures, minimizing their risk and maximizing the return on investment, effectiveness, and fun.

In 2003 I spotted new agile ways to develop software and, as a young entrepreneur I gave them a try. I introduced agile in eBay Italia, Siemens and FAO but in 2011 I realized the problem often is in organisations’ governance and in the agreements we negotiate. This led me to become a member of the board of European Organisation Design Forum (EODF).

I wrote a few books: “Pro PHP Refactoring”, a TDD chapter in “PHP Best Practices” and “Extreme Contracts” in 2017, on contracts and negotiation in knowledge work. I also contributed to a couple of books written by Jurgen Appelo.

I am among the founders of ALE Agile Lean Europe network, PHP User Group Roma and Arduino User Group Roma.
