Keil Wilson (k-EYE-ill or kile) has a long and varied IT background and has seen many of the challenges IT organizations face firsthand. Across roles as a developer, lead, project manager, and IT architect, he often ran into the same pressures around scope, schedule, and cost. Looking for better alternatives to the traditional planning and estimating approaches taught by "professors and professionals," he turned to the Manifesto for Agile Software Development. The result was happier customers, more engaged teams, and quality products/projects delivered and refined frequently.

Since that shift to agile development, Keil has spent years building agile teams that use iterative delivery and feedback to provide timely, valuable IT products and services for organizations of all sizes. He is a certified agile coach, agile leader, and Scrum Master who helps teams, clients, and customers reach their goals using agile principles and practices.
