ROK KERSIC
@rokkersic
I lead enterprise Agile transformations that accelerate release cadence, improve flow, and strengthen delivery predictability.
What I'm looking for
I've led enterprise Agile delivery and operating-model evolution for major telecommunications and pharmaceutical companies, launching ARTs, facilitating PI Planning and System Demos, and aligning strategic priorities with predictable execution. My work accelerated deployment cadence from three months to two weeks, reduced MTTR by more than a week, and cut unplanned business requests by over 50%.
Across ee Factor GmbH, Agilephoria, and Cratis Media, I've coached executives, delivery leaders, product owners, and teams through SAFe adoption, governance, prioritisation, and flow improvement in multi-country and regulated environments. I bring a background in corporate law, combining disciplined risk management with practical delivery leadership.
