Hi, my name is Radek Orszewski and I am the creator of the Lean Agile Ninja brand.
How did it all start? I think it was when I was 16 years old and became\u2026 a sailing instructor. Yes, despite my young age and quite a difference from my students, I realized that imparting not easy knowledge in an accessible way is something I enjoy and do well, as evidenced by the results from the beginning. Today, when I have been working professionally for nearly 20 years, I still hear it from the people I meet on my path. <\/p>\n

My career paths have not been simple and typical. Despite graduating with a degree in biotechnology engineering from Wroclaw University of Technology, I didn\u2019t work much \u201cin the industry,\u201d but the studies that taught me to think, to understand how complex systems work came in very handy. Well, I also had a love affair with astronomy, which I started and, although I didn\u2019t finish it, I understood that the Universe at the nanoscale and cosmological scale have a lot in common. <\/p>\n

Similarly twisted paths caused me to work casually as a journalist for several years. First in the telecommunications industry and then in cycling. Well, that\u2019s right. because bicycling, as well as the aforementioned sailing, various water activities are always something that drew me in. And if he is involved in something? It\u2019s 102%. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

At 102 percent, I also worked as a software tester, project and people leader. A long time ago, back in 2009, I stepped into agile, into my first Scrum Master role, and that\u2019s how I stayed. The agile, though not always mainstream, search for how to work with meaning, deliver value and understand context steered me toward the Kanban Method. <\/p>\n

Although working in the telco, travel industry, gaming, or fin-tech industries I came across new contexts all the time, the problems turned out to be so similar. Hence, without shying away from other approaches, I deepened and deepened how to combine agile with lean, and how the aforementioned Kanban helps us manage the intangible, i.e. knowledge-based work. <\/p>\n

After years of working in organizations and smuggling teaching, coaching or consulting into the roles I\u2019ve held since 2008, I decided to see if there was value in it for others. And how? It turned out that Lean Agile Ninja, long associated only with me, is a way to do what I\u2019m good at and help others with it. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

I am an Accredited Trainer of the Kanban Method and the only Polish-language Accredited Kanban University Consultant (AKC). I am constantly developing my experience and knowledge with other approaches such as working at scale (LeSS, SAFe) but also how to build flow-oriented organizations. Therefore, I became the first Polish Team Topologies Advocate and Lean Agile Ninja is one of the first Team Topologies Solution Partner and Training Partner. <\/p>\n

What else? Constantly something new, influenced by my family including the biggest challenge \u2013 being a dad of two wonderful boys. Hence I am unfamiliar with LEGO, Ninjago. Star Wars, or my childhood fascination that stays for a lifetime \u2013 Star Trek. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

For almost 20 years (I can’t believe it myself when I write this!) I’ve been mainly involved in two topics: business strategy and agile management and product development (digital and otherwise).<\/p>\n

I have worked in a variety of roles from Head of Product, Product Strategist, to Sales Director or Business Development Lead. I strongly believe in and implement \u2013 my own and my clients\u2019 \u2013 goal-driven approach, agile values and user needs. My main talent identified by Gallup is Strategist. <\/p>\n

In the areas of product management, I focus on finding and testing the best paths to create digital products, based on business and user needs, using Continuous Product Discovery, Continuous Strategizing, lean Start-up, data and common sense approaches.<\/p>\n

I really enjoy interacting with people and supporting their development \u2013 I am the daughter of two passionate teachers.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

I work with Product Owners, Product Managers, Agile Coaches, SMs and C-Levels, with agile teams producing digital products. <\/p>\n

At Lean Agile Ninja, I am the godmother of the company, one of the main stakeholders, as well as a collaborative trainer, contributing to topics, naturally, centered around agile management and product development and business models. I have extensive international experience in training and coaching. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
