We attended Professional Scrum Master) course that Faisal conducted in Nov 2011. Faisal is a great trainer, he gave us best answers about our endless questions and guided everyone perfectly to learn scrum. I learned many things on that course about scrum and I will use most of them in my new project as soon as possible.
Barbara Gibson, Telefonica UK
Faisal presented a Professional Scrum Master (PSM) training course that I attended. Faisal communicated the course material very clearly, was able to provide good practical examples to clearly articulate the subject matter. Even those students who already had considerable experience in using Scrum techniques were able to learn something new.
Martin Smith, Agile Scrum Coach, O2 UK
Faisal is very smart, articulate and knowledgeable. He "gets" agile and can convert his technical and management experience into effective guidance for those embarking on the Agile journey. I have no hesitation in recommending him as a Agile Coach and Trainer but also as a great colleague.
Dan Tillin, Technical Team Lead UBM Aviation Worldwide Limited
We recently undertook a week of Agile/Scrum Training with Faisal conducting the classes. We found him to be extremely knowledgeable of the subject matter, and able to highlight the commercial and personal benefits of adopting Agile methodologies. The course was well balanced with theory and practical exercises which were fun and interesting and well designed to effectively explain the way Agile can improve your development processes and how the various Scum elements should be practiced. We were very pleased that we chose Faisal and hope to work with him again in the future.

Graham Lovelady Telefonica UK
I recently attended a Professional Scrum Master (PSM) training course presented by Faisal and found him to be (a) extremely knowledgable on the subject, and (b) a very professional, capable presenter. He clearly knows the subject well, utilising personal experience to demonstrate points made in the syllabus, and has a very relaxed and practical style of presenting the learning matter. I found the course enjoyable, informative and (as I passed the final assessment) highly productive. I have no hesitation in recommending Faisal's work in this role.
