“We used Pete Cohen at a Barclays Agile Fest held at the Principality Stadium, Cardiff. It was an event that was attended by over 170 people from all business areas of Barclays, along with a wide and varied representation from the agile community, from across the UK and a number of different industries. Pete’s brief as the first keynote speaker on the day’s agenda was to enthuse the audience, and to get them thinking about what they wanted to achieve from the event. He certainly did this and he was very well received. Feedback from the attendees was fantastic! Pete comfortably delivered the brief and was a real asset to the event. Can’t wait to work with him again in the future.” Agile Ffest Cardiff Organiser
