Value Vectors

AGILE & LEAN [means]™, a Value Vectors LLC business, is a Silicon Valley based process optimization training, coaching and consulting company founded by Lejla Čizmić. With AGILE & LEAN [means]™ we enable individuals and companies to deliver the desired transformation and optimization results by utilizing Agile and Lean frameworks and custom process methodologies. We provide private and public Coaching and Training focusing on Problem Solving Techniques, Agile, Scrum and Lean in Software, Hardware, Startup and Enterprise environments. OUR APPROACH Process efficiency without a genuine focus on an individual is like a body without a soul, a life without love, coffee without sugar - bland, emotionless and purely mechanical. To make transformations successful and to create a culture of learning and optimization, we must focus on human perception and perspectives as the integral mechanisms that are guiding all of our activities. Because of this, not only do we use Agile & Lean methodologies to attain corporate or personal goals, we also continuously optimize our methods based on the latest learning from the fields of cognitive psychology, linguistics and organizational development. A person's perception triggers motivation, which in turn is the starting point for all action. How we process information that leads to our own perceptions is at the heart of both cognitive psychology and linguistics. As we move outward from the complexity of an individual to complexities of systems of individuals as they are found in corporate and organizational environments, the number of possible variables that can affect the strategic goal attainment also drastically increases. So the research and learnings from the organizational development field also becomes critical for a successful and sustainable agile and lean transformations and optimizations.
