BUILD BETTER WAYS OF WORKING

HELPING ORGANISATIONS RETHINK HOW WORK GETS DONE.

I help organisations rethink how they work so they can deliver value sooner, safer, and happier. Not by selling frameworks or chasing the next big thing, but by helping people see their work differently, experiment with confidence, and build ways of working that actually fit their reality. Because smooth operations don’t just save time — they unlock value.

ABOUT MATT CROKER

I’m Matt Croker — a consultant, trainer, coach, and facilitator with a background in software development and real-world team leadership.

I learned agility the hard way: by experimenting, failing, and adapting inside teams long before I had the terminology for it. That experience shaped how I work today.

My role is to help leaders and teams slow down just enough to notice what’s really happening, ask better questions, and make smarter decisions.

I’m agnostic by design, practical by default, and deeply curious about how value really flows through organisations. Clients often tell me, “I never thought about it that way” — and that moment of insight is where meaningful change begins.

TRAINING — TURN YOUR PEOPLE INTO REAL CHANGE-MAKERS

My training is practical, tailored, and grounded in your real context. It’s not about ticking boxes or collecting certifications — it’s about changing how people think and work.

Sessions are designed around your challenges, your teams, and your goals, helping participants learn by doing, experimenting, and reflecting together.

Rather than teaching frameworks, I focus on building skills and mental models: decision-making, collaboration, flow, and adaptability.

The result is training that sticks — people leave with new perspectives, practical tools, and the confidence to apply what they’ve learned immediately.

COACHING — BUILDING AUTONOMY, CLARITY, AND MOMENTUM

My coaching supports leaders and teams who want to work better without being told what to do.

I work alongside people to uncover what’s really holding them back, challenge assumptions, and create space for experimentation and growth.

The aim isn’t dependency on a coach — it’s capability. Through reflective conversations and practical exploration, teams develop stronger alignment, resilience, and confidence. Coaching engagements often reveal that the real problem wasn’t where clients thought it was — and that insight unlocks momentum.

FACILITATION — BETTER CONVERSATIONS THAT MOVE WORK FORWARD

Good facilitation creates the conditions for progress. I design and lead workshops that help teams think clearly, surface tensions safely, and make better decisions together.

Whether it’s strategy, discovery, or problem-solving, my facilitation style is neutral, playful, and focused on outcomes. The goal is simple: turn conversations into shared understanding, alignment, and action that actually sticks.

MY EXPERIENCE IS GROUNDED, NOT DOGMATIC

I’ve worked with teams, leaders, and executives across product, technology, and operations — typically in organisations under 300 people.

As part of a global community of operational excellence practitioners, a licensed ProKanban.org trainer, and a Management 3.0 facilitator, I’m not here to push practices or talk a lot of airy-fairy mambo-jumbo, but to stay sharp, connected, and provide actually useful frameworks and tools.

I regularly write and share insights on LinkedIn and Medium, exploring value, flow, leadership, and the human side of work.

CASE STUDIES & REAL-WORLD EXAMPLES

My collaboration with Matt extended over a number of months, during which I, as a Product Manager, found a true partner in tackling the emerging challenges one expects when working in a dynamic industry. Matt consistently approached our work with an open mind, focusing on the real needs of the team rather than relying on rigid, textbook solutions.
Beyond his strong professional expertise, Matt genuinely cared about the people, the relationships within the team, and the overall health of our collaboration. His ability to build trust, create a supportive environment, and guide the team through change made a meaningful impact on how we worked together. I highly recommend Matt as an Agile Coach and would gladly work with him again.

Sergey TadevosyanCEO

Matt Croker delivered an outstanding, bespoke training experience for our team of program managers. From the outset, Matt took the time to listen carefully to our needs and objectives, ensuring the design was truly tailored to our context. The result was a highly engaging, day-long in-person workshop, complemented by a valuable two-hour virtual follow-up session that reinforced key learning.
The training was extremely interactive, which helped the concepts land and remain memorable long after the sessions ended. Matt introduced thought-provoking topics and facilitated discussions that challenged our thinking and encouraged practical application. I would highly recommend Matt to organisations seeking customised, impactful training delivered with insight and professionalism.

Nicole TaboneDirector - Salesforce

I’ve previously attended one of Matt’s APK classes, and it’s clear to see his level of knowledge and passion for the topic. Throughout the interactive course, Matt continually embeds his previous Kanban applications and provides examples to assist with application and understanding.
Matt is continually pivoting the course based on questions and participant understanding. He knows when to speed up or slow down based on the group, and will always stop at any point to answer questions or clarify content. On top of this, he’s willing to be on hand after the course to support with further study, application, and development.
Thanks again for all your insight, help, and great teaching.
