# Andrea Provaglio

Agile coach, author, and organizational consultant based in Italy with extensive international experience. Andrea appeared on the podcast to discuss what agile really means beyond the buzzwords, drawing on decades of experience helping teams move past ceremonial Scrum toward genuine adaptive practices. He has worked with both startups and large enterprises across Europe and the US, and brings a systems-thinking perspective that is refreshingly grounded.

## Notes

- One of the most thoughtful guests on the topic of organizational culture; avoids simplistic frameworks
- Strongly critical of "Agile Industrial Complex" certifications and consultancies that miss the point
- Has a coaching background that shows in how he listens and asks questions; the conversation flowed naturally
- His writing on complexity theory applied to software teams influenced how Luca thinks about team dynamics
