Are you tired of lengthy planning meetings with limited outcome?

Is your team spending too much time developing features that are no longer relevant when ready for customers?

Are your Trello Boards giving your team the transparency you hoped they would?

About Me

Hi, I’m Manfred, the founder of UpstartIT. For the past 10+ years, I’ve created server software, web and mobile apps and managed projects in B2B and B2C companies. I had the chance to work with renowned companies supporting them in streamlining their processes and making the development pipelines more transparent and predictable.

I empowered startups by guiding them towards a controlled rollout and implementation of agile principles and enabling them in setting up a project management that actually helps them grow and deliver fast and with confidence.

I’m looking forward to sharing my knowledge and bringing tailored services to your organization. Let me help and support you in moving forward and achieving your key business goals!

How I work

Sometimes a theory, a framework or a good recommendation is simply not enough – leading by example, becoming part of a team, guidance and teaching is needed. This is why I strongly believe in the right mix of gathering observations, creating actionable insights and adding a hands-on mentality as the formula for success for any team. Transparent processes and actions along the journey are key components for how I operate. You can book me on the base of hourly rates, to make sure you the best service tailored to your needs let‘s get in touch and discuss packages matching your actual needs and business goals.
