Consulting to help you do what you do, better.
It’s not easy to become a Broadsword consultant. Our professionals have years of hands-on technical, process, and project management experience and all have spent time with software, engineering and management consulting firms honing their unique combination of skills. They have been in the trenches and have lived the challenges you live with every day. While we’re proud of our Scrum, PMP, ISO, or CMMI Institute certifications, where we really add value is our expertise with planning, communications, organizational change, facilitation, coaching, and implementing sustainable change. Add to that Broadsword’s tools and methods, and you have a powerful, positive force at your disposal.
