Autorenporträt
Michael K. Levine brings together compelling insights on lean and agile software development, creative writing and teaching, and decades of practical successful application as a senior manager in leading financial and software companies. Michael's career has primarily focused on how to profit through the application of information technology. He was educated at Carleton College and Princeton University. His early career was not directly in technology - first he did international trade negotiation at the US Commerce Department and then joined First Bank System as a corporate banker. In both positions he drifted towards software and in 1990 he joined Norwest Bank and began his full-time technology career. Michael progressed through strategy, project management, CTO, and divisional CIO roles, adopting agile techniques before they were so named. He fully embraced lean and agile concepts as they were popularized - helping build and transform teams, and delivering value time after time. Michael's engagement with modern lean and agile development began at Wells Fargo, where after succeeding in one area with agile concepts he became responsible for a major portion of an enormous and challenged project that did not use these techniques. He then led technology and process engineering throughout the mortgage crisis, rapidly building teams and frantically deploying technology to help struggling borrowers, investors, and the bank. In 2011 Michael joined US Bank where he initially led a program to deploy a new branch banking system (bringing lean and agile to a highly structured waterfall environment) before returning to the mortgage industry as the technology lead for US Bank Home Mortgage in 2013, and now leading all consumer lending and business banking technology. Michael shared his insights in two well-received books on lean and agile software development from Productivity Press. The first is Tale of Two Systems: Lean and Agile Software Development for Business Leaders, emerging from his frustration with unnecessary and expensive project failures and his desire to help avoid such failures in the future. His second book is Tale of Two Transformations: Bringing Lean and Agile Software Development to Life, which focuses on how to change an organization to use the approaches he illuminated in his first. Michael's trilogy is now completed with People over Process: Leadership for Agility, which guides readers in honoring the first Agile principle to create and sustain agility. Michael lives in St. Paul, Minnesota, with his lovely wife Holly Lindsay, who has been patient as Michael spent hours in the basement writing. Website: TheTalesofAgility.com
