About Me

I’m John Clapham an independent coach, trainer, and consultant, specialising in DevOps and Agile.  Rownham Coaching is my company, created to allow me to provide consulting services and work with trusted partners.

My passion is helping teams build great products, creating environments and systems which are effective, productive and enjoyable to work in.  I have broad experience as an engineer and lead, gained creating web and enterprise applications in publishing, telecommunications, commerce, defence and public sector arenas.  My forays into Scrum, kanban and lean are fueled by coffee, lego and Bristol’s frequent inclement weather.

If you’d like to work together email me here: John@cotelic.uk or use the contact form.
