Technical Leadership for Strategic Impact

Strategic Clarity. Effective Alignment. Measurable Outcomes. You weren’t hired just to keep the servers running. You were hired to shape the future. But without clear strategy, alignment, and authority—most technical leaders are stuck in reaction mode.

NKD Agility equips CTOs with the frameworks and insights to shift from tactical execution to strategic advisory, enabling measurable improvements in boardroom credibility and alignment.

Are you a CTO stuck in the weeds instead of setting the vision?

Are you leading transformation—but no one’s following?

Are you struggling to get buy-in for your tech initiatives?

Let’s change that. You deserve to be heard.

“Martin’s depth and breadth of knowledge and experience of the world of Agile/DevOps is incredible. He will switch between hands on development to advanced consulting or training on process, practices and tools to help you in your own DevOps journey. When the going gets tough in challenging situations he is super responsive and goes the extra mile… He is passionate about what he does and is always trying to improve the way we work to build high value products and solutions… Down to earth and straight talking. Highly recommend!”
