Since 2013, I am working in Agile Environments as a Scrum Master, Innovation facilitator and Agile Coach (multicultural environments of 150 employees) coaching, mentoring, providing agile trainings and workshops and managing innovation process and projects.
I am the founder of Cyprus Agile and Innovation community and already organized two successful Agile meetups in Limassol.

As a scrum master Demetris number one goal is to help cultivate championship culture. He has a great attitude. He's the prime example of an ideal assistant agile coach who can assimilate with the team and be accepted as "one of us" on the field. Developers respect his technical understanding and they also appreciate the insight he provides with his style of servant leadership. Through scrum practices, ceremonies, and using agile development frameworks.
He always looks to encourage and plays to the strengths of individuals on the team. With experience in billing technologies, quality assurance, and facilities management. One of his biggest strengths is being able to connect with people on a personal level to gaining trust. Demetris truly cares about what makes people tick and he knows how to use it as positive reinforcement motivation. I feel that team works is better when the team enjoys working together. Demetris is a scrum master with Shu-Ha-Ri way of thinking.
Shu - Follow the rule
Ha - Break the rule
Ri - Be the rule
