ZXM then mentored Fishbat leadership through using Scrum to operate their entire value stream, from sales and client acquisition to delivery – supporting clients in real time with social media, marketing, digital strategy, and SEO – using Sprints.

Moreover, this has improved the collaborative relationship with their clients, improved customer satisfaction, improved transparency, improved collaboration within and between Fishbat teams, and given the CEO the ability to deliver more with less.
