Workshop Leader

Gary Hinkle has extensive real-world leadership, consulting and training experience working with many companies from start-ups to large enterprises. His training approach is unique and practical, based on experience not theory.

Gary’s experience with both waterfall and agile methods led to his strong conviction that an agile way-of-working is almost always the best fit, but typically needs a hybrid agile project management approach that includes sequential planning aspects. Because there wasn’t a documented Agile for Hardware process that was useful, he co-developed the Modified Agile for Hardware Development (MAHD) framework and leverages MAHD elements in current practice.

Since 2002, thousands of engineers have benefitted from Gary’s engineering leadership and project management workshops.
