Werner Gygax

Werner is specialized in positions where change happens. His holistic mindset creates value that others can’t. Cross-functional roles as combinations of customer focused, innovative & digitally transformative work brings his project management skills and lean-agile leadership best into play.

Since his profile uniquely combines project management skills, agile techniques and military crisis management experience in conflict areas, he spent the last 18 months as the Project Consultant for the Covid-19 task force of the canton of Aargau in the role of deputy leader for the Covid-19 programm (vaccinate-test-trace-certify) serving 700'000 inhabitants from the 4th largest canton in Switzerland .

His initial interest in concepts such as customer experience, customer journeys and service design have been triggered during an exchange year studying in Sweden, a country widely known for its digital thought leadership. His passion for enabling change became apparent when he took on a driving change management role in a large-scale global IT implementation project. In recent years, he has widened his interests to include agile ways of working, for which he holds 3 of the worldwide most recognized certifications (SAFe SPC, PSM I and PMI-ACP).

The ventures he has been part of range from product development to market entry, from the introduction of IT systems and tools to large-scale IT-transformation programs, from conflict management on team level to crisis management in foreign civil conflict, from the establishment of new partnerships to small-scale ecosystems and from routine work to iterative complex delivery using agile practices.
