ABOUT ME

Galina Sabogal - SparklesInMind

My Mission

 

In the world of business, it is essential to understand and utilize a variety of innovative frameworks and tools in order to stay competitive and adapt to changing environments. This is why I specialize in agile leadership and business agility applying various scaled frameworks, including  SAFe , LeSS, SoS, and Scrum@Scale and Artificial Intelligence (AI), which enable organizations to effectively manage larger teams and initiatives.

In addition, I offer expertice in Management 3.0, OKR- techniques, agile tools as e.g. JIRA, Confluence and AI-tools, that help organizations to foster productivity, efficiency and innovation and stay on the cutting edge. 

I also provide support in organizational design and change management helping companies to create structures that are innovative and responsive to change. My expertise in agile frameworks and methods ( LeSS, SAFe, Scrum and Kanban) and AI-Integration helps my clients to optimize their workflows and improve their overall efficiency.

​In the last three years, I’ve expanded my expertise by deeply integrating AI tools into my work as both a small business owner and senior agile coach. Across diverse use cases and industries—from startups to large enterprises—I’ve embedded AI capabilities into business flows and process landscapes to enhance agility, automate tasks, and support data-driven decision-making. This unique combination of AI and agiltiy enables me to coach leaders and teams not only in becoming more agile, but also in becoming AI-enabled. As an AI Integration Coach, I empower clients to adopt intelligent solutions aligned with agile values—unlocking innovation, resilience, and sustainable performance at scale.
