“It is with absolute joy and heartfelt enthusiasm that I write this recommendation for Dave Westgarth, one of the most phenomenal professionals I’ve ever had the honor to work alongside. Dave is nothing short of incredible. His depth of knowledge, sharp insights, and brilliant wit make him not only an extraordinary instructor and collaborator but also a true pleasure to work with. I had the privilege of partnering with Dave on the PURE Project Manager® credentialing program through the PURE Management Alliance, and I can confidently say: Dave exceeds expectations in every category. Dave contributed not just one, but two outstanding courses to the program: 1. Lean Delivery in Action: Removing Waste and Maximizing Value A practical, power-packed course that teaches how to optimize workflows, eliminate waste, and apply Lean tools like Value Stream Mapping, WSJF, and Lean Portfolio Management to drive efficiency and real results. 2. Mastering Agile Retrospectives: Best Practices, Tools, and Anti-Patterns for Enhanced Project Outcomes This course is a must for Agile practitioners—offering deep dives into retrospective formats, anti-patterns, psychological safety, and facilitation techniques that drive continuous improvement. Both courses are loaded with actionable, high-value takeaways that reflect Dave’s deep expertise and passion for delivering practical, real-world learning. But Dave didn’t stop there. He went above and beyond by participating in multiple interviews and webinars and even leading an Ask Me Anything session that created a meaningful space for engagement, learning, and community. Dave brings grit, initiative, and forward-thinking to every interaction. He embodies the very spirit of what we envisioned for this program and then took it even further. Dave Westgarth is the kind of person you want to work with, for, beside, under, and around. He gives 110%—every time—and inspires everyone around him to do the same. I am truly honored and blessed beyond measure to have shared this project space with him. Anyone lucky enough to learn from, work with, or collaborate alongside Dave is walking into something extraordinary.”
