Ambient Consulting

Yesterday, Ambient Consulting attended "Tee Time with Tech Execs" at Office Golf as a Silver Sponsor. The event supported Genesys Works Twin Cities—an impactful organization that empowers high school students in underserved communities with skills, mentorship, and career opportunities.   Thank you to Genesys Works and the organizers for bringing us together for this great cause!   #TechForGood #FutureWorkforce

Ambient is proud to continue our support of Mustaches for Kids - Twin Cities (M4KTC) for our fifth straight year. M4KTC is a unique and impactful fundraiser where participants—known as "Growers"—commit to growing mustaches for 30 days while raising funds for a local children's charity. This year, all proceeds will benefit Breakthrough Twin Cities, an organization that empowers students on their path to college by fostering a community of mutual learning between students and educators.   Last year, Ambient Consulting was named “Best Corporate Sponsor” for raising the most funds, and our CEO, Andrew Fernholz, received “Best in Stache” as a grower at the Annual "Stache Bash." Since Mustaches for Kids America was founded in 1999, the organization has raised over $12 million for children’s charities nationwide. We are honored to be part of this growing impact.   How It Works: ✔️ Growers, like our CEO, start clean-shaven and spend a month growing a mustache. ✔️ Throughout the campaign, they raise funds by sharing their mustache progress. ✔️ The month concludes with the "Stache Bash," where participants celebrate their efforts and awards are given for fundraising and creativity.   Follow the journey as Drew and the Ambient team participate in this year’s Grow Campaign. Stay tuned for updates, mustache milestones, and fun challenges.   *To donate and track Drew’s progress, visit his personal grower page: https://lnkd.in/gb9gdmSG     #M4KTC #MustachesForKids #BreakthroughTwinCities #CommunityImpact #EducationMatters

In today’s fast-paced financial services landscape, staying competitive isn’t just about keeping up with the market — it’s about proactively driving change. That’s exactly what we helped a prominent financial cooperative managing $12 billion in assets achieve when they turned to Ambient for agile transformation. At a pivotal moment, the company recognized that their outdated waterfall development model was no longer sustainable. More than implementing a new methodology, they needed to reshape the way their organization approached development. Ambient's team of agile coaches led this cultural shift, ensuring every team member understood their role and the value they brought to the table. The Results? -Faster turnaround times for fixes and updates. -More frequent and higher-quality releases. -A seamless experience for their users, culminating in a 4.8-star rating for their mobile app on the App Store. This transformation wasn’t just about delivering a tool or a process. It was about equipping a large, complex organization to embrace change, innovate, and continue evolving to meet their members’ needs. Agility isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s about fostering a mindset of continuous improvement, collaboration, and responsiveness. The right approach to agile can accelerate not just product delivery, but also your entire organization’s capacity to adapt and thrive. #AgileTransformation #DigitalInnovation #ContinuousImprovement #Leadership #TechTransformation #FinancialServices #AgileMindset #AzureDevOps
