Bio:

Sarah Steffen has been working in software development and IT for 15 years.
As an employee and leading teams of up to 60 people, her career included the gaming industry as well as global corporate IT.

In 2014, however, things got repetitive - transition up the ladder or do her own thing? Sarah jumped right into freelancing and founding. Now, as a freelance agile coach and founder of anything agile, she guides teams and companies in their digital and agile transformation. Sarah is also the co-founder of freelancers & friends, a think tank on freelancing and new work.

Her interests in food and sustainability have culminated in opening and running (and selling) a restaurant in Frankfurt and with her love for learning and sharing she enjoys being a mentor at Founder Institute and a lecturer at several universities.

Sarah is also a mother of two toddlers, and knows about the struggles parents (let's face it: still mostly mothers) face in the workplace as well as with founding and freelancing. That is why she is passionate about working remote, standing together as women and finding the right blend between work and life.
