Mr. Paggel has more than 20 years of experience in agile work at Continental. Currently, he is working as Senior Transformation Lead with high experience in agile- and waterfall models. “Most of the time, it is my job to be ahead of things. Unfortunately, I am living in the Land of the Red Queen. It takes all the running I can do to stay in the same place. Seriously, working on and with systems and their interactions is at the same time challenging and rewarding. In addition, I am never done. I started my working life as experimental physicist, looking for patterns in images and other data, either in real space or in electronic properties of things. I have never stopped searching for patterns and structures, the object under investigation has simply changed over time. Now it is patterns in teams, projects, organizations. For some I am too abstract. You judge for yourself.

This is simple: My job is to be curious. To look around, find a solution for something. Understand the pattern and structure behind the solution. Steal the idea and use it somewhere else. It works for basic research in solid state physics the same way as variant navigation in automotive software or system development. I work my abstract style while talking to people and learning all kinds of things. The more I give, the more I get back. People deliver the results, I am delivering the structure.
