Who we are

Gil Broza is 3P Vantage’s founder and principal expert in how organizations develop technology. His breadth and depth of knowledge, skills, and experience will address everything you need to deliver the right value, at the right time, to the right customers.

Over 100 product development organizations seeking transformations, makeovers, or improvements have relied on his pragmatic, modern, and respectful support.

Our other advisors/coaches/trainers are all independent experts who have collaborated with Gil for years and who will take equally good care of you. On all engagements, Gil will be your main service provider.

Gil has written 4 original books. Deliver Better Results explains how to improve value delivery efficiently and reliably, using plain language, minimum theory, lots of real examples, and no prescription. The Agile Mind-Set explains how Agile practitioners approach their work to get amazing results. The best-selling The Human Side of Agile is the definitive practical guide to leading teams in the real world. And Agile for Non-Software Teams provides a pathway for considering, designing, starting, growing, and maintaining Agile outside of software/IT.

Gil is a former developer and R&D manager. He has been a regular contributor and coaching track chair for the Agile 20xx series of conferences, a sought-after speaker for other industry events and groups, and a host of numerous public webinars about process and leadership.

Our approach

Technological value delivery takes place in a system, so that’s who we work with: all the people and processes that transform ideas into impactful products.

Our proprietary model SQUARE (explained in this book and this white paper) describes how to make a value delivery system more fit for purpose. We help our clients apply its strategies and create the necessary leadership foundation.

We work situationally with every client. We don’t “install” process frameworks, context-free practices, or AI tools and hope they reliably improve performance. Instead, we collaboratively define processes that fit the client context, and influence the system-wide changes to mindset and behaviours that make those choices effective.

We’re intentionally unaffiliated with the big players in consulting / Agile / training / tooling, so we can give clients what they need, not necessarily what’s popular or certifiable.

More than 100 organizations have relied on our guidance.

Our promise to you

We are professional, consistent, flexible, and reliable.

We are responsive in our interactions and responsible in our actions.

We will get results respectfully and collaboratively.

We will maximize your investment’s value by minimizing the risk and the time to achieving your goals.

Why you’re in good hands with us

We’ll help you create a healthy environment that really works. You won’t hear us parroting one-size-fits-none solutions. We’re not a generalist management consultancy, single-framework coaches, trend-chasers, or a purveyor of certifications. Everyone we assign to your engagement is an expert who is also a continuous learner and active contributor in the product development and leadership space. Gil Broza, for example, has been a three-time track chair at the largest global annual conference on agility.

We empower you to make your best choices. You’ll live with the results of your actions, so we don’t prescribe or impose. Instead, we advise, coach, inform, suggest, challenge, and support as needed.

We are pragmatic. We don’t assign coaches who never give you answers, consultants who solve everything with Scrum (or SAFe, or Kanban), or anyone who thinks there can be “best practices” in contextual and complex product development. We’ll help you create a way of working that’s truly fit for purpose.

We have the expertise for charting the path, preparing the people, and optimizing the journey. You’ll get full service from us on all dimensions: system, teams, leadership, culture, product, development, planning. We have the respect and ears of developers, executives, and business people alike.

We’ll tailor our style to the situation. Your people will respond best to a custom mix of “done by you” (facilitation), “done for you” (consulting), and “done with you” (training and coaching). We’ll work accordingly.

Your teams will keep delivering all along the journey. Clearly, work doesn’t stop, and your obligations still stand as the teams learn better ways. Our strategies and approaches integrate into your reality.

You’ll have access to Gil, from the beginning, for as long as you need. No bait-and-switch, no handing you off to a contractor mid-way.

Consistently, our clients have delivered valuable results faster, boosted their productivity, and increased their teams’ engagement. They are not looking back. Would you like to partner with us and enjoy the same results?
