SciPlay Career Growth & Development

What new skill or role did you want to learn? Why was this important to you?
As the head of monetization, understanding the Scrum framework has been essential for fostering alignment and clear communication across the board. We’re a lean team in the gaming industry, and learning this framework has empowered me to collaborate more effectively, not by running sprints myself but by better engaging with our product and tech partners.

I wanted to speak the same language, ask the right questions and spot where friction was hiding. Being able to connect the dots between business needs and delivery processes makes me a better problem-solver and makes my team more effective.

How did your employer help support this time of learning and professional development?
My boss encouraged me to clear space in my calendar to fully engage with it, which is deeply appreciated.

SciPlay also created a culture where this type of professional growth is seen as essential, not optional. I was able to bring back insights and immediately apply them in how we plan, prioritize and interface with our cross-functional partners — making our workflows smoother and our collaborations more productive.

What was the outcome of this experience? How did it impact your future growth in your profession?
This experience transformed the way I lead and collaborate. By learning to connect Kanban-based planning with Scrum-based delivery, I’ve developed a more strategic approach to aligning cross-functional teams. It fosters autonomy while maintaining a clear focus on outcomes.

It’s made me a more credible voice in cross-functional rooms — able to bridge business goals with agile realities. I’ve become more confident in identifying blockers early, setting smarter priorities and coaching my team to work seamlessly with our tech partners.
