Principal Advisor
Kevin Taylor
Fractional Advisor · Austin, Texas
Kevin brings over two decades of international experience across customer success, organizational design, agile transformation, and human resources — working with technology companies, multinationals, and growth-stage businesses across the United States, Singapore, and Southeast Asia.
Kevin holds a Master of Project Management from the University of Adelaide — completed at Ngee Ann Academy in Singapore — alongside a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Science from San Jose State University.
His credential stack spans international HR (SPHRi, SHRM-CP), project execution (PMP), enterprise agile delivery (SAFe SPC 6, ICP-ACC, ICP-AHR, CSP), and the full Scrum Alliance progression — making him one of a small number of practitioners who operate credibly across all three disciplines simultaneously.
THE WORK
Four things. Done well.
Every engagement — regardless of format — comes back to the same four operating problems. These are the pillars of Armadillo Advisory.
Clarifying decision rights
Who decides what — and who actually does? When that's unclear, everything slows down or gets decided twice.
Simplifying communication flows
The right information reaching the right people at the right time. Not more communication — better communication.
Redesigning meeting cadence
Meetings that produce decisions, not just updates. A nested rhythm that connects daily work to quarterly strategy.
Aligning teams around execution
Shared understanding of what good looks like — and feedback loops that surface misalignment before it becomes a crisis.
My client raved about Kevin and valued his consulting advice, work ethic and strategic thinking. This contributed directly to a 6-month extension to my contract with this client. Kevin made me and our boutique consulting firm look good and was one of my very best hires.
