About the Book

Coach Individuals, Teams, and Organizations to Greater Success with Agile

As Agilists work to increase an organization's Agility, they will run into major obstacles with mindset shifts, moving to self-organization, and organizational adoption. Over the past decade, more Agilists have been using Professional Coaching to help individuals, teams, and the organization as a whole uncover these obstacles and move forward faster.

In Professional Coaching for Agilists, Damon Poole and Gillian Lee draw on their experience with thousands of Agile coaches and practitioners to show you how to use Professional Coaching to accelerate your Agile adoption. The authors' approach of "learning by doing" teaches by using well-honed exercises, real-life stories, and example coaching conversations.

This guide is framework-independent and has been designed for Agile Coaches, Scrum Masters, and any Agilist involved in Agile adoption. It teaches high-value coaching skills, step by step, from "coaching by objective" to managing mutually successful engagements.

  • Leverage coaching to create aha moments that lead to real change
  • Learn dozens of coaching techniques and more than a hundred powerful questions
  • Help people uncover blind spots and assess their opportunities more clearly
  • Offer your expertise while maintaining your coaching mindset
  • Help people improve performance by connecting them with their values, goals, and strengths
  • Blend professional coaching with group facilitation so both work better
  • Become a great coach by making coaching a natural extension of who you are
