What does it mean, really, to be an agile coach? What does that mean for me? What else must I acquire? What must I let go? These are the core questions addressed in Coaching Agile Teams. The answers come from agile frameworks themselves and from the allied disciplines that naturally supplement the agile coach's toolkit, such as facilitation, conflict mediation, collaboration, work/life coaching, and teaching. In this book, each chapter unfolds to bring you mindsets and tools from these disciplines and others so that you can incorporate them in your coaching. Under the artful hand of Lyssa Adkins, the answers to these questions become a provocative treatise that enables agile coaches to fully understand their role with simple, practical advice on how to get there.
