The Makings of a Great Agile Coach
Show Highlights
In this episode, I visit with
Damon Poole, who has provided Agile coaching to countless people at some very recognizable companies. He opened up about his journey in Agile, as well as what led up to publishing, “Professional Coaching for Agilists: Accelerating Agile Adoption,” with Gillian Lee (available at
InformIT as well as
other places you’d expect).
Key Takeaways
- Effective coaching helps people move forward when they are stuck.
- Teams who are coached do move faster.
- Great coaches have qualities that make for great humans. No one embodies all of them, but you work on building better relationships on your teams and in your personal life.
