What is an Agile Coach?
An Agile Coach is a seasoned professional who acts as a guiding beacon for organisations transitioning to or already practicing Agile methodologies. They are adept at fostering a culture of collaboration, adaptability, and continuous improvement within teams and across the organisation. Agile Coaches possess a unique blend of expertise in Agile frameworks such as Scrum, Kanban, or Lean, coupled with strong interpersonal skills and leadership capabilities.
“Flow is the movement and delivery of customer value through a process. In knowledge work, our whole reason for existence is to deliver value to the customer. Therefore, it stands to reason that our whole process should be oriented around optimizing flow.” – Daniel Vacanti in Actionable Agile Metrics for Predictability
