Background.
The challenge for managers and leaders in an agile environment is to grow. It is to take on board the spirit of agile and find ways to continuously improve in the right direction for the organization that fits its context.
Coaching plays a prominent role in this, but before that can begin, new knowledge needs to be acquired, not only on the processes but also (and more importantly) on the mindset shifts required.
This course has been designed from the ground up based on the real world, field experience and research. The course leaves a lot of the process to one side, focuses profoundly, and intends to have leaders and managers set themselves up for their coaching journey by learning about and experiencing through exercises and playing their fundamental mindset shifts.
