Agile Team Coaches
Agile team coaches help individual teams implement and improve Agile practices. Typically, these coaches have experience playing multiple Agile roles and can articulate the business value of specific practices. Agile coaches use diplomacy and sharp observation to read organizations and reorganize teams accordingly.
Senior Agile Coaches
Senior Agile coaches support multiple teams and the synapses between them. They ensure that appropriate technical environments and team knowledge are in place. Senior Agile coaches generally combine classic Agile coaching practices with a specialized skill set in one area, such as product or project management, technical practices, or user experience.
Agile Technical Coaches
They have current programming skills, allowing them to pair with your team. They also have experience with Test Driven Development (TDD), refactoring, emergent design, software configuration management, and continuous integration.
Enterprise Agile Coaches
Enterprise Agile coaches provide support when multiple lines of business transition to Agile together. They work with senior management, senior architects, testing leaders, and IT infrastructure leaders to ensure a smooth transition. These coaches typically have extensive experience working with senior leadership, an understanding of all major technical roles, and superior systems thinking and planning skills.
Tenure
Our coaches typically have more than 10 years of experience working in Agile environments and have managed Agile Transformations for multiple companies.

We offer yearly Agile subscription services that provide flexible blocks of set coaching sessions each quarter. These packages also include special webinars, training materials, and remote mentoring services.
