The Agile Coach is a relatively new role; it is not very well defined and often overrated.

From the first concept of ‘coach’ introduced in Extreme Programming (XP) which was more of a system architect to the Scrum Master in the service of the Team and the organization, the role morphed in many organizations to a pure consulting role.

Most modern Agile frameworks are created as empirical approaches based on a very simple principle: fail fast, learn faster.

1. What is the role of an Agile Coach in an Agile transformation?
2. What skills and experience are required to add value to the process?

These questions among others will be addressed in this webinar.

In this webinar Stelian Roman (LinkedIn profile) presents his 20+ years’ experience in implementing Agile for software teams and later his experience as a Project Manager and Scrum Master working with Agile Coaches.

As organizations pursue their strategic goals, they likely maintain a project portfolio that is a mix of stable, definable projects built on proven procedures in addition to the more risky and undefined projects that are meant to create new products, services, or capabilities.

Project managers who can deliver results in an iterative fashion, with a high level of stakeholder involvement and increased customer feedback loops, are the first choice for these project assignments.  That is because they demonstrate facility with the new tools of the agile project manager.

Learning points covered in this webinar include:

• Picking the right methodology for the job
• Choosing what skills and relationships to enhance
• Understanding how project planning, tracking, and team management work in these hybrid settings

In the systems development traditions of the past, most people adhered to the concept that development should be done in discrete phases.

These were typically sequential: analysis, design, implementation, and testing, often referred to as “the waterfall”.

Agile processes reject this notion almost entirely, and so one question that often arises is: if there is no design “phase”, when does design happen?

Is there a role for design in an agile process?

In this webinar Scott Bain (LinkedIn profile) will address this question and introduce the concept of an “emergent” design process.

This will be an overview, with no technical knowledge or experience required.
