What does a Scrum Master do all day? Run events and facilitate meetings? The Scrum Master role has evolved greatly over the last 20 years and now encompasses leadership, coaching, and growing agility through Scrum.
All teams go through it. It’s the natural stage where the spark of fun has given way to the daily trudge of delivery of work. Here’s how to bring the zing back.
Why do traditional, waterfall style projects fail? Some claim its a requirements problem and point to the need for more planning, user research, and design. The truth is we’re not looking at the problem the right way and complex environments require a different way to collecting information and delivering using that knowledge.
To be effective, agile coaches require deep, applied expertise and experience across multiple organisations, multiple projects and industries. As the organsiation scales, the Agile Coaching Development Pathway shows the focus of the role as it scales to more responsibilities beyond being a coach of a single team and provides guidance on what knowledge and experience is required to be an Enterprise Coach.
Sharing patterns and practices and driving consistency across the organisation is key to building an organsiationational capability however eventually when we as external consultanst leave, there is always the risk that the organisation will just spring back to their old ways of working. So we set up ZXM Agile Academy to build enduring internal capability.
Agile delivers significant benefits over traditional ways of working, but how do you know when you’re agile? How do you use a metrics-driven approach to create repeatability, consistency, and scalability of agile capability across the enterprise? Agile IQ is the key.
