Coaching

Coaches will identify their coaching styles and learn how to most effectively apply that style to create high-performing teams.

Feedback

Coaches will develop their understanding of eliciting meaningful feedback from teams and applying it to continuous improvement. They will learn new retrospective formats and techniques for creating a psychologically safe environment.

Our Approach to  Scrum Masters

To learn and adapt together it is important that all relevant levels of the organisation participate in the same training, as the realisations are profound. All organisations are different in terms of which ways of working are effective for them. Our training will help your people explore those options in an environment within which it is safe to fail.

A Professional Scrum Master is more than just a Scrum Master. They are a lean-agile practitioner that provides business, technical, and leadership mastery to help the Team and the Organisation be as effective as psoible.
