AgileSoCal Meeting - Wednesday, July 19th, 5:00 PM Pacific
POSTPONED - stay tuned for our rescheduled date.
Crossing the Chasm: From Scrum master to Agile Coach with Michael Wollin and Scott Forgey
As agile coaches we all like to train up the teams and create internal coaches so that we can leave. Michael Wollin and Scott Forgey have figured out a few things to prevent those newly minted coaches from falling on their faces as they exit.
In this month's session they will discuss the breadth and depth of that journey, and present a high-level pathway to team and enterprise coaching. They will address the full spectrum of attendees, from novice and junior to very senior, and anticipate that everyone will learn something new.
Your Presenters:
Michael Wollin is a Scrum Alliance (CEC) Certified Enterprise Agile Coach (one of only 130 in the world) with decades of experience in the IT, Medical Device, and Broadcast Television industries. He works with business and academic clients to accelerate human and organizational potential. Leveraging his business acumen and his deep technical, human, and organizational skills, he helps companies respond faster and more effectively to change in the marketplace. He offers experiential training workshops and on-site embedded coaching to clients seeking new ways to organize themselves so they can adapt quickly and painlessly to change and deal effectively with unanticipated constraints.
