Improve your coaching skills as a agile professional

By

You are an agile coach, scrum master or agile people professional, you understand the agile way of working. You might be good with using games, charts, scribing and a multitude of ideas and then you have to implement it with people!

Improve your Agility as coach, scrum master and people professional through a reflective learning partnership.

Since starting my accreditation to become a coaching supervisor with the EMCC I have found a better way of describing this: a learning partnership based on a reflective practice.

The word supervision can conjure up a larger than life person, leaning over your shoulder and maybe full of air!

or it can
be SUPER VISION

This session is based on mindfulness and reflective inquiry to improve how we coach.

I’m offering my considerable experience as a coach, mindfulness expert, and my years of reflective inquiry to the agile community.

Having a safe and confidential space to reflect on your clients or teams which is not connected to your workspace allows you to get perspective on the different relationship in coaching.

It can help you develop both professionally and personally, help you stay focused and non-judgemental, resolve ethical issues and deal with boundary management.

In this experiential group coaching online session we will reflect on our approaches, processes and explore what needs to be developed.

You are expected to be able to share your emotion, be able to reflect on your own experience and welcome constructive feedback.

Although giving advice and sharing tools/techniques is helpful to any coach, this workshop will not focus on this.

Please make sure you understand that this is an experienced based workshop where we you are actively encouraged to share.

Adding the Element of Empathy When Scaling Enterprise Agility

Empathy When Scaling Enterprise Agility

When calculating the cost of failed agile growth, consideration ought to go beyond lost time, wasted resources and withered productivity. Greater loss in my view are hope destroyed, trust shattered, missed compassion and a chance to bring stability among teams.

According to coauthors Tom Rath and Conchie (Strength Based Leadership) these are the top 4 specific emotional needs that individuals (read ‘followers’) want to experience with their leaders if they are to feel both engaged and connected to their communities, organizations or groups. The result is more involvement with the associated community. How, you may ask?

Join me on 19-Feb-2021 between 10:00 and 11:00 am EAT as we explore the topic of Enterprise Agile Scalability and Empathy

How to use Self Determination Theory to increase ownership in self-organizing teams.

By

In this workshop you will learn how to increase motivation and ownership in self-organizing teams by applying Self Determination Theory to fulfill needs of autonomy, competence and connection.

For every leader, manager, scrummaster, product owner who wants to get things done in a self-managing team: How do you motivate your employees to take ownership, responsibility and initiative?

The self-determination theory explains it is not about the quantity of motivation, but about the quality of motivation. Motivating employees with rewards or fear of punishment will backfire. Telling people what to do isn’t self-management. So WHAT are you supposed to do?

In this workshop you will learn how to apply Self-Determination Theory to fulfill the three core needs for intrinsic (or autonomous) motivation. With this, you can:

– Create conditions for co-creation.
– Increase ownership in self-managing teams.
– Give feedback that motivates.
– Get things done without command and control.

After a short talk we will have a brainstorm and some role play to practice!

How to drive Continuous Improvement with the 5 Critical Success Factors for Coaching

By

Any Agile practitioner knows the importance of Continuous Improvement. Only when we keep learning, we can stay agile and adapt to the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) world. But how do you keep learning? Or, perhaps more importantly, how do you boost the learning capacity of others?

Whether you’re helping people, teams or organizations, the 5 Critical Success Factors (5CSF) for Coaching can help. The 5 Critical Success Factors are:

1. Context
2. Scale
3. Ownership
4. Iceberg
5. Here & Now

In this workshop, you will learn to apply these factors before, during and after your interventions to boost the learning capacity and drive continuous improvement.

This will be a interactive workshop: Please bring your own case about an individual person, team or organisation to share!

The 5 Critical Success Factors is a metamodel for coaching developed by Marijke Lingsma and Ger van Doorn. I have been trained as a Professional Coach in this method, and in this workshop I will teach how you can use this model to drive continuous improvement.
