'This book is truly a great addition to any Agile coach's library. If you are an aspiring agile coach this is a must-read.'- Ahmed Sidky, Ph.D. President of the International Consortium for Agile (ICAgile)
With the current dire shortage of real agile coaches, we need more than just superficial knowledge – we need experts. Many books merely describe agile theory, methods, and processes but for a successful agile coach, having a mental model of their own is crucial.
Successful agile coaches see the organization as a system and assume the role of a system developer. They facilitate an organic process that breaks through old patterns, paving the way for the agile organization. All this is done according to the system approach, built up based on the mental model and the meaning assigned to it by the people who are part of the system.
This book does not purport to change you and prescribe what you should or should not do. This book describes in detail the beliefs and steps with which you can become a successful agile coach, while staying true to yourself. I hope you enjoy reading this book!
