GET THE BOOK

Coaching Agile Teams is the must-have reference that has sold over 80,000 copies and been translated into more than a dozen languages. Available as a book, ebook and audiobook narrated by Lyssa herself. It’s the provocative and practical companion for anyone doing the work of agile coaching.

Let Coaching Agile Teams take you on a tour of the inner world of becoming an excellent agile coach. As you read it, notice the mountainous terrain of how an agile coach observes teams and people, frames thoughts about those observations, and processes personal biases and emotions. Pay attention as the book takes you to the wide-open plains of deciding to put observations and reflections into action (or non-action) in the best service of agile teams in the unending quest to be better than we are today.

This book offers one person’s approach, my approach, to building high-performance agile teams. It will not tell you “the way.” Rather, through my journey, it will tell you one good way that will help you find your own path as a coach. I have used this pattern and the ideas in this book successfully while coaching many aspiring agile coaches, with the result that each coach found their path and, then, their unique voice.

WOMEN IN AGILE PODCAST

In lieu of writing a 2nd edition of Coaching Agile Teams Lyssa chose to record a podcast series. On the Women in Agile podcast, Leslie Morse and Lyssa unpack the journey of creating the Coaching Agile Teams audiobook, explore topics that have advanced since the book was originally published, and shine light on the thought leaders advancing the work of agile coaching today.
