What’s the Problem?“When I hire an agile coach, I don’t know what I’m getting. Everyone calls themselves a coach.”

“My company doesn’t see agile coaching as a serious role but the situations agile puts me in feel serious. I don’t always know how to deal with them.”

“I know agile like the back of my hand, but I run into some clients who just don’t seem to get it. How can I help them get it?”

“I have an agile coach, but I’m not sure what they’re supposed to do. What good are they?”
