Part 1: Training
The focus of the first day is mainly on Personal Coaching techniques and the understanding of Systemic Coaching. The Goal is to expose people to the difference between "coaching" a sport team and coaching individuals by helping them to unlock their potential and achieve their own goals.
The focus of the second day is on understanding the foundation of a Team, and realizing how many more factors we have to consider when coaching teams; most of those factors are not under our control but we can influence the environment in which the teams work, so that they will be able to change most of their constraints, if really empowered to do so. The rest of the days focus on introducing the idea of Facilitation as a more structured and comprehensive matter than just running stand-ups.
- Team performance models
- Observation techniques
- Facilitation techniques
- Using curiosity and keywords in a coaching conversation
- Levels of listening
- How to structure a coaching conversation
- Strategies to form powerful questions
- Facilitation of problem solving
By the end of the two days, you will build your own coaching structure that you will go and use with your team in the weeks until the next training days.
Part 2: Practice
During the period of time between day 2 and day 3, you will practice what you have learned, share knowledge with your peers in learning groups, and revise your coaching structure based on your learnings. You will also have a one-on-one coaching conversation with one of the agile42 coaches that are coaching your company during the transition. The purpose of this conversation is to provide you with as much help as possible in developing as an agile coach. The agile42 coaches will, of course, also give you on-the-job coaching when needed.
We encourage you to video record yourself in some of the coaching you are doing in this period of time to help you observe your own practice and learn from that. It is optional for you to share this with anyone.
Part 3: Workshop
Day 3 is a workshop day, where we reflect on the lessons and expand and practice on the things you and your peers found challenging.On day 4 we add more new tools to your toolbox. Those include:
- Visual Management
- Conflict resolution
- Non-violent communication
- Motivation of teams
- Bridging questions for team coaching
- The 5D team coaching approach
- Team-building techniques
We end day 4 by setting learning objectives for the coming time period.
Part 4: Practice
In the period between day 4 and day 5, you will again practice all you learned, meet with your peers to share experiences and have a one-on-one coaching conversation with an agile42 coach.
Part 5: Workshop
Final workshop for sharing experience and new ideas, as well as providing some further advise about coaching. We will focus in particular on the importance of the awareness of the coaching role and the way one can relate it to the coaching conversation, and on understanding how to use facilitation skills to drive a session toward its goal.
