- + Systemic perspectiveUnderstanding organisational dynamics and interdependencies
- + Complexity navigationCynefin, Blue/Red model – reading the context correctly
- + Lasting embedment3–6 months of support until it truly sticks
Why "more" is sometimes necessary
Classic agile coaching introduces methods and gets teams moving. That works – as long as the root causes are methodological. But what if they run deeper?
Agile Coaching helps when …
- ✓ Teams want to learn and practise agile methods
- ✓ Roles and events are unclear
- ✓ A team needs to start working in sprint cycles
- ✓ Retrospectives and reviews need to improve
Agile Coaching+ is needed when …
- + Results fail to materialise despite Scrum and Kanban
- + The problems lie not in the team but in the system
- + Departmental boundaries, silos or leadership culture are blocking progress
- + Change needs to be embedded sustainably – over months
Agile Coaching+ is right for you if …
- … you're already using agile methods, but the expected impact isn't materialising – despite functioning sprint cycles.
- … the problems are not in the team but in the Organisation — silos, unclear decision paths, conflicting goals.
- … you want to embed change for good — not just a training, but a real shift in how you work together.
- … you need someone who says honestly what he sees — even when it is uncomfortable.
What you'll take away
- Agile fundamentals that hold — roles, events, metrics
- Visible collaboration patterns and what they cause
- An understanding of organisational dynamics beyond team level
- Interventions that address root causes – not symptoms
- A team that can spot and address its own anti-patterns
Lay the foundation, gain depth, embed impact
Agile foundation
Establishing the fundamentals (weeks 1–3)
- Taking stock: where do you stand with agile? What's working, what isn't?
- Introducing or strengthening agile methods: Scrum, Kanban, OKR
- Clarifying roles: decision-makers, coordinators, stakeholders
- Setting up sprint cycles: planning, daily, review, retrospective
- Definition of done, working agreements, team commitments
Systemic diagnosis
Surfacing patterns and dynamics (weeks 3–6)
- Systemic observation: how does the organisation really work?
- Cynefin mapping: complex, complicated or chaotic — and what that means for your approach
- Blue/red model: where do you need structure, where flexibility?
- Anti-pattern analysis: identifying recurring dysfunctions
- Stakeholder mapping and influence dynamics
Targeted intervention
Addressing root causes, not symptoms (weeks 6–16)
- Coaching on the job: support in sprint events and everyday work
- Organisational design input: team boundaries, decision paths, communication structures
- Leadership sparring: clarifying the role in an agile context
- Experiment cycles: form hypotheses, test them, learn
- Team reflections with a systemic focus
Sustainable embedment
Making myself redundant (weeks 16–24)
- Handing over tools for self-reflection and continuous improvement
- Enabling internal multipliers
- Reducing coaching intensity as autonomy grows
- Closing retrospective: what has changed? What is still needed?
- A recommendation for next steps — honest, not revenue-driven
What Coaching+ additionally draws on
Systems theory & organisational design
Widening the view: understanding not just the team but the organisation as a whole — structures, decision paths, interdependencies.
Cynefin & complexity research
Reading the context correctly. Not every problem needs the same solution — Cynefin helps decide when expertise is called for and when an experiment is.
Anti-pattern diagnosis
Spotting and naming recurring dysfunctions — with the anti-pattern framework built from over 100 team engagements.
More than methods
Agile Coaching+ verbindet agile Praxis mit systemischem Denken. Die Grundlage: über 10 Jahre Coaching-Erfahrung, Ausbildungen in Systemischem Coaching (ICO Institut), Organisationsdesign (intrinsify), Scrum, Kanban, OKR, Design Thinking – und die Erkenntnis, dass Frameworks allein selten reichen.
