Description
Weekly panel of agilists discussing real world issues and considerations encountered during Agility Transformations. This is a raw, colorful group that strive to have hard hitting discussions that may serve to open your mind to different views and solutions. Our typical group of panelists consist of Paulie Skaja, Jonathan Howell, Allen Jellas and Mathijs Schilder. We met during our ICAgile Enterprise Agility training with The Agile Company and found our conversations during breakout sessions so compelling we started this podcast.

Allen Jellas, Jonathan Howell and I discuss the importance of Psychological Safety within Agile and Agility Transformations. The discussion covers approaches to create it, within the teams and organizations we have worked in. We also cover challenges to maintaining it and just how important self awareness is in maintaining it.
Just what we as Agile Coaches, a Change Agent or Change Catalyst? Maybe we are both but what is the difference and how does that change our coaching stance.
In this episode Jonathan Howell, Allen Jellas and I discuss the ability for Agile Coaches to help organizations address challenging issues by taking a bold stance. We explore whether the difference between an internal and external Agile Coach change the level of boldness. We explore our presence when we need to bold and what tools we may leverage in taking on challenges.
As a follow-on to our previous podcast of Women in Agile we discuss our approach to integrating diversity and inclusion within our teams. Over the course of the last year diversity and inclusion have become hot button issues. Do we take a direct or indirect approach, how to we inititate discussions on the topic and so on. Panel for the discussion is Paulie Skaja, Jonathan Howell, Allen Jellas and myself.
During this episode we explore the impact of gender in the lives of our panelists and what actions can we as agilists take to address this critical issue. This is a hot button issue and the language is colorful at times so it is not for all audiences.
This is a short introduction to the perspective and purpose of the Agile Gardeners. Here I explain why we believe the analogy of a garden works for an Agile Transformation and what we see as the potential value. We hope these episodes fill a need for you as they certainly have for us.
During this episode we discuss a perceived resistance to measure the impact and value that Agile Coaches bring to organization through the delivery of an Agile Tranformation. Is this real or is it an indicator of reluctance to be transparent when we do measure? What are the options and what is the direction forward?
