Advisory Consulting and Coaching
Whether at the team, division, or organizational level, implementing agile practices and capabilities to achieve business results can be accelerated when combining advisory consulting and coaching with assessments and training.
- Advisory Consulting: We first build a comprehensive understanding of the current state that considers many factors such as scale, organizational design, sponsorship, maturity, culture and business goals. We can support enterprise deployments of any size and will recommend approaches in consideration of tradeoffs that have proven to catalyze transformative behaviors and deliver results.
- Agile and Scrum Coaching: Our coaching solutions nurture and reinforce good practice on current work efforts. As an alternative to or as reinforcement of training, coaching is beneficial at all levels within the organization. Our experienced coaches will work with both individuals and teams to apply new skills, to build knowledge and expertise, reduce risk and accelerate adoption.
