Description
Regd. Education ProviderAn Agile coach serves as a catalyst to the agile team, facilitating agile thinking and practices and empowering the team to reach their goals through improved team practices. By providing focussed guidance, the coach enhances awareness of the business goals and objectives and acts as a teacher, a facilitator, mentor, team builder and planner all at once. The Agile coach can foster a culture of agile-lean thinking and usher in positive change by changing the organizational culture and redefining the work paradigm to reflect an agile mindset.
