Agile Coaching as an activity, not as a role

I just released the version 4.2 of the book “The Agile Coaching DNA” (https://leanpub.com/TheAgileCoachingDNA). In this version, I’m presenting a new chapter about “Agile Coaching as an activity, not as a role”.

My aim with this chapter is to raise the awareness regarding when, to whom, for how long, and how much the work of Agile Coaching is needed. It’s an essential reflection because your company may not require intense use of Agile Coaching.

The critical questions in this new chapter are:
- Do we need a full-time role?
- How can we assure people is doing Agile in the right way if the Agile Coach is not present every day for the team?
- Who takes responsibility for implementing the improvements?
- How to avoid the kiss of death?
- How about democratising the activity of Agile Coaching? Is it possible?

The central idea of this chapter is a reminder for the moments when you’re acting as an Agile Coach. It is essential to think of Agile Coaching as an activity rather than a role. Others people can perform small and different portions of Agile Coaching when is necessary, and to whom is needed.

I would love to hear your option/thoughts regarding this topic.
