What I Do

Scrum Master

The responsibilities of this role include: Clearing obstacles. Establishing an environment where the team can be effective.

Coaching

Coaching is all about assisting people to clarify and put in their best efforts in order to achieve a target set. It is considered a co-creative process wherein a Coach works with people who have already achieved some degree of success but their success is stagnant. The Coach helps them to move forward by attaining higher performance. He takes an individual into his own inner wisdom. Lots of effective listening, support and facilitation of personal development goes into the process of Coaching along with dynamic interaction with people to get wondrous results. The focus of coaching is for a longer span of time.

Agile Consulting

Consulting is always about offering expertise, analysis and recommendations. It gives people an idea on how to alleviate a certain problem. Consultants use their wisdom to advise people the solutions which leaves them motivated. The primary job is to identify a problem and recommend specific solutions to it. The focus of consulting is short-term which is mostly tactically oriented. Many consultants work as freelancers and give advice to their clients when needed.

Training
