Ebook: Creating Agile Organizations: A Systemic Approach

Coaching Agile Organizations helps Scrum Masters leverage Scrum to become effective change agents, and move from coaching a single team to coaching the entire organization. Drawing on extensive experience scaling Scrum at multiple companies worldwide, Cesario Ramos and Ilia Pavlichenko address the unique challenges Scrum Masters encounter when adopting Scrum at the organizational level, and working on organizational design for large products that engage multiple teams across departments. After reviewing the principles, history, and essential roles of the Professional Scrum Master, Cesario and Pavlichenko present concrete tools for facilitating, coaching, and teaching Scrum in the enterprise, from facilitating successful meetings to asking more powerful questions. You'll find Product Definition Guides to help plan your product and project; Feature Heat Maps for defining your team and organizational structures; and much more. Everything's product- and technology-independent, so you can use these tools and techniques in any large environment -- solving or avoiding the specific problems that arise when organizations scale Scrum.
