Agile Coaches: You get what you ask for
I love being an agile coach. However, there is so much misinformation out there about what an agile coach is, what they do, and how they do it. This talk takes a look at common job descriptions for Agile Coaches. I'll talk about what they mean and how an agile coach can approach an interview with the knowledge of what the company thinks they want vs. what you should be bringing them.
Outline/Structure of the Presentation
This will be a series of sticky notes in mural with text taken from the actual job descriptions that I will talk about.
This will end with a Q&A. I'll ask people to share questions and things they've seen that I may have missed.
Learning Outcome
Understand how to translate what a job description is asking for
Learn strategies to approach helping a company understand what they should be asking for.

LAST is Australia's cross-functional conference. Rather than retreat to our trade and talk among our peers-in practice we want LAST to be a place where people can learn about the holistic process of product and service development, growing organisations, boosting our own skills and careers and thinking about how what we do works with wider society.
This conference is also about learning and sharing with our colleagues. Over the years we have come to value the following things;
- Interactive sessions over presentations
- Specific tools and techniques over general frameworks
- Learning from mistakes and failures over sharing sanitised success stories
- Diversity of content over following industry best practices
- Evidence based approaches over novel ideas
That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.
