Agile Coaching Sense and Sensibility...
Not so long ago, I was having a conversation with a colleague about an Agile team that I was coaching. I was describing my observations and thoughts about the team’s dynamic and why this was causing stress for them. I then asked my colleague, “Does that make sense?”. I had hoped for insight, inspiration or a “coach the coach” moment. The response I got was not what I expected. I received a 10-minute soliloquy on the difference between the questions, “Does that make sense?” vs. “Do you understand?”
