Does this sound familiar?

  • Agile Methoden sind eingeführt, aber die erwarteten Ergebnisse bleiben aus.
  • Dailys fühlen sich nach Pflicht an, nicht nach echtem Fortschritt.
  • Rollen zwischen Entscheidern, Product Ownern und Scrum Mastern sind unklar.
  • Retrospektiven enden folgenlos — die gleichen Probleme kommen wieder.

What it's about

Get agile methods working — not as a training course, but as coaching on the job in the real team context. Scrum, Kanban, Design Thinking, and OKR are introduced and anchored where they are actually needed. For teams that have to deliver under uncertainty and need more than waterfall planning. Three formats cover different escalation stages: from methods coaching in the team to systemic organizational work to 90-minute sparring sessions for coaches themselves.

Who it's for

  • Teams that want to introduce agile methods with experienced guidance
  • Organizations where agile routines are in place but expected results are not materializing
  • Leaders who value an honest outside perspective on dysfunctions
  • Agile coaches and change agents seeking sparring at eye level

Three formats, one logic

The right intensity for your context. Escalation stages of the same approach.

Agile Coaching

4–8 Weeks

Introduce, anchor, and get methods running.

Right when …

  • Team is new to agile and needs a structured entry point
  • Scrum or Kanban are introduced, but routines don't take hold
  • Roles are unclear, prioritization remains gut-feel

What you take away

  • Functional agile practice in daily team work
  • Clear roles and decision paths
  • Running sprint cycles with effective retrospectives

Agile Coaching+

3–6 Months

When the standard playbook is no longer enough.

Right when …

  • Agile methods are running, but impact is missing
  • Problems lie not in the team, but in the organization
  • Standard frameworks fail at interfaces and decision patterns

What you take away

  • Systemic diagnosis instead of treating symptoms
  • Interventions at root causes, not at symptoms
  • Sustainable anchoring through organizational design and culture work

Sparring

90 Min

Confidential thinking space for coaches and change leads.

Right when …

  • Agile coaches who need personal reflection
  • Change agents facing obstacles who seek fresh perspectives
  • Leaders who want to think through decisions without political pressure

What you take away

  • Clarity about the current challenge
  • New perspectives and options
  • Concrete next steps without commitment

Process

  1. Agile Foundation — values, principles, framework selection, role clarification
  2. Practice events and routines — sprint cycles, planning, reviews, retrospectives
  3. Coaching on the job — direct participation in sprint events, role coaching
  4. Consolidation and handover — introduce metrics, establish independent practice

Outcome

  • Functional agile methods that the team actually uses
  • Clear accountabilities — who decides what
  • Running sprint cycles with planning, review, and retrospective
  • Tools for continuous improvement
  • With Coaching+: Systemic patterns visible, interventions at root causes

Duration 90 Min to 6 Months (depending on format)
Participants 1 person (sparring) to whole teams/organizational units

Note Methods: Scrum, Kanban, Design Thinking, OKR, Cynefin, Systems Theory

Methods & Concepts

Agile Manifesto
Vier Werte und zwölf Prinzipien, die den Kern agilen Arbeitens definieren. Nicht als Dogma, sondern als Kompass für Entscheidungen unter Unsicherheit.
Retrospektive
Strukturiertes Format zur Reflexion: Was lief gut, was nicht, was ändern wir? Der wichtigste Mechanismus für kontinuierliche Verbesserung im Team.
OKR
Objectives & Key Results — Zielsystem, das strategische Richtung mit messbaren Ergebnissen verbindet. Quartalsweise, transparent, anpassbar.
WIP-Limit
Begrenzung der gleichzeitig laufenden Arbeit. Erzwingt Fokus, macht Engpässe sichtbar und verbessert den Durchsatz.
Inspect & Adapt
Das Grundprinzip agiler Steuerung: Regelmäßig prüfen, was passiert — und daraus Konsequenzen ziehen. Kein starrer Plan, sondern lernender Rhythmus.
