We finally realized what Coaching looks like and feels like, versus just being trained. Evolve helped teams identify and solve their own problems versus doing it for them.

Why we are different

We have deep knowledge and understanding of agility. Think of us as the “Indiana Jones” of Agile, ready to cut and slash through whatever challenges are presented to us. We recognize that “being” agile has to be in the service of your larger organization’s purpose.

When our clients want to evolve or go beyond the basics, we are the experts they call. Our deep experience and systems thinking perspective enable us to guide your transformational journey. And we do it in a way that grows your organizational capability to lead the change even when we are no longer there. We get the most joy through enabling our clients to own their transformation.

We partner with experienced Agile coaches & trainers who we have a shared history of working with. Together we align on our shared values and approaches to agile transformations. Our team-based approach works for clients because they get access to a diversity of experts and proven practitioners.

The post explains a systems thinking approach for team learning, emphasizing mental models, curiosity over knowledge accumulation, and the importance of actionability.

The method values facilitation, engagement, and the realization that learning is a continuous, shared process within a team’s system.

Decide how you decide

Decide how you decide

Effective team decisions depend on how they’re made and should foster unity post-choice. Not pre-setting decision procedures can cause confusion and frustration.
