MentorNotMonitor

Context

Scrum masters, project managers, Agile coaches, team leads all need someone to talk to. How do we provide that someone?

Forces

  • Continuous change in the organisation, forces folks driving it, to question themselves and seek answers
  • Being so close to the action, desire to simply record and report.
  • Work based cummunication tends to be very formalised, and rigid in structure ( conway's law in action )
  • Danger of chinese whispers, if "loose lips sink ships", mentality does not pervail.
  • Excessive use of KPI's ( Key Performance Indicators ). Too many too often.

Solution

Provide a Mentor, who can have weekly hourly chats with their hosts. These are inteded to be 1 on 1, and take the form of infromal chats, with the aim of supporting the host and keeping them on track.
