Pivoting Your Learning Journey

There is a potential result or action that will emerge from this class that we want to warn you about…

It will probably cause you to—

  • Ponder, reflect on,

  • Rethink, reconsider,

  • Refactor and Pivot.

  • In other words, change!

Your current Agile Coaching learning journey. To become more deeply T-shaped or Pi-shaped in your domain coaching skills.

It will challenge some of you to reimagine your learning journeys. For others, to strengthen and recommit to your learning journeys. For others, to be a significant pivot in your journey, refocus on other competency areas and personal growth. And for perhaps a few, you might decide that agile coaching isn’t for you.

But we hope every attendee will emerge from the class…different somehow.

Masterclass Cohort Dynamics

  • We’ll limit attendance to 18 individual learners.

    • What is the minimum? Perhaps 6 to 9, as we’d need at least two whole practice groups!

    • Private classes will be more flexible in terms of size dynamics.

  • We’ll meet for 2 hours, 1x per week, for 14 sessions over three+ months.

  • That’s 28 hours of in-class contact time.

  • This doesn’t include time spent with your learning group. We imagine your overall weekly time investment will be:

    • 2 hours of class time,

    • 1 hour of homework time,

    • 1-2 hours of collaboration & practice time in your Triad cohort

Each session will do a deep dive into one critical coaching concept. Then, you’ll get to practice a coaching scenario, thinking of and leveraging that concept idea into your coaching. Over time, you’ll continue to build layered experience into your coaching conversations.

In the Masterclass cohort, you’ll join a 3- to 4-person group for offline learning, discussion, mentoring, and practice.

Primary class time (non-breakouts) will be recorded for each Masterclass cohort’s use only. Group recordings are up to each practice group.

Individuals can miss three weekly sessions over the Masterclass but are expected to catch up with work in their practice groups.

Pre- and post-session exploration work will be performed in your practice groups.
