What type of coach are you

, ,

I don’t necessarily like it when we type-cast people into categories or types. So, on the record, I don’t necessarily agree with what Jem Jelly is putting down in this post of — The 3 Types of Agile Coaches. I’ve written about my thoughts before here.

But that being said, and assuming positive intent, I’m channeling a few other types of agile coaches (without any attributes) to share with you.…see if any of them remind you of yourself or another coach—

  • The Well-Rounded Practitioner Coach

  • The Change Artist Coach

  • The Don Quixote Coach

  • The Craftsperson Coach

  • The Purist Coach

  • The Pragmatist Coach

  • The Professional Coach

  • The Consultant Coach or The Benjamins Coach ($$$)

  • The Hammer (everything looks like a nail) Coach

  • The Badass (need I say more ;-) Coach

  • The 2-day, 3-day, or 4-day Class Coach

  • The Self-aware-less Coach

  • The Me-me-Me Coach

  • The “Do what I say, Not what I do” Coach

  • The Life Coach

  • The System-less Coach

  • The “I can change Them” Coach

  • The Nice Coach

  • The “Why am I coaching?” Coach

  • The “Sharing clickbait on LinkedIn” Coach

Wrapping Up

Well, Bob, what sort of coach are you?

I’d have to say…wait for it…wait for it…

I’m a Badass Agile Moose Coach, and I’ll leave it to you to figure out what that means.

So, instead of overreacting to Jem’s post, I thought I’d get a bit playful with it. But also give everyone something to reflect on.

Stay agile, my friends,

Bob.
