Joekub - agile, life and monkeys

Joekub has gone around the world to find interesting and engaging stories from the agile community. This time we focused on our own backyard. Agile Coaching Lab is the creation of our very own Jakub Jurkiewicz and has been making an impact in the community for nearly two years & 5 Cohorts now. What is the Agile Coaching Lab? What is a Cohort? Joe leads the interview in this podcast as he inspects what Jakub's intent with the program was and then tests its results with two people that have already gone through it. Dan Barritt (Cohort 4) & Peter Pierzynski (Cohort 5) share their experiences before, during and after the program.

Hey Joekub-tonians! This episode has Jakub and Joe jumping over to the Bay Area in San Fran to talk with Pete Lim, principal agile coach at Miro. In true Joekub fashion, our conversation takes twists and turns as we learn about what led Pete to agile coaching, what it is like being an agile coach at a company known for distributed facilitation, and what Miro culture is like (do they even have offices?). We also learn about whether Miro has an incentive programme for naming your first born "Miro". Pete is an excellent storyteller and gives us a great perspective of working as a coach in a hybrid, together/distributed world. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/joekub/message

Wei Hsiao has had a variety of careers. Lawyer, Software Tester, Agile Coach, and recently he's moved from agile coaching into people management as acting GM of Enterprise Software Delivery. Jakub & Joe take some time to understand what made Wei want to leave coaching and what skills from coaching he's brought with him. This is a great episode for any agile coaches who wonder about what lies beyond coaching and if (& how) the skills they've developed on their journey can help them with a new adventure.
