 Novice, Advanced Beginner, Competent... where is your team on this scale? How can you balance coaching and training to move them to the next level? Thanks to Simon Orrell and Jaron Lambert for sharing their work at Landmark Graphics and beyond to show us how to use behaviors to recognize what are teams need from us to improve.

Applying the Dreyfus Learning Model to Focus Your Coaching Approach Acquiring any skill through instruction and experience (e.g. flying a plane, practicing yoga, or developing software using agile) involves progressing through common stages of learning. Understanding those stages, the behaviours people (and teams) exhibit at each stage, and how to effectively coach toward the next stage, is crucial for anyone tasked with assisting a team’s agile transition. Simon Orrell and Jaron Lambert will present the Dreyfus Model of Skill Acquisition, its 5 common learning stages as applied to agile transition, and coaching advice for each stage based on their common observable behaviours.  In a former life, Simon Orrell was a pipeline engineer but went back to school and has been in the field of software development since 1996. He's been coaching companies through the implementation of agile product development techniques and Pragmatic product management techniques since 2004. With accreditations as a Professional Engineer, Project Management Professional, and Certified Scrum Coach, Simon brings a practical approach to product development.
As a Developer, Project Manager, Agile Scrum Master, Program Manager, and Development Manager, Jaron Lambert is a self-professed “software guy” interested in all aspects of building great software. He believes that agile is the proper way to manage software projects and the “old” way is, and always was, a sub-optimal fit for the business of software. Since 2004 Jaron has worked in three very different software organizations and played a key role in agile transitions at two of them. The second was tougher, and both experiences had me searching for more effective ways. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LocationSysco Corporation 1390 Enclave Parkway - Houston, Texas - 281-584-1390 Please park in front of either Sysco building (1370 & 1390 Enclave Parkway).
