When turbulence hits, pilots don't panic—they follow a mantra that's kept them alive for generations: Aviate, Navigate, Communicate. In that order. Always.
Agile Coach... Aviate! brings this life-or-death discipline to the world of Agile coaching, offering a powerful framework for coaches navigating the turbulence of organizational change. Whether you're coaching individuals struggling with new ways of working, teams caught in dysfunction, or entire companies attempting large-scale transformations, you need more than good intentions—you need a mantra that keeps you focused when everything feels chaotic.
This book reveals:
The origin story: How the aviation mantra translates to Agile coaching and why the sequence matters
The framework in action: Practical guidance on applying each element—Aviate, Navigate, Communicate—across different coaching contexts
Real challenges, honest solutions: From the "Liars Club" (when teams say what you want to hear) to "NPC Syndrome" (when people go through the motions without real engagement), discover how to recognize and navigate the hidden obstacles that derail transformations.
Born from years in the trenches, Agile Coach... Aviate! is your flight manual for the messy, rewarding work of coaching change.
