Adventures with Agile are delighted to present – The Enterprise Agile Coach Expert Cohort Program – an experiential one-of-a-kind program that significantly raises the bar for Enterprise Agile Coaching.

Are you ready to dramatically advance your skilfulness and impact as an enterprise transformation coach? Are you ready to take a dive deep into new territory for yourself as a coach, leader and practitioner?

This is your opportunity.

The Enterprise Agile Coach Expert Program integrates theories (of human and organisation development, deep systems work, organisation design, and systemic thinking) coaching, and practice within a “deliberately developmental environment” for a life-time of transformation. Under the guidance of your program leaders and mentors, and within a powerful community environment you will be both supported and challenged to move toward and beyond whatever leadership edges you’ve had difficulty crossing (or didn’t know you had).

This program is for participants who are serious about dramatically advancing their enterprise agile coaching and leadership. Over the course of the program, a journey of inner growth builds on its own momentum, propelling both individual and collective toward a new possibility for what it means to lead, inspire, and catalyse deep change in the organisations in which your leadership is being called forth.  Those who successfully complete this program and pass the assessment will come away with the advanced ICAgile Expert in Enterprise Agile Coaching (ICE-EC) designation.

This program gives you the opportunity to get serious about the kinds of results you’ve been yearning for, especially since participating in the Enterprise Agile Coach training courses.  As real-world problems arise, you will get the support you need to make better decisions and receive coaching and mentoring so that you can adapt your strategy and maximise your chance of success.
