Welcome!

You know this Agile Software Development thing pretty well now.  You've done it on a number of projects and have experienced the highs and fallen in the potholes.  You've now moved on to a new group or company, and they want to "go Agile".  Since you're the local expert, you've been volunteered to be the Coach or ScrumMaster.  Congratulations, you're the dog who actually caught the car!  The question is, now that you have the car do you know what to do with it?

There are plenty of books out there about Agile Software Development in general, and some on Coaching in particular.  The coaching books are good - I own both of them!  This series is different.  It assumes that you know Agile already, and won't delve into the minutiae of the principles and practices unless warranted by the example at hand.

This series uses the metaphor of our progression through the stages of life to provide a backdrop for a team's journey towards Agility, and your journey as a parent... er, I mean Coach.  Anecdotes provide the context for a particular point, and concrete examples give you strategies for working through those situations, and even entire stages in a team's "life".
