Win Win Conversations

A powerful phrase we learn as agile coaches is to “*release the outcome!*”. In other words, coaching is most effective when we distance ourselves from the final outcomes. Instead, we should focus on helping those we are coaching, visualize and achieve the outcomes that are important to them.
But many of us are Scrum Masters, managers, executives or in similar positions where we have a vested interest in outcomes. So, how do we effectively coach when we have such a bias?
In this session you will learn and practice a powerful conversation tool that allows you to maintain a coaching stance when outcomes are personally important to you. This will allow you to build trust and align others around shared outcomes resulting in win-win situations. Many people also find this conversational tool to be very useful in their personal lives.
