Here’s how our Systemic Agile Coaching course helped Nathan Turney, an Agile Coach at the UK’s Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
Systemic Agile Coaching (ICP-ENT), accredited by ICAgile, is our top-tier implementation of ICAgile’s Agility in the Enterprise based on our coaching expertise.
Laura: It was great to have you in the first cohort of our Systemic Agile Coaching course. What was your impression of the course?
Nathan: The Systemic Agile Coaching course was an absolutely fantastic course and one that I thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish. Your teaching style and content was fantastic throughout and kept us all engaged.
My favourite part of the course was the interactive sessions across all of it that really prompted us as a cohort to really get to grips with the coursework and what we were here to learn! The group made this really easy as everyone wanted to participate and help wherever possible. This was fantastic and an added bonus!
Laura: Thank you so much, that means a lot to me. What specific areas of the course did you find most helpful?
Nathan: I particularly found the sections around Organisational Culture and Alignment especially the section on Engaging Leadership in Conversation about Culture and also Developing an Agile Team Culture the most insightful as it is these very areas that I see needing most attention in my organisation. You presented both of these areas in both deep and insightful ways that really aided in shoring up my understanding of how to approach both of these within my organisation.
Laura: So you were able to look at what needs to change in the organisation around the team, in addition to the team. What has been the impact on your work at DWP?
Nathan: Since finishing the course I have been able to hold better conversations and facilitate better sessions with both my agile teams and senior leadership across several areas of our business. I have used CID-CLEAR as an iterative approach and also McKinsey’s 7S and have found them great tools in their own right to help get some really great outcomes.
Laura: Wow, that’s a super testimonial! I’m so pleased the course is having a positive impact. Thank you for the great feedback.
