Agile Santa Christmas Special with Hal Hogue, Misi Eyetsemitan, Alba Uribe, Rosemary Atanga, and Jesus Gerardo de la Fuente Garcia

This week, Dan Neumann is joined by the AgileThought colleague  Jesus Gerardo De La Fuente Garcia to continue the conversation started in  Episode 159 about the many hats of a Scrum Master. In the previous episode, they dove deep into the role of a Scrum Master as a teacher and today you will hear their discussion about the roles of mentor and Coach.   In this episode, Gerardo outlines the differences between mentoring and coaching, explaining the various functions a Scrum Master assumes in each of these roles.   Key Takeaways  What does a Scrum Master’s coaching position look like?   Coaching begins when the team understands the why and the what, behind their everyday practices. A Scrum Master as a Coach opens space for his/her team to experiment, he/she shows new perspectives and possibilities, but before these are possible, there needs to be a relationship based on trust. A Scrum Master needs to stimulate a culture of continuous improvement as well as to support the team in problem-solving and conflict resolution. A Coach helps to change attitudes, mindsets, and behaviors that restrict the team to perform in the best way possible. Giving open and honest feedback is also the chore of a Coach. A Scrum Master should support and encourage collaboration with the Scrum Teams.   A Scrum Master as a Mentor   The team has a full understanding of the values and principles, and in a way, they have the same knowledge as a Coach. A mentor is an inspiration to others and guides people to personal and professional growth. A mentor needs to be ready to serve others before his or herself. A mentor helps the team to become more and more resilient. A Scrum Master as a mentor finds what motivates each member of the team and helps them to identify their own goals. A Mentor promotes these three habits: Thinking, Feeling, and Executing.

A Scrum Master’s Role as a Coach and a Mentor (Part 2) with Jesus Gerardo de la Fuente Garcia

This week, Dan Neumann is joined by a first-time guest and AgileThought colleague  Jesus Gerardo De La Fuente Garcia. Thanksgiving is here, and a lot of what Coaches and Scrum Masters do is about giving.   In this episode, Dan and Gerardo dive deep into the role of a Scrum Master as a teacher, leaving for a future episode the two other roles, being one as a coach and the other as a mentor. They explain the meaning of a team, the values implied in it, and how a Scrum Master can foster a safe environment for a team to thrive.   Key Takeaways  How is giving perceived by a Scrum Master?   Scrum Masters are in a great position to help others to be successful. A Scrum Master can cover three important positions: Coach, Teacher, and Mentor.   What does it mean to be a team?   Clear is kind: It is a great way to start to clarify the principles and values of the Scrum Framework for the team to know, not only what they are doing, but why they are doing it. Then they can start to share identity as team members. Working in collaboration to achieve a shared goal effectively. Listening to other team members. Taking everybody’s ideas under consideration. Accountability and candid respect need to be present at all times among team members. Sharing best practices as well as the bad habits that need to be avoided. A team needs to be taught how to be self-organized and be able to make decisions when needed.   A gift that a Scrum Master can give to a team is having fun!   Strengthening collaboration bonds and enhancing the team spirit. Using mindful techniques and games can help to bring a team together. Every member is a crucial part of the team.   Thankfulness   Nothing is for granted; gratefulness needs to be practiced at all times. Openness and trust given by team members are well appreciated.
