Description

The average annual salary for an Agile Coach in US is about $138,000 and the demand for Agile professionals keeps increasing. There are a lot of Agile-related certifications in the market (PMI-ACP, Scrum Master, SAFe practitioner and many more), but most of them are focused on a certain framework, while an Agile Coach profession requires a deep understanding of an array of frameworks along with the underlying principles and values. Depending on team and product, you would need to tailor the existing frameworks or create a new framework from scratch.

This course will teach you all the Agile basics along with advanced concepts, tools and skills any successful coach needs to have.

I will start by teaching you the foundation of Agile: Agile principles, product development processes, different types of users and user research. We will then dig into product work: user stories, product backlog, planning, prioritization, estimation and reviewing. After that we will put all those building blocks together and will talk about specific Agile frameworks: Scrum, Kanban, Xtreme Programming, Lean Startup and Scaled Agile. Finally, I will teach you how to work with a team: analyzing product, process and team's health, improving communication, approaching the Agile transformation and fixing various problems. We will also cover the most popular software such as Jira, Asana, Trello and Monday.

After finishing this course you will have all the knowledge and skills you need to become a successful Agile coach.

This course contains over 11 hours of video and downloadable guidebook. It also includes a unique Agile Maturity scorecard which would help you to quickly screen any team's level of Agile maturity and identify areas for improvements. On top of that, you get access to Health Monitor facilitation tools.

A really great resource for learning the fundamentals and applications of Agile. I really like that she went farther and included material on how to become an agile coach, specifically. A lot of other agile courses I've taken were all just theory and felt like they were taught out of a textbook, but this one is much much better. Lots of real-world examples and easy to digest. Would definitely recommend.

Having nearly 10 years of experience as Agile practitioner, Product Owner and Agile coach, I have worked with hundreds of teams to help them become more customer-centric, efficient and outcome-driven.

I used to work for NTT Communications, Rakuten, Indeed and most recently - for McKinsey & Company Japan, driving large scale Agile transformations across multiple industries and locations as an Enterprise Agile Coach. Now I have my own coaching and consulting business, Agile Apothecary (see "website")

I am passionate about teaching and coaching - nothing can be compared with the joy of helping someone to understand a new concept or to improve the way they are doing something.

I live and work in Tokyo, Japan and do a lot of snowboarding and scuba diving in my free time.


I was born in Russia (in case you are wondering about the accent) and I've been living in Japan since 2011. I chose to renounce my nationality in 2021 for political reasons and got naturalized as a Japanese citizen. I am strongly condemning the Russian aggression in Ukraine, I wish for the war to be ended and for war criminals to be punished. I am standing with Ukraine and I want to ask you, my dear students and future students to also support this beautiful brave country in the ways that are available to you.
