Conventional wisdom says you should follow time-tested Agile practices without deviation for 6 to 12 months before adapting them to your organization’s particular circumstances. But blindly following traditional Scrum and Agile rituals does more harm than good. Rituals will never achieve the outcomes you’re seeking, because they are missing the “Why?”.

Red Pill Coaching is about using the principles of Agile to focus right from the start on what will really work for your organization. It will introduce your teams to a new and typically disturbing understanding of the true nature of Agile thinking. Red Pill Coaching techniques put a spotlight on practical strategies that will fit your circumstances and generate the outcomes your organization is looking for.

The choice is yours. Take the blue pill, and continue what you’re doing now. Try the red pill approach, and help your teams build the world’s best products..
