Ever wonder when your magical ability to stop or slow time will emerge? We’ve all found ourselves overwhelmed by our calendar or our to do list.

We may not be able to slow down the requests but we can get better at managing the time, prioritizing our work, narrowing our focus and saying no when we should which will allow us to use our time more wisely. In this talk you will learn the 6 principles of time management which will give you the ability to take control of your time and your work.

Key points will include:

  • Examining the effects of context switching
  • Practicing one of three task prioritization techniques
  • Evaluating when is the best time to do different kinds of tasks for you
  • Deciding how you will focus your time and create ritual to lower the mental burden
  • Analyzing the value of saying “no”

Who makes more, full-time salaried coaches or self-employed contractors? How much do experience and formal education matter? How does the compensation of women and minorities compare to the average? Does speaking at events and conferences affect compensation?

Until now, it has been almost impossible for Agile Coaches, managers, and recruiters to understand market rates for coaching services. But that changed with the publication in March of the 2021 Agile Coach Income Report, a survey of 156 Agile coaches around the world working in full-time and consultative roles.

Join us to find out what you might earn as an Agile Coach, or how much it costs to hire the kind of coach your organization needs. This discussion presents a great opportunity to build transparency and start using our combined knowledge of the market.
