Professionalising Agile Coaching

Misconceptions exist with clients and coachees, in regards to what Agile Coaching is. This confusion has resulted in unqualified people presenting themselves as Agile Coaches who may end up hurting clients and coachees, if not themselves and ultimately the profession.
