Greetings All,
The following is an opportunity to do facilitation, for a living, in
northern Maryland...
==========================================================
Job Opportunities in Facilitation:
www.OpenAgileAdoption.com implementation in northern Maryland...600+
person company
==========================================================
Background:
One of my Agile adoption clients, this one in northern Maryland (about
90 mins from DC) immediately seeks several people for full-time hire to
facilitate the ongoing work of 18 existing software teams new to Agile
software development.
In this role you are a member of a 6-person team responsible for
facilitating "high performance" (hint hint) across the entire
enterprise...
...The ideal candidate has:
* Passionate interest in the dynamics and application of
self-organization
* Solid understanding of OST concepts and facilities (strongly preferred)
* Direct facilitation experience (general meetings, World Cafe etc)
* Familiarity with Agile software development; especially the Agile
Manifesto 4 values & 12 principles
* Familiarity with Open Agile Adoption concepts and components
* Familiarity with Kanban, Scrum and related practices (user stories,
planning poker etc)
...If you are a successful candidate, you'll be mentored and guided by
professional Agile coaches. These temporary external coaches (myself
included) will begin vacating throughout the Open Agile Adoption
implementation period (90 to 120 days) after bringing you up to speed...
The primary responsibilities are:
* Facilitate various team meetings
* Sense what you teams need from a sociological point of view
* Create conditions for self-management and self-organization to manifest
* Work with peers and and people in higher-authorized roles to create
& maintain the conditions for high performance and continuous
improvement.
* Be diplomatic and adept in communicating as needed, up and down the
organization
* Work within and contribute to an enterprise-wide community of practice
These are full-time positions. Up to 5 of them are available. This is a
ground-floor opportunity to facilitate, full-time for a living, in an
Agile environment where periodic, enterprise-wide Open Space is part of
the plan. Knowledge of the software side of things is important, yet
less important than your grasp of sociology and related topics.
If you have solid facilitation experience, and
* are seeking a great full-time job in facilitation, and
* have more than a clue about Agile software development, and
* live near (or are willing to relocate to) northern Maryland, then:
....please contact me by email with "Maryland Jobs" in the subject line.
Kind Regards,
Daniel
