Motivation as a Quality Coach
Moving to a quality coach role can be slightly confronting if you've typically worked within a single team. There's a certain amount of confidence required to jump into a new context who, for whatever reason, may be reluctant to include you in their work. How do you quickly convince a team that you are there to help and not inflict additional work? Well, one technique is to follow the energy. In this month's post, I explain the concept and what it requires from you.
