What Agile Playground means?

Welcome to our website, where we bring together two seemingly different worlds – the world of professional agile coaching and the world of creativity and play as defined by Donald Winnicott.

Donald Winnicott was a renowned British pediatrician and psychoanalyst who emphasized the importance of play in the healthy development of children. He believed that play was not only important for children, but also for adults, as it provided a space for creativity and self-expression.

Similarly, professional agile coaching emphasizes the importance of creating an environment that fosters creativity, collaboration, and innovation. At its core, agile coaching is about helping teams and organizations to be more adaptable and responsive to change, while continuously improving their processes and outcomes.

At our coaching practice, we believe that Winnicott’s philosophy of creating a space for creativity and play can be integrated with the principles of agile coaching to create a more dynamic, engaging, and effective coaching experience.

Just as Winnicott emphasized the importance of providing a safe and nurturing environment for children to play, we believe that agile coaching should provide a safe space for teams to experiment, learn, and grow. We believe in creating an atmosphere of psychological safety, where team members feel free to take risks, make mistakes, and learn from their experiences.

Furthermore, just as play allows children to explore their interests and express themselves, we believe that agile coaching should encourage teams to explore their interests and passions, and to pursue projects that are meaningful and engaging to them. We believe in empowering teams to take ownership of their work, and to develop a sense of pride and ownership in their projects.

Finally, just as play is an essential component of creativity, we believe that creativity is an essential component of agile coaching. We encourage teams to think outside the box, to challenge assumptions, and to experiment with new ideas and approaches. We believe that innovation and growth come from a willingness to take risks and try new things, and we strive to create an environment that encourages and supports this type of experimentation.

In short, our coaching practice combines the best of both worlds – the principles of professional agile coaching and the philosophy of Donald Winnicott’s space for creativity and play. We believe that this combination creates a dynamic and engaging coaching experience that helps teams and organizations to reach their full potential.
