Obeya Coach
Many organisations start with Obeya full of enthusiasm, but find it difficult to sustain the approach over time. The space has been set up, the sessions are running, but the desired behaviours, ownership and continuous improvement don’t always follow.
A successful Obeya takes more than a well-designed space or effective facilitation sessions. Organisations need to learn how to use Obeya as part of their way of working, decision-making and organisational development.
This is where the Obeya Coach plays a key role. The Coach supports teams, leaders and organisations in developing the right mindset, applying the Obeya Principles and achieving lasting change.
In this training, you will learn how to support organisations in implementing, improving and scaling Obeya. You will explore how to help people see Obeya not as a tool, but as a way of strengthening collaboration, alignment and continuous improvement.
Who is this training for?
This training is designed for experienced professionals who support organisations through change, organisational development and improving collaboration and performance.
You will get the most from this training if you work as an Agile Coach, Lean Coach, consultant, change manager, programme manager, Obeya professional or leader, and are responsible for guiding teams and organisations in achieving lasting improvements.
This training is particularly valuable for organisations that want to apply Obeya more broadly and ensure the approach becomes a genuine part of everyday practice. You will learn how to help people adopt new ways of working and achieve lasting results.
Simply put: you want not only to understand how Obeya works, but to learn how to help others succeed with it.
What will you learn during this training?
During the training, you will learn how to support organisations in implementing, developing and improving Obeya. You will explore how to use the Obeya Principles to strengthen collaboration, alignment and continuous improvement.
You will also develop skills in coaching, facilitation, change management and organisational development. You will learn how to support teams and leaders in building new behaviours and sustaining Obeya over time.
Using practical examples, exercises and reflection, you will work through situations you are likely to encounter as a coach in organisations. This helps you develop the skills to guide Obeya programmes successfully and help them grow.
