Lyssa Adkins is a coach, facilitator, teacher and inspirer.

Her current focus is improving the performance of top leadership teams through insightful facilitation and organization systems coaching. Making difficult decisions faster and with clear alignment, unknotting challenging, multi-department impediments, creating the conditions for organizational delivery…this is where she thrives and helps thrive.

Lyssa has served the emergence of Agile Coaching as a profession. In 2010, she co-founded the Agile Coaching Institute which has developed over 10,000 people in the knowledge, skills and being needed to deliver genuinely competent agile coaching. She is the author of Coaching Agile Teams, which is still a top-10 Agile book years after publication and will be released as an audiobook in Fall 2020.

Lyssa likes to truly listen before answering a question and she tends toward a balance of the provocative and the practical.
