Coaches on the housing ART never talk except at Inspect and Adapt. What should the Scrum Master / Team Coach use instead?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Meeting other coaches only at Inspect and Adapt is a fire review after the apartment is already wet. Coach Sync is where housing-team impediments and patterns can travel during the PI. Talk sooner, still as team coaches—not as a substitute RTE.
Full Explanation
Coaches on a housing ART who never talk except at Inspect and Adapt should participate in Coach Sync to share impediments and patterns across teams during the PI. Waiting until the end of the PI to exchange patterns lets impediments fester across housing teams while residents wait. A private coach chat that never surfaces team issues to the ART may build camaraderie but fails as a substitute if it never informs ART-visible improvement. Asking the RTE to facilitate every team retrospective so coaches need not meet overloads the RTE and abandons peer coach learning. Coach Sync is the lightweight cadence for sharing what one team already solved so others do not rediscover the same blockage. Exam caveat: SASM includes Coach Sync as cross-team coach collaboration during the PI; I&A alone is too late as the only coach forum, and RTE-run retros are not the default substitute. Operational check: attend Coach Sync with a short list of housing-team impediments and experiments, share at least one reusable pattern, bring one item back to the team working agreement or ART risk set, and confirm within the PI that another team benefited from the shared learning. Keep notes light and actionable so Coach Sync does not become another status theater.
