From Agile Coach to Strategic Partner: Expanding Your Role with GrowthSprint

  • Mark Roberts

As Agile coaches and facilitators, we’ve long been catalysts for delivery excellence. But what if we could also influence the bigger picture—helping shape strategy, not just execute it? That’s the promise of GrowthSprint: a visual, collaborative Agile Business Strategy Innovation Toolkit that empowers practitioners to drive strategic clarity, alignment, and momentum.

Agile Isn’t Just for Delivery Anymore

Traditional Agile roles have focused on software and product development—Scrum, Kanban, standups, retrospectives. However, clients increasingly need help upstream: aligning stakeholders, prioritising opportunities, managing uncertainty, and turning vision into actionable strategy. GrowthSprint equips Agile professionals to step confidently into that space.

What is GrowthSprint?

GrowthSprint is a lightweight but powerful strategy planning framework. It combines Agile principles with design thinking and business innovation to help teams:

  • Develop strategy collaboratively in facilitated sprints
  • Visualise insights and decisions across 11 core zones
  • Balance vision with immediate priorities
  • Build actionable roadmaps that adapt with feedback
