Topics covered in
The Arena Program
Coaching methodologies
Coaching has delivered high impact for centuries. We cherry-pick what we find most useful for your personal ExO Coach toolbox and help you practice it during this program.
The ExO Sprint in the X-ray machine
We bring you into a detailed analysis of how to prioritize and structure your Sprint activities for maximum impact in relation to the scope of the Sprint. Bring your own real-life opportunity if you like and work on it as a case.

Be the Sprinthero in every interaction throughout the Sprint. We equip you with ready-to-use facilitation guidelines, practical exercises and content you can bring to your client when -or just before- they most need it.
