The Dojo Coach's Pocket Guide

“When I encourage leaders to expand their view of work to include the learning that teams need for their best performance, I’m often met with blank stares. How would it help delivery? What would it look like? The Dojo Coach’s Pocket Guide provides a comprehensive source of ideas to achieve greater team co-intelligence.”
—Diana Larsen, coach, speaker, and author of Lead without Blame

“Jess has been in the trenches—she knows the questions and challenges coaches face with teams, stakeholders, and leadership. She addresses all of those challenges with proven, practical solutions in this book. Whether you are a new Dojo coach or you already have some experience, this book will provide valuable guidance and bring clarity to your work.”
—Joel Tosi and Dion Stewart, cofounders of Dojo & Co.

“I strongly recommend this warm and thoughtful book. Dojos are the very best way to learn, and Jess’s advice is grounded in solid experience. This book provides a pathway for increasing the effectiveness of your development teams, probably more than anything else you can do.”
—Cliff Berg, Managing Partner, Agile 2 Academy

Jess Brock, longtime agilist, was introduced to the Dojo in 2019, when she was intrigued by a Dojo coaching job description that emphasized growing others. Almost as soon as Jess delved into Dojo coaching, it was evident that she connected deeply with the intent, values, and spirit of the Dojo. Perhaps the reason she fell in love with the learn-by-doing approach can be attributed to her Missouri (the “Show Me” State) roots. Jess has led dozens of Dojos, spanning multiple countries in both physical and virtual settings.
