TL;DR: How to Solve Impediments

No matter if you are a Scrum Master or an agile coach, sooner or later, you will run into a problem that’s outside of the team’s sphere of control. The question is: How do you solve impediments of this kind? What approach has worked best for you in the past?

Barry Overeem, Christiaan Verwijs and I teamed up to provide some transparency in this matter and share your best techniques and approach with the agile community. All it takes to contribute is five minutes of your time to participate in the anonymous ‘how to solve impediments’ survey. (We expect results to be available in November.)

The How to Solve Impediments Survey

This anonymous survey is a cooperation of Barry Overeem and Christiaan Verwijs of The Liberators and Age-of-Product. We want to help the agile community to identify successful patterns of problem-solving and overcoming conflict within organizations, and we need your support with this research.

To reduce complexity and keep the questionnaire short, we are particularly interested in the approach you consider to be your most significant success. We also need some information about your background as well as the organization itself.

Finally, while the survey is anonymous, due to GDPR, we nevertheless need your approval to process the information provided. Any reply without this approval cannot become a part of the sample.
