Agile Coach Assessment Template
Battle-tested agile coach template tuned for real hiring loops: team & org coaching, scaling frameworks (less, safe), metrics & flow, rubric weights you can edit, and integrity AI on by default. Agile-coach hiring is over-credentialed and under-evaluated; the right test asks for evidence of behavior change, not certifications.
