*This a TINY subset of the insanely awesome stuff we built. We are so far into the future we actually had to time travel back for this
presentation.
21. CfA Develop the Coaching Model
• Iteration 0: What are we building for students?
• Literally building new data points/features daily
• Four CfA coaches; sitting next to IT, had no idea what or
where regarding student information
• Iteration 1: Let’s Establish Standard Work!
• Rapid Iteration using configuration helped get a Minimally
Viable Product in front of coaches immediately
• Helped establish standard work practices that are now used
to help train what is now a team of 20 coaches
• Iteration 2: Now let’s scale
• From Standard Work to Efficient Work
• We have moved past helping coaches surface student
information, so we are now also starting to figure out how to
help coaches take action
