Niall McShane is a coach at heart and throughout his career has applied coaching in many situations; sports, life, leadership and most recently agile and ways to work. There are two consistent themes in all of the coaching Niall has delivered over the years; performance (getting the outcome) and growth (learning to be better).

​

Niall considers himself a practicing Buddhist and an amateur neuroscientist; both of these pursuits have been woven into his book alongside professional coaching and agile content. Niall is not claiming to know everything about the topic of agile coaching, but what he can promise is that he has lived and practiced everything he writes about in this book—and it works!
