Lena, tell us about your journey: How did you go from being an intern to a team coach at SHOPMACHER?<\/strong><\/p>\n I studied printing technology in Wuppertal, which included an e-commerce course. I needed to find an internship and wanted something close to home \u2013 that’s how I came to SHOPMACHER. During my internship, I didn\u2019t have a fixed position but was involved in the company\u2019s change process. After I was hired, I started in support and then moved into project management \u2013 a role that fit well with the skills I brought to the table.<\/p>\n What motivates you to keep developing, and what role did SHOPMACHER play in that?<\/strong><\/p>\n At first, during my internship and early days, everything was new, and I had to find my way. I tried out different things and found many aspects exciting. But there wasn\u2019t that one<\/em> thing I was truly passionate about. When the company-wide change process introduced the Scrum framework, I was really curious and wanted to learn more. Suddenly, the role of Scrum Master seemed like something that could be right for me!<\/p>\n How did you decide to define your role as a Team Coach rather than a Scrum Master?<\/strong><\/p>\n When we started exploring agile software development in 2016, we quickly decided to apply the well-structured Scrum framework. Scrum helped us integrate agile principles into our workflow, making our work more structured and value-centered. However, we had to make modifications to fit the framework into our multi-project and service context.<\/p>\n Nowadays, we often use only the relevant artifacts like backlog refinement, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives, while moving away from the traditional Scrum structure. We see this as part of our agile evolution: we aim to continuously adapt our work style and take the best from various agile approaches.<\/p>\n How would you describe the role of a Team Coach at SHOPMACHER? What excites you about it, and why are meetings such an important part of your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n I see myself a bit like a trusted teacher at school. My job is to clear obstacles so our experts can work undisturbed. Besides many one-on-one conversations, I organize team meetings, shape internal processes, and support the development of my colleagues. Yes, that means a lot of meetings, but my role also involves a lot of communication. There\u2019s an exchange on every level, and I\u2019m convinced that these interactions are essential for ensuring effective, cross-team communication. As someone who\u2019s worked in various roles within the company, how has your perspective on SHOPMACHER and its culture changed?<\/strong><\/p>\n My initial perspective as part of the team has expanded to include a broader view of our company, our \u201cecosystem.\u201d It\u2019s important for me to keep all perspectives in mind, from the individual, to the team, to the overarching view of SHOPMACHER.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-40px||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”84bf949c-10fe-4130-ba88-55734903e7cc” text_font=”||||||||” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″ custom_margin=”-29px||48px||false|false”]<\/p>\n What challenges do you face in your current role, and how do you handle them?<\/strong><\/p>\n I offer ideas, but I don\u2019t need to have the<\/em> solution. With Team Member A, I might need to approach things in one way, while with Person B, I might take a completely different approach. I\u2019m not just an organizer \u2013 I get to be a coach, guide, and mediator. I couldn\u2019t have taken my own career path if I hadn\u2019t had these different roles here. By doing all of this, I feel like I\u2019m making an impact \u2013 and that gives me a lot of satisfaction!<\/p>\n How does SHOPMACHER support your personal and professional development?<\/strong><\/p>\n Mainly through targeted development discussions. I have specific goals and agreements that I can measure myself against. Additionally, I had the opportunity to participate in leadership coaching with Thankscoach<\/em>. If I want to learn something new, connect at meet-ups, or attend a specific industry conference, I have a good chance of being able to do that.<\/p>\n Are there any current trends or technologies in project management or Scrum that particularly interest you?<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019m really interested in questions like \u201cWhat comes after Scrum?\u201d and \u201cWhat if Scrum isn\u2019t the right fit?\u201d I\u2019ve been reading a lot about that lately. The topics from the agile environment also frequently touch on the concept of New Work<\/em>, which is always present with all its facets.<\/p>\n What advice would you give to someone wanting to follow a similar career path?<\/strong><\/p>\n You need some experience, either from working in a similar role at another company (e.g., Scrum Master, Agile Coach), or, like in my case, from holding another position in the same company. A complete \u201ccold start\u201d would be challenging.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.shopmacher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Lena_privat-scaled.jpg” title_text=”Lena_private” show_in_lightbox=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”80%” max_width=”100%” custom_margin=”-26px||3px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″ custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_margin_phone=”-64px||50px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-26px||3px||false|false”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-69px||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”84bf949c-10fe-4130-ba88-55734903e7cc” text_font=”||||||||” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″ custom_margin=”-31px||48px||false|false”]<\/p>\n Lena, you\u2019ve had an impressive career at SHOPMACHER.
