Commitment to Project Goals: Advising the team to stay committed and focused on the project goals helps in maintaining the direction and purpose of the project. It ensures that the team does not get distracted by unrelated demands and can continue to work towards the agreed-upon objectives.
Managing External Interference: The agile coach can help the team manage external interference by reinforcing the importance of the project goals and the need to prioritize them over unrelated demands. This helps in protecting the team's focus and productivity.
Stakeholder Communication: The agile coach can facilitate communication with the senior manager to explain the impact of unrelated demands on the project and negotiate a resolution that minimizes disruption to the team's work.
A. By coaching the team to outperform previous velocity: Focusing on outperforming previous velocity does not address the root cause of the distraction. It may also lead to unrealistic expectations and burnout.
B. By coaching the team to adhere to expectations set by the scrum master: While adhering to expectations is important, it does not specifically address the issue of unrelated demands from a senior manager. The focus should be on managing external interference and maintaining project focus.
C. By encouraging overestimation to increase velocity: Overestimation to artificially increase velocity is not a sustainable or ethical practice. It can lead to inaccurate planning and further issues down the line.
