Create a Service Catalogue for your Team

Have you every wondered what it takes to create a Coaching Practice in your organisation? What will it do, how is it structured, how will people know what services are on offer.

Where I work my Coaching Practice started with a Service Catalogue, this is our list of all the services our team offers to our customers in the areas of coaching, facilitating, mentoring, teaching as well as technical, transformation or business mastery. Need to rent a Scrum Master for a few days? We got you! Need help to facilitate a user story mapping workshop? We got you! A comprehensive service catalogue is a great way to share with your customers what your coaching team can offer.

We don’t need a requirement. We need more information. How about a hypothesis instead? I believe that if I test a range of spanners on the nuts I will find the right size, I will know when I am successful as the nut will be turned by the spanner without slipping. Now this tells me what I need to do and how I know I will have found an answer. Let’s imagine the result is that we discover we need a 10mm spanner for our 10mm nut. Now I can write a requirement that says The solution shall provide a 10mm spanner that can turn a 10mm nut co...
