I did Remote Year for 2 years pre-covid. Worked for a start up leading analytics practice

There are multiple ways but for me the work was so busy for me to plan it all so I did remote year which is a program that paired you with ~50 people and organized everything for you for 2k a month

My company is adopting Scrum and hiring a bunch of agile coaches to assist with sprints. We got assigned our agile coach that'll be starting soon.

I read a description of what this role is supposed to be for and it sounds like they'll be leading Scrum ceremonies. So they run the planning meeting, the retrospective and daily stand ups. Up to now, I've been doing those and it's taken a total of like 2 hours a week of my time.

What on earth do agile coaches do with the other 95% of their time?
