<p>Hi Anthony and Hans-Peter,</p>
<p>This is very interesting to follow. I am trying to introduce SF in healthcare organizational development.

<p>Hi Anthony,</p>
<p>many thanks for you blog! Now for me the findings of your study are much more clear.</p>
<p>And I fully support this:</p>
<blockquote><p><font size="2"><font face="Arial">In reality, problem-focused and solution-focused approaches overlap, coaching conversations are not solely solution-focused or solely problem-focused. Coaches move between
these approaches to best meet the needs of the coachee.</font></font></p>

<p>Hi Anthony,</p>
<p>many thanks for you blog! Now for me the findings of your study are much more clear.</p>
<p>And I fully support this:</p>
<blockquote><p><font size="2"><font face="Arial">In reality, problem-focused and solution-focused approaches overlap, coaching conversations are not

<p>Since some months (and the next few months) I work as a "<a href="http://www.scrumalliance.org/pages/what_is_scrum" target="_blank">Scrum Master</a>" in a big IT-company. This role has a lot in common with a "Coach". And together with the team I have to handle very different issues: One kind of issues are related to the "teamwork", which can be handled best with SF-questions (asked e.g. every two weeks - at the end of each "sprint" - in the "retrospective", which is one of the Scrum-ceremonies).</p>
<p>An other kind of issues are related to IT-technical issues like "how to reduce the amount of bugs"; "how to make the development-infrastructure more stable"; "how to reduce the response time for user-queries"</p>
<p>For those issues deep and detailed analyses of the root-causes of the "problem" must be done. And I experienced, that the team members (= IT-experts) really like this kind of "problem focus" and at the end, having found a way to eliminate the essential root-causes, they feel very proud and relieved.</p>
<p>So, in my role as a Scrum Master I have to "play both pianos": The SF one for complex issues which are related to the team as a social system and to specific persons being part of or connected with the team . And the "PF" (problem focused) one for complicated issues which e.g. are related to the IT-systems.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Best regards, Hans-Peter </p>
