Test Coaches - where to find them?

Unfortunately my fav test consultant was offering a monthly 30min session plus all his weekly blogs/youtube etc BUT I didnt sign up straight away… missed out :frowning:

Where do testers find a great test coach? I am a single tester driving testing/qa/anything else within a team and really need to have those one2one convo’s with a highly experienced test manager/tech coach.

Are these people rare like hens teeth

More clarity around what I mean when referring to a Test Coach/Mentor?

I’m referring to someone who can take you to the next level > team lead > test manager etc not learning technical or quality skills. This is extremely difficult for the single tester who has never really been under a test lead/manager to be mentored by them but wants to go that way.

Hi Kimberley, I have coached and mentored many testers. What are you looking for? Contact me and let’s have a chat to see if I can help you. Best, Huib

Hey Huib,

Interesting I worked at my skill set and have moved over to business analysis / agile stuff now but still keep my hand in testing too.
Thank you for the offer though…

No problem! You now know where to find me :wink:

One of my mentors back during university times, told me that I could select a mentor and that you mentor doesn’t necessarily need to how they are mentoring you.

That said, it can be so good when all people involved know what their role is.

Cheers,
Stephan
