- [Agile Coaching Ethics](https://agilealliance.org/agile-coaching-code-of-ethical-conduct/) - People practicing Agile coaching are expected to act ethically, but what does that mean in practice? The Code of Ethical Conduct for Agile Coaching can help!
- [コーチング倫理規範](https://agilealliance.org/agile-coaching-code-of-ethical-conduct/japanese-translation/) - AGILE COACHING ETHICS AGILE ALLIANCEの定めるアジャイルコーチング倫理規範 本規範は有志によって作成されたもので、アジャイルコーチングのための倫理規範と倫理シナリオから構成されます。倫理シナリオは 、読者が直面するであろうジレンマを分類し、さまざまな文脈における倫理的行動の例を示すことを目的としています。 アジャイルコーチングのための倫理規範 アジャイルコーチングの実践者には倫理的な振る舞いが求められます。実際のところ、それはどういうことなのでしょうか。 本倫理規範(以下、規範)はアジャイルコーチングに取り組んでいる方々に助言を提供し、期待されている振る舞い、助言、アプローチの種類について指針を示すものです。 アジャイルコーチングは個人、チーム、システミックコーチング、ファシリテーション、ティーチング、メンタリングといった数多くの分野を包括した、進化し続ける実践そのものです。それらすべての知見はクライアントのニーズをアジャイルなアプローチで取り扱うために駆使されます。 アジャイルコーチングは複雑なので、困難に感じる状況を経験するのは当然のことです。規範は、皆さんがそうした状況の中で下さざるを得ない決断や、クライアントのための難しい決断の後押しになることでしょう。 規範を受け入れたら、困難な決断を迫られる場合でも倫理的に行動するよう努めます。たとえ個人的にマイナスの影響があるとしても、勇敢に行動します。 本規範の署名者はさまざまな文化、世代から参加しており、さまざまなグループに属しています。私たちは、違いを脇に置き、より良い方法を追求するためにお互いを高め合うことで、この運動の力が増幅されると信じています。私たちは、困難な決断や勇気ある対話において、お互いをサポートすることにコミットします。 規範 アジャイルコーチングを倫理的に実践する者として、私は以下のことにコミットします。 1. 機密、知的財産、情報セキュリティの保護 私は共有された情報を保護し、法的な理由がある場合、またはクライアントやステークホルダーと明確な合意がある場合にのみ情報を開示します。 私は他人のアイデアを適切に引用し、それが自分のものであるという印象を与えません。 2. 自分の能力の範囲内での行動 私は自分のスキル、経験、資格についてオープンかつ透明に伝えます。 顧客や関係者から私の能力を超える要求があった場合には、その旨を明確に伝えます。 別の形での専門的な支援が必要だと判断した場合は、クライアントに率直に伝えます。 3. 内省と継続的な研鑽 私は、アジャイルコーチングの活動における倫理的およびその他の課題を探求するために、同業のグループまたはメンターと関わります。 私は内省と専門能力の研鑽を通じて自己認識と効果を向上させるよう努めます。 4. 利益相反の回避 影響を受ける可能性のあるすべての人に対して、潜在的な利益相反について透明性を保ちます。 私は、専門的な判断力と客観的な思考力を維持するために、クライアントやステークホルダーに不利益をもたらして私自身が利益を得るような状況を意識的に避けます。 私は、クライアントやステークホルダーと協力して利益相反を解消し、必要に応じて支援を求め、必要に応じて関係を中断または終了します。 5. 関係性における価値の確保 私はクライアントやステークホルダーと、関係が価値あるものであること、そして相互の合意によってのみ拡大されることを確認します。 クライアントが私の支援に依存している場合はそれを透明化し、クライアント自身で自走できるアジリティに向けて取り組みます。 関係の価値が低下していると判断した場合は、クライアントに率直に伝えます。 6. 社会的責任、多様性、包摂性の維持 私は会話にさまざまな声を持ち込む機会をうかがいます。 私はあらゆる形態の差別を防止し、排除するために行動します。 私は自分の行動によって、あるいは不作為によって、自分が出会ったときよりも良い社会を残せるよう努力します。 7. 境界についての合意 たとえそれが拡大したとしても、双方で合意された範囲を保持します。 私はクライアントと協力してそのニーズを理解し、私の個人的な好みや希望に基づいた解決策を押し付けません。 クライアントがアジャイルソフトウェア開発宣言の価値や原則に反する目的を追求している場合、私は公然と異議を唱えます。 8. 地位と権力の分離 私は、自分の地位、権力、影響力を利用して個人的な利益を得たり、クライアントの目標を損なったりしません。 権力、特権、地位がクライアントの目標や、支援に関する私の能力を妨げている場合、その気づきを提供します。
