We are looking to hire an agile coach next year (even though I am certified and still coaching my path has taken me out of coaching and more into design management).
Just wondering who SMs typically report to in smaller organizations?
If we have a product manager over 3 teams should the agile coach report to them. Would this potentially cause friction for an SM who will have to act as the coach between a PM and the scrum team?
Or, should the agile coach report to the VP. The issue I see here is they might be seen as a snitch.
