Niall McShane is the founder and Managing Director of Source Agility as well as the internationally recognised author of “Responsive Agile Coaching-how to accelerate your coaching outcomes with meaningful conversations”.

Niall is a coach at heart and throughout his career has applied coaching in many situations; sports, life, leadership and for the last 12 years, agile and ways to work.

There are two consistent themes in all of the coaching Niall has delivered over the years; performance (getting the outcome) and growth (getting better). These two elements are central to his life and work at Source Agility.

His overarching vision for the future of work (and his motivation for founding Source Agility) involves enabling organisations to get work done through the application of ways of working that promote tolerance, kindness and patience for fellow workers.

His personal interests in neuroscience and Buddhism deeply influence his approach, helping leaders and teams unlearn entrenched behaviours and adopt more effective, resilient ways of working. Ironically, despite all this professional and personal development, his golf handicap remains stubbornly unimproved!
