AGENDA
It's not enough that management commit themselves to quality & productivity, they must know what it is they must do.
Such a responsibility cannot be delegated.
- W. Edwards Deming
People are already doing their best; the problems are with the system.
Only management can change the system.

BARRIERS TO FURTHER AGILE ADOPTION
WHO’S GOING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN?
COLLABORATIVE LEADERSHIP BY RICHARD BRANSON
VS.
Believe Power comes from their Position of Authority
Believe Power is greatest in a Collaborative Team
Maintain Ownership of Information Openly Share Information and Knowledge
Sometimes Listen to Suggestions and Ideas from the Team
Encourage Suggestions and Ideasfrom their Teams
Deliver the Approved Solution to their Team Facilitate Brainstorming with their Team
Allocate Time and Resources Only when Proven Necessary
Enable their Team by Allocating Time and Resources Right Away
Adhere to Specific Roles and Responsibilities
Allow Roles and Responsibilities to Evolve and Fluctuate
Fight Fires and Focus on Symptoms Seek to Uncover the Root Causes of Issues
Review Staff Performance Annually According to Company Policy
Offer Immediate an Ongoing Feedback and Personal Coaching
COLLABORATIVE LEADERSTRADITIONAL LEADERS
COMMUNICATION, DIALOGUE, VISIBILITY, PRESENCE
§ You cannot not communicate§ Silence is also communication§ Not being present is also communication§ People need you, your time, and your listening skills§ Dialogue provides safety and comfort
THE FIVE DYSFUNCTIONS OF A TEAM
Absence ofTRUST
Fear ofCONFLICT
Lack ofCOMMITMENT
Avoidance ofACCOUNTABILITY
Inattention toRESULTS
SITUATIONAL LEADERSHIP
Any combination of task and employee is unique – and must be handled as such
Or mentoring, depending on the employees needs
THE LEADER AS MENTOR§ A leader is a mentor (not only a coach), and inspires and supports
§ Build trust and intimacy with them, and provide guidance, experiences, good advice, and inspiration frequently.
§ Do not be afraid to provide specific, concrete advice.§ You are a mentor too, not only a coach,
depending on the Situational Leadership. § Empathy
§ The capacity to understand or feel what another person is experiencing from within the other person's frame of reference
§ “The capacity to place oneself in another's shoes”
FEEDBACK§ People wants to be seen and
acknowledged§ Tool: Micro-feedback is HIGHLY effective
§ Timeliness is the key to success§ On daily basis§ Not just on bi-weekly one-on-one
or at the yearly Performance Appraisal§ Give credit immediately§ Give feedback immediately§ Both criticism and acknowledgement is
needed. § Be concrete and constructive. § Focus on actions.
HELP TEAMS SELF-ORGANIZE§ Make the team rally behind meaningful targets, goals or outcomes§ Make team boundaries crystal clear§ Under-organize the team§ Make sure supporting processes are in place§ Reward teams, not individuals, for pulling through§ Ask yourself: can the team break down the silos?§ Help the team make clear agreements and set behavioral expectations
that match their unique situation and culture§ Provide continuous feedback
§ … hire an external coach ;-)

AGILE HR1. Focus on creating valuable employee experiences and exceeding expectations2. Give people purpose, meaning, and context3. Shape a strong culture, where core values are lived up to – by everyone – every day4. Create a stimulating work environment and provide necessary tools and access5. Appoint amazing people and nourish their passion and potential6. Build an organizational network around collaborative teams and motivated people7. Value face to face conversations and be courageous and genuine in all your
interactions8. Stimulate and boost meaningful growth9. Ensure continuous learning and exchange of ideas, information and knowledge10. Care about the happiness, health and welfare of your people
REFLECTIONS?
LET’S SUMMARIZE…This is what an Agile environment looks like:§ Leadership is first and foremost about
purpose
§ Business value is delivered by small, co-located, cross-functional and self-organizing teams
§ Team membership is stable over a longer period to increase performance
§ Management empowers decentralized decision-making
§ Temporary documentation is replaced with face-to-face interaction
§ Full transparency instills trust
§ Big projects are delivered as a series of small independent project all adding value
§ Frequent deliveries means short feed-back loops which leads to higher quality and engagement
§ Relationships and results brings joy of work (and happier people produce more!)
§ Make continuous improvements a natural part of the company culture (failure need to be an option)
