Agile Managers: Nurture Your Teams to Thrive

Add to calendar

For most managers Agile is a totally different way of work that requires a particular style of leadership. However, agile transitions often fail to provide adequate guidance on how a manager fits into an agile organization. Your role and responsibilities need to change as the organization changes. You must learn to coach, remove obstacles, and model new styles of communication. In this interactive session, learn how you can flourish as an agile manager as you nurture your teams to thrive. Join seasoned leadership coach Selena Delesie as she discusses the differences between traditional and agile management. See how you can create the conditions that nourish your teams and allow them to succeed. Next, Selena explores the role shift—toward more of a coach, obstacle remover, and cheerleader. Finally, she highlights the evolution of leadership and communication to propel agile transformations forward. See how to support agile teams and senior management while demonstrating your value. The balancing act here is crucial—but necessary—to drive the results that agile teams can achieve. You’ll leave as a much more balanced, situational, and effective leader.
