Great Agile Team Leaders: Grown Not Born with Lyssa Adkins

Synopsis:

Do you think that some agile team leaders just “have it” and maybe you don’t? Do you sometimes feel paralyzed when confronted with the complex behaviors and issues on your team? Or, are you a team member and wonder, “What is this Scrum Master person supposed to do, really?”

After working with thousands of agile leaders (Scrum Masters, agile coaches, agile managers), I can tell you that almost everyone has these thoughts and that great agile team leaders are grown, not born. They are forged in the cauldron of this very challenging and rewarding work. And, the best of them overcome their worries and limitations when they take themselves on a conscious path of growth – step-by-step becoming the leader their team and organization needs.

In this meetup, we will explore the “must have” skills of great agile team leaders and chart a development path you, team members and managers can use to consciously create the level of leadership competence your organization truly needs.
