Leading Yourself to an Agile Mindset with The Responsibility Process

Are your agile efforts missing something, but you can't put your finger on it? Perhaps The Responsibility Process can help.

No business sector enjoys wider adoption of The Responsibility Process (described below) than the Agile/Lean/Scrum/Kanban/XP communities (hereafter, "agile" or "agility").

Why?

It's a great fit. The Responsibility Process is a potent and organic self-leadership tool for taking ownership and claiming the freedom, choice, and power that comes along with it. It's a brilliant shared language for ownership and non-ownership, as well as an elegant core organizing principle.

Each of these whys speaks directly to core values and principles of agile.

Many agile leaders and coaches find The Responsibility Process priceless in their own agility, and in building agile teams, leaders, and cultures. However, for many agile leaders and coaches, it isn’t clear at all what The Responsibility Process offers them. This presentation will make more explicit connections between agility and The Responsibility Process.

About The Speaker:

Christopher Avery, Ph.D.

CEO & FOUNDER OF THE RESPONSIBILITY COMPANY

When Christopher Avery was a management consultant, this was his driving question: Why are so many smart people unhappy at work?
25 years ago, Christopher realized that the most useful skills he was teaching his smart, ambitious, professional clients were coping skills. They needed coping skills because they were stuck in a suffocating culture that systematically disempowered and controlled them. An insidious control cycle kept well-meaning, high-performing leaders and key contributors at all levels from doing their best, taking risks, learning, and operating with freedom, power and choice for the organizations’ best interests.
