Tribal Leadership in an Agile World
(1 Day)
Agility is a value system that emphasizes people, results, collaboration, and responsiveness involving self-organizing cross-functional teams that constitute an agile enterprise. Agility is much more fundamental than the Scrum framework, Extreme Programming practices, Lean Development approach, or Kanban method!
Harvard Business suggests that 70% of change initiatives fail, 75% of change initiatives do not yield the promised results, and strong cultures — interconnected people bound by a commitment to shared values and alignment around a shared vision — outperform weaker cultures with 4 times higher revenue, 7 times more expanded work force, 12 times higher stock prices, and 756% higher net income. How do we best approach change initiatives and achieve real benefits? Tribal Leadership!
Tribal Leadership is a proven transformational process and leadership model for fostering organizational health, which leverages natural groups to build thriving organizations by focusing on language and relationship structures within a culture.
This experiential workshop focuses on leveraging Tribal Leadership to foster transformation, including adopting, scaling, and sustaining Agility while maximizing your use of Scrum, Extreme Programming, Lean Development, and Kanban.
We’ll explore tribes & culture, tribal leadership, and tribal strategy in fueling Agility and the Agile framework & techniques. You will gain awareness of Agility, the Agile framework & techniques, how to assess a group’s cultural stage, lead a group by fostering commitment and alignment, leverage a strategy to foster a self-organizing cross-functional group or team, and transform an organization into a more agile enterprise.
Knowledge of Scrum, Extreme Programming, Lean Development, or Kanban is not a prerequisite!
If you are adopting Agility but not achieving the promised results and a return-on-investment, consider Tribal Leadership!
