Designing High-Performance into our Organisations: What can ScrumMasters, managers and other leaders do to help every team to excel?
My talk this year will focus on Radical Management’s principle number 2: a shift in the role of the manager from a controller to an enabler of self-organizing teams.
It will include:
- what is a high-performance team?
- the key factors for high-performance teams
- organisational design principles for high-performance teams
- what leaders should do to help create an environment in which every team can become a high-performance team
The talk will be aimed at ScrumMasters, coaches and managers in organisations that have already or are considering adopting Agile.
