six free ideas to improve agile success
DESCRIPTION
Free? Is anything free these days? Based on her experience working with organizational leaders and her research into what drives organizational performance, Pollyanna Pixton shares six ideas—and the keys to their effective implementation—to help assure the success of your agile teams. As a bonus, her suggestions won’t cost you a thing. Pollyanna’s first free idea is how to create a culture of trust—the keystone of open collaboration—within your team and organization. The second free idea is about ownership—how to give it and not take it back. Third is empowering teams to make decisions by helping them understand and internalize the project and product’s purpose and value. Number four—you can only fix processes, not people. Invest your energy toward the correct target. Idea five is to match people’s roles to their passion. Her final free idea is that integrity matters most. Explore with Pollyanna why each of these ideas is important and how you can adopt them on your agile team.TRANSCRIPT
