I want to challenge you to embrace a different way of thinking and leading. I want you to embrace your unique point of view. Especially if it runs against the grain of accepted thinking.

Why are we afraid of the word “do”? We have to talk about accountability and commitment in the world of agile leadership. I read more and more about not using the word do – as in “what did you do yesterday/what will you do today”. I think its never been more important to walk the talk, make big promises, and actually deliver on them every single time.

Let’s look at how language and attitudes in the agile community are changing, and why it’s crucial to go beyond just following the scrum guide if we want to truly succeed. I’ll be getting real about the need for each of us to step up, take the reins, and fearlessly pursue excellence in everything we do.

Join me as we unpack the idea of true freedom and autonomy in agile leadership, and what it really takes to stand out in this fast-paced world. Get ready for a no-nonsense, down-to-earth discussion that’s sure to leave you fired up and ready to tackle your agile leadership challenges head-on!

Can you handle an honest look at why Agile fails? The reason is often OUR failure to uphold its core principles. I share a story – one you can probably relate to – that illustrates the tendency to focus on the wrong aspects of Agile. This leads to missed opportunities to solve challenging problems. By shining a light on the human nature aspects of agile, I underscore the significance of addressing tough questions and harnessing the power of Agile practices to deliver tangible value. This episode served as an eye-opening exploration of the underlying human problems that often contribute to Agile challenges, offering valuable insights and lessons for both leaders and practitioners striving to navigate and master the Agile landscape.
