Top 20 2016 pduOTD Reader Favorites – #19

Online Webinar – Recorded December 13th 2012
Activity Type: Education – Online or Digital Media 1 Hour 1 PDU
Online Course – Slides file From – Seattle Scrum Gathering
Presented by: Mountain Goat Software (REP # 3102)

One of the challenges of agile is coming to grips with the role of leaders and managers of self-organizing teams. Many go to the extreme of refusing to exert any influence on their teams at all. Others retain too much of a command-and-control style.

Leading a self-organizing team can be a fine line.

In this session you will learn the proper ways to influence the path taken by a team to solving the problems given to it. You will learn how to become comfortable in this role. You’ll understand why influencing a self-organizing team is neither sneaky nor inappropriate but is necessary.

Presenter: Mike Cohn (LinkedIn profile) is the founder of Mountain Goat Software, where he teaches and coaches on Scrum and agile development. He is the author of Succeeding with Agile: Software Development Using Scrum, also Agile Estimating and Planning, and User Stories Applied: For Agile Software Development.
