About the talk:
We’ve all been there: your grassroots Agile movement is going great, but the real success that comes from systemic change is being blocked by antipattern leadership behaviours. Everyone knows leadership desperately needs some coaching. Unfortunately, accessing your fearless leaders seems nigh impossible… and when you do finally get time with them the messages don’t quite seem to land.
In this talk, we will cover:
- Tips for getting in the door with your leadership team
- Tips for success once you’ve established a coaching relationship
- What you definitely want to avoid
