Abstract/Description

Empowering the team requires a very different approach to leadership. An empowered team has the authority and responsibility to make decisions, rather than needing to approval or instructions from a manager. The team itself self-organizes around a leader instead of reporting to a manager.

This session describes a number of leadership styles and how these apply to the various roles people play on an agile team.
