What´s the secret behind effective Tribal leadership? From Agile Alliance you can read an experience report describing " The journey of an agile leadership team - the power of three ". This report explains how ING in Netherlands introduces a new virtual leadership team to support the squads - the Product Owner (PO), the Chapter Lead (CL) and the Agile Coach (AC). The most interesting thing for me is how this leadership team split their responsibilities in order to create drive and motivation in the organisation. They use inspiration from one of my favorite books and authors; "Drive - the surprising truth about what motivates us" written by Dan Pink. This book explains the ingredients needed in order to create motivated employees in "modern organisations" - Purpose, Mastery and Autonomy . In short: The Product Owner is responsible for explaining the Purpose of everything the squad are doing linked to overall goals and vision The Chapter Lead is responsibl...

What is specific with Lean-Agile leadership ? From SAFe home page you can read more about the cornerstones of Lean-Agile leadership . I would like to emphasize three components that are close to my heart - emotional intelligence, growth mindset and organizational change management practices. First , as a Lean-Agile leader you need to "Lead by Example". In order to do this you need to " model behaviors that foster a generative culture ".

I am a certified coach within the Emotional Intelligence framework EQ-i 2.0 and I strongly believe every leader has to understand this set of skills that has been defined within the positive psych...

We have had a warm and sunny July in the south of Sweden - now it is time to think about autumn activities like going back to work.  One way af getting a good start after summer is to follow the Happiness calendar from Greater Good Science Center , part of Berkeley university.

In our last TietoEVRY global leadership call before the summer we had an inspirational session with Lucy Adams from Disruptive HR who has introduced the EACH model - "Employees as Adults, Consumers and Human Beings".
