Abstract:
The challenges of the managers in the Agile world are many and complicated.
Most of them can no longer lean on the historical managing authority in order to motivate, make decisions or solve conflicts and therefore often feel redundant/useless. They are not sure what is their added value and therefore needs to acquire a new identity and skills that will assist them and their team to achieve success. They need to reinvent their role in becoming Enabling Managers. Enabling their employees to feel meaningful, to express their thoughts, to realizing their capabilities and fulfill themselves.
The workshop will be followed with simulations, games and hands-on exercises, and will be highly interactive. Participants will be expected to bring in challenges from their day-to-day work and time will be allocated to go over these challenges and provide skills and know-how participants can apply in their workplace immediately.
