Apr 19, 2023
Peter Maddison and Dave Sharrock

 This week Peter and Dave decided to delve into  questions that have come up in workshops with senior leaders. Some of the questions they consider are How can we bring senior leadership along on the journey? What are the leaders showing through their actions? How do we measure the success of a leader's contribution?This episode emphasized the crucial role that executive leadership support plays in the success of an agile transformation and encouraged leaders to lead by example and show their commitment to the change.

This week's takeaways:

  • A leader's success should also be measured by their availability and response time to team members.
  • Growing leaders around them is a sign of a great leader.
  • Safety in tough decisions is important for leaders to create a safe conversation.
  • It's important for leaders to recognize and grow the people around them to create the next generation of leaders.
