- 2. #onetime@AgileCamp WHAT DO YOU DO? You told me to
- 6. #onetime@AgileCamp “But first I need to check with…” So…what’s preventing you? So…what worries you? “This is the 5th time this type of ticket has come in, I am going to do a root cause analysis and then I intend to fix the underlying issue, so that we don’t get these tickets anymore.”

Editor's Notes
- Greatest problems solved by passionate unleashed volunteers – Stephen Covey Take a minute and write down “what you do here” on a sticky in front of you. Then go and place it on the large green wall. Have you said: “whatever I am told”, “What THEY tell me to!”, etc. Who is “they?” VIDEO
- Thoughts directed and told Do you ask: Could we?, Do we have permission? Is it ok if…? What should I/we do? This is a Leader-follower environment. Why? - The way it has always been done Why is this ok? Do you ask people to make decisions for you in your personal life? Like: What should I order? Is it ok if I watch… Should I go workout? – You already know the benefit. Prepare yourself Experiment: next time you eat out, let someone else order for you. If this has happened, how did it make you feel? Are you achieving excellence or avoiding making mistakes – What do you need to do to achieve excellence? What is the difference? Activity – Think of a time where you might have been just avoiding making mistakes. How did that feel? Check in the box? How could you have approached it differently? “What is the long term impact of solving other peoples problems?”
- Poll Title: What does being a leader look like? https://www.polleverywhere.com/free_text_polls/upZOImIovgenq4x
- It isn’t a question of can we, but more importantly do you want to be and what does it look like? – open ? To the floor. Looks like – modeling behaviours, finding passion, stop asking for permission, start saying: “I intend to”, “I will…”, “I am…”
- Has this happened? Have you said something like this? Have you heard something like this? Think about the statement. On the note cards on your table: Think about something that is going on in your life/team either professional or personal, write down the statement and what you worry about. Share with someone at your table – try to find someone who isn’t on your team. Discuss how you could change the decision, the presentation of the decision by the words that you use. Use “I intend to…”, “I am going to…”, “I will…”
- How do you feel about everyone being a leader? This does not mean title, but an embodiment of leadership Some things to consider Be curious Ask ?’s Where should authority sit? Authority where information is
- Commitment – we chose to be here…Be PRESENT Courage – Choose to do the right thing, even it might be uncomfortable. Not just doing or saying what you think is right. Admitting mistakes Initiative – we take action w/out direction from above Take charge of your destiny Innovation – Looking at new ways of doing the same thing Protecting people Remember protecting people from the consequences of their mistakes is the path to irresponsibility. It does mean providing the path, tools, to help give them an advantage to accomplish their own achievements. Specify goals not methods
- Changing behaviour is challenging It takes work, practice Don’t expect to make the perfect Hulk cake on your first try Admit your mistakes Be curious. Don’t ask a question with an answer in mind, that isn’t curious. You must be truly curious about the answer. You own your own path, so create it. Stop the “You told me to” or “I just do what I am told” Move the authority to the information. Use declaration statements like “I intent to”, “I will”. Stop checking in with statuses – intentional.
