The bottom line to a agile (self organizing high performing) team is constant flow of energy. This guarantees optimal pace of quality deliverables.
To maintain this creative equilibrium, leaders can look at”Engaging” directly or “Enable” individuals or by “Empowering” the team without compromising team autonomy.
As a leader
When you “Engage” its not about you, its about the team / individual
When you “Enable” its not about who / what .. Its about Why
When you “Empower” its not about it being leaving for the team’s choice but its about setting the right stage / context for them to act.
