Building new scrum teams with driven, smart people can jump start a team’s success, but more often than not, scrum masters “inherit” established teams who may need a kick start.
In this workshop, we will discuss Stephen Covey’s Four Disciplines of Execution and how teams can use them to set and achieve goals. It’s a simple framework that distills the simplicity of the Scrum framework to its most essential parts, and refocuses and re-energizes teams to achieve their full potential.
The document introduces Liberating Structures (LS), which are simple group activities designed to include more people in shaping the future. It provides an overview of LS and then demonstrates several specific LS, including:
- Impromptu Networking, which allows people to rapidly share challenges while building connections.
- 1-2-4-All, where participants generate ideas alone, then in pairs, groups of 4, and finally all together, focusing on the best ideas.
- TRIZ, where participants identify counterproductive behaviors and ways to "stop" them to make space for innovation.
- 15% Solutions, which focuses on small actions anyone can take now using their current resources and authority.
The document discusses agility enablement and unlocking enterprise agility. It defines agility as an organization's capability to sense, adapt, and respond to a dynamic environment. The document presents four key aspects: (1) understanding the enterprise as a living organism, (2) understanding agility as a capability, (3) understanding agility enablement, and (4) how to be an agility enabler. It argues that agility is always present and the goal is to identify constraints and remove them to enhance the organization's agility capability. An agility enabler works to sustain boosters and minimize inhibitors that influence various enterprise elements like leadership, culture, systems and design.

1) The document describes various "Liberating Structures" that can be used to improve meetings and make them more productive by getting everyone engaged and contributing ideas.
2) Some of the structures mentioned include impromptu networking to build connections, 1-2-4-All to have everyone contribute ideas progressively, and minimum specifications to focus only on the most important requirements.
3) Conventional meeting structures tend to be too controlled from the top-down or too loose, but liberating structures aim to distribute responsibility more widely and engage participants in shaping solutions.
https://www.wrike.com/blog/tag/okr/ - OKR (Objectives and Key Results) is a planning and goal setting technique made famous by Intel and Google. OKRs represent aggressive goals and define the measurable steps you’ll take towards achieving those goals. This presentation walks you through why and how you can use OKRs to power your business.
This document summarizes a presentation on self leadership, influence, and impact. It discusses technical skills, execution ability, collaboration capability, and influence as important factors. It then covers topics like self-awareness, intention, self-confidence, self-efficacy, influence, and impact. The presentation emphasizes taking control and responsibility over your own outcomes rather than feeling like a passenger. It encourages developing an internal "locus of control".

The document discusses systems thinking and its importance for organizational change, providing definitions and concepts of systems thinking including that a system is made up of interconnected parts, and that the structure of relationships between parts determines system behavior. It also outlines 11 laws of systems thinking and characteristics of a systems thinker, emphasizing seeing interdependencies and considering how mental models shape the future.
Systems Thinking with the Ball Point Game - A&B 2019Jeff Kosciejew
This document introduces systems thinking concepts through an exercise called the Ball Point Game. It defines a system as a network of interdependent components working together toward a common aim. Systems thinking views relationships rather than isolated parts and sees how parts interact rather than analyzing them separately. The document uses the Ball Point Game to demonstrate these concepts, where teams pass balls through their members according to rules while aiming to improve their score. It discusses analyzing the game and one's work as a system and addresses how the interactions of parts produce emergent behavior.
Ability to influence 360 degrees, is one of the most relevant abilities for the new gen professional. With the world swarmed with information and opinions from all around the power to influence and sell your point is of paramount value.
The Prime Directive. How To Charter Your Team Best (With LEGO Serious Play)Michael Tarnowski
Team chartering is generally used at the start of a project only, and team charters tend to be quite general and abstract.
In this hands-on session of Agile Cambridge Conference 2015, we will use the 'Lego Serious Play' method to develop a team-specific team charter, which fits individual team goals and can be adapted continuously.
The document discusses leadership during times of crisis. It notes that after economic recessions, the mix of urgency, high stakes and uncertainty becomes the new normal. Crises merely set the stage for ongoing challenges. Effective crisis leadership has two phases - an emergency phase to stabilize the situation, and an adaptive phase to tackle the underlying causes and build capacity. Adaptive leaders do not "hunker down" but instead seize opportunities to "hit the reset button." The adaptive phase requires fostering adaptation, embracing disequilibrium, and generating leadership at all levels through experimentation. It also stresses the importance of leaders taking care of themselves by finding outlets to debrief, reflect and maintain perspective during difficult times.
The document outlines 8 critical steps for creating successful organizational change: 1) Establishing a sense of urgency, 2) Forming a powerful guiding coalition, 3) Creating a vision, 4) Communicating the vision, 5) Empowering others to act on the vision, 6) Planning for and creating short-term wins, 7) Consolidating improvements and producing still more change, 8) Institutionalizing new approaches. It notes that leadership involves partnership, changing people emotionally, and that companies must change or die when faced with new stages in their life cycle.

Feedback is commonly perceived as something that everyone is able to do – who doesn’t have an opinion? However, it’s also very easy to give bad feedback: we all know it when we are on the receiving end. This gets more and more evident when the team grows from two people to a whole company.
Feedback thus becomes a critical skill that can be learned, improved, and mastered. Good feedback skills can improve the quality of the teamwork and the result by a large margin, while bad feedback can grind any team to a halt with confusion if not worse.
This talk will give insights, challenge myths, and provide practical ideas. How can we improve ourselves? How can we plan good feedback in groups?
Are you running a truly cohesive team in your business?
It takes effort to build a cohesive team, but the process does not have to be complicated and the rewards can be great. In fact, keeping it simple is essential. Based on the best-selling book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni, this deck aims to provide a clear, concise and practical guide to improving your team
Strategy = Execution. 4DX is an execution system that recommends the use of 4 disciplines to define goals, create clarity on actions needed and visible scorecard to stay on track.
The concept was popularized by the book 4 Disciplines of Execution by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, and Jim Huling.
This eBook will teach you proven strategies for setting goals that will inspire you and your team to make things happen in your organization. It explains how to use the theory of goal setting to set practical targets for you and your team members.
You will learn:
The theories that underpin goal setting and motivation.
The two most popular goal setting methods, 4CF and SMART.
How to turn aspirations into clear ‘goal statements’.
The key to persuading team members to buy into the goals you set.
How to recognize situations where traditional goal setting won’t work.
Self-leadership involves having a clear sense of identity and direction, and the ability to influence one's own emotions and behaviors to achieve goals. The document discusses developing mental toughness and releasing past resentments. It emphasizes seeing past limiting beliefs through practices like meditation. The acronym SHINE represents keys to self-mastery: seeing clearly, being silent, meditating, and experiencing oneself without limits. Health, inspiration from others, strong family relationships, and continually improving one's lifestyle are presented as important for leadership. True success is defined not by titles or possessions, but by one's positive impact.
This workshop is based on the book the power of habit. If you like the workshop, please buy Charles Duhigg book to learn about the theory behind this. (And read his stories & examples)
