Hook, Line and Sinker - the role of line management in relation to Agile teams
Add to calendarAgile project teams in any large corporation are put together by drawing resources from various organisational silos where they report to line management. What’s the role of this line management in relation to the Agile project teams? Who is ultimately responsible for delivery?
This talk is based on the two year Agile journey in a large financial services organization in Australia and will outline the challenges, pitfalls and experiences of positioning line management to add value to Agile teams. What leadership role do they play and are they the bane or boon of Agile teams.
This will be a 35 min presentation using real life case stories (all names disguised of course), and examples from our change journey. 10 minutes will be reserved at the end for questions and answers.
