Mindset Shifts Required to Become and Amazing Agile Leader

The goal of this webinar is to explore different mindset shifts to become an Amazing Agile Leader.

Leadership agility is the ability to anticipate change and make effective decisions in complex, uncertain, and rapidly changing conditions. Agile leaders act with purpose and self-awareness, collaborating with stakeholders, while learning from experience to develop creative solutions. Leaders are responsible and adaptive. They create a safe space to experiment, take risks and respond in ways that enhance relationships, drives innovation and meaningful results that brings about change to be successful in today’s business environment.

Product development is a fickle business. Everyone wants something, but it's hard to navigate the forest through the trees. Opinions run rampant. Needs and demands seem to conflict one another. And there is always more functional expectation than there is capacity.

Agile product management has provided techniques, patterns, and mindsets that have proven useful in navigating your course through these mazes. And Anu Smalley is an experienced guide who has been helping organizations and teams be successful for years.

Anu will explore the 5 Ps of Product Ownership.

Product - Vision-setting is a critical initial focal point—beginning with the end in mind.
People - Team chartering - to build a good product we need a good team
Patron - Customers comes first
Past - We need to learn to inspect and adapt and learn from the past with an eye to the future
Passion - Product Ownership needs a passion around the first

In this session we will dive deeper into the 5 Ps that will help you become better Product Owners.
