February 2026 Lunch & Learn (virtual)

 

Subject: Servant Leadership in Agile Environments

 

Agile teams thrive when leaders focus on enabling people rather than directing tasks. This session explores servant leadership as a cornerstone of Agile success—shifting leadership from command-and-control to coaching, trust, and empowerment. We’ll discuss how Agile leaders remove impediments, foster psychological safety, and help teams deliver value sustainably.

This session examines how servant leadership enables high-performing Agile teams by focusing on empowerment, trust, and removing obstacles. Learn practical ways Agile leaders can support teams, encourage ownership, and deliver business value more effectively.

Through real-world IT examples, participants will learn practical behaviors that support self-organizing teams, improve collaboration, and drive continuous improvement in fast-changing environments.
