For some organizations, this change comes easily with the implementation of agile, but for others, the change from top-down command and control to one of empowerment is difficult. It\u2019s not as simple as implementing a new way of completing work. As the agile leader, it\u2019s your job to empower the various teams within your organization and remove impediments keeping the team from delivering value. By empowering the team and individuals, leaders often find their employees are happier and provide more value to the organization.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, we\u2019ll look at the various elements agile leaders need in order to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/five-steps-for-scaling-agile-in-your-enterprise\/\">successfully scale agile across their organizations<\/a>. First, let\u2019s look at the role leadership plays in scaling agile and why agile leadership is an essential component of organizational agility.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/become-the-agile-leader-your-organization-needs\/#Your_Role_as_the_Agile_Leader\" >Your Role as the Agile Leader<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/become-the-agile-leader-your-organization-needs\/#What_Makes_a_Good_Agile_Leader\" >What Makes a Good Agile Leader?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/become-the-agile-leader-your-organization-needs\/#What_Do_Agile_Leaders_Do\" >What Do Agile Leaders Do?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/become-the-agile-leader-your-organization-needs\/#Building_an_Agile_Organization_That_Thrives\" >Building an Agile Organization That Thrives<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_Role_as_the_Agile_Leader\"><\/span>Your Role as the Agile Leader<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Scaling agile throughout the enterprise directly correlates to opportunities for better market share, position and dominance. And, this shift often increases morale throughout the organization, as people feel more connected to the work delivered.<\/p>\n<p>Still a skeptic? Successful companies like Netflix and Spotify deliver value to their customers with an agile mindset as their backdrop. Companies like Amazon and USAA have integrated agile into their existing business models and benefitted tremendously. It\u2019s no coincidence that many of the top business leaders around the world endorse agile methods and the associated benefits.<\/p>\n<p>Organizations that are adaptive, innovative, and capable of keeping up with consumer expectations in a dynamic global economy are in a position to beat both new, start-up organizations and legacy enterprises. In order to be successful as a manager in an agile organization, you must embrace this new way of leadership.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2018\/05\/agile-at-scale\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">studies conducted by the Harvard Business Review<\/a>, scaling agile across an entire organization is beneficial to the overall company value. But there\u2019s a caveat. Businesses who scale too quickly or try to scale aggressively, without a clear goal in mind, are more likely to fail. That\u2019s because there\u2019s \u201cno one-size-fits-all approach\u201d to agile. Not every department benefits from going all-in with agile. At the very least, organizations need to understand agile to its fullest and then determine the parts or pieces of agile to implement first. It\u2019s the job of the agile leader to recognize this when scaling agile across the organization.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, agile leadership\u2019s primary objective is to create cohesion between <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scaledagileframework.com\/agile-teams\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">agile-driven teams<\/a> and non-agile teams to ensure communication across all parts of the organization. Agile leaders must understand and see impediments that will hinder the release of value and work hard to remove those impediments and help the team prioritize and deliver the highest value work first.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/info.planview.com\/agile-leadership-_ebook_lad_en_reg.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10595\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Become-the-Agile-leader-750x200.jpg\" alt=\"Become the Agile Leader your Organization Needs eBook\" width=\"957\" height=\"246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Become-the-Agile-leader-750x200.jpg 778w, https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Become-the-Agile-leader-750x200-300x77.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Become-the-Agile-leader-750x200-768x197.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Become-the-Agile-leader-750x200-750x193.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 957px) 100vw, 957px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Makes_a_Good_Agile_Leader\"><\/span>What Makes a Good Agile Leader?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve looked at the role leadership plays when scaling agile across the organization, let\u2019s examine the qualities needed for a successful agile leader. While there are a number of traits that a successful agile leader should have, two of the most important are <strong>flexibility<\/strong> and <strong>adaptability<\/strong>. Agile ways of working move from the traditional hierarchical roles between teams and managers to a flatter organization. As such, agile leaders must move from traditional command-and-control to providing a support system for the employees reporting into him or her.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Instead of determining how work is done, agile leaders should adopt the role of a \u201cservant leader\u201d that empowers teams to succeed. This leader must put the needs of the employees first and help develop talent, allowing people to do their best work. At its core, servant leaders serve the people and foster team autonomy to deliver meaningful work. This is in direct contrast to the traditional managerial approach that gives leaders the role of commander, rather than facilitator.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Team autonomy is core to agile. Team members need their agile leader to provide strategic direction and priority to then allow them to deliver the highest value work first. With leadership\u2019s guidance, team members provide input on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The prioritization of tasks within the feature and\/or story;<\/li>\n<li>How to mitigate bottlenecks and impediments; and<\/li>\n<li>How work is delivered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But this will not happen if leaders micromanage their teams. This is why it\u2019s important for agile leaders to understand their role within an agile organization. Rather than providing specific directions and tasks, an agile leader\u2019s primary role is monitoring progress and exploring ways to help teams succeed. Agile leaders must avoid managing team members directly and instead approach situations as a learning opportunity for both themselves and the team member(s).<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Do_Agile_Leaders_Do\"><\/span>What Do Agile Leaders Do?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>By now, you already know that agile leaders are responsible for empowering teams to work independently, while providing strategic direction. But what does this actually look like in action?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Generally speaking, agile leaders are expected to focus on three primary objectives:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To create an environment where learning and experimentation are encouraged and celebrated;<\/li>\n<li>To build an organization that facilities teamwork and cooperation with all team members, across all levels of an organization; and<\/li>\n<li>To design an organizational structure that prioritizes the previous two objectives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The agile leader plays the role of coach and architect. They help create a workplace culture of sharing and improvement and build the framework to support. All three of these objectives are required in order to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/scale-agile-delivery-within-your-organisation\/\">scale agile across an organization<\/a>. When these three objectives are embraced by leadership, teams have the support and systems needed to maximize creativity and innovation in a way that helps them succeed in today\u2019s professional landscape.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Building_an_Agile_Organization_That_Thrives\"><\/span>Building an Agile Organization That Thrives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Effective agile leadership is about creating a workplace philosophy that can be tailored to fit the needs of all departments within a company. Even non-agile teams within the organization benefit from an agile leader, by receiving strategic direction and empowerment to deliver value.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, we looked at what makes a good agile leader.
