Tina Abdoo, VP at Amway shares how agile is a way to thrive in an ever-changing marketplace.
Why it matters to a leader
- Your team is happier!
- Your team is more stable, predictable and autonomous, so you can have higher confidence in the things you commit to.
Challenges you can expect during transformation
- You will experience ups, downs, forward momentum, back sliding and forward progress again. Persevere.
- The myth that we don't need KPI's and metrics anymore - we do, they're just different.
- Fear of measurement (aka metrics) leading to judgment
Common mistakes leaders make
- Leaders and managers trying to fix things for the team - getting in to the details and providing the answers of "do it this way" instead of contributing their idea as an option - not the only way.
- We forget that this is a cultural movement. Closely tied to a growth mindset, we must cange the way people think about and see their work.
