Adopting a new style

Participating

• Supporting the workflow• Removing Barriers to work• Assisting defining the process of work

Delegating

• Defining the Outcome• Agreeing the monitoring process• Accepting the finished items

• Usually seen as best practice for leading an agile team• The best way to lead a team is to be its servant• The focus is on:

Empowerment Collaboration Facilitation

• How much this can be used depends on context• Nothing in PRINCE2 limits the use of Servant Leadership. • Working Agreements
