Value servant leadership

In Chapter 5, Introduction to Agile Considerations, you were provided with multiple examples of servant leadership in the context of a coach or a Scrum master. These days, there are lots of opportunities to practice servant leadership, whether you are working on a hybrid project or a full Agile or predictive life cycle. Determining the appropriate style and practicing servant leadership is always a work in progress but conceptually, it regards the desire to lead rather than manage and the options to build a high-performing team and work as a communicator, facilitator, and coach. That's not to say we aren't tied to our desks, occasionally updating dashboards and Gantt charts. That's management, and we need that too. The value of servant leadership and building high-performing teams is that no matter what type of project you are working on, you will work in a support role and allow the team to self-organize around the work.
