Leading without formal authority

Leadership and authority are frequently mistaken. To lead, you don't need a title or a position. Leadership is defined by your actions, not your role within the organization. How we behave, communicate, act, support others, and deliver results matters.

Toby Rao's engaging talk challenges traditional thinking and delves into the true meaning of leadership in the modern workplace. He discusses ideas and practices that promote distributed leadership and decentralized decisions in Agile projects.

You will learn how to develop capabilities to encourage, convince, and influence team members. Attendees will learn how to earn credibility, communicate, lead, motivate action, and make an impact through influence.

Is leadership synonymous with authority?
To lead, do you really need a formal title or a position?

If you are curious to know the answers, and if you want to be successful in your agile career, regardless of your job title, you must attend Toby's talk at Agile & Beyond 2023!
