Summary

Keeping an agile team on its creative edge comes with the risk of veering off course. To keep the team on its creative edge and the project on track in a positive direction, the agile manager needs to be able to continuously monitor the project, understand the effects of the Agile Project Management (APM) practices, and constantly learn from and adapt to change. The objectives of the Adaptive Leadership practice are to track and monitor the project for timely and relevant feedback, institute systemic procedures for learning and adaptation, and to help the agile manager maintain a leadership presence that animates the team. The activities for this practice are divided into two categories: double-loop learning and embodied leadership.
