Agile leaders spend more time on strategy, less on operations .Agile and servant leadership is a suitable approach to dealing with complexity. Complexity — the unknown unknowns determines decision-making processes and is characterized by:
- More unpredictability than predictability.
- Emergent answers.
- Many competing ideas.
- Cause and effect can only be determined in retrospect.
Making informed decisions is more crucial than ever in leading organisations to greatness. Leadership Pulse is a capsule of last’s week’s unfolding dynamics ….a great way to prepare your plans for week ahead.
