Leading
summary
Argues that leadership in agile is situational and demonstrates it with a workshop exercise using Cynefin quadrants: participants place events (alien invasion, missed deadline, critical bug, someone quitting) into obvious/complicated/complex/chaotic domains, then map archetypes (dictator, hero, Gandalf, laissez-faire) to those domains. Claims you must tune style to the system state, combine system awareness and self-awareness, and build trust by “walking the talk.” Practical takeaway: use the quadrant tool to pick a leadership move quickly rather than defaulting to one favorite style.
