Effecting Change: The Art of Leading Teams
PRESENTED BY
Venkat Subramaniam
Founder @ Agile Developer, Inc.
As leaders we want our teams to pursue great ideas and change directions to realize the goals. However, often we find it hard to implement changes. At times there seems to be resistance or at least reluctance to change. Why can't the team see the benefits of where we're headed and move fast to realize the goals?
Let's step back to look at the challenges of effecting change and how we can lead teams towards successful transition.
