Agile leaders of the future: What do they do differently?
summary
Claims that future Agile leaders prioritize emotional intelligence over AI, act as chief energizing officers, and build teams by creating psychological safety litmus tests. Evidence includes a room exercise and ChatGPT output where 90% picked male CEOs and under 10 of 1,000 people named female leaders, a poster distributed to 300,000 IBM staff, a four-option cultural test for how teams react to unknown problems, a weaknesses-to-strengths mapping exercise, and a real-world example where leadership words actively undermined trust.
