Selforganisation needs Leadership
summary
Argues that teams fail when methods lack leadership and gives concrete fixes: start with an invitation with constraints (example: transparent budget €50k and 30 days), use an open‑space marketplace with roles like host, bumblebee and butterfly, apply the law of two feet so people self‑assign and move, keep distinct responsibilities for product owner vs scrum master, build a protective circle of safety, and prioritize values — especially focus, openness, courage — to achieve high alignment plus autonomy.
