Leading with Mission in Agile, Virtual, Self‑Managed Teams - A Pilot Project of the
summary
A five-month field pilot with 40 people in five mixed teams tested a ‘‘mission-only, no-hierarchy’’ approach: teams remove visible ranks, receive only assigned missions, and self-organize to learn on the job. The project created a closed Elias learning space, two short films, shared learning diaries and ‘‘expertise tandems’’ where whoever knows more leads tasks; early results report practical practices and gaps in higher-order competencies, with a formal evaluation due in June.
