Title:
Powerful Powerless Leader
Short synopsis:
Agile Leadership has its unique flavour of natural leadership, when power is not given with a title but taken by a person based on his/her inner abilities. We use Servant Leadership or Powerless Leader to emphasise this difference. If we look deeper into the biology and neuroscience of leadership we might find really unexpected things - that Agile leaders are the ones that are recongnised ny nature and we unconsciously can select these people from the crowd. How to become this type of person? To be an effective Agile leader we need to understand: What makes a leader Leader-Leader Agile Model Difference between a leader and dominant behaviour Hormones and neuroscience of natural leader (with some practice) How to become a person that people will follow Leadership differences and similarities of Scrum Master and Product Owner How to understand what is leader's success

Long synopsis (optional):
This talk was created in 2017 and already presented at 3 conferences. This talk was rated 4.89 (from 5) and got a 2nd place at the Agile Business Conference Moscow 2017 and 4.96 (from 5) at Agile BusConf Kiev 2017. The approach and presentation style received a very warm welcome from the audience and I received several invitations to do this talk at other conferences in 2018. I have the video of this talk only in Russian now, but you might see there that people are sitting on the floor and the atmosphere is great, people are laughing and are actively engaged in the topic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_fK68KfXHg Here is one of feedbacks Ive received after the talk: (original is in Russian and Ive added translation) Maxim Tsepkov, feedback original: Anna Obukhova Powerful Powerless Leader. Анна биолог, ушла в IT, менеджмент, а потом вернулась в психологию на уровне биологии, когда механизмы лидерства доводятся до работы мозга. Тема доклада — сопоставление доминантности и лидерства. Доминантность проявляется в клетке, когда среда безопасна и еды достаточно, и ты доказываешь превосходство через агрессию к своим — в клетке нет доступа к внешнему результату. А лидерство — в дикой природе, когда надо искать пищу и защищаться от врагов, вести по неизвестности. С разбором лидерства, характеризуемого ранговым потенциалом, примативность и витальность, определяемых на физиологическом уровне работы мозга. Превосходно. Maxim Tsepkov Feedback translation. Anna Obukhova, Powerful Powerless Leader. Anna is a biologist who moved to IT, Management and then moved to psychology on biological level, when leadership mechanisms are discussed at the brain and neuroscience level. The topic is about comparing leadership with dominance. Dominance is exposed in the cage, when environment is save and there is enough food and dominant start being aggressive to his colleagues because there is no access to the external result. Leadership is exposed in wild nature where you need to find food and fight predators and navigate in uncertain environment. Anna defined leadership as rank potential, primativity and vitality as components that are reflected at the physiological level of brain function. Perfect.
