Title:
Result Authorising Tool: how to protect your Agile team from fear of failure
Short synopsis:
How does your team react to a failure or a mistake? There is no much choice - our brain reacts with stress and if we don't use tools to rewire how we think about a failure we will harm the internal motivation of our team. In this workshop, we will dig into the brain and use applied neuroscience to identify 3 main components that keep motivation in the brain and one hidden ingredient without that the whole thing will just not work. To experience how this works we will practice Result Authorising tool that can be used to reduce the fear of failure and keep team motivated. It links all these components together and helps to identify how your team identifies the result. This might be the main Scrum Master's tool that needs to be added in team practice to build resistance to failure and add energy and internal motivation.

In this workshop, we will dig into the brain and use applied neuroscience to identify 3 main components that keep motivation in the brain and one hidden ingredient without that the whole thing will just not work. To experience how this works we will practice Result Authorising tool that can be used to reduce the fear of failure and keep a team motivated even in difficult times. It links all these components together and helps to identify how your team identifies the result. This might be the main Scrum Master's tool that needs to be added in team practice to build resistance to failure and add energy and internal motivation. Learning Outcomes Participants will: - Understand how motivation is established in the brain (dopamine pathways) and how failure is processed Guess why boredom is even worse than stress and what we can do with that Learn that our brain is a perfect prediction machine and how we use that for team motivation and how it can easily demotivate if it is used incorrectly - Summarise 3 main components of Agile team motivation in a simple framework that can be used - Practice Result Authorising tool: as the result participants will find the way how to coach a team to make success noticeable and failure not that damaging - Understand the hidden ingredient without that the whole motivation system will not work (using neuroscience explanation) - this is the freedom of choice and this is the core of an Agile motivation mindset. Mechanics and Details 0 - 5.00 - Introduction, about Anna's experience and Neuroleadership and Applied Neuroscience approach that she uses 5.00 - 10. 00 how motivation is established in the brain (dopamine pathways) and how failure is processed. How failure affects psychological safety for the team 10.00 - 12.00 What happens when we have a boring task - it is the same as high stress and motivation is blocked 12.00- 15.00 Our brain as a perfect prediction machine (with some unexpected effects) - how we use it for team motivation? 15.00 - 20.00 Putting all together - 3 main ingredients - intention (anticipation), emotional tone (psychological environment), result authorizing - framework presentation. One hidden ingredient without that motivation will not be formed in the brain - the freedom of choice.
