Guide on Empowering the Team for PMI-ACP: Lean Software Development

Empowering the team is a crucial principle in Lean Software Development.

Why is it important?
Empowering the team means giving them the autonomy to make decisions in the course of the project. This fosters creativity, encourages taking ownership of tasks, and enhances problem-solving skills. Empowered teams often display higher commitment and productivity.

What is it?
Empowering the team refers to creating an environment where team members are trusted with responsibilities and are allowed to take decisions about their work without being micromanaged.

How it works?
This can be achieved by removing bureaucratic hurdles, providing the necessary resources and support, and fostering an atmosphere of trust and respect.

Exam Tips: Answering Questions on Empowering the Team
In the PMI-ACP exam, you may encounter questions focusing on scenarios where you need to decide whether a team is empowered or not. Your answers should align with the core principles of Lean Software Development, such as respecting people and their decisions, providing them with opportunities to learn and grow, and creating a safe environment for them to innovate and experiment.
Key points to remember:
Empowered teams are proactive, take ownership, and cater for their own needs. They trust in their abilities and those of their colleagues. They can set their own goals and manage their own time and work.
The role of management in an empowered team is facilitative and supportive rather than directive.
