Deep dives
Empowerment in an Agile Environment
In the context of agility, empowerment involves two key entities: the Empowera and the Empoweree, typically a self-managed team. The beliefs held by the Empowera must revolve around trusting the team's capabilities to solve challenges without constant oversight.
