What are functional managers supposed to do when teams are autonomous and self-managing?
As organisations move towards adopting Lean, Agile, and DevOps ways of working, it raises challenges for existing hierarchies within the organisation.
Teams are supposed to be autonomous now, and self-managing.
While it may not be immediately clear what this means, it is evident that a number of aspects of the functional manager role are affected, and it is understandable that there will be concern.
This tool is designed to help functional managers find an answer to this question in the context of their own particular situation, and to provide a mechanism where mature and informed conversations can be had.
