Description

Are these questions familiar?

  • “What manager behaviors can undermine Holacracy adoptions?” 
  • “How can you get alignment without what-by-whens?”
  • “What should you measure to keep your team on track?”

Lead Link Fundamentals is an online course designed to answer these questions and more. You also get peer learning and expert coaching so that you can lead your circle with confidence.

Lead Links’ attitudes are crucial to the success of a Holacracy adoption. But most organizations end up focusing on meetings. The Lead Link’s vital role in supporting self-management often goes neglected.

In this course, Lead Links will unlearn old habits and build new ones. You’ll learn to support engagement and autonomy. You’ll build your ability to meet Lead Link-specific accountabilities. And you’ll gain skills to increase circle alignment without conventional management tactics.
