Abstract

The complexity of today’s projects requires interdisciplinary cooperation in the majority of cases. In order for this to succeed, the project manager needs a healthy amount of leadership competence to give his team the right impulses, both in the agile and in the traditional approach. In this chapter, the authors Jürg Kuster, Christian Bachmann, Mike Hubmann, Robert Lippmann, and Patrick Schneider cover the relevant aspects of leadership in a project, such as agreeing on tasks, competence and responsibility, motivation, effective delegation, as well as dealing with power and authority. Other aspects such as self-organisation or the central competence of negotiation are also covered in depth. The topics are structured according to their relevance for the agile and the traditional approach.
