Everybody dreams about working with a team that is self-organising and high-performing.
In this talk, you will learn how to apply the principles of Autonomy, Mastery and Purpose
in the context of team building and culture. You will walk away with practical methods to
use these principles to make your team more self-organising.


I will explore:
* How to inject Autonomy into your team through Lean Startup and Product Thinking concepts.
* Instilling Mastery through utilising Agile and Data-Driven decision making. 
* and, how to foster a sense of Purpose through the application of Goal Setting Theory and Vision Alignment.
