\u201cAs a team leader, you will become more successful and valuable if you are no longer a bottleneck for the people who are working with you and under you."

Roy Osherove is the author of \u201cElastic Leadership\u201d and \u201cThe Art of Unit Testing\u201d. In this episode, we discussed leadership insights from \u201cElastic Leadership\u201d. Roy first shared how he came up with the concept and described what elastic leadership is. He explained the different leadership styles based on the 3 team phases (survival mode, learning mode, and self-organizing mode) and advised how leaders can adapt and transition their leadership style from one phase to the other to lead effectively. Roy also shared about the Team Leader manifesto and the Line Manager manifesto to provide guidance on how leaders can grow their teams towards self-organization and self-sufficiency.
