Key Takeaways:



•


Agile isn’t just for tech—it’s a mindset built on adaptability, transparency, and continuous learning.




•


“Change is a feature, not a bug.” Accepting uncertainty can reduce stress and improve team trust.




•


Define “for-now decisions.” You don’t have to know everything before acting—adjust as you learn.




•


Leaders can prevent burnout by managing their capacity, not their to-do list.




•


Prioritize tasks by value, not volume—clarity over chaos is key.




•


Vulnerability and empathy in leadership create stronger team cultures during crisis.




•


AI should amplify human agility, not replace it. It helps leaders focus on creative, emotional, and strategic work.




•


Entry-level employees need mentoring to learn critical thinking before over-relying on AI tools.




•


True agility is about pivoting without panic and leading with transparency and trust.
