Welcome to the preparatory phase of our upcoming workshop, "Managing Self-Managed Teams." This workshop is designed for leaders, managers, and team members who are navigating the evolving landscape of modern management practices. As we move towards a future where autonomy, empowerment, and flexibility are at the forefront, understanding how to effectively guide and interact with self-managed teams becomes increasingly crucial.

In this pre-reading material, we delve into various aspects of management theories and practices that have shaped the way we understand and lead teams today. This content will serve as a foundation for the activities and discussions we will engage in during the workshop.
