Leadership
Leardership and the role of project manager should be starting from the human perspective. It is true that project managers know a lot about delays, the value of resourcing and delivering promised outcomes just in time. It is also true that managing a project is a bundle of technical tasks, while leading a team is based on interaction and dialogue. It is important to be able to keep the big picture while getting things done on a daily basis.
Coaching
Being a coach is the best way to approach innovation management. Coaching approach in leadership helps is finding the inner motivation and talent from your team. It enables self-guided day to day operations and less need for command and control measures. Do not get me wrong, you get what you measure, so following up and being clear on the performance metrics is important in coaching.
Ways of work
Getting rid of micro-management and enabling expertise to grow without limits is also facilitated by the coaching approach to leadership.
Leading and working in online and distributed teams is another topic that many of us are struggling in our daily worklife. It is more or less common to work in hybrid mode for several innovation and development projects. It is a rare luxury to have all the talent in one place at the same time.

Motivation
Knowing and understanding what motivates people is key to success. The easiest way to find out what motivates your customers, clients and contractors is to have a discussion. Contractual liabilities set the framework where we operate, but motivation and interaction determines how far are we going.
Teamwork

Building on the expertise of each team member makes us learn faster, wider and reach our goals in the long run. If you want to go fast. – go alone, but if you want to go far – go togeher.
