They explore the idea of “leading from love,” self-acceptance, and how leadership starts with understanding and trusting oneself. Lenka shares insights from her career in Agile coaching and Project Management, reflecting on personal growth and the value of human connections in leadership. They also discuss the significance of the Rumi quote, “As you start to walk on the way, the way appears,” relating it to agile transformation, innovation, and building a purposeful work environment.
