This is what happens in many classic projects. While some teams are still wondering what they should even start with, others are already thinking about the best way to implement the next step, but are not allowed to act. This is precisely where the problem lies: in projects characterized by hybrid teams, agile methods and constant change, central control can become a brake. Instead of waiting for constant coordination, employees in such teams need the freedom and confidence to act on their own without having to navigate through various hierarchical levels first. Empowerment is the magic word: empowering employees to make decisions, take responsibility and find solutions together. The only question is: how can managers actively shape this change and not only allow empowerment, but promote it in a targeted manner?      <\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_4  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_2  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_84 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/empowerment-in-projects\/#Empowerment_more_than_just_a_buzzword_with_a_feel-good_factor\" >Empowerment: more than just a buzzword with a feel-good factor<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/empowerment-in-projects\/#Why_empowerment_is_crucial_in_the_project_environment\" >Why empowerment is crucial in the project environment<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/empowerment-in-projects\/#Leadership_in_transition_from_controller_to_coach\" >Leadership in transition: from controller to coach<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/empowerment-in-projects\/#Risks_and_pitfalls_of_empowerment\" >Risks and pitfalls of empowerment<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/empowerment-in-projects\/#How_empowerment_works_in_projects\" >How empowerment works in projects<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/empowerment-in-projects\/#Conclusion\" >Conclusion<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Empowerment_more_than_just_a_buzzword_with_a_feel-good_factor\"><\/span>Empowerment: more than just a buzzword with a feel-good factor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For many people, empowerment sounds like office esoterica. However, it is actually based on a serious management approach: employees are consciously empowered to make their own decisions and carry out their tasks with a high degree of personal responsibility. In theory, this sounds simple. In practice, it presents managers with new challenges. Traditional hierarchies, in which the project manager decides everything, only work in exceptional cases. Dynamic projects, agile teams and networked forms of work require quick decisions and flexibility. Empowerment means in this context: As a manager, I don't give up power, I multiply it.      <\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_3  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_empowerment_is_crucial_in_the_project_environment\"><\/span>Why empowerment is crucial in the project environment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>By definition, projects are goal-oriented, complex and often under time and cost pressure. It is therefore important that all team members not only carry out their tasks in a dull manner, but also think for themselves, think outside the box and, above all, act independently. Empowered team members are more motivated, make better decisions and actively contribute their strengths. This is not only good for the team atmosphere, but also has a direct impact on the success of the project.<br \/>An example: In agile projects, e.g. according to <a href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/efficient-teamwork-with-scrum-principles-roles-and-ceremonies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Efficient teamwork with SCRUM: principles, roles and ceremonies\">Scrum<\/a>, empowerment is already an integral part because the team organizes itself, the product owner makes technical decisions and the Scrum Master removes obstacles. In other words, responsibility is distributed. And agile project management actually works extremely well in most cases.     <\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_4  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Leadership_in_transition_from_controller_to_coach\"><\/span>Leadership in transition: from controller to coach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This fundamentally changes the role of the manager. Instead of being a controlling authority, they are becoming a coach or a person of trust. This sounds romantic at first, but it is a highly strategic development. Because empowerment does not mean \u201cdo something\u201d, but rather: \u201cYou can do this and I will make sure that you can.\u201d<br \/>This involves three central tasks that a manager should take on:   <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Create transparency:<\/strong> Everyone in the team must know at all times where the project stands, what the goal is and how to get there. Because only if the individual team members know all the necessary data can they make good decisions quickly. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Skills development:<\/strong> Those tasked with making decisions must not only know the right information, but also have the necessary tools to do so. This means that employees must be trained in all the skills they need to make well-founded decisions. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Living trust:<\/strong> Empowerment fails when leadership cannot let go. This means that control should be replaced by clarity. Only if a manager trusts their employees completely can employees have the confidence to make decisions without the manager and without fear of making mistakes.  <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_5  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Risks_and_pitfalls_of_empowerment\"><\/span>Risks and pitfalls of empowerment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As great as empowerment sounds at first, it is important to understand that it is not a free pass to simply act as you please. It is therefore important that clear roles, processes and expectations are defined to avoid chaos. Empowerment therefore requires a defined framework:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Clear goals:<\/strong> Without a defined direction, self-organization cannot take place. Therefore, goals and expectations must be precisely defined in advance. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Common rules of the game:<\/strong> To avoid conflicts within the team, it is also important to define who is allowed to make which decisions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Error culture:<\/strong> Empowered teams must also be allowed to fail without fear of recrimination, as mistakes contribute to the learning process. A good <a href=\"https:\/\/parm.com\/en\/embracing-mistakes-in-leadership-the-crucial-role-of-a-positive-error-culture-in-corporate-success\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Embracing Mistakes in Leadership: The Crucial Role of a Positive Error Culture in Corporate Success\">error culture<\/a> is therefore of the utmost importance. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Consistency:<\/strong> A popular misconception about empowerment is that it can be a one-off act and does not have to be an ongoing management style. Unfortunately, you can't empower people once and then take responsibility again the next time a crisis arises. Not only do you lose the trust of the team, you also lose credibility.  <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_6  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_empowerment_works_in_projects\"><\/span>How empowerment works in projects<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>What can managers do in concrete terms? Here are a few tried and tested approaches: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Delegation with purpose:<\/strong> Tasks should not just be assigned. Rather, it is important to communicate them with purpose and impact so that employees know what they should focus on. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Define decision-making scope and roles:<\/strong> Clear decision-making grids and role definitions help to avoid conflicts and uncertainties.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Promote the development of skills:<\/strong> In order for team members to act independently, they need both technical and social skills. It is therefore important to first check whether they already have all the necessary skills and to offer training if important skills are missing. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Establish feedback and learning loops:<\/strong> Just as in agile projects, it is also important to schedule regular retrospectives in the team in order to further develop empowerment and the team.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Transparency through tools:<\/strong> Whether project progress, responsibilities or deadlines - it is important that all team members have access to the data that is important to them. Project management software, for example, can help to document such information and make it available to the team at all times. <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_5  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_5  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_7  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Empowerment is not a nice-to-have, but a must-have in modern projects.
