If the team understands that Miranda will have a successful outcome, whether in a small task or a complete iteration, their likely reaction would be, “Go for it!” One of the features of a high-performing agile team is that leadership can
be seamlessly switched without a power struggle. It makes sense for Miranda to lead a task that she’s familiar with and passionate about. The other responses are incorrect because: Members of a self-organizing team shouldn’t have to
ask permission or nudge someone out of the way in order to take the lead; a team member would not ask permission from the stakeholders, but would address the project team directly; leading a portion of a project isn’t a political game,
but is an example of leadership emergence from the project team.
