This is our time. Do you feel the call to lead? We want to create an uncommon tribe that not only adapts and assists, but leads the way.  Let us not be at the mercy of the changing times, but architects in our emergence from them. Our community needs to know the way.  Our clients need to know the way. When times are uncertain, be certainty. Stay tuned to this podcast, along with my twitter (@badass_agile) and instagram (@badassagile) for your invitation to be part of something special.

Badass Unscripted - Re-learning

Agile is, in many ways about the work NOT done.  That includes documentation that people are unlikely to read because it doesn't inform any particular job function, documenting features that never get shipped or used, and building too much documentation before starting to build and ship.  Often we produce it simply because we believe we're supposed to. ***JOIN THE FORGE*** Sign up for more info about our online leadership immersion experience. https://badassagile.com/the-forge/ ****** Don't forget to join us in the Badass Agile Listener Lounge on Facebook for member exclusives, livestreams and previews! https://www.facebook.com/groups/badasslistenerlounge/ We're also on YouTube!  Follow the podcast, enjoy some panel/guest commentary, and get some quick tips and guidance from me: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCf6I_bii9oUSI8fkN1BOk6g ****** Our mission is to create an elite tribe of leaders who focus on who they need to become in order to lead and inspire, and to be the best agile podcast and resource for effective mindset and leadership game.

Episode 166 - On Documentation

I'm an advocate for new voices; unique voices.  It's important to note that while standing still feels good - like we've finally made it, or figured out the big gnarly problem - it is exactly that moment of pause that begins the unravelling of our position at the white hot edge of change.   Make yourself heard, and do it frequently.  Speak even if you're not certain that people will listen or agree.  It is the act of continuously observing, framing, collecting and publishing your take that will keep agile moving forward. ***JOIN THE FORGE*** Sign up for more info about our online leadership immersion experience. https://badassagile.com/the-forge/ ****** Don't forget to join us in the Badass Agile Listener Lounge on Facebook for member exclusives, livestreams and previews! https://www.facebook.com/groups/badasslistenerlounge/ We're also on YouTube!  Follow the podcast, enjoy some panel/guest commentary, and get some quick tips and guidance from me: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCf6I_bii9oUSI8fkN1BOk6g ****** Our mission is to create an elite tribe of leaders who focus on who they need to become in order to lead and inspire, and to be the best agile podcast and resource for effective mindset and leadership game.

Badass Unscripted - The Turning Of A Year

When our discussion of Agile is limited to software development, we tend to think of only the software development part as being even partly creative.  But could creativity be a prerequisite to doing Agile well?

Episode 162 - Agile Means Freedom

Humility is a big part of leadership and the Badass Agile way (get humble, get flexible).   Particularly when you have accomplished something remarkable...the best thing you can do is keep it a little closer to your chest than normal....all of us have seen someone who blows their own trumpet a little too often...don't be that guy. ***JOIN THE FORGE*** Our online leadership immersion experience is taking names for a December 2020 Cohort.

Episode 161 - Living The Values

There's a fine line between calibrating, baselining, or adjusting and letting yourself off the hook. When you catch yourself giving yourself a pass, or permission to fall back into excuses, you have a opportunity to challenge your weak spots.  Don't let yourself off the hook too easy...its usually the stuff we don't want to face that creates the greatest opportunity for improvement. ***JOIN THE FORGE*** Our online leadership immersion experience is taking names for a December 2020 Cohort.

Episode 160 - Fireside Chat - Nobody Owns Agile

The point of being Agile is not being Agile.  Don't forget your fundamentals - the simplest way to define great performance is to find a customer need and fill it.  Figure out what they buy and why they buy it, and focus on delivering THAT better than anyone else in your space. ***JOIN THE FORGE*** Our online leadership immersion experience is taking names for a December 2020 Cohort.
