  1. You ran an "agile kickoff workshop." The client nodded along. Three months later: "So when will everything be done?"

    That's not a client problem. That's yours. One workshop doesn't create understanding. Continuous alignment does. Stop blaming the customer for not "getting agile."

  6. ...of us -- at least -- is earning enough for us to do life. It's never been a competition.

    I don't know what the glitch is with the men described in that article --

    ESPECIALLY GEN Z MEN, WTACTUALF ARE 31% OF YOU DOING WITH YOUR BRAINS?!? --

    but damn I feel bad for anyone navigating the dating scene these days. I simply could not with these ignorant, emotionally stunted misogynists.

  9. Stop burying decisions in email threads.

    Move the conversation to a threaded discussion instead! Slack, Teams, whatever you use: where context stays attached, replies are organized, and nobody has to scroll through a reply-all chain to find the answer.

  10. Your annual performance review is useless. Your manager barely knows what you did last month — let alone last year.

    Try this instead: let people choose 3 peers to give them feedback every 6 months. No report to management. No grades. Just honest growth conversations in a safe space.

  11. The biggest mistake leaders make in 1:1s? Talking.

    A one-on-one is not your meeting. It's theirs. Your job is to shut up and listen. No status updates. No "feedback." Just one question: "What are we not talking about that we should be?"

    Then wait. Even if it gets uncomfortable.

  12. PAUL DROTOS’ GUIDE FOR YOUR IMPROV JOURNEY

    Your Improv Journey is Paul Drotos’ treatise meant for beginners, veterans and randos. It is an easy read and is relevant even when considering teamwork, community and art in general.   

    Improv is an art form where actors create scenes on the spot. In a show, troupes will usually have games they play with varying levels of audience input.   

    When the scene ends, that is the end of […]

  13. The most underrated leadership skill isn't strategy, vision, or decisiveness.

    It's shutting up and listening.

    In your next 1:1, try this: say less, ask "What else?" and wait. The real information comes after the first pause, not before it.

  14. Bonuses don't motivate people. They destroy motivation.

    What actually drives your team: autonomy over their work, mastery in their craft, connection to each other, and purpose in what they build.

    Every time you dangle a carrot or threaten a stick, you're replacing intrinsic drive with dependency. Stop it.

  15. In tech, we know how to scale systems. But scaling humans? Well … that’s another story.

    Even with the right tools and processes, technical teams often struggle to scale behaviorally & culturally.

    In this #InfoQ video, Charlotte de Jong Schouwenburg explores why behavioral and cultural scaling is harder than technical scaling - and what leaders and teams can do about it.

  20. I have been helping some artist friends stopping by the studio make new work. They come for a day or two with loose ideas and we work on them turning them into neon ideas.

    These ones are from my friend Kels Mayo who has a new studio with three highly visible windows in Utica, NY. They wanted them to be Yes, Maybe, No windows and be made entirely of scraps to their handwriting. I suggested the blue "blockout glass" tubing to go where the connections are so you can still see them and read the words.
    I am excited to see them get installed soon.

    I think of myself like a music recording studio. My studio time is expensive yes... But when I look at all we make, it seems to be a good value. It's really fun- I can make anything- so when Artists come with a bunch of ideas to make and a tight deadline, I enjoy making their ideas.

  26. Why do good employees leave – even when everything seems fine? 🧠
    // Filippa Ahlcrona – Head of Q by Consid International, Strategic Lead for Equality

    Many companies invest time and money in recruiting – only to lose people again in everyday working life. Often it's not about salary or benefits, but something more fundamental: how well people actually work together. As Strategic Lead for Equality at Q by Consid, she works with companies across 40+ European locations – with one clear goal: better collaboration, higher performance and a culture that retains talent. 💡

    Her conviction: the talent shortage isn't just a recruiting problem – it's a leadership and culture problem.

  28. "Every successful pivot requires a silent partner" - Futurist Jim Carroll

    --
    Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series, The Art of the Infinite Pivot, based on 36 lessons from his 36 years as a solo entrepreneur, working as a nomadic worker in the global freelance economy. The series is unfolding here, and at pivot.jimcarroll.com.
    --

    For 36 years, I’ve been the one on the stage, the one with the "Futurist" title, and the one writing the books.

    But none of it would have been possible without my wife Christa. When I walked out of my job in 1990, we were in it together. I was tired of the corporate world and wanted to chase the future - she had a stable and lucrative executive position in a global multinational and could help to finance the risk. We decided - together - that I could take the plunge - into the world of technology consulting.

    Then, as I pivoted to the Internet in '94 and then to the "Futurist" role in 2002, she wasn't just supporting the move. She was the rock of stability that allowed the move to happen, all while raising our two young children. But she wasn't just the mom - she was the master organizer of complicated logistics, contracting, and so much more. Oh, and at the same time, she was the rock-solid editor of the (soon to be) 44 books that I have written or co-written throughout my career.

    I've written about her role before, and in one post, referred to her as the 'Fifth Beatle' - the George Martin of the operation, the Bernie Taupin partner, the one whose role is often unseen but absolutely critical to the overall success.
    Every creative person needs their fifth Beatle, George Martin, their Bernie Taupin.

    Christa is mine.

    In the world of the Infinite Pivot, everyone talks about the effort involved in changing. They focus on the speed, the risk, and the vision of the person at the helm. The key person, so to speak.

    But they forget that if you try to pivot without a solid foundation, you don’t manage to succeed. Often, you just spin out of control. Christa has been my business partner, my office manager, and my reality check for nearly four decades. She provided the structural and emotional "anchor" that gave me the freedom to be bold, all while raising our sons.

    You need a rock.

    The boldest moves aren't made by those who have nothing to lose; they are made by those who have a solid place to stand. Before you make your next turn, make sure you know who, or what, is holding the ground for you.

    In my case, it's Christa.
