Bernie Maloney: The Triangulation Technique—Coaching Agile Teams Through Challenges Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Bernie identifies critical patterns that cause teams to self-destruct, with lack of clarity about intention being the most common culprit. When teams are treated as mere "task workers" without clear vision, strategy, or goals, they become depressed and directionless. Some teams seek forgiveness after failed experiments, while others get stuck seeking permission without taking enough self-leadership. Bernie emphasizes that waiting for direction is fundamentally self-destructive behavior, and Scrum Masters must create safety for teams to reach high performance. He introduces the coaching technique of triangulation, where problems become a third point that coach and coachee examine together, side by side, rather than facing each other in opposition. In this segment, we talk about “What the Duck”, a Lego Serious Play workshop. Featured Book of the Week: Start with Why by Simon Sinek Bernie champions "Start with Why" by Simon Sinek as essential reading for Scrum Masters working to transform team culture. He explains that compelling stories are how leaders truly influence others, following the sequence of Attention-Emotion-Reason. This book helps Scrum Masters understand that their job fundamentally involves changing culture, and leaders must demonstrate the change they want to see. Bernie connects this to the broader leadership challenge of developing coaching and mentoring skills within organizational structures. During this segment, we also refer to the following books:  Drive, By Dan Pink Change the Culture, Change the Game, by Connors et al. The Secret Language of Leadership, by Denning Too Many Bosses, Too Few Leaders, by Peshawaria The Geek Way, by McAfee Right Kind of Wrong, by Edmondson   Self-reflection Question: What patterns of self-destructive behavior might your teams be exhibiting, and how could you help them move from seeking permission to taking ownership? [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

The multitude of books written about business and leadership is nearly incalculable. If you began reading now and did nothing else you could spend the rest of your life reading business books and still have many unread at the end of your life. Yet the wealth of knowledge contained within these books still pales in comparison to the insights provided to us by THE book—the Bible. In this episode Greg and I are happy to announce we are working on a new project called Business By The Book, which combines biblical insights with real-world applications.

Many leaders believe publishing a book will instantly grow their influence—but it won't. Real influence comes from solving problems, serving others, and earning trust. Without a clear message, audience, and strategy, a book becomes just paper. True leadership always comes before authorship.

How many leadership books do you own—or have actually read? If your shelves look anything like mine, you probably have dozens. But here's the question: Are they helping, or just collecting dust? In today's episode, Dr. Tony Kern dives into why so many leadership books miss the mark. He'll challenge the assumptions behind popular leadership advice, explore what real-world leaders actually do differently, and ask if there's anything truly worth keeping from the leadership shelf.

Mike and Kristen dive deep into Michael Bungay Stanier's The Advice Trap, exploring why our natural instinct to give advice actually makes us worse leaders. This episode reveals the uncomfortable truth: your advice isn't as good as you think it is, and constantly offering solutions is damaging your team and overwhelming your schedule. The hosts get painfully honest about their own advice-giving habits while breaking down the three personas of the "advice monster" - Tell It, Save It, and Control It. They explore the psychological rewards we get from playing rescuer (#winsnotwins) and share practical strategies for staying curious longer instead of rushing to solutions. If you've ever wondered why your team keeps coming to you with problems instead of solutions, or why you feel like the only person holding everything together, this episode will help you understand the hidden costs of advice-giving and show you a better way forward.Highlights:Why advice damages organizations by demotivating receivers, overwhelming givers, and limiting team potentialThe three advice monster personas (Tell It, Save It, Control It) and their shared DNA belief: "I'm better than the other person"Understanding #winsnotwins - the short-term rewards that keep you stuck in advice-giving patterns and why recognizing these prizes is key to changeWhy taming your advice monster requires battling between present you and future you (the adult marshmallow test)The TERA framework for psychological safety using Tribe, Expectation, Rank, and Autonomy to create safer conversationsSix "foggy-fiers" that derail problem-solving, from "twirling" (first problem isn't the real problem) to "yarning" (too much storytelling)Moving beyond single questions to strategic coaching combos that uncover real challengesSpecific language patterns for interrupting conversations without damaging relationshipsHow your background affects when and how you should give away power as a leaderMaking coaching a regular interaction instead of formal compliance meetingsLinks & Resources Mentioned:The Advice Trap by Michael Bungay StanierThe Coaching Habit by Michael Bungay StanierDownload Additional Book Resources from MBS Love & Leadership Episode #9: The Coaching HabitWhat Got You Here Won't Get You There by Marshall GoldsmithThe First 90 Days by Michael D.

Kristen and Mike explore The Go-Giver Leader by Bob Burg and John David Mann, a parable that flips traditional command-and-control leadership on its head. Through the story of Ben, an ambitious M&A executive who discovers that true influence comes from yielding rather than forcing, listeners will learn why the best leaders don't take leadership - they give it away. Mike brings his signature tangents, while Kristen keeps things grounded with practical insights. If you've ever wondered why some leaders inspire fierce loyalty while others barely get compliance, this episode reveals the five keys that separate legendary leaders from mere managers. Fair warning: there's some serious cheese in this book, but the lessons underneath are pure gold.Highlights:Using "I," "me," and "my" repeatedly sends the wrong message - leadership isn't about making everything about youAnyone can create a vision, but the real challenge is holding fast to it when everyone else loses sight during difficult timesInfluence pulls people toward you like gravity, while convincing pushes and overcomes by argument - completely different approachesLike heating wood to reveal beautiful colors, applying belief (not pressure) brings out the best in peopleWhile competence is baseline, people need to trust your character - what happens when life scratches your soul matters more than your resumeGiving away power actually increases your influence, though this advice doesn't apply equally to all leaders in all situationsThe book uniquely addresses how tragedy and loss leave authentic marks that show up in business and leadershipThe best way to increase influence is to give it away - great leadership is never about the leaderLinks & Resources Mentioned:The Go-Giver Leader by Bob Burg and John David MannThe Go-Giver by Bob Burg and John David MannExtreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win by Jocko WillinkThe Advice Trap by Michael Bungay StanierWhat Got You Here Won't Get You There by Marshall GoldsmithGood to Great by Jim CollinsUnreasonable Hospitality by Will GuidaraPodcast Website: www.loveandleadershippod.comInstagram: @loveleaderpodFollow us on LinkedIn!Kristen: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristenbsharkey/ Mike: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-s-364970111/Learn more about Kristen's leadership coaching and facilitation services: http://www.emboldify.com

Let's talk about something most aspiring authors completely overlook: writing a book that actually sells and supports your business. In this episode, I walk you through what it really takes to turn your expertise and experiences into a profitable thought leadership book—not just a passion project. Because here's the truth: good writing alone isn't enough. I've seen people with average writing skills outsell brilliant authors simply because they understand marketing, positioning, and strategy. If your goal is to build a brand, book speaking gigs, launch coaching offers, or grow your business… then this episode is your blueprint. What You'll Learn in This Episode Start with the end in mind. Before you write a single word, ask: What do I want this book to do for me? For my readers? What doors do I want it to open? Blend strategy with storytelling. Your story alone isn't enough. It's how you strategically use your story to teach, lead, and guide. You need a clear framework. I walk you through why having a signature framework is essential—and how it becomes the foundation for your offers. Think beyond book sales. If you're only thinking about selling books, you're playing small. This episode will challenge you to map out a full monetization plan—from speaking to coaching to digital products. Pre-sell with purpose. Don't wait for launch day to talk about your book. I explain how to build buzz and demand before it even drops. Quotes “Nobody cares about your book as much as you do. They care about how it helps them.” “You're not writing a memoir. You're creating a movement.” “Your personal story should support the transformation—not take the spotlight.” “If you don't have a monetization plan, your book becomes a missed opportunity.” Secure your ticket for the 7 Figure Bestseller Summit: https://www.jasminewomack.com/summit Connect with Jasmine: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejasminewomack Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/authorjasminewomack YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thejasminewomack Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejasminewomack Website: https://www.jasminewomack.com Work with Me: Secure your ticket for the 7 Figure Bestseller Summit: https://www.jasminewomack.com/summit Grab a copy of my book - Published and Paid: Write, Self-Publish, and Launch Nonfiction Book in 90 Days or Less: https://www.jasminewomack.com/published-paid-book Apply to the Published and Paid®️ Mastermind: https://www.jasminewomack.com/mastermindapplication

Training ammo, particularly 9x19mm, is back and it is available and affordable. During our SOTG Homeroom from SOTGU, Professor Paul will discuss the ammo situation in the United States and address the lies people tell themselves.

How do you turn an idea into lasting thought leadership? Dr. Ruth Gotian has done just that—translating academic research on high achievers into actionable insights that help individuals and organizations thrive. In this episode, we explore the power of mentorship, the resilience of high achievers, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. Ruth shares stories of Olympic champions, astronauts, and Nobel laureates who refused to settle for mediocrity. Like Dr. Peggy Whitson, who applied to NASA for a decade before becoming the agency's chief astronaut. Or the Olympian already planning his next win on the flight home. Ruth knows success isn't a talent—it's a learned skill. She shares how to identify your superpowers, leverage them, and plant ambition like a seed that grows into unstoppable drive. She also reveals her own journey of thought leadership—from struggling with the first chapter of The Success Factor to writing books, speaking globally, and democratizing knowledge in every format possible. Her latest book, The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring: A Complete Guide to Effective Mentoring (The FT Guides), co-authored with Andy Lopata, was named Runner-Up for Leadership Book of the Year (The Leadership Awards 2024). Whether you're looking to elevate your own success or help others rise, Ruth's insights will change the way you think about achievement. Three Key Takeaways: • Success is a Learned Skill, Not Just Talent – High achievers aren't born extraordinary; they develop habits, resilience, and a relentless pursuit of growth. Whether it's Olympians, astronauts, or Nobel laureates, they all follow a process to success that anyone can adopt. • Mentorship is a Game-Changer – The right mentors can push you further than you ever imagined. Surround yourself with people who believe in you more than you believe in yourself, ask the tough questions, and challenge you to think bigger. (The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring explores this in depth.) • Persistence Separates the Good from the Great – Dr. Peggy Whitson applied to be an astronaut for 10 years before finally being accepted—then went on to become NASA's Chief Astronaut. The difference between those who succeed and those who don't? They refuse to give up. Want to know if you are a High Achiever?  Take this 2 minute assessment to find out.

Everyone has Red Dot Fever now. Are optics on handguns the end all be all? During our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc. we will consider the ins and outs of modern optics on handguns. Recently, Shooting New Weekly published an excerpt from an article written by Professor Paul regarding shooting games and whether or not playing games prepares us for the realities of life and death encounters. Also, during our SOTG Homeroom from Student of the Gun University, Paul will discuss the ongoing discussion about “point shooting” versus “aimed fire”. Can you teach yourself to point shoot? Sure. Does that apply to 95 percent of the deadly force scenarios you may encounter?

In today's conversation Judith Germain speaks to Neil Jurd OBE who contrasts overly complicated leadership frameworks and emphasises the importance of simplicity. Judith notes the value of leaders being able to create space for their teams to contribute. Key Takeaways Neil emphasises simplifying leadership into two key concepts: connection (building relationships) and direction (clear, compelling purpose) Both agree leaders must genuinely care about followers and enable everyone to contribute, not just dominate Over-controlling and micromanaging are common leadership mistakes; allowing space for others to think/decide is crucial In this conversation, they discuss common leadership mistakes, with Neil highlighting the tendency for leaders to get overly involved and micromanage, rather than empowering their teams. The antidote is for leaders to step back, allow others to think and decide, and focus on inspiring and aligning the team around the shared purpose.  Neil Jurd OBE is the author of the Leadership Book and founder of leadership training organisation and online leadership streaming platform Leader Connect.
