Prof. Dr. Hermann Simon gehört zu den bekanntesten deutschen Wirtschaftsexperten. Er hat Hidden Champions erforscht, eine weltweit führende Beratung aufgebaut und Bücher geschrieben, die heute als Standardwerke gelten. Nun ist sein neues Buch erschienen: „Simon sagt. Was im Management wirklich zählt“.Wir haben die Ehre, als eines der ersten Medien darüber mit ihm zu sprechen.Darin hat Hermann Simon die wichtigsten Gedanken und Einsichten aus fünf Jahrzehnten gesammelt, zu Führung, Wettbewerb, Strategie, Marketing und aus seiner Arbeit mit Unternehmen in aller Welt. Er erzählt, warum Ehrlichkeit und Schnelligkeit für ihn unverzichtbar sind, warum gute Ideen sofort notiert werden müssen und was er aus Begegnungen mit Firmen wie Nokia und Huawei gelernt hat.Außerdem spricht er über die Geschwindigkeit chinesischer Unternehmen, das fehlende Gespür vieler deutscher Manager für große Zahlen und die Frage, weshalb chinesische Städte im wissenschaftlichen Output längst deutsche Metropolen überholt haben.Besonders hängen geblieben ist sein Satz: „Wollen kann man nicht lernen.“ Warum dieser Gedanke für Unternehmer und Manager so wichtig ist, besprechen wir in dieser Folge.Prof. Dr. Hermann Simon auf LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simonhermann/Jetzt bestellen: „Simon sagt.

The Uplift app is here! Try it free for 30 days Today, we're diving into part one of a conversation that's going to light your brain on fire—in the best way. I'm joined by Anne-Laure Le Cunff, a brilliant neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and one of the most refreshingly original thinkers I've come across when it comes to learning, growth, and creativity. If you've ever felt stuck in your own head, wished you could reignite your curiosity, or just wanted to fall in love with learning again—this episode is your invitation. Anne-Laure's journey is nothing short of inspiring. She walked away from a high-powered role at Google to study neuroscience, and now she's researching how our brains learn at King's College London. She is also the founder of Nest Labs, where she helps people think with more clarity and live with more intention. Her work is this beautiful blend of science-backed insight, creative thinking, and practical tools that challenge the way we've been taught to think. Her concept of “Tiny Experiments” completely changed the way I approach curiosity—and I knew I had to share it with you. You're going to walk away from this episode rethinking what's possible. Let's get into it.

Change - Change the Input, Change the Outcome - Bishop Kevin Foreman
The eight core OPEC+ members have agreed to a modest increase in oil output for October, surprising markets after recent cuts. As production dynamics shift, the implications for global supply and pricing are significant.

Sprintziele gehören zu den stärksten Werkzeugen im Scrum-Framework. Dominique und Oliver sprechen in dieser Folge darüber, wie es Teams gelingt, Sprintziele so zu etablieren, dass sie Orientierung geben, Wirkung entfalten und Vertrauen schaffen. Ein Sprintziel ist schließlich mehr als eine Pflichtübung im Sprint Planning. Richtig eingesetzt, schafft es Klarheit über das „Warum“ der nächsten Iteration und verbindet die tägliche Arbeit mit der Produktvision. Vielen Teams fällt die Nutzung von Sprintzielen jedoch schwer. Häufig gibt es gar kein Ziel oder es bleibt auf der Ebene von Aufgabenlisten stecken. Statt echter Wirkung wird dann nur Output gemessen. Die Folge: wenig Fokus, kaum Begeisterung bei Stakeholdern und sinkendes Vertrauen in den Wert von Sprintzielen. Doch gerade hier liegt der Hebel. Ein gut formuliertes Sprintziel richtet die Arbeit am Outcome aus. Es beantwortet die Frage, welchen Mehrwert das Team in den kommenden zwei Wochen schaffen will und gibt damit eine klare Orientierung für Entscheidungen im Sprint. Statt einer Sammlung von Backlog-Items entsteht ein gemeinsamer Fokus. Im Daily oder im Review lässt sich damit jederzeit prüfen, ob die Arbeit noch auf das eigentliche Ziel einzahlt. Dominique und Oliver machen aber auch deutlich, dass Sprintziele eben nicht im stillen Kämmerlein entstehen sollten. Entscheidend ist die gemeinsame Gestaltung mit den Developern. Wer das Ziel aktiv mitformuliert, wird es auch eher als eigenes Commitment ansehen. So entsteht nicht nur mehr Akzeptanz, sondern auch die Bereitschaft, externe Einflüsse auszuhalten und das Ziel zu verteidigen. Product Owner:innen bringen dabei den strategischen Rahmen ein – etwa Vision, Roadmap oder Product Goal – und öffnen einen Raum, in dem das Team das nächste sinnvolle Ziel bestimmen kann. Ein gutes Sprintziel ist aber auch sichtbar und sie sind im Alltag präsent: in Dailys, in Gesprächen mit Stakeholdern und sogar in der spontanen Antwort auf die Frage „Woran arbeitet ihr gerade?“. Nur so werden sie zu einem lebendigen Orientierungspunkt statt zu einem Protokolleintrag. Wenn ein Team das gemeinsam vereinbarte Sprintziel erreicht, gilt es, diesen Erfolg sichtbar zu feiern; nicht die Anzahl der erledigten Backlog-Items, sondern den erzielten Mehrwert. Gerade im Sprint Review eröffnet das die Chance, Stakeholder zu begeistern und ihnen zu zeigen, warum sich die investierte Arbeit gelohnt hat. So wird das Konzept Sprintziele gestärkt und gewinnt wieder Vertrauen. Zusammengefasst helfen Sprintziele Teams dabei, sich auf das Wesentliche zu konzentrieren, Entscheidungen leichter zu treffen und Stakeholder einzubeziehen. Wer sie konsequent auf Outcome ausrichtet, gemeinsam gestaltet und sichtbar macht, etabliert ein Instrument, das weit mehr ist als eine Formalität. Es ist ein Kompass, der Produktteams eine gemeinsame, wetvolle Richtung gibt.
Hive Digital Technologies Chief Financial Officer Darcy Daubaras joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's 22% month-over-month increase in Bitcoin production for August 2025, underscoring both the company's operational strength and its accelerating expansion in Paraguay. Daubaras reported that HIVE mined a total of 247 Bitcoin in August, averaging more than 8 BTC per day. With the successful completion of Phase 2 of the Yguazú Project, HIVE also exceeded 18 exahash per second (EH/s) of global mining capacity. The company is now consistently producing over 8.5 BTC daily, all powered by renewable hydroelectric energy from the Itaipú Dam, one of the world's largest hydro facilities. HIVE is also advancing construction at its 100 MW Phase 3 Valenzuela site, which Daubaras confirmed is now substantially complete. The deployment of mining infrastructure is already underway, with the first six Bitmain S21+ Hydro containers (≈350 PH/s) online. As a result, HIVE's global fleet efficiency has increased to approximately 18.5 EH/s. This achievement marks the company's third 100 MW green energy buildout in Paraguay, further solidifying HIVE's leadership in environmentally sustainable Bitcoin mining. All ASIC purchases for Phase 3 are fully funded, and additional units are expected to be delivered and installed over the coming weeks. Once Phase 3 is fully operational, HIVE anticipates producing approximately 12 BTC per day, based on current network difficulty. At that scale, the company expects to represent roughly 2.5–3% of the global Bitcoin mining network, while maintaining fleet-wide energy efficiency at around 17.5 joules per terahash (J/TH). Daubaras emphasized that HIVE's strategic growth in Paraguay not only supports its target of 25 EH/s by U.S. Thanksgiving 2025, but also demonstrates how the company is scaling its operations responsibly with renewable energy, providing both shareholders and the Bitcoin network with sustainable value creation. #proactiveinvestors #hivedigitaltechnologieslet #tsxv #hive #nasdaq #hive #CryptoMining #GreenEnergy #BitcoinMining #ParaguayMining #DataCenter #Exahash #S21Miners #DigitalAssets #ProactiveInvestors
Dirk Kreuters Vertriebsoffensive: Verkauf | Marketing | Vertrieb | Führung | Motivation
Alle reden über „mehr Fokus“. Falsch. Fokus ist eine Folge – nicht die Ursache. In dieser Episode zerlegen wir die gängigen Ratschläge radikal logisch und drehen die Kausalität um: Du hast keine Fokus-Probleme, du hast Ziel- und Margenprobleme. Aus einer LinkedIn-Umfrage: 56 % geben „zu wenig Fokus“ an, 29 % „zu operativ“, nur 2 % „bessere Mitarbeiter“. Wir zeigen, warum genau diese Reihenfolge dich festhält – und wie du sie umdrehst. Du bekommst ein Anti-Plan-Playbook: Kill-Liste statt To-dos: 80 % Aktivitäten sofort beenden. Offer-Upgrade: Marge & ARPU vor Recruiting – erst Cash, dann Leverage. Fractional A-Player: gezielte Spikes einkaufen, nicht „Hände“. Fokus als Design: Commitment Devices, 2-Stunden „Total Lock“. Scoreboards & Ownership: Rollen so schneiden, dass Top-Talente kommen wollen. Ergebnis: Du beendest Busywork, kaufst dir echte Kapazität, ziehst A-Player an und erzeugst Momentum, das Fokus automatisch triggert. Keine Floskeln, keine „Hacks“ – nur Hebel, die zählen. Hör rein, wenn du in 30 Tagen mehr Deckungsbeitrag, weniger Firefighting und klare Fortschritte willst. (Und ja: Am Ende gibt's den ehrlichen Call-to-Action – nicht für mehr Aufgaben, sondern für weniger Optionen mit mehr Output.)

Matthias gibt einen kompakten Einblick in die wichtigsten Updates, von neuen Arbeitsmodi über verbesserte Analysefunktionen bis zu den vier Persönlichkeiten des Modells. Fünf Fragen, die in der Folge beantwortet werden: - Wie funktioniert der neue Thinking‑Modus und welche Unterschiede gibt es zwischen Standard- und Pro-Version? - Welche Auswirkungen hat die Prompt-Qualität auf den Output von GPT‑5? - Wie können Bilder, Screenshots oder Charts für Analysen genutzt werden? - Wie hilft GPT‑5 beim Codieren, Planen oder für Entscheidungsgrundlagen? - Welche Unterschiede machen die vier Persönlichkeiten Zyniker, Roboter, Zuhörer und Nerd im Output aus? Das sagt Matthias: „Wer vage fragt, bekommt mittelmäßige Ergebnisse – wer klar brieft, bekommt ein Modell, das mitdenkt.“ Mit: Matthias Wienemann, KI-Experte bei webnetz

Tim spricht in dieser Folge mit Marc Roulet von sevdesk darüber, warum bessere Metriken & KPIs den Unterschied machen, wenn es um gute Produktentscheidungen geht. Beide erleben in ihrer Arbeit immer wieder, dass Organisationen Zahlen erheben, die zwar schnell verfügbar sind, aber wenig darüber aussagen, ob ein Produkt wirklich Nutzen stiftet. Marc Roulet ist ein erfahrener Experte im Bereich Analytics und Metriken und bei sevdesk verantwortlich für Data und Analytics. Er hat in ähnlichen Rollen u.a. auch schon bei ebay, mobile.de und XING Erfahrung gesammelt. Somit ist er ein sehr passender Gesprächspartner für dieses Thema Viele Teams orientieren sich an einfachen Kennzahlen wie Story Points oder Anzahl ausgelieferter Features. Das zeigt den "Fleiß" - i.S. von Output, sagt aber kaum etwas über Wirkung. Bessere Metriken schauen auf Outcomes und helfen zu erkennen, ob Kundinnen und Kunden tatsächlich profitieren. Wer das ernst nimmt, stellt fest, dass nicht jede neue Funktion Wert für die Nutzer schafft – und dass auch das Weglassen eine wichtige Entscheidung sein kann. Metriken sind kein starres System, das man einmal definiert und dann abarbeitet. Sie entfalten ihren Wert erst, wenn Teams regelmäßig hinschauen, sie diskutieren und ggf. anpassen - also aktiv mit ihnen arbeiten. So entsteht ein gemeinsames Verständnis, worauf es wirklich ankommt. Oft geht es darum, Hypothesen zu prüfen: Führt eine bestimmte Änderung tatsächlich zu mehr Nutzung? Verbessert sie ein relevantes Kundenerlebnis? Oder verpufft der Effekt? Gerade für Product Owner liegt hier eine Chance. Sie sind nah an den Entscheidungen und können dafür sorgen, dass Gespräche über bessere Metriken nicht an der Oberfläche bleiben. Es geht nicht darum, Zahlen zu liefern, die gut aussehen, sondern um eine Grundlage, die schwierige Fragen und Entscheidungen ermöglicht. Was bedeutet Erfolg für unser Produkt? Wie messen wir Fortschritt, der über Auslastung und Geschwindigkeit hinausgeht und in Richtung unserer Produktvision führt? Wer sich auf diesen Weg einlässt, wird merken, dass bessere Metriken Orientierung geben. Sie bringen Klarheit in Diskussionen mit Stakeholdern, machen Annahmen transparent und helfen Teams, bewusster zu entscheiden. So wird Produktentwicklung weniger zu einer Abfolge von Aktivitäten und mehr zu einem Prozess von Wertgenerierung, der echten Unterschied macht. Das Video von Marcs Talk auf der Product at Heart können wir zu diesem Thema nur empfehlen. Hier der Link zu seinem Talk im Video-Archiv der diesjährigen Product at Heart.

They want robots.” “If you're going to embrace AI in the school system, you have to allow and enforce critical thinking.” “Lead by example. That's always been a core belief of mine, that I'm not just going to bark orders at you. Anything that I tell you to do is based on something that I've previously done or have experience with first.” “Don't be a content creator.

Check out my newsletter at https://TKOPOD.com and join my new community at https://TKOwners.com━I walk you through exactly how I validate an online business idea before I ever launch it, using real data from places that actually matter. I use GummySearch, Reddit, and review sites like Captera, G2, GetApp, and TrustRadius to pull the true pain points and must haves for QuickBooks and Xero, then I run the same prompt across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Manus to cluster the findings. The big three complaints are unreliable bank feeds, constant pricing increases, and poor customer support, while the must haves are clean invoicing, simple reconciliation, and easy cloud access with multi user collaboration.

I want you to investigate public review sites (Capterra, G2, GetApp, TrustRadius, and similar) and extract real user pain points and “can't-live-without” features for QuickBooks (Online + Desktop) and Xero.Steps:1. Scrape reviews across multiple platforms (Capterra, G2, GetApp, TrustRadius, Reddit, app store reviews if available).2. Collect at least 200+ recent reviews (past 2 years).3. Parse and cluster feedback into two categories: - *Pain points* (things users hate, churn reasons, frustrations, broken features, cost complaints). - *Must-haves* (the specific features or outcomes users rave about and would never give up).4. For each cluster, include: - Direct sample quotes from real users (keep them short). - Frequency (# of times it appeared across reviews). - Sentiment strength (light annoyance → dealbreaker).5. Summarize into a ranked list: - Top 10 pain points across both platforms. - Top 10 must-have features across both platforms.6. Call out any hidden gems — recurring insights from smaller groups that big competitors might be missing (ex: bank-feed stability, reconciliations, multi-currency, customer support).7. Deliver a final “opportunity map” — 3–5 areas where a slimmed-down competitor could wedge in, based on high-frustration/low-satisfaction pain points paired with still-high demand for core features.Output format:- Clear tables (Pain Points, Must-Haves).- Ranked lists with numbers.- A concise final summary with the best 3–5 wedge opportunities.Make sure all insights are backed with real review data, not generic summaries.At the end of your report give me your unfiltered unbiased take on whether or not I should start this business. Be brutally honest for me, and assume I have a 10x developer on my team, because I do.
The USDA said beef output will fall more than previously expected in 2025 and 2026 amid reduced slaughter and lower dressed weights. Production this year is now forecast at 25.926 billion pounds.

Beyond CRM Sales Tools: Diese Tools boosten deinen Vertrieb – mit Michael Larche (Dealfront) Zunächst die Frage: Wie wächst du jenseits des CRM? In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Michael Larche, VP Sales bei Dealfront. Wir zeigen, wie Beyond CRM Sales Tools dir mehr Pipeline, bessere Lead-Qualität und klare Priorisierung liefern. Dadurch gewinnst du Fokus – und zwar genau dort, wo Deals entstehen. Dealfront bündelt Firmendaten, Kontakte und Intent-Signale in einer Plattform. Außerdem identifiziert die Lösung anonyme Website-Besucher, sodass du Timing und Relevanz triffst. Da ein Großteil der Buyer Journey ohne Formular passiert, brauchst du Signale, die früh ansetzen. Folglich erreichst du die richtige Person zur richtigen Zeit. Im Stack steht Salesforce als CRM im Zentrum; zugleich verbinden wir Slack für Abstimmung und Outreach für Sequences. Wichtig ist hierbei die bidirektionale Synchronisierung, denn nur so bleiben Daten konsistent. Anschließend laufen Inbound-, Outbound- und Nurturing-Playbooks messbar über KPIs. Dadurch siehst du nicht nur Aktivität, sondern echten Fortschritt. Bei der Gesprächsintelligenz setzen wir bewusst auf ein schlankes Setup. Ein Recorder/Analyzer transkribiert Calls, mappt Erkenntnisse auf MEDDIC/MEDPIC und füllt Felder automatisch. Dadurch sparen Reps Zeit; gleichzeitig erhalten Leads wöchentliche Zusammenfassungen in Slack. Somit wird Coaching konkreter, Forecasting präziser und die Pipeline stabiler. Für Enterprise-Deals nutzen wir digitale Dealrooms, zum Beispiel über GetAccept. Dort liegen Security-Dokus, Tasks und Zusammenfassungen gebündelt. Dadurch behalten alle Stakeholder den Überblick; gleichzeitig werden Next Steps transparent. Angebote erstellen wir in Minuten mit PandaDoc – direkt aus Salesforce. Anschließend zeigt das Tracking, wer welche Passagen liest; deshalb werden Follow-ups punktgenau. Go-to-Market fährt zweigleisig: Einerseits product-led über Test-Accounts, andererseits sales-led über Discovery und Demo. Entscheidend ist „Speed-to-Lead“: Zuerst eine personalisierte Antwort, dann Call, LinkedIn-Connect und Terminvorschlag – alles über eine Cadence. Dadurch kombinierst du Effizienz und Relevanz; gleichzeitig vermeidest du generische Massenmails. Neben Tools brauchst du jedoch Prozesse. Jede Einführung bedeutet Change; deshalb sind Buy-in, Training und klare Verantwortlichkeiten Pflicht. Nicht nur Features zählen, sondern vor allem Business Impact. Wer Daten konsequent nutzt und Disziplin zeigt, skaliert Output mit demselben Team. Schließlich ist genau das der Kern von Beyond CRM Sales Tools: Technik plus Umsetzung. Mein Fazit: Starte mit klaren ICPs, definierten Sequences und sauberem Reporting. Ergänze anschließend Conversational Intelligence und Dealrooms. Dadurch entsteht ein System, das Leads priorisiert, Aktivitäten steuert und Ergebnisse sichtbar macht – Tag für Tag.

Today's guest is Tim Riley. Tim Riley is the Director of Sports Performance at Kollective in Austin, where he leads one of the nation's top NFL off‑season training programs and works with elite athletes across the NFL, NBA, PLL, and AVP. He also serves as a Lead Performance Coach with C4 Energy and Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the University of Texas Men's Lacrosse team. Beyond the weight room, Tim shares his knowledge through his podcast, Coach Em Up, and his social media platforms. On today's podcast, Tim speaks on how he synthesizes the complexities and possibilities of training into his intuitive process. On the show, we cover numerous items of speed and strength training, digging into the daily training process. We also cover the help and use of strength machines, conditioning, capacity, training stimulation, and much more. Today's episode is brought to you by Hammer Strength.

When things are simple and grounded, athletes feel safe to go all-in. What to try: Open sessions with minimal barriers, simple tasks that athletes can immediately attack. Anchor your program in clear, foundational principles. Avoid over-layering. Use simplicity to build confidence before introducing complexity. Is Complexity Distracting Us from What Actually Matters? – [6:08] Tim reflects on times when adding more didn't add value. Too much complexity can distract from what makes athletes feel fast, powerful, or confident. What to try: If a drill looks cool but the athletes are confused, simplify. Choose training elements that resonate emotionally and physically with athletes. Prioritize what sticks with them, not what looks best on social media. What Are Athletes Actually Feeling During a Drill? – [11:55] Tim discusses the disconnect between what coaches see and what athletes actually experience. You won't know unless you ask. What to try: Regularly pause to ask: “What did that feel like?” Adjust based on athlete feedback, even if it means letting go of your favorite drill. Use sensation-based questions to help athletes build awareness (“Did you feel the bounce off the floor?”). How Do We Make Coaching Feel Less Robotic? – [18:42] Athletes shut down when things feel overly mechanical. Tim points out that meaningful training often happens in the gray areas, not the rigidly planned ones. What to try: Let warmups flow with energy, don't always stick to a static script. Mix structure with spontaneity. Athletes should feel like they're moving, not executing code. Lean into athlete body language. Adjust volume and tone on the fly. What If the Goal Isn't Perfection, But Exploration? – [25:30] Tim encourages a shift from perfect execution to active exploration. Growth comes from seeing what might work, not just repeating what's safe. What to try: Create “choose your own path” movement options in skill work. Use sessions that feel like problem-solving, not rehearsing. Acknowledge when athletes take a risk, even if the result isn't clean. Can We Trust Athletes to Self-Organize? – [32:09]

Ankit Nagori and Mukesh Bansal may have started the fitness unicorn Cult.Fit together, but their journeys since then are a study in contrasts.On one hand is Cult.Fit. It's been a little over a year since Mukesh Bansal stepped down as Cult's CEO. When The Ken reached out to him asking why, he clarified that he still remains involved. But involvement, of course, is a spectrum – sometimes it means steering the company to an IPO. The catch is that while Cult.fit wants to go public next year, there is no DRHP yet. There is also no FY25 data on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs website. Then you have Nagori's big bet – Cure.Foods. Under Nagori's leadership, Curefoods went from 2 crore in revenue in FY21 to 775 crore in FY25. That's according to its draft IPO documents filed in June. Yup, Curefoods is also looking to go public. But unlike Cult, Nagori has a DRHP, a valuation, and a business that sells things people eat. While Eat.fit was all about quinoa and millets, Curefoods evetnually became about what sells. After all, the focus was to scale. Tune in. Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

“Trust Is An Output, Not An Input” Join me and my guest David Lapin, founder of Lapin International(lapininternational.com). David is a recognized global thought leader in leadership, culture, and business transformation, and the author of Lead by Greatness. Raised in apartheid-era South Africa, David helped draft one of the world's first corporate ethics codes in collaboration with Nelson Mandela's government - an experience that continues to shape his values-based approach to leadership today. In this conversation, David and I explore the profound connection between business, relationships, and the essence of service. SHOW NOTES SPONSORED BY: Power of You! Summary In this engaging conversation, Blaine and David Lapin explore the concept of the 'soul of business,' delving into the importance of ethics, leadership, and the cultivation of corporate identity. They discuss the evolution of business ethics, the role of leadership in aligning purpose and culture, and the innovative digital tools that can enhance leadership development. The dialogue emphasizes the interconnectedness of business and relationships, framing business as a platform for character development and ethical growth. In this conversation, David Lapin and Blaine explore the profound connection between business, relationships, and the essence of service. They discuss the importance of focusing on others' prosperity in business, the interplay between body and soul in leadership, and the concept of the leadership fingerprint as a tool for self-discovery. The dialogue emphasizes authenticity, trust, and self-awareness as critical components of effective leadership, highlighting how vulnerability and generosity can foster deeper connections and inspire change. Takeaways The essence of a company is its corporate soul. Business ethics were once seen as an oxymoron. The importance of ethics in business has evolved over time. The soul of a business needs to be cultivated and uncovered. Leadership is about aligning identity, purpose, and culture. Business serves as a gym for developing character and soul. The digital fingerprint tool enhances leadership development. Compassionate capitalism focuses on thriving rather than just profit. Connection is fundamental to understanding business ethics. The leader's ego can impact the soul of the business. Business and relationships develop the muscle of service. Leaders should focus on the prosperity of others. Service is inherent to our existence; we choose who to serve. Profits are a measure of how well we provide valuable service. The connection between body and soul is vital for leaders. Heroic actions involve putting others before oneself. The leadership fingerprint maps individual values and moral philosophy. Authenticity in leadership is about being your best self. Trust is built through humility, vulnerability, and generosity. Self-awareness is crucial for understanding how we impact others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Today's guest is Michael Zweifel. Michael is the Defensive Coordinator and Defensive Backs Coach at UW–La Crosse, now in his fourth season with the program. He previously founded Building Better Athletes (BBA Performance) in Dubuque, Iowa, training athletes from youth to pro levels. Michael also coached at Clarke College and the University of Dubuque. A former record-setting wide receiver, he won the 2011 Gagliardi Trophy and still holds the NCAA all-divisions career receptions record (463). In athletic development, the “5 S's of performance”: Strength, Speed, Stamina, Suppleness, and Skill are often brought up. What tends to be the case is that those 5 elements are weighted in that order, with skill mentioned, but rarely or ever studied in how to improve it. On today's show, Michael discusses his own creative approach to skill development in American football players with an emphasis on building artistry and adaptability in his players. He speaks on the nature of constraint-based coaching that helps athletes improve their arsenal of movements on the field, as well as their decision-making skills amid chaos. We also touch on the crossover between basketball and football, and ultimately, the art of long-term development of skill in one's sport and as an athlete in general.

College athletes can handle more volume and complexity, but the fundamentals still matter. What to try: Prioritize clean movement and buy-in over complexity in high school settings. Introduce more autonomy and load management with college athletes. Don't assume physical maturity—meet athletes where they are. Balancing Strength and Movement Skill in Team Settings – [5:03] It's not just about chasing strength numbers. There's value in seeing how strength integrates into movement, especially in large team environments. What to try: Cycle in movement tasks—like crawling, balancing, or landing—in warmups and finishers. Use strength work to support athletic expression, not just output. Keep the athlete's sport in mind—strength is a tool, not the goal. Developing the Skill of Lifting in Young Athletes – [11:09] Lifting isn't just strength—it's a skill. For youth athletes, you're teaching how to move with awareness under load. What to try: Start with basic isometrics and bodyweight patterns to teach control. Add load only when position and rhythm are reliable. Use slow eccentrics and pauses to reinforce stability. Rethinking Readiness: Performance vs. Output – [15:34] Readiness isn't just about lifting heavier or running faster—it's about how an athlete moves and feels. Output is one piece, not the whole picture. What to try: Include subjective readiness check-ins before training. Look for signs of fluidity, control,

Start Your Transformation Now In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim explores what it really means to experience freedom and independence—not just in the external world, but within ourselves. Building on his previous discussion about “seniority,” he reveals how true liberation comes from recognizing your spiritual authority, not from wealth, status, or nationality. If you've been seeking more ease in your finances, health, or life path, Jim makes a compelling case that reclaiming your seniority is the missing key. Diving deeper, Jim challenges cultural narratives around patriotism, belief systems, and identity that often mask as freedom but actually limit us. He unpacks how our upbringing and societal conditioning cause us to give away our power, and why managing your energy and attention is crucial for regaining it. With personal stories—including a raw account of his 39-month house build—and wisdom from his mentor Don Javier, this episode offers both spiritual insight and practical reflection on how to reclaim the independence we all crave. This episode is your wake-up call to stop seeking freedom externally and start remembering who you already are: a powerful soul with built-in seniority. If you're ready to step into true sovereignty, this is a must-listen. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Why We're All Born With Seniority (02:49) You don't have to earn freedom—you came into this life with cosmic power already built in. How Socialization and Domestication Strip Our Power (05:46) From childhood conditioning to national identity, we unknowingly give away our spiritual authority. Your Life is the Output of How You Manage Your Energy (09:11) Jim compares your life to a factory—what you create reflects how well you manage your seniority. A Personal Lesson: When Chaos Hijacked Jim's Power (11:59) Jim shares how his house-building process derailed his energy—and what brought him back on track. Freedom Begins With Attention, Not Action (15:13) Managing your attention in the 3D world is the gateway to reclaiming inner power. How Belief Systems and Patriotism Replace Seniority (21:04) Jim explains how societal labels and even religion can brand us, masking our true spiritual freedom. A Spiritual Person Asks Nothing of No One (26:53) What Don Javier taught Jim about sovereignty, asking Source—not society—for support. The Hidden Cost of Attachment (29:00) Freedom also means releasing the ego's grip—because what you cling to, controls you. Discovering Your True Power as Soul (32:00) Jim closes with a powerful invitation: Know yourself as soul, and you'll know true freedom. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway Your true independence isn't found in your passport, your bank account, or your job title. It's in your seniority—your deep knowing that you are soul, Source, and creator. When you stop letting beliefs, fears, and attachments define you, you'll remember the truth: you are free because you are. Let go of the need to control, release the illusions of security, and return to the inner sovereignty that was never lost—only forgotten. Freedom isn't out there. It's already within you.
