Salum Abdul-Rahman: From Isolation to Integration—Rebuilding Agile Team Connection For Remote Teams 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. Salum describes working with a grocery ecommerce team during COVID that fell into the trap of prioritizing individual convenience over team collaboration. Remote work led team members to design their work around personal preferences, with the lead developer becoming increasingly isolated and unresponsive to team communication. This anti-pattern of "what works for me" over "what works for the whole team" created significant dysfunction. Despite management intervention, the situation required creative solutions like organizing face-to-face sessions and shared working sessions with digital whiteboards to rebuild team cohesion. Featured Book of the Week: Agile Retrospectives One of the most important roles of Scrum Masters is to help teams develop themselves. Salum emphasizes that you can't tell the team what to do - you have to help them discover it themselves. "Agile Retrospectives" provides the foundation for running meaningful retrospectives that become the key tool for team self-development. The book's emphasis on variation and building retrospectives to match your team's needs and maturity level makes it essential for empowering teams to grow and evolve continuously. Self-reflection Question: How might your team's current work arrangements prioritize individual convenience over collective effectiveness, and what steps could you take to shift this balance?

This week, we're flipping the script.In this unique episode of The Profitable Cleaner Podcast, James Harper isn't hosting—he's the guest. Originally recorded on Dan and Lexi Schindler's show, The Cleaning Hustle Podcast, we're bringing you this candid conversation because it's packed with lessons you need to hear.From the truth about “cheap labor” VAs to how to create a culture of loyalty, performance, and trust across borders—this conversation is a masterclass in building virtual teams the right way.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with leadership coach Phil Wilson, author of The Leader-Shift Playbook: 4 Simple Changes to Score Big and Unleash Your Team's Potential. Phil shares his own “Mount Stupid” moment, when he realized the biggest obstacle to his team's success was actually himself, and how that wake-up call led to powerful changes in his leadership approach. The conversation dives into the four core shifts from his book, covering topics like the power of belief (in yourself and others), and how seemingly small habits shape team culture. Phil and Andy explore how frontline leaders can create real momentum by changing how they show up, how they relate to their team, and how they view their role as a leader. You'll also hear practical ways to build trust on remote teams and foster relationships that drive performance. If you're looking for insights on culture, trust, feedback, and practical leadership growth, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “There are no neutral interactions. You're either growing the culture or you're hurting the culture.” “The solution wasn't a Chief of Staff. What I needed was to be a better leader.” “Self-doubt isn't humility. It's fear dressed up as honesty.” "Beliefs drive behavior." “The belief you have about your team—whether they're heroes or villains—changes everything.” “You don't have the luxury of assuming anything other than the best about your people.” “Leadership actually happens in the conversations you're willing to have.” "Best and Best: Each person shares the best thing going on in their personal life, and the best thing going on in their work life." "The Three Happys: Three things from the day before that made you happy." “If you had a product you were selling, you'd ask your customers for feedback. As a leader, your team is your customer.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 02:06 Start of Interview 02:16 Phil's Family Influence on Leadership 05:15 Mount Stupid Moment: A Leadership Realization 09:11 Implementing EOS for Better Leadership 11:12 We're Always Making Culture 13:47 We Shape a Tone Just By Walking Into a Room: How Does that Work With Virtual Work? 16:04 Self-Doubt vs. Humility in Leadership 20:30 The Hero Assumption in Leadership 24:23 How to Show You Believe In Someone 26:54 The Importance of Relationships in Teams 29:09 Creating a Positive Team Culture 32:07 Applying Leadership Principles at Home 35:31 End of Interview 36:06 Andy Comments After the Interview 40:14 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Phil and his work at YourLeaderShift.com.

We've heard all the usual suspects when it comes to remote engagement—Slack check-ins, virtual happy hours, maybe an annual engagement survey if we're lucky. But what if the problem isn't the tools, but the assumptions? In this episode, David Rice sits down with Dr. Adora Ikwuemesi, whose recent qualitative study of remote workers in Nigeria reveals a much deeper, more nuanced picture of what truly drives—or erodes—remote engagement.Adora walks us through her seven-part framework that emerged from conversations with 24 remote workers. Spoiler: it's not just about more communication; it's about better connection. From the physical realities of working without reliable electricity, to the surprising role that fun plays in fostering commitment, this conversation strips engagement down to its real-world components—beyond perks and policies. If you think your team is “fine,” you may just be missing the silence before the storm.Related Links:Join the People Managing People community forumSubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Dr. Adora on LinkedInCheck out Dr. Adora's website and Kendor Consulting LtdSupport the show

If you want a business that doesn't suck the life out of you, this one's for you.Listen in and learn how to stop managing and start leading.

Episode Title: GPTs Replaced Endless File SearchingShow Notes:In this episode of the B2B Marketing Excellence & AI Podcast, I talk about a common frustration — when your computer crashes and you're forced to transfer everything. That happened to me recently, and instead of just moving over cluttered files, I decided to create a better system.I used this opportunity to build personalized GPTs (Generative Pretrained Transformers) inside ChatGPT to help me organize information so I could stop digging through folders, spreadsheets, and emails. Now, instead of asking “Where did I save that?” — I just ask my GPT.These GPTs have become my go-to system for locating key client information, marketing materials, podcast outlines, and internal resources — all in seconds.If you're overwhelmed by digital disorganization or tired of repeating the same searches, this episode will show you how to use AI to create a centralized, accessible, and reliable system for storing and retrieving information.You'll learn:Why I decided not to keep transferring messy files across computersHow GPTs help organize and recall key information instantlyReal-world examples of how I use GPTs to support client work and daily operationsSimple ways to get started creating your own GPT-based document systemAt World Innovators, we're all about helping B2B brands and Executives find smarter ways to reach the right audience — and that starts with staying organized internally.

They discuss the disruptive impact of artificial intelligence and automation on various industries and how leaders can prepare for these changes.

The conversation also touches on the concept of the Power Paradox, safeguarding connection in distributed work environments, and practical advice for parents on preparing their children for future work challenges. Wondering how to lead and deliver in this time of significant disruption? This episode is for you! Sound Bites “Leadership isn't always comfortable. In fact, it can be really hard… it does mean speaking out.” “What's unique about this time is the confluence of many things that leaders are having to face. It's led to a war for skills instead of a war for talent.” “This isn't soft work... we're going to be in an economic crisis because leaders are not in tune to the humans that are in their organizations.” “100% of them said they knew they needed to do something... yet only 25% were even thinking of doing something about it.” “The issue isn't that AI is taking over.
