BONUS: Incorporating Planet Earth as a Stakeholder in IT Development with Marjolein Pilon In this BONUS episode, we talk to Marjolein Pilon about her innovative approach of considering Planet Earth as a key stakeholder in software development. Through practical examples and actionable tips, she inspires teams to make meaningful changes towards a greener future. How to Bring Sustainability To Our Work As Scrum Masters "Frustration about climate change and wanting a better future for my children led me to explore the carbon footprint of our IT work." Marjolein's passion for environmental sustainability began with personal frustrations about climate change. Feeling that she had done all she could at home, she extended her concerns to her professional environment by asking about the carbon footprint of IT. This led to the creation of a 'planet retrospective,' where her team brainstormed ways to reduce their environmental impact. This approach proved to be so effective that she began facilitating these retrospectives for other teams, spreading the importance of seeing the planet as a stakeholder. Reframing Projects for Sustainability "Taking a simple first step can break down complexity and build motivation." Marjolein shares a story of a team that significantly reduced their carbon footprint by taking small, easy steps. Starting with the elimination of an unnecessary test environment, the team moved on to more substantial changes, such as optimizing database queries and shutting down unused applications outside office hours. Their efforts culminated in a 45% reduction in their carbon footprint, serving as an inspiration for other teams. Considering Planet Earth as a Stakeholder "We started looking at our software from the Planet Earth's perspective." For Marjolein, considering Planet Earth as a stakeholder means incorporating environmental considerations into every stage of software and product development. This perspective shift encourages teams to think about the long-term impacts of their work on the environment. Measuring Environmental Impact "Use costs as a proxy to convince managers to run sustainability sprints." Marjolein explains that measuring the environmental impact of software decisions can be straightforward. For on-premise servers, energy bills provide clear data, while cloud services like AWS and Azure offer carbon footprint dashboards. She advises teams to monitor metrics like disk access, memory versus disk usage, and query times to understand and reduce their carbon footprint. Making Sustainability Relatable For Agile Teams "We include planet earth and climate impact in the sprint reviews and definition of done." Marjolein emphasizes integrating sustainability into daily workflows, such as sprint reviews and definitions of done. This makes the concept of sustainability more tangible and actionable for smaller teams and startups. She explains how even small actions can have a significant collective impact. Balancing Innovation and Sustainability "Simple steps can align innovation, speed to market, and sustainability." Marjolein highlights the importance of balancing innovation, speed to market, and sustainability. By taking simple, actionable steps, teams can align these seemingly competing demands effectively. Recommended Resources Marjolein recommends the book "The Good Ancestor: How to Think Long Term in a Short-Term World" by Roman Krznaric For teams looking to integrate long-term environmental considerations into their development processes, this book provides a framework for thinking beyond immediate goals and considering the impact on future generations. About Marjolein Marjolein is an enthusiastic freelance Scrum Master and Agile Coach, committed to making the IT community more carbon-efficient. With a passion for Planet Earth and a knack for facilitating creative teams, she embodies agile and scrum values, promoting team autonomy and continuous improvement. Marjolein shares her insights on her website https://theagileplayground.com/. You can link with Marjolein Pilon on LinkedIn.

Ok, tell the truth—there's gotta be a project you started but didn't finish. For me, I'll admit, there are lots of those. Sometimes, I realized the need to quit, which may have been legit. But in other cases, it was due to my not having had the tenacity to go all in Rocky Balboa-style, and stay in the ring for the long haul.Our brains are wired for NOW and not as much for LATER. While this has been important for our overall survival, it has some negative side effects. That's because, as all of us know, so many of the awesome things we want in life take time. To use a phrase of my guest, it can take many "at-bats" to get the good stuff. So, to take us on a ride for that good stuff, my guest, one of the world's top executive coaches and a professor at Duke University's school of business, Dorie Clark (https://dorieclark.com/about/), will explain how and why to go for the long game. Coincidentally, the title of the book we'll discuss is her latest, The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World. I'm not alone in my love for Dorie's work. Among the many accolades her book has drawn, Forbes Magazine said, “Dorie's book helps us … create the kind of interesting, meaningful lives we all seek." So, listen in as Dorie and I get into it to help you get inspired to override your short-term brain and get up to bat for the long game. Book Link: https://tinyurl.com/2p8upuuc
Dear You! On this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times an immigration activist and legal powerhouse teaches us how to write letters to the selves we intend to become. Hillary Walsh, President and Founder of New Frontier Immigration Law, explains how this simple tool can help us determine – and then manifest – the things we want to be, do and have. It starts with articulating a vision – then identifying the week-by-week, month-by-month steps necessary to make it a reality. It's exactly this kind of focused goal-setting that has driven Hillary's growing legal advisory firm and foundation. You'll learn how she transcended childhood abuse, as well as stints in foster care and lockup, to become a crusader for the rights of those without a voice – victims of domestic violence, human trafficking and a broken immigration system. Gratitude is at the root of Hillary's ambitious goal to empower marginalized people – the core mission that animates her whole team at New Frontier Immigration Law on even the toughest of days. Says Hillary: “The only way out of a ditch is not to dig more. It's not to have someone pull you out. It's up to you to levitate out.” Now there's a thought for your next motivational letter!Did you try our 60-second letter-writing exercise?

Whenever you think your people are your problem, it's because you're out of alignment with your own core values! QUOTABLE“I hate pretending because authenticity is one of my core values.” (Hillary)“I've accepted that my life is going to be very out of balance. I think seeking balance is the enemy of innovation and achievement.” (Hillary)“I'm very dissatisfied, which is why I want to change so much and make a really lasting impact that outlives me.” (Hillary)“I don't need people to know my name when I'm gone, but I need the shit that I did now to matter in three generations.” (Hillary)“You're fighting for something really, really, really big and meeting resistance. And that resistance comes in the form of loneliness … self-doubt … Imposter Syndrome … pleasing others and challenging your ability to do what you need to get done.” (Chris)“As I started figuring out the ‘what' I wanted to do, the ‘who' that was going to make it happen started showing up in my life.” (Hillary)“We get so caught up in the minutiae. We are very short term-oriented people, but we can pause and broaden our perspectives.” (Chris)“Long-term thinking helps us to remember in the short term why we're doing things. It's a reminder of core values.” (Hillary)“Gratitude is not just about being grateful for positive things ... It can be used to help pick you up out of a hole, to find positive benefits in negative autobiographical experience. It's a tool for resilience, self-confidence, self-efficacy.” (Chris)“You think you've got it all figured out and then your business levels your ego in this exhilarating but exhausting kind of way.” (Hillary)“The only way out of a ditch is not to dig more. It's not to have someone pull you out. It's for you to levitate out.” (Hillary)“Money won't solve every problem, but having the comfort of knowing you consistently have enough and that you can change your trajectory … is a gamechanger.” (Hillary)“In order to see the change you want to see in others, first you have to make change within yourself … It's not about changing others. It's about clearing up your side of the street.” (Chris) LINKS/FURTHER RESOURCES:"Lonely at the Top: The High Cost of Men's Success," by Thomas E.

Today, we're celebrating the 300th episode of the Rebel Uprising Podcast. Recently, someone asked me what it takes to get to 300 episodes of the podcast and for me, it was about playing the long game. I just kept turning on the mic, week after week, month after month, year after year. The podcast has always been a strategic business priority and a core piece of my marketing strategy. But the real secret sauce? I love doing this. And the best marketing you can do is marketing that you love to create. So let's pop the champagne, throw some confetti, and come celebrate with me as I reflect on what it means to play the long game, what I've learned from creating 300 episodes, and what's next for me and the podcast. In this episode: Why playing the long game with marketing you love to create is a more successful and sustainable strategy than following the shoulds How this podcast nurtures potential clients and takes the pressure off sales calls Why I'm making 2023 the Year of Experts and I want you to join me Learn more about Michelle Mazur: Communication Rebel Three Word Rebellion Request a free 1:1 Chat Finally Nail Your Message Resources: The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World, Dorie Clark Tara McMullin What the 3 Word Rebellion Does for Your Business Against the Rules with Michael Lewis
“It's so easy to be pushed into short-term thinking and short-term solutions. But to make progress on our most meaningful priorities, and create the career we truly want for ourselves, it's necessary to fight back and carve out space for long-term thinking.” – Dorie Clark Leading coach and multi-published author Dorie Clark is on today to discuss her most recent book, The Long Game: How to be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World. There are so many key strategies in this book that you'll want to revisit to maximize your time and live intentionally. Dorie shares some stories from her life as an example of what's is possible when you apply long term thinking strategies. You will be inspired and motivated after listening to this interview! All of the show notes can be found at thegoodlifecoach.com/148. While on the show notes page, be sure to access the free resource Dorie provides. Also I'd love for you to join our community. You'll receive more inspiration and tips to love yourself and your life. For a short time, you'll get a FREE copy of Michele's Book, Design a Life You Love. WHAT WE DISCUSS: Why “playing the long game is doing the things today that will make tomorrow easier.” Three key strategies from Dorie's book that can help you figure out your long-term plan: Create more white space for ourselves Focus on your own voice so you understand what you want to be optimizing for Keep the faith – if there is a long term goal there will always be detours, surprises, and obstacles along the way Why one of the biggest challenges people face is the huge distance between starting the journey and finishing it. What it means to look for the “rain drops” and how that can keep you motivated. How we can have exponential growth and yet it still feels like zero progress and how to navigate that. Twenty percent time. This idea came from Google but Dorie says many people don't do it. You need to allocate 20 percent of your time to growth activities and it gives you more optionality in the future. Dorie used this strategy to begin work on a broadway musical. Very cool! Don't underestimate what you can get done in ten years if you set the goal today and actively work towards it. The importance of networking/ cultivating a network. What it means to optimize for interesting, and how this is better than searching for your passion or purpose. DORIE'S 3 BEST TIP FOR LIVING A GOOD LIFE: Get better at tightening the criteria for what you say “yes” to as you get more senior and in demand. Drink a lot of water. Be a good daughter and reach out to the older people in your life. It becomes more important that you be in touch and call them. It means a lot to them and it is time well spent.

Thought leadership creates real results - but measuring them can be difficult, especially in the short-term. But smart thought leaders know: it's the long-term results that really change the game! Dorie Clark has been twice named one of the Top 50 Business Thinkers in the World by Thinkers50, and the #1 Communication Coach in the World by the Marshall Goldsmith Leading Global Coaches Awards. She's a consultant, keynote speaker, and author of multiple books including her newest: The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World. She knows that lasting success takes persistence, effort, and day-by-day advancement, completing a thousand small goals along the way. Our conversation begins on the topic of personal branding. How do you differentiate branding from thought leadership? Dorie explains how thought leadership can create trust and even put you ahead of the competition, by giving potential clients a sneak peek into who you are and where you specialize. Still, it takes long-term work to create lasting success.Dorie shares her insights into the pains a lot of thought leaders suffer when they first start creating content, and how to hang on for the first few years before your big results manifest. By combining consistent content and using multiple modalities to reach your audience, thought leadership efforts can have a huge impact on your business. Lastly, Dorie discusses her newest book, and how publishing can add to your thought leadership movement. Peter and Dorie discuss books as revenue drivers (they aren't), and how a book can introduce your audience to your content, share your most valuable insights, and generate interest in your work. Combined with a strategic business model, a book release can be an important part of building a viable business for speaking, consulting, online courses and more. Three Key Takeaways: * Thought leadership can create a level of trust and familiarity with a potential client. This can be the difference maker that sets you apart. * While there can be overlap between thought leadership and content marketing, thought leadership should be more substantive and less transactional. * Thought leadership needs many touch-points for its audience to engage. Consider writing articles, guesting on or hosting a podcast, doing keynotes, and writing a book. The more modalities you utilize, the better chance you have of reaching your audience.
What if everyone's overarching go-to-market strategy were kindness? Well, for Host Chris Schembra's guest on this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, it's a concept that has been central to building a $200 million company. CEO Sam Jacobs launched Pavilion, his membership-based leadership community, after coming to a deep understanding of something very basic: We start to gain when we learn to let go. He is sharing with us the human-centric elements that are foundational not only for successful business ventures but for successful (i.e. peaceful and meaningful) lives. Sam explains how he moved away from grasping and attachment to outcomes in favor of something more authentic expansive. You'll come away from this heart-centered conversation with a clear understanding of the interplay between how we talk to ourselves and what we offer the world; why failure can be our friend and how to take a long-term approach that replaces the transactional with ongoing connectedness, personal fulfillment and long-term business growth.Sam founded Pavilion in 2016 as a support network for revenue leaders and has since opened chapters globally, establishing a robust platform for peer-to-peer connection, training, development and career resources for all high-growth professionals. Most recently, Sam is out with a new book that will change the way you think about engaging with the marketplace, whether as a corporate employee or aspiring entrepreneur.

After four firings from five jobs in a short period of time, Sam seized an opportunity to change his trajectory and patterns of thought/behavior.Ultimate Job Satisfaction: Knowing how to generate happiness and a sense of peace.About how high participation and low attachment correlates with a universal flow of abundance in our direction.Negotiation as a career hack (and source of protection) amidst constant turnover:Do your due diligence.Pre-negotiate your severance.Be realistic about the shifts that happen after the honeymoon phase.Sam Defines Success Based on Three Key Elements:What you're good at.What you're (truly) interested in doing.Where the market is moving.About Pavilion's evolution, based on letting go of pre-conceived notions and creating self-sustaining revenue as well as a source of kindness and light in the world.Contemplating an entrepreneurial risk? Consider what might happen when you stop giving all your best ideas (and energy) to someone else's enterprise.Sam reflects on the agility required to move with markets, keeping fluid and aligning through empathy with what's happening in real time (as Pavilion did while riding the waves of pandemic)Sam's Principles for Kindness – and Success:Thinking long-term rather than transactionally builds connection.Releasing attachment decreases neediness and increases openness to surprising outcomes.Winning every single negotiation isn't the endgame. It's about building relationships over time.Sam's Formula: How to manifest $25 million in funding and a business valued at more than $200 million by emphasizing not what's missing but the joy in what's already here!Creating the Mental Attitude to Prevail:Don't chase the dollar!Re-channel negativity (true or not) towards the big-picture goal.Change the negative narratives in your head.Retrain the Brain: Substitute affirmations and self-care for unkind mental tapes.It takes nothing from anyone else for us to be kind to ourselves! QUOTABLE“What I expected when I started my career was that as you became more and more senior you achieve some level of stability, prosperity and independence but that was not happening for me.” (Sam)“Five years ago I decided … I cared more about a feeling of being independent, believing in myself, establishing some level of stability. What I most wanted was peace.” (Sam)“Gratitude is the frequency most harmonious with abundance.” (Sam) “(Pre-negotiated severance) is not about the money, it's about reducing the level of anxiety you have when you show up to work every day.” (Sam)“When you work for somebody else you're not even renting, you are selling – forever – your best ideas to somebody else.” (Sam)“If you can listen to what the market is telling you and try to respond and provide a solution rapidly, then you can be aligned with the market. It's a process – not a static state.” (Sam)“It increases the likelihood that wonderful serendipity will happen when I don't need anything specific to happen tomorrow.” (Sam)“I'm really good at being generous and thinking long-term … and it always has a way of coming back around.” (Chris)“I try to do the right thing and treat people well … I've left my mark on this planet and hopefully I'm only halfway done, so that's something to be proud of.” (Sam)“One of the cool things you can do in life is to not be so goal- or purpose- or destination-oriented but just give yourself the chance to do nothing, take a walk in nature with no particular aim.” (Chris) LINKS/FURTHER RESOURCES:"Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It," by Chris Voss.Click here to learn about the works of Nobel Prize-winning psychologist Daniel Kahneman.

The world seems to be moving faster and faster but there is always a need to plan for the longer arc of life. Having a strategy lets you set short goals while achieving progress toward your longer ones. Now more than ever people need to be intentional about the strategies they use in creating a career. Building these strategies in different areas of your life is what today's episode is all about.Dorie Clark is a teacher at Duke and Colombia University's business schools, a speaker who has given lectures from Harvard Business School to Google HQ, and a prolific author of the books Stand Out, Reinventing You, Entrepreneurial You, and her newest book The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World. Dorie and Greg talk about playing the long game, and what that means in your business life and personal life. They also talk about what it looks like to think long term in a world where short term needs are always pressing, and how to think about time allocation for the important things in life.Episode Quotes:The power of stories for behavioral change24:08: A story is a really good way to get in the side door. So that it's essentially evading people's objections because if you're telling somebody: “research says…”, "Do this or do that," there's often just a lot of backlash that people have:” I couldn't do that.” But if they're hearing a narrative, which is not, "Oh, you have to do this," but it's, "Well, here, let me tell you about somebody you know, like you, who did that thing," And they realize, it's a lot less threatening of a way to present information, and it lets it roll around in people's brains and say, "Oh, I'm not that different from that person. Maybe I could try it.' And that can become really powerful.02:48: There's almost no one in the world that thinks that strategy is a bad thing. It's not like there's an anti-strategy contingent arguing against it. Everybody thinks it's good. Everybody pays lip service to it. But the problem is that almost no one does it.Why do we need a coach?25:38: The answer is we don't always. Sometimes a book is perfectly sufficient for what you want to do. It depends on how important the issue is to you and how detailed of an instruction you require.Overweighting our short-term thinking can be a liability17:50: If we're investing money, if we're investing our finances, everybody understands that if your portfolio is overweight in a certain asset, that may be great while that asset is performing well, but it is extremely dangerous over the long term because there probably is going to be some reversal.Show Links:Guest Profile:Instructor's Profile on UdemySpeaker's Profile on TEDTalkSpeaker's Profile on WeSpeakersDorie Clark's WebsiteThe Long Game: Your Stretegic Thinking Self-AssessmentDorie Clark on LinkedInDorie Clark on TwitterDorie on YoutubeDorie Clark on YoutubeDorie Clark on TEDXBostonTrajectory MastermindHer Work:Articles on Harvard Business ReviewThe Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term WorldReinventing You, With a New Preface: Define Your Brand, Imagine Your FutureEntrepreneurial You: Monetize Your Expertise, Create Multiple Income Streams, and Thrive

"Proper scoping about our timing and our expectations by learning from previous examples is one of the best things that we can do to ensure that we're more likely to succeed at the business elements of the law. ” - Dorie Clark What was Dorie Clark's journey to becoming a prolific author? What obstacles complicate long-term strategic thinking? What are the real emotional and cultural reasons behind “busy” obsession? What is “white space” and why is it necessary for strategic thinking? How can those with limited discretion of time create more “white space” in their lives? Why should we optimize for meaning and impact over money? How can thinking in waves make you an expert in any field? Courage, Resilience, Curiosity To create a meaningful life — both professionally and personally — we need to strategically plan for the future. Yet so many lose sight of the end goal, letting over-scheduled calendars and busy work cloud our vision. To realign with lasting success means reframing priorities and making unscheduled time a non-negotiable. Persistence and effort are necessary to consistently make the small changes that have big impact. Dorie Clark is a professor at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and Columbia Business School, consultant, and presidential campaign keynote speaker who has been named a Top 50 Business Thinker in the world by Thinkers50. The Wall Street Journal best-selling author of "The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World" offers solutions so that we can think critically about long-term planning and goal setting. In this episode, we look at the common blocks of long-term strategic thinking and how to overcome them. Dorie reframes busyness as a form of avoidance and shares what we should be doing instead. Plus, explore the waves that can help anyone become an expert in their field. An Expert in Any Field As the lifecycle of a goal progresses, actions that once had traction no longer move us forward. Despite sustained effort, we are left feeling stuck. The solution? Pause, identify your wave, and shift accordingly. Dorie identifies key waves that must be followed in succession to become an expert. The first wave is learning. An attorney new to a firm gets oriented with the major players and operations. In the creating wave, a lawyer will participate, raise their hand, and add value. The connecting phase ensures that the value added is seen by the right leaders. To make partner, principals need to know their name. Once a contributor enjoys a level of prestige and respect — obtained the role of General Counsel or Partner — they have entered the reaping wave. While extremely satisfying, it is critical to disrupt yourself and go back to the learning phase. This time with less risk and more enjoyment. Key takeaways: Busy or avoiding? Slow down and refocus on what will move the needle. Use the extra time to lean into the uncomfortable. Less is more. Allow for unstructured time to give the flexibility necessary to deal with whatever may come up. This allows clarity of mind to think strategically. Think long-term. Ride out the short-term losses and setbacks. Make choices that get you closer to the end goal.

Mind Love • Modern Mindfulness to Think, Feel, and Live Well
We will learn: The real reasons we are all so busy. How to identify the right goals and go after them strategically. How to map out implementation by thinking in waves. It's not really a secret, we live in a short term world. Back in 2000 a study came out that we had about a 12 second attention span. By 2015 it had dropped to 8 seconds on average… shorter than that of a goldfish. A shorter attention span causes shallow information processing. Longer attention leads to better memory and sustained attention is always linked to deeper information processing. So much of the relentless pressure in our culture pushes us toward doing what's easy, what's guaranteed, or what looks glamorous in the moment. So how do we shift to doing small things over time to achieve our goals—and being willing to keep at them, even when they seem pointless, boring, or hard? And that's what we're talking about today. Our guest is Dorie Clark, adjunct professor at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and author of multiple bestsellers.
