Story Point Estimations are failing your Team! - Here We Go Again...Story Pointing wasn't a completely novel idea. It evolved out of the Delphi method — a research technique that helped drive consensus and forecasting built on collective wisdom. In 1950s, RAND Corporation began using it as a way to forecast the effect of technology on warfare.So, it wasn't just an idea dreamed up by someone in the Agile community randomly — no. It's actually based on a scientific approach. Something that's been applied and true in other disciplines for many, many years.And, when Scrum needed a prescriptive technique to help the Teams estimate and measure the amount of work the Team could consistently deliver Sprint after Sprint, this became a recommended approach.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] ⁠https://www.agiledad.com/⁠- [instagram] ⁠https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/⁠- [facebook] ⁠https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/⁠- [Linkedin] ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

Do you ever wonder why you're doing a certain workout, not just how? This week Coach Ben Sommerville joins the podcast to break down some of the most effective swim workouts to help you train smarter, not just harder. We are tackling swim sessions: Broken 200s, Broken 1500s, Broken Ladders, Threshold 150s, Sprint 50s and more! Coach Ben explains the purpose behind each workout, what systems of the body they target, and how to execute them for maximum benefit. Whether you're aiming to finish the workout or are hunting for the elusive "narwhal," understanding the why behind your TriDot workout might be the edge you've been missing.

You asked, we're answering. In this listener Q&A episode, Amber and Carolyn tackle the hard questions GTM leaders are wrestling with behind closed doors…from broken attribution models to navigating organizational resistance when you're trying to drive real change.In this episode:Real talk on entrepreneurship: the wins, the loneliness, and knowing when to walk awayNavigating organizational resistance when you're championing changeWhy being in the top 5% of GTM leaders means accepting you're always pushing uphillWhy first-touch and last-touch attribution keep haunting you (and how to finally escape)How to get executive buy-in when everyone's comfortable with the status quoWhy deals from different sources have wildly different ACVs and win ratesThe systematic reality of revenue generation, and why singular attribution models completely miss itThis isn't surface-level advice. Amber and Carolyn are in the trenches daily with CROs, CMOs and RevOps leaders, rearchitecting go-to-market strategies and challenging sacred cows. We're bringing real examples to this convo, honest reflections about entrepreneurship, and zero sugarcoating about what separates companies that evolve from those that don't.Keep sending your questions. We want to hear your hot takes, especially if you disagree with what we're saying.

In this fifth and final episode of the Learn Like a Lobster skill sprint, Helen and Sarah introduce "Helpful How-Tos" - a simple, fun way to share knowledge that helps you learn faster and helps your team too. You'll discover why sharing makes learning stick, how to overcome confidence gremlins, and a practical (and fun) format you can use immediately with your team to keep learning and growing.

When it comes to learning at work, it's easy to wait for permission - from managers, organisations, or “the right moment.” In this episode, Helen and Sarah explore how to lead your own learning, even when time, money, or support feel limited. This is Day 4 of the Learn Like A Lobster skill sprint, and the focus is on adaptability — the skill that helps you keep learning when things don't go to plan. Helen and Sarah explain why relying on perfect conditions can stall your development, and how adapting your approach helps you stay resilient and relevant at work.

Today we are talking endurance.We breakdown the quote: “The trick in any field, from finance to careers to relationships is being able to survive the short-run problems. So you can stick around long enough to enjoy the long-term growth.” from Same as Ever by Morgan Housel's.Housel basically says the real trick is surviving the short-term problems long enough to benefit from the long-term ones. Which sounds obvious until you are in the middle of the short-term problems and losing your mind.In case you were wondering, the short-term problems never go away. They just change shape. Different job. Same stuff. New title. Same annoyances. Different company. Same human behavior.Endurance does not get nearly enough credit at work. Talent gets praised. Intelligence gets rewarded. Big ideas get airtime. But most careers are built by the people who can stay steady when things get boring, messy, repetitive, or just plain annoying.We talk about what endurance actually looks like in real life. Not grit as a poster on the wall, but the ability to compartmentalize, keep perspective, and not spiral every time something goes sideways. Showing up with energy even when you do not feel inspired. Doing the work in front of you instead of obsessing over everything else.We also get into effort. The stuff that takes no talent. Being prepared. Paying attention. Staying focused. Not quitting early just because something got hard or uncomfortable.If work feels heavy right now, if you are tired of the short-term problems and wondering when it gets easier, this one is a reminder that staying power matters.This is WORK.

This is Day 3 of the Learn Like a Lobster skill sprint, and today Helen and Sarah share a simple way of reflecting on hard moments at work so you can learn faster, avoid recency bias, and take control in tough situations.Because when work feels messy, reflection is often the first thing we skip - or overdo. In this episode, you'll learn practical tools, including the 5:1 formula and the WWW/EBI framework, to help you regain perspective, stay in control, and turn difficult moments into learning.

This is Day 2 of the Learn Like a Lobster skill sprint, and today Helen and Sarah focus on one of the hardest - and most important - career skills: how to give and receive tough feedback. Learning doesn't just happen after the difficult moment has passed - some of the most powerful development happens while things feel uncomfortable. In this episode, Helen and Sarah explore how to learn in the hard moments — particularly when feedback feels awkward, emotional, or risky.

What does it really look like to run a focused fundraising SPRINT™ without a gala, a big team, or running yourself into the ground?In this episode, I'm joined by Megan Ihnen, Executive Director of Live Music Project, for an honest conversation about what actually changed when she simplified her approach and trusted momentum over perfection. In just two weeks, Megan raised 108% of her campaign goal, not by doing more, but by doing the right things in the right order. We talk about what happens when you stop overcomplicating fundraising, shorten the timeline, lean into direct, human asks, and activate the network you already have. We also get real about burnout, fear of asking, donor psychology, matching gifts, peer-to-peer fundraising, and why speed and clarity almost always outperform polish. If you're feeling stretched thin, second-guessing your strategy, or stuck repeating tactics that aren't moving the needle, this episode will help you see what's possible when fundraising finally works with you instead of against you.Topics:Why collapsing timelines creates fundraising momentumMoving from burnout to clarity with sprint-style campaignsActivating your personal network without guilt or fearThe power of texting and direct human asksMatching gifts as momentum multipliersBoard and peer-to-peer fundraising done simplyNavigating rejection, silence, and donor non-responseUsing AI as a thought partner, not a replacementStewardship and nurturing after a successful SPRINT™Turning one campaign into a repeatable fundraising systemFor a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Bloomerang is the complete donor, volunteer, and fundraising management solution that helps thousands of nonprofits deliver a better giving experience and create sustainable, thriving organizations.

Most marketing and revenue leaders know their data model is flawed. The elite ones actually architect something new. This is how.This episode is part of a 5-part series exploring the journey B2B revenue leaders take from reactive chaos to finally understanding, measuring, and transforming their entire Revenue Factory. Each stage represents a critical inflection point and the exact moments that separate leaders who consistently hit targets and drive real, provable results.This episode explores Stage 4: Architecting Transformation—where you shift from recognizing what's broken to designing what comes next. This is where transformation moves from concept to practice.What We Cover in This Episode:The two realizations that trigger readiness for transformation: understanding the career-ending cost of staying in a broken system AND seeing lived proof of what's possible when you rebuildThe 4 core elements your new data model MUST have: removing department silos, multi-dimensional tracking, the new GTM stages, and unified metrics with separate accountabilityWhy the old Demand Waterfall model is structurally broken and what the Engage → Prospect → Pipeline framework unlocksHow to operate GTM like a relay race instead of siloed teams competing for creditThe exact business case framework to get leadership buy-in (including how to quantify the revenue you're leaving on the table)Build vs. buy: Understanding the "Time Tax" and why elite teams move 4–5x faster with proven frameworksThe 3 critical mistakes that kill transformation before it even starts and how to avoid themThis is the episode for every revenue, marketing, or GTM leader who has ever thought:"I know what needs to change, but I don't know where to start""How do I get leadership to invest in this transformation?""What does the new model actually need to look like?"Stage 4 is where you become the architect of your own transformation. This is where you stop talking about change and start building it.

Today's guest is Aaron Uthoff. Aaron Uthoff, PhD, is a sport scientist and coach whose work sits right at the intersection of biomechanics, motor learning, and sprint performance. His research digs into acceleration, force application, and some less conventional forms of locomotion, including backward sprinting, with the goal of connecting solid science to what actually works on the field, track, or in rehab. Backward running shows up all the time in warm-ups and general prep. Most of the time, though, it's thrown in casually, without much thought about what it might actually be doing for speed, coordination, or tissue loading. In this episode, Aaron walks through his path into performance science, which is anything but linear. From skiing in Montana and playing desert sports, to football and track, to a stretch training horses in Australia, his journey eventually led him to research mentors in Arizona, Scotland, and New Zealand. That broad background shows up clearly in how he thinks about movement. One of the big takeaways from our conversation is Aaron's overview of research showing that structured backward running programs can improve forward acceleration and even jumping ability. We also get into how backward running can be used as a screening and coordination tool, and where it fits into rehabilitation, including what's happening at the joints, how muscles are working, and how to progress it without forcing things. We finish by digging into wearable resistance, including asymmetrical loading, and why this emerging tool may have more upside for speed and movement development than most people realize.

(https://www.just-fly-sports.com/podcast-home/) Topics 0:00 – Aaron's background and coaching lens 6:40 – Seeing movement through posture and orientation 13:25 – Why breathing changes how athletes move 20:45 – Tempo, rhythm, and shaping better movement 30:10 – Constraints based coaching and problem-solving 40:55 – Sprint mechanics without over cueing 51:20 – Using environment to guide adaptation 1:01:30 – Blending strength work with movement quality 1:12:15 – Coaching intuition, feedback, and learning to see Actionable Takeaways 6:40 – Posture sets the ceiling for movement quality Good movement often starts with orientation, not technique cues. Aaron emphasizes looking at ribcage position, pelvis orientation, and head placement before trying to fix limb mechanics. Clean posture gives athletes access to better options without forcing patterns. 13:25 – Breathing influences coordination and output Breathing is not just recovery, it shapes how force is expressed. Use simple breathing resets to help athletes feel better alignment and rhythm. Watch how breathing patterns change movement quality before adding more coaching input. 20:45 – Tempo reveals how athletes organize movement Tempo exposes whether an athlete can control positions under time pressure. Slowing or slightly speeding tasks can uncover compensations without verbal instruction. Use tempo to teach rhythm instead of constantly correcting mechanics. 30:10 – Constraints beat constant verbal cueing Aaron highlights using task constraints to guide learning instead of over explaining. Change distances, targets, or starting positions to let athletes self organize. Good constraints reduce the need for constant coaching intervention. 40:55 – Sprint mechanics improve through shapes, not forcing positions Trying to force textbook sprint positions often backfires. Focus on global shapes and direction of force instead of individual joint angles. Let athletes discover better sprint mechanics through drills that preserve intent. 51:20 – Environment is a powerful teacher Surface, space, and task design matter more than many cues. Use varied environments to expand an athlete's movement vocabulary. Small changes in environment can create big changes in coordination. 1:01:30 – Strength training should support movement, not override it Strength work should expand options, not lock athletes into rigid patterns. Choose lifts and loading schemes that preserve posture and rhythm. If strength training degrades movement quality, reassess the intent. 1:12:15 – Coaching is about learning what to ignore Not every flaw needs fixing. Aaron emphasizes knowing which details matter in the moment and which do not. Better coaches simplify their lens rather than add more rules. Quotes from Aaron Uthoff “Posture is often the biggest limiter of movement quality, not strength or mobility.” “Breathing changes how the nervous system organizes movement.” “Tempo tells you more about coordination than maximal output ever will.” “If you have to keep cueing it, the task probably needs to change.” “Good sprinting comes from better shapes, not chasing perfect positions.” “The environment can do more coaching than your words.” “Strength should give athletes more options, not fewer.” “Part of coaching maturity is learning what not to coach.” About Aaron Uthoff Aaron Uthoff, PhD, is a sport scientist, researcher, and coach focused on human movement, sprint mechanics, and motor learning. He holds a doctorate in kinesiology, with research centered on how neuromuscular factors influence speed, coordination, and efficiency. He is especially known for his work on acceleration, sprinting, and unconventional locomotor strategies such as backward running, and how these methods affect force application, tissue stress, and motor control. His work blends strong scientific foundations with practical coaching insight, making it highly relevant for track and field, team sports, and rehabilitation environments. Alongside his research, Aaron works closely with coaches and athletes to translate complex biomechanical and neurological ideas into simple, usable training concepts. His approach values curiosity, experimentation, and respecting how the body naturally adapts when it's exposed to new movement challenges.

Scrum Is NOT Dead... It's Obsolete?(Did someone actually Go here?) AAAAAAAhhhhhhhh!Stand-ups are still happening. Sprint planning still blocks calendars every few weeks. Retrospectives still end with “we should communicate better.” Jira boards are still very busy.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] ⁠https://www.agiledad.com/⁠- [instagram] ⁠https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/⁠- [facebook] ⁠https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/⁠- [Linkedin] ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

Every leader faces it… the moment you realize someone on your team just isn't cutting it..Too often, leaders hold onto struggling employees out of compassion, hope, or fear of being “too harsh.” But avoiding hard decisions can quietly drain energy, stall team performance, and create bigger problems down the line.In this episode of Let's Talk, People, Emily sits down with Mary Beech, Chief Growth Officer at Thorne, to explore one of leadership's toughest balancing acts: managing performance with clarity and care and knowing when it's time to call it. Together, they unpack how to recognize when coaching isn't enough, how to make confident calls under pressure, and how to support your high performers. Mary shares personal lessons she learned the hard way, from holding on too long, to learning that accountability is an act of empathy.Whether you're a new manager navigating difficult conversations or a seasoned leader looking to sharpen your performance management skills, this episode offers practical tools and mindset shifts to help you lead with clarity, fairness, and heart.Timestamps: [00:01:15] Acting with Empathy and Accountability in Tough Decisions –Underperformance isn't a relationship issue. It's a team issue. As leaders, our job is to protect the business and the team, not just preserve one relationship. Mary describes how delaying difficult performance decisions can quietly erode trust, credibility, and team morale.[00:07:32] The Sprint vs. Marathon of Managing Performance – Be very intentional about which people you spend your time on. Treat your coaching and attention like a portfolio. Emily and Mary unpack when it's appropriate for leaders to overinvest time with certain team members, and how leaders can leverage strategies to balance time between both high and low performers.[00:13:09]: Evolving Roles from Generalists to Specialists – As your business evolves, not everyone will still fit the needs. What worked in an early, generalist-heavy stage may not work in a more specialized, scaled environment. Emily and Mary discuss how sometimes the most caring choice is to clarify the new expectations and support someone to shift roles or move on.[00:22:22] Feedback as a Lifelong Skill – Giving clear and timely feedback gives you credibility and reinforces you as the leader. Mary reflects on why feedback isn't a box to check but a practice to keep refining, even for experienced executives. They discuss real-time coaching and how ongoing conversations strengthen your credibility, align the broader leadership team, and give the individual a real chance to adjust.Access the episode transcript.Join the Conversation: This year we're taking audience questions!

In this solo episode, I'm sharing the exact 12 week sprint system that completely changed how I set and complete my goals.Instead of giving myself an entire year to “figure it out,” I learned that shrinking the timeline created clarity, urgency, and momentum. I walk you through how I choose my goals, break them down into manageable weekly actions, and build in a recalculation rule that allows for real life instead of an idealized version of it.If you have ever started the year motivated only to feel your goals quietly drift away by February, this episode gives you a simple and realistic framework you can start using right now.In This Episode, I Share:Why yearly goal setting gives side hustlers too much room to procrastinate and how 12 week sprints create clarity and momentumHow I choose just three goals per sprint with one clear focus per monthThe simple way I break monthly goals into realistic weekly tasks that actually get doneWhy daily five minute reviews and one weekly self accountability day keep my goals from driftingThe recalculation rule that helps me keep going when life gets messy without guilt or quittingHighlights Include00:00 Why annual goals do not work for busy side hustlers02:50 How 12 week sprints eliminate procrastination05:55 The rule of only three goals with one focus per month10:20 Why writing my goals down is non negotiable12:40 How I break goals into simple weekly tasks14:45 The recalculation rule that keeps me moving forward17:00 Choosing a weekly self accountability day21:00 Your 12 week sprint challengeLinks Mentioned in This EpisodeGoalgetter Action Plan: https://sidehustlepro.co/goalgetterSide Hustle Pro Website: https://sidehustlepro.co/Watch this episode on YouTube and listen on all podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/side-hustle-pro/id1126021323Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8tYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/sidehustlepro Hosted on Acast.

January Is Not a Sprint January doesn't need to be rushed. In this episode, Jo discusses slowing down, rejecting fake urgency, and starting the year with intention rather than pressure. A gentle reminder that rest is not falling behind.  

In this episode, Carolyn and Amber break down a real-world case study of a $25M ARR enterprise SaaS company in a highly regulated industry that came to Passetto with strong teams, active demand, and declining win rates...but no reliable way to explain the genetic makeup of their deals or prove how marketing influenced revenue.We break down what surfaced during a 14-day analysis: why most opportunities had no clear lineage, how underperforming channels like paid search were absorbing spend without driving meaningful conversion, and how marketing influence effectively disappeared once deals entered the sales cycle.Most importantly, we share how rebuilding visibility across the funnel can turn win rate into a controllable lever, and why we estimate this shift alone could unlock ~$1M in incremental revenue, without increasing pipeline volume, budget, or headcount.We break down the insights their team uncovered:Why 80% of opportunities ($3.5M) had no explainable lineage, making pipeline creation effectively invisibleWhy paid search underperformed by driving low-intent traffic instead of pipeline-ready buyersHow marketing influence dropped to near zero in late-stage deals, leaving active opportunities unsupportedWhy win rate, not pipeline volume, was the primary revenue constraintHow improving visibility alone created a clear, estimated ~$1M revenue upside using the existing pipeline and budgetThis episode shows how a clear view into what actually drives revenue became a forcing function for action, giving this team's leadership the confidence to move fast, fix foundational gaps, and use the findings as a business case for planning the first two quarters of 2026.

Everyone wants to sprint into 2026 with big goals and high energy. But emotions fade. Willpower runs out. And by February, most resolutions are dead.In this video, I unpack Zechariah 4:6-10 and share why the first quarter of 2026 is your FOUNDATION season.Intro: Not By Might, But By His SpiritThe Temptation to Sprint in the FleshDon't Despise Small BeginningsHow to Use Q1 to Build Systems That Last

Sales professionals are renowned for their drive, energy, and resilience. Yet, behind every high-performing salesperson lies a critical, often-overlooked factor: physical fitness. In this episode, we welcome back Shane Gibson, a global sales performance expert, AI for sales strategist, and accomplished author. Shane shares his wealth of knowledge on the link between physical fitness and sales performance, revealing how health and mindful habits drive long-term results in the high-pressure world of sales. We discuss actionable fitness routines and strategies to manage stress, stay resilient, and avoid burnout, all tailored for busy sales professionals. Listen in for practical advice and a fresh perspective on creating a sustainable, high-performance lifestyle in sales. Outline of This Episode 00:00 Success requires a sustained focus on fitness. 03:51 Balancing fitness and mental growth. 08:21 Mixing conference travel and fitness habits. 13:56 Prioritize sales and wellness strategically. 17:00 Commitment to health and accountability. 19:24 Creating sustainable goals. 25:41 Daily sales improvement process. Why Physical Fitness Isn't Optional for Top Salespeople Shane frames physical fitness as foundational, likening the salesperson to a machine that needs proper fuel, nutrition, movement, hydration, and mental health breaks. Sure, you can try and trade unhealthy habits for short-term gains, but the long-term consequences can be dire. Leaving you with health issues that emerge during prime earning years, threatening careers just as they're reaching their peak. Don't treat success as a sprint, think of it as a marathon which needs sustained energy and a commitment to physical and mental wellness. Neglecting health for wealth will inevitably come back to bite you. Prioritize well-being, not just quarterly goals. Fitness Habits That Drive Sales Performance Shane's approach to maintain peak performance is practical and approachable: Running (Zone 2 Training): Shane runs three times a week, primarily focusing on Zone 2 training, a technique proven to boost brain function and aid recovery. Martial Arts: He attends and teaches martial arts classes, practicing daily for at least 15 minutes to foster hand-eye coordination and mental elasticity. Stretching & Mobility: Regular stretching supports physical longevity, especially as demands increase or with age. Integrating Fitness into a Busy Lifestyle Shane proactively schedules fitness into his calendar, prioritizing early arrivals at conferences to squeeze in a run or gym session. The secret lies in small, purposeful gaps of time: "filling in cracks" with movement and breathing exercises, whether waiting for AI tools to process client research or spending idle moments practicing martial arts drills. These "wellness snacks" keep him sharp, resilient, and ready for high-stakes meetings. One of the biggest challenges salespeople face is the "all or nothing" mentality: launching into grueling routines only to abandon them when life gets busy. Shane recommends starting manageably, commit to something you can achieve and build up gradually. Celebrate progress rather than striving for perfection. Schedule personal wellness appointments in your calendar before others fill it up, treating fitness as a non-negotiable high-value activity. Countering Burnout & Building Resilience Fatigue and burnout can derail effectiveness long before obvious symptoms arise. Shane discusses tracking hydration, meals, and exercise with apps, setting wellness KPIs, and recognizing early warning signs such of burnout. Social accountability can also provide vital support during lifestyle shifts. Physical training directly translates to sales resilience. Taking hits, managing discomfort, and working through adversity in the gym or on the mat builds the emotional muscle needed for high-pressure negotiations and setbacks. Daily, manageable discipline trumps intensity and sporadic efforts. Fitness isn't about perfection, it's about giving your future self a gift with every workout, run, or stretch.  Connect with Shane Gibson Shane Gibson on LinkedIn  Shane Gibson on Instagram The Professional Sales Academy Connect With Paul Watts  LinkedIn Twitter  Subscribe to SALES REINVENTED Audio Production and Show Notes by PODCAST FAST TRACK https://www.podcastfasttrack.com

Episode Notes & Key Takeaways

From football dreams to track passion, Bradley Moon's journey is one of faith, humility, and servant leadership. As founder of Sprint Free Training and co-creator of the upcoming Remotion app, Bradley's story shines a light on what happens when coaching goes beyond ego — focusing instead on relationships, respect, and doing it “for the kids.”In this inspiring season finale, Mike and Bradley unpack:

You launched the experiments. You spent the budget. And now leadership wants answers. And suddenly every QBR feels like a fire drill.This is Stage 2 of the revenue leader's transformation—the moment when activity is high, effort is real, but impact is frustratingly hard to prove. You're working harder than ever, yet you can't confidently tie what your team is doing to pipeline, revenue, or real ROI.This episode is part two of a five-part series exploring the journey B2B revenue leaders go through as they move from reactive execution to full revenue visibility and executive-level confidence. Each stage represents a breaking point, where leaders either confront the real problem or stay stuck explaining away the same issues quarter after quarter.In this episode, we unpack Stage 2: The QBR Fire Drill—the phase where credibility, confidence, and career momentum are quietly put at risk.You're likely in Stage 2 if you've ever said, “Board decks take days to build and still don't tell a clean story.”What We Cover in This Episode:Why QBRs become fire drills and what that reveals about your data foundationThe hidden cost of stitching together spreadsheets, slide decks, and conflicting reportsHow legacy GTM data models quietly destroy credibility at the executive levelThe most common data architecture flaw preventing revenue visibility (and why it's so easy to miss)The moment leaders realize they can't survive another quarter operating this wayWhat it takes to shift from lagging, backward-looking metrics to forward-looking visibilityThis stage forces a hard reckoning.Not just with your systems, but with your willingness to challenge the status quo, speak uncomfortable truths, and admit that the current way of measuring GTM is no longer good enough.
