Podcasts about sprints

Everyone loves free stuff, but authors need to pay the bills. Can you make money by giving your work away, and if so, how do you choose what to distribute for free? What tools and metrics can you use to show a publisher or business partner that the work that you give away for free is driving sales? The panelists were Brenda Clough, Leonardo (Leo) Espinoza Benavides, Jean Marie Ward, and Donald Ekpeki, with Angela Yuriko Smith as moderator.

In dieser Episode spricht Erik Siekmann mit Simon Knittel von Jung von Matt Start über die radikale Verschlankung von Agenturprozessen und den gezielten Einsatz von Kommunikation zur Lösung gesellschaftlicher Probleme. Simon erklärt, warum klassische, monatelange Strategieprozesse für agile Unternehmen unbrauchbar sind und warum erfolgreiche Markenarbeit heute eine direkte C-Level-Beteiligung in ultrakurzen Sprints erfordert. Ein absolutes Highlight der Folge ist der tiefe Einblick in das vielfach ausgezeichnete Pro-Bono-Projekt „Recht gegen Rechts“: Erfahre, wie das Team durch die kreative Besetzung von Markenrechten (wie „VTR LND“) rechtsextremen Online-Handel blockiert, wie aus einem juristischen Eilverfahren gegen einen bekannten Neonazi ein historischer Sieg vor dem Oberlandesgericht wurde und wie die Plattform druck18.com über 30 NGOs im Kampf gegen den Hass vereint. Zudem gibt Simon einen exklusiven Ausblick auf seinen im Juli startenden Podcast „Brandbeschleuniger“. Über Simon Knittel: Simon Knittel ist einer der kreativen Köpfe hinter Jung von Matt Start, einer Unit der renommierten Agenturgruppe, die Markenprozesse für Startups und etablierte Corporates radikal vereinfacht und beschleunigt. Der gebürtige Bayer und Wahl-Berliner gilt in der Branche als krisenresistenter Vordenker, der die Grenzen klassischer Werbung aufbricht. Neben seiner kommerziellen Markenarbeit erlangte er vor allem durch seine bahnbrechenden, preisgekrönten Initiativen wie „Recht gegen Rechts“ und „Fashion Against Fascism“ (in Kooperation mit Zalando und Spreadshirt) internationale Aufmerksamkeit. Sein Ansatz zeigt eindrucksvoll, wie intelligente Kommunikation, strategischer Markenaufbau und deutsches Markenrecht als hocheffiziente Hebel eingesetzt werden können, um echten gesellschaftlichen Impact zu generieren.

Owen Ansah hat Geschichte geschrieben. 9,98 Sekunden über 100 Meter. Er ist der einzige Deutsche, der je unter die Zehn-Sekunden-Marke gelaufen ist. Und sein Trainer Sebastian Bayer hat das Ganze von der Couch aus verfolgt – frisch operiert, Schulter kaputt.In dieser Folge spricht Sebastian Bayer über den Lauf in Regensburg, über den langen Weg dahin – und warum er Owen und seine Athleten in den ersten Jahren absichtlich ausgebremst hat. Denn seine These ist eindeutig: Wer zu früh zu spezifisch trainiert, macht aus einem möglichen 10,05-Athleten einen 10,35-Athleten – für immer.Außerdem geht es um die Frage, die jeder Leistungssportler kennt: Was passiert im Kopf, wenn man an eine Schallmauer stößt?Sebastian Bayer ist ehemaliger Europameister im Weitsprung, mehrfacher Deutscher Meister und heute einer der gefragtesten Sprintcoaches in Deutschland. Er trainiert am Stützpunkt Mannheim und hat mit Owen Ansah und Lucas Ansah-Peprah die zwei schnellsten Sprinter der deutschen Geschichte aufgebaut.In dieser Folge: Wie Sebastian den 9,98-Lauf in Regensburg erlebt hat – und was die Daten sagen. Warum Griffkraft, Sprünge und Hütchenläufe wichtiger sind als 1080-Sprints. Fundament-Metapher: Kein Mensch redet beim Hausbau über das Velux-Fenster, wenn das Fundament noch nicht gegossen ist. Was 99 Prozent Wille mit einem Prozent Loslassen zu tun hat. Und warum Sebastian sagt, er selbst hat das damals nicht gut hinbekommen.Schneller auf den ersten Metern — das Rock'n'Roll-ModellDu trainierst, gibst alles — aber auf den ersten Metern kommst du nicht voran? Das ist manchmal kein Kraft- oder Konditionsproblem. Es ist ein Mechanikproblem.Nach dem Konzept von Dr. Tobias Alt habe ich Buch und Onlinekurs entwickelt: das Rock'n'Roll-Modell für effizientere Beschleunigung. Für Sprinter, Fußballer, Basketballer, Handballer.Launch kommt bald — trag dich jetzt in die Warteliste ein und sichere dir den günstigsten Preis:

Ce jeudi dans #LeDriveRTL2, Margaux Lassalle met le cap sur la mythique "Île d'Émeraude" pour une nouvelle escale de son "Rock Trip" : l'Irlande ! Entre ses paysages verdoyants, ses falaises spectaculaires, sa ferveur inégalable pour le rugby et l'ambiance chaleureuse de ses pubs typiques (où l'on savoure une Guinness en feuilletant du Oscar Wilde), ce pays possède une âme véritablement unique. Mais l'Irlande est aussi et surtout une terre sainte pour le rock ! Si le groupe folk Kingfishr y cartonne actuellement, le pays a vu naître des légendes absolues qui ont conquis le monde entier. Margaux nous retrace cette histoire prestigieuse : des immenses U2 et The Cranberries aux pionniers hard rock de Thin Lizzy, en passant par le métissage pop et musiques traditionnelles de The Corrs ou les tubes de The Script. L'exploration se poursuit avec la power pop des années 90 d'Ash, l'héritage assuré par la nouvelle génération avec Inhaler, et la scène punk et alternative actuelle portée par The Murder Capital ou l'énergie brute de Sprints. Pour clore cette vibrante virée irlandaise, découvrez à la toute fin de la chronique le titre "Starbuster" de Fontaines D.C. Véritable sensation post-punk et probablement le groupe irlandais le plus influent de la décennie, ils nous livrent ici un morceau obsédant, à écouter en intégralité ! Hébergé par Audiomeans.

This Day in Legal History: The Burning of the GaspeeOn this day in 1772, a Royal Navy revenue schooner called HMS Gaspee, captained by a notably overzealous Lieutenant William Duddington, ran aground in shallow water in Narragansett Bay while chasing a Rhode Island packet boat called the Hannah. Within hours of the grounding, roughly sixty Providence merchants, sailors, and “Sons of Liberty” — led by John Brown, one of the wealthiest men in the colony — rowed out under cover of darkness in eight longboats, boarded the Gaspee, shot Duddington, and burned the ship to the waterline. The legal significance lies in what came next. The Crown convened a Royal Commission of Inquiry with authority to ship the perpetrators across the Atlantic for trial in England, bypassing colonial juries entirely, a procedural maneuver that the colonies read as a direct attack on the right to jury trial in the vicinage.The Virginia House of Burgesses responded in March 1773 by forming the first Committee of Correspondence, a sustained intercolonial communication network that became, two years later, the institutional skeleton of the Continental Congress. The Gaspee Affair never produced a single prosecution — the commission could not get the colonial governor or the Rhode Island courts to cooperate, and witness testimony evaporated — but it produced something more durable: the colonial conviction that the Crown's willingness to detour around local juries was itself a constitutional grievance worth organizing against. The right-to-jury-in-the-vicinage point that Madison wrote into the Sixth Amendment seventeen years later is, in a real sense, the Gaspee Affair's longest-lived legacy.The Supreme Court on Monday granted, vacated, and remanded the D.C. Circuit's decision in American Gas Association v. Department of Energy, sending the long-disputed Biden-era Department of Energy efficiency rule on non-condensing residential gas furnaces and commercial water heaters back to the D.C. Circuit “for further consideration in light of the position asserted by the Solicitor General.” That last phrase is the operative one. The new Solicitor General, on behalf of the second Trump administration's DOE, told the Court in late April that the prior administration's reading of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act was, in DOE's current view, wrong, and that the rule effectively bans non-condensing units that millions of homes and small commercial properties were built around. A confessed-error from a new administration doesn't automatically win a case, but the procedural vehicle — a grant-vacate-remand, or “GVR” — is the Court's standard way of saying “go look at this again with the new posture in mind” without resolving the merits itself.The trade-group plaintiffs, led by the American Gas Association and the American Public Gas Association, framed the rule from the start as a de facto product ban dressed up as efficiency standards. The environmental and consumer groups that intervened to defend the rule will get another bite at the apple on remand, but their position is harder when their own client agency has switched sides. Watch the D.C. Circuit's case calendar over the next few weeks for an expedited briefing schedule.Supreme Court Vacates Decision Outlawing Gas Stoves, Water Heaters | NewsBustersSCOTUSblog on Monday published a careful overview of an increasingly organized litigation campaign to ask the Supreme Court to overrule Obergefell v. Hodges, the 2015 decision recognizing a constitutional right to same-sex marriage. The campaign now includes Liberty Counsel, MassResistance, and the Southern Baptist Convention, which last year voted overwhelmingly to urge the Court to reverse the decision. The underlying ground for the push is partly the Court's reasoning in Dobbs four years ago, which gave conservative litigants a road map for unwinding substantive due process precedents, and partly the gradual erosion of public-opinion support for same-sex marriage in one slice of the polling, with Republican support falling from 55 percent in 2022 to 37 percent now. The legal headcount at the Court is, however, the part of the story that is not yet there.Only Justice Thomas has been a consistent vote to revisit Obergefell, having said so in his Dobbs concurrence. Justice Alito, despite being one of Obergefell's original dissenters, recently emphasized in a public speech that he is not suggesting the case should be overruled, citing stare decisis. Justice Gorsuch's dissent in 303 Creative seems to concede that Obergefell is good law and tries instead to carve out specific exceptions to it. None of which is a reason for litigants on the marriage-equality side to relax. The path Dobbs opened up is wider than any single justice's current voting pattern, and the campaign is plainly playing a long game.The next round of test cases on standing and ripeness will start to surface in the lower courts in the next term or two — that is when the campaign's seriousness becomes measurable.The campaign to overrule Obergefell | SCOTUSblogThe third and most constitutionally significant story of the day is one we've been watching: the litigation over President Trump's $400 million ballroom — built on the site of the demolished East Wing — is on track to land in front of the Supreme Court, SCOTUSblog reported Monday. The D.C. Circuit panel that heard the case for more than two hours in late April has not yet ruled, but the questioning made clear that a more substantial opinion is coming and that an appeal to the Court is the likely next stop regardless of which side wins. The legal question is unusually fundamental. The plaintiff, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, argues that the President has no “free-floating” power to construct major federal buildings without an appropriation from Congress, and that the Antideficiency Act and the Public Buildings Act both require the kind of statutory authorization the East Wing ballroom never received.The administration's response, delivered in a tone that several court-watchers described as unusually defiant, has essentially been that construction has “gone too far to be stopped” and that the courts have no role in second-guessing a presidential building decision once the steel is up. The structural separation-of-powers questions here — what does the Appropriations Clause actually constrain, and can a federal court enjoin a President from continuing to build something that is partially constructed — are large enough that the Supreme Court will almost certainly want to take the case if it reaches the high court. Construction, meanwhile, continues. The most likely Supreme Court resolution is a narrow opinion on standing or remedies, with the broader Appropriations Clause questions deferred for another day. We will see.White House ballroom battle may soon arrive at the Supreme Court | SCOTUSblogIn my Bloomberg Tax column this week, I argue that the SALT deduction cap's biggest problem is not that it is unconstitutional, but that it is badly designed. The latest failed challenge, Sims v. United States, involved two New Jersey taxpayers who claimed the cap violated the 10th Amendment, the 16th Amendment, and broader federalism principles. The federal district court rejected those arguments, finding that Congress has broad authority to tax income and decide which deductions are allowed, limited, or denied. My point is that opponents of the SALT cap should stop looking for constitutional defects that courts are unlikely to find and instead focus on forcing Congress to fix the policy it created.I explain that the cap has always been politically loaded: supporters see it as a needed limit on a deduction that benefits many high-income taxpayers in high-tax states, while critics see it as a targeted attack on those states. But unfair or politically motivated tax policy is not automatically unconstitutional. The real weakness, I argue, is the cap's uneven design, especially the pass-through entity tax workaround. Many business owners can effectively get around the cap when state taxes are paid at the entity level, while wage earners, sole proprietors, and many individual taxpayers remain stuck behind it.That creates a serious mismatch: two taxpayers can live in the same state, earn similar income, and face similar state tax burdens, but receive different federal treatment depending on whether one has the right business structure. I argue that this kind of selective relief may be a more promising target for a narrower administrative or legal challenge than another broad constitutional attack on Congress's taxing power. Congress partly recognized the problem when it raised the cap from $10,000 to $40,000, but I note that the fix is temporary, only lightly indexed, and still leaves major structural problems in place. The marriage penalty remains especially glaring because married couples filing jointly do not receive double the cap available to similarly situated unmarried taxpayers.I also criticize the phaseout design because it can create cliffs or marginal-rate spikes that reward tax gamesmanship rather than sound policy. A better fix, in my view, would make the higher cap permanent, index it meaningfully, eliminate the marriage penalty, smooth out the phaseout, and require Treasury to rationalize the treatment of pass-through entity taxes. The lesson from Sims is that courts may uphold the SALT cap, but that does not make it good tax policy. If the cap is unfair, incoherent, or selectively porous, Congress owns that problem.SALT Deduction Cap Falls Short in Design, Not Constitutionality This is a public episode.

The reluctant hero is a solid staple of fiction and comic books. How do you write the heroes who never wanted to be, what motivates them, how to maintain their reluctance throughout a whole series, and how to make them relatable to readers. =============================== If you find my content of value, please share it with your friends!

https://teachhoops.com/ In coaching, time is the only resource that is truly finite. We often complain that we don't have enough hours in the gym, but the reality is that most programs "leak" 15–20 minutes every day through slow transitions, long explanations, and standing in lines. This "5-Minute Clinic" is designed to audit your practice efficiency and sky-rocket your Rep Density. If your players aren't getting a touch or making a decision every 6–10 seconds, you aren't coaching a basketball team; you're managing a queue. To improve, players need "Volume with Intent." We calculate Rep Density as the ratio of meaningful actions to the total time spent in the drill: If you have 15 players and only one ball in a "Full Court Layup" line, your Rep Density is near zero. To fix this, you must "Multi-Ball" your drills. Every drill should involve at least 3–4 balls moving simultaneously, forcing every player to be mentally "loaded" and physically active. The greatest waste of time in a high school gym is the "walk" from one end of the floor to the other between drills. We establish the "Standard of 30." From the moment the whistle blows to end a shooting segment, the team has exactly 30 seconds to get a drink and be in their spots for the next defensive shell. The Consequence: If the standard isn't met, the "clock" doesn't start on the next drill, but the physical work does. The Result: You "find" an extra two weeks of practice time over the course of a season simply by eliminating the "muck and grind" of slow transitions. Stop stopping the drill. Every time you blow the whistle to correct one player, the other 11 players stop learning. Instead, practice "Drive-By Coaching." Deliver your 5-word corrections to individual players as they run past you. "Finish on two feet!" "High hands on the closeout!" "Talk the screen!" Keep the motor of the practice running. Use the "natural breaks" (water, free throws) to address the whole group. Coach's Note: "Efficiency isn't about rushing; it's about eliminating the unnecessary. If the ball isn't bouncing or feet aren't moving, no one is getting better."

https://teachhoops.com/ The "Open Gym" is a double-edged sword in any basketball program. To the casual observer, it's a sign of a "gym rat" culture—players taking initiative and putting in extra reps without a coach standing over them. However, if left unchecked, the unstructured open gym can become a breeding ground for the very habits that lose games in February: lazy transition defense, "hero-ball" shot selection, and a total lack of non-verbal communication. In this session, we break down how to move from "just playing" to "Purposeful Scrimmaging." The goal isn't to remove the fun; it's to ensure that the fun is aligned with the Standard of Excellence your program requires. When players play without constraints, they naturally gravitate toward the path of least resistance. You'll see players jogging back on defense, settling for contested "step-back" threes, and ignoring the "extra pass." This creates a "False Confidence"—players think they are getting better because they are scoring, but they are actually reinforcing a low-IQ style of play that won't survive a disciplined 2-3 zone or a physical man-to-man defense. As a leader, you must establish that the "Coach's Shadow" is always in the gym. Even when you aren't there, the Energy Givers in your senior class must be the ones enforcing the "Next Play" speed and defensive intensity. The 3v3 Shift: Instead of a stagnant 5v5 game, encourage more 3v3. This increases Rep Density and forces every player to be involved in every action. There is nowhere to "hide" in 3v3; you have to defend, rebound, and move off the ball. Creative Scoring Constraints: Incentivize the behaviors you want to see. Make a "weak-hand layup" worth 3 points, or make a "paint-touch three" worth 4 points. By changing the math of the game, you force players to hunt for High-Value Shots ($eFG%$) rather than settling for mid-range jumpers. Validation Free Throws: Every game-winning bucket must be "validated" by a free throw. If the player misses, the basket doesn't count and the defense gets the ball. This injects Late-Game Pressure into an otherwise casual environment and reinforces the importance of the "boring" fundamentals. Coach's Note: "You don't get the team you coach; you get the team you tolerate. If you tolerate lazy habits in July, don't be surprised when they show up in the regional finals. Your open gym should be a laboratory for your program's DNA."

10 Shocking Habits to Reset Your Health By Dennis J. Henson Here is a scripted Q&A session designed for our program. The Host (you) plays the role of the ‘Questioning Sceptic' who loves comfort, setting the Guest (me) up to deliver the hard truths. Host:  "We spend our whole lives seeking comfort—climate control, soft chairs, fast food. But what if the secret to living longer is actually making yourself uncomfortable... just for a few minutes every day?" Host: "Our returning guest today is Dennis Henson. Now Dennis, you sent over a list of topics that frankly looks… terrifying. You're saying that 'Comfort is the enemy of health.' What do you mean by that?" Guest: "Exactly that. We spend our lives seeking relaxation, climate control, soft chairs, and fast food. But biologically, to be healthier and live longer, you have to shock your systems. It's called ‘Hormesis'. Introducing short, sharp stressors, causes your body to over-compensate, becoming stronger and healthier." But let's pause here for a moment. I need to interject a voice of reason. When we talk about 'shocking' your systems, we aren't playing games. These are real physical stressors. Host: Yes! If you have a heart condition, high blood pressure, or any underlying health issue, some of this could be too much for you to handle. We want you to be healthy, not in the hospital. So, before you try any of these techniques, please consult your physician. Now that that's out of the way, let's dive into today's topic. Number one is something I avoid at all costs. You want us to take Cold Showers Or to bath in ice water.?!" Guest: "Yes! Specifically, for a ‘Thermal Shock'. This triggers 'Cold Shock Proteins' and a massive dopamine spike. It wakes your immune system and forces your vascular system to contract, essentially acting like a booster for your blood." Host: "Brrr. Alright, well number two is the opposite. You listed Sauna. Isn't that mainly for relaxing?" Guest: "Well not just relaxing. It Creates a ‘Heat Shock' Mimicking a fever, the body's natural way of killing invaders. This ‘Heat Shock' acts like a 'cleanup crew,' by repairing damaged DNA and fixing impaired proteins." It also triggers a profound physical purge. The deep, profuse sweating literally flushes toxins and heavy metals out through your pores, detoxifying your body from the inside out. Host: "Okay, hot and cold. Got it. Now, number three is about food. You're suggesting we stop eating?" Guest: Yes! But not all together, only for short windows of time. This is called ‘Metabolic Shock'. Intermittent Fasting convinces your body - food is scarce, triggering Autophagy, where your body devours its own damaged cells, leaving behind only the strong ones." Host: "That sounds intense. But this next one sounds a little weird... you think we should stop breathing?" Guest: Not all together! "It's called ‘Oxygen Shock' - Intermittent Hypoxia. You do this by... taking deep, rhythmic breaths to lower carbon dioxide, then exhaling fully and holding that 'empty' state until the urge to breathe becomes intense. The body responds to this temporary air starvation by producing more red blood cells and improving your tolerance to CO2, making energy delivery much more efficient." Host: "Okay - that makes sense. Number five is exercising, but you specify 'High Intensity.' Can't we just jog?" Guest: "You could-- but you really need an ‘Energy Shock'. Sprints or ‘High-Intensity--Interval Training' pushes your heart rate to its capacity. This shocks your mitochondria—your energy power plants— into growing stronger and multiplying to handle the demand. A slow jog doesn't do that."

Who can beat the world-record holder for the half-marathon? A robot. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.

The “Agile” Team That Was Actually Just Doing Waterfall in SprintsEvery two weeks, they ran a sprint review. The stakeholders attended. The demos were polished. The velocity charts trended in the right direction. And nothing significant ever changed based on what anyone said in that room.That's not agile. That's theater with a two-week rhythm.I've coached enough product teams to know that the mimicry of processes is one of the most expensive habits in software development. It looks like agility from the outside. It absorbs all the cost — the ceremonies, the tooling, the vocabulary; but delivers almost none of the benefit. Teams often know this, but feel powerless to speak up because the ceremonies themselves have become the “proof” of professionalism.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/

Most Agile coaches build their careers inside large organizations — but what happens when a new opportunity calls from an unexpected direction? Scrum.org CEO, Dave West, sits down with Marina Alex, an AI & modern management expert and Founder of The SWAY Academy, who answered that call. After the enterprise market shifted in 2022, Marina pivoted her practice toward small and medium-sized businesses in Knoxville, Tennessee — and discovered what she describes as a blue ocean: many companies that have never heard of a Sprint, but are ready for one.Along the way, Marina found that AI has become a natural entry point into these conversations. With most small businesses neither tech-heavy nor equipped with an IT department, the excitement and anxiety around AI opens the door to deeper work around team culture, structure, and customer focus. Rather than leading with frameworks, she leads with outcomes — helping business owners understand that strong teams and clear processes are what make any new technology actually stick.Marina walks Dave through the mindset shifts, networking strategies, and practical adaptations — from one-week Sprints to sticky-note Retrospectives — that have allowed her to build a thriving practice doing work she loves, serving the local business communities that need her most.Free Guide from Sway Systems with tips to find new clientsConnect with Marina

Text your thoughts and questions!We've been conditioned to think that more time equals more output. This might make sense on the surface, but in reality, this burnout-inducing approach degrades your performance and increases your stress rather than improving your results. This week, episode 307 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about why work sprints are better than marathons!In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm sharing a work sprint method that allows you to stop working against your neurology and start producing higher-quality work in less time. Key Takeaways:Science shows that working in focused, fully committed bursts followed by deliberate recovery periods improves concentration, decision-making, and the overall quality of your output.Just like in HIIT fitness, recovery in productivity isn't a "reward" you haven't earned. By adopting "structured sprints" based on Agile methodology, you prioritize efficiency and continuous improvement over rigid, undefined work periods.The Pomodoro Technique is a simple way to start sprinting. Work for 25 minutes with full focus, followed by a 5-minute break, to train your brain to expect both focus and rest.Identify your natural "window of peak cognitive performance" during the day and protect that time specifically for your high-intensity work sprints.The secret to sustainable productivity isn't finding more hours in the day; it's honoring the energy you have within those hours. My invitation to you today is simple: Pick one task, set one timer, and try just one sprint. Thank you for listening!

Predictability Is My North StarVelocity said “healthy.”The system said “unhealthy.”I chose to trust the system.For six straight Sprints, the velocity chart looked great. Every Sprint, the team hit the number. Every review, the dashboard showed green.And yet… the last couple of Sprints felt bad.Work thrashed. Priorities shifted. Unplanned items kept sneaking in. The team was exhausted, and I needed a way to explain why the system felt chaotic when the metric insisted everything was fine.That was the moment I realized velocity wasn't telling me the truth. I needed a better way to understand what was happening. I needed a way to see what went wrong and account for the change.That's when Predictability Became My North Star.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/

The Most Underrated Advantage of Short Sprints - Mike CohnA recent Gallup survey found that 80% of employees who received meaningful feedback in the past week are engaged at work.For comparison, Gallup's overall engagement numbers are often around 30%.That's a striking gap.It suggests something many leaders overlook: performance may depend less on changing team structure and more on improving feedback inside the structure you already have.When results lag, organizations often reach for the org chart. They reorganize teams, redraw reporting lines, or debate how many teams a coach or Scrum Master should work with.Sometimes those changes help. But they rarely go far if feedback is infrequent, unclear, or missing altogether.Feedback isn't just a management technique. It's a strategic advantage.And agile teams have been building that advantage into the way they work for years. When people talk about one- or two-week sprints, they usually focus on speed. “We need to move faster.”“We need more output.”“We need shorter release cycles.”But speed isn't the real advantage of short sprints.The advantage is shortening the time between action and learning.A sprint isn't a delivery cycle. It's a feedback cycle.Each sprint gives a team a natural point to stop and ask: Did we build the right thing?Did we misunderstand the need?Are we still aligned with stakeholders?Are we learning what we hoped to learn?The shorter the sprint, the shorter the gap between assumption and validation.That's not about velocity.

Neuroscientist Dr. Tommy Wood breaks down what it actually takes to keep your brain sharp as you age. Drawing from his new book The Stimulated Mind, Tommy makes the case that movement is non-negotiable for brain health — and that even small amounts make a meaningful difference. From walking and resistance training to dancing and pickleball, different types of exercise protect different parts of the brain in ways that compound over time. The bottom line? You don't need a perfect plan. You just need to start.

In this interview, I'm bringing Jelena to the stage! Jelena is one of my New Sound and Beyond students from Serbia, who now lives in the US. When she arrived, she could barely leave her apartment. She avoided grocery stores, doctor's appointments, and meetings with her supervisor. Today? She's a research fellow, teaches salsa in English, and has a thriving social life she once thought to be impossible. In this conversation, she shares: What it really felt like to be isolated and dependent on her husband's English The turning point that proved she could communicate outside a "safe environment" Why pronunciation work was the key that unlocked her confidence How mindset shifts that changed everything What she'd recommend to anyone stuck in the same loop she was in This is the kind of conversation I love having: a public catch-up with a former student who is living proof that English doesn't have to be an obstacle to the life you want.

https://teachhoops.com/ Toughness in basketball is often misunderstood as "aggression" or "trash-talking," but true program toughness is the ability to execute the next right thing, regardless of the circumstances. It is a "quiet" quality found in the player who sprints to the floor for a loose ball, the guard who stays in a stance for 30 seconds of a defensive possession, and the teammate who is the first to high-five a peer after a mistake. To build a tougher team, you must move from "talking about it" to "training it." Toughness is a perishable skill that must be rehearsed daily in your practice environment. If you don't demand a "box-out" on every single shot in November, you shouldn't be surprised when your team "shrinks" during a physical postseason game in March. The most effective way to build toughness is through "Conditioning with a Purpose." Traditional "suicides" or "liners" build aerobic capacity, but they rarely build "Competitive Grit." Instead, utilize "Pressure-Cooker Drills" where the scoreboard dictates the level of fatigue. For example, run a "Perfect Shell" drill where the defense must get three consecutive stops without a single technical error (missed rotation, "lazy" closeout, or failure to talk). If they fail, the count resets to zero. This "mental weight-lifting" teaches players that "tired" is just a feeling, not a fact. By making the "standard" of the drill higher than the "stress" of the game, you ensure that your athletes are physically and psychologically prepared for the most chaotic moments of the season. Finally, you must reward the "Invisible Wins." Players will always value what the coach "celebrates." If you only celebrate scoring, your team will only focus on offense. To build a tough culture, you must have a "Toughness Board" in the locker room that tracks "Zero-Talent" metrics: deflections, floor dives, charges taken, and "Sprints to the Corner." Use your TeachHoops member calls to "audit" your feedback loop: are you calling out the player who didn't get back in transition, or are you just "moving on" to the next play? By making toughness a non-negotiable requirement for playing time, you create a "self-policing" locker room where the players hold each other to a championship standard.

The Most Underrated Advantage of Short Sprints - Mike CohnA recent Gallup survey found that 80% of employees who received meaningful feedback in the past week are engaged at work.For comparison, Gallup's overall engagement numbers are often around 30%.That's a striking gap.It suggests something many leaders overlook: performance may depend less on changing team structure and more on improving feedback inside the structure you already have.When results lag, organizations often reach for the org chart. They reorganize teams, redraw reporting lines, or debate how many teams a coach or Scrum Master should work with.Sometimes those changes help. But they rarely go far if feedback is infrequent, unclear, or missing altogether.Feedback isn't just a management technique. It's a strategic advantage.And agile teams have been building that advantage into the way they work for years. When people talk about one- or two-week sprints, they usually focus on speed. “We need to move faster.”“We need more output.”“We need shorter release cycles.”But speed isn't the real advantage of short sprints.The advantage is shortening the time between action and learning.A sprint isn't a delivery cycle.
