Summary Have you ever wrapped up your workday thinking, “I've been busy all day, but I'm not sure I actually made anything better”? If so, you're not alone, and today's guests are here to help you break that cycle. In this episode, Andy talks with Don Kieffer and Nelson Repenning, co-authors of the new book There's Got to Be a Better Way. Don is a former Harley-Davidson executive who led during some of the company's most challenging years. Nelson is a professor at MIT Sloan who studies why well-intended management tools often fail in practice. Together, they're helping leaders rethink how work actually gets done. In the conversation, you'll learn why so many teams get stuck in firefighting mode, and why that's often not a people issue but a systems issue. You'll hear how to spot the “firefighter-arsonist” pattern, why problem-solving starts with problem-finding, and what it means to “design for discovery.” We also talk about Agile, Lean, invisible handoffs, and even how these ideas apply to family life. If you're looking for insights on how to make your team's work more effective, sustainable, and human-centered, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “Most performance problems are not people problems. They're design problems.” “You get what you design for. And most work isn't designed at all. It just kind of happens.” “Firefighting is not a character flaw. It's a predictable output of a broken system.” “If you don't make the work visible, you can't improve it.” “When no one owns the handoff, it's not really a handoff. It's a drop.” “Success should be easy. That doesn't mean the work isn't hard, but the path to doing it well should be clear.” “Discovery isn't luck. It's a design choice.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:49 Start of Interview 01:59 The Origin Story: How Don and Nelson Collaborated 07:36 Challenges in Implementing Business Tools 13:19 Dynamic Work Design vs. Traditional Methods 25:16 A Lesson from the Factory Floor 26:53 Identifying and Solving Problems in Teams 31:23 The Importance of Connecting the Human Chain 35:46 Making Work Visible: Strategies and Tools 40:34 Applying Work Strategies at Home 42:46 End of Interview 43:12 Andy Comments After the Interview 47:35 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about the book and their work at shiftgear.work/theres-got-to-be-a-better-way-book.

In This Episode When a small business crosses the startup threshold, growth brings complexity—and without structure, that complexity can stall progress. In this episode of the System Simplified podcast, host Adi Klevit sits down with Kelly Schaefbauer to explore the six managerial leadership practices that help small businesses build trust, clarity, and scalability. Kelly explains how his methodology begins with a “task inventory” to map out every function, department, and responsibility before assigning people to roles. From there, businesses can create precise role descriptions, document step-by-step processes, set measurable performance benchmarks, and establish targeted training plans. The conversation also dives into the final practice: continuous improvement. Kelly shares how regular reviews help identify constraints, refine processes, and raise performance across the board. Whether you're a founder looking to scale or a manager striving for team alignment, this episode delivers a blueprint for operational success rooted in systems and accountability.  

Somya Mehra: Learning to Spot Team Performance Warning Signs Early Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. At the start of Somya's Scrum Master journey, she joined a well-organized and balanced team. However, after two senior developers left the company, the team faced unexpected challenges. Despite hiring new people, velocity didn't improve. Somya discovered that a remaining senior developer had been stepping back and wasn't contributing actively to the team. Through conversations and giving specific tickets to the senior developer, Somya learned valuable lessons about early intervention and communication. Self-reflection Question: How quickly do you address performance concerns with team members, and what signals do you watch for to identify when someone might be disengaging?

Every leader knows the rush of validation when someone brings you a problem and you solve it on the spot. But Gary Cohen, founder of CO2 Coaching and author of Just Ask Leadership, learned that this habit can limit your team's potential and make you the organizational bottleneck. While growing his company from a $4,000 investment to 2,200 employees, he and his business partner became overwhelmed by constant questions. The solution wasn't giving faster answers—it was becoming question-askers instead of answer-givers.In interviews with over 100 exceptional leaders – from Fortune 500 executives to four-star generals – Cohen discovered they all had a moment where they shifted from being “the answer person” to “the question person.” For General Jack Chain, a promotion made him realize his role had fundamentally changed. For ConAgra's Mike Harper, moving from engineering to R&D forced him to lead experts whose knowledge far exceeded his own. These shifts inspired frameworks like the GPS model (Goal-Position-Strategy) for focused conversations and the PEAK model, which guides leaders through four questioning styles – Professor, Innovator, Judge, and Director – to spark breakthroughs.Cohen's most powerful insight is that most team members already know the answers. They don't need you to solve their problems—they need you to help them uncover solutions themselves. When they do, ownership skyrockets, and so does performance. The path to multiplying your leadership impact starts with changing your identity from “the teller” to “the asker.” Everything else follows from that transformation.

Discover how conducting a "gain audit" can transform your perspective, enhance motivation, and significantly boost team performance.

Conduct a Gain Audit: Implement a gain audit with your team to intentionally review accomplishments and foster a positive, appreciative environment. Lead by Example: Be aware that your team watches how you measure success – model a gain-driven mindset. Learn from Failures: Embrace acknowledging failures as valuable learning opportunities, rather than reasons for self-punishment. Shift Negative Mindsets: Actively work to shift negative mindsets within yourself and your team towards recognizing opportunities and strengths. Own Your Journey: Embrace the reality that leadership is about owning your journey, acknowledging every step of growth and learning. In This Episode, You'll Learn: How to apply a gain-driven mindset to enhance motivation and combat self-sabotage.

Anamaria shares her experience working with a platform implementation team that appeared engaged but was actually struggling in silence.

Bernard Agrest: Avoiding Hard Conversations—When High-Performing Agile Teams Self-Destruct Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Bernard describes how a high-performing, fun-loving team began to unravel when a new member joined who wasn't delivering on their commitments. Instead of addressing the performance issue directly, team members started picking up the slack, avoiding the difficult conversation that needed to happen. As morale dropped and people checked out, Bernard realized the team was paralyzed by fear of confrontation and assumptions that raising the issue would be ignored. This experience taught him that individual performance problems quickly become whole-team problems when left unaddressed, and that strong relationships require the courage to have honest, supportive conversations. Self-reflection Question: What difficult conversation are you avoiding on your team, and what assumptions might be preventing you from addressing it? Featured Book of the Week: The 6 Types of Working Genius by Patrick Lencioni Bernard recommends The 6 Types of Working Genius by Patrick Lencioni because it helps leaders understand that everyone has specific "genius" areas in different phases of work. When people work outside their natural genius zones, they feel unfulfilled and frustrated. This framework has been invaluable for Bernard in understanding team dynamics—why some teams click naturally while others struggle. By recognizing each person's working genius, leaders can better position team members for success and create more effective, satisfied teams. [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

This one hit deep. I'm talking to a founder who's done everything “right.” Built the business. Achieved success. Carried the weight. But now… she's just tired. Tired of running, of holding it all together, of pretending she still wants what she once did. She thought we'd be talking about planning and priorities. Instead, we had one of the most honest conversations I've ever had with a woman who's quietly—and bravely—acknowledging that her current chapter is over. In this episode, we talk about: The invisible weight of being everyone's go-to What it means when your ambition fades—but your worth hasn't Why admitting you're done is the first brave step toward your next beautiful beginning This is Beyond the CEO work in real time.

Toxic culture doesn't always show up with warning signs—it can creep in slowly, through unchecked gossip, lack of accountability, or subtle disrespect. Over time, even high-performing teams start to fray at the edges, with morale dropping and turnover quietly rising. The energy that once drove growth gets replaced with tension and mistrust, and suddenly the business feels heavy. It's not always about strategy or systems—sometimes it's the atmosphere that's quietly pulling everything apart. Debbie Longo is a corporate behavior coach with over two decades of experience helping leaders fix toxic work environments. She focuses on identifying and removing negative behaviors that quietly erode team morale and productivity. Toda, Debbie discusses how unchecked attitudes spread and hurt performance across entire organizations. She stresses that ignoring these patterns can kill profits and even sink a business. Her strategies are direct, practical, and built for real workplace results. Stay tuned!

How do you grab the attention of the smartest person in the room and introduce an idea that could fundamentally change their approach to leadership? In this insightful episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Gina Catalano, President of Central Forza Group and author of The Leadership Wake Up Call, joins Bill Sherman to discuss her pioneering work in developing emotional intelligence (EQ) for surgeon leaders—a skill set largely overlooked in traditional medical training. Gina shares how her journey from managing medical device teams in Fortune 500 healthcare organizations led her to recognize a critical gap: Surgeons possess extraordinary technical skills but often lack training in emotional intelligence. Her unique insight is transforming how surgeons engage with patients, teams, and even mitigate malpractice risks. She explains the compelling data behind EQ's impact, highlighting research correlating higher EQ among surgeons with lower malpractice claims. Gina also details her groundbreaking project with Duke University's general surgery residency, where she's building a curriculum to instill essential EQ skills early in surgical training. Listeners will learn how Gina's personal experiences and keen observations evolved into a compelling speaking and writing career, all centered around equipping elite performers with the "power skills" needed for true leadership success. This episode isn't just about developing better surgeon leaders—it's about creating profound, measurable changes that enhance patient care and team performance.   Three Key Takeaways: • Emotional intelligence is critical for elite performance — Especially in high-pressure fields like surgery, EQ impacts malpractice rates, team dynamics, and patient outcomes. • Thought leadership bridges knowledge gaps — Introducing EQ to surgeon leaders requires translating soft skills into evidence-based, practical tools that resonate with data-driven professionals. • Early intervention creates lasting change — Embedding emotional intelligence training into medical residency programs can shape more effective leaders from the start. If this episode got you thinking about the power of emotional intelligence in high-performance environments, you'll want to keep going with our conversation with David Wood: The Effects of Soft Skills in Thought Leadership. Both episodes tackle a common challenge—how to introduce and scale “soft skills” like EQ in expert-driven fields where they're often undervalued. Gina Catalano and David Wood each show that these so-called soft skills are actually mission-critical for leadership, trust-building, and long-term success. Listen now and discover how soft skills can create hard results.

Rethinking Team Performance in a 2-Day Workweek WorldIn this thought-provoking episode of Teamwork, a Better Way, Christian Napier and Spencer Horn unpack one of the most talked-about ideas of the year: Bill Gates' prediction that AI could soon enable a 2- or 3-day workweek.Sounds like a dream, right? Maybe. But psychologists—and seasoned team facilitators like Christian and Spencer—see a deeper truth: we don't just work for income, we work for meaning.Together, we explore the paradox of progress: as AI removes the need for effort, how do we protect what gives work its value—growth, challenge, and human connection? How do leaders and teams adapt to a future where technology handles the heavy lifting, but people still crave purpose?We dive into the research behind the “effort paradox,” discuss how to lead teams in a world of increasing automation and reflect on what makes work… worth doing.Transcript: https://share.transistor.fm/s/aef02eaf/transcript.txt

Culture is often touted as a core driver of organizational success, yet few leaders truly grasp how it is shaped—not by slogans or aspirational values on posters, but by the subtle signals of what is tolerated every single day. Allowing destructive behaviors, even passively, sends a clear message to your team about what is truly acceptable, gradually eroding performance and morale from within. The "silent killers" of team performance don't announce themselves; rather, they creep in quietly, undermining collaboration, excellence, and engagement. This episode shines a spotlight on three such destructive yet easily overlooked threats: mediocrity, passive resistance, and poor communication. Understanding and proactively confronting these factors is essential for anyone seeking to build a high-performing, resilient culture. Leaders who are willing to audit their own tolerance levels, set clear standards, and address dysfunction early position their teams—and themselves—for sustainable success.
