These might become my new spirit animals. Marshall Rosenberg picked the giraffe to represent Nonviolent Communication because it’s the land animal with the biggest heart. Can’t wait to see these come out of the kiln. #ColorMeMine #VacationActivity

I have updated my LinkedIn tagline because I’m envious of the uniqueness that some people and brands bring to their names/titles (looking at you Häagen-Dazs). Using non-English ligatures and Umlaut marks seems to be all the rage, and has been for a long time. Plus, “Agile” is so overused, I think we need a huge shift to something that many people can recognize but not pronounce, nor type on their keyboard. So I am now an Ægile Coäch.
Yes, this is a sarcastic post. And I will without a doubt change my mind in a day or two.

I’ve wanted to illustrate this idea from Joshua Kerievsky for a while. Here it is. I don’t remember anymore when I first saw it, but the time stamp on a file I saved says March 2023.

When you call a meeting of managers together on some issue, first ask yourselves in the meeting “Are we here to find fault with someone (or a group of someones) or are we here to help make the system better in relation to the issue?” That’s leadership in human systems.

I posit to you: the most important part of coaching (in whatever flavor) is the safe facilitation of sensemaking (in whatever holon).

For the first time in a long time I’m experiencing what it’s like to feel “behind” on something. I’m feeling like I’m jogging next to a train track with a train approaching, and knowing I need to get into the train. I’m speeding up my jog to a run in the hope that I’ll be able to jump onto the caboose before the train is going too fast for me to hop on.
I wonder if this is how software development team members sometimes feel when agile transformations are underfoot and they had no say in that.

Strive to become as much of a non-judgmental deep listener as you can, and see how things change around you.

If you list yourself on LinkedIn as a “fractional” XYZ, does that mean you don’t do all of XYZ, unlike a “full stack” XYZ who supposedly does it all?

What are some of the big ideas that have changed how you see the world? Who brought them into the world? Who brought them to you? Do you have a difference in appreciation for the former and the latter?

I love how more and more streaming services are introducing plans that force you to pay extra to remove ads. It’s basically admitting that ads are mostly nuisance, and it finally gives people an option to express that notion via their wallets.
