Earth Day 2026 - The Boy and the Snakes

2026/04/22

Earth Day 2026 - The Boy and the SnakesIn 1979, after a massive flood hit the region of Assam, a 16-year-old Jadav was walking along the banks of the Brahmaputra River. He came across a sight that broke his heart: hundreds of snakes had been washed up onto a barren, treeless sandbar. With no shade to protect them and no forest to hide in, the snakes had died from the blistering heat.Jadav sat down and wept over their bodies. He realized that without trees, all living things—including humans—would

I Was Asked to Fire One-Third of the Company, Here’s What That Taught Me About Leadership and CoachingI still remember the silence in the room.My CEO had just finished speaking. The words were simple, almost clinical: “We need to reduce headcount by one-third.”No drama. No hesitation. Just a decision.And suddenly, I wasn’t just the Head of HR anymore.I was the person who would carry out one of the most painful transformations a company can go through.That day, I realized something

The real reasons top performers quit, and what managers can do about itYou hired the best people on your team. They deliver results, take initiative, and raise the bar for everyone around them. And then, one day, they hand in their resignation.You run through the usual explanations — better pay, a bigger title, a competitor’s offer. But if you look more carefully, the answer is often closer to home.Most top performers don’t leave their jobs. They leave their managers.It’s hard to hear, but it’s the

Why Estimating and Planning Still Matter - Mike Cohn

Why Estimating and Planning Still Matter - Mike CohnOver the years, I’ve talked with a lot of teams who’ve been burned by estimating and planning.They’ve seen estimates treated as promises.Plans turned into contracts.Teams punished for being wrong rather than rewarded for learning.Given experiences like those, it’s understandable that many teams conclude the solution is to eliminate estimating and planning altogether.I think that’s a mistake.Estimating and planning still matter—not because the

The Meaning and Significance of Good Friday

The Agile Daily Standup - AgileDad ·

2026/04/04

The Meaning and Significance of Good FridayWhy Good Friday is the Holiest Day of the YearGood Friday stands at the heart of the Christian faith. It is the day when Jesus Christ, the Son of God, suffered and died on the cross for the salvation of humanity. While the name “Good Friday” may seem paradoxical—given that it commemorates Christ’s suffering and death—it is “good” because His sacrifice opened the gates of heaven and restored our relationship with God.How to connect with AgileDad:-

Which Leadership Pattern Shows Up Under Pressure? - Mike CohnEvery year around April 1st, we like to have a little fun.But as with most good humor, there’s usually a grain of truth underneath it.After working with thousands of teams and leaders over the years, one thing has become very clear: agile rarely succeeds or fails because of a framework. It succeeds or fails because of leadership behavior under pressure.When deadlines tighten…. When scope grows…. When velocity dips…. When stakeholders ask

Predictability Is My North Star

2026/03/26

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

Corporate, Business or Functional Strategy?

2026/03/24

Corporate, Business or Functional Strategy? The differences between Corporate Strategy, Business Strategy, and Functional Strategy lie primarily in their scope, time horizon, and focus. These three levels form a hierarchy that ensures all parts of a diversified organization are aligned, moving from the broad, long-term vision down to specific, day-to-day actions.The structure of these strategies is often visualized as a pyramid, with the Corporate Strategy at the top providing the overall direction,

Celebrating PI Day!

2026/03/13

Celebrating PI Day! “I finally see where I belong” often starts quietly, almost by accident. A student wanders into a Pi Day event because there’s free pie, not because they think math has anything to do with them. They expect to feel like an outsider again—another room where the “real” math people will do the talking. But as they listen, they hear a guest speaker casually mention being the first in their family to go to college, or struggling with math in middle school, or switching careers into

5 Ways High Performers Disrupt Team Harmony

2026/03/10

5 Ways High Performers Disrupt Team HarmonyHigh performers rarely disrupt teams on purpose. More often, disruption happens because they move faster than the systems, processes, or people around them. Their confidence, speed, and problem-solving ability can subtly change how work gets done and how others show up.The problem isn’t their performance. It’s their speed and capability that invisibly reshape team dynamics. Teammates begin working around them instead of with them. And gradually, they become

Scrum The Toyota Way

2026/03/09

Scrum The Toyota WayScrum is everywhere.Most Product Owners understand the framework well. We manage backlogs, prioritize items, attend ceremonies, and track progress sprint after sprint.And still, many products struggle.Value takes too long to reach customers. Teams deliver features that are rarely used. Defects appear late. Dependencies and waiting time quietly erode delivery speed.This is not because Scrum is broken.It’s because Scrum alone does not address flow and waste deeply enough. That’s

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

Agile Anti-Patterns That Are Impacting Your Velocity

2026/03/03

Agile Anti-Patterns That Are Impacting Your VelocityVelocity is not vanity. It is feedback. When velocity stops reflecting reality, the team loses the ability to learn and improve. Velocity that lies is worse than no velocity at all.

Sprint Goals DONT Work - Or Do They?

2026/03/02

Sprint Goals DON'T Work - Or Do They? Sprint Goals sound beautifully simple.Set a goal for the team, organize the work around it, track progress daily, and finish with success.Sounds easy enough. And that’s exactly why it’s so hard.Behind this deceptively simple concept hides one of the most difficult ideas in Agile. As the Scrum Guide says:“Scrum is lightweight, simple to understand, difficult to master.”Sprint Goals are the perfect example of that. Even when you think you’re doing them right,

How Much Are Meetings Hurting You? - Mike CohnI’m emailing because we keep seeing the same issue surface in different organizations, even where teams are experienced and committed.If something isn’t working, it will usually show up in your meetings first. That’s because work habits show up in real meetings, under real pressure.If planning, reviews, retrospectives, and daily scrums aren’t working, agile won’t work. That’s where priorities get set, decisions get made, and trade-offs happen (or

And yet their product no closer to solving the user’s problem than it was three Sprints ago.
