Most teams only celebrate the finish line — a habit that is leaving your team behind.

In this Pit Stop episode, Diane and Erich make the case for a small but powerful shift: celebrating ALL milestones (not just the big wins). When teams builds this habit, people stop wondering if their effort was noticed — and start showing up with more of it.

Regardless of the type of team you are leading or program you deliver, this episode gives you a practical challenge you can act on this week.

Evolving your work, accelerating your impact

Most team friction isn't about the work — it's about unspoken expectations around how people work together.

In this Scrap Yard episode, Diane and Erich dig into two habits that separate high-performing teams from ones that just get by: understanding how your teammates like to receive (and offer) help, and knowing how to give and receive feedback that actually lands. When those two things click, teams stop losing energy to misread signals and start building the kind of trust that makes everything else move faster.

Whether you're leading a sprint team or running a nonprofit program, these aren't soft skills — they're the infrastructure your team runs on.

In this Co-pilot episode of Agile Driven Impact, hosts Diane and Erich are joined by Rob Hatch — executive coach, trusted advisor to CEOs and senior leaders, and author of Attention! and Success Frames — to challenge one of the most deeply held assumptions in continuous improvement: that we learn best from failure.

Rob makes the case that what teams actually need is a deliberate practice of examining what went right — the specific decisions, behaviors, and conditions that drove results. Without that, teams dismiss their wins as "just doing the job" and miss the patterns that would make success repeatable.

In this conversation, Rob breaks down what a Success Frame is, how to build one, and how Agile teams can bring that lens to their retrospectives — shifting from failure analysis to something more energizing and more useful.

If your retros spend more time on what went wrong than what to protect, this episode is for you.
