#6 - Brian Smith: Agility and character: for work and for play.
Brian coaches agility development for BigBear.ai. Our conversation starts in Guam, includes the Wright brothers, and ends with family karate. We also discuss:
- managing vs coaching
- listening to and learning from your employees
- efficient employees vs. high value employees
- the cost (and benefit?) of standing by your principles
- decisions from long ago that affect decisions we make today
- The Goal by Eli Goldratt (two thumbs up)
- Mike's Pastries in Boston
Bert’s company is Dexterity Engineering, LLC
