Happy Holidays everyone!

Hey, in case you have another interesting question with regards to leadership, agility or modern management, then just go ahead and ask in the same curious way like Udo did it a few weeks ago. Thanks Udo for staying curious and sharing your knowledge to the community as well!

Today I am closing my answer to the question "What are general patterns in teams you experienced so far?" from @udowiegaertner with the ugly situations and patterns. Enjoy the 5min read.

What is the "Elvis Presley Disorder"? You probably won't know the term, but it tries to describe one of the top 3 "bad patterns" I have observed a few times during my 2 decades of working with modern, agile teams. Find out what I mean by "Elvis Presley Disorder" in my article.

Thank you @udowiegaertner for asking me this question on LinkedIn. I decided to write up my thoughts and views in a miniseries of 3 articles, starting with the good. Hope it's useful.

What makes teams successful? Obviously, this is quite a complicated question. Still, there is a simple answer to it with the essentials that most successful teams have: link.medium.com/Tc8DcoRi3kb

I am looking very much positively towards the next chapters of our technological advancement. Because I do see many bright and brilliant minds coming up to improve our minds and bodies lives through technology. It's just that Meta proved to be the complete opposite. 12/12

That being said, I'd like to explicitly point out that I am talking about Meta as a company/holding - not the metaverse as a concept. We do in fact have so many great minds and companies capable of great innovation and advancement in the fields of VR, AR and more. 11/12

Meta Territory - A threaded opinion about @Meta - 1/12 Meta - this is not just a rename, or an adjustment of a companies vision. In fact what #MarkZuckerberg presented to the world as a "visionary metaverse" was more a fascinating idea gone very wrong.

Wer das Erreichte nicht zu schätzen weiß, wird das noch zu Erreichende nie zu schätzen wissen.

@HannesPreishub Ich find‘s auch lustig und irgendwie nice, dass ich mit dem Tweet selbst quasi die Aussage des Tweets belegt habe… Inception einfach! 😂

@HannesPreishub Ach so 😯 Keine Sorge, ich schätze deinen Beitrag wirklich sehr. Der Zwinkersmiley hatte sich auf meine Aussage zu „Twitter als ~aLLeRbeStEs~ Kommunikationmedium“ bezogen und sollte die Ironie hinter dieser Aussage vermitteln. Ich hoffe es ist jetzt klarer für dich.

Ich wurde gefragt, wie man Kommunikation verbessern kann. Here we go: aufrichtig erzählen, aufmerksam zuhören, anerkennend respektieren. Hope this helps 😌
