TIETOJA TÄSTÄ JAKSOSTA
You're doing everything right. The team is working hard, the process looks sensible, the effort is real. And yet — somehow — it's still not working. And nobody quite wants to say why.
In this one, we use our own dance teaching as a live case study in kill, pivot, commit decisions: two years of tweaks, probes, and exhausted options before one unexpected forcing function finally made the decision for them.
- Why the real problem is often visible — but no one can look at it straight on
- The difference between a panicked pivot and one that feels like settling (the good kind)
- How "problems grow to the size they need to" before you can act — and what that costs in the meantime
- The invisible organisational boundaries that make the logical option impossible
- Why loyalty to early customers makes the necessary pivot harder than it should be
- The Transactional Analysis trap that turns your friends into an audience for a problem you don't actually want solved
- Fat Duck or McDonald's — and why the middle is the worst place to be
For anyone who's been doing the sensible thing for long enough to suspect the sensible thing isn't working.

Xerox PARC famously invented the mouse, the graphical user interface, and the printer — then watched Steve Jobs walk off with all of it. The usual lesson: silly management didn't recognise what they had. The actual lesson is more useful ... and more uncomfortable for innovator types. Sit in your be…

In this one we're pushing a pram round Bournemouth with a one-month-old and making sense of the current AI moment — from the slop machine that online advertising has become to why the big frontier model b…
What do you do if Strategy Doesn't Exist?
Tom and Corissa have built a strategy consultancy and they're here to tell you that strategy doesn't exist.
At least, not in the way everyone sells it — and probably not in the way you've been trying to do it.
This one was sparked by a recent episode from f…

Bread makers don't knead dough the way a human baker does. They get to the same result via a completely different route — and that turns out to be a pretty good map for what's actually happening with AI right now.
We start with brioche, end up in a crisis of professional tacit knowledge, and find a…
