Why Listen Right Now
The Titanic had binoculars. Radios. Multiple iceberg warnings from nearby ships.
They still hit the iceberg.
Your company is doing the exact same thing right now. You're getting signals—AI announcements, market shifts, your best people quietly updating LinkedIn—and you're... waiting to see what happens?
Todd Kamens learned Scrum from Ken Schwaber himself. Spent 20+ years doing agile transformations at Fortune 500s. Then he realized: We've been solving the wrong problem.
It's not about the process. It never was.
The Big Moments🧠 The Unsolicited Advice Bomb
"Unsolicited advice can be criticism in disguise." You show up as a coach ready to "help," and people hear: "Everything you've been doing is wrong." No wonder 65% of employees are disengaged.
⚕️ Medicine 3.0 for Business
Modern medicine doesn't wait for the heart attack. It looks at genetics, bloodwork, trends—and prevents problems before they happen. What if we did that for businesses? Todd's building that framework.
📈 The S-Curve Truth
Apple killed the iPod with the iPhone. Killed it BEFORE someone else could. The secret? Reinvent before you hit the peak, not after. When you're comfortable, not in crisis.
🚨 The 65% Problem
Only 30-35% of employees are actually engaged. The rest are checked out or actively resisting. And you wonder why transformations fail?
"Unsolicited advice can be criticism in disguise."
— Dr. Ryan Madigan
- Why most transformations fail (you're solving the wrong problem)
- How to build early warning systems for disruption
- The quarterly signal review that actually works
- How to personally reinvent before you become obsolete
Todd's 3-Phase System:

- Agile Implementation (How do we move fast?)
Set 5 key signals. Review them quarterly. Act before crisis.

P.S. If you're waiting to deal with disruption "when it happens," this episode will make you uncomfortable. Good. The Titanic had warnings. So does your business. Do you have a system to act on them?
