Mastering Agility Podcast Theme

What is Mastering Agility?

Mastering Agility is a podcast series to aims to inspire listeners to drive value, improve the way they work, and how they are able to adapt in complex environments. Topics discussed vary widely, depending on the guest speaker(s). Whether it’s about people, frameworks, technical challenges, user experience reports or anything else related to business agility – it will be discussed in this podcast.

We are now in our Fifth Season!  Looking back it is humbling and makes us proud to have had some of the biggest names in the industry in our 60+ episode history.  

Season 5 is marking a shift in the podcast as Sander is now joined by full time co-host Jim Sammons.  To learn more about Jim please check out the Hosts page.  

Mastering Agility is free to listen to and is currently advertisement-free. Future support will include Patreon options!

Could this show be something for me?

The format of Mastering Agility is informal and freestyle. Conversations flow as they come and do not have a preset of questions. Every now and then there are episodes where people can send in their questions for specific guests, and there are regular giveaways. Past give-aways include new books (signed by their author), an Apollo V Lego Set, and a Zombie Scrum Survival Kit.

If you’re working in an Agile environment and want to get more ideas on how and what you can improve, this show is for you!

Is the show suitable for children?

Yes, there are no inappropriate topics being discussed. The language and material are probably too complex for children to comprehend and at times some an expletive may slip in, we’re human after all.  

If you have any concerns we suggest listening with, or prior to, children listening to the show.
