There are a number of ideas in this chapter that if you\u2019re not familiar with them are frankly just really good ideas. Many of the ideas in this chapter I have been using for years and some of the inferred issues I am still working on. As my experiment for this week, I would love to say that I am going to sleep more. What I will do is to move my phone away from the bed so I can\u2019t get to it easily after I lay down.\xa0 I will also work to have an equal mix of sitting and standing. Next week we will complete our re-read of Monotasking covering the Afterword from the book and some closing notes from me. We\u2019ll also start the poll to pick the next book in the series. The entries for the weeks of August 28th and September 5th will feature reprints. I am going backpacking and turning off all communication devices.\xa0 As we prepare for the next book, is there a book you think we should \u201cre-read\u201d?\xa0 If you have ideas please let me know and I will add them to the list of current possibles: \xa0 Mik Kersten - Project to Product Charles Duhigg - The Power of Habit Tony Bouz\xf3n - The Mind Map Book Chris Voss - Never Split The Difference Douglas Squirrel and Jeffrey Fredrick - Agile Conversations \xa0 This week\u2019s Re-read entry:\xa0 Week 9 - Recharge Creative Thinking -\xa0 Previous Entries in\xa0 Week 1 \u2013 \u2013 \xa0 Week 2 \u2013 \u2013 \xa0 Week 3 \u2013 \u2013 \xa0 Week 4 \u2013 \u2013 \xa0 Week 5 \u2013 \u2013 \xa0 Week 6 \u2013 \u2013\xa0 \xa0 Week 7 \u2013 \u2013 \xa0 Week 8 \u2013 \u2013 \xa0 Next SPaMCAST\xa0 Next week we dive into one of the aspects of the attributes of Teams. Teams don\u2019t live in a vacuum. Every team is an intersection of boundaries of all sorts of organizations. Organizations facilitate teams to a greater or lesser extent. In the workplace, the employer\u2019s organization will have the most significant impact on how teams form and perform but it is not the totality. Other influences can affect the structure and performance of teams. We will also have a visit from Jon M Quigley who will bring his Alpha and Omega of Product Development column to the podcast.
