Apparently Winston Churchill once said that “success is going from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm”. I’m sure we all look for success by improving what we do, whether it’s trialling a new crop variety, livestock genetics or a machinery demo. You need to be an optimist (and sometimes an opportunist) to push past the status quo.

In my brief and inglorious military career, we were once quizzed as to who in our infantry platoon had the most dangerous bit of kit. “Easy,” we thought. “The machine gunner, the mortar section, the sniper.” All sadly wrong – the most lethal person in the group was the signaller.

Bill James challenged common wisdom and turned us into more intelligent baseball fans with his Baseball Abstract series back in the 1980s. I could have recommended any one of the many books he wrote, but this book is a terrific summary of his impact on the game as retold by “colleagues, critics, competitors, and fans.” Who better to describe how important he was to the game than those who were most affected by him? I consider this a great entry point to digging into his terrific work.

I am sure many of us have seen at least the headlines about the latest State of Nature report, and the inevitable farmer bashing that forms a big part of the conclusions.

This is my favorite account on any platform. Capt. Chris Hill is an amazing leader. And he’s giving us a ringside seat as he relentlessly pursues culture change in one of the toughest, highest-stakes environments imaginable. #warriorsoldier
Leaders need to be into the morale building business. It’s not as much about time off and cookies, although they’re super helpful. It’s about making people feel valued & part of something greater than themselves. Leaders literally control this power. And it produces results. https://t.co/MHxfIUmX6F
