Go Slow to Go Fast
We live in a culture that prizes speed—but sometimes moving slower is what actually accelerates results. In this episode, Paul and Matt explore when deliberate pauses pay off, how to test “slow-downs” safely, and how leaders can set the right cadence without losing urgency when it matters most.
Five Key Learnings:
- Slowing down can reduce rework, surface hidden costs, and sharpen decisions.
- Smart slow-downs (like reflection or structured breaks) often boost creativity and clarity.
- Speed frequently degrades our decision making and causes us to miss opportunities to build on others work
- Teams can run tiny experiments—like slowing a sprint kickoff—to test the benefits.
- Mature leaders can help team members see how to balance slowing down and speeding up
