Welcome to another episode of At the Table with Patrick Linconey, where everything we talk

about is related to changing the world of work so that more organizations can be more

effective and less dysfunctional, and employees can be more fulfilled and less miserable. I'm Pat Lynchoni your

host and I'm with Cody Thompson my co-host. That's right and with rare chance

when we're just the two of us are in the room there's no Tracy and there's no

math so it's just us this could go off the rails pretty pretty quickly and probably

will we didn't get suck in the title though so we whiffed on that one that's

right what is the title? The title is

slowing down to go fast. Right. And this is a saying that comes from the world of

race car driving. And recently my one of my sons and one of the employees here has gotten really into

F1 Formula One racing in Europe.

And I never watched it growing up.

But it's amazing to me, I mean these cars go so fast, it's nuts.

They come to almost a complete stop when they go into a turn.

And it's the concept, race car drivers will say,

if you don't slow down going into a turn,

you cannot accelerate coming out of it.

And too many people in work have what we call the adrenaline addiction where they can't slow down.

They're always trying to go as fast as they can.

And in race car driving, that means they're spinning out

going into the turns or they're not stable.

And so they can't accelerate coming out of it.
