In this reflective and inspiring year-end episode of Mastering Agility, hosts Sander Dur and Jim Sammons are joined by "Solving For Value" co-author and "evil twin" Ryan Brook, along with editor extraordinaire Marge Scheuerer, for a conversation about leadership, agility, and the ever-elusive definition of success.

From personal growth in 2024 to the challenges of balancing work and personal satisfaction - this episode dives deep into what it means to be a leader, a consultant, and, above all, human. With topics ranging from the over-certification of Scrum Masters to giving back through charitable work, this episode is packed with humor, introspection, and actionable insights for leaders and agile practitioners alike.

• Why not all Scrum Masters are created equal.

• The importance of balancing career ambitions with personal fulfillment.

• What it means to be a leader versus a manager.

• The evolving definition of “enough” in life and work.

• Pro bono work and giving back to the community.

• How to create personalized approaches to learning and leadership.

• The joys of being authentic—and the challenges it brings.
