  1. How Cross-Team Collaboration Unlocked 10+ Hours a Week with Jason Barnard Karl Staib 36:29

Join Jason and me for a discussion about building systems that work well for you and your team’s culture. Jason Barnard is the founder of Kallicube, an AI branding company. One of my favorite parts of this interview is the system he uses for cross-team collaboration.

You can get the Magnetic Systems Method (and other systems guides) to find issues before they become expensive problems.

Highlights from the interview:

1. Mastermind system for cross-team collaboration

He describes a system of cross-team masterminds where employees from different departments come together to share problems and brainstorm solutions. This helps improve communication, understanding, and problem-solving across the organization.

2. Automation and efficiency gains from mastermind insights

An example is provided where the marketing team was able to automate processes after getting input from the more tech-savvy production team during a mastermind session. This led to significant time savings for the marketing department.

3. Jason’s background and polymorphic career path 

He shares how his diverse experiences, from economics to music to cartoons, have shaped his ability to think creatively and tackle complex problems, especially in understanding how search engines and AI work.

4. Maintaining regular communication with team leads

He has weekly 30-minute calls with each department head to stay connected, understand challenges, and provide guidance, as well as a monthly all-hands meeting where everyone shares wins, struggles, and other updates.

5. Intentional reflection time and setting reasonable daily goals 

He describes a daily routine of spending 10 minutes in the morning reflecting on the day ahead, assessing what is reasonable and possible to accomplish, rather than creating overly ambitious to-do lists.
