Todd: [00:00:00] [00:00:00] so Derek 50 episodes in the season, it’s been awesome.
[00:00:04]
[00:00:04] Derek: [00:00:04] It flew by Todd,
[00:00:06] Todd: [00:00:06] right? I mean, it really did, like I remember every dozen or so checking in like, wow, we’re almost to 20. Oh my gosh 40 , it really does move fast and it’s been really fun to do this with you and.
[00:00:18] I can’t explain to people listening or watching who have never done a, an activity and exercise in creating a podcast and interviewing people. But we have met some of the most fascinating people on this journey.
[00:00:31] Derek: [00:00:31] It’s been an amazing year in terms of the conversations we’ve had and people who had the opportunity to meet and talk with and learn about I’ve enjoyed every conversation and learned so much personally from that process.
[00:00:44]Todd: [00:00:44] So for this 50th episode, we’ve broken this into three distinct, categories reflecting on the three topics that came up most during the show. And I thought it would be fun to see, start with [00:00:55] insights about fun and learning and core values, because that’s literally what attracted me [00:01:00] to scrimmage and to working with you in the first place Derek. And before we even dive into the insights, it’d be a good opportunity for you to share a little bit about the scrimmage core values and how they came about and what they stand for and how they’ve shown up for you during this process.
[00:01:17] Derek: [00:01:17] Sure. So my overarching building scrimmage has always been to create an environment where people want to be, where they choose to be, where they are inspired to come to work every day, to get better and to serve our clients and our partners. And that it feels alive. It feels like people are growing and it feels like there’s purpose.
[00:01:36] And I find that that’s fun and I’ve always felt it important to create an atmosphere. That is fun that people enjoy and that when they leave the virtual office that we’re now in, or what was at one time, an actual office that they go home and they feel excited to some extent, even about even when things are challenging, they’re looking forward to the next day.
[00:01:56] and even when things are challenging, they’re looking forward to tackling that and moving [00:02:00] to the next phase of whatever it is and that they enjoy working with them. The people in an organization that make it worthwhile.
