Episode 3391:

Bryan Shelton explores how applying behavioral science can accelerate skill development, showing how to set and achieve goals using structured, deliberate practice. Through steps like pinpointing specific behaviors and reinforcing improvements, he demonstrates how teams can both "go fast" and "go far" by building momentum together, making learning a more efficient and collaborative experience.

Quotes to ponder:

"Mountain biking is made up of several complex behavior chains. As a biker develops their skills in these areas, they have the ability to pick up and maintain speed."

"Sessioning is a fancy word for deliberate practice building the skills necessary to complete our goal."

"Maybe we need to ditch the proverb, 'If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together,' and replace it with something that recognizes that fast and far are achievable with deliberate practice."
