Mats Andersson /Bruce Eckfeldt

In Today’s episode, Mats is sitting down (via Skype) with Bruce Eckfeldt. 


Bruce always wanted to become an architect and received two architect degrees at McGill university in Montreal. During his education, he was one of the first classes who had computers on hand and he quickly found himself interested in computer modelling and animation. 

Not long after, Bruce got into the field of product design and how to develop strategies around products. 

He was an early adopter of Agile and founded a company in 2002 around lean Agile software development.

Today, Bruce’s focus is executive coaching and he works with CEOs and leadership teams. 

Bruce talks about how he is coaching the leadership teams and how hard it is to sometimes stay in the coaching role rather than being more directive. 

He also explains why a CEO would need a coach and we talk about the importance of middle management, in companies, the people who make it happen and often are stuck between a rock and a hard place. 

You will also find out what "Minnesota nice" means and what connecion it has to Sweden.
