Episode Notes

Teams often struggle because we don’t understand why people think the way they do — leading to miscommunication, low performance, and frustration.

In this episode of East Trade Winds, we host Adam Kirkaldy of MindTime (LinkedIn: Adam Kirkaldy, websites: adamkirkaldy.com and mindtimedynamics.com). He shares a powerful framework called the MindTime model that explains individual motivations through three dimensions: past thinking, present thinking, and future thinking. Adam introduces how this model is different from behavior‑only models by going deeper: exploring how people’s thought patterns shape actions, communication, and collaboration.

You’ll hear about how using the MindTime survey can predict how teams behave and how organizations can apply insights to build balanced, whole‑thinking teams. The presentation ends with an invitation: join the East Trade Winds weekly meeting, network with peers, hear more guest speakers, and learn how this thinking tool can be used in your business.
