Sharpening the saw

At a time when Women were starting to work in the New Zealand Forest industry, the nomenclature mostly centered around men, workmanship, man planted farm forestry, etc. In our business Parkes Logging, during those years my Mother and Sister worked on and in the business too, and though I loosely use some of those terms here, the playing field has leveled.
With the second episode of the Lumberjack Lore Podcast I talk a lot about nomenclature as it relates to "sharpening the Saw". 
This is a term we often hear in the corporate and sporting Worlds as it relates to best practice, elite performance, the much maligned word "graft", efficiency and embraced within a cultural desire for continuous improvement.
From a literal position of sharpening a Saw several times a day during my twenty year career as a Lumberjack I talk a bit about this niche skill that ultimately, once learnt, made the job look easy. But it was a hard earned illusion representative of the necessity for continually going back to iterating, reinventing, innovating and evolving from your accumulated experience and wisdom. Listening and learning from your mentors.
I use this experience as an analogy that transcends industry and career in a way that I hope represents what I want the Lumberjack Lore Podcast to be once I start to bring it to life with guests that have developed their own unique Craft.
There is so much more I wanted to say about the art of chainsaw chain sharpening that I will leave for fillers in other episodes and maybe another stand alone one into the future...
