We've heard all the usual suspects when it comes to remote engagement—Slack check-ins, virtual happy hours, maybe an annual engagement survey if we're lucky. But what if the problem isn't the tools, but the assumptions? In this episode, David Rice sits down with Dr. Adora Ikwuemesi, whose recent qualitative study of remote workers in Nigeria reveals a much deeper, more nuanced picture of what truly drives—or erodes—remote engagement.Adora walks us through her seven-part framework that emerged from conversations with 24 remote workers. Spoiler: it's not just about more communication; it's about better connection. From the physical realities of working without reliable electricity, to the surprising role that fun plays in fostering commitment, this conversation strips engagement down to its real-world components—beyond perks and policies. If you think your team is “fine,” you may just be missing the silence before the storm.Related Links:Join the People Managing People community forumSubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Dr. Adora on LinkedInCheck out Dr. Adora's website and Kendor Consulting LtdSupport the show

 With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   In This Episode: It's not luck. It's not magic. Running a successful retail shop takes purpose, planning, and showing up as your best self. In this inspiring episode, I'm sharing a powerful reminder from one of my favorite authors, Jon Acuff:  “Awesome is never accidental.” Let's talk about how you can intentionally create a business that feels great for you and your customers—on purpose, not by chance. We don't want average businesses or lives: strive for AWESOME.   Tips on Raising Your Retail Standards: “Awesome” isn't just luck. Success is built with intention. Stop saying “She's so lucky” and ask what she is doing differently. Be an intentional leader. Plan 90 days ahead like a CEO. Learn new skills to grow your shop and confidence. Make business decisions that align with your personal and brand values. Level up your customer's experience. 81% of people will leave your store if they think someone else offers a better experience. Inconsistent service can drive even loyal customers away. Set clear store standards: music, smell, cleanliness, staff behavior—it all matters.   Your Next Steps: Write down the quote: Awesome is never accidental. Pick one small area in your business and raise the bar. Ask yourself: how can I be more awesome today?   Related podcasts we think you'll like:  Episode 136: Annual Planning that Fills Your Life Buckets Episode 143: How to Plan and Host Successful Events in Your Retail Shop Episode 144: How to Create a Customer Journey Map About your host, Wendy Batten In case we haven't met yet, I'm Wendy, a small business coach and founder of the Retailer's Inner Circle, where I help other independent shop owners learn how to gain the right business skillsets to see more profits, paychecks, and joy as they navigate running their retail business.  Through online classes, business coaching programs, speaking, and a top-ranked podcast, I've helped hundreds of retailers around the globe reclaim their dream and see the success they want from their beautiful shops.

Their story is one of serendipity, hard work, and a deep connection to both land and family—think accidental farmers turned boutique winemakers, whose grapes have made their way into cult Pinot Noirs and acclaimed bottles from top California producers.We journey from the wild days of pulling up old apple orchards and setting them ablaze to crafting expressive, balanced Pinots and Chardonnays with a nod to tradition and a spark of innovation. Along the way, Alex and Zach open up about family roots, their paths from restaurants, real estate, and snowboarding—yes, you read that right—to building a close-knit, collaborative team at Kanzler.

My guest is Fyodor Tertitskiy, a prolific scholar, polyglot, and one of the few who reads the footnotes of history in multiple languages. His new book, Accidental Tyrant, a biography of Kim Il Sung, challenges the official state mythology and unearths the improbable rise of a guerrilla fighter turned dynastic dictator. This is how Kim Il Sung outwitted imperialists, communists, comrades, and colonels alike, turning chance into legacy, failure into foundation. But the question remains: what does this all mean for those of us living in a world still shaped by the ghosts of his decisions?  Buy Fyodor's latest book here: https://www.amazon.com/Accidental-Tyrant-Life-Kim-sung/dp/0197800882 David A.

But since then, with the help of the Revolutionary Guard he has had almost complete control of Iran and its anti-Israel and anti-American foreign policy agenda.  Sky's Tom Cheshire speaks to Alex Vatanka, founding director of the Iran program at the Middle East Institute in Washington, DC about how Khamanei is viewed inside Iran and how his policies contributed to the current crisis. Producer: Soila Apparicio Assistant producer: Araminta Parker Editor: Wendy Parker

In this engaging conversation with Juicy Julio (JJ), we explore how a simple family trip to Morocco planted the seeds for a passionate journey into photography that would later become his salvation during the isolation of COVID lockdowns.JJ shares the deeply personal story of how photography emerged as his emotional lifeline after losing family members during the pandemic. Unable to attend funerals or say proper goodbyes, he discovered that his camera became the channel through which he could transform grief and negativity into creative expression. This accidental photographer, who is also a chemical engineer by profession, draws fascinating parallels between his scientific work and his artistic pursuits.The conversation takes us through JJ's varied experiences - from flipping burgers at a local restaurant (mainly for the free food!) to his current work in chemistry. His thoughtful approach to Web3 reveals a commitment to security (maintaining two separate hardware wallets) and community building that extends to his creative practice. Despite being relatively new to the NFT space, JJ offers valuable insights for artists entering the ecosystem: take time to understand the technology, build genuine connections beyond simple transactions, and remember the humans behind the profile pictures.What makes this episode special is the vulnerability and authenticity JJ brings to the table. His father's advice - "don't make emotional decisions" - has shaped his approach to both art and investment. Looking ahead, JJ shares his plans for giving back to supporters through special drops and a carefully curated standalone collection, embodying the community-first ethos that makes Web3 a unique space for creators.Whether you're an aspiring photographer, NFT enthusiast, or simply someone looking for inspiration on turning personal challenges into creative opportunities, JJ's journey offers valuable lessons on patience, intentionality, and finding light in unexpected places.

Send us a textWhen life unexpectedly shatters your plans, do you see rubble or building blocks for something greater? For Betsy Pepine, a corporate layoff while suddenly single with two toddlers became the catalyst for an entrepreneurial journey that would transform her life and countless others.Raised with the expectation she'd become a physician like her father, Betsy initially compromised by working in the pharmaceutical industry after pivoting from pre-med to business in college. Though financially rewarding, the work left her feeling disconnected from her purpose. When corporate downsizing forced her hand, she embraced the opportunity to completely reinvent her professional identity in real estate.The transition wasn't easy. The first six months tested her resolve as she confronted an industry culture that felt reminiscent of high school politics. But Betsy persevered, discovering that while houses might sell themselves, the real fulfillment came from guiding clients through significant life transitions.What truly sets Betsy's story apart is how she evolved from solopreneur to visionary business leader. When a key employee left citing the lack of family atmosphere, growth opportunities, and community involvement, it sparked a profound shift in Betsy's approach to leadership. She established core values centered on putting her team first, implementing policies like a zero-tolerance no-gossip rule that fortified an award-winning company culture.As her brokerage flourished, Betsy strategically expanded with vertical businesses—a real estate school, title company, mortgage company, and property management firm—all serving the same client base while creating additional value streams. Her commitment to community impact led to establishing a nonprofit addressing affordable housing needs, perfectly aligning with her mission to improve and empower others' lives.Through her book "Breaking the Box," Betsy now helps others identify and overcome the limitations they place on themselves—whether from gender expectations, family origin, or societal norms. Her journey reminds us that our greatest setbacks often clear the path to our most authentic success, and that time—not money or status—is our most precious asset.Ready to break free from your own boxes?

The Kims, of North Korea, are perhaps the 21st century's most successful family dictatorship–if only due to sheer longevity, having run North Korea for the almost eight decades since the country's post-war founding. Kim Il-Sung led North Korea for over half that time, from its founding in 1948 to Kim's death in 1994. But who was Kim Il-Sung? How did someone who spent most of his early years in nearby Manchuria end up running North Korea?

The Failure Factor: Stories of Career Perseverance

Olivia Landau, Co-Founder and CEO of The Clear Cut—the largest digitally native natural diamond jewelry company in the United States—shares how a side hustle selling engagement rings through Instagram DMs transformed into a $100M company. Despite being dismissed by venture capitalists and warned by her family not to become an entrepreneur, Olivia Landau chose to bet on herself. Alongside her then-boyfriend (now husband and co-founder), Kyle, she took a leap of faith, walking away from the safe path and rejecting startup “best practices” that didn't feel aligned. Instead of following the noise, she doubled down on what felt right: human connection, deep education, craftsmanship, and building slow and intentionally. Her voice is a powerful reminder of what can happen when you block out the noise, trust your gut, and build your way—even when everyone says you're doing it wrong.   Key Takeaways and Topics: How The Clear Cut started as an educational blog and Instagram side hustle Olivia's generational roots in the diamond industry and how that shaped her approach The myths around lab-grown vs. natural diamonds—and why she refuses to sell lab-created stones Fundraising rejection: Why no VCs would invest and how they raised $700K from angels and customers instead The Clear Cut's breakthrough moment during the pandemic and how their custom-built tech scaled the business Why “unscalable” things are worth doing first The emotional toll and impostor syndrome that come with fundraising and startup leadership How Olivia navigates being a new mom, co-founder, and CEO Debunking ethical misconceptions about natural diamonds—and why the real story matters Why having a personal brand and showing your face on social media can be a competitive advantage Her advice to aspiring founders: Don't wait for perfection, just take the first step   Disclaimer: Olivia shares her view that natural diamonds can be more ethical than lab-grown alternatives. This is a nuanced topic; what is “ethical” depends on your values. Natural diamonds may support economies like Botswana's, while lab-grown stones produced with renewable energy may appeal to those prioritizing environmental impact. Some stats shared from memory have been clarified: Diamonds make up 25–30% of Botswana's GDP, not 80% as mentioned (that figure refers to exports). Diamond revenues fund free primary education, subsidized secondary education, and universal healthcare in Botswana. While “stipends” aren't standard, the government provides scholarships and financial support to students and select groups. We've included these clarifications to support informed decision-making.   The Failure Factor Podcast was brought to you by Off The Field Coaching.

Brittany Murphy's shocking death at just 32 was not only a tragic loss but also the spark of countless conspiracy theories, from claims of foul play at the hands of her husband to whispers of a government cover-up linked to a national security whistleblower. Some have even drawn chilling connections between her untimely demise and powerful figures like Sean "Diddy" Combs. Once a beloved, radiant star known for her roles in films like Clueless and 8 Mile, Brittany's death in December 2009 was initially ruled as natural causes, attributed to pneumonia and anemia. But the circumstances surrounding her death — her sudden decline in health, the strange events leading up to her death, and the eerie similarities to that of her husband Simon Monjack, who passed just five months later — has fueled a firestorm of conspiracy theories. Was it indeed "natural," or was there something more sinister at play?

This week, Len Testa and Jim Hill reveal how Disney's “temporary” structures - from party tents to prefab domes - have a habit of overstaying their welcome. What starts as a stopgap often becomes a staple, and nowhere is that more obvious than in the strange evolution from Mickey's Birthdayland to Toontown. Mickey's Birthdayland - The 18-month quick fix that morphed into a 20-year land. Festival of the Lion King - The show that squatted in a space meant for dragons... and thrived. Magic Kingdom Strategy - How early entry and Lightning Lane stacking can knock out every headliner by noon. Disney's Indoor Parks - From DisneyQuest to Abu Dhabi, a look at the past and future of enclosed theme parks. It's a celebration of Disney's most beloved “temporary” projects - and the ones that just refused to leave.
