Rarely do we know when crisis will strike – a pandemic, war, or a GFC-like event – but if it does happen, the impact on your business and staff could be just as seismic. So how can you prepare for a potential disaster? It helps to have an adaptive mindset, insists Prof Martin Bean, CEO of The Bean Centre, and former Vice Chancellor of RMIT University, during the lockdown days of COVID-19. He has co-authored a book, ‘Toolkit for Turbulence: The mindset and methods that leaders need to turn adversity to advantage’. An adaptive mindset, he says, equips you and your team to deal with fast and unpredictable change, to navigate in uncertainty, to collaborate on complex entangled problems, and to embrace ambiguity and paradoxes.

In this episode, podcast host Steve Vancore chats with retired city manager Mike Abels about tackling unconventional challenges in city management. They discuss how modern issues often require adaptive solutions beyond traditional hierarchical methods. Emphasizing the importance of situational awareness and interagency communication, they explore how decentralizing decision-making can help address the societal polarization exacerbated by biased media and a decline in local news consumption. The conversation also touches on the necessity of collaboration in governance, with Mike citing historical successes and failures to illustrate effective and ineffective strategies. They conclude by discussing the challenges posed by disruptive commissioners and the potential role of educational initiatives like citizens' academies in fostering a better understanding of democratic processes. This episode offers a condensed look at innovative management strategies for today's complex governmental landscape.

In this episode of the STR Data Lab, Jamie Lane is joined by John An, founder of TechTape. The two share insights into navigating today's volatile travel market. Jamie highlighted that 2024 is shaping up to be a more challenging year, with signs of softening demand in several U.S. markets. He pointed to Washington, D.C. as a key example, where government-related travel is slowing due to federal budget tightening. John emphasized that revenue management today is more about feel and adaptability than relying solely on hard data. He compared it to driving—requiring constant micro-adjustments rather than abrupt turns. Jamie supported this idea, adding that operators who watch their pacing, ADR, and occupancy weekly or even daily are the ones staying ahead. John mentioned that too many small operators still use a “set it and forget it” approach to pricing, which is risky in the current environment. He explained that intuition should be paired with data to make smart, timely decisions. Jamie echoed that sentiment, noting that even in tough markets, success is possible with active monitoring and responsiveness. John said the best operators act like football coaches—adjusting their strategy based on how the “game” (market) is playing out, not just on a pre-written playbook. Both speakers agreed that frequent check-ins—weekly or bi-weekly—on business performance are critical. John stressed that there's no one-size-fits-all model, and pricing strategies need to be fluid. Jamie added that being proactive instead of reactive is a key differentiator right now. They concluded that the combination of consistent data review and strategic intuition is what separates good operators from great ones. Ultimately, staying close to the numbers while understanding the story behind them is the best path forward.

After her first appearance on the show five years ago, Daryl Lang is back! Daryl is a vision-impaired runner who races with a guide and completes her training miles with her guide dog. Daryl and I  love furry friends, so this episode ended up almost an ode to her two guide dogs, Jenny and Yasha.  Daryl takes us through Jenny's retirement, what it was like to change their relationship from working to companionship, and learning the ins and outs of her new coworker, Yasha (whom she trained with at Guiding Eyes for the Blind in New York).  Daryl also became published as a contributing author to the book Run for Your Life: Lessons Learned from Going the Distance, and she shares a bit about that process as well.  Yasha and Daryl may still be fine-tuning running together, but in the meantime, Daryl has entered a new space in her running era: nothing to prove to anyone (maybe the best journey yet). She may not be worried about how much she races or what her splits are anymore, but she still has some big goals on the horizon. I have my fingers crossed that I might get to greet her at the finish line sometime soon.    Find Daryl's blog at www.blindbeader.ca Buy a copy of Run For Your Life: Lessons Learned from Going the Distance  https://bit.ly/buyrunforyourlife Donate to Guiding Eyes for the Blind: https://donate.guidingeyes.org/    -- Episode Sponsor: Canada Running Series The Beneva Spring Run Off may have already sprung, but Canada Running Series still has a ton of exciting races to help you find your next start line.

Francisco Roque De Pinho, co-founder of the Land Group, discusses in this episode the transformative potential of regenerative agriculture in South America and beyond. He shares insights into the practices that make agriculture more sustainable, the challenges faced in implementing these practices, and the importance of capital in driving change.  The discussion also touches on the role of carbon markets and the future of regenerative agriculture as it gains traction among investors and consumers alike. The Land Group has been quietly operating since 2016 from a base in Europe. It has acquired, and transformed 40,000 hectares of farmland in South America to drive a regenerative agriculture shift while delivering strong financial returns and asset appreciation. Formally launching in September of last year, with €120 million assets under management, it's now ramping up its focus on adaptive-grazing based approaches to regenerative agriculture. takeaways Regenerative agriculture focuses on improving soil quality and biodiversity. The current agricultural model is unsustainable and needs transformation. Not all regenerative practices are financially viable or scalable. Adaptive multi-paddock grazing is a scalable regenerative practice. The journey to founding the Land Group began with turning around distressed assets. Regenerative agriculture is gaining interest among investors. Carbon markets are fragmented and challenging to navigate. The future of regenerative agriculture depends on capital availability. There is growing awareness and interest in regenerative practices among farmers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Step into the whirlwind of change with this episode of Geeks Geezers Googlization: "Adaptive Perception Disorder." Guest co-hosts Eli and Casey take a Deep Dive into the eerily familiar yet subtly dangerous mindset threatening the backbone of businesses today. They delve deep into the intriguing concept of Adaptive Perception Disorder (APD), coined by GGG host and Future of Work Global Thought Leader Ira Wolfe himself. Why is exploring APD important? ADP is endemic in many companies, a mindset that causes them to believe they're on top of change when they're actually way behind. It's calling the hurricane a light breeze.  Adaptive Perception Disorder (APD) might not be the buzzword yet, but it certainly highlights a crippling blind spot in many organizations. Here are top three takeaways: Spot the Symptoms: Organizations often suffer from outdated strategy decks and vague positivity about being "on track." It's crucial to recognize these signs as they could indicate a dangerous disconnect from reality. Understanding APD Subtypes: APD manifests in various forms like Perceptual Change Deficiency and Strategic Narcissism. Identifying these can help in addressing areas where adaptation might be lagging. Build Adaptability Intelligence (AQ): It's about fostering a culture of constant learning, questioning existing knowledge, and embracing discomfort to truly evolve and stay ahead.

In this episode of Equine Assisted World, Rupert Isaacson speaks with Dr. Megan McGavern, a board-certified physician in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Megan shares the powerful story behind the founding of C.H.A.T.S.—Creative, Holistic, Adaptive, Therapeutic Solutions—and how it was born out of both professional insight and personal necessity.When her son Cole faced significant challenges, and medical professionals told her to accept that he might never regain functionality, Megan refused to give up. Drawing on her medical training, clinical experience, and deep intuition as a mother, she created C.H.A.T.S. as a space where children like Cole could thrive. C.H.A.T.S. is not about traditional therapy or horseback riding—it is about building relationship, regulation, and readiness to learn through purposeful, adaptive, equine-based engagement.What sets Megan apart is her ability to take science-based, evidence-backed practices—like Movement Method—and integrate them meaningfully into both therapeutic and clinical settings. After traveling to New Trails to learn Movement Method and Horse Boy Method firsthand from Rupert Isaacson, Megan returned home and applied what she had learned with her son Cole. The profound changes she witnessed led her to establish C.H.A.T.S. as a nonprofit organization. From there, she worked to bring Movement Method into the medical establishment, eventually helping to launch a neuroscience conference focused on the approach and its clinical applications.What You'll Learn in This Episode:From Despair to Innovation: A Mother's Mission (Starts at 01:45)The moment Megan was told to “accept the loss” regarding her son Cole's future.Why she decided to go beyond traditional care models.The founding of C.H.A.T.S. and how it gave Cole a new chance at life.Movement Method and Medical Practice (Starts at 20:10)How Megan found the Movement Method and incorporated it into her work.Practical ways she's brought it into institutional and clinical settings.The role of science—not mysticism—in shaping her therapeutic philosophy.C.H.A.T.S. in Action (Starts at 32:40)What makes C.H.A.T.S. distinct from other equine-assisted programs.Why it's focused on adaptability, safety, and authentic connection.How Megan uses observation, relationship, and responsiveness to meet each child's needs.The Dual Role: Mother and Medical Professional (Starts at 48:15)How personal experience reshaped her understanding of care.Advice for professionals who want to do more—but don't know how.Why being present often matters more than having all the answers.Memorable Moments from the Episode:Megan recounts hearing that her son might never regain function (04:02).The turning point where C.H.A.T.S. took form in response to Cole's needs (11:50).Integrating Movement Method into medical care (24:35).A reflection on letting go of "being the expert" to simply be present (53:20).Connect with Dr. Megan McGavern:

Does grazing management make a difference? Can we raise livestock and wildlife and take carbon out of the atmosphere and put it in soil on the same piece of land? Meet Peter Byck, self-described scientist wrangler and producer of Roots So Deep, a four-part documentary series that explores the world of adaptive cattle farmers and their conventional farming neighbors. Adaptive multi-paddock grazing is one of the faces of regenerative agriculture. Listen to this interview to learn about researched results from caring for land well. The Roots So Deep documentary film series shows, rather than tells, how we can have our cake and eat it too -- how grazing patterns can increase soil carbon, increase wildlife diversity, reduce water runoff and soil erosion, and improve financial health of family farms. The Art of Range Podcast is supported by the Idaho Rangeland Resources Commission; Vence, a subsidiary of Merck Animal Health; and the Western Extension Risk Management Education Center.

What if the key to innovation lies in embracing the absurd? In this episode, we sit down with David Carson, creator of Dumbify, to explore how “thinking dumber” can unlock powerful creative breakthroughs. Challenging conventional notions of identity and intelligence, we examine how embracing the fear of looking foolish fosters curiosity, adaptability, and deeper problem-solving skills.Together, we navigate the societal constraints that suppress unconventional thinking, uncovering how a beginner's mind and unresolved psychological patterns influence creativity. From Montessori classrooms to cutting-edge tech spaces, we discuss the environments that nurture curiosity, allowing us to accept uncertainty and reframe “I don't know” as a launchpad for discovery.Expanding beyond creativity, we explore the role of identity, vulnerability, and discomfort in reshaping how we approach challenges. Like an athlete refining their craft, we discover how stepping into the discomfort of new ideas can transform not just our metacognitive processes, but our sense of self. We also examine the balance between humor and harsh judgment, cooperation and competition—revealing how innovation thrives in the middle ground.Through David's insights, we uncover a metacognitive approach to creativity—one that celebrates inquiry, welcomes the unexpected, and redefines intelligence as the courage to process differently.Tune in and discover how exploring “dumb” ideas might just be the smartest move you can make.Highlights(04:03) Embracing Dumb Thinking for Success (114 Seconds)(07:52) Embracing Dumb Ideas for Mindfulness (123 Seconds)(12:06) Overcoming Fear of Looking Stupid (96 Seconds)(21:18) Montessori Education Impact on Learning (71 Seconds)(27:56) Fostering Creativity and Trust in Workplace (100 Seconds)(35:05) The Essence of Mediocrity (49 Seconds)(39:08) Creative Collaborations in Fashion Industry (56 Seconds)(53:25) Innovating Through Frustration and Context (75 Seconds)(57:36) Originality Through Diverse Perspectives (75 Seconds)(01:07:35) Approaching Problems With Fresh Eyes (55 Seconds)Chapters(00:00) - Thinking Dumber(07:29) - Embracing Mindfulness for Creative Thinking(13:19) - Reimagining Identity and Productive Thinking(17:37) - Fostering a Curious Mind(21:18) - Creating a Curious and Collaborative Environment(27:22) - Navigating Judgment for Creative Innovation(35:55) - Exploring Middle Ground and Creativity(46:11) - Navigating Self-Identity in Problem Solving(01:00:16) - Embracing Dumb Ideas for InnovationKeywordsDumbify, Thinking Dumber, Innovation, Creativity, Mindfulness, Beginner's Mind, Curiosity, Identity, Self-Improvement, Judgment, Middle Ground, Humor, Collaboration, Improv, Coopetition, Internal Family Systems, Decision-Making, Iteration, Mistakes, Business CultureJOIN US ON INSTAGRAM: @thelightinsidepodcastSUBSCRIBE: pod.link/thelightinsideCredits:Featured Guest: David CarsonExecutive Producer: Jeffrey BeseckerExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzMixing, Engineering, Production and Mastering: Aloft Media Studio

Send us a textMastering the distinction between technical and adaptive challenges is the game-changing skill that separates good coaches from transformational ones. While technical challenges require more information or step-by-step systems, adaptive challenges demand a fundamental reframing of beliefs and mindsets. The problem? Most clients (and coaches) misdiagnose which challenge they're actually facing.When you rush to provide advice without first identifying what type of challenge your client is experiencing, you're likely solving the wrong problem. Your overthinkers and perfectionists don't need more information—they need help addressing the belief systems keeping them stuck. Learning to recognize these patterns transforms your coaching approach and dramatically improves client results.The Coach Accelerator program provides a comprehensive framework for identifying challenge types and responding appropriately, regardless of your coaching specialty. Through weekly calls, real-time feedback, and a supportive community of heart-centered coaches, you'll build unshakable confidence in your coaching abilities. The six-month program combines group learning with personalized guidance, creating sustainable income without sacrificing your personal life.Ready to elevate your coaching and help clients achieve breakthroughs?
