Questions? Feedback? Send us a text!Dr. Ian F. McNeely reveals how his book "The University Unfettered" provides a dispassionate, evidence-based examination of how public universities operate, challenging both progressive and conservative narratives about higher education's supposed decline.• Universities effectively adapt to reduced state funding through competition while maintaining their public mission• Competition between institutions drives quality and focuses universities on core missions of teaching and research• Administrative growth primarily supports student success initiatives rather than unnecessary bureaucracy• Strategic thinking trumps rigid strategic planning in helping universities respond to changing circumstances• The shift toward applied knowledge and "new instrumentalism" connects theoretical learning to practical applications• University curriculums are evolving to bridge classroom learning to career preparation through internships and experiential learning• Political interventions in university operations often backfire, regardless of intentions• Public universities educate millions of students and conduct more than half the nation's research, yet receive less attention than elite private schoolsFor higher education leaders navigating today's challenges, focus on three principles: live in truth, do the work, and serve the mission.Subscribe or follow TRANSFORMED wherever you listen, to get the latest episode when it drops and hear directly from leaders and innovators in higher ed tech and digital transformation best practices.Find and follow us on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/company/higher-digital-inc

Public schools keep adding more administrators while student performance stagnates—and teachers see little benefit. In this episode of Disunion: The Government Union Report, host David Osborne sits down with Corey DeAngelis and Christos Makridis to unpack their research on how teachers unions drive administrative growth at the expense of classrooms.Corey and Christos explain why student enrollment has stayed flat while administrative staff has ballooned nearly 95% since 2000, how union incentives fuel this growth, and why teacher salaries have barely budged in decades. They also discuss the impact of right-to-work laws, the fallout from the Supreme Court's Janus decision, and the role of school choice and teacher freedom in breaking the cycle of waste and misaligned priorities.From tire-slashing intimidation tactics to billion-dollar funding battles, this conversation reveals the true cost of union power—and what it will take to put students and teachers first.

Créer son entreprise en France, c'est affronter une jungle de paperasse.En 2014, Timothée Rambaud et Pierre Aïdan décident d'attaquer le problème de front. Leur arme ? Le digital. Leur promesse ? Transformer les démarches juridiques en un parcours simple, clair, rapide.Mais leur premier produit est un fiasco : un formulaire de 40 pages à remplir pour créer une SAS, avec un prix “tout compris” affiché en TTC. Sur le papier, c'était parfait : complet, transparent, honnête. En réalité, c'était trop complexe, trop long, trop cher.De cette “claque”, Timothée tire une leçon : ce n'est pas en voulant tout couvrir qu'on simplifie. C'est en allant droit au but.Et la clé, c'est l'expérience utilisateur. Pour ça, il n'y a pas de secret : il faut observer. Se placer dans la peau du consommateur, voir ce qu'il se fait ailleurs. Pour comprendre, ce qui peut sembler parfois contre-intuitif.Dix ans plus tard, le résultat est là : 850 000 entreprises accompagnées, et un accompagnement encore plus complet avec dans leur catalogue désormais : comptabilité, compte pro, en plus du droit et de l'administratif.Dans ce podcast, Timothée raconte aussi :l'arnaque qui lui aura coûté 100 000€ seulement quelque mois après le lancementLeur acquisition par LegalZoom, pionnier américain du secteur, avortée au dernier momentson travail quotidien pour évangéliser sa solution et convaincre que la tech est fiable sur ces sujets sensiblesCôté Sista, Timothée a décidé de mettre en lumière Laurène Altmayer, cofondatrice de TikinoÀ l'animation :Thomas Benzazon, cofondateur de FeuilleBlancheKarine Wilkinson, Managing Director chez PictetUn podcast conçu par FeuilleBlanche, producteur de médias, podcasts et récits stratégiques pour les marques.À vos écouteurs

Key Takeaways: The Real Cost of Prior Authorizations [2:05] – Administrative hurdles in healthcare lead to denied claims, lost revenue, and wasted time, forcing clinicians to choose between paperwork and patient care. Empathy Drives Disruption [4:35] – Dr. Ballester’s deep empathy for patients and providers inspired her to create a solution that addresses the root frustrations in the system. AI as a Force for Good [27:05] – EasyPA’s AI platform modernizes prior authorizations, making them 10x faster and giving clinicians more time with patients, not paperwork.

Lessons learned from Very Bad Therapy. The Very Bad Therapy podcast has changed the way I think about therapy and the stories we do and do not tell. This episode is a replay from Inside Social Work with hosts Ben and Carrie.I loved this podcast and I learned so much from listening to it. It speaks to both therapists and non therapists, and it fits perfectly with the theme of This Complex Life. Therapy is difficult, messy, and complicated. I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing the hosts of the Very Bad Therapy Podcast, Ben and Carrie. We explore what therapists get wrong, how bad therapy can look different for every client, and why people so often blame themselves when therapy does not help. Ben and Carrie share what they have learned from hundreds of client stories and how those stories have changed the way they practise. We also talk about the side effects of therapy, what to do with feelings of defensiveness or imposter syndrome, the importance of asking about expectations in the first session, and how to repair when ruptures happen.Key Takeaways• Bad therapy cannot be reduced to a checklist. It depends on the individual client experience• Many clients internalise bad therapy and believe they are at fault• Therapy can have side effects and sometimes people feel worse afterwards• Mistakes will happen. Repair and humility matter more than perfection• Asking about expectations is just as important as setting goals• Therapists will feel defensive. The work is to notice it and respond with openness• Deliberate practice builds skills by focusing on one area at a time• Administrative details like fees, scheduling, and emails are part of the relationship and need careResourcesVery Bad Therapy podcast with Ben Feinman and Carrie WiitaModern Therapist Survival Guide with Kurt and KatieSentio Counselling Centre in CaliforniaLearn Psychotherapy podcast with Ben and CarrieInside Social Work with Marie VakakisIf this episode resonated with you please follow and review the show on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

That search led to adopting rolling forecasts and experimenting quarter by quarter - breaking and remaking processes along the way - to create a more nimble, data-driven, and responsive organization.In this first episode you will hear Nevine's candid stories about the messiness of transformation:What it felt like to see six months of budget work thrown in the trash.Why annual budgets—rooted in 1920s manufacturing—no longer fit today's fast-paced business environment.How rolling forecasts differ from “mini-budgets” and why many companies get them wrong.The cultural and change management challenges that arise when finance stops dictating numbers and starts empowering managers to decide in real time.How aligning finance with agile IT practices unlocked a “spiral of goodness” across the organization.Nevine's insights highlight that there's no one-size-fits-all playbook for financial agility. Instead, transformation requires experimentation, iteration, and courage to question the sacred cows of yearly budgets. Her experiences demonstrate how finance - often seen as the last function to change - can become a catalyst for business agility, resilience, and innovation.About Nevine White:Beginning her 35-year career in telecom engineering, Nevine moved on to leading the FP&A function for TW Telecom for two decades. There she championed powerful changes in financial planning that enabled an agile and effective management structure by eliminating traditional budgets. After the sale of the company, Nevine continued this work with Live Future Ready, leveraging her experience to support organizations in their financial transformation efforts across various industries. In 2019, Nevine joined Hargray Communications Group as the VP Accounting, before taking on building the Finance and Administrative functions for a broadband start-up. She is currently the Senior Vice President of Finance at Greater Technology Together, a leading network and security as a service firm. Recognized for her experience in finance agility and building effective teams, she has been featured at conferences and on podcasts, and enjoys sharing her learnings and experiences with all who are seeking to meaningfully change and enable their teams. You can follow Nevine on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/nevinewhite/Podcast music courtesy of www.purple-planet.comVisit us at https://www.ouragiletales.com/about
