How do you balance being a practitioner and an academic? In this episode, Bill Sherman talks with Dr. Robert Gordon, interim department chair for analytics, economics, and finance at American Public University about his unique journey from the world of cruise ships and supply chain to academia, research, and thought leadership. Robert shares his experience moving from practitioner to academic, and now returning to bridge the gap between the two. His expertise in supply chain management, particularly in the maritime and cruise industries, provided the foundation for a shift into research and publishing that impacted both academia and industry. Robert's research on virtual teams and complexity theory was initially seen as niche, but when the pandemic hit, his work became highly relevant. The shift to remote work made his insights on virtual teams essential reading. He highlights the importance of staying connected to practitioners through conversations and continuous publishing to keep his research relevant. Robert's story is a reminder that thought leadership is not a static process. It's about continually evolving, reflecting, and bridging the gap between theory and practice. Three Key Takeaways: • Bridging the Gap Between Academia and Industry: Robert Gordon emphasizes the importance of staying connected to practitioners while conducting academic research, ensuring his work remains relevant and actionable in real-world settings. • The Power of Reflection in Thought Leadership: Robert highlights how reflecting on past work is crucial for growth, allowing him to evolve his ideas, improve his writing, and adapt to the changing needs of his audience. • Virtual Teams and Complexity Theory Gaining Relevance: What was once considered niche research became vital during the pandemic, as organizations around the world shifted to remote work, validating the importance of anticipating future trends in research. Robert knows the importance of academic research to practitioners.  In this video Thought Leadership Leverage CEO Peter Winick explains how you can use academic research to build your thought leadership platform!

What's the most important element of leadership? If you haven't answered this question for yourself it's too easy to get distracted. Leaders are the busiest people on the planet, and it's not realistic to chase every new leadership theory out there. Instead prioritize developing the one that will get you the furthest in your leadership journey and drive your success. You can't be a great leader if you don't have perspective. Being able to look at things from different points of view from your employees, customers, and even your competition is the difference between success and failure. Perspective allows you to make the right decisions and inspire others to trust you.  I host Nuno Fernandes, President of American Public University System, where he shares his experience living in 9 different countries and how that has helped shape his ability to lead effectively. American Public University System delivers high quality, affordable and workforce relevant higher education to adult learners of all backgrounds through two different institutions: American Public University and American Military University. They rank in the top 10% for return on educational investment compared to 4,500 colleges and universities nationwide, according to the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce report, https://cew.georgetown.edu/cew-reports/roi2022/ (Ranking 4,500 Colleges by ROI (2022)). APUS ranks as them as the https://www-zdnet-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.zdnet.com/google-amp/education/best-online-colleges-for-working-adults/ (best online college for working adults), according to ZDNet (June 2022). Nuno has a range of leadership and business experience in higher ed and beyond, including as President and CEO of Latin America's largest online program manager (OPM), and one of the top 3 globally in number of managed students, Ilumno. He is motivated by delivering high quality programs and services that will positively impact the lives of students and their communities.

Dennis Doyle on "Illinois Regiments at Gettysburg" December 12th, 2021 During the Battle of Gettysburg (July 1-3, 1863), there were three Illinois Regiments that served in the Army of Potomac. Those regiments were the 8th and 12th Illinois Cavalry and the 82nd Infantry Regiment, and a total of 1,027 men served during the Battle of Gettysburg. The three Illinois regiments suffered nine men killed during the battle, thirty-four men were wounded and ninety-six men were either missing or captured during the battle. The total strength of the Army of Potomac was estimated at 90,000 men and although Illinois contributed a small number to the Army of Potomac, they served with distinction and devotion during the three-day battle. Both the 8th and 12th Illinois Cavalry would serve well on the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg, as Lt. Marcellus Jones would fire the first shot of the battle on the morning of July 1. The two regiments would later retreat through Gettysburg and protected the Army of Potomac's left flank on Cemetery Hill on the evening of July 1 and the morning of July 2. Also present was the 82nd Illinois Regiment, which was comprised of mostly German-born soldiers and many who were recruited from Chicago. Under the overall command of Maj. Gen. O. O. Howard, the 82nd Illinois Regiment would serve in the 11th Corp. On Dec. 12th Professor Dennis Doyle will present his thoughts on the Illinois Regiments at Gettysburg. Dennis Doyle earned his BA from Colorado State University and his MA in American History from American Public University. Since 1999 he has taught History and Sociology at Joliet Jr. College, in Joliet Illinois. Professor Doyle is President of the South Suburban Civil War Round Table, and Treasurer of the Chicago CWRT.
