In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Dr. David Bausch über die neue Arbeitswelt – und darüber, warum viele Menschen und Organisationen zunehmend erschöpft wirken. Ausgangspunkt unseres Gesprächs ist sein neues Buch „Das Ende der Arbeitswelt, wie wir sie kannten“. Wir sprechen über Change-Müdigkeit, hybride Zusammenarbeit, psychologische Sicherheit und die Frage, warum moderne Arbeit nicht weniger, sondern mehr Führung braucht. David beschreibt dabei seine „Big Five of Human Work“: Führung, mentale Gesundheit, Vielfalt & Inklusion, Lernen & Entwicklung sowie Organisationskultur. Besonders spannend fand ich seinen Gedanken, dass viele Unternehmen versuchen, Komplexität mit noch mehr Komplexität zu beantworten – und dabei oft genau die menschlichen Faktoren aus dem Blick verlieren, die Zusammenarbeit überhaupt erst tragfähig machen. Ein Gespräch über Führung, Kultur und die Frage, wie wir in einer zunehmend digitalen und beschleunigten Arbeitswelt menschlich bleiben können.profilingvalues Mediathek: https://podcast.profilingvalues.com Das Ende der Arbeitswelt, wie wir sie kannten: Die fünf Handlungsfelder für Unternehmen mit Zukunft (Haufe Fachbuch) - Bausch, David - Amazon.de: BücherDas Ende der Arbeitswelt, wie wir sie kannten: Die fünf Handlungsfelder für Unternehmen mit Zukunft (Hörbuch-Download): Dr. David Bausch, Marion Busch, Storyble: Amazon.de: BücherLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-david-bausch-4098a01ba/Linkedin Profil Dr. Ulrich Vogel: https://de.linkedin.com/in/ulrich-vogel-profilingvaluesprofilingvalues Website: https://www.profilingvalues.comAutorenseite Dr. Uli Vogel: https://uli-vogel.com/Linkedin Profil profilingvalues: https://de.linkedin.com/company/profiling-values?trk=public_profile_topcard-current-companyprofilingvalues Blog: https://profilingvalues.com/ueber-uns/pv-blog/Keywords: Arbeitswelt, hybride Arbeit, Führung, psychologische Sicherheit, Organisationskultur, mentale Gesundheit, Change-Müdigkeit, New Work, Lernen und Entwicklung, Zusammenarbeit, Leadership, Werte, Transformation

How do you bridge the divide between how leaders show up and what teams truly want? On this week's episode of the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I sit down with Allison Howell, CEO of Hogan Assessments, to discuss their Leadership Divide Global Report, which draws on the responses from 9,794 employees across 25 countries. The findings challenge the conventional myths about what makes a great leader, and why charisma and ambition are not enough.Allison Howell pulls back the curtain on “emergent” versus “effective” leadership, sharing why the traits that get people promoted often undermine team success. We also dive into one of the other key findings; why the attributes executives display don't match what employees crave, with nearly zero overlap. Critical leadership qualities such as cultivating trust, integrity, and humility, build both teams and organizations up, no matter the cultural context. She also shares concrete examples of the most common derailers in Hogan's research: behaviors that fast-track promotions but quietly undermine trust and morale. Allison also offers a candid look at strategic self-awareness, the value of global perspective, and practical ways any organization can move from bias to balanced judgment.If you're a leader, or an aspiring one, this episode delivers the research and real-world tactics you need to inspire true followership and foster organizational excellence in an era of rapid change.What You'll Learn- The uncomfortable truth about reputation versus identity (and which one actually runs your career).- Emergence versus effectiveness: why the leaders who get promoted aren't the ones teams need.- Why your greatest strength can also become a derailer.- The global trust crisis and the surprising place leaders are best positioned to rebuild it.- Accountability: why employees are saying "you first." - Personality is climate, behavior is weather; what that means for your ability to change.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) – What is Leadership?(03:57) - Reputation Versus Identity in Leadership Assessment(06:45) - The Leadership Divide: Key Findings and Surprises(10:49) - Leadership Emergence vs. Leadership Effectiveness(13:08) - Behaviors That Get Leaders Promoted (But Hurt Teams)(20:20) - Closing the Leadership Gap: Individual and Organizational Solutions(28:06) - Balancing Ambition, Confidence, and Humility(34:59) - Can Leadership Skills Be Developed?(38:10) - The Current Context of Leadership Expectations(45:52) - Cultural Differences in Leadership PreferencesKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Hogan Assessments, Personality Assessment, Team Performance, Reputation vs Identity, Emergent Leadership, Leadership Gap, Charismatic Leadership, Strategic Self-Awareness, Leadership Development, Accountability, Integrity, Trust in Leadership, Communication Skills, Humility, Emotional Self-Regulation, Dark Side of Personality, 360 feedback, Global Leadership Trends, Data-Driven Selection, Cross-Cultural Leadership Differences, CEO Success

A new service aims to get ADHD assessments done more quickly and at less cost than from traditional clinics. ADHD Simple offers appointments in as little as three weeks, by holding online consultations. New rules for prescribing stimulant medication and diagnosing the condition came into effect this year. Company founder and chief executive, Cameron Houston, says they combine tech and people-power to undercut the competition. "We use some very clever AI technologies, for example, that summarise some of their work - that just makes it faster and it makes it easier for them to see patients faster."

Im zweiten Teil dieser Doppelfolge geht es um die systemische Wertedimension nach Robert S. Hartman — also um den Einfluss von Hierarchien, Status, Rollen, Zugehörigkeit und organisationalen Strukturen auf unsere Wahrnehmung von Menschen.Warum wirken Titel oft kompetenter als Verhalten?Weshalb erzeugen Systeme ihre eigenen Wahrheiten?Und wie entstehen daraus kollektive Verzerrungen und Fehlurteile?Ich spreche über typische systemische Beobachtungsfehler wie Authority Bias, Status Bias, Confirmation Bias oder Ingroup Bias — und darüber, warum viele Organisationen ihre eigenen Narrative stabilisieren, ohne es zu bemerken.Zum Schluss führe ich die menschliche, praktische und systemische Wertedimension zusammen und zeige, warum gute Diagnostik keine Schubladen erzeugen sollte — sondern eine Gegenperspektive zu unseren eigenen Verzerrungen sein kann.Eine Folge über Wahrnehmung, Blindstellen, Systeme — und die Herausforderung, Menschen möglichst präzise zu beobachten.profilingvalues Mediathek: https://podcast.profilingvalues.comFolie 1: Systemische_Wertedimension_Wahrnehmungsverzerrungen.pptxFolie 2: Wertedimension_Gesamtuebersicht_1.pptxLinkedin Profil Dr. Ulrich Vogel: https://de.linkedin.com/in/ulrich-vogel-profilingvaluesprofilingvalues Website: https://www.profilingvalues.comAutorenseite Dr. Uli Vogel: https://uli-vogel.com/Linkedin Profil profilingvalues: https://de.linkedin.com/company/profiling-values?trk=public_profile_topcard-current-companyprofilingvalues Blog: https://profilingvalues.com/ueber-uns/pv-blog/Keywords: Fehlurteile, Wahrnehmungsverzerrungen, Biases, systemische Biases, Authority Bias, Status Bias, Confirmation Bias, Ingroup Bias, Framing Effect, Robert S.

#252Have you ever wondered whether your tests, quizzes or assessments truly measure what your students can do with the language, or are they just looking at what students can memorize or explain about the language? In this episode we're diving into Integrated Performance Assessments, or IPAs, an effective way to assess how students are actually able to use the grammar, vocabulary and cultural understanding. An IPA assesses how students engage with the language through the interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational modes. If you've been working toward proficiency-based instruction and looking for assessments that align with those goals, this episode will help you with that.Topics in this Episode: Many teachers are moving toward proficiency-based instruction, but assessment often remains disconnected from communication goals.If our goal is communication, then assessment should provide opportunities for students to communicate.What is an Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA)? IPAs assess students through the three modes of communication: Interpretive, Interpersonal, PresentationalThe three tasks are connected rather than separate activities.Students move through a sequence that mirrors real-world communication: Receive information, Discuss information, Share informationAn IPA focuses on what students can do with language rather than how many grammar rules they can identify.Ready For Tomorrow Quick Win Course: Integrated Performance Assessments.A Few Ways We Can Work Together:Ready For Tomorrow Quick Win PD for Individual TeachersOn-Site or Virtual Workshops for Language DepartmentsSelf-Paced Program for For Language DepartmentsConnect With Me & The World Language Classroom Community:Website: wlclassrom.comInstagram:  @wlclassroomFacebook Group: World Language ClassroomFacebook:  /wlclassroomLinkedIn: Joshua CabralBluesky: /wlclassroom.bsky.sociaX (Twitter):  @wlclassroomThreads: @wlclassroomSend me a text and let me know your thoughts on this episode or the podcast.

In this episode, Josh Hohbein of CentrexIT breaks down a practical, MSP-centric approach to risk assessments that moves beyond complex, consultant-driven reports and toward clear, actionable business outcomes. He shares how combining vulnerability scans, client interviews, and system configuration reviews, anchored in a cyber maturity model, helps MSPs translate technical findings into meaningful risk conversations, especially during onboarding. The discussion highlights the importance of ownership, communication, and collaboration in managing inherited client risk, while previewing a live demonstration session at Pack State Beyond, designed to equip MSPs with repeatable frameworks they can own. Ultimately, the episode reinforces that effective risk assessments aren't about identifying more issues; they're about enabling better decisions, strengthening governance, and driving measurable security maturity.

Coach Rob Jacobs on Program Design: Assessments, Nervous System State, and Making Training Actually StickTim Caron hosts Coach Rob Jacobs on the Performance Health Podcast to discuss what makes a “good program,” emphasizing the importance of selecting the right inputs to achieve the desired outputs. Rob outlines his programming workflow: starting with a neural performance map questionnaire to gauge motivation and nervous system stress, followed by a biomechanical assessment that directly informs exercise selection, splits, and cycle design, then narrowing ideals to practical constraints before later adding blood work. They unpack how to interpret failed table tests, when to temporarily correct limitations, and why changes must be reinforced with deliberate strengthening at high frequency. Rob explains balancing timelines, fixing key limiting factors, progressing load/sets/intensity, using consolidation or deload strategies when performance drops, and evaluating effectiveness through phase-to-phase testing and exercise sequencing. 00:00 Show Intro and Resources01:07 Rob Programming Workflow01:25 Assessments That Drive Training03:38 Interpreting Failed Tests07:03 Quick Fixes vs Lasting Change11:21 Unilateral Blocks and Timelines15:19 Balancing Goals and Constraints16:47 Case Study Fix the Weak Link20:15 Progress Tracking and Adjustments23:00 Load vs Intensity Explained24:44 Tracking Load Variables25:49 When Progress Stalls26:51 Consolidation Week Tactics28:23 Sending Athletes Home29:23 Avoiding Coach Bias31:17 Using Data To Pivot33:10 Modifying Hepburn Method35:00 Diagnosing Volume Vs Intensity38:04 Exercise Variation Strategy38:54 Measuring Program Effectiveness40:48 Testing GPP To SPP Carryover43:34 Realistic Progress Expectations44:23 Course Updates And Wrap Up

Many top-ranked MBA programs in Europe, Asia, Canada, and Australia actively encourage applicants to connect with admissions teams before submitting an application. But most applicants don't know this - or are too nervous to reach out.Should you contact admissions before you're ready? What if you haven't taken the GMAT yet, or your resume isn't polished? And how do you make sure the conversation is actually useful for both sides?In this episode, Darren invites Admissions Directors from three top-ranked programs - IESE (Spain), CUHK (Hong Kong), and AGSM (Australia) - to guide you on how to approach these early conversations, what to expect, and how to use them to strengthen your application.If you're considering reaching out to an MBA admissions team before applying, listen to this first.TopicsIntroduction (0:00)What is an MBA Pre-Assessment? with Roanne Law, CUHK MBA (3:15)How to Engage Early - Tips & Expectations with Patrik Wallen, IESE MBA (11:15)Addressing Common Concerns About Pre-Assessments with Kenneth Cheung, AGSM MBA (18:30)Show NotesCUHK MBAIESE MBAAGSM MBAGet pre-assessed by top MBA programs#116 Interacting with MBA Admissions Officers at Events#192 MBA Coffee Chats: Thoughtful Advice on How to Get the Most Out of Your MBA with Adam Putterman, Kellogg MMM '19Resources for MBA ApplicantsGet free school selection help at Touch MBAGet pre-assessed by top international MBA programsOur favorite MBA application tools (after advising 4,000 applicants)

On the Performance Health Podcast, Tim Caron talks with Cal State Fullerton coach Alex Curro about his programming process and department approach, using men's basketball as a primary example. Curro explains how he starts with broad assessments (movement, body composition, strength testing, velocity-based training, and frequent force-plate monitoring) but prioritizes trend data over one-time pre/post tests to account for real-world variability. He discusses using normative force-plate data to guide goals, adjusting training based on fatigue patterns and season demands, and leveraging VBT to control rep quality and “earn” progression, while acknowledging limitations when VBT can't be applied to certain implements. They cover managing remote training by maximizing guaranteed supervised time, keeping off-campus programs simple and low-friction, and choosing advanced methods only when athletes can execute and understand them. Curro also reflects on how being a director changes programming oversight, staff evaluation, KPI selection by training phase, and the importance of communication, translation of sport-coach needs, relationships, and winning.

Employers love the idea of a hiring tool that does the hard work for them — a test that surfaces the right candidate before the interview even starts. But the gap between a useful assessment and a discrimination claim is narrower than most HR leaders realize, and in Massachusetts, the ground keeps shifting underneath them.This month, Terry Cook and Sarah Piscatelli walk Pete through the real stakes of pre-hiring assessments: what counts as job-related, what the EEOC has already shut down, and why the rise of AI-powered video interviews is creating a brand-new category of legal exposure. If your hiring process leans on any kind of test — physical, technical, behavioral, or otherwise — this is the conversation to hear before you run another candidate through it.Links & NotesAIM members can reach the HR Helpline at 800-470-6277 or helpline@aimnet.org for inquiries Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (EST).

A survivors' advocate is welcoming the Government's proposal to scrap 'good character' sentencing considerations for sexual offenders. National's Justice spokesperson Paul Goldsmith has announced the party will prohibit the practice at sentencing. He says the assessments only serve the interests of offenders and rarely the victims. Chief Victims Advisor Ruth Money says it's a problem for victims to sit in court and hear these 'good character' assessments. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis sits down with Kevin — a Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) with deep experience in hospice/oncology floors, Level I trauma ICUs and ERs, military nursing, and years in austere environments, including a Role III in Baghdad. Kevin delivers straight talk on the most overlooked, time-consuming, and life-saving phase of Prolonged Field Care: nursing care.He answers the exact question every medic wants to know: When does nursing actually start? Then he walks through the full reality of what “nursing” means in the field — from relentless data gathering and charting, to turning patients, pulmonary toileting, skin care, oral care, managing the mess (yes, including bowel movements on litters), and preventing the downstream killers like pressure ulcers, ventilator-associated pneumonia, and sepsis that can undo even perfect damage-control surgery.You'll get practical austere hacks (including Kevin's legendary Barbasol shaving cream trick), training advice that actually works, how to know when the patient is truly stable, when to escalate to a provider, and why evacuation must remain the primary plan — not prolonged field care.Key Takeaways:PFC nursing starts the moment life-saving interventions (hemorrhage control, surgery, cric, chest tubes, etc.) are complete and the patient is stabilized — not during the gunfight or initial resuscitation.Skin care and turning patients prevents deadly complications — pressure ulcers, infections, and sepsis can kill a patient with otherwise survivable injuries.Austere game-changer: Barbasol shaving cream + washcloths cuts through blood, stool, grease, and debris without drying out skin. Bring cheap bottles.First hour priorities: frequent vitals/assessments, confirm stability, get fluids/sedation/maintenance running, then move to the full nursing checklist.Set clear “left and right limits” / parameters for teammates or non-nurses so you can actually rest, rearm, or plan the next mission.Best training: Work real ICU/floor shifts (especially weekends when staffing is thin) — mannequins and sims don't teach the time sink or the “why.”Mindset shift: Move from high-speed, high-adrenaline interventions to the “boring but essential” maintenance phase. If it feels boring, you're probably doing it right.Strategic reality: Evacuation (Medevac or CasEvac) should stay the P in your PACE plan. Prolonged field care with high casualty volumes and limited resources is an enormous time and math problem — history (WWII South Pacific, etc.) proves it.Chapters:01:50 – When Does Prolonged Field Care Nursing Actually Start?04:39 – The Foundation: Data Gathering, Assessments & Charting07:03 – The Full Laundry List of Bedside Nursing Interventions09:26 – How to Train Real Nursing Care (ICU Shifts Beat Mannequins)11:46 – The Critical First Hour: Settling In & Confirming Stability14:04 – Head-to-Toe Assessment, Pulmonary Toileting, Oral Care & Eye Care16:16 – Real Talk: Skin Care, Turning Patients, Bowel Movements & Preventing Ulcers/Sepsis20:50 – How Long Until the Patient Is Truly Stable?

Text us your thoughts!Let's talk about state assessments. These exams carry enormous weight. They influence school ratings, district decisions, curriculum, teacher evaluations, and often, whether students feel successful or not. They're designed to measure learning. To provide accountability. To ensure standards are met. But is that what we're really getting from these tests? Is the way we assess learning narrowing instruction, distorting priorities, and sending the wrong message about what it means to truly understand mathematics? Today's Hot Seat guests are making a bold argument: that what we are currently doing isn't what's best. That we can do better.

Coach Joe Padula on Athlete Archetypes, Force Plates, and Set-Rep Best Programming (OU Softball & Women's Golf)Tim Caron introduces an episode of the Performance Health Podcast featuring University of Oklahoma coach Joe Padula, then they discuss Padula's programming process for new teams by preparing for the least-prepared athlete while still individualizing through movement archetypes, body types, and simple screens like the overhead squat. They explore how concepts like infrasternal angle and expansion/compression can inform exercise selection without overcomplicating coaching, using softball and women's golf examples and force-plate insights such as CMJ depth, eccentric braking, impulse, and propulsive power. Padula explains balancing absolute load with rep quality, avoiding compensations, and organizing athletes into training buckets while educating them with data. He details the set-rep best method to keep effort high but exertion low in-season to preserve bar speed and power, using plyos and sprinting for eccentric stimulus, and evaluating success via KPIs, health, engagement, and on-field performance.00:00 Podcast Intro and Guest01:06 Programming Process Overview02:09 Assessments and Movement Archetypes05:01 ISA Model and Sport Differences12:45 Force Plates and Physical Qualities16:24 Exercise Selection and Athlete Buy In20:55 In Season Loading Philosophy26:22 Set Rep Best Method Explained31:14 Effort Versus Exertion33:02 Power Expression In Season33:57 Time Crunch And Logistics35:15 Eccentrics Through Plyos37:44 Sprinting Builds Hamstrings39:54 Protecting Weight Room Time41:22 Measuring Program Success45:42 Winning And Accountability48:02 Sport Specific Indicators52:10 Self Appraisal And Balance56:20 Closing Thoughts And Thanks

What actually happens in a domestic violence assessment? And how do you know if you even need one?In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Lisa Fontes, an expert in coercive control and domestic violence assessments, to talk about something many survivors are navigating but don't fully understand — how these evaluations and expert witnesses show up in family court.If you've ever been told to “get an expert” or wondered if that would help your case, this conversation will give you a clearer picture of what that actually means and when it might (and might not) be helpful.We also talk about the reality that many survivors face in family court — where experiences like coercive control, sexual coercion, and post-separation abuse are often misunderstood, minimized, or not given the weight they deserve.Inside this episode, we talk about:• What a domestic violence or coercive control assessment actually looks like • The difference between an expert witness and a subject matter expert • When an expert can be helpful in family court — and when they may not be necessary • Why self-report assessments can be unreliable in abuse cases • How coercive control and sexual abuse often go unrecognized in legal settings • What “manufactured” claims and “provoke and record” tactics can look like • The misuse of the term “parental alienation” and how it shows up in court • Why post-separation abuse is often missed — and why that matters • How to evaluate whether an expert witness is actually qualified • The growing trend of survivors pursuing civil cases for damagesThis episode is especially relevant if you are navigating family court, dealing with custody issues, or trying to figure out how to advocate for yourself in systems that may not fully understand abuse.Join the Rising Beyond Community today.

Treasury assessments play a critical role in evaluating and improving treasury operations. In this discussion, Paul Galloway of Strategic Treasurer outlines key assessment types, including broad treasury reviews, bank structure analysis, treasury technology evaluations, and payment security assessments, while also highlighting growing priorities such as cash forecasting, risk management, and bank fee analysis amid evolving fraud threats. This episode also provides practical guidance on expected outcomes, how to prioritize improvements, and why treasury assessments should be conducted on an ongoing, periodic basis rather than as one-time efforts.

Podcast: Energy TalksEpisode: #125: OT Cybersecurity Risk Assessments in the Power IndustryPub date: 2026-04-30Get Podcast Transcript →powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarizationDiscover methods, findings, and lessons directly from the energy industry In this episode of Energy Talks, host **Simon Rommer **speaks with his colleague Jaron Stammler, OT Cybersecurity Consultant at OMICRON, about how OT cybersecurity risk assessments are conducted in the power industry. Drawing from current experiences in substations and battery energy storage systems (BESS), they walk through how assessments are initiated, structured, and executed in practice. The discussion also highlights the gap between theory and reality, especially when assessments are performed late in project lifecycles due to regulatory or project constraints. Jaron explains the fundamentals of the IEC 62443-3-2 risk assessment process, including system scoping, risk identification, and zone and conduit modeling, while also addressing common challenges such as missing documentation and limited stakeholder availability. Simon and Jaron also emphasize how cybersecurity is an ongoing process and that effective assessments provide actionable insights, prioritized risks, and practical mitigation strategies tailored to each project.

On the Predictable Revenue Podcast, Collin Stewart sat down with Gianluca Ferremi, CEO and Co-founder of WisePath, to unpack a deceptively simple question: why do so many hires fail?  Gianluca's answer challenges the default narrative. Nearly half of new hires don't work out, and most failures have nothing to do with technical ability. This points to a deeper issue: It's not a talent problem, it's a measurement problem. Because if you can't measure how people actually behave, you can't predict how they'll perform. Highlights include: The Origin of WisePath (13:55), Market Validation and Customer Adoption (25:53), First Customers and Market Entry Strategy (27:53), And more...

Self-awareness is an important and often overlooked skill in a lawyer's toolkit. Personality and behavioral assessments like DISC can be used in a practical, grounded way to help lawyers better understand their strengths, spot blind spots, improve communication, and show up more effectively with clients, colleagues, and prospects. To unpack how these tools can be used well (and where they can be misused), Steve is joined in this episode by John Kormanik, a Professional Certified Coach who works with lawyers around the world and the author of Break the Law: A Story of a Reimagined Career and a Reclaimed Life. Before launching his coaching practice, John spent more than 20 years as a practicing attorney, including serving as a Deputy Attorney General, working in private practice, and owning and leading his own law firm for 16 years. This experience informs his practical approach to helping lawyers lead with intention. Key Takeaways: Self-awareness is crucial for lawyers to enhance leadership and client relationships. DISC assessments help improve communication within legal teams. Understanding natural vs. adapted states can help overcome fixed mindsets. Cultural experiences can significantly influence communication styles. Networking and continuous personal evolution are vital for career success. Introverts and extroverts can expand their influence by being authentic. Assessments are tools for awareness, not fixed definitions of personality.

“By the time you dot the final I's and cross the final T's, the assessment is already out of date.”— Taylor SullivanEpisode OverviewIn this episode I'm joined by rising I/O rockstar Taylor Sullivan, IO psychologist and the architect of Workera's assessment strategy. With Taylor's guidance Workera, a verified skills intelligence platform, is doing something most of the industry is still afraid to do: going all in on using AI to build, deliver, and validate AI-based assessments.Taylor and I (and my AI co-host Mayda Tokens) dig into how this actually works, why it's scientifically defensible, and why the industry needs to stop waiting and start moving.Topics Discussed & Key Insights1. Traditional Assessment Development Is Already BrokenBy the time a traditional assessment clears all the I-dotting and T-crossing, it's often already out of date. AI changes that — enabling dynamic content generation, richer construct understanding, and real-time iteration that keeps pace with how work actually evolves.2. Codifying Measurement Science Into a Multi-Agent SystemWorkera didn't just bolt AI onto existing processes. They embedded IO psychology's core principles — evidence-centered design, validity frameworks, job analysis — directly into a multi-agent authoring system. Experts define the standards. Agents execute to those standards. The science drives the machine, not the other way around.Here's a brief sketch of how it works in practice* Define the purpose — Tell the agent what you're measuring and why. This grounds everything that follows.* Extract the construct — The agent probes the skill space using critical incident techniques, identifying what great performance actually looks like.* Design the assessment — The agent selects question formats (multiple choice, drag and drop, voice interaction, sequencing) based on what will best elicit evidence of the skill.* Automated quality review — Before anything goes live, the system checks for bias, language issues, and content alignment to the original skill definition.* Monitor and improve — Once deployed, the agent tracks response patterns, flags problems, and learns from score appeals adjudicated by humans.The skill domain is flexible — it works for cheeseburgers or cybersecurity. The methodology behind it is the same either way.3. The “Harness” — Why This Is SafeThe key to responsible agentic AI isn't less autonomy — it's a well-designed harness (the constrained ecosystem where the agents do their thing). Human experts define what good looks like, set quality thresholds, and build in escalation points. The agents work within those constraints and loop back when they hit uncertainty. As Taylor puts it: “It's not running completely autonomously unchecked.”4. This Is About Development, Not Just HiringWorkera's primary focus is post-hire — workforce development, upskilling, and learning. Once an assessment identifies verified gaps in a person's skills, the platform connects those gaps directly to personalized learning plans, curating from an organization's existing content library. Two people can get the same score on an assessment and walk away with completely different development paths based on their specific pattern of strengths and gaps.5. Verified Skills Intelligence — What It Actually MeansIn a world where AI can write a perfect resume and LinkedIn profile for anyone, credentials are noise. Verified skills intelligence cuts through that — using assessment to generate actual evidence of what someone can do, fit for the stakes of the decision being made.Final TakeawayThe tools to move beyond multiple choice, beyond static assessments, and beyond slow validation cycles exist today. The bottleneck isn't technology — it's the will to trust well-designed systems. When the science is built into the machine from the start, speed and rigor aren't in conflict. They're the same thing.

As another homeschool year draws to a close, it's tempting to simply exhale, set the books aside, and let all thoughts of structured learning drift away on the spring breeze. After all, by the time April and May roll around, homeschooling parents everywhere are due for a break. In this episode of the podcast, we explore how this season is also a powerful time to reflect, regroup, and get inspired for the year ahead.   Key Takeaways Reflect with Confidence: Ditch the "did we do enough?" guilt—focus on what worked, what didn't, and what truly lit your child up. Curriculum Is a Tool, Not the Boss: The best curriculum is the one you'll actually use, adapts to your family, and fits your child, not the flashiest or priciest option. Embrace Flexibility: Every year—and every kid—is different. Adjust your plans, pace, and expectations to match where your kids are right now. Prioritize Connection Over Perfection: Real learning happens through relationship, curiosity, and engagement, not just finishing every page or project. Trust Your Expertise: You know your child better than any expert or catalog. Tune in to your instincts—you're the right person for this job.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 19th and 20th century existentialist philosopher Lev Shestov's book "All Things Are Possible" It focuses specifically on his interpretation and assessment of the Russian author Leo Tolstoy, who Shestov says is much more interesting in his vices and inconsistencies than in his virtues. Tolstoy was someone who didn't simply write but attempted to live out his views on life, not always with great success, and struggled against ideas and worries most other people can put aside.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 19th and 20th century existentialist philosopher Lev Shestov's book "All Things Are Possible" It focuses specifically on his references to and evaluation of Anton Chekhov, who Shestov credits with a more realistic attitude towards philosophies than many other writers, namely that they are very helpful for characters to have and to articulate, but less so for the writer or person himself.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!You can take classes six days a week, sweat through your clothes, and still feel stuck when you want bigger glutes, a tighter waist, and that athletic “trained” look. We're talking about the classic cardio bunny: the ClassPass regular who does Pilates, yoga, and body pump style workouts, yet never gets the overload needed for real muscle growth. The fix is not more exhaustion. The fix is a better assessment and a plan that matches the goal. We walk through how we run the initial consultation like pros: PAR-Q basics, training history, and the most important part, finding the real “why” behind the goal. We also cover SMART goals that are specific, measurable, realistic, and tied to a timeline that makes sense. If the client says they want to lose weight and build glutes, we explain how body recomposition actually works, why the scale can lie, and what to track instead, including measurements and strength standards. Then we take it to the gym floor with a clear assessment workout blueprint built around the movements that drive glute hypertrophy and total-body strength: loaded reverse lunges, RDL hinge work, chin-up progressions, and hip thrust or goblet options depending on skill and equipment. Finally, we get real about the business side of personal training: presenting packages calmly, handling “too expensive,” and navigating “I need to talk to my husband” with a human conversation rooted in value, emotion, and results.
