From the Pentagon on 9/11 to keeping service members safe through timely innovation, Dave Harden ‘95 embodies what it means to run toward the fire. SUMMARY In this episode of Long Blue Leadership with host Lt. Col. (Ret.) Naviere Walkewicz '99, hear how adversity, gratitude and courage forged a leader others would follow anywhere. From his harrowing experience during the 9/11 attacks to overcoming childhood adversity and pioneering innovation in the Air Force, Dave Harden shares practical lessons on gratitude, resilience and the importance of running toward challenges rather than away from them. The conversation emphasizes that true leadership is forged in the fire of adversity and that gratitude can transform hardship into fuel for growth. SHARE THIS EPISODE LINKEDIN | FACEBOOK DAVE'S LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Leadership is about how we respond in crisis. Everyone has a personal story of 9/11. Muscle memory from training prepares us for challenges. Gratitude shifts our perspective from burden to opportunity. Looking up fosters hope and gratitude. Gratitude can transform lives and relationships. Innovation is crucial for effective leadership. Courage is a choice we make every day. Hardships prepare us for future leadership roles. True leaders run toward the fire, not away from it.

Col. (Ret.) Naviere Walkewicz '99 Col. Naviere Walkewicz 0:12 Welcome to Long Blue Leadership, where we explore the lessons of leadership through the lives and stories of Air Force Academy graduates. I'm your host, Naviere Walkewicz, Class of '99. My guest today is Dave Harden, Class of 1995. Dave is widely accepted in the Long Blue Line community for his leadership, service, business acumen and his willingness to run toward the fire. Dave Harden 0:35 When bad things are happening and fires are burning around you, you won't even think for a second, “I need to help someone. I need to do the thing.” Naviere Walkewicz 0:46 From his time as a C-17 pilot to his work at the Pentagon and in the private sector, David's faced both personal and professional moments that shaped not just his career, but his philosophy of leadership. In our conversation, we'll talk about three transformative moments in his journey — from being just 400 feet away from impact during the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon, to overcoming hardships in his childhood, to his work pioneering innovation at the highest levels in government and business. Along the way, we'll hear about the meaning behind his call sign, “Big D,” and engage in practical leadership lessons that have transformed his life and can transform yours. This is a conversation for cadets, aspiring leaders, seasoned business professionals and lifelong learners alike, because leadership isn't just about what we do; it's how we respond when the fire is burning right in front of us. Dave, welcome to Long Blue Leadership. Dave Harden 1:38 Thanks for having me on today. I'm excited to be here. Naviere Walkewicz 1:41 We are so excited, and I think this is going to be a real conversation that's extremely practical for our listeners, but we're going to jump into a really important moment, and this is one that encourages so many people — 9/11. Can you talk about that experience with us? Dave Harden 1:57 I've been able to speak over the years post the event. Talked to 15,000 people about 10 years after the event and have been able to share this story many times over, and I'm glad to be able to share it here with us today. Everyone knew what happened — kind of the Twin Towers. The first story comes out. I was busy in the thralls of my job at the Pentagon. Actually getting stuff out for President Bush, for him to make statements to some of my work in the Baltics at the time. So I wasn't really paying attention kind of to what was going on at the World Trade Center. Kind of knew what was going on. My beautiful redheaded wife, Angie, was coming to pick me up. So at the time, we had a young daughter, and she was pregnant with what would be my son, but we didn't know that at the time. So she was supposed to pick me up from the ultrasound, and so I rushed outside, and I don't remember the exact timing. Maybe she's supposed to pick me up at 9:15, 9:30, is right around, as we know now, when the plane would come into the Pentagon. So I'm out on the south bridge of the Pentagon, and it winds up being on the side of the impact of the plane would come in. And standing out there, I remember looking, it was a beautiful day, quiet, and if you remember, not a lot of people, there wasn't a lot of videos — not a lot of people actually saw the plane impact. And so those things you never forget. So that day, standing out there, I saw this plane coming. But we're by Reagan National Airport, right? So you're thinking that another plane's coming into Reagan. No big deal. I'm waiting for Angie to pick me up. She winds up being about five, 10 minutes late, and in hindsight, she always said, “If because I was late, you lost your life, I would never forgive myself.” And so I watch the plane come in, and then all of a sudden, it's like, “Holy crap! This plane is pointed right at me.” And so as it's coming straight in, I start running over the bridge. Little did I know Angie was just driving under the bridge at the time. So the plane comes over the top of her car, and as the plane impacts, if you remember, it kind of like actually careened, bounced into a 45-degree angle and then hit the building. So I'm running off the bridge. I'll never forget the sound, the flames, the searing heat as I was kind of running off the bridge, as the plane came in. And you could hear the engines spooled up, because if you remember, kind of like, obviously the terrorists are full throttle. And I remember looking in and seeing the people in the window, and I can't imagine their emotions and what they were going through in their final moments of life. So the explosion happens, I'm running off. I then run back into the bridge, go back into the building, really not thinking, and just like, you know, you're like, “How can I help?” So there's fire, there's smoke, and so we just start trying to get folks out and they start setting up kind of triage stations, both inside the courtyard, you know, at the Pentagon, and on the outside. So do that about 45 minutes, like, an hour helping out. And then enough people got me to kind of stabilize, you know, the situation. And so then, you know, I'm in the mission of finding my wife. So I was fortunate to kind of find her in the parking lot, you know. And obviously we have a moment. And it was interesting, because from her vantage point, she just was kind of blocked by the bridge. She saw the plane, and then they just saw the explosion and the fire, and so she thought I was dead. Naviere Walkewicz 6:03 I can't imagine how she was feeling at that moment. Dave Harden 6:06 So she takes Madison out. She's holding Madison, and she just starts bawling. She's like, “I just lost my husband,” right? And it's amazing, because Madison, who's, I guess, 2 years old, goes, “Mommy, it's OK. God will take care of the fire. God will put it out.” And the power of the words of a 2-year-old, kind of, in that moment, she's like, “All right,” you know, she took a deep breath, like, “Hey, I gotta get my act together.” We're able to get back kind of together, but we live like maybe an hour from the Pentagon. The car was there. We could take all these people, it's chaos, as you can imagine, it felt like a war zone that was just happening. And we get flooded with calls and, this was back — maybe not as much good telecommunications. We're flooded with calls and people. So because of all the adrenaline, everything that happened that day, we finally had a moment to break down, right? And we're just tearing up and crying and in that moment, just such a sense of gratitude for not only being alive, but for my family, for everything that kind of this nation represents, right? It's just a moment that kind of brought everybody together, and everyone has a 9/11 story. Everyone says, “Here I was, or there I was,” on 9/11. Naviere Walkewicz 7:30 After running across the bridge, like when you saw it coming, obviously you're like, “I need to not be in its path.” Can you remember what in you said, “Turn around and go back.” Was it just your background in the military? Like, “We don't run from we go help.” Can you remember? Dave Harden 7:50 It's hard to remember. I think it's instinct in the moment, you know? But I also think for listeners today — and today is about thinking through all those moments, and saying what are the muscle memories of running into the fire that gets you maybe more prepared for that moment? Naviere Walkewicz 8:10 So you don't freeze. Dave Harden 8:12 So you don't freeze. I think the Academy helps prepare you for those moments. What you go through — through hardships, and your personal hardships and childhood can help you through those moments, right? So many things make up someone's journey and the fabric of their lives, and who makes them themselves. And you don't always know if you'll have the courage in that moment. You don't always know if you'll have kind of what it takes. But I think, along the way, you can have a muscle memory that prepares you for that, right? And so, you know, might be something — you're overloaded with academics at the Academy, right? It could be you're having a personal crisis, you know, could be in your family. It could be external. It could be, literally, you're getting shot at, right? But I think it's kind of transforming the mentality, or a victim mentality, of, “I have to. This is a burden” to “I get to.” It's not saying, “I have to” anymore, It's saying, “You know what? I'm so thankful that I get to,” right? I get to solve this problem, right? “I get to — I'm lucky that I'm here at the Academy, and I have 25 credits, and I gotta take all these classes.” It's hard to think like that. You're like, “Oh, woe is me. This is such a burden. Oh, this is problem at work. Oh, someone died in the family, there's a crisis.” You have cancer, right? Think about all the things that impact our lives, that are hard. And if we're able to say, “You know what…” Start that muscle memory like, “You know what, I get to overcome this, I'm going to learn a lot going through this hardship, through these tough times. It's going to make me different. It's going to make me stronger. It gives me that instinct and that character.” And when you have enough of those muscle memories, then I think what happens in the moment is you're ready. Naviere Walkewicz 10:04 Yeah, you act. Dave Harden 10:05 You act. Naviere Walkewicz 10:06 Did you develop that as a child — that muscle memory, you think? Or what was that like for you then? Dave Harden 10:19 So I was very fortunate. I'll preface this with: I have a family that adopted me, but my early childhood was not a silver spoon. A lot of people look at my life today and they say, “Oh, you were given something. It was easy.” A lot of people feel like that, you know, someone made money. They got inheritance from the family. You know, all those things. Naviere Walkewicz 10:39 Right. The easy way, right? The easy button. Dave Harden 10:41 The easy road. Easy street. Naviere Walkewicz 10:43 Yes, you push the button, and it was… yeah. Dave Harden 10:44 So I would say that there was no yellow brick road to this path. And so I was actually born in Avignon, France. And so my birth father was French, my birth mother was American. I don't speak a lick of French, so that's a side note. And so I wind up born a U.S. citizen. Come back to the U.S. when I was 2 — they split up. And, you know, unfortunately, my birth mother just wasn't well and wasn't able to love me, maybe you think like a traditional family. So I suffered extreme abuse as a child, and so much so that the state had to come in at 6 years old and take me away. My original foster parents told me, you know, I think I knew 12 letters of the alphabet at that time because I wasn't going to school; I wasn't doing the things that most kids kind of get to do. If you look at the history of what I went through in the beginnings of my life, normally, that doesn't lead to success. So a lot of people over the years have asked me, “Dave, what was the difference? How'd you come out of that differently?” And you don't always know in the moment, right? You think about it, you reflect all the things that came through. And for me, as I reflect, there's an unyielding faith in God. And I think, as I reflect — some people call it the universe, and I want to be respectful about how people view the energy that we get to experience and the faith that we have. But for me, what I figured out is, I was able to look up when all hell is breaking loose, when your life seems like it's in shambles, when things are going wrong, how do you have a glimmer of hope? Naviere Walkewicz 12:54 You look up. Dave Harden 12:55 You look up, right? And what does that mean? Looking up changes your gratitude, your centeredness, and it shifts from a “why me” conversation — “Why is all of this happening to me?” Right? “I'm a bad person. I fail. Things are going wrong. Things are blowing up. Someone just died. I'm getting shot at. I have too much academics. I just lost someone close to me in my life.” But if you can go from like, “Why me?” to “What if? What if things get better?” Naviere Walkewicz 13:45 How did you do that as a young boy? I mean, I'm thinking, you know, 9 years old, you know, you're still learning about yourself. You had maybe a foster family that showed you and displayed maybe some love. Is that where you learned to look up, or was it just something in you, and that was just the way that — I know you said faith. Dave Harden 14:03 Yeah, I think it's both. I've had deep analysis on nurture versus nature and I think it's a little bit of both. My foster parents went on to adopt me, and they come from a Depression, kind of post generation, right? And so I think what they were able to give me is enough structure and safety to become the person who I could become. And I think you need that safety and structure to start with, and then I could learn the things about gratitude and self-esteem and love, right? And those were innate with me. Each of us have this creative being, and we want to see it become alive. But if it gets squashed, If we don't believe in ourselves, if we don't look up, then we're just confronted with all the stuff in front of us. All the crap, all the fire, all the burning in our lives, in our businesses and in our workplaces. And I think going through that experience helped me learn to transform that thinking so that we look up and we look beyond. Naviere Walkewicz 15:23 When I'm looking at you right now, you know how, as we age, we have like lifelines on our face? And when I think about people who tend to look down, their face kind of shows it. But what I see in you when I look across right now are the lines that show that you have looked up. I see when you smile, it is so like, etched in your face, like in a way that is like joy. And I really do think you live that way. How do you share that gratitude and what has been innate in you that's been ignited with others? How have you helped others find that, whether while you're a cadet or in business, etc.? Dave Harden 15:57 Yeah, that's a great question. Everyone says I have about 300% more energy than most people. Naviere Walkewicz 16:02 I know, I'm trying to hang. I'm trying to keep up with you here! Dave Harden 16:06 I think that's one way, right, is again, you'll hear me say it over and over again. It's gratitude. Do you wake up in the morning and say, “Hey, what are the three things that I'm just freaking thankful for?” Because it's so easy — you listen to news, it's heavy. It's just, everything's heavy, right? And so I think living a life of gratitude transforms everyone's life and allows you to be a different person, allows you to create those muscle memories that allows you to do something. It's interesting — I get asked a lot of questions, especially having kind of this, you know, successful investment and business career, having flown C-17s, having done AFWERX — I think maybe we'll kind of dive in that a little bit. I've had all these eclectic kind of backgrounds and experiences, and they're like, you know, “How'd that happen? How'd you go from this to this, to this, to this?” And, you know, it's interesting. I think it just winds up, you know, running towards the problem. And I've had people say that over and over again: “You're just a person that, man, I just feel like, you know, you'll always run to the fire.” And so, I think when you do that over and over and over again, then it just transforms the way you think. You're willing to overcome, and hey, “I'll take on this bureaucracy. I'll take on the Air Force and transform it. Naviere Walkewicz 17:26 Is that where Big D came from? Dave Harden 17:28 It is. So are we gonna have a side shuffle here? Alright. We'll have a side shuffle. As you know, we can dive into it more. I had this opportunity, because of the business background and all these — right moment, right place, right time, had the great honor of being able to build from the ground up with a bunch of other amazing, talented people, what's now known as AFWERX. And that wound up being the anchor innovation arm for the Air Force to bring in new technology and transform the way we're doing business as a service. So that was amazing. We did a shark tank called Spark Tank at Mark Cuban, George Steinbrenner in there. Transform the culture, identify innovation superheroes, is what we call it. Naviere Walkewicz 18:19 I love that. Dave Harden 18:20 So, where's your cape? Where are you innovating? How can we go make that happen quicker? And that's what we were able to do. But it was funny when we kind of started, you know, I was like, 30 days — they wanted to facilitate all the four-star generals in the Air Force in this, like, 30-year planning. So I was only supposed to be at the Pentagon for 30 days… Naviere Walkewicz 18:40 And you're a reservist during this, right? Dave Harden 18:42 I'm a reservist during that time — lieutenant colonel reservist. And so I wound up… this turns into four years now of my life. I get sucked back into the five-sided building, which was a great honor. But as you know, it's a lot of like, you know, cyber locks and behind-closed-doors kind of stuff at the Pentagon. Everyone goes to their little room and cubicle, and that's where your magical work happens. So here's this business guy who happens — I liked to wear flight suits as much as I can. Every once in a while they make me wear blues in the Pentagon. So, walking around the five-sided building. Well, as you can imagine, cell phone service is not the best at the Pentagon. So, you can imagine, I'm trying to connect businesses. I'm trying to think about different ways to do stuff, right? So that's not sitting at my desk working on the NIPRNet. Naviere Walkewicz 19:38 There's no magic happening from your seat in the cubicle. Dave Harden 19:40 So, I'm wandering around the halls, and I have to, like, triangulate — “Where the hell am I going to get a cell phone signal?” Might be the courtyard. I've got my hand in the air. If I put aluminum foil on this, you know, the little longer thing. There's one window by the second corridor, you know? So anyhow, that's the exercise. So literally, for like, six months, every month, without fail, someone's pulling me into their office because I'm not following protocol. Naviere Walkewicz 20:14 Oh my goodness. You're like, “Do you know what I'm standing up?” Dave Harden 20:16 Didn't care. They didn't care. They're like, “You're screwing off. You're doing other stuff. You're doing outside business. You're always in the hall. You're never at your office.” You know, “Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,” right? So I just got read the riot act. “Terrible officer not doing the things you're supposed to be doing.” A maverick. So anyhow, eventually all these big things started happening. We're transforming the way the Air Force Association… Naviere Walkewicz 20:49 The light goes bing. Dave Harden 20:51 Right. And, like, these new capabilities, and I'm like, actually connecting people, like, I pull people by their office and say, “You need to walk down to this other corridor. Meet this person.” Because this is the connection we need to get stuff done. Now we're just running around the halls of the Pentagon, either on the phone or shuffling people around, and eventually they're like, “Oh, wow. This is making a difference. Things are happening. And so in that process, I got the call sign Big D, which, on this podcast, could be funny. So we'll keep it PG-13 here on this network. But you know, it was for the deal making. So it's like they knew that big deals were gonna get done with Big D because I was gonna be on the phone, come hell or high water, I was gonna be in the halls of the Pentagon making it happen. Because it was too important. It was too important to get technology quicker out that people needed. Naviere Walkewicz 21:54 Why did you feel that way? Dave Harden 21:55 So many transformative things kind of in my life come back to service. So I remember, I was actually flying in Afghanistan, C-17. I'm sure you know. Afghanistan is a big bowl, so you gotta get over the 24,000-foot mountains, dive in really quickly. And so at the time we would do that with night vision goggles. You try to find a couple little infrared lights in the basin somewhere, coming down really quick and hoping you find them and you're landing in the right spot. And so, pretty intense environment, as you can imagine. And a lot of threats coming in and coming out. So triple-A. Folks, you know, with Toyota pickup trucks with missiles on the back, launching off the shoulders. And so, leaving out of that bowl, we wound up being a target, like sometimes you are. But on this day, as we were kind of turning out, we have kind of a missile warning system that's in the middle and so it starts going off and kinda tells where, in general, it's coming from. But basically, you know maybe it's a false alert, but more than likely not, it's something's coming at you. So what happens next is kind of like super-slow motion, like you're watching a movie, and so it's like, Fourth of July. Because you have a bunch of systems on the plane, so you have flares, and so it's like, boom. So now it's super bright, and you're taking the actions you need and have kind of been trained to do. But there's some additional systems on there. So they have added basically a laser system, and the laser system is trying to find the warhead, mess up the guidance system, because it's looking for your engines, it wants the heat on the engines. So this is all going on but it happens really quick, but it happens really slow when you're in the moment. And so I just remember when it happened, it's super quiet on the flight deck. Because you have load master, you have another pilot, you have the crew. Essentially, you have three seconds between knowing whether you're alive or you're dead. And so you can imagine the moment when all this stuff goes off, and in the back of my mind, it's essentially a three-Mississippi count. So you go “one Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi,” and you're either alive or you're dead. So that quiet moment in between is quite the reflection of life. I'm here with you today, so obviously all the stuff that was supposed to work, worked. And in the reflection of that moment, that technology, which was developed years before, saved my life. And yet, we were stuck and faced a bureaucracy that took five years, 10 years to get technology to the front that had bloated requirements and just outdated acquisition processes. And so I was motivated to say, “We have to do something different to get that technology to the front line, to save lives and the work that people do every day to transform the way they get to do business.” And so that's always been the driving force. It's been my driving force to this day, was that that technology to our nation quicker must be accomplished, and the way you do that is you identify the innovation superheroes inside our service and in our businesses and in our entrepreneurs that can be brought together to bring about that change. Naviere Walkewicz 26:04 So that's really incredible how a moment in time literally had set the stage for your passion. You were leading AFWERX, you got it across the line, and amazing technology has been made available to our warfighters, to our processes. Why did you then — or maybe it's on a grander scale — move into the private sector, where you're actually doing this, still with the same kind of vision of what you're trying to accomplish, but without maybe some of the red tape? Why did you move on from AFWERX? Dave Harden 26:38 That's a great question. So I love this because I love the concept of the airman citizen. I think it's really important, because I went to pilot training. So in pilot training, we're all competing, like, you know, “You gotta be No. 1. You get the plane you want.” You know, all this stuff. A lot of ego flying around, right? And then there's this group, and they were, like, kind of little bit older. Like, “Oh, I'm in this Guard unit, and as soon as we finish pilot training, I'm gonna fly a C-130. I'm gonna fly this...” They already knew what they were gonna fly. I'm like, “How the hell?” I didn't know about the Guard and Reserve. I knew nothing about it, right? Naviere Walkewicz 27:20 Wow OK. That's true. Many people don't know… Dave Harden 27:22 Already in service, right? And it was this amazing discovery. One, they became, like, my best friends. I'm like, these are really cool people. But it was the beginning of this journey. It was like an enlightenment of this airman citizen, like I could still serve our country, right? And so I did wind up going into the Reserve, flying out Charleston, South Carolina, flying C-17s while I did business. So I was able to grow all the stuff I did in business and consult the oil industry and write books and speak around the world and run tech companies while still serving and contributing to the nation. And so I just wound up with a unique skill set — kind of business and military and bringing that all together at a moment in time at the Pentagon. And so that all came together and it was a natural extension. And then say, “OK, we've built this kind of ecosystem. How do we now go on the outside and help cut through the red tape? How do we bring capital. How do we identify the entrepreneurs and take this amazing land and amazing minds that we have and turn them towards our nation's most challenging problems and run towards the fire?” That the nation needs to survive for our children, our grandchildren and the democracy that we hold dear. And so I was grateful for each of those chapters, right? I was grateful for the chapter to build something; I'm grateful for the chapter now in the business world to make a difference. And I see that manifest in different ways. You and I earlier, we're kind of talking a little bit — on the business end there's hardships, there's difficulties, there's fires. And you hear that phrase all the time: “All we do is put out fires all day.” So that's a little bit different context. But sometimes there's bigger fires, you know. I remember we were faced — we lost a $9 million contract. And its people's lives, you know? There are single moms that work for you, and there's, you know, people that you've been loyal to the company for a long time. And sometimes just businesses don't become feasible. So you have a big fire. The landscape transforms. COVID hits. The timing just changes and is off. And so we sat in that moment, and it's emotional, because you're like, “I gotta let 25% of the company off. It's gonna impact families. It's gonna impact lives. And I remember this day, part of our culture was being grateful, being thankful. And you lose track of that because the budget, make payroll, all the all these business things, you know? How's this gonna look? The ego here, right? All these emotions come in, and then taking that moment to take a pause, to look up, to realign, to give thanks, and then to lean into that fire. I remember we kind of gathered up, and I said, “You know what? This is gonna be hard, and people gonna be let go. Can we take a moment just to — there's so many people in here that have stepped up last minute, made things happen, been a part of your life.” And that next hour where people just sat around the table and said, “You know what? John did this for me. Lori did this for me. Man, you know, they stayed up all night and kind of got this proposal done.” Someone's like, “Oh, I needed a surgery and my doctor sucked. They were personally there for me and helped me with that.” It was an hour of gratitude that even in the despair, even in the business environment of having let people go, there was a sense of like culture and gratitude and awareness that doesn't make it easier — you know, you lose your job. It doesn't make some of the fires easier to put out, but we leaned into the fire in a way that helped us get through it from a business perspective. And I always remember that moment, because it really… we just took that step back and it transformed the entire conversation. And so for listeners out there: I say whatever you're going through, you have that same opportunity to take a step back, to have that moment of gratitude, pause and then lean in like hell. Solve that problem. You have an opportunity to really solve what's in front of you, to run into the fire. It might be drastic like 9/11. Like, we're saving somebody's life. But it might be something smaller, but equally as meaningful. Naviere Walkewicz 32:42 I'd like to ask you something because based off of something you said earlier, and I think it was this whole concept of gratitude and having gone through, many hardships in your childhood, in business, etc. How have you been able to stay— and maybe humble is not the right word — but you seem really rooted. It's not about position or title. You seem just really rooted in a humanity and caring about people. Am I right in seeing that? And how do you do that? Dave Harden 33:12 Well, thanks for feeling that energy and then responding to it and asking me that question. At the end of day, it's about relationships and connections. And you're right. That comes from early childhood, right? When you have the experiences that you had, for me, I knew more than anything, that family was important for me. In fact, that was part of my decision, like at the Naval Academy, because it's like, I think I like my time at Naval Academy. I don't know if the Navy would just be a higher negative impact on family. Naviere Walkewicz 33:43 Because you'd be underway for months. Dave Harden 33:45 Right. For a year, or whatever. So I think, imagine making that decision at 17. Because that thought was always there. I think Angie is swinging by for the 30th reunion here at the studio here in a little bit. So I have a beautiful red-headed wife that we've gone through ups and downs, gone through challenges, right? But here we sit at 30 years… Naviere Walkewicz 34:13 Congratulations, that's amazing. Dave Harden 34:14 Yes, thank you so much. It's an inspiration for me, right? Because her parents got married at the Cadet Chapel. A little tie back here to the Air Force Academy. We got married three days after graduation. So, you know, I don't know. Maybe that's cliche, but maybe it's kind of a need and a legacy thing which I lean towards, right? And so my kids inspire me every day. You know my wife inspires me every day. Meeting you and the connections and relationships that I get to get across business, across being in the trenches, being in those fires, forge the relationships, that go across boundaries. And too often times things are transactional. It's like, “Hey, I'm in this position,” and then you have their phone number and their email, and then they change positions, and you never hear from them again. And that's not what life is about. That's not the richness of life. That's not how you inspire people. You inspire people by connecting with them and being thankful for them, right? And so that inspiration comes from my childhood, from seeing death firsthand, from losing people in my life and being able to say, “You know what, if we can transform, if we can pause, if we can look up, right, and see the faith and the ‘what if' and not say, ‘Why is this happening to me? But what can I do with it? What can I do for others? How can I connect in a meaningful way?' you will transform your life, you'll transform your leadership, and you'll transform the people around you, because they'll be inspired to be superheroes in their own right. Naviere Walkewicz 36:03 Well, I certainly believe I could probably foreshadow what you might say in this next one. But I want to ask you this because, you know, there's something about putting into practice what you say, and obviously it has served you well in all facets of your career. What are you doing every day, Dave, to be better, whether it's in leadership, it's in relationships, but what are you doing personally every day to be better? Dave Harden 36:29 You know, I think I have a core philosophy. And you might have heard it before. Can I get better by 1% today? So if you wake up in the morning and you're like, “Can I get better by 1% today?” What does that mean? How do I do that? And I think it starts at the beginning of the day by saying… It's easy to be like, “Oh, I'm running late. My alarm went off. I'm tired. I gotta do laundry. I gotta get this job. I gotta get the kids. You gotta… Stack it up and you're like… You can be overwhelmed. The news. You know, something just happened. Within the first 30 minutes, you're overwhelmed for your day. Your day's done. Naviere Walkewicz 37:16 Right. Go back to bed. Try again. Dave Harden 37:18 It sucks. Why me? Fires are burning all around me. Naviere Walkewicz 37:20 Where do I go? Right. Dave Harden 37:23 So even if you just take a couple minutes and you're just like, “What are the three things that I'm thankful for today?” it recenters your gratitude journey, right? And then throughout the day, I call it the gratitude debrief. And if you're familiar with anything that's like fighter pilots after your mission— what did we learn? And, you know, getting after that, but a lot of people don't have a gratitude debrief. And what I described for you in that business crisis, what I described for you sitting there with your family after — my family after 9/11, it was a gratitude debrief. What went right today? Who did I appreciate that I need to thank? I guarantee if you come at it from that perspective, you're going to see more opportunity. People are going to want to do business with you, because you're the type of person that is grateful, and they want to reach out, they want to network for they want to do that one other thing, right? And when you're in that mental space, when bad things are happening and fires are burning around you, you won't even think for a second “I need to help somebody. I need to do the thing.” And at that moment when it becomes instantaneous, when it's the thing you just do, you know you're centered in that place of gratitude. Naviere Walkewicz 38:55 So Dave, thank you for sharing that — what you're doing every day? What about what some of our listeners, no matter where in their journey they are… You know, we talked about the pause, look up. But what can they be doing every day to be better? Dave Harden 39:08 I think you get back to what we were talking about earlier, which was kind of that stepping into the fire, that leaning in. And I think you know what I've learned, and at the end of the day, what our listeners can take away is, at the end of the day, courage is a choice. I think courage is actually a choice, because you're building all these… I gave you some tools, muscles, and you just don't know what's going to happen in that moment in time. But in that moment in time — there's a great book that I just thought of. It was called Moments of Truth. It's a great book, and it talks a little bit about your brand, your business brand, and it's really built with all these little moments of truth, right? Because it could be your interaction. It could be we came out on the airline today for the 30th reunion So, how did that customer in a certain, you know, interaction? Did they solve my problem? Did they lean in? Did they take care of me? And each of those moments of truth add up to a brand. You, the listeners, have to decide what's their brand going to be. Is it going to be running towards the fire or running away from fires? So whether it's a real fire or proverbial fire, you're going to be ready for that moment. At the end of the day, that's what we believe. Your hardships in life, your Academy experience, your service, your business life, if done correctly, prepare you for and allow you to lead others through. Naviere Walkewicz 40:54 This time together has been… it's inspiring me. I mean, I have just felt the energy and I felt your hardship and how you continue, how you put into practice, your pause, your look up, you know, be grateful. And I want to tell you I'm grateful for you in this time we've had today, because it's been… it really has made a difference, and I'm looking forward to debriefing tonight when I fly home with my son about what went right today. So thank you for that. I think that's really useful. Dave Harden 41:18 Awesome. Thank you so much. Yes, I appreciate it. Naviere Walkewicz 41:20 Absolutely. Well, as our conversation with Dave Harden comes to a close, I'm reminded that leadership is often forged in the fire. Dave's journey from the Pentagon on 9/11 to overcoming adversity in his childhood to pioneering innovation in some of the toughest environments reminds us that true leaders don't run away from the fire. They run toward it. Dave's story reminds us that hardship is inevitable, but gratitude transforms hardship into fuel when you meet your next fire, literally or figuratively. Pause, look up, give thanks and step forward. We know that's how leaders grow in the Long Blue Line, and how you become the kind of person others want to follow anywhere. Thank you for joining us on this episode of Long Blue Leadership. I'm Naviere Walkewicz, Class of '99. Until next time.

La periodista Raquel Villaécija visita el Comando Norte para hablar de "La vergüenza", su crónica de las intensas semanas que pasó en el tribunal de Avignon cubriendo el caso Pelicot. Explica lo que supuso que Giséle abriera las puertas de ese juicio, y que es posible que el caso, siendo muy sórdido, fuese particularmente bien cubierto por la cantidad de mujeres periodistas que, como Raquel, se sintieron personalmente implicadas y pasaron muchas horas viendo el juicio. Por otro lado, era imprescindible ver los vídeos para que no cupiera duda alguna de que aquello eran violaciones, y también era importante que Giséle se sintiera acompañada por las periodistas y no se enfrentara sola a esos 50 hombres y a su ex marido. Es fascinante que Gisele, que pasó de ser una víctima a una heroina del feminismo e icono del debate sobre consentimiento, estuviera defendida por dos hombres, mientras que Dominique escogiera a una mujer como su abogada, una mujer que terminó estando en el mismo bando que Giséle puesto que su objetivo, más que defender al agresor era conseguir que el resto de los acusados admitiera que ellos también eran unos violadores. Como dice Raquel, "uno también se define por la defensa que elige", y las defensas de muchos acusados fueron muy agresivas con la víctima. Afortunadamente, sus argumentos (que ella no estaba del todo inconsciente, que sabía lo que su marido hacía, que estaba alcoholizada...) quedaron completamente desacreditados por las evidencias, como reflejó la sentencia.Raquel Villaécija confiesa que hay una parte de sí misma que sigue ahí, en ese tribunal, inmersa en los debates que suscitó el caso.

Ce qui m'a le plus frappé chez lui, c'est son refus de choisir entre le beau et le grandiose.Thomas Jolly ne veut pas plaire, il veut éblouir.Un enfant de La Rue-Saint-Pierre, en Normandie, qui montait des spectacles dans sa chambre à 5 ans.Un ado harcelé, mais déjà persuadé qu'on peut survivre grâce à l'imaginaire.Des années plus tard, il signe la cérémonie d'ouverture des Jeux Olympiques de Paris. Un milliard et demi de regards. Et, en retour : un torrent d'amour, d'éloges mais aussi de haine.Lui, il encaisse. Il répond par la beauté.Parce qu'il croit que créer, c'est résister.Ce qu'on a voulu comprendre dans cet épisode de PAUSE, ce n'est pas seulement comment on conçoit un spectacle planétaire, c'est pourquoi on choisit encore de croire à la beauté, quand le monde préfère juger.Dans cet épisode de PAUSE, il parle sans détour du vertige de la grandeur, de la violence des critiques, de cette voix d'enfant qu'il refuse de faire taire.Un échange sur la démesure, la vulnérabilité, la liberté d'inventer.

Cécile évoque une première résidence faite au Totem, scène conventionnée enfance et jeunesse à Avignon. Cécile et son équipe ont fait des promenades dans ce quartier, guidé.es par trois questions « I-R-M » : comment s'Intégrer (s'Immiscer dans les failles, s'Inspirer du paysage) ; comment être en Regard (comment est-ce qu'on déplace notre regard, on l'ouvre ou le resserre ?) ; comment être en Mouvement (comment est-ce qu'on met en mouvement le public ?). À l'appui de différentes photos qui montrent notamment les artistes sur le terrain de jeu situé en face du Totem, Cécile explique que la ville, en tant qu'acrobate, était comme un terrain de jeu.

Tại Pháp, chưa bao giờ tài trợ cho văn hóa lại rơi vào trình trạng như vậy, bị giảm gần 66 triệu euro trong năm 2025. Nhiều cuộc biểu tình, tuần hành đã diễn ra để cảnh báo mối nguy hiểm của việc thiếu đầu tư vào văn hóa, nhưng nhìn chung các cơ sở, hiệp hội đang phải gồng mình thích ứng với chính sách “thắt lưng buộc bụng”. Các khoản tài trợ cho văn hóa đến từ chính phủ và chính quyền địa phương - từ cấp vùng, tỉnh đến thành phố. Cho dù “khối địa phương” vẫn đứng đầu nhưng ngân sách dành cho văn hóa đã bị giảm đi bốn lần so với năm trước. 70% tỉnh và vùng đã giảm chi tiêu cho văn hóa, trong khi chỉ có 20% vào năm 2024. Văn hóa cũng bị “thắt lưng buộc bụng” Mọi lĩnh vực văn hóa đều bị ảnh hưởng. Bị tác động nặng nhất là các kỳ festival, sự kiện (-36%), tiếp theo là biểu diễn (-35%), hoạt động văn hóa và giáo dục văn hóa-nghệ thuật (-31%). Khoảng 41% hiệp hội văn hóa bị giảm trợ cấp. Một bộ phận khán giả (thiếu niên dưới 17 tuổi, hưu trí…) cũng bị hạn chế tiếp cận với văn hóa. Chương trình vũ đạo La belle scène saint-denis của Nhà hát Louis Aragon, thành phố Tremblay en France, tỉnh Seine - Sainte-Denis (ngoại ô Paris), được trình diễn tại Liên hoan Avignon, là một ví dụ điển hình. Bà Emmanuelle Jouan, giám đốc Nhà hát Louis Aragon, giải thích với RFI Tiếng Việt : « Chương trình của chúng tôi tồn tại là nhờ nguồn tài trợ công, từ Nhà nước, vùng, tỉnh, thành phố. Thực ra phải nói thành phố Tremblay en France mới là đơn vị tài trợ nhiều nhất cho chúng tôi. Những nguồn tài chính này cho phép chúng tôi phát triển dự án và bán vé với giá rất ưu đãi cho công chúng thành phố. Chúng tôi được trợ cấp bởi vì nhà hát chúng tôi nằm trong một khu vực mà thu nhập của người dân vẫn còn rất khiêm tốn. Và đây chính là ý nghĩa thực sự về dịch vụ công, có nghĩa là chúng tôi mang nghệ thuật và những nghệ sĩ lớn đến một nơi mà dường như người dân chưa biết đến họ. Vì vậy chúng tôi làm việc quanh năm với rất nhiều nghệ sĩ, mà một số người đã biểu diễn trên sân khấu sáng nay (14/07). Hàng năm, chúng tôi đồng hành với ba dự án ở địa phương. Những nghệ sĩ đó giao lưu với người dân địa phương, cùng họ xây dựng các dự án và tạo nên sự gần gũi này ». Nhà hát Louis Aragon đã đồng hành với hơn 40 đoàn nghệ thuật. Rất nhiều nghệ sĩ đã thành danh nhờ được hỗ trợ về tài chính, cơ sở vật chất và được hỗ trợ quảng bá, ví dụ thông qua Liên hoan Avignon. La belle scène saint denis trở thành điểm tham chiếu để các nhà hoạt động chuyên môn, các “ông bầu” đến tìm tài năng mới. Giám đốc Emmanuelle Jouan giải thích tiếp : « Đây là lần thứ 14 chương trình vũ đạo la belle scène saint denis được biểu diễn ở Avignon. Đây là một dự án hỗ trợ nghệ sĩ dài hạn được phát triển ở tỉnh Seine - Saint-Denis. Vì vậy, chúng tôi đến Avignon hàng năm để giới thiệu với các chuyên gia những tác phẩm của các nghệ sĩ mà đôi khi chúng tôi đã hỗ trợ từ hơn 10 năm qua, hoặc giới thiệu những nghệ sĩ chưa được biết đến nhiều. Dần dần, nhờ công sức, sự kiên trì của chúng tôi, chương trình la belle scène saint-denis đã trở thành một địa điểm nổi tiếng về múa và nhảy. Có rất nhiều chuyên gia đến đây và đôi khi tìm được các nhóm nghệ sĩ mới cho họ, cơ hội để các nghệ sĩ mở rộng sự nghiệp của mình. Đó là lý do tại sao chúng tôi ở đây. Nhưng trước tiên, chúng tôi có một nhà hát ở tỉnh Seine - Saint-Denis, hoạt động quanh năm ở tỉnh để phục vụ người dân. Nhưng chúng tôi cũng có ba đoàn múa hợp tác với chúng tôi hàng năm và chính những nghệ sĩ này đến biểu diễn ở Liên hoan Avignon ». Sáng tạo để tìm nguồn tồn tại Ngoài những nghệ sĩ trong chương trình chính thức “IN”, đa số các đoàn kịch được chọn tham gia chương trình phi chính thức “OFF” tại Liên hoan Avignon đều phải tự xoay sở tài chính. Những tác phẩm được sáng tác cho Liên hoan được nhận một khoản hỗ trợ nhỏ. Đoàn kịch tự lo chi phí lưu trú, địa điểm biểu diễn… Anh Brice của đoàn kịch Plume Pourpre, biểu diễn vở hài nhạc kịch Chân trụ trên các vì sao (Les Keykeepers : Les Pieds dans les étoiles), giải thích : « Đối với các đoàn kịch, đây là một thử thách thực sự. Trước hết, về mặt tài chính, đó là cả một ngân sách. Phải thuê một suất trong rạp hát, phải tìm được chỗ ở tại Avignon. Vì vậy, đó là một khoản đầu tư lớn. Chúng tôi không có nguồn tài trợ công. Tất cả chi phí là tiền của chúng tôi hoặc của các mạnh thường quân. Mục tiêu hiện diện tại Avignon ngày hôm nay đối với một đoàn kịch không phải đến từ Paris mà từ nông thôn như chúng tôi là để có thể quảng cáo chương trình của mình ngoài vùng nông thôn. Và làm thế nào để vở kịch của chúng tôi có thể được biết trên quy mô toàn quốc ? Chỉ có cách là tham gia Liên hoan Avignon hoặc để khai thác ở Paris. Và chúng tôi đã chọn Liên hoan Avignon để được biểu diễn hàng ngày ở một nhà hát trong 3 tuần ». Làm thế nào để có được một khoản kinh phí không phải là nhỏ ? Nghệ sĩ La Belle Époque, đoàn kịch Collectif Rue 46, tác giả vở Hongai tại Liên hoan Avignon, giải thích : « Chúng tôi thực sự cần tiền nên đã phát động một chiến dịch gây quỹ cộng đồng. Chúng tôi đã vượt qua mục tiêu 3.000 euro. Ngoài ra, chúng tôi đã biểu diễn tại nhà theo yêu cầu vào cuối tháng 5, cho nên cũng gây được quỹ. Chúng tôi cũng biểu diễn tại tòa thị chính Quận 11 Paris vào cuối tháng 6. Tương tự, chúng tôi cũng nhận được khoản tài trợ từ thị chính Paris. Tại Liên hoan Avignon, chúng tôi đang cố gắng biểu diễn để tài trợ cho cuộc phiêu lưu này. Sau đó, khi hết hè, có thể sẽ có thêm vài buổi biểu diễn nữa. Chúng tôi sẽ cố gắng gây quỹ để hoàn trả khoản đầu tư cho Liên hoan ». Trong một rừng chương trình biểu diễn tại Liên hoan Avignon, thu hút được sự chú ý của người qua đường - những khán giả tiềm tàng - không phải là điều dễ dàng. Vậy phải làm thế nào ? Frank Milin, nghệ sĩ của đoàn kịch Collectif Rue 46, cho biết : « Chúng tôi đi phát tờ rơi quảng cáo, chúng tôi dành khoảng 3 đến 4 tiếng mỗi ngày để phát tờ rời trên đường phố Avignon. Chúng tôi may mắn khi có khá nhiều nghệ sĩ tham gia vở kịch, cho nên có thể thay phiên nhau trong ngày. Phần lớn thời gian trong ngày được dành cho việc gặp gỡ những khán giả tương lai trên đường phố, giải thích cho họ về tác phẩm của mình, tạo hứng thú để họ đến xem chúng tôi biểu diễn. Những lúc như vậy rất vui vì đó là những cuộc trao đổi thực sự thú vị ». Phát tờ rơi, sáng tạo muôn vàn kiểu quảng cáo trở thành biểu tượng đặc trưng, độc đáo của Liên hoan Avignon. Làm thế nào để tiếp cận một người qua đường, rồi khiến họ dừng chân lại để nghe quảng cáo về vở kịch, trong khi có đến gần 1.800 buổi diễn ? Đó là cả một chiến lược được vạch trước. Nghệ sĩ Franck Milin của Collectif Rue 46 cho biết thêm : « Đó là một ý tưởng mà chúng tôi đã cân nhắc. Chúng tôi đã làm việc một chút trước khi đến Avignon. Nhưng chiến lược đã thay đổi, bởi vì giống như vở kịch, đôi khi phải thích ứng. Tại Avignon, chúng xem điều gì phù hợp, điều gì không, sau đó chúng tôi cân nhắc xem điều gì hiệu quả và điều gì không. Nhưng chúng tôi cố gắng giải thích nhanh cho người qua đường rằng đó là một vở kịch lịch sử nhưng theo cách sân khấu, quay ngược về quá khứ với hai nhân vật chính ». Giảm tài trợ : Khán giả trẻ bị hạn chế tiếp cận văn hóa Việc cắt giảm tài trợ cho các tổ chức văn hóa, nhà hát tác động đến giá vé, vẫn được bán với giá ưu đãi cho một bộ phận công chúng ở một số địa phương, nhất là những khu vực nơi người dân có thu nhập khiêm tốn, như Bà Emmanuelle Jouan, giám đốc Nhà hát Louis Aragon, đã giải thích. Chương trình cổ vũ tiếp cận văn hóa cho khán giả “trẻ” từ 15-21 tuổi cũng sẽ bị tác động do việc tài trợ cho Pass Culture (thẻ thông hành Văn hóa) cũng bị đóng băng. khoảng 84% thanh thiếu niên trong độ tuổi được hưởng đã đăng ký Pass Culture, được chính thức triển khai năm 2021 sau hai năm thử nghiệm. Hơn 35.000 đối tác văn hóa đề xuất cho khán giả trẻ hàng loạt hoạt động văn hóa (biểu diễn, hòa nhạc, giao lưu, hội thảo, triển lãm, tham quan…) hoặc chương trình đào tạo nghệ thuật. Tuy nhiên, Luật Tài chính năm 2025 quy định giảm ngân sách dành cho Pass Culture từ 72 triệu euro xuống còn 52 triệu euro, chia thành hai đợt. Tính đến tháng 03/2025, 40 triệu euro trong số 50 triệu euro được phân bổ đã được giải ngân cho năm học 2024-2025. Kết quả là nhiều trường không tổ chức được hoạt động ngoại khóa vì không tiếp cận được nguồn tài trợ. Toàn cảnh của việc cắt giảm trợ cấp cho văn hóa được bà Aurélie Hannedouche, giám đốc Nghiệp đoàn âm nhạc đương đại (Le Syndicat des musiques actuelles, SMA), tóm tắt khi trả lời đài phát thanh France Culture ngày 16/04 : “Sẽ có ít hoạt động hơn, ví dụ trong các nhà dưỡng lão, nhà trẻ, trường học, các trung tâm xã hội, trại giam hoặc trong những khu vực được xếp là ưu tiên, thậm chí là “ngoài bốn bức tường”, ví dụ như ở nông thôn”.
Tại Pháp, chưa bao giờ tài trợ cho văn hóa lại rơi vào trình trạng như vậy, bị giảm gần 66 triệu euro trong năm 2025. Nhiều cuộc biểu tình, tuần hành đã diễn ra để cảnh báo mối nguy hiểm của việc thiếu đầu tư vào văn hóa, nhưng nhìn chung các cơ sở, hiệp hội đang phải gồng mình thích ứng với chính sách “thắt lưng buộc bụng”.

Những nghệ sĩ đó giao lưu với người dân địa phương, cùng họ xây dựng các dự án và tạo nên sự gần gũi này ». Nhà hát Louis Aragon đã đồng hành với hơn 40 đoàn nghệ thuật. Rất nhiều nghệ sĩ đã thành danh nhờ được hỗ trợ về tài chính, cơ sở vật chất và được hỗ trợ quảng bá, ví dụ thông qua Liên hoan Avignon. La belle scène saint denis trở thành điểm tham chiếu để các nhà hoạt động chuyên môn, các “ông bầu” đến tìm tài năng mới. Giám đốc Emmanuelle Jouan giải thích tiếp : « Đây là lần thứ 14 chương trình vũ đạo la belle scène saint denis được biểu diễn ở Avignon. Đây là một dự án hỗ trợ nghệ sĩ dài hạn được phát triển ở tỉnh Seine - Saint-Denis. Vì vậy, chúng tôi đến Avignon hàng năm để giới thiệu với các chuyên gia những tác phẩm của các nghệ sĩ mà đôi khi chúng tôi đã hỗ trợ từ hơn 10 năm qua, hoặc giới thiệu những nghệ sĩ chưa được biết đến nhiều. Dần dần, nhờ công sức, sự kiên trì của chúng tôi, chương trình la belle scène saint-denis đã trở thành một địa điểm nổi tiếng về múa và nhảy. Có rất nhiều chuyên gia đến đây và đôi khi tìm được các nhóm nghệ sĩ mới cho họ, cơ hội để các nghệ sĩ mở rộng sự nghiệp của mình. Đó là lý do tại sao chúng tôi ở đây. Nhưng trước tiên, chúng tôi có một nhà hát ở tỉnh Seine - Saint-Denis, hoạt động quanh năm ở tỉnh để phục vụ người dân. Nhưng chúng tôi cũng có ba đoàn múa hợp tác với chúng tôi hàng năm và chính những nghệ sĩ này đến biểu diễn ở Liên hoan Avignon ». Sáng tạo để tìm nguồn tồn tại Ngoài những nghệ sĩ trong chương trình chính thức “IN”, đa số các đoàn kịch được chọn tham gia chương trình phi chính thức “OFF” tại Liên hoan Avignon đều phải tự xoay sở tài chính. Những tác phẩm được sáng tác cho Liên hoan được nhận một khoản hỗ trợ nhỏ. Đoàn kịch tự lo chi phí lưu trú, địa điểm biểu diễn… Anh Brice của đoàn kịch Plume Pourpre, biểu diễn vở hài nhạc kịch Chân trụ trên các vì sao (Les Keykeepers : Les Pieds dans les étoiles), giải thích : « Đối với các đoàn kịch, đây là một thử thách thực sự. Trước hết, về mặt tài chính, đó là cả một ngân sách. Phải thuê một suất trong rạp hát, phải tìm được chỗ ở tại Avignon. Vì vậy, đó là một khoản đầu tư lớn. Chúng tôi không có nguồn tài trợ công. Tất cả chi phí là tiền của chúng tôi hoặc của các mạnh thường quân. Mục tiêu hiện diện tại Avignon ngày hôm nay đối với một đoàn kịch không phải đến từ Paris mà từ nông thôn như chúng tôi là để có thể quảng cáo chương trình của mình ngoài vùng nông thôn. Và làm thế nào để vở kịch của chúng tôi có thể được biết trên quy mô toàn quốc ? Chỉ có cách là tham gia Liên hoan Avignon hoặc để khai thác ở Paris. Và chúng tôi đã chọn Liên hoan Avignon để được biểu diễn hàng ngày ở một nhà hát trong 3 tuần ». Làm thế nào để có được một khoản kinh phí không phải là nhỏ ? Nghệ sĩ La Belle Époque, đoàn kịch Collectif Rue 46, tác giả vở Hongai tại Liên hoan Avignon, giải thích : « Chúng tôi thực sự cần tiền nên đã phát động một chiến dịch gây quỹ cộng đồng. Chúng tôi đã vượt qua mục tiêu 3.000 euro. Ngoài ra, chúng tôi đã biểu diễn tại nhà theo yêu cầu vào cuối tháng 5, cho nên cũng gây được quỹ. Chúng tôi cũng biểu diễn tại tòa thị chính Quận 11 Paris vào cuối tháng 6. Tương tự, chúng tôi cũng nhận được khoản tài trợ từ thị chính Paris. Tại Liên hoan Avignon, chúng tôi đang cố gắng biểu diễn để tài trợ cho cuộc phiêu lưu này. Sau đó, khi hết hè, có thể sẽ có thêm vài buổi biểu diễn nữa. Chúng tôi sẽ cố gắng gây quỹ để hoàn trả khoản đầu tư cho Liên hoan ». Trong một rừng chương trình biểu diễn tại Liên hoan Avignon, thu hút được sự chú ý của người qua đường - những khán giả tiềm tàng - không phải là điều dễ dàng. Vậy phải làm thế nào ? Frank Milin, nghệ sĩ của đoàn kịch Collectif Rue 46, cho biết : « Chúng tôi đi phát tờ rơi quảng cáo, chúng tôi dành khoảng 3 đến 4 tiếng mỗi ngày để phát tờ rời trên đường phố Avignon. Chúng tôi may mắn khi có khá nhiều nghệ sĩ tham gia vở kịch, cho nên có thể thay phiên nhau trong ngày. Phần lớn thời gian trong ngày được dành cho việc gặp gỡ những khán giả tương lai trên đường phố, giải thích cho họ về tác phẩm của mình, tạo hứng thú để họ đến xem chúng tôi biểu diễn. Những lúc như vậy rất vui vì đó là những cuộc trao đổi thực sự thú vị ». Phát tờ rơi, sáng tạo muôn vàn kiểu quảng cáo trở thành biểu tượng đặc trưng, độc đáo của Liên hoan Avignon. Làm thế nào để tiếp cận một người qua đường, rồi khiến họ dừng chân lại để nghe quảng cáo về vở kịch, trong khi có đến gần 1.800 buổi diễn ? Đó là cả một chiến lược được vạch trước. Nghệ sĩ Franck Milin của Collectif Rue 46 cho biết thêm : « Đó là một ý tưởng mà chúng tôi đã cân nhắc. Chúng tôi đã làm việc một chút trước khi đến Avignon. Nhưng chiến lược đã thay đổi, bởi vì giống như vở kịch, đôi khi phải thích ứng. Tại Avignon, chúng xem điều gì phù hợp, điều gì không, sau đó chúng tôi cân nhắc xem điều gì hiệu quả và điều gì không. Nhưng chúng tôi cố gắng giải thích nhanh cho người qua đường rằng đó là một vở kịch lịch sử nhưng theo cách sân khấu, quay ngược về quá khứ với hai nhân vật chính ». Giảm tài trợ : Khán giả trẻ bị hạn chế tiếp cận văn hóa Việc cắt giảm tài trợ cho các tổ chức văn hóa, nhà hát tác động đến giá vé, vẫn được bán với giá ưu đãi cho một bộ phận công chúng ở một số địa phương, nhất là những khu vực nơi người dân có thu nhập khiêm tốn, như Bà Emmanuelle Jouan, giám đốc Nhà hát Louis Aragon, đã giải thích. Chương trình cổ vũ tiếp cận văn hóa cho khán giả “trẻ” từ 15-21 tuổi cũng sẽ bị tác động do việc tài trợ cho Pass Culture (thẻ thông hành Văn hóa) cũng bị đóng băng. khoảng 84% thanh thiếu niên trong độ tuổi được hưởng đã đăng ký Pass Culture, được chính thức triển khai năm 2021 sau hai năm thử nghiệm. Hơn 35.000 đối tác văn hóa đề xuất cho khán giả trẻ hàng loạt hoạt động văn hóa (biểu diễn, hòa nhạc, giao lưu, hội thảo, triển lãm, tham quan…) hoặc chương trình đào tạo nghệ thuật. Tuy nhiên, Luật Tài chính năm 2025 quy định giảm ngân sách dành cho Pass Culture từ 72 triệu euro xuống còn 52 triệu euro, chia thành hai đợt. Tính đến tháng 03/2025, 40 triệu euro trong số 50 triệu euro được phân bổ đã được giải ngân cho năm học 2024-2025. Kết quả là nhiều trường không tổ chức được hoạt động ngoại khóa vì không tiếp cận được nguồn tài trợ. Toàn cảnh của việc cắt giảm trợ cấp cho văn hóa được bà Aurélie Hannedouche, giám đốc Nghiệp đoàn âm nhạc đương đại (Le Syndicat des musiques actuelles, SMA), tóm tắt khi trả lời đài phát thanh France Culture ngày 16/04 : “Sẽ có ít hoạt động hơn, ví dụ trong các nhà dưỡng lão, nhà trẻ, trường học, các trung tâm xã hội, trại giam hoặc trong những khu vực được xếp là ưu tiên, thậm chí là “ngoài bốn bức tường”, ví dụ như ở nông thôn”.

Comme chaque année, la ville de Limoges accueille des artistes venus du monde entier pour le festival les Zébrures d'automne dirigé par Hassane Kassi Kouyaté. Le 24 septembre 2025, s'est ouvert ce rendez-vous incontournable de la francophonie. Au programme : une trentaine de spectacles dont une dizaine de créations, et près de deux cents artistes réunis dans la ville de Limoges. Pour cette nouvelle édition des Zébrures d'automne, l'accent est mis cette année sur la création francophone arabe. Invité.e.s : Hassane Kassi Kouyaté, metteur en scène et directeur des Zébrures d'automne-Les Francophonies-Des écritures à la scène. Un festival que son directeur qualifie de «voyage, un endroit où on met plusieurs miroirs différents». La francophonie pour moi c'est le mariage ou la naissance entre la langue française et d'autres langues. C'est une francophonie humaine «Le théâtre est un espace de mémoire», nous dit Sumaya Al Attia, metteuse en scène et comédienne franco-jordano-iranienne. Son spectacle «Rekord بیبي» est écrit en deux langues, en français et en arabe, l'occasion d'explorer la dualité de la langue. Le titre du spectacle fait référence au modèle d'Opel («Rekord») détenue par la grand-mère («بیبي» en dialecte irakien) de la metteuse en scène. C'était une évidence pour moi d'écrire le spectacle en deux langues : arabe et français. Cette voiture achetée à Beyrouth, au Liban, par ses grands-parents quand ils ont quitté la France en 1966-1967, a été utilisée pour rejoindre Bagdad où une nouvelle vie commence. C'est un récit d'exil où s'entremêlent l'histoire familiale et la grande histoire avec l'arrivée de Saddam Hussein en Irak. C'est en 2022 que l'autrice a senti la nécessité de creuser l'histoire familiale. La metteuse en scène a travaillé à partir d'entretiens audios qu'elle avait réalisés avec son père. C'est donc à partir des souvenirs d'enfance de son père qui avait huit ans à l'époque qu'elle a écrit ce texte. Elle estime que c'est grâce aux écrits qu'on peut faire vivre la mémoire... Israël Nzila, auteur congolais de 31 ans et lauréat du Prix RFI théâtre 2025 pour son texte «Clipping». Une femme perd son enfant au marché. Mais a-t-elle véritablement perdu cet enfant ? Le retrouvera-t-on ? Les cauchemars lui reviennent... Un texte bouleversant qui raconte les traumas de la guerre. Né à Kinshasa, il est parti s'installer à Lubumbashi et s'est très vite consacré à l'écriture de théâtre. Un auteur qu'on a pu découvrir avec la pièce «Silence» dans le cycle «Ça va, ça va le monde !» à Avignon en 2025. Le théâtre, c'est une existence, il est vivant. Ce n'est pas un simple spectacle. On introduit des spectateurs dans ce qu'on écrit, ça dépasse l'imaginaire. Également dans l'émission : la metteuse en scène Jenny Briffa nous parle de «Racines mêlées», un spectacle créé à Nouméa, en Nouvelle-Calédonie, un récit d'aventures où les destins de Lapérouse, Bougainville et Cook s'entrecroisent autour d'une intrigue liée à l'histoire de la Nouvelle-Calédonie. Programmation musicale du jour : Le groupe iranien Bazaari avec le titre Ce qui n'a pas été.

Under 1300-talet befann sig påvarna i Avignon, det här tillståndet fann många förkastligt. Petrus var begravd i Rom, då borde påven husera i Rom! När en återflytt blev aktuell och ny påve skulle väljas 1378, ja då började kaoset känt som "den stora schismen" eller "den västliga schismen". Det skulle bara finnas en påve, en fader för de rättroende själarna, men plötsligt fanns två! Kulmen nåddes när de blev tre stycken, och det växte fram påvar som huvuden på en hydra. Hur situationen skulle lösas engagerade snart hela Europa, från universitet till bönder och kejsare.Bli prenumerant i form av "Grimbergs utvalda" och få ett extra avsnitt i månaden samt fritt från reklam och sponsorinslag.

Summary Avignon! A city where there is a bridge, and a song about the bridge. And, once, the pope lived there. Why? Let's talk about this weird century. Notes 1/ Avignon: it has a bridge! And a song about the bridge: “Sur le pont d'Avignon.” The bridge is medieval; the song dates from the fifteenth … Continue reading "Episode 95: Sur le Pontif d'Avignon"
Hausse des volumes, prix stables, taux d'intérêt autour de 3,2 % : pour Jordan Frarier, président de Foncia Transaction, c'est le moment d'acheter ou de vendre. Il analyse le marché immobilier en France, les dynamiques régionales et conseille particuliers et pros.Jordan Frarier est l'invité de ce nouvel épisode de Mon Podcast Immo. Au micro d'Ariane Artinian, il dresse un bilan lucide du marché immobilier ancien en 2025 : volumes en hausse de 5 %, prix stables (+1 %), surfaces en progression (+2 %) et taux d'intérêt autour de 3,2 %.Faut-il attendre ou se lancer ? « Les prix sont tout à fait corrects, les taux aussi. On ne sait pas de quoi demain est fait. Il ne faut pas attendre », affirme-t-il. Il encourage particuliers et investisseurs à agir dès maintenant plutôt que parier sur une baisse hypothétique.Quelles villes tirent leur épingle du jeu ? Strasbourg, Nîmes, Avignon affichent une dynamique supérieure à la moyenne nationale, notamment grâce à l'absence d'encadrement des loyers et à des rentabilités attractives. Les grandes métropoles comme Paris et Lyon reprennent des couleurs, tandis que les marchés de résidences secondaires se montrent plus attentistes.Son conseil aux pros : « C'est un marché complexe, l'erreur n'est pas tolérée. Il faut être pédagogique et suivre les vraies règles du marché », rappelle-t-il.
Cet été, re-découvrez deux épisodes qui sentent bon le soleil et les vacances !****************************Le récit des travaux d'un mas provençal entièrement rénové par Delphine et son compagnon !Delphine nous raconte la rénovation de son mas provençal situé entre Avignon et Saint-Rémy de Provence. On connaît tous les mas provençaux, ces belles maisons anciennes typiques de la région du Sud qui présentent certaines particularités, et j'ai pensé que ce serait intéressant d'avoir le retour d'expérience de quelqu'un qui en a rénové un de A à Z !Avec Delphine, on a parlé de l'histoire des mas provençaux, de rebondissements lors de l'achat d'une maison, de permis de construire, de démolition, de sol en granito, de baies vitrées en acier, de béton ciré et de cheminée en pierre, de fabriquer soi-même des meubles, de redonner une unité à une maison qui a été un peu dénaturée et dépareillée dans son style au fil des années, mais aussi de ses études d'architecte et de ce que ça change quand on est archi de rénover pour soi, plutôt que pour ses clients...Elle partage aussi avec vous ses bons contacts d'artisans (à noter si vous habitez dans le Sud !), ses bonnes adresses travaux et ses comptes Instagram préférés pour s'inspirer et échanger sur le sujet.Pendant que vous écoutez cet épisode, je vous invite à vous rendre sur lechantierpodcast.fr pour découvrir le Home tour photos de la maison ainsi que les photos avant/après des travaux, ainsi que sur notre compte Instagram @lechantierpodcast pour découvrir encore plus de photos et vidéos.

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Sixteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 397The Saint of the day is Saint Bridget of SwedenSaint Bridget of Sweden’s Story From age 7 on, Bridget had visions of Christ crucified. Her visions formed the basis for her activity—always with the emphasis on charity rather than spiritual favors. She lived her married life in the court of the Swedish king Magnus II. Mother of eight children—the second eldest was Saint Catherine of Sweden—Bridget lived the strict life of a penitent after her husband's death. Bridget constantly strove to exert her good influence over Magnus; while never fully reforming, he did give her land and buildings to found a monastery for men and women. This group eventually expanded into an Order known as the Bridgetines. In 1350, a year of jubilee, Bridget braved a plague-stricken Europe to make a pilgrimage to Rome. Although she never returned to Sweden, her years in Rome were far from happy, being hounded by debts and by opposition to her work against Church abuses. A final pilgrimage to the Holy Land, marred by shipwreck and the death of her son, Charles, eventually led to her death in 1373. In 1999, Bridget, Saint Catherine of Siena and Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, were named co-patronesses of Europe. Reflection Bridget's visions, rather than isolating her from the affairs of the world, involved her in many contemporary issues, whether they be royal policy or the years that the legitimate Bishop of Rome lived in Avignon, France. She saw no contradiction between mystical experience and secular activity, and her life is a testimony to the possibility of a holy life in the marketplace.

How do you plan a smooth and memorable trip across France using trains, rental cars, and buses? In this episode of the Join Us in France Travel Podcast, titled Navigating France by Train, Car, and Bus, host Annie Sargent chats with Stephen Nicholson about his 24-day journey through France. Stephen and his wife combined different types of transportation to explore big cities, small towns, and hidden gems—without joining a tour group. They started in Paris and used the OuiGo high-speed train to reach Avignon, then added regional trains, rental cars, and local buses to visit places like Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Carcassonne, Sarlat-la-Canéda, and Amboise. Stephen shares practical advice on booking train tickets, rebooking car rentals to save money, and using travel apps to avoid stress. Annie and Stephen also talk about how to find the best parking in small villages, how to use luggage storage services, and why it's smart to plan around French public holidays. They touch on lesser-known challenges like fuel station card holds and using Wise debit cards in Europe. Whether you're planning to travel light, visit Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, or simply get the most out of your trip without overpacking your schedule, this episode is full of useful, real-world tips.
