In part two of our series with Chancellor Mark Mone and Provost Johannes Britz of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, we're talking all about research. UWM is one of the few universities in the nation with the R1 distinction - the highest level designation for research activity a university can attain. In this episode, we talk about what it takes to maintain this distinction and some of the research projects being carried out at UWM that are serving the region. You'll learn about:Partnering with other institutions on research projectsIIoT, smart manufacturing and the Connected Systems InstituteHow the Maggi Sue will enable more research on Lake Michigan than ever beforeThe importance of technology and connectivityWhy organizations like Rockwell, Dell, Cisco and WE Energies have backed UWM's research
Emerging leaders have a great opportunity to impact organizational cultures in a way that supports the evolution to modern leadership, says Laurie Maddalena, MBA, CPCC, PHR, in this episode.“They bring in these expectations and these values that I think are more modern,” says Maddalena, a certified executive coach, leadership consultant and founder of CUES Supplier member Envision Excellence LLC in the Washington, D.C., area, which provides coaching to participants in the CUES Emerge program. “We need more of this modern type of leader” who is focused on getting results through people rather than on just getting results at all costs.During the show, Maddalena talks about how generational, technological and family trends are pushing the evolution of leadership. “The reason … I bring those up is because those impact our workplaces … our cultures and what people expect now compared to 25-30 years ago,” she says. “And that type of leader doesn't work anymore, the traditional command and control, more results-focused, very little empathy, check your personal life at the door. It doesn't resonate with today's generations and what people's expectations aren't work today.”Despite all the changes, Maddalena emphasizes the importance of leaders building trust with employees.“Trust is built over time,” she explains, “and it's the small actions we take or sometimes don't … that build trust and cohesion or break trust and cohesion down …. The first way you develop trust is to get to know each individual on your team and understand that they have their own goals, their own preferences and needs beyond the workplace, and get to know them as people and what's important to them and then learn to adjust your management style to be able to ignite ownership in them and bring out their best.“Another (way to build trust) is to model great leadership,” she continues. “If we're expecting our employees to follow through and be on time and serve our members exceptionally, we also need to be modeling that behavior for employees.“A huge way to build trust to make sure that we're developing them, coaching them, taking an interest in our employees, investing our time and energy in them,” she adds, noting that young people in particular want meaningful work.Maddalena says most organizations aren’t making the shift to modern leadership fast enough to be exceptional workplaces. In the show, she gives several suggestions for evolving your leadership, including letting go of promoting people into leadership based on technical ability rather than leadership ability and making sure to teach leaders how to lead.The show also gets into:How Maddalena identified the key shift toward modern leadershipWhy some credit union employees were actually more satisfied with their work during the pandemic than beforeThe pandemic's silver lining for the evolution of leadershipLinks for this show:Laurie Maddalena on LinkedInEnvision Excellence LLCCUES EmergeMaddalena’s video on kind leadership and podcast on how modern leaders must be facilitators, not fixersShow transcript

How to Exchange Your Anxious Heart for a Peaceful Heart Podcast #415 Anxiety, or overwhelm, can make your spirit feel crushed, and your life feel stuck. I know, I've lived that life. In this podcast episode we are going to pull back the curtain on what living with anxiety looks like and talk about some effective ways to help alleviate and manage the anxiety on a daily basis that has worked for me and for my students. God invites us into a life of peace - and He can take our anxious heart and exchange it for one that is peace-filled. Let's talk about how we can step into that together in this conversation. Get the full show notes at www.trishblackwell.com/415 In this episode of The Confidence Podcast, we'll be talking about: My anxiety story - something I've never really shared beforeThe differences between what anxiety says and what peace says5 effective daily habits that have helped my anxiety REVIEW OF THE WEEK: StrengthSeeker, 5 stars Trish - I truly feel that God led me to discover your podcast and your virtual friendship! In June I was struggling in a 25-year marriage to the father of our four kids. I couldn’t find the strength to make a change that could deeply impact our whole family. I also had a boss who had started marginalizing and demeaning me daily in my already stressful career. Between work and home life I felt like I was getting beaten down 24/7. It was exhausting and it was breaking me. Even thought I have strong spiritual life and great group of Christian friends I needed a cheerleader. I needed confidence. I "randomly" discovered your coaching and it was exactly what I needed. The first episode I listened to was "How to Have Difficult Conversations" and I was hooked. I was able to work with my husband to decide that divorce was the best thing for our whole family. We're in the thick of the process now and your weekly pep talks are getting me through. I love the way you blend faith-based statements with real life relevance. I especially like the way you provide a number of tips or steps to accent your coaching message. For busy women like me I find myself replaying those tips constantly. When I wake up on Tuesdays I’m always more energized - it's Trish Day! I listen to you on my commute into work and it sets the course for the rest of the week. Thank you for cheering me on! You are amazing. BONUS PODCAST EPISODES - EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE FOR OUR PATRONS.

No need to sparkle. No need to be anyone but oneself. -Virginia Woolf “Stress is an ignorant state. It believes that everything is an emergency. Nothing is that important.” —Natalie Goldberg “Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strength.” —Charles Spurgeon “Anxiety is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.” —Arthur Somers Roche “Just when the caterpillar thought the world was ending, he turned into a butterfly.” —Anonymous proverb “Do what you can, with what you’ve got, where you are.” —Theodore Roosevelt “Anxiety’s like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but it doesn’t get you very far.” —Jodi Picoult “Life is ten percent what you experience and ninety percent how you respond to it.” —Anonymous “People become attached to their burdens sometimes more than the burdens are attached to them.”

This podcast interview focuses on product innovation around seemingly ‘ignored’ areas of data, and my guest is Danny Goh.Danny is a serial entrepreneur and an early stage investor. He is the General Partner of G&H Ventures fund, which invests in early-stage start-ups primarily in Southeast Asia. G&H Ventures has invested in more than 20 portfolios in deep tech and is building its third fund to help start-ups into the growth stage.He has also co-founded Innovatube Frontier Labs (IFL), which later merged with Nexus. Innovatube is a technology group that operates an R&D lab in software and AI developments and acts as an incubator to foster the local start-up community in Southeast Asia. It has a team of researchers and engineers to develop cutting-edge deep technology to help start-ups and enterprises bolster their operational capabilities.Danny currently serves as an Entrepreneurship Expert at the Said Business School, University of Oxford and is also an appointed Fellow at the Center for Policy and Competitiveness at the École des Ponts Business School. He is an advisor and judge to several technology start-ups and accelerators including Microsoft Accelerator, Startupbootcamp IoT, and LBS Launchpad. Danny serves as a visiting lecturer at various universities in Europe and he is a speaker at various conferences including TEDx and World Economic Forum.Last but not least he’s the Founder and CEO of Nexus FrontierTech, an AI research firm that easily integrates AI into organisations’ processes by using natural language processing to transform idle information into structured data, enabling them to run better, leaner, and faster.And that promise intrigued me, hence I invited Danny to my podcast. We explore the enormous value opportunity that millions of organizations leave untouched around unstructured data simply because the ‘can’t manage it’. We also explore Danny’s vision on how the world is changing from an app-centric world into a skill-centric world and how that will influence the way we can create solutions going forward. Here are some of his quotes:One key area that has been helping clients the most, which is to actually help clients to manage their data in a better way.And the biggest problem is, they don't know how to manage those data. And when I say those data, they are like, maybe PDF, graphics, and so on. Those data are not really useful. And what we did, we created the engines, the machine learning engines, to read those documents, and then extract it out. And then human can use all their analytical skills and statistical models to create something out of it.The advantage that we give to them, is they’re one step ahead of their competitors.That to the client is unimaginable beforeThe efficiencies and the accuracies that we bring to them allows them to imagine a lot more. It allows them to create more business opportunities.When they have a new tool that suddenly upgrades their level to the next level, then suddenly they know they can go beyond their limits.During this interview, you will learn three things:That incredible innovation opportunity is often right in front of us, we are just too busy or too ignorant to see itHow ‘skills’ will be the answer to making AI and Machine Learning more accessible and change the way we’re creating solutions Why, in order to be successful, you have to stay persistent and remove the temptations to drift away from your vision See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Hark ye! Hast thou ever heard the tale of pillage?Of pillage and plunder? Do well and listen, ye dogLet me regale a tale so fierce and fabledForever etched upon the mind of you, listenerFour sea dogs set sail to capture untold treasuresLike the hawk who clutches its prey in sharp talonsThey sought to grasp the riches, riches, richesThey knew not what troubles awaited on perilous watersO'er yonder, there laid on the bright and vast horizonO'er yonder, a ship whose crew were caught unawaresO'er yonder, the four set sail, full speed aheadO'er yonder, gold and gems, their eyes were set to bearWas it with remorse or lust that they looked to acquireThe wealth of a man's kingdom within the hullWooden, wainscoted, waterborne, a man's treasuryEmptying his coffers, livelihood forever purloinedNe'er a thought the pirates across the waters would starveScraping for food off the streets, dirtied and wornSea dogs becoming stray dogs, begging for table scrapsNo, there wasn't a single thread of remorseOnly a gleam or glimmer had shone in the four's eyesAwaiting destiny for too long stirred a lust so unquenchedThey blasted the hull of the ship, laying waste and carnageBlood and water mixed, like it had so many times beforeThe four had sunk the enemy, had secured the treasureTheir lust and greed had been fulfilled upon this dayGuns shot in the air in triumph, the sound of victorySuddenly, the sky grew dark, the clouds ominousThe sea stirred; water swirled and raged; the windGusted and blew, tearing the mast straight off the vesselA whirlpool began to form next to the fourWell, ho! Look there! Something emerged from the deepWhite hair, long and straight, sat atop a giant with a beardA crown of gold garnished the giant's regal headA trident, massive and sharp, was held next to the kingHere now was the god of the seas, the fearsome PoseidonHe stared long and hard at the four, ponderingWhat his response would entail, ponderingHe raised his trident, how mighty it looked in the skiesAnd brought it down, crashing down, killing the fourThis week on the Chompcast, we could just not tear ourselves away from Sea of Thieves, as we had yet another adventure. We also managed to talk about mythology in video games, both in setting and influence. We cover an interesting Bio Break regarding the discovery of 30+ new species in a previously-undiscovered area of the ocean. Last, we cover the activity of the social media landscape and a listener email. Hark, ye!
