Dr. Joel Rudman didn't hold back in his recent interview on VERONICA LIVE. He touched on some fiery topics, from criticizing Tallahassee Republicans for their lack of support for Governor Ron DeSantis to addressing the surprising trend of Florida Democrats switching to the Republican Party. His passion for keeping the Panhandle beaches open to the public was clear, and he didn't shy away from calling out Representative Alex Andrade and State Senator Don Gaetz as part of the problems he sees in Tallahassee politics. On a more supportive note, he expressed his backing for Attorney General James Uthmeier. The interview was full of bold opinions and strong stances. Strap your seatbelt on for this eye-opening fast paced interview!

In this insightful solo episode of Thriving in Intersectionality, host Lola Adeyemo challenges the traditional one-to-one mentorship model and introduces a powerful alternative: creating your personal board of directors. Drawing from her experience serving on multiple nonprofit boards and navigating her own career as an immigrant woman of color in STEM, Lola shares a strategic approach to assembling mentors who can address different aspects of your professional development and intersectional identity. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why traditional mentorship models often set both mentors and mentees up for disappointment How to identify gaps in your current mentorship circle Strategies for assembling your personal board of directors across various industries and hierarchy levels Practical approaches to maintaining meaningful relationships with multiple mentors Setting appropriate boundaries and knowing when to evolve or end mentoring relationships Ways to create mutual value in mentoring relationships The Limitations of Traditional Mentorship Lola explains how the conventional one-to-one mentorship model places unrealistic expectations on individual mentors, especially those from underrepresented groups who already face significant pressure in leadership positions. For professionals with multiple intersectional identities, finding a single mentor who understands all aspects of their experience is nearly impossible. This creates a gap between expectations and reality that can leave both parties frustrated. The Board of Directors Approach Drawing from her experience serving on nonprofit boards, Lola introduces a more effective alternative: creating a personal board of directors. This approach distributes the mentorship responsibility across several individuals with complementary skills, experiences, and perspectives. Just as organizations intentionally select board members to fill specific needs, professionals should strategically identify mentors who can address different aspects of their development. Key Steps to Building Your Personal Board: 1. Assemble Your Board Strategically Take inventory of your identity and career aspirations (e.g., woman in STEM, parent, aspiring leader) Identify gaps in your current support network Look for mentors across different experience levels, not just executives Be specific about what you need from each potential board member 2. Maintain Relationships Effectively Create value for your board members (mentorship should be mutually beneficial) Structure different formats for interactions (15-minute check-ins, co-attending events) Establish clear boundaries for each relationship Regularly assess if the relationship is still providing value for both parties Document feedback and keep doors open for future reconnection Final Thoughts Lola emphasizes that distributing mentorship across a "board" of individuals allows professionals to receive more targeted guidance while respecting everyone's time and expertise. This approach recognizes that no single person can fulfill all mentorship needs, especially for those with multiple intersectional identities navigating complex professional environments.

Struggling with business decisions at 3AM? Wish you had Tony Robbins or Simon Sinek on speed dial? The answer might be closer than you think.A powerful AI tool has emerged that could revolutionize how small business owners access expertise and solve problems. By creating an AI-powered board of directors based on actual human experts and their publicly available content, you can now have a virtual advisory team available 24/7.The concept is brilliantly simple yet potentially game-changing. Select 6-10 virtual board members whose thinking aligns with your business values and methodology. These could include visionaries if you're strong on implementation, marketing gurus if that's your weak spot, or financial wizards if numbers make your head spin. The key? Include at least one outlier who challenges your assumptions to avoid echo-chamber thinking.What makes this approach so valuable for small business owners is the unprecedented access to diverse expertise. Whether you're agonizing over pricing strategies, hiring decisions, customer retention problems, or team engagement issues, your virtual board can provide perspectives based on the collective wisdom of your chosen thought leaders. As I discovered while exploring this tool, "the assumption must be AI can do it until AI tells me it can't."Small businesses rarely have the luxury of a traditional board of directors, but this AI approach democratizes access to top-tier business thinking. The virtual board isn't going to do your job for you, but it might provide that one crucial insight that helps you break through a persistent challenge.Ready to create your own AI advisory board? I'd love to hear who makes the cut for your virtual boardroom. Connect with me on Instagram @thepeoplegardener or email ronda@rondadelaney.com to share your experience with this powerful new business tool.

Tune in to a special roundtable episode of ASUG Talks, where Geoff Scott, ASUG CEO & Chief Community, is joined by two ASUG Board Members: Mark LeClair and Craig Dalziel.  A few weeks ago, the three attended the SAP Business Unleashed event in New York, where the software company unveiled the SAP Business Data Cloud along with a new partnership with Databricks.

Key topics covered in their discussion include: How SAP Business Data Cloud integrates into the larger SAP suite of solutions. The ways in which SAP Business Data Cloud can enable customers to improve their data management practices and set a foundation to embrace AI solutions. The three leaders' first impressions of the new solution and partnership. 

Do you sometimes feel like you're mailing it in?Sure, you're achieving your goals, hitting your numbers, and getting boxes checked on your to-do list. On paper, you're a success.But it still feels empty, like something's missing and you're not really succeeding.How do you know for sure? Who's there to help you figure it out? And what example are you setting for those who see you as a role model, even if you don't know they look up to you?These are questions Suresh Bhagchandani found himself grappling with one day while going over his sales numbers with his boss.Suresh was born in raised in India, with three older sisters and his mother. His father died when he was young and his family had limited financial resources but an abundance of strong values. Among the values and beliefs he gained was that if you're a good human and do the right things, good things will come along.When he was 21, he and his mother moved to the United States where he enrolled in community college and then UNC Chapel Hill. Being an immigrant and landing in a small town in North Carolina, he searched for how to fit in in this unfamiliar territory. For one thing, he was stunned by how people here brew and drink coffee! Suresh began to find his purpose, and his friends, when he got involved in organizations and activities that placed him in social situations.This gave him a fine appreciation of the power of networking, which catalyzed his life that day when his bosses told him he was doing a “fine” job – but Fine is a 4-Letter Word.This is a conversation about what it means to adapt, push past limitations, and create opportunities. And I love that we get into not only the importance, but the power, of properly identifying your friends, acquaintances, and the various roles different people play in your life. Like, do you have a “board of directors” who guide you in your decisions? And if you've decided that 100% is just mailing it in, how do you get to 120%? What will your kids think?Hang on because first…Suresh's hype song is "Started From The Bottom" by Drake.Resources:Suresh Bhagchandani's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sureshlb Also, be sure to listen to our recent episode, Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It, for an important lesson in the practice of gratitude.Invitation from Lori:This episode is sponsored by Zen Rabbit. Smart business leaders know trust is the foundation of every great workplace. And in today's hybrid and fast-moving work culture, trust isn't built in quarterly town halls or the occasional Slack message. It's built through consistent, clear, and HUMAN communication. Companies and leaders TALK about the importance of connection and community. And it's easy to believe your organization is doing a great job of maintaining an awesome corporate culture. Because you've got annual all-hands and open door policies, and “fun" team-building events.But let's be real. Leaders who are serious about building real trust are finding better ways to strengthen culture, create connection, and foster community.That's where I come in. Forward thinking companies are hiring me to produce internal/private podcasts. To bring leadership and employees together through authentic stories, real conversations, and meaningful connections. Think of it as your old-school printed company newsletter - reinvented for the modern workforce. I KNOW, what a cool idea, right?!...

On this episode of The Angel Next Door Podcast, we dive into an unconventional exit strategy that prioritizes employees and community sustainability.

Follow your passion! In this episode, I share valuable lessons I learned along the way to being elected to the ASPDA Board of Directors in 2023. I also talk about how to get involved in the industry, what I wish I knew starting out, and so much more! If you are interested in taking your career to the next level, this episode is for you! Head to https://sportsrd.org/about-us/board-of-directors/ to learn more about the Board of Directors and all of the ASPDA programming. I am incredibly grateful for every past, present and future board member, this episode is dedicated to you. Thanks for your support along the way! *For context, when speaking on the episode regarding CPSDA and ASPDA: in July 2024 CPSDA was renamed to the American Sports and Performance Dietitians Association (ASPDA). The choice of “American” reflects our aspiration to elevate ourselves as the national leader in our field. “Sports and Performance” acknowledges the diverse range of practicing members, many of whom identify as Sports RDs or Performance Dietitians. Lastly, “Dietitian” reinforces our commitment to our profession as the vast majority of our members are registered dietitians and this is the clearest way to distinguish us from the plethora of nutrition gurus.I help sports dietitians break into the field, find their niche and start their career with confidence!

"Have people that you can trust to receive their honest opinion and advice, while keeping space for you to make your own decisions, without them trying to micromanage or direct you" A personal board of directors can transform careers and lives. Like many, I hadn't been deliberate in setting up my own personal board. Yet, I unknowingly have a network of trusted advisors shaping my path. Katie compared it to the eclectic cast of the show The Big Bang Theory, where each person brings their unique flair and insights to the table. A personal board is not just about having people you trust or people that are from similar professions. A well balanced board has a dynamic mix of diverse perspectives to guide and even challenge you. This board isn't about holding meetings with agendas though. It is about leaning on the people you trust for professional or even personal guidance. As you think about your own board, be aware of how you may play a key role on someone else's board. Think of it as a dance of advice and encouragement. Setting up a personal board can provide that critical support and validation. Those are the people that can help you through changes in your organization or give you the nudge to continue pursuing your dream job even when the path gets rocky.  Offer value to your mentors, as they do for you. Recognize their guidance, implement their advice, and maintain a reciprocal relationship. In the world of career growth, the mutual respect with your personal board of directors has a way of turning advice into inspiration.
