In some ways, we can see that humanity is on a continuous divide, and people are aware of this. But instead of bringing solutions, the problem gets even worse. In this episode, Kiri-Maree shares her amazing insights about the previous Global Human Intelligence episode with Brian Grim. One of the concepts that she gave a thorough discussion on is how to establish a better ecosystem by exercising the six types of intelligence. These intelligences are immediate, effective, acceleration, powerhouse, sustainable and human. Kiri-Maree believes that when we start using these intelligences together, we start to create a change in our culture. We develop a possibility wherein our children can generate systems that encourage a healthy environment for the next generations to come. Kiri-Maree knows that if we really want to narrow the gap, we have to bring distinctions and start making collective decisions that will have a positive impact not only on ourselves but also on others. And the only way to do this is if we start exercising the different types of intelligence given to us.

Though many might confuse an entrepreneur with a business leader, the call of the entrepreneur is unique. It's about building something from the ground up versus managing something that is already there. And we especially need creators today. If we don't have inventors, then there's one less thing that can inspire the next entrepreneur and the next great idea. Managers would have nothing to lead without someone breathing it into existence first. In this episode of our podcast, we are joined by Brian Grim, the founding president of the Religious Freedom and Business Foundation. The foundation aims to demonstrate how the freedom to pursue faith creates an environment where innovation is bountiful. Brian was inspired into motion when he observed a lack of people who really understood religious freedom and how little people tried to incorporate it into the workplace and is now president of this very successful organization. He has worked on this issue all over the globe – in China, the Soviet Union, the Middle East, and Europe. Many have gone before us with just a simple idea and call to help change the world. And we need more of it. Grim encourages everyone to go out and get their hands dirty. When you are in the thick of it, that is where you be able to see what you can do that no one else has done before.

In this episode of The Forum Podcast, Dr. Brian Grim, Kent Johnson, and Paul Lambert of the Religious Freedom & Business Foundation offer best practices to build successful & diverse religiously inclusive workplaces. Companies are increasingly intrigued or concerned about the growing emphasis on religious diversity at work. Increasingly, company leaders are realizing that, for many employees, it is their faith, more than any other single factor, that defines their core identity. When corporate culture constrains them from referring to their faith at work, they feel devalued, and forced “under cover.” They feel they can't “be themselves.” They can become alienated from their work. Yet, many business leaders have no idea how to approach the topic of faith and belief in the workplace. They wonder: What are the best practices in this area? What are pitfalls to avoid? What can/should be done? We at the Religious Freedom & Business Foundation have been working for years with companies that are trailblazers in religious diversity. We can report that there is a better way. Join us to learn more! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/fwi/support

  Religious freedom expert Brian Grim explains why religious restrictions are bad news for everybody. --- "Where faith is restricted for people, it makes them start to question: Does this society even want me? Do they value me?" Religious adherence is growing around the world - and so are restrictions on religion. Dr Brian Grim is President of the Religious Freedom and Business Foundation, and has lived in many places where religion is heavily restricted. He talks to Simon Smart about why religious freedom is good not only for society but also for business, and why he's optimistic that people of different faiths can live together well. "Where you have religious freedom, and a rich pluralism of ideas, and faith is part of the natural dialogue of society - it's not imposed and not removed - then you find better lives for everyone." --- This episode was first broadcast on 13 February 2015.

October 20, 2011 What happens when a government places restrictions on religious freedom? What does a society lose if religion is outlawed or persecuted? The Religious Freedom Project at the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs hosted sociologists Brian Grim and Roger Finke as they addressed these and other questions raised in their new book, The Price of Freedom Denied. Examining the worldwide state of religious freedom, Grim and Finke conclude that circumscribing or delimiting religious expression in the name of freedom serves neither the interests of the government nor the polity to whom they are responsible for protection. Rather than protecting citizens from religion in the public sphere, the authors find that religious repression or restriction is instead linked to persecution, radicalization, and potentially violence. The event included a response from Jose Casanova and was moderated by Eric Patterson.
