In this insightful episode, Michael D. Levitt explores the Square Management System Alignment Model, a framework by Matthew Person designed to foster organizational alignment without the need for micromanagement. Developed by Matthew from Town Square Advisors, this model is grounded in real-world executive and M&A experience. It focuses on aligning employee beliefs and behaviors with company systems to prevent culture drift and enable long-term, sustainable growth. Michael underscored the urgent need for such systems, sharing examples of organizations that significantly improved through alignment—not turnover—by earning employee trust and recognizing internal capability. The Power of “Constrained Independence” Matthew introduced the concept of constrained independence, a four-part management model built on Identity, Instruction, Intercommunication, and Information, with ten key operational elements. This framework helps leaders strike a balance between empowering staff and maintaining clarity. Listeners were invited to assess their own organizations using a free quiz at TownSquareAdvisors.com. Michael emphasized the importance of continuous monitoring and cultural measurement—warning that top-down approaches to diversity and alignment can sometimes lead to unintended tension unless rooted in authenticity and openness. Lessons from Championship Teams Drawing from professional sports, Michael shared a compelling analogy about leadership, team culture, and performance. While the 1990s New York Yankees focused on acquiring high-priced talent, it was the Boston Red Sox's commitment to balanced teams and deep culture, under leaders like Tito Francona, that ultimately led to their championships. The lesson? A deep bench, clear roles, and trust in your team's abilities drive real, repeatable success. Trust, Decision-Making, and Human-Centered Leadership Trust emerged as a recurring theme—especially in how it empowers independent decision-making and employee engagement. Matthew contrasted toxic, high-constraint workplaces with cultures that reward initiative. Michael reflected on his own experience of being hired for his potential, not just his résumé, and how adaptable systems that honor both organizational needs and individual strengths pave the way for high-performance cultures. Hiring, Retention, and Thriving Work Environments With over 18 years of leadership experience, Michael emphasized the importance of cultivating an environment where employees can grow, not just work. Culture isn't one-size-fits-all—it's about designing systems and environments where your people can thrive. He challenged the myth of a “correct culture,” advocating instead for cultural authenticity and values-based alignment tailored to each organization. Ethical Offboarding and Supporting Career Growth When it comes to letting people go, Michael shared his values-driven approach: treat exits with dignity, and support people in finding better fits elsewhere. Drawing on personal experiences from both sides of the table, he emphasized the long-term value of trust, transparency, and doing what's best for the individual, even when it's a tough call. Culture Meets Data: Using Analytics to Lead Smarter To round out the discussion, Matthew dove into how the Square Management System uses analytics to assess culture across various organizational levels. This diagnostic tool is especially helpful for startups and mission-driven entrepreneurs aiming to build cohesive teams from the start. The system doesn't promise perfection, but it delivers clarity—giving leaders the actionable insights they need to close culture gaps, improve communication, and align operations with purpose. Listeners are encouraged to explore the free tools and resources at TownSquare-Advisors.com. Welcome to another episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, where we dive deep with leaders reshaping how we work, lead, and live. Today's guest is Matt Person—a strategic powerhouse with more than two decades of experience in M&A, organizational design, and aligning people with purpose. Matt is the mind behind the Square Management System, a practical framework that brings clarity and cohesion to companies' operations by aligning people, processes, and performance. His upcoming book, The Culture of Alignment, explores this in depth and is a must-read for leaders building resilient, high-performing organizations. With a career that spans global corporate development, private equity-backed ventures, and even a decade in professional baseball leadership, Matt brings a truly unique perspective. Recognized as a Rising Star by the Colorado Springs Business Journal and a Thought Leader of the Year finalist by the Alliance of M&A Advisors, his credentials are only matched by his passion for excellence. Matt holds an MBA and an MS in Finance from Boston College, and a degree from Colgate University. He's a guest lecturer, frequent industry speaker, and lives just outside Boston with his family—when he's not refining growth strategies, you'll find him on the golf course, hunting down vintage cars, or scouting out his next favorite restaurant.

Lessons from the exercise will be used to better inform the implementation of the Space Force's new International Partnership Strategy. Laura Winter speaks with Air Marshal Paul “Godders” Godfrey, the Assistant Chief of Space Operations for Future Concepts and Partnerships, and the highest-ranking non-U.S. officer serving in the Space Force. He was the Director of the 609th Air Operations Centre in Al Udeid before becoming the inaugural Commander of U.K. Space Command.
The transport sector, particularly in road network operations and management, is experiencing a period of significant and rapid change globally. This disruption is directly affecting how people and industry access, navigate and use transport and road networks. Expectations around transport, travel needs and user behaviour are shifting. More broadly, these changes are contributing to the growing momentum to improve how we live and work, and how our cities function and evolve. As a result, the capabilities needed to manage and operate transport networks are also changing quickly. The changes within the sector can be grouped into five key areas: network safety technological advancements environmental sustainability and climate change shifting network demands evolving customer and stakeholder expectations In response, Austroads has commissioned the Road Manager Operations Capability Framework, supported by a research report. Together, these outline how road managers can effectively respond to emerging trends in transport operations. The framework identifies four core capabilities: communication, stakeholder engagement, leadership and change management. It also outlines four operational capabilities: network management, incident and event management, system management, and data and insights. Each capability is supported by a set of skills mapped against a proficiency matrix. The webinar, presented by Richard Boggon and Thomas D'Arcy, explores the trends shaping the future of road network operations. It also provides a detailed overview of the capability framework, the skills and proficiencies it defines, and how it can be applied and adopted within the sector.
From 109-pound homeless heroin addict to multimillionaire entrepreneur, Khalil Rafati's brain literally rewired itself using the same neurochemical pathways that once destroyed him. Here's what blew my mind: he didn't fight his dopamine addiction, he strategically replaced it with life-giving sources like cold-pressed juices, raw nutrition, and consistent morning routines. When you flood your system with nutrient-dense foods instead of toxins, neuroplasticity does the heavy lifting — your brain rebuilds itself at the cellular level.

Jensen Huang on why AI will be indispensable, how he uses AI, synthetic data and AI generated knowledge in 10 years to be 99% on all AIs, and his own American Dream. This Part 3 is the third and last 10-minute segment of a 3-part recording of Jensen Huang's entire 30-minute talk in Stanford on July 26, 2025. Part 3 Summary: to read Pt. 3 as a 5-min blog To watch Pt. 3 as a 16-minute video Part 3 Summary: Jensen Huang advised young people to learn how to reason and break things down to first principles. To know what the first principles are: “Go to school!” In answering the concerns about human collective intelligence of managing the collective intelligence of AGI, Jensen Huang stated that “... human generated knowledge and human generated data would today be 99%, in about 10 years it will probably be 1%. The vast majority of human knowledge will be generated by AI. It will be AI generated data that the other AIs learn from,...it's going to be synthetic generated intelligence. …that's just intelligence, it is not a big deal, It's just data…that the amount of AI generated knowledge is to be incredibly high.” (Comments from Joanne Z. Tan:) I respectfully disagree with Jensen Huang regarding synthetic data: I wrote an article (link below) seven months ago, analogizing the danger of synthetic data to Norman Rockwell's famous painting, “The Gossips”. What may start as a story about a “cat”, may end up being about an “elephant” after being passed through 15 people. It is therefore important to label data either as originating from a source or as synthetic, before being used to train AI and becoming untraceable, to avoid misinformation that can cause catastrophes like a financial market meltdown. Here is my article: https://10plusbrand.com/2025/01/13/synthetic-data-ai-toxic-assets-financial-crises-2008-1987-joanne-z-tan/ This point is echoed by a prominent expert in the AI fintech industry, who was also a chief data officer at both state and federal government levels, in the “Interviews of Notables and Influencers”. The subheadings about synthetic data speak for themselves: https://10plusbrand.com/2025/04/07/ai-future-synthetic-data-ai-mistakes-ai-governance-crypto-regulations-knowledge-economy-tammy-roust-interview-joanne-z-tan/ (At 46'21”): “Untagged synthetic data pose systemic risks; model collapse; The real danders from AI hallucination” (At 49'56”): “Need for auto tagging of synthetic data when it is being generated and used; the danger of group think” and “We need to have a human consensus mechanism & AI governance committee to correct AI's mistakes”. Jensen Huang said this about AI: “You want the smartest friends? You want the most productive friends?...go engage AI as fast as possible, because they're super, super smart and they're going to help you solve problems.” “It's also the case that we want second opinions, and third opinions. I use multiple AIs at the same time solving the same problems. And I take the answers from one and I give it to the other one. I'll make the second one judge the first one: What do you think about this answer?...And I ask each one of them to produce, you know, based on everything that you've now learned, why don't you reflect on what I told you and what I gave you, and then give me a better answer. And so you notice I'm interacting with AI the way I interact with people, I want them on my side, I want them to work with me.” (Comments from Joanne Z. Tan:) The above sounds like circular reasoning to me. If nothing is done to label synthetic data used by all AI models, what makes their second and third opinions any more reliable? Without holding AI accountable by resorting to “first principle thinking” that Jensen Huang has applied over and over, what makes AI smarter or credible? Assuming that Jensen Huang's preference for human control over AI tools is not hijacked by AI yet, AI is threatening human intelligence with this “double whammy”: By automating tasks, AI will take away the OPPORTUNITY for humans to learn the basic skills that train their minds to advance to higher level positions; By relinquishing analytical and critical thinking to AI, human mental acuity will be degraded. Without doing the thinking ourselves to practice and strengthen the skills, humanity will lose reasoning CAPABILITY by relying on AI. Finally, Jensen reflected on the American melting pot, amazing opportunities, and the rule of law for both immigrants and Americans. He said it is a combination that is “SO delicate, … it depends on so many things working together, …. It is not a guarantee, … I really hate to see us squander that… I hope that we continue to protect that.” Regarding the competition between China and the US, he said “competition is great, but conflict is less good.” He cautioned that what is going on between governments and countries ought not to be conflated with how individual American Chinese who are pursuing the American Dream are treated. ©Joanne Z.

Founders these days are building businesses for different reasons. Many of us have our basic needs met, according to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, which provides a unique opportunity in time to build things that reach closer to self-actualization.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Brenda Campbell. Imagine receiving a hysterical phone call from your college-bound daughter: five small purchases under $5 each have just triggered $195 in overdraft fees—$39 per transaction for what seemed like innocent mistakes. For Brenda, this became an opportunity to calmly help her daughter learn an invaluable financial lesson. Brenda takes us from her childhood in a family of seven where mac and cheese was stretched into soup to feed everyone, through her journey as the first in her family to attend college, to becoming Wisconsin's leading advocate for teen financial literacy. Her story reveals how well-timed money conversations paired with financial literacy can transform someone's entire financial future. Brenda Campbell is the President and CEO of SecureFutures, a nonprofit she has led since its inception in 2006.

AI isn't just a tool for writing faster. It's the key to systematically expanding your professional capabilities and breaking free from the “experience prison” that's been capping your income. In this week's episode, we dive into a powerful shift in mindset for freelancers: moving from viewing AI as a speed or productivity tool to leveraging it as a capability multiplier. I share how I used AI to confidently take on new, high-value projects I would have previously turned down. And how you can do the same to expand your business without months of study or expensive training. If you've ever declined a project because it felt outside your expertise—or you're worried about getting left behind in a rapidly changing market—this episode will change the way you think about your business, your income ceiling, and the true role of AI in your freelance journey. What You'll Learn: Why your “experience” might actually be limiting your income and opportunities The five capability gaps silently constraining most freelancers (and how to identify yours) How AI can help you confidently expand into higher-value projects without years of training A mindset shift from “What do I know?” to “What can I confidently figure out?” Practical ways to use AI systematically to multiply your expertise, efficiency, and strategic value Key Insights and Takeaways The “Experience Prison” Is Real We're taught to say “no” to projects outside our wheelhouse to protect our reputation or out of fear and insecurity. But in today's market, this mindset is costing you opportunities, relationships, and income. And I make the case that it could eventually cost you your business. Every “no” trains your clients—and yourself—to see you as limited in capability. The Five Capability Gaps You Need to Address Craft Gaps – Skills, formats, and project types you avoid Efficiency Gaps – Outdated workflows that drain time and energy Industry Gaps – Sectors you avoid because you feel underqualified Domain/Topic Gaps – Complex topics you shy away from Strategic Gaps – Advisory conversations you deflect out of uncertainty Each gap is a revenue leak—and AI can help you close them systematically. Why AI Changes Everything AI enables you to remove the knowledge and experience constraints that limit what you can confidently offer. It's like having a tireless panel of experts on call to help you master new skills, enter new industries, and have strategic conversations that position you as a trusted advisor—not an order-taker. From Constraint to Confidence Stop using AI randomly and start using it systematically: Identify your biggest capability gaps. Use AI to help you master new formats, optimize workflows, learn industries, and structure strategic conversations. Watch your confidence, client results, and income grow. Action Steps You Can Take This Week Identify Your Biggest Capability Gap Is it a project type, industry, or type of conversation you avoid? Write it down. Experiment with AI as Your Thought Partner Use ChatGPT or Claude to help you break down a complex project you've avoided, research an industry you want to enter, develop a new strategic framework, or role-play an important client conversation. Reframe Your Mindset Shift from “I don't do that” to “Can I deliver exceptional value here if I had the right support?” Track Your Wins Each successful expansion creates a feedback loop of confidence → bigger projects → more income → further capability growth.

Episode Summary: The Air Force increasingly needs a broader set of munitions to achieve mission effects in the modern age. Combat operations in Afghanistan and Iraq required a specific range of capabilities. Tomorrow's fights will be different. We need to ensure that we evolve our munitions toolkit to cover these new mission demands. This is especially true when looking at missions in the Indo Pacific—where the threat environment, factors involving range, weather, and mission performance are going to demand a broader range of technical solutions. Join Heather Penney as she speaks with Raytheon's Maj. Gen. Jon Norman, USAF (Ret.) about how he and his team are responding to this new paradigm.

What separates entrepreneurs who collapse under pressure from those who come back stronger? Sasha Tripp—a real estate entrepreneur who survived financial disaster, market crashes, and personal crises—shares how she transformed adversity into her greatest breakthrough. Discover the mindset shifts that helped her lead with resilience and rebuild her business, and how Strategic Coach® gave her the tools to turn chaos into clarity. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:What made Sasha realize that she had to either improve her skill set or get into sales.Why the sky's the limit in real estate if you have the right work ethic.Why Sasha thinks she might never be employable again.How Sasha's entrepreneurial path and her Strategic Coach journey have always overlapped.The hardest thing Sasha has ever had to go through. Show Notes: True entrepreneurship is tested in the valleys, not just the peaks. You can't tell if someone's a really great entrepreneur in the best of times because they have a lot of supports in place. The 4 C's Formula®—Commitment, Courage, Capability, and Confidence—is the foundation of overcoming any challenge. It requires courage and commitment to gain new capabilities and confidence. Confidence feels good. Courage feels lousy. If there are going to be problems in the marketplace, residential real estate is where it shows up first. When everything falls apart, your mindset determines whether you rebuild or retreat. Entrepreneurship isn't about avoiding risk; it's about managing fear while moving forward. Entrepreneurs have the freedom to pivot and change when it makes the most sense to do so. If you don't have the answer yet, it might be that you haven't thought of the right question. Strategic Coach isn't about tactics; it's about training yourself to ask better questions. Strategic Coach is a community of unbiased people you can talk to about your challenges. You can want what you want. You don't have to justify it. Your business should fit your life, not the other way around. The fastest way to grow isn't working harder, it's thinking differently.

On June 13th, Israel launched attacks on several military and nuclear facilities in Iran, marking the beginning of a 12-day war between the two countries. The United States followed with targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear sites to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power and posing a threat to regional and global stability. China's involvement in the conflict was limited to condemning the Israeli and US use of military force and calling for de-escalation. Beijing offered only rhetorical support for Tehran. To discuss what the Israel-Iran war reveals about China's relationship with Iran, its evolving strategy in the Middle East, and the broader implications for US-China competition, we are joined by Yun Sun on the podcast today. Yun is a Senior Fellow, co-Director of the East Asia Program and Director of the China Program at the Stimson Center. Her recent piece in The Wire China entitled “How China Sees Iran's Future” offers provides a nuanced take on Beijing's calculus during and after the war.

Lancelot 'Capability' Brown is known throughout the world as the master of the English landscape garden. A visionary who created carefully curated, idyllic and natural-looking landscapes at many of the greatest country houses in England, Brown is one of those true 'greats' after whom a whole style is named; the 'Brownian' landscape continues to inspire and entrance gardeners, landscape designers and punters alike.But Brown's style wasn't without controversy... many felt that his reckless sweeping away of traditional formal gardens and parterres (replacing them with lawns, ha-has and rolling parks) was the height of vandalism.In this episode, Geoff gives Rory a whistle-stop overview of the life of Capability Brown from his humble birth to sudden death. We discuss the controversies surrounding Brown's style, and reflect on his extraordinary genius and long-term legacy.Please join us for a 'walk in the [Capability Brown] park' and if you like this episode please like it and write us a review.

Während die Ukraine mit massiven russischen Luftangriffen überzogen wird, muss sie befürchten, im Abwehrkampf von den USA im Stich gelassen zu werden. Washington könnte sämtliche Waffenlieferungen an die Ukraine stoppen – selbst die, die der ehemalige Präsident Joe Biden zugesagt hatte. Dabei geht es vor allem um Waffen für die Luftverteidigung, berichtet Stefan Niemann. Er fasst Russlands Reaktionen auf das US-amerikanische Vorgehen zusammen, analysiert die Motive in Washington und beschreibt die Lage an der Front. Dort gibt es nur wenige „Lichtblicke“ für die Ukraine. Host Anna Engelke blickt außerdem auf den NATO-Gipfel zurück. Dabei hatten die 32 Mitgliedstaaten beschlossen, dass künftig jedes Land fünf Prozent der Wirtschaftsleistung für Verteidigung ausgibt, mindestens 3,5 Prozent davon sind klassische Militärausgaben. Was das für das Thema Rüstung in Deutschland und Europa heißt, bespricht Anna mit dem Sicherheitsexperten Christian Mölling. Der Senior Fellow bei der Denkfabrik European Policy Center erklärt, wie sich die NATO-Pläne von früheren unterscheiden. Das Bündnis habe mit Blick auf die Bedrohung aus Russland nun Verteidigungspläne wie zuletzt im Kalten Krieg aufgestellt. Mölling beschreibt Zustand, Herausforderungen und Probleme der deutschen Rüstungsindustrie. Technologisch sei man schon weit. „Wir haben aber einfach ein riesiges Produktionsloch.“ Der Sicherheitsexperte erklärt, welche Bereiche bei der Anschaffung Priorität haben und welche Rolle Drohnen für die Zukunft spielen können.

Is it ADHD… or something else entirely? This episode dives into one of the most debated topics in parenting and child psychology. Dr Justin Coulson answers a heartfelt question from a concerned parent: Should I pursue a formal ADHD diagnosis for my child — or are there better first steps to take? If you're feeling overwhelmed by symptoms, advice, and conflicting opinions, this conversation will help you slow down, zoom out, and see your child through a compassionate, research-informed lens. KEY POINTS: ADHD diagnosis rates are rising — but is it always the right label? Some children may be diagnosed for what is actually normal developmental variation or environmental mismatch. ADHD-like symptoms may be a child’s way of trying to meet three unmet psychological needs: Connection (relatedness) Capability (competence) Control (autonomy) Neuroinflammation is an emerging and overlooked factor in ADHD symptoms. Developmental readiness matters — an 8-year-old’s brain is still undergoing major executive function development. Rather than trying to eliminate stress, parents can help children build capacity to handle challenge (a growth mindset). Medication might help some, but it’s not the first (or only) answer. Diagnosis should be thoughtful, multi-faceted, and whole-child focused. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: "Difference doesn't mean disorder. Development is not a race." – Dr Justin Coulson RESOURCES MENTIONED: The Parenting Revolution by Dr Justin Coulson Happy Families – for more articles, podcast episodes, and parenting resources Self-Determination Theory & Growth Mindset research Parenting ADHD [The Course] ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Delay formal diagnosis (unless impairment is severe) and give time for development. Audit the environment for connection, competence, and autonomy — is it need-thwarting or need-supportive? Support physical health: Prioritise sleep, unprocessed foods, and movement. Explore reducing neuroinflammation through lifestyle. Teach a growth mindset: Use the word “yet”, encourage effort, and model learning through challenges. Reframe behaviours: Daydreaming may signal creativity, not dysfunction. Risk-taking may show courage and capability-seeking. Task resistance may be about autonomy, not defiance. If pursuing assessment, choose a clinician who understands development, context, and the whole child — not just a checklist. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Your business needs to be designed with your bandwidth in mind so that you're capable of doing it in every season! You have other priorities outside of business, and I want to help you design a business with your capacity in mind. I want you to ignore society and other business gurus when they tell you how much bandwidth you need to have for your business, and instead, I want you to design it around you! I think there's a misconception that designing a business around bandwidth limits your capacity for growth, but that's not true – bandwidth can change! Capability doesn't equal sustainability, and while there are always things you can handle doing for a short period of time, sustaining them is tricky. It's so easy to want to say yes to more. I get the appeal, and I also know that you don't have to do everything! Your business is not meant to be something you have to fight, it's meant to be something that supports you and provides you with the flexibility that traditional jobs don't. Throughout this episode, I want you to consider choosing sustainability over survival and say no to hustle culture! Let's dive in.

Two visions for the future of AI clash in this debate between Daniel Kokotajlo and Arvind Narayanan. Is AI a revolutionary new species destined for runaway superintelligence, or just another step in humanity's technological evolution—like electricity or the internet? Daniel, a former OpenAI researcher and author of AI 2027, argues for a fast-approaching intelligence explosion. Arvind, a Princeton professor and co-author of AI Snake Oil, contends that AI is powerful but ultimately controllable and slow to reshape society. Moderated by Ryan and David, this conversation dives into the crux of capability vs. power, economic transformation, and the future of democratic agency in an AI-driven world. ------

Ever feel like your problems are too big, too vague, too tangled to tackle? Dr. Mark L. Teague calls it “the blob”—that overwhelming mass of modern challenges we all face. In this powerful episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Dr. Teague, economist, former finance executive, and author of A Working Man's Guide, to reveal a game-changing approach: frame the problem before you fight it. Dr. Teague shares the strategy that helped him go from farmhand to PhD and Wall Street leadership: simplify the chaos, break it into components, and work against a frame, not a feeling. We also take a look at his Impact Index—a sharp diagnostic tool to evaluate whether someone's ambition and capability align—and a deep observation at why building a life of abundant purpose is the ultimate productivity advantage. Learn how principled thinking, rooted in traditional values, leads not just to success—but to purpose. Let's dive in. What We Discuss [00:00] Introducing Dr. Mark L. Teague, PhD [04:01] The 3 core principles that shaped Dr. Teague [05:31] Why accepting life's problems is the first step to real productivity [07:44] The power of the Scientific Method: Turning blobs into frames [11:06] Samuel Morse and the power of reframing problems [13:44] Building resilience in the age of AI, economic shifts, and overwhelm [17:07] The Impact Index: How ambition and competence drive real outcomes [23:22] Abundant purpose: Why fulfillment beats wealth every time [28:02] From managing money to managing meaning: Lessons for entrepreneurs and tradespeople [32:52] How values-driven leadership builds lasting business and family success [36:22] Holding fast to your North Star: The conversation that matters most [39:23] Where to find Dr. Teague and his book Notable Quotes [04:20] “Work hard, be honest, and be respectful. Those three things were expected—and you didn't deviate.” — Dr. Teague [07:44] “Don't work against the blob. Frame the problem, then work the frame.” — Dr. Teague [10:22] “Simplify. That's the secret to all stress management.” — Dr. Teague [17:07] “Capability without ambition makes you dead weight. Ambition without capability makes you dangerous.” — Dr. Teague [25:48] “Build your life around the intangibles—and use those same principles to pursue the tangible.” — Dr. Teague [35:55] “If you put business before family, you're talking to a fool.” — Dr. Teague Our Guest Dr. Mark L. Teague is a former finance executive, PhD economist, entrepreneur, and author of A Working Man's Guide. With deep roots in traditional values and decades of high-stakes leadership, Dr. Teague brings a fresh, practical perspective to productivity rooted in principle.
