Podcasts about cathedral thinking

The Commentary is back — and we're on a mission to recover the generational mindset of the Church, something we might call “Cathedral Thinking.” Spurred by an essay on this topic, Cameron and Mark ask what lessons the cathedral builders of old can teach us, not just about ecclesiastical architecture, but about investing our time and gifts in work that won't come to fruition in our lifetimes. Read Jonathan Thompson's “The Rise and Fall (and Rise?) of Cathedral Thinking.” THE COMMENTARY is an in-depth conversation about vision, worship, and life at Grace Presbyterian Church.Subscribe on Stitcher, Apple Podcasts or Spotify

Have you ever visited an old cathedral and been in awe of the building, who built it, and how they did it? Many individuals who dreamed up cathedrals or worked on their construction never saw them finished or enjoyed them. Why do you think they kept working on them? Part of the reason is cathedral thinking which is simply the thinking behind long-term projects we work on to benefit future generations. How could cathedral thinking help you?

In this episode, my guest is Ari Wallach, adjunct associate professor at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs and host of a new TV series titled A Brief History of the Future. We discuss the importance of learning to project our understanding of ourselves and our goals into the future, both for our own sake and for future generations. We also explore how this fosters a sense of unity and community within our species. We examine how technology and modern society influence our perception of time and our ability to make decisions in a fast-paced, reward-driven environment that leads to our best possible future. Additionally, we discuss how the dismantling of traditional institutions has altered people's sense of purpose. We outline protocols to cultivate long-term thinking, connect with core values, and define a deep sense of purpose. This episode provides listeners with actionable tools to merge short- and long-term thinking in ways that create a positive, lasting impact on ourselves, society, and the planet.

This week, I'm reflecting on our new brand and why we are so excited about the next chapter. I want to share the branding journey with you to highlight the lessons we learned along the way. I hope that our story will inspire you and give an introduction to our new company and the philosophy behind it. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why we decided to merge two brands, and how the Travel Alliance Partnership will be an economic development partner for destinations What the rebranding process involved, including workshops, visual mapping, and merging of brands Why embracing “cathedral thinking” is important and the impact of building projects for future generations Strategies we used to roll the new brand out and the importance of building a lasting brand foundation How involving employees early in the branding process fostered a sense of community and shared knowledge within the team Community Collaboration and Partnerships I want to talk a little more about the significance of community collaboration and partnerships in the growth of the travel industry. Travel Alliance Partnership is committed to supporting economic growth and prosperity within the communities we serve, and we live out our core values of collaboration and the impact it can have on the overall success of businesses within the industry. I shed light on why we merged the two brands into a single entity with distinct service pillars to reflect our strategic approach and our commitment to creating a cohesive brand architecture. Cathedral Thinking and Lasting Brand Foundations I talk more about cathedral thinking, emphasizing the importance of building projects and brands that leave a lasting impact on future generations. Our forward-thinking approach aligns with the Travel Alliance Partnership's vision of creating a community based on collaboration and innovation. Empowering Employees The significance of involving employees early in the branding process cannot be underestimated. By encouraging team members to share company milestones and stories, we foster a sense of shared knowledge and unity among employees. During the rebranding process, it also became clear that we had scope to add capacity to the team by creating a new position, director of strategic partnerships, who could help us continue to build long-term relationships and expand our capabilities.

Ep 451 - Cathedral Thinking Guest: Rick Antonson By Stuart McNish   Groucho Marx once quipped, “Why should I care about future generations? What have they ever done for me?” According to Rick Antonson, “You have a responsibility to your children's great grandchildren.” In fact, Antonson says, “You need to wrench yourself from your phone and become a cathedral thinker about the big issues of our times.”    The concept crosses many cultures. Chief Oren Lyons, of the Onondaga Nation, a member of the Iroquois Confederacy, says, “Looking ahead is one of the first mandates given us as chiefs, to make sure every decision that we make relates to the welfare and well-being of the seventh generation to come.”   Antonson rhetorically asks, “Is cathedral thinking a relic of the past or does it still apply?” He says, “Yes. More, now than ever, we need to apply it to social policy issues, racial injustice, technological risks such as AI, public health and space to name but a few.”   We invited Rick Antonson to join us for a Conversation That Matters about why we should care about future generations.   Join me May 16 for Conversations Live - A Vancouver Sun Town Hall: Life Sciences - BC's Innovation Future   https://www.conversationslive.ca/   If you love communications and speech writing you'll gain valuable insights from Presidential SpeechWriting which I narrated.

The people who build Europe's gothic cathedrals knew that they wouldn't be around to see them completed. They were building for people yet to be born. This is what we need to build liveable cities right now. Looking at John Gray the 19th century architect of Dublin's water system, we apply Gray's thinking and planning to the of the biggest urban dilemma of the 21st century: housing and urban planning. To execute urban vision, we need to take on some vested interests and think about future generations, not yet here, as our equals Join the gang! https://plus.acast.com/s/the-david-mcwilliams-podcast.

Do you ever feel like the ultra-wealthy play by a different set of rules than the rest of us?  What is their secret of getting rich, and staying rich? This week, we dive into the strategies used by multi-millionaires and billionaires to create wealth and protect their legacies -not just for their children- but for their grandchildren and generations to come. In this episode, Jake and Gino compare two of America's wealthiest families, and the difference in how the Rockefellers and the Vanderbilts preserved their wealth. By not thinking long-term and not focusing on preservation, the Vanderbilts squandered their family fortune almost immediately. The Rockefellers, on the other hand, employed a strategy to keep their money together, inside of protected trusts with direction on how it could and could not be spent, which ultimately secured their financial future for more than 6 generations.  Gino dives into the top 3 factors that kill wealth, while Jake explains the framework of a trust. This bigger-picture mentality allows you to protect your financial legacy from taxes, lawsuits, and even reckless-spending heirs.  Key Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 03:19 Directing your assets to build your legacy even when you are not around 05:36 Why the Rockefellers lasted but the Vanderbilts did not? 09:47 Framework of the family trust as your legacy for your children and generations ahead 12:49 Long-Termism and Cathedral Thinking 14:32 Three factors that kill wealth 17:52 Why do multi-millionaires and billionaires do not leave their money to their children? “Think with the end in mind, if you want to grow your wealth and save it for your generations”- Gino To know more about long-term personal financial engineering and options for building legacy wealth, connect with our Team at www.100year.com Bonus resources: DOWNLOAD our Dual Asset Strategy ebook and learn how YOU can leverage cash value life insurance and become your own source of financing:  https://100yearrei.com/ebook-download/         SCHEDULE A Call: https://100yearrei.com/callnow/     ^To talk to our Team about adding a Permanent Life Insurance Policy to your financial plan (and even the plan for your children), get in touch with our Team here^  About The 100 Year Real Estate Investor The Whole Life Insurance Policies offered by the 100 Year Real Estate Investor are specially-designed.

The Good Ancestor, A Radical Prescription for Long-Term Thinking (Nov 2020, The Experiment) is by leading public philosopher Roman Krznaric.  A timely perspective for this moment in history. Businesses eschew civic responsibility for immediate gains, politicians throw their support behind whatever will win the next election, and we all struggle to focus our attention beyond the next alert from our phones.  The result? An inexcusable chasm between the haves and have-nots--and mounting existential threats--have brought our species to the precipice of disaster.  Yet Krznaric sees reason to hope... if we can trade short-sightedness with long-term thinking.  In The Good Ancestor, Krznaric reveals six practical ways we can retrain our brains to think of the long view, including Deep Humility (recognizing our lives as a cosmic eyeblink) and Cathedral Thinking (starting projects that will take more than one lifetime to complete).  His aim is to inspire more "time rebels" like Greta Thunberg--to shift our allegiance from this generation to all of humanity--in short, to save our planet and our future. _________________________ Van Carter is a retired broadcast journalist.

In a world building 50-year houses we are called to plant trees for building 1000-year cathedrals of the heart. Will you build a legacy bigger than yourself?

On today's show, Sean talks with Roman Krznaric, the author of The Good Ancestor: A Radical Prescription for Long-term Thinking. We explore the idea of thinking long-term, and we learn about some very long-term projects. Along the way, Roman takes us on a journey. He talks about a Cathedral in Germany that took over 500 years to build, a clock being built in Texas designed to last 10,000 years, a seed vault in the arctic circle designed to preserve seeds for 1,000 years, and others. We learn about the importance of long-term thinking, as well as the battle in our heads between our “marshmallow" and our “acorn” brain. He also talks about how important it is to have a transcendent goal in our lives, how to move beyond the ego-boundary, and why we should all ask, “How will I be remembered when I die?”IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:The importance of long-term thinkingThe tug of war inside our heads between short-term and long-term thinkingHow to manage between our “marshmallow brain” versus our “acorn” brainJeff Bezos, The Long Now Foundation and the 10,000-Year ClockWhy we should take into the account the welfare of future generationsThe importance of asking the question: “How will I be remembered when I die?"The Grandmother effect and how it weaves generations togetherWhy it's important to have a transcendent goal in lifeWhat is Cathedral Thinking and why it's importantBOOKS AND RESOURCESThe Good Ancestor: A Radical Prescription for Long-term Thinking by Roman KrznaricThe Long Now FoundationThe Future LibraryThe Uffington White HorseThe Svalbard Global Seed VaultCapital One.

The only 2 industries in which people are referred to as "Users" are the tech industry and the illegal-drug industry. In this episode, Rick and Teresa discuss the newly released Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma. In this film, we're shown how corporations are using powerful artificial intelligence and algorithms to figure out how to pull our attention toward the things they want us to look at, instead of the things that are more aligned with our goals, purpose and values. We want you to live a life excelling in the 4 areas of Faith, Family, Finance and Future. How can we achieve when we are distracted and hypnotized by social media? We should take inventory of our time, as well as our kids’ and grandkids’ time, and enforce limits and boundaries. Take decisive action to take back the control of what you and your family is exposed to. Break the addiction to screens and manipulated content now. Live life on your terms, not some tech company's terms.

Rick Antonson is the former president and CEO of Tourism Vancouver, the past chair of the board for Destinations International, based in Washington, DC, and the former deputy chair for the Pacific Asia Tourism Association, based in Bangkok, Thailand. He initially joined us on Episode #44, where we talked about using cathedral thinking to create a brighter future. During our conversation, we talk about the importance of scenario planning in managing a crisis. We also discuss the different ways the pandemic has shown tourism’s effect on entire communities. And we discuss the power of cathedral thinking in rebuilding the future. Crisis Management 101 At first, we were facing more of a business and marketing crisis than a worldwide shutdown like we see today. That is the first step in crisis management—identifying you are actually IN a crisis. But in crisis management, the most immediate thing is to then determine what the situation is and get the facts. This enables tourism organizations to have more strategic discussions based in realism, not idealism. You can’t react to a crisis based on what you wish was happening or somebody’s artificial forecast. You have to react based on the facts, and sometimes you have to go below the surface to get away from the noise and piece together what is really happening. Stepping Stones Rick recently authored an op-ed that ran in the Vancouver Sun titled “Immediate Financial Assistance Needed to Save BC Tourism Sector.” In this piece, Rick talks about the importance of funding tourism now in order to regain lost business by the year 2023. This is not a quick rebound. Even if a vaccine is approved and distributed in major markets across the globe, it will take time for the wheels to start turning again. People have to individually want to travel again—not desire. But making travel a priority when they’re concerned with getting back to work and replenishing their savings is also going to take time. The pandemic has taken a toll on our industry, but we do have the power to rebuild it better than before.

Philosopher, author, and integrator Jeremy Lent brilliantly articulates how shifts in values, ideas and paradigms can serve to rewrite our human story. His important book, The Patterning Instinct: A Cultural History of Humanity’s Search for Meaning, traces the foundations of our modern worldview and the constructions of meaning formed by cultures around the world. In this episode, Jeremy and I turn directly to all that inspires our care and tests our faith. We examine the human patterns that have created our collective crises, and we deeply feel into how we can serve the renewal of the world we love. He is currently working on his next book provisionally entitled The Web of Meaning: An Integration of Modern Science with Traditional Wisdom and works as the founder of the nonprofit Liology Institute, dedicated to fostering an integrated worldview that can enable human sustainability.

“It is not what we do that matters, it’s what we cause to happen. We should all be involved in unfinished work.” –Rick AntonsonIn this episode of Travel Nuggets, travel writer Rick Antonson joins us again to explain why he is an apostle of “Cathedral Thinking” … and what that is! In Rick’s works, Cathedral Thinking is “a commitment to long term visions.” Notre Dame de Paris.

Author and raconteur Rick Antonson is the former CEO of Tourism Vancouver. In this first episode of the new DMOU, Rick discusses the progress the tourism industry has made to be more green, the concept of "Cathedral Thinking" and what he knows now that he didn't know then.For more on Rick, click HERE. For more on "Cathedral Thinking," HERE.

Don and Brad discuss the concept of "Cathedral Thinking".  They discuss the idea that cathedrals like Notre Dame in Paris took generations to build.  Because of that fact, families and specifically fathers were focused on training and preparing their boys to continue the task of building these cathedrals, and in many cases never got to see the finished work.  This is much like how God wants us to build our families and generations.

Dr. Kirsten Ellenbogen brings more than 25 years of experience to her role as the third president of Great Lakes Science Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Kirsten’s energetic leadership during the last two decades has advanced informal STEM education. Her leadership activities at Great Lakes Science Center have included the launch of a new strategic initiative, Cleveland Creates, developed in collaboration with regional workforce development leaders to change the community’s manufacturing narrative through STEM education for middle school youth and families. Kirsten has worked at five museums during the past two decades and consulted for more than 30. She is a founding leader of the Northeast Ohio STEM Ecosystem Collaborative and has been appointed to serve on the mayor’s steering committee on sustainability as well as the planning and Urban Design Committee of the Group Plan Commission. She holds a Ph.D. in science education from Vanderbilt University and a BA from the University of Chicago. On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Dr. Kirsten Ellenbogen about science, city-wide collaboration, and national partnerships in museum tourism. Kirsten also breaks down the vast difference it makes when other institutions speak with each other and work together, instead of being adversarial.     What You Will Learn: How to work with competitors to establish points of differentiation The power of saying yes How to manage a challenge to attendance in what should be your busiest season Working with other community players to achieve and exceed expectations around a huge community event How to maintain your roots as a beloved institution while also connecting with first-time visitors Working with other nearby cultural institutions to create a wider “campus” Cathedral thinking – Looking at tourism development from a generational perspective How strategic plans bring focus to both what you are working on and what you are not working on From a “No” Organization to a “Yes” Organization Organizations get reputations. When you have a reputation for saying no, opportunities start to dry up, and you get stuck in a rut of doing the same things year after year. Saying yes can also have its challenges, like when your city is hosting a national political convention. Kirsten talks about how to bring stakeholders together to think through the best ways to face the challenges and opportunities when you invite the nation into your town. Cathedral Thinking We also revisit a concept from another episode – Cathedral Thinking – as we explore what it means to be a cultural institution with a long view, and a view to contribute and participate fully in the community where you are situated. Planning isn’t just about the next year or two, but about laying a foundation for generations to build on. That may sound grandiose, but when you are a cultural institution in a community rich with art, sports, music, and science attractions, taking the long view together is just good stewardship. What foundations are you laying down for future generations? Resources: Website: greatscience.com Facebook: facebook.com/greatlakessciencecenter/ Twitter: @GLScienceCtr

In this first part of 2 episodes, we speak with Chris Flynn, The Founder and CEO of The World Tourism Association of Culture and Heritage about how he got into the travel industry, what the implications of another 500m tourists worldwide will be on our most unique cultural attractions and how this is impacting every destination in the world.  With some frankly incredible insights on the travel industry, we learn the extent of the damage done to our destinations as well as the huge positive opportunities which are available here if we can truly grasp the situation.

Imagine that, centuries ago, you were laying a stone for a building that will take 50, 100, 150 years to complete. You won’t be alive when it’s finished. And those who will lay the final stones aren’t even born yet. But you know everything you do now will have a long-term impact.  You enjoy laying each stone… knowing generations in the future will thank you for starting with that first brick. Your generation works today, but is tethered to the future. “Cathedral Thinking” is ambitious, long term thinking. Cathedral Thinking will take that first step towards a brilliant idea that the future will say ‘thank you’ for. Your legacy is that idea, that 'Cathedral' you started. It’s easy to think short term. But Rick Antonson, author, travel industry executive, and apostle of Cathedral Thinking, will help you lay that first stone of your long-term legacy.

In this episode, you will learn about the important idea of Cathedral Thinking from Rick Antonson. Rick Antonson is the former president & CEO of the international award-winning destination marketing organization, Tourism Vancouver. Among his volunteer leadership roles, Rick was president of Pacific Coast Public Television, chair of Destination Marketing Association International (based in Washington, DC), and deputy chair of the Pacific Asia Travel Association (based in Bangkok, Thailand). Rick collaborated with leaders of other organizations to initiate the Vancouver Convention Centre Expansion Task Force. He was at the helm of Tourism Vancouver when the organization launched the bid to bring the 2010 Winter Olympic Games to Vancouver and Whistler. Today Rick is a full-time author and scriptwriter. The New York Times noted his Route 66 Still Kicks; Driving America’s Main Street as “One of the best books of the bunch” in their Christmas travel book roundup. The Chicago Tribune called his To Timbuktu for a Haircut; A Journey Through West Africa a “travel classic.” When his most recent book, Full Moon Over Noah’s Ark; An Odyssey to Mount Ararat was released last year, the American Library Journal saw it as this tasty, spicy feast of a book” Rick speaks frequently around the world about Cathedral Thinking and is a strong believer that tourism is a vital force for peace.
