Paving a Path to Success in Frontline Contact Center Leadership This week, we welcome Chevon Brathwaite to the Digitally Irresistible podcast. Chevon is senior manager of operations at iQor Trinidad and Tobago with over 15 years' experience in contact center operations and a passion for customer service and professional development for frontline employees. Chevon began his career working in contact center operations, gaining additional responsibilities and shouldering new roles as he displayed an aptitude for developing himself and others to excel in the customer service business. His boots-on-the-ground experience as an agent and supervisor helped advance his career in the BPO industry with iQor Trinidad and Tobago, where he supports iQor's clients through a diverse talent pool supported by a comprehensive infrastructure that delivers robust data security and performance for smile-worthy CX. On this episode, we discuss how Chevon paved the way for new client relationships with iQor in Trinidad and Tobago by maximizing the performance of his teams to exceed client KPIs while also investing in their personal and professional development. Earning Client Confidence Through Open Communication and Quality Customer Service Chevon began his career as a call center agent at the frontlines of customer care. As he gained experience, his authentic passion for providing exceptional customer service propelled his advancement to supervisory roles. Chevon's experience as a call center supervisor provided him with a new perspective on customer service. Investing directly in his team's well-being and professional development to aid their achievement of department objectives resulted in a significant and lasting impact on customer service culture within the company. Upon initially expanding nearshoring services to Trinidad and Tobago, iQor gave Chevon the opportunity to join us as a critical operations resource. His years of hands-on experience fielding customer inquiries and managing teams in the region made him an ideal candidate. Chevon joined iQor, transitioning from a single-brand contact center environment to a BPO environment servicing multiple clients. Chevon embraced the opportunity with great enthusiasm, leveraging his extensive contact center management experience. He set out to listen to the needs of all his clients and harnessed iQor's resources to achieve the best outcomes for all the clients that his team supports. To accomplish this, Chevon emphasized close, open communication with the client to achieve their KPIs, while maintaining his commitment to quality and security. The unique characteristics of the talent pool in Trinidad and Tobago combined with iQor's high standards in client data privacy and protection empowered Chevon to support new clients and drive operations excellence at iQor. Why Trinidad and Tobago Is an Attractive Location for Nearshore Customer Service Trinidad and Tobago features a combination of strategic advantages that position it as an attractive location in the global outsourcing landscape. Chevon describes how the country's unique qualities combine with iQor's CX operations expertise to create optimal outcomes for the clients he and his team support. Geographically positioned below the hurricane belt, the islands' location ensures a level of operational stability and minimizes the risks associated with weather-related events, making the two-island nation a reliable hub for businesses seeking reliable customer service operations. Trinidad and Tobago also boasts a population of young, college-educated, digitally savvy talent ready to delve into the world of customer service. This pool of skilled professionals offers a unique blend of technical aptitude and innovative thinking, paving the way for adaptable and creative solutions to customer interactions. The country's population includes a large number of bilingual speakers, providing a competitive edge by enabling seamless communication with a diverse range of customers. While Trinidad and Tobago has its own distinct culture, it also shares many similarities with American culture, allowing for a seamless adaptation to the needs and expectations of American customers. This cultural compatibility fosters a sense of familiarity and understanding between agent and customer that drives higher customer satisfaction. Trinidad and Tobago is a nearshore customer service destination that blends geographic resilience, skilled talent, linguistic versatility, and American cultural synchronization to deliver top-tier customer experiences. Chevon's leadership focuses on integrating these benefits into optimized teams and operations strategies that yield powerful returns on investment (ROI) for iQor's strategic partners, many of whom begin with one line of business and expand to multiple LOBs due to their success. The Positive Feedback Loop of Employee Experiences That Inspire Engagement and Deliver Exceptional CX In his role as senior manager of operations at iQor Trinidad and Tobago, Chevon is most passionate about working with people to cultivate and strengthen bonds between team members and customers. Investing in the success of his employees through mentorship and other support practices gives his work a sense of purpose and drives his commitment to managing with excellence. iQor's succession planning and career pathing programs ensure that when Chevon invests in the success of his teams, he is helping each agent cultivate opportunities for their own professional advancement and support within the company. In one case, an agent on Chevon's team was experiencing a personal challenge. Chevon took the time to understand what iQor could do to provide support while the agent navigated their circumstances. This agent received support and has since advanced to a management position, exemplifying iQor's investment in tenured employees who create value for our clients. Chevon's contribution to this process is critical to creating positive employee experiences driven by evidence-backed retention strategies that boost engagement and build employees into leaders. 3 Irresistible Benefits Driving Client Expansion Into Nearshoring With iQor Trinidad and Tobago Chevon has been integral in maximizing Trinidad and Tobago as an attractive nearshoring geolocation to build and expand client relationships. One of iQor's clients had not previously outsourced to a nearshore location and expressed an interest in learning more. Chevon met with the client, highlighting his team's capabilities and the location's benefits. Chevon emphasized three areas that ultimately inspired the client to expand their strategic outsourcing partnership with iQor to include nearshoring services in Trinidad and Tobago. 1. Rapid, efficient onboarding. The client was impressed by the iQor Trinidad and Tobago's swift onboarding process, which seamlessly recruited and trained new talent, demonstrating remarkable efficiency and a commitment to delivering results from day one. 2. Data security and protection. A top priority for the client was iQor's unwavering commitment to stringent data protection protocols and maintaining top-tier security compliance, instilling confidence in the safety of sensitive information and fostering a trustworthy partnership. iQor provides this peace of mind for all clients in all geos with best-in-class CX cloud infrastructure and multi-layer security protocols. We continuously invest in a dynamic zero trust approach to cybersecurity that leverages the most up-to-date trends in security awareness with multi-factor authentication, network security, data security, device authentication, and continuous monitoring of client and customer information. 3. Bilingual talent. The availability of a bilingual talent pool in this geolocation helped solidify the client's decision to nearshore their operations with iQor Trinidad and Tobago. Linguistic familiarity helps provide seamless customer service across a diverse array of inquiries, simplifying interactions and maintaining customer satisfaction. Investing in Leadership Is Key to Success in Every Geolocation At iQor, we recognize that the cornerstone of success lies in a strategic investment in leadership. Chevon's consistent excellence in contact center roles showcased his capability of providing the guidance, motivation, and direction to navigate diverse customer needs as a senior operations manager while keeping up with the ever-evolving BPO industry. Since taking on the responsibility of senior operations manager at iQor Trinidad and Tobago, Chevon's coaching and support practices have consistently inspired optimal performance from the diverse talent pool he manages. His proven ability to oversee the onboarding process, along with the availability of a bilingual workforce and iQor's commitment to data security, have inspired client confidence in nearshoring with iQor Trinidad and Tobago, driving successful client outcomes with exceptional customer service. What Chevon Does for Fun Like many Trinidadians, Chevon enjoys soaking up the sun and surf on the beautiful local beaches. He also enjoys binge-watching movies and spending time with his family.

The right-wing loves yelling, “We're a republic, not a democracy!” Now they have a Supreme Court that agrees with them. The Court is about to hear Moore v. Harper, a gerrymandering case that will also take up the Electors Clause of the Constitution. The Republican legal argument, made famous by Trump's 2020 legal team, is that state legislatures can send their own choice of electors to the Electoral College, rather than abiding by the vote of the people. The implications of this are huge — the end of ‘one person, one vote.' Brian is joined by Steven Donziger, an advocate, writer and public speaker on human rights and corporate accountability. His most recent piece is The most terrifying case of all is about to be heard by the US Supreme Court. He also filed a class-action lawsuit with others against Chevron for environmental damage – including dumping 17 million gallons of crude oil in the Ecuadorian rainforest – and won a historic $9.5 billion judgment. Chevon then fled Ecuador and launched a campaign against Donziger that resulted in him being disbarred, serving 45 days behind bars, and under home confinement for 993 days.

Chevon Taylor, Associate Leader of TCC, challenges us to face any disappointment that occurs when our prayers seem ineffective or seem to fall of deaf ears. Dealing with disappointment in our prayer lives is the key to living openly, freely & courageously. It's time to deal with the elephant in the room before it causes anymore damage.
Chevon kicks off a brand new series on prayer. Prayer can be as simple as making a cry to God. You don't have to be good at it. So what does prayer involve? And how can we pray effectively? Chevon shows us why prayer is much simpler than sometimes we imagine, and how to have a great prayer life.

It's the first major championship week of the year (no, not that one) as the ladies take center stage this week on the YSO podcast! But first, the guys recap the WGC Match Play and Scottie's Scheffler's meteoric rise to the World's #1 ranking at the ripe old age of just 25 (although he looks 45). The guys show some love to the pesky/feisty Kevin Kisner who seems to always show out at the ACC, as well as Scott's excellent dark horse pick of the week--albeit at his 2nd attempt--in Canadian, Corey Conners (PHIL?!, PHIL CONNERS?!?!?) After that, the guys take a dive into "Poppie's Pond" to talk about the Chevron Championship and whether anyone but JYK can actually win this thing (they can) and who might challenge her (someone else whose name starts with a "K"). The guys then talk all about the Augusta National Women's Amateur and spotlight a few of the world's best amateur women, including a few with local ties (Let's go Rina Tatematsu!). And lastly, JT calls it in for his picks on the Valero Texas Open, while openly poo-pooing most of Keith and Scott's picks for the golfers down in San Antone! All that, a few slaps, and so much more on this week's YSO podcast!!! And don't forget about "Major Monday", next week at Chalk Luxury Sports Bar, where we'll be doing a "live" remote of the podcast from 4:00pm to 6:00pm!

In this episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Gauge co-founder Joshua DuBois joins Chevon and Hiba for a conversation about his time as White House Executive Director of the Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships, how Gauge is connecting community leaders and brands on their racial justice initiatives, and his ongoing work on racial justice causes such as the “Justice For Julius” campaign. Joshua explains the benefits of creating a system like Gauge to form partnerships with brands in order to help inform decisions based on inclusivity while also helping community leaders, content creators, and contractors be compensated for their knowledge. He provides his reflections on how the 2020 uprisings inspired these efforts and the important wins that have come to fruition as a result of these partnerships. In the opening Hiba and Chevon reflect on the heavy moment being felt in the aftermath of the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict and the guilty verdict for Ahmaud Arbery's killers. They speak on the recurring theme of self-care during times of high tension, and the importance of even detaching if necessary. We'll continue the season in January – until then, our team wishes you a safe holiday season with your loved ones as we gear up for a new year in this racial justice work.

Moses was adopted. That gave him an advantage. Queen Esther was also adopted. And God used both of these individuals to save His own people. We also are adopted. We're adopted into God's family. But what does that mean for us? And what are the benefits? With personal stories, looking at what happened at the first Christmas, and investigating Bible principles, Chevon shows us the incredible blessings that adoption brings, both in the natural and the spiritual.
What's the difference between excellent and perfect? Between excellence and perfectionism? Chevon shows us why, in order to carry a standard of excellence, we don't need to be perfect. In fact, we will not achieve excellence by demanding perfection. Let's aim for excellence. Here's how...
On the Season 3 premiere of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Western States Center Executive Director and Race Forward Senior Fellow Eric Ward joins us to ground and center us, and you, our listeners, in our racial justice work! Update: Hiba is back from sabbatical, and now Chevon is taking her well-deserved time off, and in the meantime, Dennis is back to fill in! Hiba and Dennis open the episode with a short recap of recent happenings –– the Delta COVID-19 variant, Climate Change/flooding in NYC, the ongoing fight over critical race theory being taught in schools, and refugee resettlement efforts triggered by global events. Holding all this, Dennis and Eric have a conversation inspired by Grace Lee Boggs' quote “what time is it in the clock of the world”, and what it means for the hurdles we are facing as racial justice practitioners. Eric also discusses the urgent work of racial equity, how work towards a multiracial democracy is the alternative to the spread of white nationalism, the case study of the city of Portland, and extremist backlash and insurgencies, and how we can use that backlash as fuel to carry us forward in our work to “12:02AM”.

Words change over time. So Chevon looks at the words "mission" and "family". It's all about extended family - with a purpose, with a charge, going with authority. Sharing some personal stories, Chevon looks at what "Family on Mission" means for her and her family - and what it means for the church today.
Chevon Taylor continues the "I am a disciple" theme with a new look at what it means to be a disciple.
Jesus was an incredible storyteller. Stories are powerful. They're the language of our lives. They help us to connect and remember. This week, Chevon asks Phil Wright to share his powerful story of how Jesus changed his life and applies that to how we can use stories too.
Là một trong những tập đoàn dầu khí quan trọng trên thế giới, hãng Total của Pháp đang lúng túng vì cuộc đảo chính Miến Điện. Là một trong những công ty khai thác dự án Yadana, công ty dầu khí của Pháp bị cáo buộc gián tiếp tài trợ cho cuộc đảo chính tại Miến Điện. Đâu là những cáo buộc nhắm vào tập đoàn Total ? Công ty dầu khí này của Pháp liên hệ ra sao với các chính quyền liên tiếp tại Rangoon rồi Napyidaw ? Cũng có giả thuyết cho rằng quân đội Miến Điện đã tiến hành đảo chính để tiếp tục kiểm soát các mỏ dầu khí. Giáo sư kinh tế Htwe Htwe Thein, đại học Curtin - Perth, tây nam nước Úc, phân tích những chủ đề này. Ngày 01/02/2021, tập đoàn quân sự Miến Điện lật đổ chính quyền dân sự do đảng Liên đoàn Quốc gia vì Dân chủ của bà Aung San Suu Kyi lãnh đạo. Tiếp theo là các đợt đàn áp đẫm máu những cuộc biểu tình phản đối đảo chính. Trong bối cảnh đó, nhiều hội đoàn, tổ chức nhân quyền kêu gọi công ty dầu khí Total « ngừng tiếp tay với quân đội » gây thêm tang tóc cho quốc gia Đông Nam Á này. Total, nguồn thu nhập chính của giới tướng lĩnh Miến Điện Tập đoàn của Pháp đã hiện diện tại Miến Điện từ đầu thập niên 1990 và từ năm 1998, Total cùng với Chevron của Mỹ và MOGE của Miến Điện khai thác dự án Yadana ở ngoài khơi biển Andaman. Chỉ với dự án này « Total đủ sức đáp ứng nhu cầu tiêu thụ về điện lực của hơn một nửa thành phố Rangoon ». Nhưng không chỉ có thế : Năng lượng khai thác từ dự án Yadana chủ yếu để cung cấp cho Thái Lan qua trung gian tập đoàn MGTC. MGTC của Thái Lan « sở hữu » dự án Yadana, còn tập đoàn Total của Pháp thì vừa là « công ty khai thác » vừa là một trong những cổ đông của dự án. Theo điều tra của Le Monde ấn bản 04/05/2021, dự án Yadana là một đường ống dài 346 km nằm dưới lòng đại dương đưa thẳng khí đốt vào đất liền Thái Lan. Đường ống này không chỉ trung chuyển khí đốt mà còn là « con đường huyết mạch của cả một hệ thống nơi mà hàng trăm triệu đô la thay vì được rót vào công quỹ của Nhà nước thì được chuyển thẳng đến tay tập đoàn MOGE, một công ty Nhà nước do quân đội kiểm soát ». Tờ báo ví MOGE như một chiếc hộp đen không biết có những gì trong đó. Tuy nhiên, theo các tài liệu bị lộ ra ngoài và đến tay báo Le Monde, trong thời gian từ 2017 đến 2019, trước khi phải nộp thuế cho chính quyền Miến Điện, nhờ dự án này, lãi rót vào các toài khoản của MGTC lên tới 1,23 tỷ đô la, tỷ lệ lãi so với vốn đầu tư của tập đoàn lên tới 98% : Một kỷ lục hiếm đại tập đoàn quốc tế nào có thể sánh kịp. Về phần Total kiểm soát đến 31% tổng số vốn của dự án (Chevron là 28% và MOGE là 15%) vậy mà hãng dầu khí Pháp chỉ khai báo lời số tiền lời rất khiếm tốn (13%). Thêm vào đó, về mặt chính thức, Total khai hàng tháng đóng thuế 4 triệu đô la cho chính quyền Miến Điện, nhưng nhiều tài liệu mà Le Monde có được lại đưa ra con số cao hơn như vậy đến hơn 10 lần. Hộp đen MOGE Làm sao giải thích được cách biệt quá lớn đó ? Giới trong ngành kết luận : Total đã dùng những thủ thuật về thuế khóa để kín đáo rót tiền cho quân đội Miến Điện, chủ yếu qua trung gian đối tác địa phương là MOGE. Trả lời phóng viên đài RFI Clea Broadhurst, giáo sư kinh tế Htwe Htwe Thein, đại học Úc Curtin, khẳng định thuế mà Total và các đối tác đóng góp cho Miến Điện nhờ khai thác khí đốt từ dự án Yadana là « nguồn thu nhập chính của tập đoàn quân sự » nước này. Theo bà, nếu Total cắt nguồn thu nhập đó, điều này sẽ góp phần đưa Miến Điện ra khỏi bế tắc chính trị hiện nay : « Khác biệt vô cùng to lớn. Chính vì thế mà tất cả những nhà đấu tranh vì dân chủ, những tiếng nói chống đối cuộc đảo chính của quân đội, các tổ chức nhân đạo… yêu cầu các doanh nghiệp ngừng tài trợ cho tập đoàn quân sự. Quyết đinh liên quan đến những món tiền rất lớn. Đây là một trong những nguồn thu nhập quan trọng nhất của tập đoàn quân sự và những số tiền không phải là nhỏ. Thêm vào đó, hiện tại bên quân đội đang có nhiều nguồn thu nhập quan trọng vào thời điểm này. Kể từ khi cộng đồng quốc tế ban hành lệnh trừng phạt, các ngân hàng của Miến Điện trong tầm ngắm, thành thử nếu như các tập đoàn dầu khí ngừng chi tiền cho bên quân đội, tình thế sẽ thay đổi ngay. Các khoản tài trợ từ phía những tập đoàn dầu khí, đặc biệt là từ dự án Yadana bảo đảm đến 70% thu nhập cho giới tướng lĩnh Miến Điện. Đây là một dự án đã đi vào hoạt động từ những năm 1990 và từ lâu nay các hãng của châu Âu, Mỹ đã khai thác tài nguyên của Miến Điện và họ đã thu về biết bao nhiêu lợi nhuận. Thêm vào đó Total và Chevron bán nguyên liệu cho một tập đoàn của Thái Lan và đây cũng là một nguồn thu nhập khác của bên quân đội nữa ». Total bị cáo buộc chối bỏ nguyện vọng dân chủ của người dân Vài ngày sau bài báo điều tra của Le Monde, chủ tịch tổng giám đốc Total, Patrick de Pouyanné đã bác bỏ khả năng hãng Pháp ngừng đóng thuế cho chính quyền Naypyidawn vì đó là một hành động « bất hợp pháp ». Tuy nhiên, ông Pouyanné khá lúng túng khi phải trả lời về khác biệt giữa khoản đóng thuế thực sự được khai báo là 4 triệu đô la hàng tháng với con số 45 triệu một tháng mà các phóng viên của Le Monde đã nêu lên trong bài điều tra. Sau cùng, vào lúc nhiều tập đoàn Pháp đã tạm dừng các dự án tại Miến Điện sau cuộc đảo chính, rồi ngay cả tập đoàn dầu khí Malaysia là Petronas cũng thông báo ngưng khai thác lô Yetagun, sát cạnh các khu vực mà Total đang hoạt động, thì chủ tịch tổng giám đốc Total đã bác bỏ mọi khả năng công ty dầu khí này « rút lui » khỏi Miến Điện và giải thích « tiếp tục khai thác dự án Yadana là một nghĩa vụ để tiếp tục cung ứng năng lượng cho dân chúng tại Miến Điện và Thái Lan ». Total cũng như Chevron sợ rằng nếu họ bỏ đi thì các đối thủ Trung Quốc sẽ nhanh chóng lấp vào chỗ trống ? Giáo sư Htwe Htwe Thein đại học Úc trả lời : « Mối đe dọa đó luôn luôn hiện hữu và Trung Quốc sẽ dễ dàng và nhanh chóng thay thế. Đương nhiên là những hãng Trung Quốc sẽ không bận tâm nhiều và cũng không tôn trọng nhiều những chuẩn mực nhân quyền. Đây vừa là một khả năng vừa là một mối đe dọa hoàn toàn có thể xảy ra. Tuy nhiên, khi mà các nhà đấu tranh vì dân chủ của Miến Điện đòi đình chỉ dự án không có nghĩa là các tập đoàn của phương Tây phải ra đi hay rồi đây sẽ bị thay thế. Hơn thế nữa đây chỉ là một giải pháp mang tính nhất thời, cho tới khi nào quyền lực tại Miến Điện được tái lập và trao trả cho nhân dân. Không ai đòi Total hay Chevon đi khỏi Miến Điện cả. Chỉ là về mặt tượng trưng thôi : nếu như Total ngừng đóng thuế cho chính quyền quân sự, thì đây sẽ là một bước ngoặt đáng kể, và điều đó sẽ khuyến khích phe dân chủ Miến Điện ở cả trong nước lẫn hải ngoại tiếp tục đấu tranh để tái lập chế độ dân chủ. Một cách cụ thể hơn, ở đây chúng ta đang nói đến những khoản tiền rất lớn mà Total rót cho bên quân đội dưới hình thức đóng thuế liên quan đến dự án Yadana khai thác dầu và khí đốt ở ngoài khơi. Cuối cùng về mặt tâm lý đòn tài chính sẽ tác động đến tính chính đáng hay không của chính quyền quân sự nước này. Bên quân đội vẫn muốn khoe khoang là họ được cộng đồng quốc tế, được các doanh nghiệp ngoại quốc công nhận. Nếu Chevron và Total ngừng bơm thêm tiền cho tập đoàn quân sự thì đây là bước đầu để lên án cuộc đảo chính Miến Điện và sẽ có một tiếng vang lớn». Cũng giáo sư Htwe Htwe Thein lấy làm tiếc rằng thái độ « khăng khăng trụ lại Miến Điện của hãng Total như thể chối bỏ quyết tâm dân chủ của người dân nước này ». Bà không che giấu thất vọng về thái độ của cộng đồng quốc tế nói chung và của Pháp nói riêng : « Nhiều chính phủ phương Tây lên tiếng và ban hành các biện pháp trừng phạt Naypyidawn. Đó là điều hết sức khích lệ. Nhưng bước kế tiếp có lẽ còn quan trọng hơn nữa đó là trừng phạt tập đoàn MOGE. Đây là đại công ty dầu khí liên kết chặt chẽ với quân đội, với hãng Total của Pháp, Chevron của Mỹ và một công ty rất lớn của Thái Lan trong dự án Yadana. Giờ đây áp lực càng lớn, đặc biệt là sức ép đối với chính quyền của tổng thống Joe Biden, đòi Hoa Kỳ trừng phạt MOGE. Nếu như MOGE bị trừng phạt thì tập đoàn quân sự Miến Điện sẽ lâm vào thế kẹt và điểm này hết sức quan trọng. Quốc tế có trừng phạt MOGE hay không, đây sẽ là một bài toán trắc nghiệm để xem rằng chúng ta đứng về phía các hoạt động kinh doanh hay nhân quyền. Về phía Pháp, hiện tại những quyết định của nước này là chưa đủ. Liên Hiệp Châu Âu thường xuyên bị chậm trễ và luôn luôn theo gót Hoa Kỳ. Nhìn lại trong quá khứ lịch sử, Liên Âu không có thói quen ban hành các biện pháp trừng phạt. Tuy nhiên lần này, chúng ta đang đứng trước một khúc quanh cực kỳ quan trọng và đã đến lúc Bruxelles cần suy nghĩ lại về chính sách của châu Âu ». Kinh doanh là trên hết Ngoài tập đoàn Total, chuỗi khách sạn Accor của Pháp cũng trong thế kẹt không kém : từ 2015 nhóm này đã hợp tác với Max Myanmar Group, cũng là một cánh tay nối dài của giới tướng lĩnh Miến Điện trong ngành khách sạn, du lịch. Trong lĩnh vực năng lượng, công ty điện lực Pháp EDF cũng đang triển khai nhiều dự án tại quốc gia Đông Nam Á này. Trong năm 2019/2020 tổng đầu tư của Pháp vào Miến Điện lên tới 6 triệu đô la, thua rất xa so với Trung Quốc hay Nhật Bản, Singapore và Thái Lan. Bài toán của các nhà đầu tư Pháp càng thêm nan giải từ khi Naypyidaw bị quốc tế trừng phạt sau khủng hoảng nhân đạo nhắm vào cộng đồng người Rohingya theo đạo Hồi. Một điều thú vị là sau bài báo điều tra của Le Monde, Total thông báo hủy một hợp đồng 50.000 euro mà tập đoàn này dự trù với tờ báo để quảng bá cho hình ảnh của Total. Số tiền nói trên không lớn. Le Monde hiện tại không quá lệ thuộc vào các ngân sách quảng cáo để hoạt động nhưng quyết định của tập đoàn dầu khí Pháp làm lộ rõ những giới hạn của cái được gọi là quyền tự do báo chí, bất luận ở nơi nào.
On the season finale, writer, comedian, podcaster, activist, and Emmy Award-nominated host Baratunde Thurston brings us to the home stretch while providing all the laughs! Baratunde joins Chevon and Dennis to talk about his early career having worked at the intersections of standup, tech, and activism as a Black man, and how those experiences have shaped his current work on the topics of race, technology, democracy, and climate. He also shares his insights on being a multifaceted creator, the balance of “bringing your whole self to the workplace” as a person of color, and his take on “weaponing discomfort” and “defining white supremacy” to expose the underlying layers of how it's been maintained. Check out the Resources below for information on how to keep up with Baratunde and his upcoming projects, including his podcast “How To Citizen with Baratunde” and the new six-part PBS series, “America Outdoors with Baratunde Thurston”. Chevon and Dennis talk about shows that have centered race over the past year and give praise to the writers, producers, and organizations working to move the needle on representation. Among the many shows they mention are The Watchmen, Lovecraft Country, and Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Finally, two big announcements: Dennis has taken on a new position at Race Forward as our Vice President of Narrative, Arts, and Culture, and also we’ve opened registration for our #RaceAnd: Our Present, Our Future youth oriented event taking place on September 25th!

Producer’s Note* The following episode was recorded the week of April 14, and just earlier this week, we received the verdict of the Derek Chauvin trial. Race Forward has released a statement on our website titled “Derek Chauvin Found Guilty; But Our Work Is Not Done: Race Forward Calls For Urgency In Reimagining Public Safety That Values Black and Brown Lives”. The intro of this episode speaks to trauma informed healing which is relevant today, just as it was last week, and as the practice will continue to be. On this episode of Momentum, Chevon and Dennis interview distinguished professor, activist, and author, Dr. Manuel Pastor, Director of the USC Equity Research Institute about his experiences working in community building, academica, and racial justice work. Throughout the episode Dr. Pastor shares his personal motivations in working to address structural racism and inequality in the United States, the lessons that have been learned in working to ensure that California’s COVID recovery plans prioritize economic and racial equity, and his insights into lessons for modern day anti-racist practitioners, as well as what fuels his passion for public speaking. He also talks about his most recent book “State of Resistance: What California's Dizzying Descent And Remarkable Resurgence Mean For America's Future”. In the midst of an extremely difficult time with multiple incidences of police violence over the past few days/ weeks, Dennis and Chevon share resources that speak to trauma informed healing, and what they are each doing to take care of themselves during this time. We’ll be back soon with the season finale of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast –– until then, take care of yourselves, and each other.

Chevon continues looking at what it means to be a disciple. That's... Someone who follows Jesus. Someone who is changed by Jesus. Someone who does what Jesus does. Today, Chevon focuses on following Jesus, what that involves, and the incredible joy it brings.
We need clarity. Whatever we are clear about, we can engage with. When we understand what being a disciple is, we can come into a true identity of who we are. Chevon recalls her primary school teaching years to talk about building blocks that we can use to "follow, change and do" as disciples of Jesus.
On this episode of Momentum, Chevon is joined by Dennis Chin, Race Forward’s Director of Strategic Initiatives for an important conversation around the recent/ ongoing anti-Asian attacks happening across the nation. To root the conversation, Dennis shares his background in racial justice work, his experience recently having been targeted and accosted himself, and his experience working with Race Forward’s AAPI Caucus in crafting a statement after last month’s horrific acts of violence in Atlanta. Chevon and Dennis share some examples relating to the history of anti-Asian racism in the United States, the history and complexities of how Asian immigrant communities and Asian-Americans have been positioned in America, and how narratives like the “Chinavirus” (in reference to COVID-19) and the “model minority myth” are harmful and can lead to the proliferation of racist acts of violence. Lastly, Dennis and Chevon discuss the tensions that arise/exist between BIPOC communities that are a result of white supremacy and patriarchal systems at work, the conversations that are needed to dismantle these systems, and naming on the ground organizations that are directly addressing anti-Asian violence. It is our hope that this episode helps ground you for the important work there is still to do over the next few months and years–– and like our hosts said “there is room for everybody in this fight”. We’re excited to announce that Dennis will be back to co-host with Chevon the last two episodes of Season 2 of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, and we’re looking forward to having you listen in!

The two largest US oil companies recently unveiled fresh strategic approaches to the next several years that include limiting spending, slowing production growth and curbing emissions. It marks a significant departure from where these companies were just a year ago and reflects broader shifts in the industry. Members of the Competitive Intelligence team break down the changes in strategy and try to chart a path for where ‘Big Oil’ goes from here. Hosted by: Casey Merriman, Editorial Director, Western Hemisphere and Luke Johnson, Deputy Editor, Energy Intelligence Finance
On this episode of Momentum, Debra Gore-Mann, President and CEO of The Greenlining Institute joins Chevon for an energizing conversation on Greenlining’s “The Solution to Redlining” work! Debra talks about becoming the first woman to hold the leadership position of The Greenlining Institute in the organization’s 26-year history, and tells the stories of how the complexities of growing up in a biracial Black and Japanese family prepared her to lead Greenlining in 2021. She also talks about the history of Greenlining’s work in relation to the concept of “Redlining” and makes the historical parallels that have happened for communities of color during the (now year-long) COVID-19 pandemic and vaccination efforts. Debra and Chevon discuss the fraught topic of recent racial attacks by Black youths against Asian elders and the systemic ways the violence is perpetrated, Greenlining’s ongoing work supporting the Green New Deal and advocating for an Office of Racial Equity in California, and the clear ways advocating for/implementing racial equity policy at the local level can influence federal policy. We also preview a clip of Race Forwards’ #RaceAnd The Movement Forward: Organizing For Racial Justice After the Inauguration, where Race Forward and other organizers/activists discussed the Biden Administration’s first month in office, and analyzed steps taken so far in crafting federal policy to address urgent racial justice priorities.

When we are in community with God, we experience His love. It's the same when we are in community with each other, even if it's online. Paul in the Bible prayed that we would know the hope we've been called to. And that hope is all to do with God's amazing power within us. We've all heard and read about the three things which never fade: faith, hope and love. Everything God does is expressed through God's nature of love. Chevon shows us how God's divine love is the key to becoming full of hope - and spreading that hope.
A historic election in Georgia. The insurrection at the U.S Capitol. President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ inauguration. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Hiba and Chevon return to kick off the second half of Season 2 by addressing everything that happened in the month of January and talking about the work moving forward under a new presidential administration. Fatima Goss Graves, President and CEO of the National Women’s Law Center and co-founder of the Times Up Legal Defense Fund joins Chevon and Hiba to talk about the importance of the new historically-diverse administration, what it means for the future of women and communities of color, and the persistent work, mobilization, and legislative efforts it took to get to this moment –– and why we need to continue pushing even further. Fatima also talks about her journey to becoming involved in gender justice work, the NWLC’s accomplishments as it heads into its 50th year next year, the creation of the Times Up Legal Defense Fund, taking on the leadership of the NWLC at the beginning of the Trump administration, and the NWLC’s new initiative during the beginning of the Biden/Harris administration: 100 Wins, 100 Days: Decisive Actions to Advance Gender Justice. Some important news: Hiba will be going on sabbatical for the next few months, but she will be back for Season 3 –– in the meantime, Chevon and the Momentum team will continue to bring you exciting guests, and all the latest updates within the racial justice movement!

In this special mid-season finale, Chevon and Hiba bring you highlights from the “Culture In the Time of the Uprisings” plenary from Facing Race: A National Virtual Conference, featuring WNBPA Vice President Layshia Clarendon, IllumiNative Executive Director Crystal Echo Hawk, and United We Dream Co-founder Cristina Jiminez. "All periods require a collective leap of imagination. In recent years, artists, athletes, culture-bearers, cultural organizers, and narrative strategists have moved millions to embrace radical racial justice narratives and ideas. Black and Indigenous people and other people of color working in culture expand our desire for racial justice and sense of possibility. How are people innovating and advancing racial justice narratives? How do we think about the cultural battleground now in this time of uprisings? Race Forward is proud to present this plenary of leading cultural organizers, thinkers, and influencers." Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast will be back early in the new year to continue bringing you the latest updates in the fight for racial justice. We wish you all a safe and prosperous New Year, and we look forward to bringing you the answer to the cliffhanger – “What was in the box?”.

Der heutige Co-Trainer des FCBB erzählt in der ersten Folge von "Open Court" über seinen Werdegang beim FC Bayern Basketball, wieso ausgerechnet Paul Zipser seine Karriere beendete und interviewt zu guter Letzt seinen alten Weggefährten Chevon "Chevy" Troutman. Zudem stellt sich Demond der BayWa-Schnellraterunde. Viel Spaß bei der Auftaktfolge von Open Court!
In the aftermath of a nail-biting 2020 Presidential Election, Hiba and Chevon host their first (virtual) live show joined by our Facing Race audience! (recorded via the Hopin platform) Chevon and Hiba lift up the wins driven by Black women and BIPOC communities that were seen and felt across the nation and were instrumental to President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris’ win. From Georgia flipping blue because of massive voter registration efforts to Arizona organizers’ unrelenting work, our hosts discuss how it all collectively came to fruition. Marc Morial, President of the National Urban League, joins Momentum to talk about the energy surrounding the presidential win, the recent lawsuit filed against President Trump’s Executive Order on Combating Race and Sex Stereotyping, which Marc refers to as a “manifesto on white supremacy” and how the new #TruthBeTold campaign is being used to fight back. Marc also talks about the Lost Cause movement from the 1800’s and its ties to censorship today, and why strategic partnerships/coalition building is so important to combat such efforts, such as the emerging partnerships with the NBA, NFL, and the NHL. Race Forward President Glenn Harris makes a special appearance to talk about Race Forward’s #BannedWords campaign, which also addresses the impacts of Executive Order 13950, the priorities the incoming Biden/Harris administration will need to take to reverse the damage from the outgoing administration, and how Momentum has become instrumental during this time in promoting voices and ongoing work from the racial justice movement. Thank you to everyone that helped make Facing Race 2020: A National Virtual Conference a success! Stay tuned for our bonus mid-season finale which will feature highlights from Hiba and Chevon having moderated the “Culture In the Time of the Uprisings” plenary, next time!

Digging into the wonders of Psalm 8, Chevon reminds us that God put the stars into place. An incredible feat - yet He's still mindful of you! You're included in His plans and promises. God wants His narrative to be written into your narrative. But how do we manage the tension between our own narrative and God's meta-narrative? How can we hear God's narrative when our own narrative is screaming so loudly? Chevon reminds us of the incredible things God's meta-narrative offers us, and shares some wisdom and practical ways to discover it, navigate to it and adopt it.
Chevon seven is locked and Scott and Jason bring us to not just Season 3 but Season 4 as well of Stargate.

With one week to go until the 2020 Presidential Election, Hiba and Chevon bring you an election season-themed episode for you to listen to as you make plans to vote [before, or on] Tuesday November 3rd! In this episode, Chevon and Hiba are joined by Nicole Porter, Director of Advocacy for The Sentencing Project, who talks about the newly-released report Locked Out 2020: Estimates of People Denied Voting Rights Due to a Felony Conviction. The report reveals “5.2 million Americans [that] are forbidden to vote because of felony disenfranchisement, or laws restricting voting rights for those convicted of felony-level crimes.” Nicole also talks about her work managing The Sentencing Project’s state and local advocacy efforts on sentencing reform, voting rights, and eliminating racial disparities in the criminal justice system, and provides personal anecdotes to highlight the importance of each of these topics. Hiba and Chevon also discuss recent events in culture in the lead-up to the presidential election, including Ice Cube’s recent controversial meeting with the Trump Administration to promote his “Contract With Black America”, and P. Diddy’s endorsement of Vice President Joe Biden––a reversal from his “Hold The Black Vote” stance earlier this year. In this context, Chevon talks about the importance of creating your own advocacy efforts and how voting is “one lever we can pull” in the broader fight for racial justice. Also, BIG. NEWS. Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast will have a special LIVE post-election episode at Facing Race: A National Virtual Conference taking place Tuesday, November 10th.

[Producer’s Note]: This episode was originally recorded September 24th. After a couple of heavy weeks filled with collective loss and grief, Chevon and Hiba open Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast working through the powerful and difficult emotions generated by Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron’s refusal to prosecute the Breonna Taylor case, and the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. (Do not miss this—Chevon and Hiba have one of the most important conversations that we have ever had the privilege to share.) In this very timely conversation, Hiba and Chevon are joined by the team behind the HBO documentary, Yusuf Hawkins: Storm Over Brooklyn, which “tells the story of Yusuf Hawkins, a black teenager who was murdered in 1989 by a group of young white men in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. Yusuf Hawkins’ death and the official response to it sparked outrage in New York, unleashing a torrent of racial tension and spurring tireless civil rights activism that exposed deep racial prejudices and inequities which continue to plague the country today.” Director Muta’Ali and Producer Victorious Decosta share how they came to work on the film, the behind the scenes experiences working with Yusef’s family and friends to tell his story, and the importance of creating solutions oriented resources in collaboration with activist groups to keep the conversation going for viewers. Muta’Ali and Victorious also talk about the impact of the Breonna Taylor verdict and the parallels to the lack of justice in the Yusef Hawkins case. In the spirit of solidarity and collaboration –– Facing Race: A National Virtual Conference is only one month away, and we’d love to have you join us for the largest multiracial, intergenerational gathering of racial justice movement making.

Isn't it good to hear people's stories. Stories of salvation, healing, freedom from addiction. Chevon looks at the story of when Jesus healed a man who had been paralysed for 38 years - and looks at his "new identity". What we are known for is no match for the identity we find in Jesus. What are you known for? Who or what is the foundation of your identity? Who is your story serving? Listen in and be encouraged as Chevon tackles these questions.
For our season premiere, Chevon and Hiba link up with Blk Pod Collective’s Founder & Chief Creative Officer, Ona Oghogho, and Membership Director Sheunopa Mugobogobo to talk about the growing Black podcasting landscape and the importance of building community and showing solidarity in podcasting. In the conversation Ona and Shenuopa talk about their collaboration in building up Blk Pod Collective, and how their efforts to create systemic change resulted in the Blk Podfest Micro Con at the Podfest Global Summit which brought together over 1,500 attendees last month. Shenuopa and Ona also discuss their experiences that led them to the podcasting space, their individual philosophies in podcasting, the importance of ownership, and the ways Blk Pod Collective is aiming to become the “one-stop-shop for all of your podcasting needs to help you on your journey to work with Black creatives.” Hiba and Chevon also talk about the big news items in the last couple of months, including Senator Kamala Harris’ Vice Presidential nomination, the protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin that resulted from the police involved shooting of Jacob Blake, and they give a heartfelt “rest in power” to Chadwick Boseman who tragically passed a couple of weeks ago following his undisclosed battle with cancer.

What we emphasise is prioritised. Many of the Bible characters discovered that for themselves. But how can we apply that today? How can we have the voice of God lead and shape our own stories? When our conversations are God-centred, they are powerful conversations. They're great stories. Chevon looks at the old Bible story of Elijah and the widow at Zarephath for modern answers to shaping our conversations, having great stories, and prioritising effectively.
In this bonus episode of Momentum, Chevon talks to Hiba (who is also Race Forward’s Conference and Convenings Manager) about everything you need to know about Facing Race: A National Virtual Conference taking place November 10 - 12, 2020! Facing Race is the space for racial justice movement making and is the largest multiracial, intergenerational gathering for organizers, educators, creatives, and other leaders. In this special 10 minute episode, you’ll learn all about: What is Facing Race? Why is Facing Race going virtual? What does registration and pricing look like?

Chevon Powell founded Refuge Outdoor Festival in 2018 to provide joy, community, connection, and refuge in the outdoors for Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and allies. This year's virtual festival will look a little different, but the same level of intention, care, and healing is imbued in each and every detail of the 3-day event.In this episode, we'll hear about the importance of community in Chevon's life and how she's cultivating it from a distance, her philosophy for event planning, and how she strives to create a safer space for festival-goers.Featured in this episode: Chevon Powell, founder of Refuge Outdoor FestivalHosted & Produced by Gale StraubA production of Ravel MediaSponsored by Raycon & Peak ScentsJoin the She Explores Podcast community on FacebookVisit She-Explores.com & Follow Us on InstagramResourcesRefuge Outdoor Festival: Website | Instagram | FacebookSundae Sermon: A Celebration of Black FolksGirl TrekSubmit Your Appalachian Trail StoryRavel MediaSponsors and Discount CodesPeak Scents: Get 20% your order when you use the code EXPLORE20 at checkout at PeakScents.com.Raycon: Get 15% off your order at BuyRaycon.com/explore.Episodes air weekly on Wednesdays-- subscribe wherever you listen so you never miss an episode.Ad Music is by Josh Woodward, Swelling, & Lee Rosevere.Other music is by Eric Kinny via Music Bed.
What is the way of God? Chevon helps us to see that it's love. God tells and shows us that He is Love. Love is in His DNA. And it's love which identifies us as followers of God. As a church, "Love, Grow, Serve" is the language we have put to living practically for Jesus. But how do we apply that personally? Chevon takes a look at the popular Bible passage which demonstrates the way of love - 1 Corinthians 13 - and, together with her own love-story, uncovers the extravagant way of God: love.
In our season finale, Demos President K. Sabeel Rahman joins Hiba and Chevon for an exciting conversation addressing racial and economic inequities to boldly fight for the future of American democracy. Sabeel shares his experiences growing up as a first generation Muslim Bangladeshi-American to becoming an Associate Professor of Law at Brooklyn Law School and his current role, leading the innovative work at Demos. In the conversation, Sabeel talks to our hosts about the inspiration behind his books, Democracy Against Domination, and Civic Power, his take on the fight for constitutional law to be applied equitably, and the important reconciliatory work that will be essential beyond the November election. Chevon and Hiba also talk about the recent win in Asheville, North Carolina which will see the city provide investment based reparations to its Black residents, and give a big shout out to our GARE (Government Alliance on Racial Equity) team members for their important contributions in this step towards racial justice. Thank you to all who submitted ratings and reviews –– we shout out some of our listeners, and we’re looking forward to continuing to share the love!

We’re in the full swing of summer, and Chevon and Hiba are diving into a conversation about representation in the superhero universe and the comic book world! DC Comics authors Gene Luen Yang and Minh Le join our hosts to talk about their projects “Superman Smashes The Klan” and “Green Lantern Legacy” and how their art and stories fit into the broader context around diversity and inclusion in superhero narratives.

How do we navigate life with the mind of Christ? By changing gear. But how do we do that? How do we know when to change gears in life? How can we get the timing right? Chevon looks at what the Bible says - and shares some personal and amusing stories - to show us how to choose the right gear at the right time so that we can be much more efficient and navigate this changing season well.
Glenn Harris, President of Race Forward and Publisher of Colorlines, joins Hiba and Chevon for a timely conversation on “the moment” our nation is facing, and the disproportionate impacts COVID-19 has had on communities of color. Race Forward responded swiftly to the crisis, and they discuss the work being undertaken within the racial justice movement to safeguard our democracy in another tumultuous election year. We also include audio from last week’s Building a Movement: A Virtual Town Hall with Minneapolis Organizers, a powerful online event where we heard directly from long-time activists building a movement to end police violence and systemic racism in our communities. In recognition of Juneteeth, Chevon and Hiba discuss their personal efforts to learn and engage with the spirit of the holiday, and talk about the recent landmark Supreme Court Title VII ruling, which prohibits employment discrimination against LGBTQ people. –– Resources (by order of mention) The Time For Reparations Is Now [Op-Ed] by Yirssi Bergman, Shweta Moorthy, and Juell Stewart (via Colorlines)www.colorlines.com/articles/time-reparations-now-op-ed SCOTUS Says: The 1964 Civil Rights Act Protects LGBTQ+ People, Too (via Colorlines) www.colorlines.com/articles/scotus-says-1964-civil-rights-act-protects-lgbtq-people-too Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley on Ending “Qualified Immunity”www.twitter.com/RepPressley/status/1272575869400371200?s=20 Laverne Cox on the SCOTUS Title VII Ruling Prohibiting LGBTQ Employment Discriminationwww.twitter.com/AlexPattyy/status/1272567736707801091?s=20 Building a Movement: A Virtual Town Hall with Minneapolis Organizers (hosted by Race Forward)www.facebook.com/RaceForward/videos/209147303485329 Angela Davis Talks 'Orange is the New Black,' Prison Abolition (via Colorlines)www.colorlines.com/articles/angela-davis-talks-orange-new-black-prison-abolition Glenn Harris, President of Race Forward and Publisher of Colorlineswww.raceforward.org/about/staff/glenn-harris “What is systemic racism?

Spending time outside isn't just about solitude and silence. At the Refuge Outdoor Festival, a 3-day camping experience outside of Seattle, WA, people of color and allies are invited to gather and build community. We chat with Chevon, the founder of Refuge, and also her parents who traveled all the way from Houston, Texas to camp for the first time. This episode is sponsored by REI. Stay tuned for a sneak peek into their newest initiative: Race and Pace
Angela Glover Blackwell, founder in residence at Policylink, and host of the new Radical Imagination Podcast, joins Chevon and Hiba to talk about her longtime work as a leading voice in the movement for equity and racial justice. In this conversation, Angela talks about the “racial moment” we are currently living, and challenges us to think radically in creating narratives that will lead to concrete solutions. Drawing on a lifetime of experience as an activist, Angela provides a reframing of “hopelessness” in this moment in the U.S., and inspires us to use the moment as an opportunity for important social change. We introduce our brand new Colorlines series “Who Do We Think We Are” by Race Forward’s Senior Fellow, Rosana Cruz that is timely in the wake of the recent “American Dirt” book controversy. Hiba sits with Rosana for a conversation about the creation of the series, and their experience interviewing Latinx-identified movement leaders, artists, and cultural innovators about how they define themselves racially. Hiba and Chevon also discuss the former ‘Biggest Loser’ trainer Jillian Michaels and her recent comments on Lizzo’s body image, Lizzo’s response and self-affirmations, and place Michaels’ comments in the context of systemic racism, anti-blackness, and fatphobia.

Chevon Semmens is the creator and owner of Little Land, Perth’s newest play space that offers a scaled down version of the real world that inspires children to learn through role-play. What we love about Little Land’s origin story is how much time and effort Chevon put into preparing for her launch. She created a focus group of industry professionals, collaborated with local government agencies, collected data from the City of Stirling, engaged high quality reputable brand and website developers and hit the socials hard for 9 whole months before first day of operation. Chevon put herself out there and, day by day, post by post, she moulded her vision into a reality. She collects feedback from customers, her staff and her original focus group in order to make visible change. She balances being a Mum of two young boys with building a business that is inspiring children to learn through role-play all over Perth. Listen and learn guys! You're going to need a pen and paper at the ready.

Learn if the economy can get to 5% GDP growth quickly or not. Weakest GDP since 2011 - went from 3.5% to 1.9% in one quarter! Lower earnings reported by Chevon, other energy companies, Google, Colgate-Palmolive and Starbucks. Even with some disappointing corporate results, fourth-quarter earnings are expected to show growth of 6.8 percent, which would mark the biggest increase in two years and second straight quarter of growth, according to Thomson Reuters data. Dow hit 20,000 for the first time. Took 18 years to double - that’s a 4% average annual return. Is most of the good news already baked into 2017? Consumer spending is up .5% in December, largest jump in 3 months, which is 2/3 of the economy. Good news there. Pending home sales up 1.9%, 17 year shortage of housing. Trump growth of 5% is going to take a while and won’t happen right away. Cycles are showing massive swings up and down in the market this year. FED may raise rates 3 times - inflation is flaring up. IMO, we have the EU break up to look forward to, a European bank failure, and a lot of cash flowing into our markets as a safe haven from China and Europe. Other countries have been moving their funds here from China, Russia and Europe and that will likely pick up. Cycles are showing some extreme volatility and since this is the second longest bull market ever, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the economy weaken even to the point of recession and the stock market have a meaningful pullback. Increased volatility. Rather than try to short it, I suggest you get your shopping list ready to buy the dips, when there is real fear. Look to corporate bonds for income and stay away from bond funds. It will take time for President Trump to turn the economy into a faster growth GDP. In the meantime, there will be wild swings as the dollar and other currencies fluctuate. To get “11 Quick Financial Tips to Boost Your Wealth”, go to www.lindapjones.com.
