“Am I scaring you little girl?”-- 8-year-old Jennifer is scared of the dark, and on the one night her mother asks her to sleep in her own room, she wakes up in the arms of a police officer carrying her out of the house in the middle of the night. The man wants her to believe that she is safe, but she realizes he doesn't have a badge as he drives off to a remote area. Later that night, her kidnapper leaves her for dead in the middle of a field after brutally attacking her, and from that moment on, Jennifer vows to remember every single detail about him in order to make sure he's caught. Her injuries leave her unable to talk, yet she still finds a way to catch him… 19 years later.

Whether or not we consider ourselves "creative" or "leaders," how can we still find ways to create and lead?How do we make decisions?

Meet Gregg Potter:He is an international collaboration coach and the founder & CEO of Project Connect. A marketing firm in Madison, Wisconsin. He has worked in the restaurant industry. As a general manager, district manager, and consultant with a good amount of time spent at Starbucks in Los Angeles. He uses his experience and training as a facilitator, a futurist, and a conflict resolution mediator to support executives and organizations as a collaboration coach. This work deconstructs collaboration and finds the best ways to lead and design the work to be more efficient and create more impactful results. He has a BFS in theatre performance from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and a master's in public service from the Clinton School of Public Service. Kris: So anyway, Gregg, what does a collaboration coach do?Gregg: Yes, first, I need to go back to episode three of your I have to like gush a little bit of a big fan. Yes. And it's Yeah, so what you're doing is very unique, and it is bringing out strains of information that not a lot of people are talking about. So thank you. Okay, I'll go back to what is it. What is it Collaboration Coach too, essentially, it is to get collaborations, more effective and more impactful, that can be done either if we're working directly with a CEO or someone in the C suite, and having those coaching conversations of like, Okay, how did this go? Where's your ego in this, what's going on, and then the, you know, in practicing going back, while also learning my framework of collaboration, which is the lifecycle of collaboration. The other way is actually bringing a collaboration coach on as a contracted employee for a while, and working side by side as a facilitator and coach to the entire collaborative team. Okay, so that can look like facilitating meetings, while also holding the team accountable to this is work time. This is not a question-and-answer time like this is when we're trying to get this portion of the goal or the objective finished. So then we can all come back and assess where we're at. This also is leadership development, facilitation, skills development, and working conflict resolution into the culture of collaboration, which often will, you know, bleed into the company's culture. But sometimes these collaborations are multi-company or multi-organization collaborations, where then it really gets tricky, or collaborations that have collaborations in them.Lori: So how does this tie into the manufacturing world?Gregg: Oh, yeah. There are a few things that Collaboration Coach can specifically help with. And in the manufacturing world, there are two very big ones. One is focusing on silo mentality, and bridging the silos and the communication between silos. Kris, you and I were at dinner one night, we talked big time about the sales team and the marketing team. And, you know, and how sometimes, those two silos are not talking at all. And they are one they are like, together, they're the most important part often, of the collaboration. So definitely that, and then, um, and then increasing productivity. And that's through communication barriers. And if we can create the space, and make sure that everyone trusts and shows up authentically, then we're going to increase productivity ultimately and build a bottom line. So when it comes to manufacturing, those are the two pieces that I see the most.Kris: So Gregg, we're curious, is there something unique about you that nobody else knows that you could share with us?Gregg: I think the thing that people often look at as a possible weakness, which is something about me, that I love is that I really do care about how people are being held in spaces. And that shows up with you know, me pulling in integrity, like, Okay, I'm you know, is this person

With high voter turnout and some surprising results across the country, the 2022 midterm elections are almost over. Returns from some key races are not yet in, but outcomes indicate that Republicans did not gain as much ground as predicted in early polling. Arkansans woke up to the state’s first female governor after Sarah Huckabee Sanders beat Democratic opponent Chris Jones. Attorney General Leslie Rutledge defeated liberal opponent Kelly Krout to become the first female lieutenant governor here. Republicans maintained firm control of the state’s legislature. Voters did not pass an initiative to legalize recreational marijuana in the state. Constituents in Craighead County voted in favor of decreasing funding for public libraries there, which could pave the way for similar movements in Arkansas and elsewhere in the U.S. To break down the results, the surprises and what it all could mean for the 2024 presidential election, Skip Rutherford, dean emeritus of the Clinton School of Public Service, joins Capitol & Scott the day after Election Day. Rutherford served as a key advisor to former President Bill Clinton’s presidential campaigns and is an expert election pundit.

The college application process is a multi-billion dollar industry that profits from fear, uncertainty and doubt. But there are ways to take back control of the process, or at the very least take the anxiety and stress out of it. Our guest today is Tracy Schaffzin, a guidance counselor at The Clinton School in New York City. We'll discuss ways to determine if college is even right for your child and if so, how to navigate the sometimes oversized feelings that go with finding the right fit. We'll offer techniques for dealing with your child's feelings about the process, from calming the overachiever to motivating the apathetic teenager. You'll hear about effective search strategies that keep your kid's self-worth intact and avoid falling into the trap of wanting to only go to high profile “name” schools.

The man, the myth, the legend, 27 years on air, nearly 4000 episodes, one of the longest-running talk show hosts in history, Jerry Springer!  Jerry, Jerry, Jerry!  And he had a question ready for my daddy too!  This episode was a dream, one I won't forget!  Definitely not censored! The successful have a calming effect because they got there and they're seeing us from a different sightline.  That's the calm we have to get to.  Would you want to be famous?  I truly believe Jerry's legacy is all the lives he's touched and the careers he's made, we are all taking a piece of him with us.  What does legacy mean to Jerry?  How does show business work?  What advice does Jerry give?  How does one become a star? The Jerry Springer Show was one of the best experiences of my life!  Today we talk about what it was really like behind the scenes of producing the show and the American Dream!  Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy! Throughout an illustrious career, Jerry Springer has become a cultural and civic icon. In addition to being one of the world's most well-known talk show hosts, Springer has been the mayor of Cincinnati, a political pundit, lawyer, Emmy award-winning newscaster, game show host, country recording artist, international emcee, and TV personality. Springer has been in movies and on Broadway, he's a progressive talk-radio broadcaster and Springer won America's hearts with his ballroom dancing. Recently Springer added Podcaster with the wildly popular “Tales, Tunes and Tomfoolery” at www.JerrySpringer.com   Because of the lasting popularity of his talk show and political interests, Springer has become a favorite guest speaker at college campuses across the USA and the world. In recent years, Springer was welcomed at The Clinton School of Public Service, Harvard, Yale, Georgetown, George Washington, American University, Tulane, as well as other academic institutions.   Springer was personally invited by both the Oxford Union of Oxford University and Cambridge University to participate in their guest lecture series. In Oxford, Springer broke all attendance records for that long-standing series and has been invited back several times. In 2011, Springer kicked off the prestigious Eisenhower Symposium at Johns Hopkins University speaking on the topic of “America's Boundless Possibilities.” Everyone knew Springer had "arrived" as a true cultural icon when he was the featured character in The Simpsons' 1998 Halloween Special.  He has also graced the cover of Rolling Stone, Esquire, TV Guide and New York Magazine. Springer has also joined the exclusive club of being named one of Barbara Walters 10 Most Fascinating People. "Ringmaster" hit bookstore shelves in 1998. Penned by Springer, it was a personal account of his experiences along with remembrances from his childhood and professional career. Also, in 1998, Springer made his first venture into feature films, starring in Ringmaster, a fictionalized movie chronicling his television talk show. In 1999, Springer teamed up with Mike Myers, where he portrayed himself in the hit movie "Austin Powers 2: The Spy Who Shagged Me." In 2009, Springer brought his comedic skills and theatrical style to London's West End playing the role of Billy Flynn in the hit musical production of Chicago. Warwick Thompson of Bloomberg News, said, "There's the sheer pleasure of watching a genial TV pundit in a fish-out-of-water situation and having a good time.”  Springer reprised the role in the United States and, as a culmination, played Billy Flynn on Broadway – a life-changing event for Springer.   A parody of The Jerry Springer Show, Jerry Springer: The Opera played in London to sold-out crowds at the prestigious National Theater and then won the Lawrence Olivier Award for best musical which is akin to the Tony Awards. The Opera toured throughout England and received outstanding reviews. The Opera had its New York premiere at Carnegie Hall in January of 2008 with movie star Harvey Keitel playing the role of Springer. JSTO continues to travel across the USA and the world to sold-out crowds and controversial but rave reviews.   Additionally, Springer has hosted a variety show in England and South Africa. The South African program was broadcast in more than 40 African nations, featuring interviews with celebrities, monologues, and skits in front of a live studio audience. It ranked among the most popular television show in South Africa.  All proceeds from the show went to AIDS charities. Springer has spread his wings recording two CD's in Nashville, one aptly titled "Dr. Talk." He has also twice served as the master of ceremonies for the “Miss World Pageant.” Springer added a Broadway appearance to his distinguished list of achievements, starring for a week in the production of the Rocky Horror Show Live. Springer again hit the London stage in a limited engagement playing the role of Captain Hook in the UK New Wimbledon Theatre's production of Peter Pan. Gerald Norman Springer was born on February 13, 1944 in London's Highgate Tube station (subway station) due to the bombs falling on London during World War II. His parents had successfully fled Eastern Europe and the Holocaust but unfortunately, Springer lost most of his family in the concentration camps.   At 5 years old, Springer and his family immigrated to New York City from London on the Queen Mary. For the Springer family, America represented a place where people could live without the persecution his parents knew all too well. They settled in Kew Gardens, Queens. His college years took him south to Louisiana, where he earned a degree in political science at Tulane University. He then received his law degree from Northwestern University in Illinois. In 1968, his life changed during a dinner meeting with then New York Senator, Robert Kennedy, who was running for president behind the push for social change. Springer signed on with the Kennedy campaign, but shortly thereafter felt the horror of Kennedy's assassination along with the rest of the world. That moment in history served as a catalyst for Springer, compelling him into political action which he has never abandoned. After joining a law firm in Cincinnati, he spearheaded the movement in Ohio to lower the voting age from 21 to 18, culminating with Springer being invited to address the Senate Judiciary Committee giving testimony in support of ratification of the 26th Amendment to the Constitution. He ran for Congress in Ohio in 1970, nearly beating the entrenched Republican incumbent. In 1971, he won a seat on the Cincinnati City Council and served five terms before becoming mayor at the age of 33 with the largest plurality in the city's history. He was the youngest Mayor ever elected to a major US city at that time. After an unsuccessful bid for governor of Ohio in 1982, Springer was courted by the big three networks, ultimately signing with the then last place NBC affiliate, WLWT. As their anchor and Managing Editor, Springer took WLWT to first place. It was his nightly commentaries, the precursor to his now legendary "Final Thought," that landed him seven Emmys. Springer was voted television's best anchor for five consecutive years by readers of Cincinnati Magazine.   While Springer was still successfully anchoring and managing the news in Cincinnati, he was ‘assigned' a new job as host of a new talk show. The company that owned the NBC station in Cincinnati also owned The Sally Jesse Raphael Show and The Phil Donahue Show. So, in September of 1991, The Jerry Springer Show was born. The show was shot in Cincinnati the first year and Jerry continued to do evening news. The show moved to Chicago in its second year, expanding the number of syndicated markets. Jerry would tape shows in Chicago in the morning and fly back to Cincinnati to do the evening news. Finally, in 1993, Springer did his last newscast in Cincinnati although he still thinks of that city as ‘home.' In May of 2008, Springer was invited to be Commencement Speaker at his alma mater, Northwestern University School of Law, Juris Doctor 1968. Springer ended his address with a story about his parents, who escaped the Holocaust and immigrated to the United States in 1949. "In one generation here in America, my family went from near-total annihilation to the ridiculously privileged life I live today because of my show," Springer said, his voice wavering slightly. "Indeed, in America, all things are possible."   Thank you to our new sponsor wtfnovelties.com omg to their website.  Use the code Daddy25 for 25% off sitewide except for single balls because one ball ain't enough.  Perfect for Purim baskets, Passover gag gifts, or Easter egg hunts!

Ep 217 | Aired 11/4/2020 After years of community service and an illustrious political career, my guest today on Up In Your Business with Kerry McCoy, Mr. Skip Rutherford, has decided to step out of the limelight this December and retire from his role as Dean of the Clinton School of Public Service. It was 1978 when Mr. Rutherford became interested in politics and volunteered to work on David Pryor’s first Senate run. Ten years later, Skip was named chairman for the Democratic Party of Arkansas and went on to assimilate an impressive resume spanning four decades. On today’s show, Mr. Rutherford talks about his first meeting and lifelong friendship with President Bill Clinton; what he said when he was asked to work on Governor Clinton’s presidential campaign; and why he chose, unlike his peers, to stay in Little Rock when President Clinton went to Washington. Listen to hear Skip’s story about what he mistakenly overlooked on the Clinton Library’s grand opening weekend in downtown Little Rock, Arkansas.

Nikolai DiPippa, Clinton School Director of Public Programs, sat down with Rebecca Harper. In today’s world, the intersection of home and academic literacies often is non-existent. Yet, individuals practice sophisticated literacy skills on a daily basis. Unfortunately, these are often overlooked in lieu of traditional literacy practices. As a literacy professor, reading and writing are Rebecca Harper’s areas of expertise, but she learned more from literacy tasks in real life than in courses taken during her doctoral program. Join her for a lecture in real world literacy as she shares what pinball, her mother’s eulogy, and ESPN taught her about literacy and how it transformed literacy practices. Harper is and assistant professor of literacy in the Department of Advanced Studies and Innovation at Augusta University.

Nikolai DiPippa, Clinton School Director of Public Programs, sat down with Marjorie Spruill. Forty years ago, two women’s movements drew a line in the sand between liberals and conservatives. The legacy of that rift is still evident today in American politics and social policies. Gloria Steinem was quoted in 2015 in The New Yorker as saying the National Women’s Conference in 1977 “…may take the prize as the most important event nobody knows about.” After the United Nations established International Women’s Year (IWY) in 1975, Congress mandated and funded state conferences to elect delegates to attend the National Women’s Conference in Houston in 1977. At that conference, Bella Abzug, Steinem, and other feminists adopted a National Plan of Action, endorsing the hot-button issues of abortion rights, the Equal Rights Amendment, and gay rights – the latter a new issue in national politics. Across town, Phyllis Schlafly, Lottie Beth Hobbs, and the conservative women’s movement held a massive rally to protest federally funded feminism and launch a Pro-Family movement. “Divided We Stand” reveals how the battle between feminists and their conservative challengers divided the nation as Democrats continued to support women’s rights and Republicans cast themselves as the party of family values.

Nikolai DiPippa, Clinton School Director of Public Programs, sat down with Kathy Izard. Mrs. Izard was enjoying a comfortable existence when she came face to face with the reality that while her dedicated service at the community soup kitchen might be feeding her soul, it would never solve the bigger needs of the homeless population. Confronting the question of where are the beds? Kathy realized that she had been called to take on what seemed like an insurmountable task – to build housing for Charlotte’s homeless. Woven together with this uplifting story of a call to social action is Kathy’s personal struggle with faith, forgiveness, and fulfillment. In telling her story, Kathy invites you to consider rewriting your own. What’s calling you? And as crazy at it seems, it may be crazier not to try.

Nikolai DiPippa, Clinton School Director of Public Programs, sat down with Bill Meyer. While the power of mindfulness and meditation have become well-known in the culture at large, their use in education is just beginning. But teachers who incorporate moments of stillness, breath awareness, and calming images know how potent these practices are for creating focus and facilitating learning. “Three Breaths and Begin” is about practice, written by a schoolroom teacher who has shared these practices with students, teachers, and parents in a variety of real-world settings. Meyer details exactly how a teacher can use meditation techniques each and every day. From the very beginning of introducing the practice to students by creating a space within the classroom, to meditating on field trips, in sports setting, and in the midst of tragedy, he sets forth scripted meditations, with every aspect of conducting, running, and reflecting on the meditation considered.

Nikolai DiPippa, Clinton School Director of Public Programs, sat down with Stuart Newberger. Renowned international terrorism litigation attorney Stuart Newberger has helped hundreds of American victims of state-sponsored terrorism, and their families, find justice, through his work with international law firm Crowell & Moring in Washington, D.C.  In his book, “The Forgotten Flight: Terrorism, Diplomacy and the Pursuit of Justice,” Newberger asks how we can bring leaders of sovereign nations to account for their crimes.

Her extensive research – including interviews with Tony Alamo himself, harrowing visits to Alamo compounds, and witnessing gut-wrenching confrontations between freed children and their unreformed parents – tells the story of a closed group whose origins and history are unlikely ever to be definitively unraveled.
