Is AI coming for your job? Boston Consulting Group's Global Lead for People and Organization, David Martin, reveals the truth about workforce disruption, survival strategies, reskilling, and the future of work.With only 20% of employees effectively using AI tools despite 80% expressing excitement, discover why adoption is failing and what leaders must do differently.

In this Debrief episode, we kick off with the bizarre trend of men shaving their eyelashes, a quirky gateway into a deeper discussion about how AI might be dulling our problem-solving and empathetic abilities. From there, we confront social media's culture of complaint, emphasizing the value of personal accountability and small, consistent action. Shifting to leadership, we question the obsession with KPIs, advocating instead for empathy-driven innovation. Finally, inspired by figures like Anthony Mackie, we explore modern masculinity, physical readiness, and the power of using digital platforms for growth.

I wanted to have Dan on the show to learn more about the inner workings of the mysterious private tutor world.  When I was coming up, private tutors were hardly a thing; now, they can be a difference maker.  Access to elite educational opportunities is a key line of division in our fracturing society and, while in education we tend to look for systemic solutions, what's going on with private tutors suggests that individual intervention may be where we want to focus.  Tune in to this fascinating conversation to learn:Why parents around the world are willing to pay people like Dan upwards of $2000 per hour to help their kids do better on standardized testsWhat close reading is and why it's the secret to standardized test success Just what is being measured by standardized tests, and why should we care about itWhy, despite their issues and limitations, many schools are turning back to standardized test scores to help sort candidatesHow the best schools in the world are designed to create lifelong learners rather than for information/curriculum deliveryAnd Much, much moreConnect with Nick Halaris: Nick Halaris website and newletter (sign up!)

Not all kids learn the same way, but many parents are left feeling confused, guilty, or overwhelmed when their child struggles in school. What if the real issue isn't behavior or motivation but something deeper? In this episode, I sit down with Rich Frieder, owner of LearningRx, a brain training center that helps kids and adults improve the cognitive skills that impact how they learn, read, and process information. Rich shares his personal story of navigating his own daughter's learning challenges, why standard interventions like IEPs or tutoring often miss the mark, and how cognitive training gets to the root cause of why a child might be struggling. We talk about the emotional toll on families, the difference between accommodating vs. addressing the issue, and how to build resilience in kids without mowing down every obstacle. Tune in for a powerful conversation about hope, strategy, and why you don't have to choose between supporting your child and raising them to be capable.

Ransomware attacks targeting small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) have reached alarming levels, with a recent UK government survey revealing that 1% of organizations reported such incidents, affecting approximately 19,000 entities. This marks a significant increase from the previous year, highlighting a troubling trend where nation-state actors are increasingly focusing on SMBs due to their often inadequate cybersecurity measures. The survey also indicates a decline in board-level cybersecurity responsibility, with only 27% of businesses having a cyber specialist on their board, down from 38% four years ago. As the frequency of ransomware incidents decreases, the cost per incident is rising, emphasizing the need for resilience-focused security measures.In addition to ransomware, a vulnerability in Google's OAuth system has been exploited by phishers to create sophisticated attacks that mimic legitimate emails from Google. This DKIM replay phishing attack allows hackers to bypass security checks, making it difficult for users to detect scams. A notable case involved a developer receiving a fraudulent email that appeared to be a legitimate security alert. This incident underscores the importance of updating security awareness training, as traditional methods may not adequately prepare users for such advanced phishing techniques.Another significant security concern arose from a flaw in Gladinet's Centristack file-sharing platform, which allows remote code execution due to a deserialization issue linked to hard-coded cryptographic keys. This vulnerability has already been exploited in multiple cases, raising alarms within the cybersecurity community. Gladinet has advised customers to upgrade or change their keys to mitigate potential threats. Additionally, Microsoft acknowledged a flaw in its Intune device management tool that inadvertently allowed unauthorized Windows 11 upgrades, prompting organizations to revert affected devices.On a different note, Wikipedia has partnered with Kaggle to create a machine-readable dataset of its content for training AI models, addressing the challenges posed by content scraping. This initiative aims to manage the rising costs associated with non-human traffic while protecting contributors' rights under Creative Commons licensing. Meanwhile, concerns have emerged regarding the impact of AI on human intelligence, with studies indicating that reliance on AI tools may inhibit critical thinking skills, particularly among younger users. As organizations navigate the complexities of AI integration, the need for resilient systems that can adapt to these changes becomes increasingly critical. Four things to know today 00:00 Ransomware Evolves: Targeting Improves, Board Accountability Wanes, and SMBs Face Growing Geopolitical Risk03:32 Secure by Default?

America faces a reading crisis that's worsening despite decades of curriculum changes and interventions. In this eye-opening continuation of our Brainy Moms series on reading, Dr. Amy and Sandy interview reading and dyslexia specialist Donesa Walker. We explore why reading scores keep declining nationwide and what parents can do about it.Louisiana's dramatic rise from near-bottom to 16th in national reading rankings offers valuable insights. Their success came through mandatory science of reading training for all teachers, high-dose tutoring for struggling students, and crucially, empowering parents with educational choices. Yet even this success story highlights a fundamental truth: schools cannot bear sole responsibility for reading achievement.The discussion takes a fascinating turn when we examine the cognitive foundations of reading. Processing speed, working memory, attention, and other brain skills form the bedrock upon which reading abilities are built. Without these foundations, reading interventions become like "laying asphalt over potholes" – temporarily effective but ultimately failing to create lasting change.Donesa explains why traditional reading interventions often show disappointing results in research studies – they simply don't address the underlying cognitive weaknesses. Meanwhile, a program called ReadRx combine cognitive training with reading instruction and has demonstrated dramatic improvements, with studies showing 4-5 year gains in just 24 weeks.We also explore how background knowledge shapes reading comprehension. When children lack rich experiences that build vocabulary and background knowledge, reading becomes an empty exercise. This explains why the number of books in a home directly correlates with reading test results, and why programs providing free books to children make such a difference.The conversation concludes with a paradigm-shifting perspective: every parent is essentially a homeschool parent, simply choosing where and by whom curriculum is delivered. This perspective empowers families to take control of their children's reading journey, filling curriculum gaps and providing the experiences and cognitive development necessary for reading success.Join us to discover practical strategies for developing your child's reading skills beyond the classroom, and learn why brain health deserves the same attention as physical health in today's educational landscape.CONNECT WITH US: Website: www.TheBrainyMoms.com Email: info@TheBrainyMoms.com Social Media: @TheBrainyMoms Our sponsor's website: www.LearningRx.comSandy's TikTok: @TheBrainTrainerLadyDr. Amy's brand new IG: @DrAmySaysGraceDr. Amy's website: www.AmyMoorePhD.com

Do you prefer multistory episodes, single story episodes, or a mix? Let us know! In this episode of Discover Daily, host Sienna explores the fascinating world of the Trachtenberg system, a unique method of rapid mental calculation developed by Russian engineer Jakow Trachtenberg during his imprisonment in Nazi concentration camps. This innovative approach to arithmetic eliminates the need for multiplication tables, relying instead on a set of readily memorized operations that allow users to perform lightning-fast computations by "reading" numbers and applying logical rules.Sienna delves into the remarkable impacts of the Trachtenberg system, particularly in education, where children who had struggled with traditional math have shown significant improvements in both skills and confidence. She also examines the cognitive benefits of the system, including enhanced memory capacity, visual memory, and concentration. The episode features a step-by-step walkthrough of a complex example using the Trachtenberg technique for multiplying two-digit numbers by 11, making early entry into the method accessible.Join Sienna as she uncovers the inspiring story behind the Trachtenberg system and explores how this innovative approach to mental math can unlock our mental potential and open up new possibilities.

Remembering to perform a future action is a critical part of daily life. Psychologists refer to this as our “prospective memory,” and some examples include remembering to pay bills on time, returning library books when they're due, or getting to doctor's appointments.Brooke Beech is a Washington State University doctoral student specializing in clinical neuropsychology. She works with older adults to examine how aging affects thinking and everyday behavior. “I have a particular interest in factors that relate to everyday memory,” Beech says.During normal aging, most people will experience a mild, gradual decline in their prospective memory. But there are tools available to help compensate for memory loss. They can be as simple as leaving a pill box on the counter as a memory aide for taking medication or setting a phone alarm as a reminder to complete a task, Beech says.Her recent research compared the effectiveness of paper memory aides—such as written notes on a calendar—versus technology-driven memory aides. In healthy older adults, both methods yielded similar results.“At the end of the day, having memory strategies that you like, are comfortable with, and that you'll use consistently is really what matters,” Beech says.Learn moreWSU Neuropsychology and Aging LabWSU Department of Psychology“Healthy lifestyles protect brains...and lower dementia risk” (Fall 2024 Washington State Magazine)CogSMARTTrialMatch (Alzheimer's Association)Support the Show.______________________________________________________________________________Want more great WSU stories?

So it came to no one's surprise when Kamilah decided to pursue a career in speech pathology. Instead, it was Kamilah's love of working with older patients that often surprised those around her. Yet this love is exactly what led Kamilah to creating a revolutionary app to help her older patients increase their language, speech, and cognitive skills.

Cognitive Skills are common elements in any leadership model, and most leaders excel at these qualities. However, traditional leadership models may emphasise aspects such as analytical thinking, rational decision-making, or logic. Of course, such skills are still critical today. However, leaders need to expand their cognitive skill set according to the context we are operating in nowadays. The world is highly interconnected and complex, and the speed of change can be overwhelming.The Inner Development Goals (IDG) offer a new leadership framework to tackle today's challenges. In this third episode on the IDGs, we discuss the second category of this framework: Thinking. It consists of five skills and qualities:Complexity Awareness goes beyond mere awareness but includes understanding and skills in working with systemic conditions and causalities (systems theory). We can't possibly know all the parameters and casualties that impact outcomes. Leaders can't control an organisation like a machine but can influence the system through their interactions with others.Perspective Skills refer to “seeking, understanding and actively making use of insights from contrasting perspectives.” This requires humility, awareness of blind spots, and the openness to invite views that are very different from ours.Sense-Making is directly related to how the human brain operates. We continuously interpret what is going on in our environment and adapt accordingly. This is critical for survival. However, we must challenge whether our sense-making of the past is still useful today. In addition, we make sense through our interactions with others, and we need to share our thinking processes to do so more effectively.Critical Thinking is what most leaders are very good at already. The art is in applying critical thinking in the right places: at times, we may be overly critical, slowing things down unnecessarily, or frustrating others. On other occasions, we might not be critical enough, especially when we are influenced by our own confirmation bias.Long-term Orientation & Visioning is another area in which most leaders do quite well. The challenge is often in a) defining short-term goals which support the long-term vision and goals and b) sustaining the commitment to achieving the long-term goals.Reflection Questions for Leaders:How can I let go of control and instead, exert influence  to achieve the organisational goals?How well do I understand the degree of complexity in a situation?Where may I tend to oversimplify, where might I make things too complicated?What (or who's) perspective are we missing here?How aware am I of my blind spots?How well do I nurture a climate  for different perspectives to be shared?Where might past sense-making limit me in the future? What might I need to re-visit in a different context today?How do I make my own sense-making more transparent and involving?Looking at the five THINKING skills and qualities, which ones do need to further develop to remain successful in the future?See also:The Inner Development Goals - The Leadership Model for the Futureand Why Successful Leaders Focus on "Being" before "Doing" － Inner Development Goals Part 2More info about us and our work: secondcrackleadership.com
