Let's discuss motivation. Self-Determination Theory says that human beings are active organisms with evolved tendencies toward growth, mastery, and integration of new experiences into a coherent sense of self. These natural tendencies toward growth and development are automatic, however. The social context is an essential factor, and it can either support or thwart our development. And so, there exists a dialectic relationship between the organism and its social context. This is the basis for SDT's predictions about human behaviour, experience, and development. It is formed aroun d three basic assumptions;* Autonomy: The human need to self-regulate our experiences and actions* Competence: Our basic need to feel effective and masterful in a given discipline* Relatedness: Our feelings of social connection and meaningful relationshipsSDT speaks of psychological “nutriments” for healthy human development and functioning, and we realise these through the fulfilment of basic psychological needs for Autonomy, Competence, and Relatedness. To the extent that these psychological needs are satisfied on an ongoing basis, people develop and function along healthy lines. However, if these psychological needs are thwarted, people will more likely experience the absence of well-being and sub-optimal functioning.The darker aspects of human behaviour, such as psychopathology, prejudice, and aggression, are understood as reactions to thwarting of basic psychological needs. In other words, where our basic psychological needs are not supported, we develop compensatory or defensive strategies. We literally have to fight for psychological survival. In overly controlling, rejecting, critical, and negative situations, we are more likely to become self-protecting, self-focused, defensive, aggressive, and antisocial.Ryan and Deci's theory of self-determination refers to these basic psychological needs as proximal satisfactions and says that they are, in the most profound sense, the essence of human thriving. The research suggests that in all social contexts, be that work or play, where there is support for our satisfactions, we express our curiosity, creativity, productivity, and compassion for others to the highest levels.Essential Mental Skills Is Launching SoonThe Essential Mental Skills Course is launching soon.

In this episode, we explore what an ancient shepherding metaphor can teach us about modern safety leadership. Inspired by The Good Shepherd, an article written by David McPeak, CUSP, CIT, CHST, CSP, CSSM for Incident Prevention magazine, we unpack how the timeless relationship between shepherd and sheep mirrors the dynamic between safety leaders and their teams. Through the lens of the C5 Safety Leadership Model—Competence, Commitment, Caring, Courage, and Credibility—we break down what it truly takes to earn trust, lead effectively, and create a culture of protection and performance. Whether you're guiding a crew or shaping safety policy, this episode will challenge you to reflect on your leadership response and deepen your impact.   Read the article: https://incident-prevention.com/blog/the-good-shepherd/   Key Takeaways: The C5 Safety Leadership Model offers five foundational qualities: Competence, Commitment, Caring, Courage, and Credibility. Leadership is not about authority—it's about earned trust and interdependence, just like a shepherd and their flock. Real courage in safety often shows up in small but meaningful moments, like speaking up or making difficult calls. Caring is the heart of effective safety leadership—it fuels the other four C's. Credibility is fragile; it's earned through consistent action, not job titles. Questions and Answers: Q: What does a shepherd-sheep analogy teach us about safety leadership? A: It highlights the interdependent relationship between leaders and teams—just as sheep need guidance and protection, teams rely on leaders who are competent, committed, caring, courageous, and credible.   Q: What is the most important trait in the C5 model? A: While all five are critical, the episode emphasizes that Caring sits at the center—without genuine care, the other traits lose their power.   Q: How can a leader build trust in their team? A: By consistently demonstrating the five C5 traits. Trust is earned through action, particularly in how leaders respond to challenges, errors, and opportunities.   Q: Why is credibility considered the foundation of the C5 model? A: Because without credibility, leadership influence breaks down. Teams follow leaders they trust, not just those with authority.   Subscribe to Incident Prevention Magazine - https://incident-prevention.com/subscribe-now/ Register for the iP Utility Safety Conference & Expo - https://utilitysafetyconference.com/   #SafetyLeadership #TrustAndSafety #UtilitySafety #C5Model #ServantLeadership #WorkplaceCulture   About the Author: David McPeak, CUSP, CIT, CHST, CSP, CSSM, is the director of professional development for Utility Business Media's Incident Prevention Institute (https://ip-institute.com) and the author of “Frontline Leadership – The Hurdle” and “Frontline Incident Prevention – The Hurdle.” He has extensive experience and expertise in leadership, human performance, safety and operations.

This week Cam offers some insight to new college graduates on some basic workplace skills that will make them effective in their workplace. He's advised his clients for over twenty years on these things, maybe he should have something worthwhile to say. ----- My daughter graduated from college in May. After 20+ years advising companies and 7+ years interviewing workplace leaders on my What's Working with Cam Marston radio show and podcast, I realized I should have some useful advice for her—and others—stepping into the next chapter. This is lesson number one called Wisdom is more important than Smarts. You can follow the upcoming lesson on my Linkedin page. Last week, after giving a speech in Atlanta, a young man approached me with a familiar question: “How do I deal with my Gen Z employee who's been here a year and now wants a leadership role—or else he's leaving?” I've heard this one for about ten years. First, it was Millennials asking this of Gen X leaders. Now, it's Gen Z asking it of Millennials. So, what's changed? We raised our kids in a culture of constant praise and reward. We applauded nearly everything. They didn't ask for it—we gave it to them, believing it was the right thing to do. But it created expectations: follow the rules, don't mess up, and a reward will come. And while that may work in classrooms and sports, the workplace plays by different rules. Competence may get you in the game, but leadership requires wisdom. Wisdom isn't knowing how to do the job. It's knowing when, where, why, and with whom. It's built over time—by watching people, seeing how decisions ripple through teams, and understanding the bigger picture. Can wisdom be accelerated? Maybe—but only through pain and loss. A job falling apart. A serious illness. Hard-earned experience. And nobody wants that path. Wisdom teaches restraint: What not to say What not to email What not to escalate What attention not to attract Wisdom also teaches self-awareness: What do I do well? What energizes me? Where am I weak? What kind of feedback helps me improve? Even the smartest new hire with the highest GPA won't have those answers yet. Because wisdom requires time. There is no shortcut. No cheat code. In fact, the moment someone says, “I've been here a year; I'm ready to lead,” they reveal the very lack of wisdom that disqualifies them. So, for my daughter—and others in her shoes—here's what I'd say: 1. Focus on what you're learning. Beyond task lists, study people and power dynamics. What makes leaders effective and likable? Who persuades without authority—and how? Who's trusted? Who's not? Why? What subtle behaviors win or lose influence? 2. Build relationships. Meet people inside and outside your org. Listen deeply. Ask “why” a lot. And speak less—questions build more respect than fast answers. And finally: stop counting the days. Keep your head up. Watch closely. Learn quickly. Adjust often. Wisdom sneaks in when you least expect it—and that's what turns a worker into a leader. I'm Cam Marston an I'm just trying to keep it real.

Julie (SP/SO 1w2 126) says being an Enneagram One is like trying to control the lightning bolt you're riding. We talk about how her pursuit of competence — in painting, music, and even dog training — brought early success but gradually drained the joy from each pursuit. She shares what it's like to live in a body wired for precision and pressure, and how that rigidity eventually led to serious health issues after she threw herself into an activist cause. We explore how she navigates moral complexity not through rules, but through a somatic “yes,” and how her 2-fix allows her to “see people's souls.” Throughout the conversation, she highlights something rarely said about Ones: their sharp, absurd sense of humor that helps her stay connected to lightness and levity.

The electric revolution isn't coming—it's already arrived at your recycling yard. In this eye-opening conversation, Greg Aguilera of International Automotive Consulting shares crucial insights on safely handling high-voltage vehicles that every recycler needs to hear.As one of North America's first certified high-voltage technicians, Greg brings a wealth of experience from his journey that took him from the UK to China and finally to Toronto. He reveals a troubling pattern in the industry: recyclers either leave EVs untouched out of fear or handle them with dangerous complacency. Both approaches cost yards money and create safety risks.Greg challenges common misconceptions, pointing out that the term "EV" encompasses not just Teslas but any high-voltage vehicle—including that Prius sitting in your yard right now. "A Prius is just as dangerous as a Tesla," he emphasizes, predicting that within 2-3 years, recyclers will be purchasing more high-voltage vehicles than traditional ones.What sets his training apart is its focus on the complete recycling process. Unlike generic EV courses, Greg's program addresses recycler-specific challenges: receiving vehicles, yard storage, proper dismantling, component testing, and safe shipping. The hands-on approach ensures workers demonstrate actual competency with the tools they'll use daily.Greg also shares fascinating insights into emerging battery technologies that will transform the industry, including sodium-ion batteries that perform excellently in extreme cold and new energy-dense cells that could extend ranges from 350 to over 2,000 miles with the same size battery.Whether you're already handling EVs or wondering how to prepare your yard, this conversation provides practical guidance for staying safe, reducing component returns, and positioning your business for the electrified future.

The answer lies not in their fitness knowledge but in their approach to sales. This eye-opening episode dismantles the myth that great trainers don't need to be salespeople and reveals why embracing your role in sales is essential for career longevity.Through engaging stories and practical examples, we explore the Four C's framework that transforms awkward sales conversations into authentic value propositions: Competence in your craft, Confidence in your delivery, Control of the consultation, and consistent Contact with prospects. You'll witness firsthand how these principles apply through real-world scenarios, from signing new clients to handling common objections like "it's too expensive" or "I need to talk to my partner."The most powerful revelation comes in understanding the core emotional motivations behind every fitness goal. Beyond surface-level desires to lose weight or gain strength, clients ultimately want to look better naked, perform better physically, or live without pain. By connecting your services directly to these fundamental needs, you'll create irresistible value that clients can't find elsewhere.Whether you're struggling with sales conversations or simply want to elevate your client acquisition strategy, this episode provides actionable techniques to shift from transactional thinking to relationship building.

The Hoover Institution Center for Revitalizing American Institutions webinar series features speakers who are developing innovative ideas, conducting groundbreaking research, and taking important actions to improve trust and efficacy in American institutions. Speaker expertise and topics span governmental institutions, civic organizations and practice, and the role of public opinion and culture in shaping our democracy. The webinar series builds awareness about how we can individually and collectively revitalize American institutions to ensure our country's democracy delivers on its promise. The seventh session discussed Building Strategic Competence: An Urgent Priority for Government and the Academy with H.R. McMaster and Stephen Kotkin on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, from 10:00 - 11:00 am PT. We might define strategic competence as the ability to integrate all elements of national power and efforts of like-minded partners to advance US interests. The nation needs leaders who can think in real time and understand what it takes to implement ideas and strategies on the ground. The academy has an important role in educating leaders to compete effectively in war and in competitions short of war. A reinvigoration of history in higher-level education is particularly important, as many courses in diplomatic and military history have been displaced by theory-based courses, which tend to mask the complex causality of events and obscure the cultural, psychological, social, and economic elements that distinguish cases from one another. Some theories risk sapping students of strategic empathy and encourage them to reduce complex problem sets into frameworks that create only the illusion of understanding. A growing interest in applied history in some universities is a promising development.

Episode Summary: In this episode of SoundPractice, host Mike Sacopulos sits down with Mark Katlic, MD, the chair emeritus of surgery for LifeBridge Health System in Baltimore, Maryland. Katlic opens up about his illustrious career, the creation of the Aging Surgeon Program, and the essential topic of maintaining surgical competence as surgeons age. The Aging Surgeon Program: The program addresses the critical issue of age-related competency in the surgical field. It offers a comprehensive and unbiased evaluation that assesses the physical and cognitive functions of surgeons over the age of 70. Aimed to ensure the ongoing safety and proficiency of aging surgeons, it identifies treatable or reversible conditions that, if addressed, could enhance their functional capacity. By fostering a culture of self-regulation within multidisciplinary surgical teams, the program helps maintain public trust in the healthcare system. Key Points: - The necessity of avoiding a mandatory retirement age, as individual capabilities can vary widely. - The role of strict confidentiality protocols in identifying and addressing issues that might affect a surgeon's performance. - Potential solutions that modify work conditions, allowing experienced surgeons to continue contributing without compromising safety or forcing retirement. About Mark Katlic, MD: Katlic pursued education at Washington and Jefferson College, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and Massachusetts General Hospital. His extensive career spans private practice, general and thoracic surgery, and academic positions at Geisinger Health System and LifeBridge Health System.

It's important because details matter.” “You are one connection away from massive success in your life and business.” “Clarity leads to competence. Competence leads to confidence.

If you can figure that out, you will unlock so much revenue and so much potential in your business.” “Allow your customer, who has now become your client, to become one of your greatest fans. And when that person becomes one of your greatest fans, they actually do your selling for you.” “Visibility + Credibility = Profitability.” “We're just focused on shoving more people through the front door, not taking care of the ones that we already have.” “The wealthiest people I've ever known have had the best relationships, and the wealth has nothing to do with money. Nothing.” “Money is a tool to take care of my family and to help other families. That's it. That's all it's good for.” “There's one person in your network right now who has access to everything you need, but you don't know it.” “It will cost you way less money to nurture that relationship than to gain new ones.” The 3 C's and 3 I's Framework for Long-Term Success: Clarity → Competence → Confidence Influence → Impact → Income USEFUL RESOURCES: https://devinsizemore.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/dpsizemore/ https://www.instagram.com/dpsizemore/ https://www.facebook.com/dpsizemore https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWOKSsJYXZUu1iJSNlfZmJA Connection Expansion: You are One Connection Away from Massive Success in Your Life and Business (https://a.co/d/2GdmheB)  CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com    Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen    Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen    X - https://x.com/johnhulen    LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen    YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA    EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/
