What does it really mean to grow as a disciple of Jesus and are we starting in the right place? In this episode, Chris, Jacob, and Jessie Cruickshank unpack the “Five Cs” of discipleship: Christ, Community, Character, Calling, and Competency. Together, they explore why starting with a skills assessment or plugging people into ministry roles based on talent can short-circuit the deeper work of identity formation in Christ.Jessie draws from neuroscience, her experience training church leaders, and even jellyfish biology (yes, really!) to help us reimagine discipleship as a relational, community-driven journey of becoming. Character is shaped in community, calling is discerned in relationship, and competency should be the last step, not the first.ORDER Jessie's newest book, Ordinary Discipleship: How God Wires Us for the Adventure of Transformation → https://a.co/d/51j86DGFor more great stuff, check out: Ordinary Discipleship by Whoology: https://whoology.coFollow us on social media:https://instagram.com/ordinarydiscipleshiphttps://facebook.com/ordinarydiscipleshipFollow Jessie on social media:Instagram: https://instagram.com/yourbrainbyjessFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.s.cruickshank/Twitter: https://twitter.com/yourbrainbyjessJessie Cruickshank is a disciple-maker, wilderness guide, and ordained minister.

Hello everyone, and welcome to another exciting episode of VR in Education, where we explore how virtual reality is transforming teaching and learning around the world. In today's episode, we're honoured to welcome Dr. Kim Abel, Head of School at Optima Academy Online—one of the leading institutions pioneering fully immersive education. We'll be diving into what it takes to teach effectively in a virtual world, exploring how teacher competencies shift when the classroom is no longer bound by four walls. From managing student engagement and designing immersive lessons to training educators, Kim brings a wealth of insight into the evolving role of the virtual educator.

With technical education under pressure to deliver skilled talent faster, Lakeshore College is flipping the model—measuring learning by competency, meeting students where they are (even in high school), and using grants + national advocacy to scale the impact.In this episode of The TechEd Podcast, host Matt Kirchner talks with Dr. Paul Carlsen, President of Lakeshore College, about the different methods to rapidly upskill a technical workforce. Like Lakeshore's competency-based education (CBE) approach, which has now been adopted by half the college's programs and earned national attention and a White House conversation on scaling CBE.In addition to CBE, we discuss Rocket Academy's early manufacturing pathway for high school students, why industry certifications (SACA) matter (because employers say they matter), and how the college has leveraged $32M+ in competitive grants to fund innovation. Carlsen also explains his work on the AACC Board—including the coming impact of Workforce Pell on short-term training.Listen to learn:Why competency-based education is reshaping how we recognize skillsHow high schoolers are earning real college credentials before graduationWhat makes an industry certification valuable—according to employersThe mindset shift that helped Lakeshore win $32M+ in competitive grantsHow new federal policies could redefine workforce training programs3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Competency-based education measures student success by skill mastery, not seat time. Lakeshore's shift to CBE began with an employer who couldn't wait 16 weeks for students to complete a course. Today, students demonstrate mastery through real-world assessments, faculty build flexible learning pathways, and program delivery adapts to the individual needs of working adults, veterans, and learners balancing multiple responsibilities.2. Through innovative partnerships, high school students are graduating with a college degree and workforce-ready credentials. Rocket Academy gives high school students access to a full integrated manufacturing pathway, often leading to a technical diploma before they even receive their high school diploma. The curriculum is designed to fit directly into the school day, removing scheduling barriers and building true college transcripts—not just college “experience.”3. Grant funding follows big ideas and execution capacity. Lakeshore has secured over $32 million in competitive grants, including major awards from the National Science Foundation. Success comes from proposing bold, high-impact projects with measurable outcomes, and from having the internal systems and cross-functional teams in place to deliver those outcomes on time and at scale.Resources in this Episode:To learn more about Lakeshore College, visit: lakeshore.eduConnect with Paul Carlsen on LinkedInOther resources:Rocket AcademyWhat is competency-based education (We want to hear from you!

I'll never forget Bruce's story about his car—check engine light on, a mechanic insisted it needed a $1,500 catalytic converter. Bruce knew better and fixed it by simply tightening the gas cap. That story isn't just about auto repair; it perfectly illustrates why questions a good financial advisor should ask matter. Without probing, you might be sold something you don't need. Competency—not just good intentions—matters. https://www.youtube.com/live/oyEbgdU1MGI It's not about distrust—it's about asking the right questions so you're not blindly following advice. And that principle applies fully when choosing a financial advisor, especially when your spouse might need to take over the reins someday. Why “Questions a Good Financial Advisor Should Ask” Are Essential1. The Big Picture: Comprehensive Financial Planning2. Spouse Financial Preparedness: Including Both of You3. Risk and Protection: Insurance, Deductibles, and Peace of Mind4. Tax Strategy and Social Security Planning5. Legacy Planning: Aligning Values and Wealth Transfer6. Financial Alignment Between SpousesWhy You Need These QuestionsReady to Empower Yourself With Questions a Good Financial Advisor Should Ask?Book A Strategy Call Why “Questions a Good Financial Advisor Should Ask” Are Essential Bruce makes a powerful point: finance isn't limited to investment products. Just like a mechanic or doctor examines the whole system, a skilled advisor should ask questions that uncover your entire financial ecosystem. Without comprehensive inquiry, blind spots linger—insurance gaps, overlooked risks, or hidden fees can derail your legacy. Are you unknowingly trusting a financial advisor without knowing enough about your overall financial picture? In today's complex financial world—from taxes and Social Security to estate planning, insurance, and cash flow—a narrow focus on one product is risky.Questions a good financial advisor should ask aren't optional—they're essential. They give you clarity, align planning with your goals, and ensure your spouse is equipped to manage your shared financial future. 1. The Big Picture: Comprehensive Financial Planning Bruce sums it up: “You cannot make financial decisions in a vacuum.” Advisors who focus only on investments or insurance miss how those decisions affect cash flow, taxes, estate planning, and more. Ask: What are your current net worth and cash flow statements? How do your investments, insurance, and debts interrelate? Why it matters:Like a doctor who reviews your medical history before prescribing treatment, a competent advisor will want to see your full financial picture before making recommendations. 2. Spouse Financial Preparedness: Including Both of You Too often, one spouse is left out of discussions and can feel lost if the other dies.Key questions include: Who are your trusted advisors (financial, legal, tax)? Does your spouse know how to access online accounts, passwords, and digital assets? What's your “Alternative Income Plan” for the surviving spouse? How comfortable is your spouse with the household financial framework? Bruce and Rachel discuss this as part of the LIFE framework: Liquid assets—money accessible within 15 minutes Income plan—monthly income goals Flexible investments—capital that can be reallocated Estate plan—how wealth transfers to future generations Both spouses should discuss and agree on how these pieces look today and tomorrow. 3. Risk and Protection: Insurance, Deductibles, and Peace of Mind Bruce shared his own experience with PNC: they asked about deductible choices and emotional tolerance for risk during the house fire recovery process.Essential questions a good financial advisor should ask include: What insurance do you have—life, disability, health, auto, home? Are deductibles appropriate to your cash reserves and risk tolerance? Are beneficiary designations updated and aligned with estate go...

In this episode of CRO Spotlight, host Warren Zenna sits down with Lindsay Guzowski, CEO at The Crucible, to explore the power of targeted competency assessments for chief revenue officers. They trace the origins of a bespoke CRO test built for private equity–backed companies, showing how tailored assessments can pinpoint the strengths and gaps that drive high-impact revenue leadership.Many off-the-shelf tests fall short when evaluating executive readiness. Lindsay and Warren unpack pitfalls such as misaligned reference sets, cultural mismatches, and predictable question phrasing that candidates can game. They explain why tracking correlation coefficients and grounding assessments in rigorous validity studies is key to ensuring predictive accuracy.Beyond individual metrics, they highlight the strategic value of team assessments for mapping leadership dynamics. Lindsay describes measuring urgency, resilience, pattern recognition and adaptability against a frozen reference cohort. She shows how private equity firms can configure custom CRO profiles and use nuanced data to optimize hiring, onboarding and development roadmaps.In real-world case studies, they reveal how Crucible insights steer tough hiring choices and fuel candid candidate conversations. By also testing for “contaminants” like fragility or arrogance under pressure, organizations can align roles to specific growth stages. This episode delivers actionable guidance for current and aspiring CROs—and for CEOs seeking to elevate their revenue leadership team.

In this captivating episode of Shark Theory, host Baylor Barbee shares a delightful anecdote from his recent visit to Ham Orchard in Terrell, Texas—a renowned peach orchard famous for its vast variety and unique peach-inspired products. Using this experience as a metaphor, Baylor delves into the importance of mastering a core competency before expanding into various derivatives, drawing parallels with his journey in public speaking. The episode emphasizes how businesses and individuals can thrive by focusing on their strengths and fostering a peaceful and welcoming environment. Ham Orchard, a family-operated business since 1979, exemplifies the power of specialization and community atmosphere. Throughout the episode, Baylor details his surprise and admiration for the orchard's extensive selection of peach products, demonstrating how honing one core skill can lead to success in multiple areas. The discussion is rich with insights on personal growth, illustrating the significance of finding peace and projecting positive energy in personal and professional interactions. This theme serves as a central pillar for the episode, encouraging listeners to cultivate a sense of calm to enhance their magnetism and appeal. Key Takeaways: Mastering one core skill allows you to expand successfully into related areas. Creating a peaceful environment can attract and retain people both personally and professionally. Your presence and energy can have a significant impact on your success. Businesses that remain true to their values, like Ham Orchard's practice of closing on Sundays, can foster a positive community atmosphere. Seasons change in life and business; patience and persistence are key. Notable Quotes: "If you're great at something, you can always expand on it." "Success and growth come with mastering one element." "Being a Peace creator is arguably the most magnetic skill that you can have." "If you're the person that brings peace to a situation, people will want to be around you." "There's always seasons in life and if you're in a down season right now, just realize your season is coming."

Send us a textLinked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmarn/Readiness quiz: https://emergency.scoreapp.com/A staggering statistic opens this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Richard Marn: one person per day dies in the United States due to medical emergencies that begin in dental offices. As a board-certified anesthesiologist with decades of experience, Dr. Marn reveals the critical safety gaps in dental practices and how his journey from academic medicine to founding Blue Pacific Medical Simulation led him to address this overlooked public health issue.Dr. Marn introduces us to the fascinating "beehive versus lung" concept – explaining how hospital teams function collaboratively like beehives during emergencies, while dental practices often rely on the dentist alone (the "lung") to handle everything. This fundamental difference in approach creates dangerous vulnerabilities when seconds matter most.The heart of the episode explores Dr. Marn's innovative Four Pillars of Sedation Emergency Readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit. Beyond just having the right equipment or knowing CPR, these pillars address psychological safety, team dynamics, and creating systems where everyone knows their role in a crisis. Through compelling examples and practical insights, Dr. Marn demonstrates how dental practices can move from simply checking regulatory boxes to building genuinely effective emergency response capabilities.Perhaps most valuable are the actionable steps dental teams can implement immediately – from five-minute huddles that create psychological safety to using Dr. Marn's free online assessment tool (emergencyscorapp.com) to identify specific practice vulnerabilities. His approach acknowledges the realities of busy dental practices while providing a clear framework for meaningful safety improvements.Whether you're a dental professional looking to enhance your practice's safety protocols or simply someone curious about what happens when things go wrong in healthcare settings, this episode offers profound insights into saving lives when every second counts.

TITUS - Character, Competency, Calling - Part 5 by Hope Church, Innerkip

Send us a MessageIn this episode of Culture Change, Sue Tetzlaff emphasizes that efforts to elevate both competency and consistency are crucial for effective culture change and improvement. Competency relates to the quality and standards of practice, while consistency pertains to the frequency and application of those practices. The conversation explores how there are differences in how improvement teams and/or leaders approach increasing competency versus how they approach gaining more consistency. Ultimately, by focusing on both competency and consistency, an organization is aiming for a culture of continuous improvements that can be both measured and felt.Culture is how we do things around here which implies both competency and consistency in those “chosen things.”Competency relates to the quality of practice.Consistency is about the frequency of practice.A starting point is defining what it means to be both competent (how) and consistent (how often) in each required practice or standard.Understanding the 'why' behind practices enhances efforts to achieve both competency and consistency.Training, mentoring, and coaching are key to elevating competency.Accountability tactics are key to gaining and maintaining consistency.The long game in culture change requires sustained efforts focused on both competency and consistency of “how we do things around here.”Need help improving the culture, performance, and results of your healthcare organization?

This podcast was created using NotebookLM.This podcast introduces Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) as a groundbreaking framework for assessing resident competency in medical education, specifically within an Orofacial Pain (OFP) hybrid-online residency program. It highlights a shift from traditional time-based training to competency-based medical education (CBME), where EPAs serve as practical, measurable units of professional activity that ensure residents gain the necessary skills for unsupervised practice. 

A core tenet of the U.S. legal system is that an accused person must be competent to stand trial, which means a defendant can understand the charges against them and assist their lawyer in preparing a defense. In practice, defendants who need to be evaluated for competency often spend long periods in confinement because of a shortage of behavioral health services. When they are finally released, it's usually without ongoing care. On this episode, we spoke with three people who are involved in efforts to reform the process used to determine a defendant's mental competency: Indiana Supreme Court Chief Justice Loretta Rush and two Colorado legislators, Senator Judy Amabile, a Democrat, and Senator Byron Pelton, a Republican.Chief Justice Rush explained the dimensions of the problem and discussed how a national task force on the issue developed. Policy recommendations. Senator Amabile, who has sponsored legislation on the issue talked about how Colorado ended up with a significant backlog of cases. Senator Pelton explained some of the unique challenges people in rural America face when dealing with behavioral health issues. Resources“Legislative Primer Series on Front-End Justice: Competency to Stand Trial,” NCSL“Juvenile Justice: States with Juvenile Competency Laws,” NCSL

L&D has long been focused on behaviour change—but what if that’s the wrong goal? In this episode, Carl Binder challenges conventional wisdom and makes the case for shifting our focus from behaviours to work outputs—the measurable accomplishments that drive business results. Carl explains why this approach is more effective, how L&D teams can correctly identify and measure accomplishments, and what it takes to implement this thinking at scale. He also shares practical strategies for redesigning onboarding, leveraging non-training interventions, and aligning managers to focus on performance outcomes rather than just competency models. For L&D professionals looking to elevate their impact, this conversation offers a roadmap to making learning more business-critical, measurable, and effective. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS When you focus on results, L&D delivers. There is no incompatibility with focusing on work outputs and changing behaviours, one leads to the other. Competency models are too subjective. The relationship between organizational results, outputs and behaviour is dynamic. When managers focus on what needs to be produced, providing feedback to change behaviours is easier. Each individual should have a performance map. Ask yourself if this training were successful what is it that I expect the participants to be able to produce? Stop asking what skills they will learn. This simple change in language is powerful. Fully map your processes. Use the Six Boxes® model. BEST MOMENTS “Figure out the purpose before you define the behaviour.” “Don´t just spray and pray.” “Behaviour might change but accomplishments are typically more stable.” “There is a “the emperor has no clothes” problem here.” Carl Binder Bio Carl Binder is a leading expert in performance improvement and the founder of The Performance Thinking Network. With a background in behavioural psychology and decades of experience in organisational learning, he has helped businesses worldwide shift their focus from behaviour change to measurable work accomplishments. Originally a student of B.F. Skinner, Carl has applied behavioural science to real-world business challenges, developing practical frameworks for performance mapping, onboarding, and enterprise-wide capability building.

Send us a MessageIn this episode of Culture Change RX, Sue Tetzlaff explores the long-term nature of culture change within organizations, particularly in healthcare. Using analogies of soup and dye in water, she goes on to emphasize the importance of commitment, competency, and consistency in fostering a positive culture. Tetzlaff outlines four key elements necessary for effective culture change and warns against the pitfalls of short-term initiatives and always-changing directions that fail to create the desired positive and lasting impacts.A vibrant culture is distinctly different from a lukewarm one.Organizations often switch strategies too frequently, resulting in “starting over” again and again.Long-term commitment yields lasting culture change.The cumulative impact of every individual's contribution, competency, consistency, and long term commitment create the culture.Need help improving the culture, performance, and results of your healthcare organization?

If you run a team, a company or another organization, Culture above all else Drives your Success.  And you have to Truly KNOW your people to build and sustain a winning culture.   Highlights Empower your subordinates (employees; teammates) so they take the action you'd take, not ask ‘what should I do?' Breed Readiness and Competency; the process I used and share here is: Study – Discuss – Role Play – Simulate – Perform – Learn from it Checking the organization's Temperature often; have TWO independent ways to know what your people are thinking and what's going on. Build a Clear, Unbreakable Culture so your team clearly knows what the company and you stand for and every action supports this culture especially when you're not around.   Links and Resources from this Episode Connect with Gary Pinkerton https://www.paradigmlife.net/  gpinkerton@paradigmlife.net https://garypinkerton.com/  https://clientportal.paradigmlife.net/WealthView360    Review, Subscribe and Share If you like what you hear please leave a review by clicking here   Make sure you're subscribed to the podcast so you get the latest episodes.

In this exclusive episode of The Voice of Retail podcast, host Michael LeBlanc interviews Karl Haller, Partner at IBM Consulting and leader of their retail and consumer products center of competency, ahead of his highly anticipated keynote presentation at Retail Council of Canada's STORE2025 conference on June 3rd.With nearly 30 years of retail experience at brands including Brooks Brothers, Tommy Hilfiger, and Karl Lagerfeld, Haller brings unique insights at the intersection of retail business and technology to one of Canada's premier retail events.Haller, who will take the main stage following fellow keynote speaker Ira Kalish, positions AI as "the biggest transformation that any of us have seen in our careers," comparing its significance to the advent of computing in the 1970s. While acknowledging the hype surrounding AI, he maintains that we're in the early stages of a fundamental shift in how retail operates—a message he'll expand upon at the STORE2025 conference.When discussing strategy during uncertain times, Haller advises retailers to focus on action rather than extensive planning: "If you've got a million dollars to spend, spend a million dollars on 100 MVPs. Don't spend a million dollars on an AI strategy project because it's going to be out of date by the time you've done it." He recommends scenario planning with clear indicators that can guide decision-making in unpredictable environments.Looking at retail formats, Haller notes that success isn't determined by format alone but by how retailers innovate within their sector. He highlights Walmart's nimble approach to technology implementation, PepsiCo's management of their extensive logistics network, and innovative approaches from companies like Unilever and Kroger.The conversation culminates with Haller identifying four under-appreciated retail technology trends:Expanding AI beyond words, pictures, and code to work with numerical data like SKU forecasting, potentially reducing forecast error rates to low single digitsIntegrating AI with other technologies like computer vision, IoT devices, robotics, biometrics, electronic shelf labels, and retail mediaDeveloping an "operating system for AI" to manage the projected billion new applications by 2028Most critically, bringing people along on the technology journey through comprehensive training and continuous learningAttendees of STORE2025 can expect Haller to dive deeper into these insights during his keynote presentation, providing retail leaders with actionable strategies for navigating technological transformation while balancing innovation with practical implementatio Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career. Michael has delivered keynotes, hosted fire-side discussions and participated worldwide in thought leadership panels, most recently on the main stage in Toronto at Retail Council of Canada's Retail Marketing conference with leaders from Walmart & Google. He brings 25+ years of brand/retail/marketing & eCommerce leadership experience with Levi's, Black & Decker, Hudson's Bay, CanWest Media, Pandora Jewellery, The Shopping Channel and Retail Council of Canada to his advisory, speaking and media practice.Michael produces and hosts a network of leading retail trade podcasts, including the award-winning No.1 independent retail industry podcast in America, Remarkable Retail with his partner, Dallas-based best-selling author Steve Dennis; Canada's top retail industry podcast The Voice of Retail and Canada's top food industry and one of the top Canadian-produced management independent podcasts in the country, The Food Professor with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois from Dalhousie University in Halifax.Rethink Retail has recognized Michael as one of the top global retail experts for the fifth year in a row, the National Retail Federation has designated Michael as on their Top Retail Voices for 2025, Thinkers 360 has named him on of the Top 50 global thought leaders in retail, RTIH has named him a top 100 global though leader in retail technology and Coresight Research has named Michael a Retail AI Influencer.

In this no-fluff, straight-talk video, I break down what I consider the dumbest way to grow a wholesaling business—and what to do instead.After 12+ years in real estate and marketing, I've made all the mistakes so you don't have to. From cold calling to direct mail, RVMs to SMS blasts—I've tried it all. The truth? It's not about the strategy, it's about your execution, focus, and consistency.❌ Spreading yourself too thin across multiple markets and lists?❌ Chasing trendy marketing tactics instead of mastering one channel?❌ Getting leads but struggling to close them?It's time to simplify, focus, and dominate ONE marketing strategy. Whether it's cold calling, foreclosures, or absentee owners—simplicity scales, complexity fails.

We talk a lot about differentiating instruction, measuring growth, and preparing students for the real world, but how do you actually do that in a system still driven by grades? Maybe you need a new model altogether. In this episode, we're exploring an approach to school called competency-based learning. I'm joined by three educators — Susie Bell, Heather Messer, and Beth Blankenship — who show us what this model actually looks like in classrooms. They share real teaching examples, how they assess growth over time, and how the Mastery Transcript Consortium supports this work. Thanks to Zearn and EVERFI for sponsoring this episode.

If you've ever thought, “I know what to do—why am I not doing it?”, this episode is for you.In this Think Thursday edition of the Alcohol Minimalist podcast, Molly breaks down the Hierarchy of Competency, a science-backed framework that explains why sustainable behavior change can feel frustrating—and why that doesn't mean you're doing it wrong. From the origins of the model in the 1970s to how neuroscience confirms its relevance today, you'll discover a practical roadmap for moving from struggle to sustainability.To bring this to life, we follow the fictional story of Mary, a woman who wants to build an exercise habit after years of being sedentary. As Mary progresses through the four stages—from Unconscious Incompetence to Unconscious Competence—you'll see how this framework applies to any change you're working on, including drinking less, improving your mindset, or adding healthier habits to your routine.You'll walk away understanding:The 4 stages of the Hierarchy of Competency and why each one mattersWhat neuroscience tells us about habit formation and identity changeHow to identify which stage you're in—and how to move forwardWhy struggle is not failure—it's a necessary step on the path to peaceIf you're trying to change your relationship with alcohol, shift your mindset, or add a positive habit to your life, this episode will help you stop shaming yourself and start supporting yourself like a learner—not a perfectionist.What You'll Learn:Why “I know better, but I'm not doing better” is not a personal flawHow the Hierarchy of Competency explains the emotional rollercoaster of changeWhat behavior change research and neuroscience (including BJ Fogg and Lally et al., 2010) reveal about how long it really takes to form habits5 clear action steps you can take this week to keep moving forwardResources + Mentions:The Hierarchy of Competency model (originally attributed to Noel Burch, Gordon Training International)Research on habit formation by Dr. Phillippa Lally, University College LondonConcepts inspired by BJ Fogg's behavior model and the Stages of Change frameworkJoin the free Facebook group: Alcohol Minimalists: Change Your Drinking HabitsConnect with Molly:Email: molly@mollywatts.comWebsite: www.mollywatts.comReady to Go Deeper?Explore the Making Peace with Alcohol coaching program—designed to help you move from Conscious Incompetence to lasting transformation. ★ Support this podcast ★
