Intentional, Compassionate Leaders Create Win/Win Organizations with Guest Dr. Arthie Moore-Robberts

Transformation Talk Radio

Empowering Leaders. Transforming Organizations. Inspiring Change. Visionary leaders who lead by building healthy connections and providing generous compassion,  are highly influential. They inspire individuals and teams, they drive meaningful change, and they break through where complacency otherwise predominates. That's because the mind alone, without input from the heart and soul often leads to burnout, apathy, and fear. Approaching inevitable change in our world engaging the intellect alone can often be cold, unfeeling and even brutal. But when change is based in a systemic consciousness of the whole person and includes empathy, compassion and a commitment to help everyone in a workforce feel connected and significant, they feel seen, safe, and they fully engage. Then people invest themselves in their work, in their teammates, in their leaders and in the success of their organizations.   This is a time when the world is waking up to the importance of moving from Industry 4.0 where we focused on technology-based automation and efficiency, to Industry 5.0 where we focus on human-centric collaboration while using such automation. In Industry 5.0, the emphasis is on sustainability, worker wellbeing, and purpose-driven innovation.   While Industry 4.0 brought us AI, the Internet of all Things, and Robotics, Industry 5.0 builds on this by focusing on how to use technology to complement and support human capabilities, promote ethical integration, and achieve many greater social goals, beyond just productivity.   In order to meet today's complexity, speed of change, diversity, globalization and new technologies, we MUST develop people so they are highly free AND highly responsible. They must be able to lead AND follow as needs dictate no matter their title, gender, tenure or role. They must be capable of heuristic thinking so they can solve challenges never seen before “on the fly” rather than passively waiting for someone to feed them often outdated answers and direction. They are developed to be critical thinkers and to attend to new concepts, terms, and tools aligned with expanding their authenticity and potential.   In order for this kind of person to be trained and supported, leaders must understand how to build trust, create psychologically safe, inclusive and equitable conditions and conversations that align with purpose and values-based ways of running organizations. The priority is people, purpose, and principles before profit to ensure the broadest expression of profit becomes possible.   Questions for today's interview may include:   1. You once wrote that “there is an increased need at the C-Suite level for upgraded leadership skills development, to challenge complacent mindsets and beliefs, and to pour compassion more intentionally into their own personal evolution” Can you tell our audience why and how you see that this increase is needed, what are the complacent mindsets and beliefs and how do you help them pour compassion intentionally into their own personal evolution?   2. You also said, “It makes sense to build skills, embrace DEI knowledge, Allyship, Reasonable Accommodation strategies, and learn how to realign policies with the inclusion of the voices of your HR teams and your people.” Many people do not always think of inclusion as people having a voice and being heard. They think of inclusion as being hired but not having shared recognition and agency. Can you share stories about how you came to this idea of helping people at every level have a voice? Can you also share some stories about what it's been like when you've helped this happen?   3. You integrate African Principles of Leadership into your work. Can you share with our audience what those principles are and how you integrate them into your work?   4. Arthie, I feel such kinship with you because you to believe in challenging the current narratives around Men and Women Empowerment. Like me, you also believe we need men AND women to share expertise, wisdom and knowledge, including conversations around equity. You help this process by using Reverse Mentoring. We use the same. Would you share some of what you've seen happen, shift, and become empowering for men AND women as you introduce, oversee, and support this process?    5. You are a Board Member of SAIMC (the Society for Automation Instrumentation Mechatronics and Computer Engineering) where you have been a frontline champion in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) and clearly a bright intellect in that evolution. Tell our audience why 4IR is not enough and why it's important that the mind is complemented by the energy of the loving heart as promote in 5IR (the 5th Industrial Revolution) and why this is vital for the achievement of our broadest idea of success?   6. You are a specialist in DEIB. Many people know DEI stands for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion but are not familiar with the B which stands for Belonging. This belonging includes fostering a deep sense of connection, psychological safety, and acceptance, ensuring that every employee feels understood, valued, and like an indispensable part of the team. This is central to my work too because when people feel belonging and that they matter and have significance, that is when they move out of what's called “inferiority complex” the limiting and fearful self-beliefs under every struggle within and between people. It's also what's needed for them to feel empowered, lovable, connected and contributing. How has the B – the Belonging component made a powerful life-changing difference in your work, for the people you help, and how do you see its value in making a difference in the world? Can you also share any stories around this?   7. I read that when you were a fresh, enthusiastic but somewhat insecure 18-year-old, you met business owner, author and motivational speaker Jim Rohn and were forever changed when you heard him speak deeply about the love of People First, and about impact and Influence. He spoke about being kind and gracious and being of value and you were so moved that you said it was the seed that set your life and work intention from that day forward. Can you share what that experience was like for you and what you have found to be helpful as you look back on it?   8. Arthie, you and I both teach about Psychological Safety. Not everyone is fully sure what that is and why is it so important for the growth, development and the strategic impact on the well-being of an organization. Can you share what psychological safety is for you and how you help leaders align with creating it? What difference has it made in organizations?   9. You believe in the power of 3 E's Embrace: “your past” Evaluate: “your present” and Evolve: “your future” You wrote a book called the Compassionate Leader of Influence in which you shared about the role of the 3Es and how compassion plays a part. Can you tell our audience more about this and your book - why you wrote it and what you want people to takeaway from reading it?   10. How can people get in touch with you and is there anything you want to share with our audience about your book, your work, or any events you have coming up?   11. As we close this time together, what words of wisdom would like to leave with our audience?

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers transform into someone they admire—one quite literally, the other more figuratively.Part 1: While juggling climate science studies and a budding comedy career, Rollie Williams finds an unexpected niche impersonating his environmental hero, Al Gore.Part 2: Scott Acton longs to follow in Hemingway's footsteps, but when his English teacher squashes his writing dreams, he reluctantly accepts his role as “the computer guy.”Rollie Williams is a Brooklyn-based comedian, video editor, and guy with both student debt and a Climate Science & Policy degree from Columbia University. He is the creator and host of the digital comedy series Climate Town. In the past few years, the channel has amassed 600,000 subscribers, several millions views, and a handful of awards. Rollie is also the co-creator and co-host of podcast The Climate Denier's Playbook. Formerly, Rollie performed a monthly comedy show 'An Inconvenient Talk Show' doing sketches and comedic deep dives by pairing comedians (SNL, The Daily Show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, etc) together with climate scientists (NASA, MIT, Harvard). When he's not doing climate stuff, Rollie plays an unhealthy amount of billiards and recently achieved his dream of commentating for the World Cup of Pool in England. Scott Acton is Professor and Chair of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia. He did his undergraduate studies at Virginia Tech and graduate studies at the University of Texas at Austin. Scott's laboratory is called VIVA – Virginia Image and Video Analysis. They work on image analysis problems from imaging for Alzheimer's disease to analyzing classroom videos for improving elementary math education. Scott also recently worked for the National Science Foundation as a program director for programs in signal processing and artificial intelligence. When he's not doing research at UVA, you will find him in the mountains on his purple mountain bike.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of Beyond the Thesis with Papa PhD, host David Mendes sits down with Dr. Karina do Santos Machado, a trailblazing young scientist from Brazil whose journey exemplifies the power of collaboration and open science in the global South. Karina shares her path from a childhood fascination with computers to becoming a principal investigator leading cutting-edge drug discovery research with global impact, all from her home base in Rio Grande.   Facing the challenges of limited funding, infrastructure hurdles, and fewer resources common to universities in developing countries, Karina highlights how resourcefulness and community spirit have been fundamental to her success. Collaboration is not only a choice but a necessity in the Brazilian scientific landscape. By building networks both within her institution and internationally, Karina has leveraged open science initiatives to propel her team onto the world stage, including successful participation in global drug discovery challenges such as Conscience's CACHE initiative for COVID-19 therapeutics.   As Karina explains, open science has been key in providing access to critical data, software, and partnerships, democratizing opportunities for smaller labs like hers. Her story is a testament to how determined scientists, even from under-resourced environments, can foster innovation and make tangible contributions to global health.   Karina dos Santos Machado holds a degree in Computer Engineering from the Universidade Federal de Rio Grande and a Master's and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Pontifícia Universidade Católica of Rio Grande do Sul. Between 2018 and 2019, she worked as a postdoctoral fellowship in the NANO-D research group at INRIA in Grenoble, France. She is currently a Lecturer at FURG, working in the graduate programs in Health Sciences and Computer Science, where she coordinates the Computational Biology Laboratory. Her research focuses primarily on Bioinformatics and Data Science, including the following topics: Genomics, Machine Learning, Virtual Drug Screening, Molecular Docking, and Molecular Dynamics.   Three Inspiring Take-aways from my conversation with Karina: Collaboration is a Superpower: In environments where resources are scarce, building bridges—within your university and beyond—makes it possible to tackle complex scientific problems. Don't hesitate to ask for help, offer your expertise, and create interdisciplinary teams; together, you go further. Open Science Levels the Field: By embracing open-source tools, sharing data, and participating in global challenges, you can give your work international visibility and validation, regardless of your location or funding status. Open science isn't just a philosophy; it's a passport to global research networks and impact. Your Local Challenges Have Global Resonance: The unique scientific questions you face in your community, like drug resistance in tuberculosis, are shared by the worldwide research community. Your perspective and commitment to real-world problems can drive both local solutions and contribute to advancing science on a global scale.   Karina's journey proves that with innovation, community, and openness, you can thrive and lead in science, no matter where you start.  If you're curious about AI, biosciences, or just want to see how resilient, creative science happens outside the “usual” power centers, this episode is a must-listen.

Simon Sinek says that a lot of organizations can talk about what they do and how they do it. But he says, “Very few organizations know why they do what they do.” And it's the ‘why' that is the most important. In this episode, we're taking this lesson and more from Simon Sinek with the help of our special guest, Guru Sundar.Together, we talk about finding your ‘why', looking for inspiration in unexpected places, and timing your content so it feels fresh. About our guest, Guru SundarGuru Sundar is VP of Marketing at Abridge, a leader in generative AI for healthcare. Guru has been with the company since September 2023. He previously served as VP of Marketing at Looking Glass Factory and Butterfly Network. Guru holds a BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Cornell University and an MSc in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Southern California.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Simon Sinek:Find your ‘why'. Figure out the reason your work is important and use that in your content. Guru says, ”Every company should have a ‘why' that's rooted in a large problem. And it may be broken into a subset of problems that you tackle over time, but like really focus on that ‘why.'”Look for inspiration in unusual places. Inspiration for your content can come from unexpected places. Guru says, ”Drawing inspiration from outside is culturally ingrained in how we do what we do at Abridge, because if you look at who's next to you, you're not going to innovate. But if you look way far out and break down like, ‘Oh, that brand or that person is having similar challenges, but they're making t-shirts, but I can draw some inspiration from them,' or like ‘That person over there is making music, or they're making some form of art that no one's ever seen before.'”Time your delivery so content stays fresh. Finesse is everything when delivering content to your audience. Guru says, ”No one likes fatigue. And so you have to keep fatigue, freshness, innovation in mind as you're generating these pieces of content. You could have like four or five different content streams. And people need to hear things multiple times, but they don't need to hear it seven times in a row. A lot of the content is developing the right things for your audience that are innately interesting. If you just ask someone, ‘Hey, is this interesting? Is this useful?' They say yes. But then serving it at the right frequency, at the right time, in the right form factor and package, is what I think differentiates okay marketers from incredible marketers.”Quotes*”Drawing inspiration from outside is culturally ingrained in how we do what we do at Abridge, because if you look at who's next to you, you're not going to innovate.

And it may be broken into a subset of problems that you tackle over time, but like really focus on that ‘why.'”*”You can break marketing down into two mainstreams. It's like  amazing content that resonates with your audience, you know, your buyer, your end user, and then you have to serve it on all the right channels with the right frequency, usage, et cetera, like cut it up the right way. But content is everything. So it's like, what is it that's going to inspire your buyers? What is it that's going to inspire your end users? And it's keeping it provocative.”*”No one likes fatigue. And so you have to keep fatigue, freshness, innovation in mind as you're generating these pieces of content. You could have like four or five different content streams.

If you don't believe in the content, don't serve the content.  And I think a lot of people in marketing just check the box. ‘We need to do emails. We need to do ads. We need to do a white paper,' but like, why are you doing it? And then assess like, ‘Did this work? Did this not work?' And use that as impetus to drive the next thing. But you have to really believe in your content. And I think a lot of people are very tactical and that's where I think it falls flat.“*”The way we operate at Abridge is like you almost have this mentality that this is the last time you're ever gonna create a piece of content. So make it last, make it meaningful.  At some point, you gotta pull back and appreciate everything you've done. Take stock of it. But in the moment, like, don't look back. Don't look too far forward. Focus on today and crush it. And when you think about content that way, it's like, ‘I'm going to really focus on this piece of content. I don't really care what we've done in the past. I don't care what we're going to do in the future. I want to make this count.'”Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Guru Sundar, VP of Marketing at Abridge[1:53] Guru Sundar's Journey into Marketing[4:31] The Role and Vision at Abridge[7:35] The Importance of Brand and Inspiration[16:37] Simon Sinek's Golden Circle[19:29] Personal Mission and Healthcare Innovation[23:25] The Impact of Transparency in Healthcare[25:20] AI and Deeper Understanding in Healthcare[25:46] The Importance of Patient History[27:53] Marketing and Storytelling in Healthcare[31:41] Challenges in B2B Healthcare Marketing[33:09] Clinician and Patient-Centric Solutions[43:12] The Role of Content in Marketing[50:34] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Guru on LinkedInLearn more about Simon Sinek and “Starting with Why”About Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

It seems that every few months, there's an exciting breakthrough in quantum computing, a kind of computing that takes advantage of quantum physics to perform calculations exponentially faster than our most advanced supercomputers. Last December, Google announced that its quantum computer solved a math problem in five minutes—a problem that would've taken a normal supercomputer longer than the age of the universe to solve. And earlier this month, Microsoft, coming off a quantum advance in the fall, told businesses to get “quantum-ready” for 2025, saying that “we are right on the cusp of seeing quantum computers solve meaningful problems.”So, are we on the cusp? Flora Lichtman is joined by Dr. Shohini Ghose, a quantum physicist and professor at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Canada and CTO of the Quantum Algorithms Institute, for a quantum computing check-in and a look at when this futuristic technology could start to have an impact on our lives.
