In this episode of Paradigm Shifting Books, hosts Stephen and Britain Covey are joined by leadership expert Liz Wiseman, author of ‘Multipliers'. Together, they dive into the powerful principles that distinguish "multipliers", leaders who amplify the intelligence and abilities of others, from "diminishers," who, despite good intentions, unknowingly hold people back. Liz shares her research and experiences, revealing how leadership can either bring out brilliance or unintentionally stifle growth. This conversation highlights how these concepts can apply not only in the workplace but also in teams, families, and everyday life.Stephen and Britain reflect on how these insights have shaped their own approaches to leadership. They discuss the importance of seeing potential in others and creating environments where people feel empowered to contribute their best. Stephen points out that it's not about being the smartest leader, but about finding ways to help others shine, while Britain shares how creating space for both safety and challenge is key to unlocking peak performance. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to foster growth, collaboration, and leadership in all areas of life.What We Discuss[00:00] Introduction[01:23] The Power of Contributorship[04:10] Multipliers vs. Diminishers[13:35] Safety and Stretch: The Core of Leadership[20:10] The Importance of Viewing Genius in Others[22:36] Contribution over CompetitionNotable Quotes[06:34] "Sometimes really, really smart people don't make the best managers." – Liz Wiseman[24:59] "People want to come to work every day wanting to contribute everything that they have." – Liz Wiseman[15:37] "What these leaders do is they create an environment where people feel safe, but then they create stretch." – Liz Wiseman[24:20] "Multipliers believe people are smart, and there is a way they are smart.

A fascinating story of how three musicians, who escaped the Nazis, inspired Iceland's modern classical music. In Iceland in the 1930s, classical music was only beginning to be seriously practiced, at the same time when musicians of Jewish heritage were fleeing Nazi Germany and Austria. Despite the country's strict immigration policy, three outstanding young musicians were allowed to settle there: Robert Abraham, Heinz Edelstein, and Victor Urbancic. Their influence on Iceland's music scene as conductors, instrumentalists, teachers, and scholars proved invaluable. In Music at World's End: Three Exiled Musicians from Nazi Germany and Austria and Their Contribution to Music in Iceland (SUNY Press, 2025) the first in-depth study of the lives and careers of these three musicians, musicologist Árni Ingólfsson examines their formative years in Germany and Austria, their dramatic escapes from the Nazi regime, and their triumphs and frustrating setbacks in their new homeland, a country in which Jews were virtually unknown. This fascinating case study is a valuable addition to studies of musical exile during World War II and beyond. Learn more about your ad choices.

There's a module for that Module name/project name: Config Notify Brief history How old: created in Feb 2020 by Fran Garcia-Linares (fjgarlin), one of today's guests Versions available: 8.x-1.11, which supports Drupal 8.8 and newer Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Number of open issues: 2 open issues, neither of which are bugs Usage stats: 194 sites Module features and usage Just like it sounds, this module lets you trigger notifications when the configuration deviates from the config management code in production. You can choose for the notifications to be sent immediately, or via cron, with an option for a daily digest. The notifications can be sent by email, or via Slack, using the slack module (if enabled). This should be an easy-to-implement solution if you support a site where users may be updating the site configuration in production.

Send comments and feedbackSomatic genetic epilepsies arise from mutations that occur early in fetal development. They are usually only detectable by genetic sequencing of tissue. For these epilepsies, the timing of the mutation is key: For example, research has shown that focal cortical dysplasia type IIB and hemimegaloencephaly are genetically the same disease, but arise from somatic mutations at different developmental time points. This relatively new area of research is discussed by Dr. Alina Ivaniuk and Dr. Christian Bosselmann.Resources:Analysis of 1,386 epileptogenic brain lesions reveals association with DYRK1A and EGFR (Nature Communications 2024 - C.

A “stagnant Christian” should be an oxymoron. God's plan for His children is that they be edified, constantly moving forward in faith. But the Christian can't become spiritually mature alone... Notes: Focus verse - Ephesians 4 We don’t stand in our own strength, but we are built up together on the foundation of Christ.

A “stagnant Christian” should be an oxymoron. God's plan for His children is that they be edified, constantly moving forward in faith. But the Christian can't become spiritually mature alone...

Jesus responds to an earnest question from a scribe about the greatest commandment. With 613 commandments to choose from, Jesus teaches that the important commandment is to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and loving our neighbors as ourselves. Mark 12:28 A scribe asks Jesus which commandment is the greatest (foremost) Mark 12:29 – 31 Jesus answers the question Mark 12:32 & 33 The scribe agrees Mark 12:34 Jesus tells the scribe he is not far from the kingdom of God – the questions stopped Mark 12:35 – 37 Jesus asks “how can the Christ be the son of David, when David calls him “My Lord” Mark 12:38 – 40 Jesus warns of the hypocrisy of the religious leaders Mark 12:41 – 44 Jesus says a widow contributed a cent and He says that contribution was greater than the rest combined

Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) can be both a powerful ally and a cautionary tale for founders and financial VCs alike. At the EUVC Summit, Nicholas Sauvage of TDK Ventures took the stage to break down the CVC landscape — past, present, and future — and give practical advice for founders considering CVCs on their cap tables.Nicholas challenged the audience with a question: who's had a good experience with a CVC? Hands shot up and fewer hands went up for “bad experiences.” This, he noted, shows we're at a new stage for corporate venture.He outlined the three eras of CVC:CVC 1.0: The early days, marked by balance-sheet-driven investments and corporate sponsorships. These often came with odd term sheets and slower processes, but could unlock synergies.CVC 2.0: Skipped over, just like today's pre-seed to Series A jumps.CVC 3.0: The modern era: financially disciplined, strategically aligned, fast-moving, and structured like financial VCs without sacrificing strategic purpose.Importantly, Nicholas debunked the idea that financial and strategic returns are a trade-off - a "false premise," as he called it. The best CVCs aim for both: venture-type returns and deep strategic synergies.Nicholas shared the characteristics of high-performing CVCs:Fast decision-making (some in under 2 weeks!)Clear investment thesesSlim, empowered ICs (not consensus-based groups of 12)Strategic clarity and preparednessA giver mindset — value-add first, not value-extractHe also offered advice for traditional VCs:“Be thoughtful about when a CVC joins your cap table. Some are great at de-risking science, others support go-to-market — it's all about matching their superpower to your founder's needs.”TDK Ventures uses a strict three-pillar framework:Contribution to societyVenture-type returnsStrategic synergy (giver-focused)If an opportunity scores less than 9/10 on any one of the three, they won't invest. Why? Because climate tech and deeptech take time and patience, and TDK is playing a long game to back meaningful technologies — like Type One energy and nuclear fusion — that can shape humanity's future.Before taking CVC money, ask the hard questions:What's their why?What value do they add?Are they ready to support at the right stage of your journey?“Without exits, we don't have a VC ecosystem,” Nicholas reminded the room — so make sure you're partnering with CVCs who can help drive toward them.CVCs: The Good, the Bad, and the MisunderstoodWhat Makes a Great CVC?TDK Ventures' Framework: Triple MandateAdvice to Founders & VCs

When tragedy strikes a nation, the role of a leader comes into sharp focus. People don't just look for direction. They look for clarity, values, and a sense of contribution.Clarity matters because uncertainty breeds fear. Leaders must speak truthfully about what is known, what is not, and what matters most in the moment.Values matter because culture is tested in crisis. If you've said compassion, respect, or dignity are central, this is the time to show them in action.Contribution matters because people want to help. Effective leaders channel grief and anxiety into meaningful action, whether that means serving the community, supporting one another, or simply keeping the mission moving with care.Tragedy will come. The question for every leader is: Will you be ready to provide clarity, model values, and offer contribution when your people need it most?Lead with purpose.

What if your work isn't just a job—but part of God's bigger story for your life?For some, work is a source of stress, struggle, or simply something to endure. But what if we're seeing it all wrong? What if God designed work to be a vital part of how we worship Him and serve others? Dr. Tom Nelson joins us today to talk about that. Dr. Tom Nelson is the President of Made to Flourish and has served as the Senior Pastor of Christ Community Church, a multi-site congregation across Kansas City, for over 30 years. He is also the author of Why Your Work Matters: How God Uses Our Everyday Vocations to Transform Us, Our Neighbors, and the World.False Narratives About WorkCulture tells us many things about work—most of them untrue.“Thank God it's Friday” reflects the belief that work is a curse and that our real lives happen only on weekends.Work as mere productivity reduces our calling to a paycheck or to-do list.Sacred vs. secular divide suggests ministry work matters more than other vocations.However, if we return to Genesis 1 and 2, we find that work is not a curse. Work is God's good design. Whether paid or unpaid, our work is part of how we glorify Him.The Four-Chapter Story of WorkDr. Tom Nelson uses a “four-chapter” framework to show how the Bible shapes a proper view of work:Creation – What Ought to Be. God designed work as a gift and a reflection of His image. Work and worship were never meant to be separate.The Fall – What Is. Sin corrupted work, introducing toil, frustration, and broken relationships.Redemption – What Can Be. Through Christ, our work can be redeemed. Whether changing diapers, leading a company, or volunteering, we bring God's presence into every environment.New Creation – What Will Be. One day, we will experience work in its perfect form—creative, joyful, and without sin—in God's restored Kingdom.One of the most transformative ideas to remember is that all work done for God's glory is sacred. Work is contribution, not just compensation. We carry God's presence with us into our workplaces because the Holy Spirit dwells within us.This perspective breaks down the artificial barrier between “spiritual” and “secular” work. It gives believers a seamless life of worship—Sunday through Monday.Hope for the FutureWe won't spend eternity sitting on clouds. Revelation offers us a glimpse of a garden city where we will worship Jesus and engage in creative, joyful work—free from sin, frustration, and the need for perfect relationships with God and others.If you've believed that your work doesn't matter, be encouraged that you were created with work in mind. God is with you in your work. When you embrace Jesus and become His apprentice, you'll learn to live a seamless life where every task, big or small, can glorify Him.Dr. Tom Nelson's latest book, Why Your Work Matters: How God Uses Our Everyday Vocations to Transform Us, Our Neighbors, and the World, is available wherever books are sold.

On this episode, we're joined by Berklee Welsh and Christina Skonberg from Simple Mills — the number one cracker, cookie, and baking mix brand in the natural channel today. We unpack how Simple Mills is focused on contribution over attribution, working with more than 4,000 farmers on 70,000 acres to build a regenerative supply that doesn't necessarily translate into product-specific claims. We talk about product innovation, how underutilized crops like buckwheat and red beans are making their way into cookies and crackers, and why designing for soil health starts with good product design. You'll hear how their ingredient-specific regen programs started with a few sunflower growers in the Midwest and have now expanded to almonds, cocoa, and coconut sugar — and how those programs are grounded in listening to farmers, not prescribing to them. Berklee and Christina unpack how Simple Mills' regenerative programs drive supply resilience, employee morale, product differentiation, and even ingredient quality — making the case for why Simple Mills invests in this work, even without on-pack claims. This one is packed with quality insights from two top-notch sustainability pros. Episode Highlights:
In this eye-opening episode of The WorkWell Podcast™, Jen Fisher sits down with researcher Tamara Myles, who studied over 2,000 workers across 25 industries and discovered this: your job doesn't actually suck—you just haven't unlocked its potential yet.Forget "follow your passion."

Whether you're flipping burgers or running boardrooms, this conversation will change how you think about Monday mornings forever.Episode Highlights:Debunking meaningful work myths: Why it's less about what you do and more about how you experience what you doThe crucial difference between purpose and meaning: Why mission-driven nonprofits still struggle with burnoutThe Three C's framework: Community, Contribution, and Challenge as the building blocks of meaningful workThe 40-second connection rule: How micro-moments build workplace belongingThe power of recognition: Why one weekly "thank you" cuts burnout and disengagement in halfOn stage, backstage, and after the show: A framework for meaningful appreciationThe goldfish principle: Why humans are "indeterminate growers" shaped by their environmentBurnout vs. bore-out: The surprising ways people disengage from workQuotable Moment:"Meaningful work is less about what you do and more about how you experience what you do—and every job can, and should be meaningful." - Tamara Myles

Hosts: - Dr. Janet Alvarez - General Surgery Resident at New York Medical College/Metropolitan Hospital Center - Dr. Wini Zambare – General Surgery Resident at Weill Cornell Medical Center/New York Presbyterian - Dr. Phil Bauer, Graduating Colorectal Surgical Oncology Fellow at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center - Dr. J. Joshua Smith MD, PhD, Chair, Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery at MD Anderson Cancer Center - Dr. Andrea Cercek - Gastrointestinal Medical Oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center - Dr. Y. Nancy You, MD MHSc - Professor, Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery at MD Anderson Cancer Center Learning objectives: - Describe trends in incidence of colorectal cancer, with emphasis on the rise of EOCRC. - Identify age groups and demographics most affected by EOCRC. - Summarize USPSTF recommendations for colorectal cancer screening. - Distinguish between screening methods (e.g., colonoscopy, FIT-DNA) and their sensitivity. - Understand treatment approaches for colon and rectal cancer (CRC) - Understand the role of mismatch repair (MMR) status in guiding treatment. - Outline the importance of genetic counseling and testing in young patients. - Discuss racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in CRC incidence and outcomes. - Describe the impact of cancer treatment on fertility and sexual health. - Review fertility preservation options. - Identify the value of integrated care teams for young CRC patients.
