What does it really take to build a work culture where employees genuinely belong and perform at their best? The conversation with Megan Carter - Head of People at Blenheim Palace and Pye Homes - clears away the gloss and gets down to the essentials.Even when joining an organisation with positive foundations, it's easy for teams to fall into silos or lose sight of shared purpose. The solution, as Megan points out, lies in clear values and a lived approach to leadership. It's not about a strategy sitting idle, but about the everyday behaviours, especially from leaders, that help people feel heard and valued.A high-performing workforce is sustained by fostering human connections, regular feedback, and authentic listening. I loved hearing about their ‘You said - we did' process, which isn't just an HR tick-box exercise, but an ongoing cycle of feedback and collective action. Their very low staff turnover and positive atmosphere are the results of intentional engagement, employee forums, and a culture where everyone's voice matters.It isn't hierarchical; it's approachable, personal, and rooted in day-to-day interactions - remembering names, checking in with genuine concern, and encouraging emotional intelligence. The three pillars - Grow, Give, and Belong - run through everything they do, helping ensure that everyone's potential is supported, community connections are strong, and each person feels they matter.Too often, people talk about work culture as a set of slogans or initiatives, but as Megan shared, it's the little things - regular check-ins, supporting managers, empowering employees to solve problems together - that add up to a thriving, resilient workforce.If you're a leader or manager, don't shy away from honest feedback, keep role modelling the behaviours you want to see, and remember: sustainable success is always collective. When your people thrive, so does your business.More about Megan:Megan Carter is a People Director dedicated to shaping positive working environments and fostering strong, inclusive cultures that drive innovation and inclusivity.

Traditionally, parenthood has been seen as a career disruption-especially for mothers. But what if becoming a parent could be one of the greatest leadership incubators of all? The Parenthood Advantage: Building Corporate Cultures That Value Working Parents (Dg Press, 2025) challenges the outdated narrative that working parents are a burden to manage and instead shows how they're an untapped asset that forward-thinking companies can't afford to overlook. Drawing on compelling research, candid interviews, and real-world examples, authors Mason Donovan and Mark Kaplan reveal how the skills honed through parenthood-resilience, crisis management, empathy, prioritization, and negotiation-are the very qualities that modern workplaces need. The book offers practical strategies for leaders and organizations to transform parental leave, return-to-work support, and everyday culture into true competitive advantages. Whether you're an HR leader seeking to attract and retain top talent, a manager aiming to better support your team, or a working parent ready to reframe your value at work, The Parenthood Advantage will inspire you to see what's possible when we stop sidelining parents and start recognizing them as a powerful source of growth, innovation, and leadership.

Provincial Metropolis: Intellectuals and the Hinterland in Colonial India (Cambridge UP, 2025) tells the story of Patna, in the north Indian region of Bihar, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A century and more earlier, Patna had been an important and populous city, but it came to be seen by many-and is still  seen today-as merely part of the mofussil, the provincial hinterland. Despite Patna's real decline, it continued to nurture a vibrant intellectual culture that linked it with cities and towns across northern India and beyond. Urdu literary gatherings and other Islamicate traditions inherited from Mughal times helped animate the networks sustaining institutions like scholarly libraries and satirical newspapers. Meanwhile, English-educated lawyers sought to bring new prominence to their city and region by making Patna the capital of a new province. They succeeded, but as Patna's political influence grew, its distinctive character was diminished. Ultimately, Provincial Metropolis shows, Patna's intellectual and cultural life thrived not despite its provinciality but because of it. * David Boyk is an Associate Professor of Instruction in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at Northwestern University, where he teaches courses in Hindi-Urdu language and literature, and on South Asian literature, film, and history more broadly.

James Aladiran joins us to share how to live a life of prayer, purity, and power from his book Life on Fire. (J2650)

A new study just came out that explores the similarity between LLM and human responses across countries, seeking to test whether LLMs are less similar to humans in cultures that are more distant from the United States. The general answer they found was yes, they are less similar. However, as I thought about it, it provoked more questions than answers. I share more here, which I hope sparks some questions for you as well. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Fluent Fiction - Swedish: From Sweden with Thanks: Bridging Cultures in a Dorm Kitchen Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sv/episode/2025-11-17-23-34-02-sv Story Transcript:Sv: När löven började skifta till guld och rött, flyttade Linnea in i sitt nya studenthem i USA.En: When the leaves started turning to gold and red, Linnea moved into her new student dorm in the USA.Sv: För första gången bodde hon långt ifrån sin familj i Sverige, och världen omkring henne var full av nya intryck och dofter.En: For the first time, she lived far from her family in Sweden, and the world around her was full of new sights and smells.Sv: Studentkorridoren var livlig och dekorerad med pumpor och fallna löv.En: The student corridor was lively and decorated with pumpkins and fallen leaves.Sv: Det doftade kanel och äppelcider från köket där studenterna samlades.En: It smelled of cinnamon and apple cider from the kitchen where the students gathered.Sv: Linnea försökte anpassa sig till detta nya liv men kände sig ibland ensam.En: Linnea tried to adjust to this new life but sometimes felt lonely.Sv: Thanksgiving närmade sig, en högtid hon aldrig firat.En: Thanksgiving was approaching, a holiday she had never celebrated.Sv: Hennes rumskamrater Erik och Sofia pratade livligt om förberedelserna, och Linnea kände sig som en främling i sitt eget hem.En: Her roommates Erik and Sofia talked animatedly about the preparations, and Linnea felt like a stranger in her own home.Sv: "Du borde fira med oss," föreslog Erik en kväll när de alla satt i den lilla köket.En: "You should celebrate with us," suggested Erik one evening when they were all sitting in the small kitchen.Sv: "Vi tänker hålla en enkel middag i studentrummet."En: "We're planning to hold a simple dinner in the dorm room."Sv: Linnea tvekar.En: Linnea hesitated.Sv: "Jag vet inte...En: "I don't know...Sv: Det känns konstigt.En: It feels strange.Sv: Jag känner knappt till högtiden."En: I barely know the holiday."Sv: "Men det vore roligt att ha dig med," insisterade Sofia, med ett varmt leende.En: "But it would be fun to have you join us," insisted Sofia, with a warm smile.Sv: "Du kan laga något svenskt om du vill."En: "You can make something Swedish if you want."Sv: Linnea tänkte på sin mammas köttbullar och lingonsylt, och idéen om att dela en del av sin kultur kändes plötsligt mindre skrämmande.En: Linnea thought of her mother's meatballs and lingonberry jam, and the idea of sharing a part of her culture suddenly felt less daunting.Sv: "Okej, jag ska göra köttbullar," sade hon till slut.En: "Okay, I'll make meatballs," she finally said.Sv: Dagen för Thanksgiving kom, och luftens kyliga bris brötas av kamraters skratt och livliga konversationer.En: The day of Thanksgiving arrived, and the chilly breeze in the air was countered by the laughter and lively conversations of friends.Sv: I det lilla köket kämpade Linnea med att forma och steka köttbullar, medan Erik och Sofia fixade pumpapaj och tranbärssås.En: In the small kitchen, Linnea struggled to shape and fry meatballs, while Erik and Sofia prepared pumpkin pie and cranberry sauce.Sv: Trots att köket var trångt, fanns det en värme i gemenskapen.En: Despite the cramped kitchen, there was warmth in the camaraderie.Sv: När alla satte sig för att äta, frågade Sofia om Linnea kunde berätta om hennes familjs traditioner.En: As everyone sat down to eat, Sofia asked if Linnea could tell them about her family's traditions.Sv: Linnea kände plötsligt en värme i bröstet när hon delade minnen av svenska julhögtider och somrar vid sjön.En: Linnea suddenly felt a warmth in her chest as she shared memories of Swedish Christmas holidays and summers by the lake.Sv: Erik och Sofia lyssnade nyfiket och skrattade åt de roliga berättelserna.En: Erik and Sofia listened curiously and laughed at the funny stories.Sv: Kvällen avslutades med att de alla skålade med varma muggar av äppelcider.En: The evening ended with everyone toasting with warm mugs of apple cider.Sv: Linnea kände en ny känsla av tillhörighet, som om hon gjort en bit av detta främmande land till sitt eget hem.En: Linnea felt a new sense of belonging, as if she had made a piece of this foreign country her own home.Sv: Thanksgiving hade blivit en bro mellan hennes gamla och nya värld, och hon insåg att hem inte bara var en plats, utan en känsla hon kunde bära med sig överallt.En: Thanksgiving had become a bridge between her old and new worlds, and she realized that home was not just a place, but a feeling she could carry with her everywhere.Sv: Medan Erik och Sofia diskuterade planerna för nästa semester, kände Linnea hur hennes oro över att vara ensam sakta bortbleknade.En: As Erik and Sofia discussed plans for

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma's week has been an absolute whirlwind, cementing his status as one of the most vital new voices in Latin music. Fans packed the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles for his sold-out two-night run on Wednesday and Thursday, a splashy affair covered by LAist, where not only the music but the vibrant fan fashion stole the show. Attendees raved about the energy, calling Peso Pluma a phenomenon who's brought the corridos tumbados style from Jalisco to the international mainstream. One lifelong regional Mexican music fan even compared him to icons like Los Tigres del Norte and Ramon Ayala, celebrating how the genre now bridges generations and cultures in the U.S. That kind of crossover wasn't expected until recently, but the crowd at Inglewood proved how Peso Pluma's brand of storytelling connects with fans from East L.A. to Guatemala.Industry insiders and audience members alike noted that his concerts have become a gathering point for the Latino community, giving visibility and pride to Mexican musical roots while appealing to younger listeners who've found corridos more relatable thanks to artists like Peso Pluma. Social media buzzed all week with videos, selfies, and posts from the LA shows, as well as fans sporting custom merchandise and Mexican flags, amplifying the sense that his music isn't just entertainment—it's a movement.The excitement rolled into Thursday night's 2025 Latin Grammy Awards, held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. While Bad Bunny grabbed major headlines by sweeping album of the year and multiple other awards, Peso Pluma's impact was felt through nominations and conversations around the surge in regional Mexican music. News4Jax pointed out that the show spotlighted the genre's transformation, with references to Peso Pluma's influence alongside heavyweight acts like Fuerza Regida and Grupo Frontera. Although Peso Pluma didn't win the major hardware, his presence in the Latin Grammys—marked by his genre's meteoric rise—definitely sets him up as a mainstay for future awards.Business-wise, the demand for tickets, merch, and streaming continues to surge, with his latest album “Génesis” still charting after its breakaway debut at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. His social accounts have seen a steady flow of engagement this week, sharing clips from LA, fan shoutouts, and hype for future tour stops. Notably, there were no fresh controversies or dramatic gossip stories—no repeat of the infamous handholding at the Super Bowl, which earlier fueled rumors about his personal life and a split with Nicki Nicole, as previously referenced by AOL.All told, Peso Pluma's sold-out LA shows this week and his footprint at the Latin Grammys headline a pivotal period, further solidifying his role as a generational artist whose cultural and commercial momentum shows no sign of letting up.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Thieboudiène, Queijos artesanal do Minas Gerais, Harissa, baguette, couscous ou kimchi, autant de plats et de produits, de savoir-faire inscrits sur les listes du Patrimoine culturel immatériel de l'humanité de l'Unesco, l'Organisation des Nations unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture, depuis 2003. Cette liste est née d'un besoin de préserver et sauvegarder les rituels et les traditions, comme les édifices et les objets, et pour les états de répertorier et mettre en lumière ces trésors intangibles tels que l'art culinaire sénégalais incarné par le thieboudiène, la harissa pour la Tunisie, l'attiéké de Côte d'Ivoire, ou encore le repas gastronomique des Français. Cette liste des patrimoines est assortie d'un registre des bonnes pratiques pour suivre et garantir la sauvegarde des patrimoines, sans les figer dans un temps ou une époque. En effet, Les patrimoines sont le reflet de communauté, des temps qui changent, bien vivant. Dans ce sens, les plats peuvent ne plus être faits comme par le passé, mais le savoir-faire et les gestes persistent, se transmettent, se recréent et ainsi demeurent.  Une émission enregistrée à Tours, à Lille et à Paris, avec Loïc Bienassis, historien à l'IEHCA, rattaché à l'Université de Tours.

De tout temps, un soin tout particulier a été apporté au traitement du cadavre humain. En fonction des croyances, des cultures et des époques, ou par besoins techniques, l'homme a toujours perfectionné des pratiques et méthodes de conservation des corps pour atteindre un idéal répondant à ses exigences. Pourtant lorsque l'on parle d'embaumement notre esprit est conditionné et les premières images qui s'imposent à lui sortent tout droit des collections égyptiennes des musées.

On this episode, Chris Coyne speaks with Michael Romero, Mikayla Novak, and Anna Claire Flowers about the enduring influence of Kenneth Boulding on how we understand peace and cooperation. Romero discusses his paper “Markets as a Peace Lab,” coauthored with Virgil Storr, which explains how markets act as spaces where individuals cultivate trust, empathy, and peaceful exchange.

Jessica Ullrich grew up watching her parents live open-handedly, their home and resources always available for God's purposes. Those early lessons in faith and giving deepened during her college years on the mission field, where she saw how generosity could open doors for the Gospel in ways words alone could not. Though she began her career in social work, Jessica soon felt God redirecting her toward the place where ministry and organizational leadership meet, preparing her to guide others in generosity from a broader perspective.   Now, as Director of Programs with Generous Church, Jessica helps disciple-making networks around the world integrate generosity into their core training. Drawing on her cross-cultural experience and administrative insight, she equips leaders to tell stories of giving that fit their people's rhythms and languages. Her work has sparked movements where generosity becomes both a testimony and a tool for transformation.   Jessica's journey offers grounded insight for those discerning how to lead others in generosity that reflects God's heart and multiplies Kingdom impact.   Major Topics Include: How Stations of Generosity works for oratory cultures Similarities and differences between Stations and Generosity Design Lab Identifying people groups that would be a right fit for Stations Memorable stories of positive impact in the Field Salvations through simple generosity The challenge of generosity discipleship across cultures The necessity of prayer in the generosity movement An invitation to simple generosity QUOTES TO REMEMBER “The networks we get to serve and connect with are heroes in discipleship in the field.”  “Our metric is getting networks to the place of empowerment.

In Good Wife, Wise Mother: Educating Han Taiwanese Girls Under Japanese Rule (U Washington Press, 2024), female education and citizenship serve as a lens through which to examine Taiwan's uniqueness as a colonial crossroads between Chinese and Japanese ideas and practices. A latecomer to the age of imperialism, Japan used modernization efforts in Taiwan to cast itself as a benevolent force among its colonial subjects and imperial competitors. In contrast to most European colonies, where only elites received an education, in Taiwan Japan built elementary schools intended for the entire population, including girls. In 1897 it developed a program known as “Good Wife, Wise Mother” that sought to transform Han Taiwanese girls into modern Japanese female citizens. Drawing on Japanese and Chinese newspapers, textbooks, oral interviews, and fiction, Fang Yu Hu illustrates how this seemingly progressive project advanced a particular Japanese vision of modernity, womanhood, and citizenship, to which the colonized Han Taiwanese people responded with varying degrees of collaboration, resistance, adaptation, and adoption. Hu also assesses the program's impact on Taiwan's class structure, male-female interactions, and political identity both during and after the end of Japanese occupation in 1945. Good Wife, Wise Mother expands the study of Taiwanese history by contributing important gendered and nonelite perspectives. It will be of interest to any historian concerned with questions of modernity, hybridity, and colonial nostalgia. Fang Yu Hu is assistant professor of History at the California State Polytechnic University, Pomona who specializes in modern East Asian history, with a focus on Taiwan, gender, colonialism, and cross-border flows. She has published in the journals ERAS of Monash University and Twentieth-Century China. Her current research focuses on Taiwanese migrants to mainland China and Southeast Asia in the first half of the 20th century. Li-Ping Chen is a visiting scholar in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Southern California. Her research interests include literary translingualism, diaspora, and nativism in Sinophone, inter-Asian, and transpacific contexts.

Gossip, tension, and toxic environments can quietly destroy the trust and peace in any workplace — and as a leader, you often feel caught in the middle. In this episode, I share practical and biblical strategies to help female Christian leaders lead with grace, integrity, and confidence — even when the workplace feels heavy. You'll discover how to guard your heart, set the tone for a healthy culture, and replace gossip with open, respectful communication that reflects Christ. Key Takeaways Gossip and negativity are symptoms of a deeper leadership challenge — one that requires spiritual and emotional maturity. True leadership isn't about controlling every voice — it's about managing your own heart and response. A healthy culture starts with one courageous leader who's willing to model honesty, humility, and compassion. When people feel seen and valued, gossip loses its grip. Reflection Questions Where in your workplace have you allowed gossip or negativity to linger instead of addressing it? How can you lead by example and shift the tone toward respect this week? What would it look like to trust God to defend your reputation — instead of trying to manage it yourself? Take these to prayer or journaling time this week and ask the Holy Spirit to show you where He's calling you to lead with truth and love. Take the Next Step If this episode spoke to you — especially around self-doubt, fear, or feeling drained by negativity — it's time to break free from those inner struggles with the Imposter Syndrome Blueprint. This short, Scripture-rooted private podcast and workbook will help you: ✅ Silence self-doubt and overthinking ✅ Lead with Christ-centered confidence ✅ Stay calm and anchored even in hard environments

In this episode of Innovation Storytellers, I sit down with Annalisa Gigante, Vice Chair and Governing Board Member of the Henry Royce Institute, to explore how innovation truly works inside organizations. Annalisa has spent her career turning complex ideas into commercial realities. From helping bring new materials to everyday products like toothbrushes and ski poles to shaping billion-dollar innovation strategies for companies in life sciences, chemicals, and digital technologies, her story is both convenient and inspiring. We begin by tracing her unexpected path into innovation, back when it was still referred to as "business development." She recalls being handed a new material and told to find a market for it. That challenge taught her one of the most powerful lessons in innovation: how to transition from a technology-driven approach to a market-driven one.  Annalisa explains how curiosity led her to discover possibilities that her company's engineers had overlooked, opening up new consumer markets and changing how her teams thought about value. It was the beginning of a career spent helping organizations connect invention to impact. Throughout our conversation, Annalisa shares what it takes to create a lasting, innovative culture. She discusses building bridges between R&D and finance, how to measure and manage risk, and why learning to speak the language of every department is crucial. She describes innovation as a living ecosystem that depends on balance. Too much money and comfort can stifle creativity, but too little structure leads to chaos. Finding the "Goldilocks zone" for innovation, she says, is the real work of leadership. We also discuss deep tech and advanced materials, where patient capital and long-term vision are crucial. Annalisa offers a clear-eyed look at how breakthroughs move from the lab to the market and why the same principles apply whether you are scaling a startup or steering a global enterprise. She believes that innovation is as much about mindset as it is about technology, and that the most resilient organizations learn to treat failure as data, not defeat. Before we ended, Annalisa shares her passion for supporting women founders in the healthcare and life sciences sectors. With only a small fraction of funding going to female-led startups, she argues that closing this gap is not only fair but vital to solving the world's most challenging problems. It is a conversation about vision, courage, and the systems that allow great ideas to take root and thrive.
