Today, I'm going to be looking at how to recruit and hire with the help of DISC, but first…It's World Art Day so to illustrate (pun intended) this theme, here is: DISC as Art D – Cubism. Described as Revolutionary and Rebellious. Picasso is an example.I – Post Impressionism. Colourful, emotive. There's a focus on the artist's feelings towards the subject. Van Gogh's Starry night expresses this.S – Impressionism. Depicting nature and tranquility. Think Monet's water lilies.C – Precisionism – Using precise, sharply defined geometrical forms. Georgia O'Keefe's early work of cityscapes embodies this.Okay, let's get into our topic. I spend a lot of time on this podcast talking about DISC and other tools from a “theoretical perspective”, but today I'm going to get into the very practical applications of using DISC as a recruiting/hiring/onboarding tool.

In this conversation, Dr. Sandra Glahn, Dr. Matthew Milliner, and Christine Calareso Bleecker discuss the absence of depicting the body of the first person of the Trinity in Christian art and how it has shaped perceptions of women. Dr. Milliner explains that early Christian art depicted the Trinity through sarcophagi and male embodiments of Christ, but the depiction of the Father went underground due to the influence of pagan depictions of Zeus. The resurgence of depicting the Trinity in art in later centuries led to the physical depiction of God and the caricature of the bearded male figure. This had ramifications for women, as it emphasized one gender's resemblance to God and undermined the understanding that both men and women fully image God. The conversation also explores the visual literacy needed to identify Virgin stories in art, such as the depictions of Agnes, Dorothy, Catherine, and Agatha. The significance of depicting the Virgin Mary is discussed, highlighting her representation of the ecclesial nature of the formation of the body of Christ and the reflection on end-of-life issues. The conversation also emphasizes the beauty and redemptive power of these art depictions. It also explores the power of images in healing and restoration, the importance of lament and hope, and the role of Mary as a symbol of healing and response to violence. Plus, the conversation also touches on the Virgin of the Passion and Our Lady of Perpetual Help as icons of love in the face of violence while addressing the power of images in overcoming pornography and the historical tradition of Mary as a leader in the church.Key Takeaways: The absence of depicting the body of the first person of the Trinity in Christian art has shaped perceptions of women.The resurgence of depicting the Trinity in art led to the physical depiction of God and the caricature of the bearded male figure.Depicting the Father physically undermined the understanding that both men and women fully image God.Visual literacy is important for identifying Virgin stories in art and understanding their significance.

We meet artist Doron Langberg at his new exhibition in London at Victoria Miro Gallery. Night is a hymn to nocturnal worlds both interior and exterior, and the spaces of ambiguity, opportunity and liberation – physical and psychological – that open up after dark. We also meet Doron's gallerists Victoria Miro and Glenn Scott Wright.Doron Langberg's intimate yet expansive take on relationships, sexuality, nature, family and the self proposes how painting can both portray and create queer subjectivity, forging a relationship between interior and exterior realities and the ways in which they shape and are shaped by one another. Titled after queer New York parties and club nights such as Merge and Wrecked, the spaces in these new paintings are worlds in themselves, sites of multiple layers and levels of experience and connection. Together, the works create a narrative arc that follows the course of an evening, a night out becoming the morning after as we move from Basement to Sunrise. The exhibition is accompanied by a new essay by New York-based writer and therapist Hannah Baer. Prominent among a new generation of figurative painters, Doron Langberg creates luminous works that celebrate the physicality of touch – in subject matter and process. Depicting a range of subjects, from queer love to wildflowers and sweeping landscapes, the broad scope of themes and experiences in Langberg's work are underscored by his deeply felt use of paint. Aspects of nature are an enduring source of inspiration, resonating feelings of connection through flowers depicted in close up or as part of enveloping vistas.The works on view in Venice were painted en plein air at different times of the year and include cultivated garden plants as well ostensibly wild or self-seeded varieties – such as ragwort, thistle and dandelion. Langberg paints these fleeting moments spontaneously in one session, alighting on patches of ground and recording them in bursts of activity. Flowers and foliage spring from the whiteness of the canvas in flurries of brushstrokes, preserved by the artist as if moments of revelation. For the artist, painting nature as an ‘embodied experience' is key. Capturing both external realities and internal states of mind, he makes a connection with artists across history – for example, the landscapes of Munch or Van Gogh. The work points to the broader significance of landscapes exterior and interior, and how they relate to or signify our own emotional states.Doron Langberg: Night, featuring large-scale tableaux of nightclub and nocturnal beach scenes, is on view at Victoria Miro, London, is now open and runs until 28 March 2024. Free entry.

Depicting a story in grandiose detail, Martha describes her loved one coming home on Christmas Eve. She eloquently shares the sound of the train whistle in the distance. Much of the story isn't true, but it goes to show you that the incredible detail of a brain suffering with dementia can dream up amazing colorful stories.  This episode 44 is also dedicated to Ricky, who just after recording, passed on to his eternal home. Making memories with your loved ones is better than any extravagant pricey gift. Keep it simple. Find a new normal. Take them where their heart is. Make even the slightest little thing special.
