 Protecting our environmentThe blue skies and warm weather of recent days is a reminder that spring will soon give way to summer. Everywhere the trees and flowers are coming into bloom and the dark evenings are retreating as our daylight hours increase. Regrettably, this change in weather also brings with it acts of vandalism, in particular the setting of wildfires that present a real danger to hill walkers, animals, local wildlife and the natural fauna.  Build Casement NowThe delay in building the new Casement Park is totally unacceptable. Like many Gaels of my age I grew up with Casement. I played there for our school teams and enjoyed sports days as well. I have watched umpteen games over the decades. Until 2013. That was the last time Casement Park hosted a game. On 10 June 2013. International Palestinian Child DayFirst, let me congratulate Francesca Albanese who despite a despicable campaign by Israel and its allies to have her sacked, will continue in her role as UN Special Rapporteur on human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories until 2028. She has been a champion for the people of Palestine as Israel's genocide continues to kill and wound hundreds every day.  Trade War Demands United responseThe U.S. President Donald Trump has initiated the most dangerous trade war of modern times. His widespread imposition of tariffs threatens untold damage to the world's economies. In the USA the stock market has declined sharply and senior economists are warning of a deep recession. These too will adversely impact world economies. There is no indication that President Trump intends to change direction. On the contrary he appears to be digging in. Campaign for Moore Street Continues.

At the heart of The Prophets' vision are “The 24 Essential Supply Chain Processes.” What are they? Find out, and see the future yourself. Click here In this episode of the Auto Supply Chain Prophets podcast, hosts Terry Onica and Jan Griffiths explore one of the industry's most overlooked but critical aspects: Supplier Relationship Management (SRM).The discussion starts with reflections on Stellantis' layoffs, which got Jan thinking about how OEMs and the UAW still approach negotiations in a transactional way. The same old "tit-for-tat" mindset from her days in the supply chain continues, but the real question is, how can we move beyond this?Fresh off a trip to Belgium, Terry brings practical insights from a recent conference where she discussed the importance of internal collaboration. With so many moving parts—purchasing, quality, materials management, plant operations—the challenge is how to break down silos and get everyone aligned. The solution? SRM technology. With today's SRM tools, companies can finally achieve a "single version of the truth," enabling real-time data access and more reliable performance metrics.The recent disruptions have pushed risk management and ESG into the spotlight, highlighting the need for compliance. It's no longer a matter of "should we do this?" but "we absolutely must." Jan and Terry point out that for leaders listening, now is the time to commit to compliance. This is especially true as regulations increase and controls become tighter, making it mandatory to establish effective systems for managing suppliers.What shines through this episode is Terry's unwavering optimism. Despite being in the trenches of the auto supply chain for years, she stays passionate and hopeful because, as she explains, she's seen it work. She talks about her work with problematic suppliers and how walking them through the steps of MMOG/LE transformed their businesses. Even industries outside of automotive, like medical, have reaped the benefits of implementing these best practices.Join us for a thought-provoking episode that urges listeners to rethink supplier management and highlights the importance of leadership, collaboration, and a unified approach to data.Themes discussed in this episode:The need for the automotive supply chain to move from transactional to collaborative relationshipsThe role of Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) tools in fostering data transparency and shared accountability among stakeholdersHow leadership commitment is essential for driving supply chain transformation and addressing resource constraintsThe increasing demand for rigorous data accuracy and compliance in today's complex supply chain environmentThe potential of technology to revolutionize supply chain processes and improve overall efficiencyWhy regular evaluations of supplier performance are necessary to encourage accountability and sustained successHow implementing best practices from frameworks like MMOG/LE can significantly improve supplier collaboration and overall performanceFeatured on this episode: Name: Terry OnicaTitle: Director, Automotive at QADAbout: For two decades, Terry has been the automotive vertical director of this provider of manufacturing Enterprise Resource Planning software and supply chain solutions. Her career began in the supply chain in the late 1980s when she led a team to implement Electronic Data Interchange for all the Ford assembly and component plants.Connect:

Even when you've figured out the most effective messaging in the world, sharing that with the rest of your team and helping them to use it to produce the results you want can be a huge challenge. What definitely does not work is to simply provide all those talking points and say, here's everything in our messaging that works. Go do it. That's valuable information to have, but it is not enough. You may already have in your head all the details about when and where and how to most effectively deploy which pieces of that messaging. But you cannot assume that the rest of your team already knows that. In fact, they probably don't. In order for your team to effectively deploy your best messaging, they have to understand why it's the best. What each component is designed to accomplish, and when and how to use which pieces of it to greatest effect.In this episode, we share:Why your team may be struggling to use your messaging effectively with decisionmakersWhat your team needs to know about the strategy behind the messaging, and how to teach them How to help your team practice key messaging and engagement skills in a low-risk environmentThe easiest way for your team to integrate all your key messaging so they can call it up from memory at willThe best way to improve your messaging and empower your team at the same time If you found value in this episode, please share it with other progressive nonprofit leaders.  And I'd be grateful if you would leave a rating and review on Apple podcasts, which will help even more people find out about this podcast.Thanks! 

Transformation Tip: “Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.” - Jim RohnPeople exceptionally talented in the Discipline theme enjoy routine and structure.

In today's episode, I share some personal reflections on the often-stigmatized topic of overeating, particularly in the aftermath of holiday indulgence. I talk about my own Easter “nutritional chaos,” and realistic expectations with your relationship with food. With a mix of humor and sincerity, the discussion turns to the difference between overeating and binge eating, emphasizing that the former is a normal part of life and not synonymous with a disorder. The episode serves as a reminder that perfection in dietary habits is neither attainable nor desirable. So lighten up, mkay?“Your messed up relationship with food and your body affects the people around you in more ways than you like to admit.”- IrisDeadliftsThis week on Tater Talks: Two Bitches Talk Fitness:The important distinction between overeating and binge eatingWhat “all foods fit” actually meanHow managing expectations can dramatically influence our progressWhy beating yourself up for overeating is ridiculous and goofy, so stop itTips on managing temptation by rearranging one's environmentThe importance of periodic maintenance phasesThe responsibility all humans have to deconstruct their mindset about food, body, and exerciseResources Mentioned: Understand Binge Eating with Chase Smith EpisodeTrigger Foods Podcast EpisodeSelf Sabotage: Why & What to Do About It EpisodeIrisDeadlifts on InstagramApply for 1:1 Coaching with Team BFFThanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Tater Talks: Two Bitches Talk Fitness, where we challenge the common understanding of what it means and what it takes to be fit and healthy!
