Finding Consciousness at the Heart of it All with Neil Theise (Part 2)Episode DescriptionIn part two, Ilia Delio and Neil Theise unpack the implications of complexity theory for human life, especially consciousness, our technology and the relationship between them. Can AI become “conscious?” Neil tells us more about his journey as a practicing Zen Buddhist, its impact on his research and thought, and the value our wisdom traditions can still offer to science.ABOUT NEIL THEISE “The teeming hordes of living things on Earth, not only in space but in time, are actually all one massive, single organism just as certainly as each one of us (in our own minds) seems to be a distinct human being throughout our limited lifetime.”Neil Theise, MD, is a professor of pathology at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine. Through his scientific research, he has been a pioneer of adult stem cell plasticity and the anatomy of the human interstitium. Dr. Theise's studies in complexity theory have led to interdisciplinary collaborations in fields such as integrative medicine, consciousness studies, and science-religion dialogue. His recent book, Notes on Complexity: The Scientific Theory of Connection, Consciousness, and Being explores all of these topics and more. He comes from a spiritual background of devotional Jewish practices and is a Senior Student at the Village Zendo in NYC. Support the Show.A huge thank you to all of you who subscribe and support our show!

Episode DescriptionIn this week's Veterinary Leadership Success Show, host Dr. Dave Nicol is joined by Dr. Peter Weinstein. They discuss crucial aspects of efficient processes and productivity within veterinary practice, the importance of both visionary and performance-based leadership, and the goal of creating a workplace where both people and pets can prosper. Dr. Peter Weinstein offers critical insights on optimizing practice efficiency, allowing veterinarians to focus on their primary functions and enhancing overall productivity and effectiveness.Efficient use of physical space is crucial in veterinary practices to enhance productivity and service quality. Dr. Peter Weinstein highlights the importance of configuring spaces to maximize utility without unnecessary expansion. He suggests increasing the number of exam rooms, which should be actively managed by both veterinarians and trained technicians. This strategy not only boosts the number of patients seen but also effectively leverages the skills of the entire team.Eliminating redundancy in processes is critical for improving efficiency and effectiveness. Dr. Weinstein advocates for standardized processes or "recipes" for routine tasks to ensure consistency and reduce errors. For example, checklists for surgical setups or anesthetic procedures can prevent omissions and enhance safety. He also suggests cross-training staff to handle different roles, increasing staffing flexibility and helping prevent burnout by varying tasks and responsibilities.Implementing these strategies leads to a more streamlined operation where veterinarians can maximize their productivity in critical and revenue-generating activities. When staff are trained and deployed effectively, the practice can handle a higher volume of cases without compromising quality of care, ultimately leading to increased profitability and client satisfaction.Episode Outline[00:03:12] The E-Myth Veterinarian book.[00:06:02] Efficiency and productivity in business.[00:08:26] Specialty veterinary clinics.[00:11:55] Utilizing technicians in exam rooms.[00:16:27] Understanding profit in veterinary practices.[00:19:32] Online vs. In-House Pharmacy Margins.[00:24:02] Online pharmacy integration.[00:26:40] Effective veterinary training programs.[00:31:52] Veterinary technician concurrent training.[00:34:52] Process improvement in veterinary clinics.[00:38:33] Productivity and efficiency discussion.[00:41:09] Leveraging technology in wellness exams.[00:45:12] Reducing workplace stress.[00:48:24] Audiophile book recommendation.Episode LinksConnect with Dr. Peter Weinstein on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pawdr/Mentioned in this episode:Today's show is brought to you by Leaders, Dr Dave Nicol's Leadership training course.

A homecoming of sorts… more on that in the episode. If you are thinking about doing something similar then this show is well worth a listen. We cover quite a lot of ground including:How he arrived at the decision and what fears he had along the way.The reality of demands of starting and running a veterinary practice on family life. Why mentorship is going to be baked into his practice from the ground up. How technology can be used to improve life quality for veterinary teams.

Episode DescriptionIn this episode of the Veterinary Leadership Success Show, Dr. Dave delves into a pivotal aspect of self-development: confronting our inner critic with facts, not fiction. Drawing from personal experience, Dr. Dave shares a poignant moment where a distraction led to a medication error. Rather than succumbing to self-blame, Dr. Dave advocates for a pragmatic approach rooted in reality.By embracing facts, we can impartially dissect what went wrong without amplifying unwarranted guilt or fabricating narratives. Dr. Dave introduces the concept of crafting a defense counsel persona to challenge the inner critic's harsh verdicts. This persona adeptly focuses on the factual landscape, including recognizing distractions, pinpointing errors, and identifying areas ripe for improvement.By redirecting our attention to facts and objectively scrutinizing the situation, we can break free from the grip of self-reproach and shame. This method fosters a constructive analysis of missteps, paving the way for actionable strategies to grow and evolve. Moreover, it empowers individuals to glean valuable lessons from their experiences and implement safeguards to prevent recurrence.Ultimately, by confronting our inner critic armed with facts, we cultivate a clearer outlook, self-compassion, and a steadfast commitment to personal growth. Join Dr. Dave as he illuminates the path to resilience and self-improvement in the face of inner turmoil.Episode Outline[00:01:14] The judge, the jury, and potentially the firing squad.[00:06:35] Dealing with inner critics.[00:08:42] Managing your inner critic.[00:12:25] Dealing with self-criticism.[00:15:47] Dealing with self-criticism.[00:18:14] Ways to work through difficult situations.Mentioned in this episode:Today's show is brought to you by Leaders, Dr Dave Nicol's Leadership training course.

Episode DescriptionIn this episode of the Veterinary Leadership Success Show, Dr. Dave Nicol discusses navigating low energy states as a veterinary leader.Strategies for maintaining energy are crucial for leaders, as their energy not only affects their own well-being but also transfers to their team. In the podcast episode, several strategies were discussed:Self-awareness: Being aware of one's energy levels and recognizing the cyclical nature of energy is important. Understanding that there are highs and lows in energy throughout the year allows leaders to calibrate their energy levels accordingly. For example, during winter when the days are shorter and the weather is gloomy, it is natural to experience lower energy levels. By acknowledging this, leaders can adjust their expectations and take steps to replenish their energy.Rest and recovery: Rest is essential for maintaining energy levels. Just as athletes need rest days to improve their performance, leaders also need regular breaks to recharge. This can include taking a day off each week, going on vacation, or simply finding moments of rest throughout the day. Resting allows for adaptation and response to the demands of leadership, preventing burnout and exhaustion.Taking action on challenges: Addressing challenges and resolving them is crucial for maintaining energy. Leaders should not let negative or stressful situations fester but instead take proactive steps to tackle them. This may involve seeking help from outside sources, addressing conflicts, or implementing changes to improve the situation. By addressing challenges head-on, leaders can reduce stress and prevent the depletion of energy.Applying the 80-20 rule: The 80-20 rule, also known as the Pareto Principle, suggests that 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. By identifying the smaller issues that are causing the most significant problems, leaders can prioritize their actions and focus on the most impactful tasks. This approach allows leaders to address the root causes of energy depletion and make efficient use of their time and resources.Finding sources of inspiration: Surrounding oneself with positive and inspiring influences can help maintain energy levels. Leaders can seek inspiration from various sources, such as YouTube videos, podcasts, or books. Engaging with content that aligns with their interests and goals can provide a fresh perspective and reinvigorate their energy. It is important to be selective and choose sources of inspiration that uplift and motivate rather than drain energy.In summary, maintaining energy as a leader requires self-awareness, rest and recovery, taking action on challenges, and finding sources of inspiration. By implementing these strategies, leaders can sustain their energy levels and create a positive and energized environment for themselves and their teams.Episode Outline[00:01:06] Energy and its impact.[00:05:23] Low energy moments in leadership.[00:08:00] Cyclical nature of energy.[00:11:40] Depleting and replenishing energy.[00:15:57] Tackling toxic teammates.[00:19:31-00:19:42] Rest and sources of inspiration.Quotes"Energy is so, so important to leaders.""meh, no, that's not important. Don't listen to that clown. He doesn't really care. Doesn't really know. Doesn't know you. That's boring. You're good.”"Our energy as a parent transfers to our children. Our energy as a leader transfers to our teams.""Rest is where a lot of the gains are made. When you're doing something and you're just doing too much of it, make sure you're resting.""One person can wreck a culture. You address that issue with that person either by coaching them up or coaching them out and the...

Episode DescriptionIn this episode, Dr. Dave Nicol, a veterinarian and leadership expert, provides a response to Adrian Chiles' controversial article in the Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/nov/15/what-have-i-learned-after-three-years-of-dog-ownership-never-trust-a-vet) and to the wider ignorance in the media. Understanding the unique dynamics and demands of running a successful veterinary practice as an owner himself, Dr. Dave is passionate about empowering his listeners to create a workplace where both people and pets can thrive.The episode delves into the issue of ignorance in the media and its impact on people's perception of veterinarians. Dr. Dave encourages veterinary professionals to vaccinate themselves against this ignorance and not let it affect their work. While acknowledging the challenges, he emphasizes the importance of navigating the leadership challenges in the veterinary profession.Furthermore, the episode addresses the burnout experienced by younger veterinarians in their careers. Dr. Dave attributes this burnout to a lack of communication and business skills, which are not adequately taught in veterinary training. The disruptions in university training and lockdowns have also hindered the development of social skills, leading to increased anxiety and stress among younger vets.To address these challenges, Dr. Dave calls for leaders, business owners, and practice owners to take responsibility in teaching these essential skills to the younger generation. He also urges individual veterinarians to take charge of their own development in these areas.Episode Outline[00:01:09] Lack of trust in vets.[00:05:30] Kennel cough and misdiagnosis.[00:09:39] Media responsibility and mental health.[00:12:08] Vets practicing defensive medicine.[00:15:46] Clients are not the enemy.[00:18:47] Take care and we'll see you next time on the Veterinary Leadership Success Show.Quotes“And I do think there's a responsibility on media to think really carefully about this, especially when you're dealing with a group of individuals with a suicide rate of somewhere between 2 and 4 times the national average.”"Clients are not the enemy.""There is not a group of people on this planet that I think is more worthy of your trust."Mentioned in this episode:Today's show is brought to you by Leaders, Dr Dave Nicol's Leadership training course.

Episode DescriptionIn this week's Veterinary Leadership Success Show podcast, Dr. Dave is joined by Dr. Saye Clement as they discuss the significance of self-awareness as a crucial trait for effective leadership. Dr. Saye also compares self-awareness to building muscle at the gym, stating that it is a skill that can be developed and improved upon. While some individuals may have a natural inclination towards self-awareness, Dr. Saye suggests that everyone can work on enhancing this trait.Furthermore, Dr. Saye shares a personal experience where she had someone in their practice who served as their moral compass. This individual helped them maintain self-awareness during times when they were not at their best. They would approach Dr. Saye, recognizing her emotional state, and check if she was okay or needed a break.Dr. Saye emphasizes that very few people are born ready to fit the mold of a leader and that leadership is a skill that is developed over time. She notes that while some individuals may be more naturally inclined towards self-awareness, it is a trait that can be cultivated by everyone. When discussing ways to build or enhance self-awareness, Dr. Saye suggests focusing specifically on self-awareness rather than being aware of everything else.Overall, the episode underscores the value of building self-awareness as a leader and highlights that it can be developed through practice and feedback from others. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing and acknowledging one's own strengths and weaknesses in order to grow and improve as a leader.Episode Outline[00:02:29] Effective leadership and execution.[00:05:10] Great leaders and developing others.[00:07:17] Building self-awareness.[00:11:09] Good leaders are humble.[00:14:22] Reasons for errors and judgment.[00:18:30] Leadership energy and aging.[00:21:14] Practicing leadership mindset.Quotes"If we cannot be humble about our mistakes, then the concern is that how can we expect anyone else to be willing to learn from errors or to realize it's psychologically a safe place for them to make an error and not try and hide it.""I think the great leaders are the ones who will develop the people who follow them far more than they develop themselves, and that they care more about the people who follow them than they do themselves.""And I think part of really good leadership is actually recognizing that about yourself and saying, Hey, I'm not at my best today."Mentioned in this episode:Today's show is brought to you by Leaders, Dr Dave Nicol's Leadership training course.

Episode DescriptionIn this episode, host Dom Hawes meets Joel Harrison, and Georgina Gilmore and they discuss the role of marketing in mergers and acquisitions. They highlight the importance of involving marketing early in the process, as marketing can add value from the very beginning, especially in understanding human behaviour and instincts. They also emphasize the importance of communication and alignment with employees and customers during mergers and acquisitions, as poor communication can lead to a loss of talent and customer base.

Episode Transcript available here.Episode DescriptionIn this episode, Cheelan Bo-Linn (CITL) and Yilan Xu (ACES) join host Bob Dignan to unpack the graphic syllabus. A misnomer of sorts, the graphic syllabus doesn't focus on classroom policies and procedures, due dates, and a wordy course description, which can create a disconnect with students. Instead, it visually lays out the main learning objective the instructor wants students to get out of the course – or what Bo-Linn calls “the Big Idea” – and how they will go about learning it. It also helps set the tone for the class. “It's more like a tool to help you rethink what's the most important thing in your class and how you organize all your materials around it,” says Xu, who worked with Bo-Linn to drill down to the Big Idea of her Retirement Benefits Planning course and create an interactive, evolving graphic, which the class revisits throughout the semester to see where they, how far they've come, and what's to come. Xu outlines the process she used and a few iterations of her Big Idea, and Bo-Linn provides some creative examples from instructors in other disciplines. “I would hope it would be an inspiration to encourage faculty members to just try this,” says Xu, who also reports what students think about it.

Mike Noonan (@CoachMikeNoonan) is Head Coach of Clemson Men's University soccer team and current NCAA Division 1 Champion, the national champion of college soccer. Following retirement from professional soccer, he has gone on to become one of the most well-respected college soccer coaches characterized by an impressive consistency and talent development. Episode DescriptionIn this talk with @markusfjortoft and @CiaranMcKenna8, he reflects on recruiting character instead of players, taking an educational approach to developing players, cultivating a “winning” culture across decades of coaching, where college fits in the larger American development system and the “software” it provides, and how MLS can do better in recognizing this.At Ivy League school Brown University, Mike enjoyed consistent success, reaching 8 NCAA appearances, and winning 8 Ivy League Championships. Following his 15 years at Brown, he became head coach at Clemson and has since won 4 ACC Regular Season Championships and 2 Tournament Championships. Follow BroPod on Twitter @BroPod1 and Facebook.
