The Art of Manliness
From Public Citizens to Therapeutic Selves — The Hidden History of Modern Identity

The Art of Manliness

When you scroll through social media feeds today, you'll find countless posts about “living your truth” and “being authentic.” These ideas feel so natural to us now that we rarely stop to ask where they came from or what they really mean.The concept of identity — how we understand ourselves — has undergone a radical transformation over the centuries. What once was defined primarily by external markers like family, profession, and community has shifted dramatically toward inner feelings, desires, and psychological experiences.Today on the show, Carl Trueman unpacks this profound change and how we got to the lens through which we view ourselves today. Carl is a professor, theologian, and the author of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self. Throughout our conversation, he explores the insights of three key thinkers — Charles Taylor, Philip Rieff, and Alasdair MacIntyre — who have mapped the historical and cultural shifts that have transformed our ideas of identity. We discuss how this transformation has reshaped politics, education, and religion, while considering whether we've lost something essential in moving from a shared understanding of human nature to an increasingly individualized conception of self.Resources Related to the PodcastThe Triumph of the Therapeutic: Uses of Faith After Freud by Philip RieffSources of the Self: The Making of the Modern Identity by Charles TaylorAfter Virtue: A Study in Moral Theory by Alasdair MacIntyreThe Abolition of Man by C.S.

Ideas are like green coffee seeds. They are bundles potential cultivated by earnest hands that are then received by others who take them and develop them further. The final rendering of that seed can and does often result in something beautiful. This is how I think of mediums like podcasts, videos, and, of course, books.  Today I want to share with you 5 books that I believe speak to areas of our lives and businesses that will bring inspiration, perspective, comfort, and growth. They are all special and I hope you take the time to dive into one or all of them sometime soon so you can see what grows from the seed of those ideas in your life.  Links: Celebrating the Third Place Shopkeeping What to Remember When Waking Unreasonable Hospitality The Art of being Indispensable at Work The Practicing Mind Related episodes:  083: 6 Essential Books for your Professional Growth 137 : Essential Books for your Professional Development vol.2 : Five books to help you grow Want a beautiful coffee shop?

This installment of GoodFellows is devoted to audience questions—viewers and listeners putting Hoover senior fellows Niall Ferguson, John Cochrane, and H.R. McMaster through their intellectual paces. Among the topics broached: a possible re-embrace of Western heritage; the same pre–World War I mentality that dismissed the likelihood of a global conflict potentially enabling a third world war; India and Pakistan's economic and geostrategic outlooks; Donald Trump's second-term objectives, should he be reelected; and Argentinian president Javier Milei's pro-market “shock therapy” and his World Economic Forum “special address” dressing down Davos attendees. Viewers also asked: Why not a fellows' blues band? Might Niall consider adding a little profanity to his profundity?

Our recommended five books are:Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time (Titus Winters, Tom Manshreck and Hyrum Wright)An Elegant Puzzle: Systems of Engineering Management (Will Larson)Scaling People: Tactics for Management and Company Building (Claire Hughes Johnson)Build Better Products: A Modern Approach to Building Successful User-Centered Products (Laura Klein)Team Topologies: Organizing Business and Technology Teams for Fast Flow (Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais) Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time (2020, 575 pages, Titus Winters, Tom Manshreck and Hyrum Wright)A fascinating insight into software engineering practices and tools used at technology leader Google. I love their definition of software engineering as programming integrated over time. The 25 in-depth chapters are written by Google domain experts and offer a glimpse into how scaling and sustainability are handled and traded against other concerns.The is a big book full of useful information, but the density of multiple authors limited to a chapter apiecedoes make it challenging to read at times. Definitely recommended, but be prepared to devote a chunk of your time to study the book and get the most out of it.An Elegant Puzzle: Systems of Engineering Management (2019, 288 pages, Will Larson)A beautifully presented hardback book containing engineering leader Will Larson's guidance on engineering management. There is a lot of strong and hard-won advice on organizations, tools, approaches, culture and careers. The content is practical and provides an unusual depth on engineering management in modern software organizations.The figures are sometimes obtuse and the last 71-page appendix and endnotes are mostly superfluous. I also did not enjoy some of the referencing out either where no information is given other than a single word and Q-code link. Regardless, this is a great book.Scaling People: Tactics for Management and Company Building (2023, 432 pages, Claire Hughes Johnson)Author Claire Hughes Johnson is a corporate officer and advisor at Stripe after spending seven years as COO while they rapidly scaled from 200 to over 7000 people. Before this, she spent 10 years at Google leading successful business teams. The book is beautifully presented, full of valuable guidance and provides practical advice of great leadership and pragmatic scaling. The examples are perfectly placed and insightful to demonstrate the advice around them.Build Better Products: A Modern Approach to Building Successful User-Centered Products (2016, 368 pages, Laura Klein)I am starting to love the Rosenfeld Media series — high-quality books, presented beautifully, edited expertly and eminently practical. Color is used intelligently throughout as you would expect from design-focused books.Lean startup expert and “What is Wrong with UX” podcaster Laura Klein writes a great book on how to build new products. This practical guide is organized around exercises with expert advice from experienced practitioners at the end of each chapter. Expect lots of strategy, design, analytics and empathy; heist teams are worth the price of admission on their own.Team Topologies: Organizing Business and Technology Teams for Fast Flow (2019, 240 pages, Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais)Pragmatic and informative guide to organization design from IT consultants Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais. Building on their work on Team Topologies with real experience, the authors cover teams as a means of delivery, team topologies that work for flow, and evolving team interactions for innovation and rapid delivery. The book is well written with a good level of depth, with valuable illustrations and strong use of color and design throughout. I recommend this book to anyone interested in creating effective teams and high-performance workplaces. Peter Hyde is surely one of Gartner's most prolific readers and writers. He is an enterprise agile coach with deep experience in helping global organizations transform product development to achieve higher performance, increased quality, faster delivery and an outstanding customer experience.

Curiosity is the reason we got into coffee. As we go on in our careers though, the world we thought was so big becomes much smaller. We learn the rules, the ropes, and we get busy with the business of coffee often at the expense of being fascinated by it.  Today we will be discussing the importance of curiosity and how it has a tremendous impact on our personal and professional lives. To do this I am joined by someone who's job it is to inspire curiosity in people around the world, Cody Gough! Cody Gough is the executive producer and co-host of Curiosity Daily, an award-winning daily science podcast from Curiosity.com. Curiosity Daily was recognized as the Best Technology & Science Podcast in the 2019 Discover Pods Awards, and was recognized as the Best Science & Medicine Podcast at the 13th Annual Podcast Awards. Cody's broadcasting background includes more than a decade of experience working at Chicago’s 720 WGN Radio in both on-air and production roles. He’s also a seasoned podcaster with The GonnaGeek Podcast Network, an accomplished commercial actor, and former cooking show host. I am so happy to have gotten a chance to speak with Cody. I really enjoy his podcast and believe that what we discuss here today will, not only ignite our curiosity, but will help us break out of our ruts and explore the world around us a bit more deeply. The return on investing in curiosity is immeasurable.  We will discuss: How Cody has developed more curiosity through the show What role curiosity plays in producing Nobel Prize winners Why curiosity makes you better at hospitality The importance of outside interests and hobbies Steps to take in igniting your curiosity Some of the coolest hangs Cody has learned from his show   Links: www.Curiosity.com Cody on Twitter   Related episodes: 165 : The Art of Deep Listening w/ Oscar Trimboli 137 : Essential Books for your professional Development 112 : The Power of Story w/ James Harper   The BEST in commercial coffee equipment www.prima-coffee.com/keys   Want the best plant based beverage for your coffee drinks?  www.pacificfoods.com/food-service

As goes the culture, so goes the company. This is just a fact. All of us want to be able to say that our employee cultures are strong, vibrant, and dedicated to the vision we have set for the company. Unfortunately though, it aint that easy. Today we are addressing this with what I believe may be the most powerful series of insights you’ve ever heard on employee culture and how to work for and with it to amazing success. I am so pleased to be talking with the amazing, Stan Slap, author of one of my most recommended books, “Under the Hood : Fire up and Fine-tune your Employee Culture”  Stan is the founder and CEO of SLAP company and has spent the last 3 decades specializing in achieving fierce support from manager, employee and customer cultures. They believe within each of these groups there is one problem that has the biggest impact on the enterprise and one solution that is most valuable, coveted and elusive. The SLAP company has cracked the code on these problems and their solutions are highest rated in many of the world's highest rated companies.  They are currently working in 44 countries countries and ahave achieved amazing results in employee culture at companies like Oracle, CNN, Timewarner, Google, Starbucks, eBay, Viacom, and Microsoft among many others.  I don’t know of a more potent example of what good and bad employee cultural engagement than the elbow-to-elbow laboratory that is the coffee bar. This episode is absolutely a game changer and foundational listening if you want to create and lead an amazing employee culture.  In this episode you will learn about: 4 of the "7 Deadly Sins of Cultural Engagement"   How culture is formed and what it cares about Best practices for engaging and guiding a culture How do we fail our employees? Secrets to scaling culture How to create “cultural legends” Why you cannot coax a culture into giving you what you want Tactics for true communication How do customers factor into your employee culture? There is honestly so much more here and I implore you to get the book "Under the Hood", listen to this episode several times, take notes, and see how big of an impact these insights have on your company.    Links: www.slapcompany.com   Remember to sign up to be put on the Keys to the Shop email list to get weekly resources, bonus audio from todays guest, transcripts, and more.

If there ever was a Bible for documentary filmmaking, for my money, it would have to be https://www.amazon.com/Michael-Rabiger/e/B001ILHFOE (Michael Rabiger)‘s http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0415719305/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0415719305&linkCode=as2&tag=cparkhurst01-20&linkId=8d6783da5e1aa3908084469550d2578a (Directing the Documentary). The shear volume of books, online courses, podcasts, and How-to Youtube videos that are out there for the indie filmmaker who producers narrative film is probably in the cajillions. However, the amount of material available for the indie filmmaker who is producing documentary work, pales in comparison. Which is what makes Rabiger's Directing the Documentary all the more important and impressive.   This book literally has everything you could ever want in a book about documentary filmmaking: all phases of documentary filmmaking, the history of the documentary cinema, vocations associated with documentary, the various ways of storytelling, fundraising… you name it, it's there. And it's all delivered in a fun, practical, at-times philosophical approach that is quite unique to Rabiger's vision.

Harry Truman famously said, “Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers.” If you’re like me, reading wasn’t a favorite pastime in high school and college. But over the years, that’s changed. Now I’ve got a stack of books I regularly work through; and while I can’t carve out hours at a time for reading, I can make incremental progress. But this is about more than the simple act of reading. As leaders, we’re constantly going to face new situations, some of which will have us scratching our heads, wondering how we got there in the first place. Regardless of if you’re in a new leadership role, or have been leading your organization or church for decades, there are books that have helped me in every season of leadership. They’re not all best sellers. In fact, they’re not all recently written. But they all speak to different stages and seasons we experience in our leadership, and creative ways that Outsiders before us have approached them. This week I share the 5 essential books for every season of leadership. Listen, get copies for yourself and your team, and then let me know what books are currently on your reading list, I’d love to hear from you!
