The Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast with Vicki Noethling
✨ Ethics - Brand Loyalty ✨ Gen Z isn't just buying products—they're buying values.
Join hosts Luke Carignan and Bo Brabo for a lively episode of The ASHHRA Podcast, where they chat with Victor Gaines, AVP of Talent Acquisition at Wellstar Health System. Kicking off with NFL banter and a playful scoop on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's "engagement" (spoiler: it's all in good fun), the conversation quickly dives into Victor's eclectic career journey—from finance and TV to healthcare, pizza at Papa John's, and bourbon at Sazerac—now circling back to innovative TA in healthcare.Victor shares how his cross-industry experience (spanning high-volume hiring at Comcast and Papa John's to specialized roles at Fiserv and McKesson) equips him to tackle post-pandemic challenges like agility, digital transformation, and operational efficiency. The trio explores the transformative power of AI in TA: from automating scheduling and screening to combating bias and "hallucinations." Thought-provoking questions arise—can AI eradicate human biases, or does it amplify them? How close are we to AI-driven individualized learning or even clinical efficiencies?Key takeaways:Diverse Backgrounds Fuel Innovation: Victor's non-traditional path highlights why healthcare is increasingly recruiting external talent for fresh perspectives.AI's Double-Edged Sword: Essential for high-volume tasks but demands a "human in the loop" to mitigate risks like unintended bias or outdated data.Future-Proofing TA: Insights on pre-boarding, ambient listening in clinics, and ethical AI use—could we see 30%+ efficiency gains in five years?Victor's wisdom: "We've seen unprecedented change; now it's about agility to persevere." Whether you're in HR, TA, or curious about AI's role in work, this episode sparks debate on balancing tech with human judgment.Tune in on your favorite podcast platform or visit ashhra.org/ashhra-podcast.

Send us a textEver wondered how artists can honor each other's work while still sharing techniques with new audiences? Dive deep into the transformative power of ethical collaboration as we explore what happens when creators support each other with integrity and purpose.Through my recent partnerships with artists like Natasha Smart and Ali Kay, I've witnessed firsthand how respectful collaboration creates ripple effects throughout the creative community. When Natasha graciously allowed me to teach her wet felting techniques in my U.S. studio, every student received her book and joined her private Facebook group—ensuring her work reached new admirers while maintaining her connection to the process. Similarly, Ali's Fresh Paint approach has empowered countless beginners to discover their artistic voice, inspiring me to develop simplified techniques that make painting accessible to younger students without expensive materials.These partnerships reveal an often-overlooked truth: ethical collaboration strengthens the entire creative ecosystem. By recommending original artists' preferred suppliers, maintaining memberships in their groups, and properly crediting their influence, we support multiple small businesses while honoring creative origins. The real magic happens when someone learns something they never thought possible—watching that transformation is why I'm planning a multi-day creative retreat next year in Ohio, bringing together diverse artists to share their unique perspectives in person. Whether you're into wet felting, fiber arts, painting, or sculpture, there's something incredibly powerful about learning directly from passionate creators who want to see you succeed.Ready to explore collaboration in your own creative practice? Reach out to artists you admire, maintain transparency about your intentions, and find ways to ensure they're properly compensated for their knowledge.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Christopher Hill, Founder of Hands Up Holidays. Christopher takes us inside his journey from a career in finance to launching a travel company focused on eco-luxury family volunteer vacations. In our conversation, Christopher shares the story behind Hands Up Holidays, and we discuss the company's focus on family and ethical travel with a holistic approach that ensures each journey leaves a positive impact on local communities and their visitors. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Christopher built Hands Up Holidays by combining luxury travel with meaningful volunteer experiences Why personal interaction with local communities and hands-on volunteering create transformative travel experiences for both guests and host communities How Christopher creates consistency across marketing and delivery How Christopher's business model evolved to focus on families and why inspiring the next generation of world changers has become a core part of his mission Why building strong, direct relationships with local communities and ground partners was essential before launching the business How Hands Up Holidays curates unique, customizable trips that blend giving back with sightseeing and adventure Hands Up Holidays' collaborations with nonprofits, DMCs, travel agents, and brands like TOMS, and why shared values are key to their effective partnerships The Foundation of Responsible Tourism Launching Hands Up Holidays wasn't a matter of spinning up a website and sending travelers abroad. Christopher spent two years building relationships with communities worldwide. He sought firsthand knowledge—not just through professional networks, but by traveling, listening, and consulting directly with prospective partners. His approach was, and still is, to ask communities what they need, ensuring that volunteer efforts are genuinely beneficial and welcomed. Luxury, Family Focus, and Holistic Sustainability Christopher identifies three powerful differentiators that have contributed to Hands Up Holidays' success: Luxury with a Purpose: Targeting high-end travelers with a philanthropy-based model, the company opens doors for those seeking to give back without sacrificing comfort. Hands Up Holidays redefines the luxury experience to include ethical action. Family-Focused Experiences: Although originally aimed at professionals, Hands Up Holidays soon shifted focus to catering to families, especially those eager to foster gratitude and a sense of global citizenship in their children. Holistic Sustainability: Their approach isn't just about volunteering; it encompasses eco-friendly lodging, organic and local food, energy-efficient travel, and exclusively local guides. This creates a well-rounded, responsible travel experience. Collaboration and Alignment Collaboration—with communities, nonprofits, destination management companies (DMCs), and even other travel agencies—is central to Hands Up Holidays' success. Christopher shares examples from major partnerships, like working with TOMS Shoes and a skateboard company to create impactful experiences in South Africa. The key ingredient for successful collaborations is shared values, and Christopher highlights that the most fruitful partnerships arise from aligned missions.

What if doing good, and business isn't in opposition? Ethical fundraising, value-driven sales, and authentic relationships can thrive in the powerful space created by the intersection of doing good and business. In this episode, we explain how viewing money as a tool rather than a corrupting force aligns with purpose-led work.

Whether you are a nonprofit leader or a goal-oriented entrepreneur, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on how to lead with value while still achieving growth. Tamara Jackson is a consultant, advisor, investor, and the founder of Beaconship and LeadReviver™, an advisory and consultancy service.

Send me a messageIn this week's episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I'm bringing you a replay of my conversation with Rhea Rakshit, VP of Product at Sayari. While I'm away on holidays, it felt like the perfect time to revisit one of the most insightful discussions we've had this year, on ESG, supply chain transparency, and the shift from “tick-the-box” CSR to something far more strategic and impactful.Rhea and I unpack how regulation is reshaping corporate behaviour, forcing ESG out of the sidelines and into the core of business strategy. She explains why ownership of ESG can't sit in a silo, it needs cross-functional alignment, from procurement to compliance to operations. A key theme we explore is the balance between scope and scale: start small, win trust, then expand. Trying to boil the ocean from day one is a recipe for inertia.We also dive into what true visibility looks like in supply chains. It's not just about mapping suppliers, it's about tracing to raw materials, exposing risks like forced labour, deforestation, and climate impacts, and most importantly, creating data that is decision-ready. Rhea argues that the real test of ESG isn't reporting, it's remediation. If a supplier is found to be linked to harmful practices, what happens next? Do companies walk away, or work to improve conditions? That's where the real impact lies.We bring in perspectives from the Global South too, where the social dimension of ESG is often most acute, and Rhea shares why, despite the challenges, she's optimistic about the ability of businesses to build resilient, transparent, and ethical supply chains.If you're looking to understand how ESG in supply chains is evolving, from compliance headache to strategic advantage, this episode is well worth your time.Listen now and let me know what you think.#SustainableSupplyChain #ESG #SupplyChainTransparency #ForcedLabour #Deforestation #SustainabilityElevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

Humans have always tried to augment and enhance bodily flaws, from eye glasses to prostheses and pacemakers. But something qualitatively different is happening today. The transhumanist movement basically sees humans as biological algorithms.They want to break into the genetic code and the brain and change what a person is into something else. They believe nature has come as far as it can, and now it is we who drive evolution. We are the ones in charge of creating the next version of Homo Sapiens.“It's a new religion”, says psychologist and philosopher Harald Walach, who has written a comprehensive report about transhumanism.It's a staunchly materialist, godless religion.Seeing the body as a machine and the brain as a computer are metaphors that can be useful in some instances, like when we have had an accident. But it is a category mistake to take these metaphors to be the whole reality.“It's like taking the menu for lunch. You can't eat the menu”, says Harald Walach.A crucial and tricky question is whether the interventions transhumanists envision might mess around with consciousness. Harald distinguishes between psyche and soul.“These interventions can definitely change the mental state of people. But the soul is very likely untouchable.”The transhumanists are a heterogeneous collection of people.“They are various groups with different intentions. Some dedicate their efforts to abolishing death and aging. Some are more on the tech side, connecting human and machine. Others have a more philosophical approach reminiscent of the Nietzschean übermensch.”“A common theme is that they all want to create a transhumanist being with enhanced faculties that are greater than in current humans.”Interestingly, transhumanists aren't particularly good at science.“I don't think many scientists are transhumanistic, because scientists generally know about the intricate problems associated with what transhumanists talk about”, says Harald.“Transhumanists are science fanatics who don't really do science. Many are in the tech industry.”At the core of the transhumanist agenda are medical interventions, in particular genetic manipulation.“We've already seen it happening during the pandemic: Genetic prevention technologies masquerading as vaccines”, says Harald.Was there a nefarious agenda?“That's irrelevant. The thinking, the ideology and the technology were there. As I see it, it is like mushrooms. If you walk in a forest you may not see any mushrooms, but the mycelium is there, under the surface. When the conditions are right, they pop up everywhere.”To materialists, death is the ultimate catastrophe. There are transhumanists, like Aubrey de Grey, who want to abolish it.Ethical and logical objections aside, abolishing death would lead to absurd consequences, Harald points out: The population would quickly increase. By default one would have to prohibit procreation. This in turn would lead to fascistoid governing. Without young people, there would be no new ideas.“Philosophically speaking, life's finiteness creates meaning. If we don't die, we don't need to make any important decisions:, says Harald.He thinks it's imperative that we have an open discussion about the transhumanist agenda now. The proponents are a minority, but they are influential.“We need to ask ourselves: Are we willing to accept a transcendent realm that is beyond our human grip, that we cannot control?”Harald's websiteHarald's Transhumanism report

Summary In this episode of the Develop This Podcast, Dennis Fraise is joined by Eric Canada and Ashley Canada to discuss the importance of AI literacy and its implications for economic development. They explore the origins of their AI workshops, the challenges of understanding AI, and the necessity of starting with personal applications. The conversation delves into effective prompting techniques, tools for engagement, and the ethical considerations surrounding AI usage. They also highlight the future of AI as a significant disruptor and the importance of education in navigating this landscape. The Everyman AI Advantage Tour Takeaways AI literacy is critically low, with only about 5% of users being proficient. Starting with personal applications of AI can ease the learning curve. Effective prompting is essential for maximizing AI responses. AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude serve different purposes and outputs. Organizations need a clear strategy for integrating AI into their operations. Ethical considerations in AI usage are paramount to ensure responsible application. AI presents both opportunities and challenges for economic development organizations. Education and training are vital for adapting to AI advancements. The future of AI will require proactive engagement from all sectors. Workshops can provide hands-on experience and practical knowledge for users.
An AI leadership framework that balances innovation with responsibility is essential for 2025 success, as thought leader Faisal Hoque reveals the groundbreaking OPEN and CARE methodology that helps leaders navigate the complex hybrid world of human-AI collaboration. Bottom Line Up Front: Leaders must become multidisciplinary systems thinkers who can manage both human resources and digital agents simultaneously. The most effective AI leadership framework combines opportunity exploration (OPEN) with catastrophic risk prevention (CARE) to create sustainable AI business strategy that serves humanity while driving innovation. From Human Authenticity to Strategic Implementation: Part 2 of Our AI Leadership Series This is Part 2 of our exclusive two-part interview series with bestselling author and thought leader Faisal Hoque. In Part 1: "Women in Leadership AI: Preserving Human Authenticity While Harnessing Technology", we explored what makes us uniquely human, the importance of leadership authenticity, and how to protect your agency while leveraging AI tools. Now, in Part 2, we dive deep into the practical implementation side: How do you actually build an AI leadership framework that works? Faisal reveals his proprietary OPEN and CARE methodology—a systematic approach to AI governance framework that balances innovation with ethical responsibility. The Hybrid World Reality: Why Traditional Leadership No Longer Works The Death of Process-Performance-Structure Leadership The old leadership paradigm is obsolete. As Hoque explains, "When I started my career, we used to think very much about process performance and organizational structure. Those kind of started to fade away. And we started talking about emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and inspiration and influence." But even that evolution isn't enough for our current AI business strategy demands. Today's leaders face an unprecedented challenge: managing hybrid workforces that include both human employees and AI agents. What Hybrid Leadership Actually Means Most people think "hybrid" refers to remote versus office work. That's wrong. In the context of AI leadership framework development, hybrid means something far more complex: Three Types of Hybrid Leadership: Hybrid Markets: Your customers interact with both human representatives and AI agents (like Netflix's algorithm suggesting your next show) Hybrid Workforce: You manage both human resources and digital resources, working together and sometimes replacing each other Hybrid Leadership Decision-Making: As a leader, you're not just saying "Faisal is going to do this and Sabrina is going to do that"—you're also allocating: "My customer agent is going to do this, and my chatbot is going to do that" The New Leadership Requirements Modern leaders must be both emotionally intelligent AND systems thinkers. This used to be the job of IT or technology people, but that's no longer true. In today's AI governance framework, every leader at every level must understand how people and technology coexist. The CARE Framework: Your AI Ethics Framework for Risk Prevention Why Risk Planning Is Critical in AI Governance Framework Most leaders are not prepared for AI's potential negative consequences. They focus entirely on opportunity while ignoring catastrophic scenarios. The CARE framework forces leaders to think preventatively. CARE: The Four-Step Risk Methodology CARE is also an acronym that ensures responsible AI framework implementation: C - Catastrophize Scenarios Identify the most catastrophic outcomes possible from your AI implementation Consider impacts on employees, customers, and society Think beyond immediate business metrics A - Assess Impact Evaluate ripple effects across your ecosystem Consider job displacement consequences Analyze long-term societal implications R - Risk Mitigation Develop guardrails and governance structures

In this episode of Literally First Class, host Keri Ford discusses the implications of AI on mental health, particularly focusing on the concept of cognitive debt and its effects on decision-making and independent thinking. Drawing from a study by MIT, Keri highlights the cognitive costs associated with AI usage, including reduced neural connectivity and impaired memory. She emphasizes the importance of maintaining critical thinking and independent thought in an increasingly AI-driven world, predicting that true leadership will require a mindful approach to technology. Takeaways: AI can expedite tasks but may cost cognitive function. Cognitive debt refers to the long-term cost of using AI. AI users show reduced neural connectivity and memory recall. The number of daily decisions has increased significantly. Relying on AI can impair critical thinking and decision-making. AI can create a disconnect between output and personal engagement. Ethical concerns arise from AI's influence on expertise. In-person connections will become more valuable in the future. Mindfulness in using AI is crucial for maintaining mental health. Future leaders will need to challenge AI and think independently Episode Resources: Book your free 15-minute Somatic Strategy Call with Jalena (no sales pitch, just a free nervous system audit)!

In this episode, Peter Singer explains why ethics and joy belong together. He offers a moral wake-up call as he shares his now-famous “drowning child” thought experiment: if we saw a child drowning right in front of us, we'd act without hesitation. So why do we so often fail to act when suffering is farther away?Peter challenges the idea that ethics is about rigid rules or self-denial. Instead, he argues that living ethically is a path to a more joyful and meaningful life. This conversation explores how generosity, purpose, and even activities done purely for pleasure—like surfing—can all be part of a good life.Feeling overwhelmed, even by the good things in your life?Check out Overwhelm is Optional — a 4-week email course that helps you feel calmer and more grounded without needing to do less.

No is a powerful word. It can stop a naughty dog in its tracks, it can get you out of a night out with friends when you just want to rot in your bed, and most of all, it's supposed to mean something when you don't want anything to do with someone romantically. Unfortunately for society, some people can't handle being told no. It fills them with unfounded rage because how dare anyone deny them something they want.
