USAP allegedly paid a competitor $9 million to stay out of the Dallas market. A Texas teachers' pension system says it's paying twice the going rate for anesthesia because of it. Joe Rodriguez (Chief Growth Officer, Guide Anesthesia) is joined by Tracy Young (COO, Essential Anesthesia) and Gary Keeling (VP, Anesthesia Services at Coronis Health) to unpack the USAP consolidation fallout, why anesthesia pay works the way it does, and the debt mechanics behind CHG Healthcare's acquisition of Krewe Anesthesia. First: Representative Tom Oliverson's Houston Chronicle testimony and the Texas Teacher Retirement System's claim that USAP charges double the going rate, including the allegation that USAP paid Envision $9 million to stay out of the Dallas market entirely. Tracy makes the business case for what USAP did before making the ethics case against how they did it. Second: why anesthesiologists and CRNAs actually get paid what they get paid, and why "fair" isn't a market principle derived from your length of training. It's derived from what two parties subjectively determine. Third: CHG Healthcare's acquisition of Krewe Anesthesia, traced back through Leonard Green Partners and the collapse of Crozer Health. Tracy breaks down how debt-funded acquisitions work and why the model only survives as long as interest rates stay low. Plus: Joe's three-part fix for what's actually driving healthcare costs, and a listener question on practicing anesthesia in New York. Takeaways: Comparing anesthesia rates to "the market average" is meaningless. Most rates are too compressed to cover the actual cost of staffing anesthesia care. Anesthesiologists and CRNAs get paid what they get paid for one reason: that's what the market is willing to pay. Supply and demand, not sympathy or spin. Fairness is not a market principle, per se. Compensation is only ever what a buyer is willing to pay and a provider is willing to accept. Locums companies are becoming management companies because hospitals want one vendor to own the whole staffing headache, not five vendors to coordinate. Solving healthcare costs at the system level takes three things: real investment in public health, broad coverage delivered privately, and better use of the professionals already in the system.

Tune in here to this Friday’s edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program with Pete Kaliner for this edition of The Hangover as they discuss accountability, institutional failures, and the tendency of leaders to blame “the system” when things go wrong. The conversation begins with a broader debate over whether individuals should be held responsible for their decisions, particularly when serious mistakes cause significant consequences. Brett and Pete contrast modern explanations of systemic failure with an older expectation that leaders would resign after catastrophic mistakes. Later, Brett discusses the ongoing debate over women’s sports and the push to preserve sex-based competition. He argues that the issue is not going away, particularly as more women and families speak out about fairness and opportunities for female athletes. Brett reflects on the progress women have made in sports over generations and says young girls should be able to compete without concerns about being placed at an unfair physical disadvantage.

Isabel und Lukas melden sich erneut live von den Kykladen, mittlerweile schon auf den letzten Metern ihres Urlaubs auf Naxos. Bevor es an die große Reise-Geschichte der Folge geht, gibt's noch eine kleine Generalabrechnung mit der ewigen Frage “Warum tust du dir das eigentlich an?” – ob beim Flohmarkt-Shopping in Mexiko, bei der Gründung eines Unternehmens oder beim Dauerfotografieren im Urlaub. Dazwischen: wie man als drei Familien mit sechs Kindern harmonisch durch einen gemeinsamen Urlaub kommt – inklusive einer Bezahl-Split-App, die sich als echter Urlaubsretter entpuppt hat, plus einem sehr intuitiven Gefühl für Fairness obendrauf. Im Zentrum der Folge steht aber die Geschichte des Tages: die Fahrt zur Mini-Insel Koufonisia, die sie sich statt mit dem 5.000-Euro-Privatspeedboot lieber mit einem alten Fischerkutter und einem charmant verhandelnden Kapitän organisiert haben. Am Ende steht ein windstiller, menschenleerer Strand, den Isabel nur als “James-Bond-Beach” bezeichnen kann – inklusive dem wohl besten Souvlaki ihres Lebens direkt vom Kapitän gegrillt, Steuerrad für die Kinder und einer Insel, die gerade mal vier Quadratkilometer misst. Zum Ausklang gibt's noch eine Frühstücksdiskussion über Loyalität versus rationales Urteilen – und die Feststellung, dass die Griechenland-Liebe der beiden eigentlich gar nicht mehr steigerbar schien. Bis jetzt.

Send us Fan MailOne of the joys of being Mama Dragons is getting to become fierce advocates for our LGBTQ+ children. For many of us that means learning from movement leaders, the torch bearers who rise up each generation to move the needle forward. Most often these are ordinary people with extraordinary courage who stand in the gap between reality and a future where everybody can flourish and say, “This isn't good enough,” and then dedicate their lives to closing that gap. Today In the Den, guest host Shannon sits down with just such a movement leader. Corinne Goodwin is the founder and Executive Director of the Eastern PA Trans Equity Project, which helps transgender people across 42 counties of Pennsylvania change their legal names and receive emergency assistance, and offers peer support groups for trans people and the people who love them. Special Guest: Corinne GoodwinCorinne Goodwin (she/they) is the founder and Executive Director of Eastern PA Trans Equity Project a non-profit organization which has a mission of empowering transgender individuals throughout a 42-County area of Eastern and Central Pennsylvania. An award-winning community leader and in-demand speaker, Corinne actively works on issues impacting the lives of LGBTQ Pennsylvanians. Corinne is a member of the Pennsylvania Governor's Commission on LGBTQ Affairs and was a founding board member of Keystone Equality. As the leader of the Trans Equity Project, she works to advance LGBTQ+ rights in coalition with organizations that include the Human Rights Campaign, Pennsylvania Commission for Fairness & Justice, the ACLU, the Education Law Center, the Pennsylvania Youth Congress and more. Recently retired, Corinne served as a senior executive in the retail and telecommunications sectors, after which she operated her own business consultancy firm for fifteen years. A parent to one son who works in New York's theater industry, she lives in Orefield PA with her wife Debbie, a grumpy cat named April, and a model railroad that takes up way too much space in her basement.

Flo Crivello returns to The Cognitive Revolution to launch Lindy Teammate, an AI employee that lives in Slack, connects to company tools, and accumulates a team's shared context. He argues that multiplayer AI matters because intelligence without context is less useful than an ordinary coworker, and explains Lindy's approach to agentic memory, editable file systems, context buckets, and large-scale tool outputs. The episode also examines the costs and operating realities of building for the next generation of models, from negative gross margins and cache rates to Lindy's own dogfooding in engineering workflows. The stakes are whether AI workers become drop-in teammates, how long humans are still needed to cover model mistakes, and what happens when engineers spend more time managing the machines that do the work.

On today's show (recorded in mid-May), Calvin and Alex explore the Trump administration's recently released national counterterrorism strategy. As a rhetorical artifact, this document offers a revealing window into how this administration frames security threats and who counts as an enemy of the state. And of course, the fact that it was written by would-be cartoon supervillain Sebastian Gorka makes it all the more dark and ridiculous.We first trace the strange evolution of "terrorism" as a category, from its shaky, vibes-based definitions to the wildly different ways it's been deployed across US presidential administrations. We then look at how the strategy document organizes its priorities, who gets named as a threat, and who conspicuously doesn't. We ask what work certain word choices and framings are doing beneath the surface, and what those choices reveal about the coalition of interests this administration is trying to hold together.Along the way, we talk about the document's global scope, from the Middle East to Latin America to Europe, and the throughlines connecting migration, security, and the Trump admin's cultural chauvinism across all three. We also get into the language used to describe newly added domestic “threats” - in particular left-wing, anti-fascist, and other groups that might be construed as enemies of Trump's right-wing government.Text Analyzed in this EpisodeThe White House's “United States Counterterrorism Strategy”Works and Concepts Cited in this Episode:McGee, M.

Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Geraldine Brooks set out to profile a government bureaucrat and found something closer to fiction: Jarod Koopman, a fit, tattooed IRS agent who teaches jiu-jitsu three mornings a week, built his own house (including a wine cellar because he also happens to be a certified sommelier), and has personally helped return billions of dollars to American taxpayers while freeing children from exploitation and dismantling criminal empires hiding behind cryptocurrency. Kelly and Geraldine talk about why Jarod turned down the kind of salary the private sector would gladly pay him, and what it costs a country when talented, mission-driven people walk away from public service. This fifth and final episode of our Unsung series is a conversation about what fairness in America actually requires to survive—and why we should be paying much closer attention to the people making sure it does.
Not that it matters, but sometimes I wonder if the billionaire potentates of artificial intelligence ever wonder why they've become so despised.I doubt it, since introspection doesn't seem to be in the DNA of hubristic AI demigods like Bezos, Musk, and Zuckerberg. Nor are they programming such qualities into their “superintelligent bots.”So, let me help them see themselves. First, today's eruptions of public hatred toward them are not, as they want us to believe, just petty jealousy by people who want to be like them. Really… be like Musk? His ugliness is not just skin-deep – it emanates from his inner core.Such aloof AI profiteers have sparked a nationwide prairie fire of anger by plundering local water supplies, farmland, electric power, and tax subsidies. They're callously treating our communities as nothing more than a series of financial transactions for them to be consummate. But people's rebellion is not merely about monetary prices and property. Fundamentally, it's fueled by corporate elites' total disregard for the basic human value of Fairness.Even pre-school children comprehend the moral implication of “That's not fair!” The corporate gold rush to an AI future is not about the mystical possibilities of technology, but old-fashioned greed – moneyed elites grabbing more profits and control. And there's nothing fair about either.The spreading rebellion against AI arrogance is raising a politically explosive moral question: “Who the Hell elected you selfish screw-ups to dictate our future?” Musk & Co. say they don't even believe in democracy, so why would We the People let them remake society in their totalitarian image? To join your local rebellion, go to jimhightower.com/datacenters.Do something!There are more and more groups forming around the country to fight this exploitation— so many that we're having a hard time keeping track of them all! Here are a few hubs that will help you find your way to join the rebellion:* Data Center Opposition Report: A regularly-published comprehensive report on the numbers of fights out there, with case studies for inspiration* The Stop Data Centers Coalition has a list of member organizations who are calling for a national data center moratorium* The Coalition for Responsible Data Center Development, a Minnesota based organization, has published a map of Facebook groups all over the country fighting data centers* One of our top go-to resources are the toolkits that MediaJustice has created* Kairos Fellowship also has a slew of guides and is developing a hotline that local groups can call for advice.

Send us Fan MailMargot Patterson talks to Robin Andersen, professor emerita of communications at Fordham University, about Andersen's new book, The Complicit Lens: U.S. Media Coverage of the Genocide in Gaza. In it, Andersen writes that the mainstream media in the United States abandoned journalistic standards of accuracy and impartiality in its coverage of events following the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks on Israel. Recycling Israeli talking points without adequate scrutiny, U.S. legacy media became stenographers of genocide, she asserts.Andersen is on the Board of Directors of Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting, (FAIR), for which she writes regularly. She is the author, or co-author, of a dozen books, including A Century of Media, A Century of War, for which she won th the Alpha Sigma Nu Book Award.

When Chiron entered Taurus in June we named a new era of healing work beginning — the wounds of body, earth, and resource. But Chiron is not yet fully committed to Taurus. It is turning back to complete what was not yet fully metabolized in Aries since 2018. The wounds of identity, agency, the right to exist and take up space. The armored individualism that mistakes isolation for strength.This retrograde is not a setback. It is a deepening. And Chiron does not return to Aries empty-handed. It has touched Taurus, briefly, but genuinely. The wounds of scarcity, of distorted relationship to resource and embodied worth, are now being carried back into the Aries review. What would it mean to act and assert from a place of genuine embodied sufficiency rather than the chronic survival-level scarcity that dominator culture has installed in so many? The two wound territories are informing each other through the retrograde.You might notice this as a revisiting of something you thought you had moved through. Let it be a compassionate return rather than a discouraging one. The Shamanic tradition knows that the deepest healing rarely happens in a single pass.Thursday, August 6: Venus enters Libra. Sun in Leo trines Saturn in Aries. Venus moves into her home sign, where she will remain for just over a month. After Virgo's careful discernment, Venus in Libra breathes into the relational field with greater ease and natural grace. Beauty as a value. Fairness as a felt sense. The recognition that relationship at its best is a genuine art form.On the same day the Sun in Leo trines Saturn in Aries. Creative expression meets honest reality. What has been alive and expansive in Leo season finds the grounded commitment that gives it genuine form and staying power. A good day for clear-eyed recognition of what is genuinely sustainable and worth building further.Sunday, August 9: Mercury enters Leo, remaining about two and a half weeks. Mercury in Leo squares Chiron in Taurus. Mercury moves from Cancer's careful feeling-toned interior processing into Leo's warmth and creative conviction. The Communicator now speaks from the center rather than the periphery. More direct, more vital, more willing to be seen in what it knows.On the same day Mercury squares Chiron freshly retrograded toward Aries. Where has the voice been shaped by survival rather than authentic expression? Where has it learned to be smaller or more deferential than what is actually true? You might notice something you want to say meeting an old hesitation you did not know was still there. Stay curious about that hesitation. It may be pointing to exactly where the voice is ready to grow.Looking AheadNext week Venus in Libra activates the air planets, moving toward opposition with Saturn and Neptune in Aries and making contact with Pluto in Aquarius and Uranus in Gemini. Mercury in Leo activates the fire planets, trining Saturn and Neptune in Aries and moving through Jupiter in Leo. Let what this week offers be genuinely received before the next wave of activation arrives.Reflection QuestionsAs Chiron retrogrades back into Aries, what wound around identity, agency, or the right to take up space is asking for one more honest and compassionate look?Venus entering Libra invites genuine relational intelligence. Where in your relational field is the cultivation of real balance and right relation most needed right now?Where does the wound around speaking from genuine conviction still shape your voice, and what wants to be said that has not yet found its full expression?If the depth of these cycles is stirring something in you, a desire for grounded support in understanding how they are moving through your own unique chart, I offer astrology sessions designed for exactly that.You can find the link to schedule under What's Open Now at Sheila's website: ontheedgesofchange.com.Support the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.comThis episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

Het internet is kwetsbaarder dan je misschien denkt; één programmeur liet al een keer een deel van het internet crashen, waar giganten als Netflix en Spotify last van hadden. In deze aflevering laat softwareonderzoeker Ayushi Rastogi (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen) je de wereld zien achter de apps en websites die jij elke dag gebruikt. Daar wordt namelijk wereldwijd aan gebouwd en gaat niet alleen over techniek, maar vooral ook over menselijk vertrouwen. Dat maakt het internet krachtig, maar is ook haar zwakte. Ayushi onderzoekt hoe we dat internet in de toekomst betrouwbaar en eerlijk voor iedereen houden. Want in een tijd waarin AI razendsnel nieuwe code genereert, maar ook onvoorspelbare fouten maakt, is dat één van de belangrijke vragen van deze tijd. Omdat veel wetenschappers die in Nederland werken Engels spreken, maar we hun onderzoek ook willen laten zien, hebben we voor het eerst in lange tijd een aflevering die deels in het Engels is. Voor wie toch liever in het Nederlands luistert, is dit de link naar de nagesynchroniseerde versie op YouTube: https://youtu.be/G1W-at8UFns. 0:00 Kan één iemand het hele internet laten crashen?0:54 Wat is het internet?1:19 Hoe werkt programmeertaal?1:46 Wie werkt er aan het internet?1:53 Hoe werkt open source software?2:26 Wat gebeurt er als een programmeur bepaalde codes weghaalt?3:48 Kunnen programmeurs niet elke keer zelf hun code schrijven?4:38 Wat zijn gate keepers in programmeren?5:16 Wat gebeurde er tijdens de laatste grote wereldwijde IT-storing?6:01 Wat is het Blue Screen of Death (BSoD)?6:10 Waarom maakt het uit wie software ontwikkelt?7:15 Waarom is er ongelijkheid tussen mannelijke en vrouwelijke ontwikkelaars?8:08 Wat gebeurt er als AI onze codes gaat schrijven?

Könnt ihr euch noch an die sehr große Diskussion über Milchpreise erinnern, die wir vor ein paar Jahren hatten? Damals ging es darum, dass Bäuerinnen und Bauern nicht von ihrer Arbeit leben können, weil sie ihre Milch nicht zu einem Preis an die Molkereien verkaufen können, der ihre tatsächlichen Produktionskosten deckt. Dieses Problem haben nicht nur Landwirt:innen in Deutschland, sondern weltweit. Auf EU-Ebene gibt es die sogenannte UTP-Richtlinie, die unfaire Handelspraktiken in der Agrarlieferkette regulieren soll. Sie gilt, wenn einer der beiden Handelspartner (also der Landwirt oder der Einkäufer) in der EU ihren Sitz haben. So ist es zum Beispiel verboten, Aufträge sehr kurzfristig zu stornieren. Diese Richtlinie wird aktuell von der EU überarbeitet. Fairtrade will diese Gelegenheit nutzen und richtet sich deshalb mit einem Appell an unseren Landwirtschaftsminister Alois Rainer. Sie fordern, dass Rainer sich bei der Reform der UTP-Richtlinie für die Aufnahme der Zahlung von Preisen unterhalb der Kostendeckung auf schwarze Liste einsetzen soll. Welche Folgen das hätte, das erklärt Claudia Brück im Interview. Sie ist Vorständin für Politik und Kommunikation bei Fairtrade Deutschland. Den Appell zum Unterschreiben findet ihr hier: https://www.openpetition.de/petition/online/landwirtschaft-braucht-fairness Wenn ihr Lust habt, euer Geld ganz konkret in Projekte mit Mehrwert bei bettervest zu investieren, dann nutzt gerne meinen Code FAIRQUATSCHT25.

The episode begins with A-King recapping his first experience attending Fanatics Fest at New York City's Javits Center, sharing his impressions of one of the biggest sports and collectibles events of the year [ 00:50 ]. The crew reflects on celebrity encounters with New York Knicks players, Spike Lee, Ryan Clark, Terence Crawford, and other notable figures [ 01:43 ], while discussing standout sponsor activations and brand partnerships throughout the convention [ 03:05 ]. A debate follows over a photo opportunity involving Terence Crawford, leading into a broader conversation about celebrity interactions, optics, and fan expectations [ 06:02 ]. The discussion then pivots to the controversy surrounding Toast on Lenox after the popular Atlanta restaurant posted a smiling photo with Georgia Republican gubernatorial candidate Rick Jackson, sparking accusations of political endorsement [ 07:51 ]. The hosts examine whether taking a photo with a politician automatically signals support, while debating the importance of political due diligence, transparency, and how quickly public perception can shape online narratives. They also unpack the unintended consequences of boycotts targeting Black-owned businesses, discussing the ripple effects on employees, customers, and local communities [ 14:15 ]. Returning to Fanatics Fest, the crew reacts to the viral moment in which Tom Brady appeared to slap Logan Paul, questioning whether the exchange was genuine or carefully orchestrated entertainment [ 27:59 ]. That conversation evolves into a discussion about kayfabe, wrestling culture, and influencer-driven publicity stunts [ 29:16 ], before examining how the Paul brothers have mastered content creation and viral marketing [ 31:53 ]. They continue breaking down the Brady-Paul moment [ 33:22 ], while sharing lighter conversations about professional wrestling fandom, celebrity crushes, tequila, and the overall culture surrounding Fanatics Fest [ 34:12 ][ 35:18 ]. The final segment turns toward one of the week's most polarizing topics as the hosts react to the Combs twins launching a clothing line while publicly supporting their incarcerated father, Sean "Diddy" Combs [ 38:02 ]. The conversation explores the difficult balance between family loyalty and personal accountability, questioning how loved ones navigate public support during serious legal controversies [ 40:40 ]. The discussion continues after DJ Webstar reveals that Cassie unfollowed him following his decision to write a character letter on Diddy's behalf, prompting a broader debate about whether friends should publicly defend individuals accused of abuse [ 49:58 ]. The episode concludes with a thoughtful conversation about domestic violence, self-defense, accountability, and the responsibilities that come with using one's platform during sensitive situations [ 56:43 ], before wrapping up with the team's closing reflections and final thoughts [ 01:07:17 ]. Balancing humor, cultural commentary, and nuanced discussion, this bonus episode tackles the complex intersections of celebrity, politics, business, and personal responsibility.

THE Leadership Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
We collect leadership ideas from everywhere: books, training courses, articles, mentors, bosses, colleagues and the occasional painful lesson delivered by experience. The problem is that we rarely collect these ideas in one place. They arrive randomly over many years, and we forget more than we retain. We may recognise a useful principle when we hear it, nod wisely and then promptly return to doing exactly what we were doing before. Here are seven leadership principles we already know but probably need to remember. In Part Two, we will continue with principles eight through sixteen. Should Leaders Focus on Strengths or Weaknesses? The first step towards leadership success is identifying your strengths and deliberately building on them. That is not what most of us do, though, is it? We usually focus on what we are doing badly. We replay mistakes, analyse weaknesses and beat ourselves up because we are not perfect. All of that keeps us looking backwards. Naturally, leaders cannot ignore weaknesses that are hurting the team or damaging results. However, leadership development should not become an endless repair job. We also need to ask where we already perform well and how we can create even more value from those capabilities. Perhaps you are good at setting direction, developing people, winning trust, communicating through uncertainty or making tough decisions. These strengths are leadership assets. Use them consciously rather than treating them as accidental. Do now: Write down your three strongest leadership capabilities and decide where you will apply each one more deliberately. What Really Builds Trust in Leadership? Trust is built when leaders are fair, keep their promises and do the right thing even when nobody would blame them for taking the easier option. Communication is built on trusting relationships, but what actually creates that trust? Fairness is a major part of it. Employees, vendors and clients are always watching how we behave when pressure, money and competing interests enter the picture. During the COVID period, we had access to international pricing for one of our training programmes. That price was higher than what we normally charged locally. We could easily have taken the extra money, and in those very straitened times, the cash would have been welcome. But where is the trust if we do that? Trust also means doing what you say you will do, when you say you will do it and in the way you promised. That sounds easy. It is not. Busy schedules, shifting priorities and unexpected problems all get in the way. Regardless, leaders have to keep their eyes on integrity and follow their true-north values. Do now: Review the commitments you have made recently. Is there anything you promised but have not yet delivered? Can a Leader Force Employees to Be Motivated? Motivation cannot be forced. People have to want to do a good job, and the leader's role is to help create the conditions for that motivation. Imagine a cartoon boss screaming, "Be motivated! Be motivated! Be motivated!" so loudly that the employees' hair is blowing backwards. Ridiculous, obviously. Yet many managers are not doing anything much more sophisticated. They push harder, repeat the target, add pressure and wonder why people are not suddenly overflowing with enthusiasm. A better starting point is alignment. What does the individual value? What does the enterprise value? Where can those interests connect? One employee may want advancement. Another may want recognition, professional mastery, security, flexibility or the chance to work on something meaningful. Leaders need to understand those individual motivations and help employees see how strong performance can move them towards their own goals. Here is the million-dollar question: do you know the goals and values of each staff member? And do you keep checking? Goals change. Do now: Ask each person what they most want to achieve professionally over the next twelve months. Why Must a Leader's Interest in People Be Genuine? Genuine interest strengthens relationships because people can quickly detect the difference between real curiosity and fake friendliness. The key word is "genuine". This is not about pretending to care because you want something. It is not a technique to secure cooperation, win a sale or encourage someone to work harder. We have all seen the opposite. Someone is charming while they expect a generous tip and then looks visibly disappointed when the amount is not sufficient. In Japan, there is also the eigyo smile—the fake "sales smile" used to help win business. The mouth is smiling, but the rest of the person is not involved. Leaders make the same mistake when they ask polite questions while clearly waiting for their turn to talk. People are fascinating. When we show pure curiosity, we learn far more about their experiences, concerns, motivations and ambitions. They also sense that the interaction is genuine. As leaders, let's be curious. Do now: Ask someone a question today simply because you are interested in the answer, not because you need anything from them. Why Is Empathy Essential for Modern Leaders? Empathy helps leaders understand the world affecting another person instead of judging everything from inside their own world. Deadlines, targets, quotas, emails, bills and endless meetings—the rough and tumble of business is relentless. It is easy to become completely consumed by our own pressures. When that happens, we forget that everyone around us is dealing with a different set of circumstances. I once watched a company owner networking vigorously at an event. Another guest made a snide comment about what the owner was doing. Maybe that guest sailed through the pandemic completely unscathed. The company owner, however, had been clinging on by the fingernails. The networking was not vanity or attention-seeking. It was an attempt to keep the business alive. That is what happens when we focus entirely on ourselves. We judge visible behaviour without understanding the invisible circumstances behind it. For leaders, that is a disaster. This is especially true when talented employees can easily jump ship if they do not feel they are being understood or looked after. Empathy is not an occasional activity. As leaders, we had better become empathetic if we want to succeed in modern business. Do now: Before criticising someone's attitude or performance, ask what may be happening that you do not yet understand. Why Are Good Listeners So Persuasive? Nobody is more persuasive than a good listener because people are far more open to someone who makes them feel heard and valued. This sounds counterintuitive, doesn't it? We often imagine persuasion as having the gift of the gab, controlling the conversation, steering the content and driving forward through sheer force of will. In practice, this often means finishing other people's sentences, cutting them off or jumping in with our genius contribution before they have completed their point. This behaviour is so common that when someone actually shuts up and lets us talk, we feel liberated. We feel energised. We feel valued. We like that person. We also become more positive about who they are, what they have to say and what they want us to consider. Introverts, in particular, often respond well when they are given enough space to think and speak without being steamrolled. So, if you want people to listen to you as a leader, first let them do the talking. Do now: In your next conversation, do not interrupt. Let the person finish, pause and then ask a follow-up question. Why Are Team Players the Leaders of Tomorrow? Tomorrow's leaders will succeed through creativity, critical thinking and collaboration rather than trying to dominate everything through personal force of will. The three Cs—creativity, critical thinking and collaboration—are becoming increasingly important. Collaboration is the relatively new arrival. When I was growing up in business, Jack Welch was the dominant leadership role model. The popular image was of a tough leader driving results through force of personality, pushing subordinates hard and casting overboard anyone who did not measure up. It was a Darwinian struggle producing zero-sum outcomes. Today's business environment is different. No leader can personally master every market, technology, customer expectation, regulatory risk and operational problem. The winning formula is the ability to tap into the collective intellect, energy and commitment of the whole team. I can see this weakness in myself. I now tell my son he should not think he has to do everything alone, as I did. He should seek support, mentors and collaborators. I wish I had been smarter about this rather than following the path of the hairy-chested individual trying to do everything independently. I have been a notoriously slow learner. Do now: Choose one important problem you are carrying alone and bring other capable people into the discussion. Which Leadership Principles Matter Most? Leadership improves when we consistently apply familiar principles rather than endlessly searching for fashionable new theories. Know your strengths and build on them. Be fair and protect trust. Understand what motivates each individual rather than attempting to force motivation upon them. Take a genuine interest in people. Step outside your own world and practise empathy. Listen before trying to persuade. Finally, stop believing that strong leadership means doing everything alone. Collaboration is not a sign of weakness. It is how leaders gain access to the full intelligence and commitment of the team. We know these principles. The real challenge is remembering to apply them when we are busy, under pressure and tempted to return to old habits. In Part Two, we will continue with principles eight through sixteen.

What does "right to work" actually mean and who does it really benefit? In this episode of Advocacy Bites, hosts Renée Sekel and Susan Book continue their series breaking down North Carolina's proposed constitutional amendments by tackling one of the most misunderstood issues in state politics: the proposed Right-to-Work constitutional amendment. Many North Carolinians assume "right to work" protects workers from being fired. In reality, the policy centers on labor unions, collective bargaining, and workplace rights. Renée and Susan unpack the history of right-to-work laws, explain how they affect union membership, wages, and worker protections, and explore why lawmakers want to move an existing state law into the North Carolina Constitution.

I don't have a good answer for you. I'm starting to think the parable doesn't want me to have one. This story won't let us pull the weeds, and it won't let us pretend the weeds don't matter. It won't let us play executioner, and it won't let us bless a field where a man can be shot on his way to work and written off as some kind of invasive contaminant. This story hands us both of those refusals, and then it just stops. Let both grow together until the harvest. God says, “You let me worry about it.” Subscribe to us on iTunes!

Howard Robertson had every reason to go down the wrong path. His parents died. His siblings were in the streets. But instead of following them he chose corrections — and over a 22 year career from the late 1970s to the early 2000s he rose from correctional officer to captain to deputy warden to warden of Rikers Island — the largest and most violent jail in America. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Howard pulls back the curtain on everything — from his brutal upbringing to what made him choose corrections to what Rikers Island looked like from the inside during its most violent era to the notorious inmates he encountered to how programs reduced violence to how politicians destroyed what it could have been to the problems with closing it and what the future of Rikers Island really looks like. _____________________________________________ #rikersisland #jail #truecrimestories _____________________________________________ Thank you to FACTOR & GLD for sponsoring this episode: Factor: Head to http://factormeals.com/lockedin50off and use code lockedin50off to get 50 percent off and free daily greens per box, with new subscription only, while supplies last until 09/27/2026.

In today's discussion with veteran media historian and critic Robin Andersen, we discuss in depth the ways that the New York Times, CNN, and other legacy media outlets became little more than Israeli propaganda organs, uncritically feeding IDF narratives, images, and self-declared expertise while not only discrediting Palestinian voices, but also becoming complicit with Israel's policy of censorship by murder. We talk about the distortions and lies surrounding the destruction of hospitals, patients and medical staff, the purposeful killings of journalists and the cover-ups that followed, and the media attacks on the student encampments that turned peaceful demonstrations into scenes of violence. We come away with a profound respect and admiration for courageous and dedicated Palestinian journalists, the global social media that bore witness, and independent and alternative media that stood steady in their commitment to speak the truth.Robin Andersen, professor emerita of media studies at Fordham University, author of a dozen books, and writer and member of the Board of Directors for Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR). She serves as a judge and contributing writer for Project Censored, and her work can be found at a number of online publications. Her latest book is The Complicit Lens: US Media Coverage of Israel's Genocide in Gaza.

They're still responsible.” Callie Zauner (00:05:56)“The clear door on cabinets is very important because the anxiety of not being able to see your device is something the students talked a lot about.” Callie Zauner (00:08:49)“Policies sound great, but then there are other layers to it.

Are you exhausted even after a good night's sleep? That heavy, can't-shake-it feeling might be burnout, and it always has a source.Burnout is one of the biggest challenges facing workplaces today, and Steph breaks down exactly why it happens. Drawing on her background in clinical practice and coaching, she walks through the six drivers behind burnout: workload, control, reward, community, fairness, and values alignment. Steph explains how each of these shows up in subtle, everyday ways, and why naming the root cause matters more than just pushing through. This episode lays the groundwork for the recovery strategies she'll share next, because you can't fix what you haven't named.In this episode you'll discover:Why workload is about sustainability and type of work, not just quantityHow control and agency over your work fuel motivationWhy community, fairness, and values alignment matter as much as workload and rewardYour takeaways:Burnout is a significant issue affecting individuals across every kind of organizationRecognizing the subtle ways burnout shows up is the first step toward changeEvery case of burnout has a root cause, and finding it is essential for real recoveryChapters00:00 Understanding Burnout: An Introduction02:47 The Six Drivers of Burnout04:26 Driver 1: Workload and Its Impact07:58 Driver 2: Control and Agency09:41 Driver 3: The Importance of Reward10:48 Driver 4: Community and Connection11:45 Driver 5: Fairness in the Workplace14:38 Driver 6: Values Alignment and Its Significance18:22 Finding the Root Cause of Burnout19:08 Looking Ahead: Solutions for BurnoutTake the Impact Scorecard: impactreadyquiz.com
For years, conversations about gender equity at work have been framed as a women's issue. But what if that's the wrong conversation entirely? What if the real challenge isn't fixing women so they can survive outdated systems—but fixing the systems themselves? In this episode, Nicole sits down with Dr. David Smith and Dr. Brad Johnson, co-authors of Fair Share: How Men and Women Can Create a More Equitable Workplace Together, to unpack what true gender fairness looks like in today's workplace. Together, they explore why gender equity benefits everyone, how outdated workplace norms are hurting both women and men, and what leaders can do to create workplaces where people can thrive professionally and personally. This conversation challenges zero-sum thinking, dismantles harmful workplace myths, and offers practical strategies for building more equitable organizations—without pitting one gender against another. In This Episode We Discuss: What gender fairness actually means—and why it's not the same as treating everyone exactly the same Why gender equity benefits men, women, organizations, and families The myth that gender fairness requires men to lose in order for women to win Why workplace equity is a leadership responsibility, not a women's initiative How caregiving expectations impact career advancement for both women and men Why flexibility, caregiving support, and pay transparency matter The role leaders play in creating inclusive and equitable workplaces Gender fairness isn't about giving one group an advantage—it's about creating workplaces that reflect how people actually live, work, lead, and care today. When organizations stop trying to fix individuals and start fixing outdated systems, everyone benefits. Thank you to our sponsors!
