Podcasts about Flexible

Today we welcome Jeffrey Hull to the podcast. Jeffrey is a highly sought-after facilitator, keynote speaker and executive coach to both nonprofit and for-profit global organizations. He is the Executive Director of the Institute of Coaching, based at McLean Hospital. Jeffrey is also a clinical instructor in psychology at Harvard Medical School and an adjunct professor of leadership at New York University. His latest book is called Flex: The Art and Science of Leadership in a Changing World. In this episode, I talk to Jeffrey Hull about the new landscape of leadership. The world is changing, and alpha leadership is not the only way to manage a team. Jeffrey highlights the importance of beta leadership, a style that values emotion and collaboration. According to him, the most effective leaders know which style to lead with, depending on the situation. In addition to learning other ways of being, Jeffrey believes we need to leverage perspectives from the indigenous and neurodiverse communities. We also touch on the topics of emotional intelligence, coaching, creativity, and authenticity.Website: www.jeffreyhull.comTwitter: @JeffreyHullPhDTopics02:18 The beta boss09:07 Inclusivity in all ways12:50 Flexible communication18:29 Emotional intelligence and vulnerability25:48 Physical energy of being28:27 Engagement: productivity or creativity30:35 Collaboration occurs in safe spaces33:01 Self-coaching37:49 The future of coaching43:46  We all have unique gifts46:40 Dialogue, not disagreement49:08 Age of convergence

In this episode, I talk about being flexible.

Welcome to the seventieth episode of the Lessons from the Cockpit podcast. This one is going to be a little different.   For a long time I've contemplated doing TWO podcasts; the current Lessons from the Cockpit on aviation and another called On the Nation's DIME, looking at current events around the world analysed using The DIME. DIME is an acronymn for Diplomatic, Informational, Military and Economic... the elements of national power our government uses to analyse how powerful or weak a nation state or organization is absed on those four elements. Our government also uses the DIME as a format for creating operations and plans called Flexible Deterrent Options or FDOs to stop potential conflicts from happening or begin movement of troops and material to a region if and when war seems likely. This episode takes a look at current events in North Korea, Russia and Ukraine and potential flexible deterrent options to keep from going to war. This episode of the Lessons from the Cockpit podcast is financially supported by the ook Tanker Pilot: Lessons from the Cockpit found in all four formats on Amazon: hardback, softback, kindle, and audile. The softack version has the pictures in color and kindle and audible have a extra file which downloads with the 32 pictures. Aircraft involved in many of the Flexibble Deterrent Options are available at Wall Pilot, custom aviation art for the walls of your home, office, or hanger. These very detailed aircraft profile illustrations are printed in four, six, and eight foot long prints on vinyl you can peel off and stick to any flat surface. Wall Pilot also creates custom aircraft profiles with your name, unit emlems, tail codes, and weapons loads in the same sizes. These prints are so detailed the AIM-9 Sidewinders have the stenciling and arming T-Handles on the missiles. Go to Wall Pilot and order one or two prints for your walls as this keeps the podcast funded. US Air Force bombbers showing up in your region sends a very clear message to our potential adversaries, particularly when teamed with other nations airpower. This B-1B Lancer is from the 77th Weapons Squadron, part of the US Air Force Weapons School at Nellis AF Nevada. Low observable aircraft like the F-117 deployed to South Korea when Kim il Sung died in 1994 as a deterrent to his son Kim Jung il burying his Dad in Soeul. The F-117s flew missions in and around the Korean Peninsula for three weeks in the summer of 1994. The F-22 Raptor is the best, ar none, air superiority fighter in the world. A squadron of Raptors showing up in your area can e a big deterrent to our adversaries. This F-22 Raptor is from the Hawaii Air National Guard.  Lockheed F-35s from the 388th Fighter Wing at Hill AF Utah are now flying missions in the Middle East, and one of their tasks is defending our Reaper drones from the Russian Air Force SU-27s and Iranian F-4 Phantoms. This F-35 is from the 34th Fighter Squadron "Rude Rams", the first F-35 unit to deploy to the Middle East region.

Flexible bodywork: It's been a big talking point in F1 for years, with the rules technically outlawing it, but the teams forever drawn towards exploiting 'aeroelasticity' for performance gain. On this week's episode of The Race F1 Tech Show, host Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson dig into the subject, ahead of the new technical directive issued to teams by the FIA ahead of the upcoming Singapore Grand Prix. Amongst other things they discuss what the new directive says, what it aims to stamp out, why a certain amount of flexibility in wings and other bodywork is allowed (but others isn't), and who stands to benefit or lose on track. Before that, Gary opines on why we saw a return of porpoising at Monza, and gives his view on the various intra-team on-track battles we saw, having witnessed with many in his own career on the pit wall. And there's also time for Gary to answer another batch of YOUR questions, including ones on part sharing between teams, running repairs, and bespoke engines.

Discover the world of interior design through the lens of Hayley English, a Pasadena-based designer known for her embrace of warm finishes and hand-block printing methods. With a keen eye for patterns, colors, and textures, Hayley crafts inviting spaces that beautifully blend English and French design influences. In this episode, she shares insights on comfortable yet beautiful living environments that maintain their allure while allowing for flexibility, making her approach both sophisticated and practical. She talks about how to find your hero fabric and why she calls paisley her “happy fabric”. Hayley also talks about the surprising aspects of designing in Pasadena, CA, and how to bring that historical element into a modern-day home. What You'll Hear on This Episode: Hayley is a third-generation designer and talks about the influence of having a mom and grandmother with a beautiful design eye. The surprising element of designing in California, especially in Pasadena. If you get stuck, remember that adding antiques and vintage first and then adding those newer pieces is the way to go. Starting with a piece that has a story, such as an antique desk or a vintage side table, is the easiest way to start and then build from there. Not overwhelming a space with too many strong pieces is also very important. Hayley talks about her love of textiles, and what patterns she is digging right now. Are the pattern considerations different when you're thinking about a Roman blind? Tips for choosing the right window treatments. Your needs and wants will change quite frequently, so it's important to design for flexibility. Mentioned in This Episode: Ballard Designs Hayley English Interiors @hayleyenglishinteriors Decorating Dilemma Hi Jordan! First off, we love your creative ideas already, and we applaud your dedication to embarking on home projects - we know they are no small feat. Regarding your question about incorporating accordion doors, it's a fantastic concept. Replacing the one large wall with accordion doors, even if they feature predominantly glass panels, could flood the area with natural light, transforming the atmosphere. Your inclination towards preserving the open feel of the space while maximizing sunlight is commendable. Your thoughtfulness in creating a multifunctional space, rather than just a "man cave," is excellent. Flexible furniture pieces, like a sleeper sofa or nesting tables, offer versatility for various occasions, be it family gatherings or cozy movie nights. The suggestion of built-ins is spot on. Incorporating built-in storage along the TV wall not only maximizes utility but also adds a touch of sophistication. Additionally, echoing design elements and finishes from the main house into this space creates a cohesive and harmonious transition. The idea of leaving the walls crisper for a light-filled ambiance is well-founded. As far as the stairs, a slight lightening of their hue could enhance the overall space. Hayley agrees that investing in quality rugs and textiles is wise. Your instinct for natural materials like wood finishes and pops of burnt orange is fantastic and will indeed contribute warmth and character. Lastly, the Crayola mess-free markers suggestion is a brilliant tip – maintaining a stylish space while accommodating little ones' creativity is a win-win. We can't wait to see what you come up with, and remember to send us updates!

This week's episode is about how to take your Project Weight Loss with you when you travel. I give you three vital strategies to have the success you seek during a vacation or during a business travel. The first strategy is to start off with a commitment to be intentional, whether that is to lose, maintain or gain a little. So for me how it has worked is if I use the majority of these tools, I can see anywhere from a 2 pound loss to five pounds in your 2-3 week vacation. If you just use 2-3 tools you are likely to maintain, if you use at least one of these tools you may gain weight, but it will be in a normal range of around 1 pound and if you don't use any and eat and drink without inhibition, well you are likely to gain anywhere from 2-5 pounds. I offer - have flexible tools for your plan that you can use. Choose a few and think the thought, I will be committed but flexible with how I stay on my plan. We don't change the GPS to reach our destination, the main goal; we can vary the tools being flexible with the how.  And in the end, if you use a handful of the tools I share in this episode you will see a loss on your travel.  And the last strategy is to give yourself grace and if you have grace to spare which you likely will, offer others grace too. Let's keep your Project Weight Loss strong, even when you are out of your element, when you are traveling.(Vacations Can Lead to Weight Gain, Contribute to 'Creeping Obesity', pulled 2023)(When to Set Rigid Goals and When to be Flexible, pulled 2023)Let's go, let's get it done.

 In today's episode, our host Finn is joined by special guest Brett from the nine-figure brand Kizik, known for their game-changing hands-free shoes. We'll dive into Kizik's journey in the shoe industry and their goal of reaching a billion dollars in revenue. But first, we'll take a fascinating look at how Purple disrupted the mattress industry through their goldilocks video campaign and how Kizik employs a similar strategy to revolutionize footwear.

Stay tuned as we uncover the secrets to becoming a household name and disrupting the world of shoes. This episode is brought to you by our sponsors, Sendlane and Rewind. Let's dive in![00:00:00] E-commerce podcast features Bret discussing hands-free shoe.[00:03:25] Workaholic marketer strives to balance work and family.[00:07:11] Changing business goals, growth, challenges, team management.[00:10:52] Prioritize impactful tasks, avoid unnecessary meetings.[00:14:59] Hands-free tech company revolutionizing footwear industry.[00:20:01] From photographer to marketer, learning and growing.[00:25:04] Purple focused on disruptive video content, using humor and long-form videos to stand out in the mattress industry.

Videos and demonstrations helped turn skeptics into believers for Kisick's innovative technology.[00:28:46] Functional footwear brand evolves to be aspirational.[00:34:53] Video first, demonstrating unique Hands Free technology.[00:39:55] Paid social is the biggest contributor (55-60%), followed by YouTube (5%) and paid search (10%).

Our guest, Alex Atwood, has been interested in creating and managing businesses since childhood. And in the last 20 years this serial entrepreneur has created and led 4 startups in the hospitality and staffing space. Today he tells us about how, at the start of COVID-19, he and his staff quickly reinvented their organization and kept workers busy serving as disinfection professionals. He describes his current company, GravyWork, whose app helps people find side gigs or full-time jobs with flexible shifts. Alex is deeply interested in purpose-driven, participative leadership, and he describes his approach to running a company. He cares about transformational growth of the mind, body and spirit, and talks about one of his own side-gigs: coaching. And he touches upon microdosing, a tool he sometimes suggests to coaching clients, to cultivate presence, regulate emotions and promote awareness. For more, see: https://alexatwood.co

On this episode, Dror Poleg delves into the transformative shift in how we perceive and design office spaces. Gone are the days when developers had a clear roadmap for constructing workplaces. Today, with the rise of remote work and the shift of considering 'home' as the baseline, the game is changing. Poleg discusses the uncertainties leaders face, especially as emerging AI technologies stand to reshape the work dynamic even further. A central idea presented is the concept of the office of the future. Not confined by a physical location, it's envisioned as a network. Instead of static places, the focus is on enabling employees to access what they need, whenever and wherever. Poleg presents the idea that while offices will continue to exist, they'll differ in design, accessibility, and financial agreements. He emphasizes the importance of adaptability in future designs, suggesting the ability for spaces to be easily reconfigured, moving beyond furniture adjustments to transforming entire wall structures. The episode also highlights regional distinctions in office dynamics, underscoring differences between places like Austin, Texas, and San Francisco. In a rapidly changing world, Poleg suggests we may not settle on a standardized answer about workspaces for decades to come. Dive in to explore the future of office spaces, understand the contrasts of macro vs. micro views, and see how work environments are perpetually evolving.   Resources Mentioned in this Podcast: Dror on LinkedIn Hype Free website Dror's book Rethinking Real Estate Global Workspace Association Annual Conference   Everything Coworking Featured Resources: Masterclass: 3 Behind-the-Scenes Secrets to Opening a Coworking Space The Everything Coworking Academy Community Manager University Creative Coworking Partnerships: How to negotiate and structure management agreements from the landlord and operator perspective Follow Us on YouTube

Nicole Byars is the founder of Honest Yoga. She's a struggling overachiever turned yoga educator and studio owner. Not to be dramatic or anything - but yoga saved her life. If we rewind a decade you would find her struggling with an eating disorder while balancing first-time motherhood and an unhappy marriage. Yoga was ultimately what got Nicole through that challenging time. She ended up getting her teaching certification, started training other teachers, and built Honest Yoga to be a space for all of us to heal, evolve, grow, and thrive together. In episode 386 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why Nicole chose Arizona State University, what was happening in her life when she was admitted to an eating disorder treatment center in 2007, how trauma informed yoga become her lifeline, what are some ways to slow down and be present, do only flexible people do yoga, are the more difficult yoga positions are better for you, how can you practice yoga while folding laundry, and what are some of the problems with the yoga industry. Enjoy! 

Prepare to have your perceptions of aging, work, and retirement shifted as we explore the profound potential of a 100-year life, inspired by the enlightening Stanford Study on Longevity. We dismantle the outdated notion of aging as a hard stop at 65 and delve into the need for a stage-based understanding of life – one where continual learning and multiple job transitions become the norm.  The New Map of Life project paints a hopeful picture of longevity. It suggests that lengthened lives can lead to transformative societal changes enabling us to redefine life itself – leading to more productive, meaningful, and healthier living at various life stages, not just in the golden years. With age as a significant part of the diversity equation, this conversation emphasizes the critical role of inclusivity in the scope of a 100-year life. We take a hard look at the retirement system and the potential to create return ships for those who've stepped away from the workforce. We also discuss how healthcare redesign can shift from treatment to prevention, building a healthier and more fulfilling life for all. We're confident that you'll walk away with a fresh perspective on the potential of a longer, healthier life and the opportunities it presents for personal growth and societal progress. Buckle up for an enriching and enlightening journey. We'll dive deeper into these concepts: Redefining age and aging: Ages versus stages Flexible life transitions Policy and social structures adapting to longer lives Promoting lifelong learning Age diversity in workplaces Retirement system overhaul Healthcare redesign Inclusion of all social strata Now, for some action steps: Check out the Stanford Study on Longevity To get started on Your Encore journey, sign up for my resource: 5 Key Questions to Ask Yourself if You Want a Successful Mindset My Resources: A quick guide to help you get started on your Encore Journey encorecareermindset.com My Website https://www.lynnfriesth.com/ LinkedIn Facebook Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Discover the powerful impact transitioning to a four-day work week has had at Fellowship House in this conversation with its Executive Director, Pam Orr.  

In a world where readiness for unexpected challenges is crucial, how can leaders foster resilience, inclusivity, and creativity within their teams? This episode explores the importance of putting people first, embracing diversity in the creative sector, and leveraging collaboration during difficult times. You'll also discover insights on finding growth opportunities amid disaster, managing mental health as a leader, and practical lessons on being resilient and flexible in tumultuous times. James Burstall is CEO of Argonon, one of the UK's top international independent production groups. The group is headquartered in London with hubs in New York, Los Angeles, Oklahoma, Liverpool and Glasgow. The group produces shows ranging from The Masked Singer through to iconic current affairs program Dispatches, critically-acclaimed BBC One series Attenborough and the Mammoth Graveyard to much-loved BBC drama Worzel Gummidge. His book The Flexible Method – Prepare to Prosper In The Next Global Crisis offers a practical guide to preparing for a crisis, with unique insights from leaders across the board – including media, health, hospitality, travel and non-profit. James has worked as an executive producer and producer-director for broadcasters all over the world. Prior to his television career, he was a journalist, working as a writer and editor in Paris, London and New York for Vanity Fair, Condé Nast Traveler, HG, Vogue, The Daily Mail and The Evening Standard.   If you enjoy the show, please rate it on Spotify or iTunes. Your ratings help more people like you discover the podcast!   Episode Highlights How James' background as a journalist shaped his values and decision-making as a leader. Making tough decisions that aligned with personal principles even when they conflicted with his organization's. Promoting diversity not just internally but also in how Argonon's business is run. Why promoting diversity matters to James Making the decision to prioritize the health and morale of employees over commercial interests. How managers can insulate employees from common stressors in the creative sector How Argonon orchestrated the transition of a global workforce from in-office to remote in 48 hours. How creating “cobra teams” helped Argonon navigate the early days of the pandemic Embodying kindness as a CEO Striking a balance between being vulnerable and oversharing with employees Tapping into personal support networks during times of crisis How the pandemic has shaped and transformed James' leadership style   James' view on the greatest unmet wellbeing need at work today "Mental health is probably the biggest concern. I think that stress and mental well being is now more acute than ever. And I'm pleased that for example, Prince Harry has talked about mental health among young men. I think that's a really healthy move in the right direction. Because the truth is that it's completely normal and human sometimes not to feel great, or even to get depressed. It happens to us. It's not nice, but it does happen. There are many tools available, and we made those tools available to all our people. We need to make sure that we are listening to our people, that people have a proper recourse, whether it's through HR or through their managers to speak about what they're really feeling. And if they're struggling, we want people to tell us about it, because then we can do something about it together."   What “working with humans” means to James “I loved it when you approached me to have this conversation. Because working with humans is exactly what we do. And that's who we are as an organization. We are all about people. We're all about talent. Argonon wouldn't exist without our people. We don't have loads of machinery…What we have is amazingly creative individuals. And it's when those individuals come together, they create magic. And we create amazing programs, whether it's drama with documentary or reality or entertainment. We've won more than 125 international awards. We entertain millions of people all over the world. And how has that happened? It was because of people coming together in a very supportive, inclusive environment. And when you do that, they create incredible work.”   ©Michael Glazer

In this episode of the Beginner Photography Podcast, I chat with New York City headshot photographer, Rob Tannenbaum. He shared some invaluable insights that every aspiring photographer should take to heart. One of the key takeaways is to be open to exploration and try out different photography styles and techniques. Experimenting will not only help you discover your passion but also enhance your skills and creativity. Another important lesson is the significance of establishing a rapport with your subjects, especially in portrait photography. Building a connection with them allows you to capture their authentic and genuine expressions. Lastly, never be afraid of making mistakes. Learning from them is an essential part of the journey. So grab your camera, embrace your passion, and start shooting! Keep pushing yourself and don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone.

Barring a terminal illness or physician-assisted death, it's very hard to know when you will die. The world changes very quickly, and you do not know what the world will be like at the time of your death. For example, there were no iPhones two decades ago, and now look how technology has evolved. So, to future-proof your plan, you must keep it as flexible as possible. Inheritance plan vs actual circumstances In general, your estate plan will be different from the actual circumstances upon your passing. For example: Your beneficiaries and your executor may be very old or may not be alive. Or, your relationships with them may have changed. Your beneficiary is wealthier than you anticipated and you may not want to leave as much money to them anymore. Your assets have changed. Say you plan to give your nephew 10% of your bitcoin. But, when you pass, your bitcoin is worth way more than you ever imagined. Now that 10% is a pretty hefty chunk of change, and you didn't intend to leave your nephew quite that much. Most people do not have an estate plan at all, and even the ones who have a will or a trust don't update them. Supposedly, 70% of plans are not up to date and 20% of them haven't been updated in 5 years or more. That's a lot of people with ex-girlfriends still named as beneficiaries in their estate plan... But, let's be realistic: if we didn't do estates for a living, we'd probably forget, too! No matter how much you plan for your death, there is a general chaos surrounding the probate process. You don't know who will be alive, who will cause drama, or who will sue the estate because they are upset about how you wrote your will. People think that their heirs and beneficiaries will be cordial, but when money is involved, you never know. Bitcoin evolves quickly Bitcoin is a young asset, and it is still in a very fast evolutionary stage. Bitcoin has gone from your wallet being only available on your own node (if you run core software), to paper wallets where you write or print out your code/seed phrase/key, to HDD, to multisig wallets. And that's just wallets! Now you have second and third layers from Lightning and Arc coming on. There are more people with their own nodes now. Who knows what's next? Will you update with each evolution? Unlikely. So, your plan needs to be able to adapt to the circumstances surrounding your death. Even our Bitcoin podcasts have evolved over the past few years! When to automate? One of the main points in using Bitcoin is to eliminate trusted third-parties and middlemen. In general, automation is best suited for predictable and repeating tasks such as regular billing, social media posts, or other high volume tasks. But there are certain circumstances where it's not wise to use automation. Using automation is a poor choice when the task requires decision-making; it's the opposite of predictable and repeating. You do not want to automate your estate plan. As we discussed above, you do not know what the world or your family tree will be like upon your passing. In traditional, legacy estate plans, beneficiary designations don't work very well. It is a form of automation to say, “Upon my death, everything will go to this person.” Avoiding legal fees and probate sounds great, but you are assuming that your plan will be up to date. You're assuming that the amount in the bank account at the time of your death is the amount you want that beneficiary to get. More often than not, this scenario doesn't shake out the way you hoped. A custodial Bitcoin solution means naming a beneficiary on your Kraken or Binance account. But when automating a non-custodial Bitcoin inheritance plans (like a time-lock, letter of instruction, sharding, etc.), you have frozen in time an inflexible solution for a situation that requires great flexibility. For probate in general, as well as Bitcoin, it is more important to rely on a human executor who can assess the situation and make the appropriate decisions. In probate, the executor may have to deal with a bureaucrat or a government employee who is asking them to do something ridiculous to get the information needed for the estate. You need a human being who can perceive that the instructions are strange and find a way to get the job done. That's the difference from being stuck in a non-flexible system that doesn't have decision making capabilities. In conclusion, your Bitcoin inheritance plan needs to be as flexible as possible to adapt to the evolution of Bitcoin and our ever-changing world. To learn more about probate, check out my book, “How Probate Works,” available on Amazon. It doesn't address Bitcoin specifically, but it can help you understand what's involved in administering an estate. Hopefully soon, I will complete my Bitcoin inheritance book!
