In this episode, Julia Christensen Hughes provides an update on the Global Responsible Leadership Initiative's work and speaks to the challenges and the imperative for business schools to reinvent themselves to meet the demands of a changing world and values. The transactional nature of higher education is pivoting to a transformational approach plugged into the context of large global issues like climate change and biodiversity but changing the orientation will take faculty who are fluent in seeing systems and comfortable with being persistently curious.As President of Yorkville University, Dr. Julia Christensen Hughes plays a ground-breaking role in Canadian higher education, leveraging the full potential of the university's flexible, accessible and exceptionally small class setting to maximize innovation and student success.

Ozlem Brooke Erol recognized from her time with IBM that it wasn't enough to go to work every day without some sense of why - a purpose.

Now she focuses on helping others to do the same.
Today we welcome Brooke Erol. Brooke started her career at IBM following the traditional path she was given to be "successful". She quit her "great job" on paper after 11 years, feeling she is not aligned with it. She started her journey to find her purpose in life. She started her first business in 2003 Your Best Life to help professionals who want to find more meaning at work. After being around so many unhappy people at work, she started her second business Purposeful Business to help leaders grow their businesses without sacrificing the well-being of their people; having a purpose beyond profit. She believes life is too precious to live only for weekends and retirement. She is the author of Create a Life You Love. She is also the co-author of "From Hierarchy to High Performance” that became an International Best Seller in 2018. She speaks and writes about Leadership, Purposeful Life and Purposeful Organizations in the US and abroad. We dive into: - I did all the traditional stuff and arrived at ‘is this it?’ - I wasn’t not happy, and was unfulfilled. How does that work together? - The path(s) we can take to unleash our happiness is finding our purpose, our passion, and deciding to take those paths. - 2 things from Ozlem's research for organizations with purpose and passion: o Great leaders with high EQ is essential o Purpose beyond profit – something bigger is essential - Start paying attention to love, happiness, excitement – write these things down in a journal that you keep for years, because these are your passions and purpose!

She started her journey to find her purpose in life. She started her first business in 2003 YourBestLife to help professionals who don’t like their jobs and want to find more meaning at work.

Hi I'm Cordelia Gaffar, the Emotions Opener Transformation Strategist helping female change makers and entrepreneurs with leaning into difficult emotions so you can show up powerfully! The process to transform your heart so that you can transform your mind is called Replenish Me. It is a complete system of self-nurturing built on nutritional, fitness, scientific and spiritual practices. The steps are Release, Restructure, Refresh and Rebirth 1. Release is Self-compassion and self-forgiveness 2. Restructure is being discipline with habits that support you physically and mentally 3. Refresh is creating firm boundaries and discipline in all your relationships 4. Rebirth is embodying all of it and radiating and attracting what you desire in your life Heather Younger was born to advocate and communicate on behalf of others. I realized early on that many dreams and desires never happen unless we are courageous enough to ask for them consistently and in a compelling way. I also know that some people never have the opportunity to share their voice and are just never invited to have a seat at the decision-making table. I was that person growing up as a kid in a family who shunned me because of my race. My mission is to help organizations give their employees what they want so that those same organizations get what they want in the form of engagement and retention. It has been my experience that organizations are more apt to make poor assumptions about what their employees want. They are screaming to be heard, cared for and want to have a say in what happens to them. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/valuevulnerability/message
Covid—19 has been a crash course in ripple effects, exposing where resilience, and more, has been lost in supply chains, health systems, and credit systems. Things seem brittle, but there are unparalleled opportunities to ‘innovate out' towards a more robust human and economic environment. Covid-19 presents a challenge to executives: roll back to default patterns out of expedience, if you can? Or move to a new order aware of the unpredictability of complex conditions. Some executives will roll back to expediency; others will make more human-centred decisions. This conversation will explore the steps needed to make decisions meeting human needs while shifting performance to a higher level. Speaker: Since 2008 Dawna Jones's podcasts have hosted many of the world's leading transformation thought and practice leaders. Dawna is the author of Decision Making for Dummies, a contributor to The The Intelligence of the Cosmos with Ervin Laszlo, From Hierarchy to High Performance, and Great Work Cultures on HuffPo. Compared by some to another Brené Brown, Dawna's capacity to sense and respond to systems provides novel ways to get past growth constraints and release the full power of the human spirit to serve our world in more generative ways. Dawna Jones's strategic advisory practice delivers deep insights that inspire new shifts and clear direction. As a transformation mentor, Dawna guides leaders and their organizations past their resistance to achieve larger and more human goals.

They still don’t connect the dots” – 10.55 - “One of my goals and purpose is to increase awareness around this in my community. We want to have more conversations around this, but turning these conversations into execution too” – 15.30 - “The ones that have the most bureaucracy, the ones that have so much hierarchy are not nimble enough, they’re not flexible enough, they’re not agile enough to be going through all these changes” – 23.45 - “When you tie what you do on a daily basis to something bigger, it makes a huge shift in peoples minds” – 25.00 - “Vulnerability is to go and follow your passion and dream because you never know if it’s going to work out for you or not” – 31.00 “It’s really the smallest steps that we can all take that make the biggest difference” – 37.10 Brooke can be contacted via the following means: Website - https://humansfirst.club/the-sandiego-experience LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ozlemerol/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/BoErol1 Bio: Brooke O.

When Brooke Erol left her job, family, and country and jumped into the unknown to discover a meaningful purpose, everyone said she was crazy. She was raised to be logical and practical, and this was the opposite! But she could not spend her life struggling to get through Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to celebrate on Friday. Now Brooke helps other people leave their soul-sucking jobs, and face the fear of the unknown, to find work that fulfills them. She also helps companies to realize that work as we know it doesn't work anymore: purposeful, respected workers are happy productive workers.

Well, it's great to see you Dawna. And I'm really quite interested to hear what you got to say. We've got some fantastic topics we're going to talk about today. Dawna Jones 1:12 Thanks, Nate. I'm interested in hearing what I'm going to say! We're gonna have a fun conversation. Nathaniel Schooler 1:22 We are. And, you know, I know, you know a lot about all of these topics, because you've written a best selling best selling book, and some some other books as well. I'm quite interested to hear about the decision making strategy for dummies, because that's quite interesting. Decision making, for me, it causes me a headache. I mean, you know, when I get too much on my brain. I'm going through a lot of stuff, personal stuff as well, and business stuff and working, you know, like people in life, even if you're in your own business, or you're not, if you're working within a corporation, you have so much on your mind. And it can be, it can be sort of almost debilitating with decisions because you you don't know, do you send that email or not, you know! Where do you start with decision making for dummies? Dawna Jones 2:20 Oh, great question. And, you know, it's funny, because when I was writing decision making for dummies, or the proposal for it, I was in California. And in some, like, just, and somebody told me, they asked me that same question. They said:- "What is the key decision making?" And the answer was "self awareness." And I didn't actually pre meditate that answer at all. But I realized that when you're aware of how you're feeling, where you're, what you're thinking, where your focus is going, you know, what's your feeling in terms of overwhelm, or balance or whatever it happens to be, then you can make the decisions that correct the situation so you can actually make the, the optimal decision. So I think it said self aware and contextual awareness, you know, what's going on for me? and what's going on in this environment that's having an impact on me? So it's those two together that kind of have a little bit of a dynamic dance happening. Nathaniel Schooler 3:09 Right, right. I just put one of these massive sweets in my mouth! It got to the point in the afternoon. I just, you know have worked really hard. And, and literally, I just needed a bit of a sugar boost, you know! So with all that said, there are all sorts of different types of decisions that we have to make. Right. And, you know, some of them are going to be more important than others, obviously. But so how do you stop the paralysis of like, just delaying making the decision? How do you how do you stop that in, in in people's minds? Dawna Jones 3:51 Yeah, there's a couple ways of answering that. I mean, generally, what I look at decision making, I'm looking at it through the lens of biology and what an architect recently...
