How Consistent Values Drive Unforgettable Service Shep interviews Cheryl Christensen, Sr. Vice President of Operations at Gathering Place. She talks about her journey from frontline roles to leadership at Disney and the impact of culture, service, and growth opportunities. This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more: What is the best way to handle customer outreach after a bad experience? What three job responsibilities should every employee in a service company share? How does servant leadership boost employee engagement and retention? How can companies turn customer complaints into operational improvement? What is the best way to handle customer outreach after a bad experience? Top Takeaways: Every job, even the simplest ones like bussing tables or cleaning up, can help build leadership skills. Every workplace is a place to grow. When employees are given opportunities to contribute, develop new skills, and take on challenges, a temporary job can become the beginning of a bigger career. Every employee should be empowered to do the job they were hired to do, take care of the guests or the customers, and pay attention to what needs to be done around them. Great experiences are not the responsibility of one department. When employees consistently take ownership beyond their immediate tasks, service becomes part of the culture rather than something confined to the customer support department. A complaint is an opportunity to improve the experience. Responding directly, acknowledging the customer's frustration, explaining what happened, and finding a way to repair the relationship, like inviting them back, can turn a negative experience into a positive one. The most valuable feedback does not have to come from a formal survey. Sometimes, it comes from employees who work with customers every day and see what delights or frustrates them. Collecting this feedback can help create insights that turn into actions that can improve customer experience. Leaders who notice employees' talents and give them new challenges help create a place where people want to stay. Because growth is one of the most important things that keeps employees motivated, leaders need to provide an environment where employees feel they can learn new skills and will be rewarded for their effort. Plus, Shep and Cheryl share customer service stories from her 37-year career journey at Disney and her current role at Gathering Place. Tune in! Quote: "Get hooked on your organization's magic. When your skills are recognized, and you're placed in roles where you can truly contribute, it creates meaning for you and the company. Always look for new ways to contribute and go beyond your basic role." About: Cheryl Christensen is the Sr. Vice President of Operations at Gathering Place. She had a 37-year career with the Disneyland Resort, where she held leadership positions in Operations and Human Resources. Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio. Learn more about your ad choices.

What happens when a patient can't communicate with the team caring for them? On this episode of the Elevate Care podcast, host Christin Stanford talks with Erin Dougherty Cieszynski, Manager of Guest Relations and Patient Experience at Main Line Health, about what language access looks like once a policy meets a patient in an exam room. This conversation is part two of a series with Main Line Health, following a leadership-level discussion on operational strategy with Suzanne Smith. Check out part one! Erin brings over 12 years of patient advocacy experience to a conversation grounded in real moments from the floor: emergency department visits, registration desks, and the quiet handoffs between nurse, patient, and family. She walks through how Main Line Health moved from reactive interpreter use to automatic activation, why a universal sign-on changed adoption rates among clinicians, and how something as simple as a badge buddy can close a communication gap before it becomes a safety risk. Erin also shares how an ASL interpreter helped identify a hearing-impaired patient as a victim of human trafficking, connecting the dots between language access, patient safety, and trust. Throughout, she reframes language services as a driver of stronger patient outcomes, better satisfaction scores, and increased community referrals, not just a regulatory requirement. Key Takeaways Language access should be automatic at the start of care, not a last resort. Reducing friction through universal app sign-on, badge buddies, and dual handsets drives faster clinician adoption. Patients who feel heard are more likely to return, refer others, and engage in preventive care. Language access touches the entire patient journey, from registration through discharge and follow-up. Strong interpreter access supports both patient safety and staff satisfaction. Health systems should expect deeper digital integration and a shift toward population-mapped language access strategy. Chapters 00:00 – Introduction to Language Access and Patient Experience 01:39 – Erin's Role in Guest Relations at Main Line Health 02:06 – Where Language Access Shows Up Most for Patients 03:05 – Why Communication Is the Foundation of Quality Care 04:42 – Closing the Gap Between Policy and Frontline Reality 05:38 – What Good Language Access Looks Like on the Floor 07:09 – How Providers Use Interpreter Services Under Pressure 08:30 – Building Adoption Across Clinical Teams 09:35 – Feedback That Shaped a Better Program 11:04 – Adapting Language Access to Rising Patient Volumes 12:00 – Connecting Language Access to Referrals and Revenue 13:07 – A Story of Language Access Saving a Life 16:40 – The Link Between Language Barriers and Preventive Care 18:09 – Small Changes with Outsized Impact 19:17 – Where Communication Breakdowns Still Happen 20:51 – Advice for Healthcare Leaders 21:49 – The Next Five Years of Language Access Meet Erin Dougherty Cieszynski Erin Dougherty Cieszynski works across the full continuum of care to help patients navigate the healthcare system, understand their treatment, and feel confident their voices are being heard. Known for her empathy and ability to bridge the gap between clinical teams and the patients they serve, Erin has led efforts at Main Line Health to expand interpreter access, streamline technology adoption among clinicians, and connect language access directly to patient safety and satisfaction outcomes.

In this episode of the First Responder Wellness Podcast, host Conrad Weaver sits down with Casey Burley, a recovery advocate and Narcan trainer who has been in recovery since September 14, 2011. Casey's story is not a tidy redemption arc. It is raw, honest, and deeply relevant to every first responder who has ever wondered whether the people they keep encountering on their worst calls are capable of change. Casey takes us through her journey from early drug use at age 16 — starting with meth — through years of incarceration, to a treatment program where one counselor's relentless belief in her became the turning point that changed everything. She talks about what recovery housing actually looks like, why isolation is one of the most dangerous forces in addiction, and what it feels like to respond to overdoses and deaths in the same community you once nearly left permanently. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why Casey says people in recovery are not a lost cause — and what first responders need to see to believe it The reality of fentanyl and carfentanil in every drug on the street today, and why everyone needs to know how to use Narcan What happens inside a recovery home after someone dies — and the quiet, careful work Casey does for the family left behind How self-labeling as an addict is just as destructive as being labeled by others, and how that changes in recovery A direct challenge to first responders: come to a recovery event and see the people who are making it This episode is for first responders, law enforcement officers, counselors, recovery workers, families of people struggling with addiction, and anyone who has ever wondered whether it is worth fighting for someone who keeps falling down. The answer Casey gives is yes. Every time. Because somebody fought for her — and she never forgot it.

Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than a rich man who is perverse in his speech and is a [self-confident] fool. 2 Desire without knowledge is not good, and to be overhasty is to sin and miss the mark. 3 The foolishness of man subverts his way [ruins his affairs]; then his heart is resentful and frets against the Lord. 4 Wealth makes many friends, but the poor man is avoided by his neighbor. 5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he who breathes out lies shall not escape. 6 Many will entreat the favor of a liberal man, and every man is a friend to him who gives gifts. 7 All the brothers of a poor man detest him—how much more do his friends go far from him! He pursues them with words, but they are gone. 8 He who gains Wisdom loves his own life; he who keeps understanding shall prosper and find good. 9 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he who breathes forth lies shall perish. 10 Luxury is not fitting for a [self-confident] fool—much less for a slave to rule over princes. 11 Good sense makes a man restrain his anger, and it is his glory to overlook a transgression or an offense. 12 The king's wrath is as terrifying as the roaring of a lion, but his favor is as [refreshing as] dew upon the grass. 13 A self-confident and foolish son is the [multiplied] calamity of his father, and the contentions of a wife are like a continual dripping [of water through a chink in the roof]. 14 House and riches are the inheritance from fathers, but a wise, understanding, and prudent wife is from the Lord. 15 Slothfulness casts one into a deep sleep, and the idle person shall suffer hunger. 16 He who keeps the commandment [of the Lord] keeps his own life, but he who despises His ways shall die. 17 He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord, and that which he has given He will repay to him. 18 Discipline your son while there is hope, but do not [indulge your angry resentments by undue chastisements and] set yourself to his ruin. 19 A man of great wrath shall suffer the penalty; for if you deliver him [from the consequences], he will [feel free to] cause you to do it again. 20 Hear counsel, receive instruction, and accept correction, that you may be wise in the time to come. 21 Many plans are in a man's mind, but it is the Lord's purpose for him that will stand. 22 That which is desired in a man is loyalty and kindness [and his glory and delight are his giving], but a poor man is better than a liar.

Is the Russian military actually losing ground, or adapting faster than Western allies realize? Fresh off a tour of the Ukrainian front lines, Senior Fellow in the Russia and Eurasia Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Michael Kofman delivers a realistic assessment of the latest developments in the Russia-Ukraine war. Kofman explains why Ukraine is in its strongest position since mid-2023, how Russian military commanders reporting false progress to Putin may lead to a mismatch between goals and means in the war, the strategic implications behind Ukraine's recent command changes and political shifts in defense procurement, and why it's critical that NATO learns what it can from Ukrainian force exercises to be prepared to face Russia's next post-war threat. Sir Richard Dearlove and co-host Kate McCann unpack the latest and most significant news stories in geopolitics: the launch of Sweden's own civilian intelligence service, whether President Trump's rhetoric on Iran reflects uncertainty or strategic deception, and the data supporting the skeptical American attitude about AI.

Military and veterans' health systems operate in some of the most complex, high-demand environments in healthcare. Their experience managing limited resources, coordinating care across large populations and adopting new technologies offers valuable lessons for health systems nationwide. In this episode of Healthcare Insider, Modern Healthcare Content Studio host Shannon Mortland speaks with Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Telita Crosland, MD, MPH, MS, former director of the Defense Health Agency, and The Honorable David J. Shulkin, MD, former U.S. Secretary of Veterans Affairs. The conversation explores how government-driven innovation, operational discipline and emerging care models can help healthcare leaders improve access, strengthen coordination and address challenges such as fragmented care and delayed diagnosis.
On this, our 337th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss how Western society is treating its children. First, the good news: the Department of Justice, working with AGs in Texas and Ohio, have effectively shuttered two major “gender care” clinics, and extracted promises to create clinics to support people in detransitioning. It's about time. But: why is there a Trump banner on the DoJ? This is not typically how Americans do things, for good reason. Add the Trump branded passport, and $1 coin, and there's a definite Dear Leader vibe going on. Politics has taken over analytical thought—today, all you have to do is know who stands for a thing, and you know whether you do or do not agree. (See the protein panic currently taking blue-media outlets by storm.) Then: a Yale law professor says the insane part out loud. Finally, a guy caught taking out Flock cameras suddenly has a lot of friends, at least on-line.*****Our sponsors:Timeline: Accelerate the clearing of damaged mitochondria to improve strength and endurance: Go to http://www.timeline.com/darkhorse and use code darkhorse for 20% off your first order.ARMRA Colostrum is an ancient bioactive whole food that can strengthen your immune system.

In this episode, we're joined by Jason Carter for a meaningful conversation about mental health, resilience, and sustaining purpose in the demanding world of healthcare. Jason Carter's journey into healthcare began with six years of service in the U.S. Navy as a Hospital Corpsman and Surgical Technologist, laying a strong foundation in clinical care and leadership.

Behind every emergency is a story of resilience, sacrifice, and unseen challenges. Karla Perez Solorzano, Executive Director of Healing Heroic Healers, shares her journey from 25 years as a frontline healthcare professional to creating a mission focused on supporting first responders through trauma, burnout, and healing. Through an honest conversation with Dr. Michelle Robin and Bayleigh Soza, Karla explores the importance of whole-person care, building resilience, and creating communities that support the people who dedicate their lives to caring for others. Her story is a powerful reminder that even heroes need care, compassion, and space to heal. Key Takeaways: First responders carry invisible wounds, and prioritizing their mental, emotional, and physical well-being is essential to sustaining the people who care for our communities. Whole-person healing extends beyond traditional healthcare by addressing emotional resilience, supportive relationships, and access to restorative resources. Building resilience before adversity strikes creates a stronger foundation to navigate trauma, stress, and life's unexpected challenges. Offering grace, compassion, and understanding to healthcare professionals acknowledges that caregivers are human and often carry burdens we cannot see. Communities become healthier when individuals, organizations, and healthcare providers work together to support both those receiving care and those delivering it. We couldn't highlight incredible stories like this without the support of our sponsor, CommunityAmerica Credit Union. Thank you for helping us promote connection, well-being, and stronger communities. If you're looking for trusted financial wellbeing resources, we invite you to connect with their team and take the next step toward greater financial confidence. About Karla Perez-Solorzano: Karla V.

Fiji has long been at the forefront of developing policies to help its residents voluntarily relocate to escape the extreme effects of climate change. The country, which is comprised of hundreds of islands in the Pacific, faces rising sea levels, extreme weather, and other dangers. But for many Fijians, the choice to pack up and leave home is a difficult one. Many have a deep spiritual and personal connection to place, a concept known as vanua. Meanwhile, as one of the largest economies in the region, Fiji is also a destination for migrants from other Pacific Island countries, including those threatened by climate change. How has the government tried to support people who move? What considerations do residents consider when deciding whether to relocate? And what is the response to immigration from other countries? On this episode, we discuss these issues with Sargam Goundar, a Fijian doctoral researcher at the University of Otago. Chapters 01:41 Climate Impacts Unfolding in Fiji 04:54 Government-Led Planned Relocation Framework 08:17 The Concept of Vanua: Cultural Ties to Land 13:10 Community Concerns and Decision-Making Around Relocation 16:44 Fiji as a Regional Migration Destination 22:16 Policy Gaps and Research Priorities

"From the Frontlines" is an ADL podcast which brings listeners to the frontline in the battle against antisemitism, hate and extremism through conversations with ADL staff, advocates and, in this podcast, three people who spend their careers confronting hate in one of the most trusted institutions in American life: our hospitals, our medical schools and our healthcare system. This podcast an edited version of a webinar titled "Hate in Healthcare? Antisemitism in the Health Profession and Ways to Counter It." It was co-sponsored by ADL's Westchester activist group and the ADL NY/NJ Region's Campus Committee. So why healthcare? Because most people do not think of a hospital or a medical school as a frontline in the fight against antisemitism, but it is. Dr. Halperin, one of this podcast's guests, has spent decades documenting the history of Jewish quotas in American medical education, a period when nearly 60 percent of medical school applicants nationally were Jewish, yet admissions were capped at somewhere between 5 and 20 percent. That history is not as distant as we would like to believe. A 2025 survey of Jewish healthcare professionals found that more than 75 percent reported experiencing antisemitism in their own workplace since October 7th. Just this past May, Congress held a hearing titled "Bad Medicine: Politics, Unions and Antisemitism in Health Care" to examine exactly this problem. As one of this podcast's guests testified before that very committee, antisemitism in medicine is, at its core, a patient care crisis. So who is confronting this inside the walls of our medical schools and our healthcare institutions? This podcast offers three answers to that question with its three esteemed guests: - Dr. Edward Halperin is Chancellor and Chief Executive Officer of New York Medical College, where he is also a professor of radiation oncology, pediatrics and history and holds an endowed chair in biomedical ethics after the Holocaust. He is one of the country's foremost historians of antisemitism in American medical education, having spent decades documenting the quotas that limited Jewish enrollment in medical schools for much of the twentieth century, and he has continued that work by speaking out on antisemitism in the medical profession today. - Eveline Shekhman is the Chief Executive Officer of the American Jewish Medical Association, the national professional organization for Jewish healthcare professionals, founded in the aftermath of October 7th. She leads AJMA's work supporting Jewish physicians, fellows, residents and medical students facing discrimination and hostile workplace environments, and she recently testified before Congress on the rise of antisemitism and anti-Zionism in American healthcare. - And Masha Zemtsov is ADL's Director of education advocacy, helping schools, universities and institutions build the tools and policies needed to recognize and respond to antisemitism before it takes root. Her work bridges exactly the gap we are here to talk about tonight: what happens when the institutions meant to train and support our healthcare professionals are not yet equipped to confront hate within their own walls. The podcast starts with an overview of the history of antisemitism in medical schools with Dr. Halperin and then jumps right into the moderated discussion with Eveline and Masha.

In this episode, Jim Garrity explains the procedure for deposing current or former federal government employees where the federal government isn't a party to your litigation. These are commonly known as 'Touhy witnesses." And if they're important to your case, you'd better plan for their deposition very carefully. Garrity also discusses the importance of a strong backup plan, because many such deposition requests are denied by the employing agency. Important stuff to know!
