Let's unpack the high stakes and global implications of the upcoming G7 summit. Why was the remote town of Kananaskis, Alberta chosen as the host? What do expected protests tell us about the state of global unrest? And how do leaders like Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy and India's Narendra Modi fit into the broader conversation of inclusivity and global cooperation? We'll explore Canada's economic crossroads — from the urgent need for diversification to the growing importance of foreign investment from nations like India and Saudi Arabia. But economic growth can't come at the cost of human rights. So how should Canada strike a balance? And with Mark Carney's global experience helping shape the agenda, what can we expect from this pivotal moment on the world stage?In Episode 159 of The Bill Kelly Podcast, Bill discusses the upcoming G7 summit in Kananaskis, Alberta, emphasizing its significance in light of recent global economic challenges. He highlights the importance of inviting leaders from non-member countries like Saudi Arabia, Ukraine and India, and the necessity of addressing human rights concerns while fostering economic partnerships. The conversation also touches on the role of the United States in global economics and the need for Canada to diversify its economic relationships. Prime Minister Mark Carney's leadership is noted as a pivotal factor in shaping the agenda and outcomes of the conference.Become a paid SubStack subscriber or YouTube channel member to hear Bill's personal stories and life lessons from 50+ years as a broadcast journalist in his members-only series, MORAL OF THE STORY: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeUbzckOLocFzNeY1D72iCA/joinDon't forget to like, follow and subscribe across our channels!

In this episode, we explore what happens when you bring together different generations at work and create space for all voices to be heard.Gary Danoff, a global leader at Google and an experienced executive coach, shares how he builds strong, multigenerational teams. He explains how to recognize and work with the different experiences that shape each generation. His approach centers on curiosity, active listening, and what he calls leading with love. Gary also shares how he encourages open conversations on teams and why understanding strengths is more useful than relying on labels.This is a practical look at how to create respectful, high-performing environments where people of any age feel valued and motivated.Key Takeaways:1. Curiosity is the bridge - Asking questions and staying open to others' experiences helps create understanding across generations.2.

And I think it's just another way that we're talking about differences in the workplace. There's all kinds of backlash around diversity, equity and inclusion.

Dr. Victor Santiago Pineda as the new Executive Director of CIL!  With his extensive experience as a global advocate for disability rights and his innovative vision, Dr. Pineda is set to lead bThe center for Independent Living into an exhilarating new chapter of empowerment and inclusion.Victor Santiago Pineda was born in Caracas, Venezuela, At the age of two, Pineda was hospitalized with a high fever and for the next five years he demonstrated gradual weakening of his skeletal muscles. By age four, his weakened muscles caused him to fall repeatedly and by age seven, he stopped walking completely. His muscular deterioration would continue and eventually affect his breathing. By the time he was in high school, he needed to use a ventilator at night, and by the time he started his doctoral program in his late-twenties, he required a ventilator twenty-four hours per day.As a child, Pineda was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA-Type II), a form of muscular dystrophy. However, as an adult, he was examined by a neurophysiologist who, with the use of electromyography, determined that there was no evidence to suggest Spinal muscular atrophy. The specific cause of Pineda's muscle weakness was identified as collagenopathy VI, resulting from an extremely common genetic mutation.Pineda attended Corona Del Mar High School in Newport Beach, California, and was selected by his graduating class as a commencement speaker. Upon graduating in 1997, Pineda attended the California Youth Leadership Forum for Students with Disabilities (YLF). As a freshman at the University of California Berkeley, he received specialized support services provided by the Disabled Students Office (DSP) and participated in the Disabled Students Residence Program (DSRP).[citaWhile at UC Berkeley was elected senator for the ASUC student government, defended ethnic studies, with the leadership of Andrew Berk, hehelped resurrect the long dormant Disabled Students Union (DSU). During this time he established the Disability Media Initiative (DMI) and the Pineda Foundation to provide 21st century workforce skills to youth with disabilities. Pineda earned a B.A. in political economy, a B.S. in business administration and, eventually, a master's degree in city and regional planning (MCP) with a concentration in regional economic development. He then accepted an internship in Washington, D.C., where he served as a summer associate at the US Treasury's Department of International Affairs.IPineda was awarded the American Association of People with Disabilities Paul G. Hearne Award.Pineda's "It's About Ability" projectwas honored in Montenegro for the Best Humanitarian Action by UNICEF.Also in 2011, he received the prestigious Mark Bingham Award for Excellence in Achievement by a Young Alumnus/a, Cal Alumni Association for his work in education and human rights.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBAS

In this episode, Kate Bravery, Global Leader of Talent Advisory at Mercer, is joined by Dr. Andrew Tay, Chief Wellbeing Officer at the National University of Singapore (NUS). They discuss the role of the Chief Wellbeing Officer and the evolving mental health challenges faced by NUS students, including insights into the value of in-person collaboration. Additionally, they explore the implications of these challenges for businesses concerning the next generation of talent emerging from universities.Interesting moments:Who owns well-beingAt the end of it all well-being is a whole organization approach. It is not a HR problem. It is not a manager problem. It's not a CEO problem. It's everybody's problem, everybody has a role to play.Value of in-person workWhen students learn remotely their risk of developing self-esteem issues increases. Think of your remote work policies. The in-office arrangement allows the community to connect socially, improve connectivity and reduce isolation.Psychological safetyWe started to track the concept of incivility. Those teams with a low incivility score were more likely to have higher psychological safety. What does that mean? It means you need to manage the behavior of your colleagues. You cannot tolerate remarks aimed at hurting people.Anticipating workforce needs We are training the next batch of our workforce who will be entering into your workplace. It is important for HR to anticipate the kind of issues that young people are facing before they enter the workforce and the kind of support that can help them thrive.https://www.mercer.com/insights/people-strategy/future-of-work/podcast-new-shape-of-work/

A simple microscope gift during a childhood illness sparked a lifelong passion for horticulture that would take Dr. Daniel Leskovar from Argentina to leadership in American plant science. As the current President of the American Society for Horticultural Science, Dr. Leskovar shares the remarkable journey that began with his father's work in hop production and led him through prestigious institutions across three continents.The conversation reveals how formative experiences—observing agricultural practices in Patagonia, studying plant cells during recovery from a kidney infection, and adapting to a fruit and vegetable-rich diet—shaped his scientific curiosity. Dr. Leskovar pursued advanced degrees at Wageningen University, UC Davis, and the University of Florida before establishing himself as a respected researcher and center director at Texas A&M University.From his base in the "Winter Garden of Texas," Dr. Leskovar conducts innovative research on artichokes, tomatoes, spinach, and hydroponics. His current projects showcase a commitment to practical solutions, including grafting techniques for improved tomato production, assessing cadmium levels in spinach to ensure food safety, and developing hydroponic systems that can engage students with horticultural science.What truly distinguishes this conversation is Dr. Leskovar's vision for horticultural science globally. He articulates ambitious goals for ASHS, emphasizing the need to elevate publications, strengthen the society's brand recognition, and forge international partnerships that highlight how "what we do matters to people, matters to the environment, matters to quality of life."Ready to discover how horticultural science shapes our world?

This podcast is the replay of a webinar Protiviti hosted in January 2025. President Donald Trump took office in January with Republican control of both the Senate and the House and with a conservative-leaning Supreme Court. He has moved quickly to appoint cabinet members, agency heads and others who share his vision for the United States. He has also appointed individuals to advise him and his administration on a range of issues (e.g., energy, border, crypto and AI czars) and created a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to make recommendations to the White House on ways to make government more efficient. Given these developments and what the president has said about his plans, which are the potential industry winners and losers and how might CEOs prepare for the administration based on this evolving information? Discussion topics include:Industries likely to be most impacted favorably and unfavorablyThe potential for increased mergers and acquisition activityThe impact of U.S. policy on non-US domiciled companiesThe outlook for AISpeakers:Carol Beaumier, Senior Managing Director, Global Leader for Thought Leadership, ProtivitiMichael Brauneis, Executive Vice President, Global Industry & Client Programs, Global Financial Services Industry Leader, ProtivitiJonathan Wyatt, Managing Director, Protiviti Europe Regional Market LeaderRob Gould, Managing Director and Global Private Equity and Transaction Services Practice Lead, ProtivitiChristine Livingston, Managing Director – Global AI Leader, Protiviti
