At a certain point in your business, it becomes obvious you cannot keep doing everything yourself and expect to keep growing. You need support. But what happens when hiring a team actually makes your business less profitable and more complicated? In this episode, I'm joined by Brittany Braswell to unpack a smarter, more sustainable way to delegate without immediately jumping into expensive hires. We're talking about how to leverage interns strategically so you can get out of the weeds, protect your profit margins, and build real systems that support long-term growth. If you've ever felt stuck between burnout and overhiring, this conversation will give you a completely new way to think about building a team. Timeline Highlights [03:19] Brittany shares how her early experience with interns shaped her entire business model [06:15] Why most people have a negative experience with interns and what usually goes wrong [09:07] The biggest mistake that turns internships into a time drain instead of a business asset [11:21] How defining clear roles and repeatable tasks changes everything [12:32] Why a simple training process eliminates constant hand holding [16:09] The mindset shift high-performing CEOs need to delegate effectively [20:05] How internships force you to build systems and stop doing everything yourself [21:16] Why you should not wait until things are perfect before delegating [23:38] The role of structure in protecting creativity and increasing efficiency [26:02] How to decide between hiring paid help or starting with interns [29:04] Why repetition helps interns become faster and better than you at certain tasks [30:39] Examples of tasks Brittany successfully delegates like blogging and research [33:24] Where to find high quality interns and how to attract the right people [35:15] What Brittany looks for in the application and hiring process [41:54] What motivates unpaid interns to do great work [50:20] How overhiring paid team members can destroy your profit margins [51:25] Using interns to support paid team members and increase efficiency Top 5 Quotes from Brittany "Interns become a really fantastic way to force you into some structure and force you into some systems and push you out of that mindset of 'it's faster for me to just do it myself.'" "Having really clear roles, a simple repeatable training process, and defined tasks removes the hand holding and protects your mental capacity as a CEO." "If you get stuck in the mindset of 'it's faster for me,' it's not actually faster if you have to do it forever. Delegation is what creates long term efficiency." "Most tasks in your business do not require a high level of expertise and when someone does them repeatedly, they often become faster and better at them than you." "People want to learn from you even if you are just a few steps ahead and that value exchange is what makes internships so powerful."

Seniorität im AI-Zeitalter.AI ist überall. In Demos, in LinkedIn-Posts, in Produktivitätsversprechen und inzwischen auch mitten im Entwickleralltag. Aber was passiert eigentlich, wenn Code plötzlich billig wird? Wird dann jede:r zum 10x Engineer oder merken wir erst jetzt, worauf es bei Seniorität wirklich ankommt? Genau dieser Frage gehen wir in dieser Episode nach und schauen ehrlich auf den Spannungsbogen zwischen KI-Hype, Softwarequalität, Code Reviews und Karriereentwicklung.Wir sprechen darüber, warum mehr Output nicht automatisch mehr Outcome bedeutet, was DORA-Metriken, Studien und Alltagserfahrungen über AI Coding Tools sagen und weshalb das Big Picture wichtiger wird als die pure Menge an produziertem Code. Außerdem diskutieren wir, warum Senior Engineers gerade jetzt so gefragt sind, welche Rolle Kommunikation, Priorisierung, Leadership und Architekturverständnis spielen und warum der Satz AI ist doch mein Junior deutlich zu kurz greift. Ebenso schauen wir auf den Rückgang von Junior-Rollen, auf Internships als Recruiting-Pipeline und darauf, wie Lernen, Mentoring und echte Verantwortung in einer Welt mit Coding Agents aussehen können.Wenn du verstehen willst, wie sich Softwareentwicklung, Seniorität, Juniors, Staff Engineers, AI Adoption und Business Value gerade verschieben, ist diese Folge für dich.

Building the Turfgrass Manager Pipeline: A Call for Industry-Academic Partnership

Podcast Association

Welcome to The Turf Zone Podcast. This episode features the article “Building the Turfgrass Manager Pipeline: A Call for Industry-Academic Partnership” written by Jay McCurdy. The larger turfgrass and landscape industry has a labor issue—mainly that there's not a reliable pipeline for accessing young and capable employees. I have this conversation almost weekly when discussing the state of the industry and how my role in a “turfgrass program” relates. I'm now in my 12th year at Mississippi State University, so I no doubt have some ownership of the problems. But I also wanted to relay to a wider audience just what some of the solutions might be to solve this problem. Yes, higher industry pay might help, but there's more to the story than just that. Our landscape management industry includes a broad range of job titles, but most of us reading this magazine are either boots-on-the-ground landscape managers (ex. superintendents, lawn care professionals, sports field managers, sod producers, equipment managers, etc.) or are somehow involved in the industry/supply side (sales, accounts, research and development, chemical, equipment, etc.). We know the technical mastery and skill required to do this job. We know the rewards and challenges. Nevertheless, I find the perspective from academia is often a little different from what it was when I was a practitioner. We are all concerned about a shrinking pipeline of new professionals entering our field. Turfgrass academic programs are often criticized for producing too few graduates, and those graduates are said to be underprepared for the demanding, multifaceted roles that await them. The same is said for students fresh out of high school. There's always a debate about whether it's generational or whatnot. Maybe there's something to that, but what, pragmatically, can we do to figure all this out? The issue is more complex than a simple academic shortfall. The challenges facing turf programs reflect deeper structural and cultural dynamics within the larger society, as well as within the green industry and our academic institutions. I think we need to embrace a new model of mutual investment between academia and industry in order to restore vitality and sustainability to the profession. Whatever the model, it must redefine recruitment, enhance the talent pool, and demonstrate that green-industry roles are both professionally rewarding and personally sustainable. This essay outlines a vision for such a partnership, built on five key principles: shared recruitment, broader inclusion, job-quality reform, experiential learning, and a mutual commitment to long-term workforce development. The Myth of the One-Way Pipeline Turfgrass academic programs are too often viewed as workforce development pipelines. In this paradigm, universities are expected to “turn out” graduates who are job-ready, immediately employable, and long-term loyal to the industry. These are ambitious goals that can only be achieved through industry partnerships. Universities cannot solve structural labor shortages in isolation. For starters, the looming demographic cliff, where student enrollment drops due to fewer babies having been born ~18 years ago, is self-evident. We have to reframe the relationship as a two-way street: industry leaders and employers must engage as co-investors in the success of the next generation. The declining number of turfgrass students is not solely a turf problem—it mirrors trends across many science, technology, engineering, agriculture, and mathematics (STEAM) disciplines. Yet in turf, the impact is more acute. Fewer students are entering, and those who do are frequently drawn away by careers with higher salaries, greater mobility, and more stable work-life balance—fields like wildlife biology, ecology, food science, and agricultural engineering. If return on investment (ROI) for college interests you, I highly recommend Preston Cooper's Is College Worth It? A Comprehensive Return on Investment Analysis article. If the green industry wants to retain talented, committed professionals, it must work with academic programs to create clearer, more appealing, and more stable career pathways for students entering the field. Recruitment: A Shared Responsibility One of the most common critiques from green industry professionals and hiring managers is that turf programs are not doing enough to recruit students into the field. In truth, recruitment cannot be the sole responsibility of faculty or universities. Few high school students grow up dreaming of becoming a golf course superintendent, especially if they've never been exposed to the role or the science behind it. Lots of kids grow up mowing lawns, but do they view that as a stable profession? How many golf course superintendents leave the industry for better working hours or more stable family lives? The stories of our profession are not always positive. How do we improve that? Meaningful recruitment requires visibility, storytelling, and early engagement. That means: Hosting and organizing Golf Course Superintendents Association of America's (GCSAA's) STEAM program, First Green. Industry professionals visiting high schools, FFA programs, and 4-H events to talk about careers in turf and to give hands-on help managing facilities. Hosting youth days, career shadowing, or field trips in coordination with FFA, agricultural teachers, 4-H, and Extension educators. Alumni sharing their stories, not just of agronomic challenges overcome, but of career development, family stability, and lifelong learning. Academic programs can support these efforts with marketing materials, introductory coursework, event production, and advising. Industry partners can develop their own materials, and my academic colleagues and I would be happy to collaborate. But unless the industry is willing to support or do the work, recruitment will remain a leaky pipeline. The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America has promoted its First Green program and has invested heavily in promoting the profession to kids in FFA. This is a good example of how we might target youth to entice them into our profession. Reaching the Future of the Profession A second issue compounding recruitment challenges is the profession's lack of demographic diversity (this isn't a DEI discussion!). This is not simply a turfgrass issue; it reflects broader underrepresentation across many STEAM fields. However, the profession's visual and cultural homogeneity isn't always inviting to those from different socioeconomic or cultural backgrounds. That's to say very little of the lack of female representation—it's improving. Still, it lags considerably behind many other attractive career fields for the same candidate pool we are competing for. If we want to build a workforce that reflects the broader demographics of our society, the turfgrass industry must actively recruit from historically underrepresented communities, including women, students of color, and first-generation college students. Many turf programs sit within land-grant institutions with a mission to serve all citizens of their state. Partnerships with historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), tribal colleges, and community colleges offer promising avenues for talent development. Additionally, the industry must take steps to ensure that students from diverse backgrounds are not only recruited but also retained. That means: Paid internships with real mentorship, not just summer labor. This is something our industry does well. Though pay and working conditions could always be improved, I understand the financial realities for most businesses—margins matter, and you can't pay a 20-year-old more than your loyal long-time employees. Scholarships and travel support to attend GCSAA and regional turfgrass conferences. GCSAA and our regional events have done a great job supporting our students. Our state and regional associations have covered almost all the costs for our students attending events like Deep South. GCSAA allows students and academic advisors to attend the Golf Show for free. They allow students to be members for free. We just have to cover flight and meal costs—sell more hats and pullovers! Storytelling campaigns that highlight successful professionals in our industry. Barry Stewart hosts MSU Turf Seminar speakers, and I'm sure he'd love to hear from those of you who can share your secrets to success and happiness. If the profession remains perceived as culturally insular or exclusionary, we will continue to miss out on a generation of bright, capable professionals who simply chose other welcoming fields. Career Quality: The Hidden Cost of Turnover Recruitment efforts alone are not enough if the jobs themselves are perceived as undesirable. One of the most pressing challenges facing the green industry is career sustainability and burnout. Even for students who graduate from turf programs and enter the profession, the early-career reality can be discouraging. Starting roles are often physically demanding, geographically isolating from home, and poorly compensated relative to the skill and responsibility required. I won't disagree: early careers are hard in many professions, and ours has a history of heartiness and resilience that we pride ourselves on. And that's great, but let's face it, positions frequently involve long hours, especially in golf and sports fields, weekend shifts, and high turnover. Relocation is common, placing strain on young professionals with families or community ties. Burnout is not only likely, but it's also all too often expected. In many cases, internships play a decisive role. While some students have transformative experiences, others emerge disillusioned. Internships are often where students determine whether they see a long-term future in the profession. Unfortunately, too many internships treat students as temporary labor rather than future colleagues. Our profession must take a hard look at its entry-level roles and ask: Are we investing in mentorship or extracting labor? Are we helping build careers or merely filling seasonal gaps? Are we creating a profession that values work-life balance and career advancement? Until the industry addresses these questions honestly, retention will remain low, and turf programs will struggle to retain students who see more stable options elsewhere. Experiential Learning and Academic Alignment To ensure that students are prepared for professional success, universities must evolve as well. Turfgrass programs must incorporate not only plant science and weed control, but also: Business management and budgeting Communication and conflict resolution Human resources and leadership Sustainability, data analytics, and emerging technologies Faculty must engage in continuous dialogue with industry professionals to align curricula with real-world expectations. This can happen through advisory boards, curriculum reviews, and co-developed experiential learning opportunities. Meanwhile, the industry must treat internships and co-ops as educational experiences, not just temporary employment. Golf courses that offer structured mentorship, performance feedback, and leadership development will not only see better short-term productivity, but they'll also help shape the long-term workforce of the profession. The Role of Associations The Sports Field Management Association (SFMA), GCSAA, and other professional landscape associations have a unique opportunity to lead systemic change. Many in the industry look to them for guidance, advocacy, and professional standards. But as organizations, they can: Develop and promote best practices for internship mentorship Recognize organizations that invest in student development Partner with academic programs on workforce development grants Support early-career professionals through networking and continuing education Just as importantly, associations must continue to help shift cultural expectations within the profession. That means promoting superintendent and field manager roles as executive leadership positions, not just agronomic technicians. It means celebrating the intellectual and managerial skills required to succeed in this career, and advocating for compensation, stability, and respect commensurate with those demands. Learning from Other Industries Much can be learned from adjacent fields. Engineering, for example, has long faced similar challenges: rigorous academic programs, intense internships, and high attrition. Yet leading companies and associations in that field have invested heavily in university partnerships, student engagement, and early-career support. Top manufacturing and technology firms fund campus recruiting, sponsor capstone projects, offer paid site visits to facilities, and offer career ladders with clear promotion timelines. These students, like our own, are not afraid of hard work. They are attracted by clear career outcomes and structured support along the way. There is no reason the green industry cannot offer the same. But doing so requires a shift in mindset: from “you have to earn your place” to “we will invest in you as the future of our profession.” A Vision for the Future In many places, these goals are already occurring, but here are just a few to imagine as being widespread: High school students attend “turf career days” hosted by their local superintendent and Extension agent. Universities and employers co-design internships that develop not just technical skills, but leadership and confidence. Interns feel welcomed and valued from their first day on a golf course. Assistant superintendents are mentored, paid fairly, and see clear paths to advancement. Associations and turf programs work side by side to tell the story of a modern, rewarding profession. This future is not only possible but also essential. The alternative is the status quo, or worse, decline: fewer students, fewer assistants, more burnout, and an aging workforce with no one ready to take the reins. Conclusion: A Call to Shared Action The challenges facing the profession are real, but they are not insurmountable. What is required is not blame, but shared responsibility. Universities must modernize curricula and deepen student support. Turfgrass managers must invest in mentorship and help reshape early-career roles. Our industry associations must lead with vision, coordination, and advocacy. Ultimately, this is about stewardship of the profession itself. The same care, foresight, and commitment that turfgrass managers bring to managing turf must now be brought to cultivating the future of the workforce.

Johnny Mac delivers comedy news focused on the Scrubs revival premiering Wednesday at 8:00 PM on ABC (with Hulu next day).He shares personal enthusiasm for the original series and summarizes details from interviews with Zach Braff and Donald Faison: the revival mixes a young, diverse writers' room with original writers, and centers on JD and Turk reconnecting at Sacred Heart as medicine and a new generation of interns have evolved while their friendship endures.Returning cast includes Zach Braff (JD), Donald Faison (Turk), Sarah Chalke (Elliot), Judy Reyes (Carla), John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox), and the Todd!.Not all characters will appear in every episode due to scheduling.Ken Jenkins (Dr. Kelso, 85) and Neil Flynn (the Janitor) are not in season one yet, with Braff saying it may depend on a potential second season.New cast additions include Vanessa Bayer as a wellness/HR figure with a thick file on the Todd, Joel Kim Booster as attending Dr. Eric Park, and interns named Serena, Asher, Blake, Amara, and Deana; additional intern descriptions include Amara (sheltered, homeschooled), Dashana (confident, written like a young Turk), and Tosh (an Instagram-famous influencer doctor).The episode notes Sam Lloyd's death (Ted) and that the show will pay tribute by naming a new hangout ‘Lloyd's Tavern,' with plans for a tribute episode possibly in season one or season two. Mac discusses the controversy around season nine (the ‘Med School' era) and Braff's preference to frame the new project as a ‘revival' rather than a reboot, citing Bill Lawrence's view that season nine should have had a different title.Spoilers ..........nclude JD returning as a concierge doctor because a patient is admitted to Sacred Heart, Turk as chief of surgery, Elliot as a high-up attending, and Dr. Cox adapting his teaching style to modern wellness rules and workplace norms. The script also revisits contemporary and later reviews of Scrubs, notes criticism about outdated portrayals of women and characters like the Todd, and highlights memorable episodes such as ‘My Screw Up,' ‘My Last Words,' ‘My Old Lady,' ‘My Fallen Idol,' and the season eight finale originally intended as the series finale.00:00 Scrubs Revival Is Here: Johnny's Hype & Personal Connection00:43 What We Know So Far: Premise, Returning Cast & Who Might Be Missing03:03 New Faces at Sacred Heart + Honoring Sam Lloyd (Ted)04:07 The Season 9 Problem: Reboot vs Revival (and the ‘Med School' Debate)05:27 How the Revival Finally Happened: Podcast, Ads, and Scheduling the Reunion06:07 Spoiler Zone: First Look Clips & Where Everyone Is Now07:48 Modern Hospital, Modern Rules: Dr. Cox vs HR, Wellness, and New Interns09:23 Why Scrubs Worked: Early Reviews, What Aged Poorly, and Best Episodes13:11 Final Thoughts + When to Watch (ABC/Hulu)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News is the number one comedy news podcast, delivering daily coverage of standup comedy, late night television, comedy specials, tours, and the business of comedy.COMEDY SURVIVOR in the facebook group.Contact John at John@thesharkdeck dot com For Uninterrupted Listening, use the Apple Podcast App and click the banner that says Uninterrupted Listening.  $4.99/month John's Substack about media is free.This is the animal sanctuary mentioned in the February 10 episode.

Episode DescriptionIn this episode of the Lead Ministry Podcast, Josh Denhart and Bill Van Kirk tackle a surprisingly emotional topic: cleaning the ministry closet—and why it should never be a one-person job or the default assignment for your intern. They explore a practical, discipleship-oriented process that uses three complementary roles and positions your intern as the fourth person for maximum learning. If you've ever rolled your eyes at “just have the intern do it,” this episode will equip and inspire you with a simple team model that honors people, protects history, and stewards resources.Key Topics Covered• The 3 roles you need: cut-throat pragmatist, sentimental hoarder, budget-minded realist—and why tension between them is healthy. • Why your intern is the fourth person, not the lone cleaner—and how to make it a formative leadership lab. • A semi-annual rhythm, clear criteria, and a negotiation table that prevents waste and regret. Key Quote“Don't let your intern be the closet cleaner. Make them an intelligent observer of the strategy.” Scripture ReferencesProverbs 22:28 – “Do not move the ancient boundary stone set up by your ancestors.”Luke 16:10 – “One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much…”TakeawayA clean closet isn't the goal; wise stewardship and team discipleship are. Build a small cross-functional team, define what stays or goes, protect meaningful artifacts, and train your intern by letting them watch the process, ask questions, and document decisions. Call to ActionWe hope this episode encourages and equips you.
