Podcast appearances and mentions of John Cotter

Today, John Cotter (Losing Music) discusses writing a memoir by accreting details, revision, being a gusher or not, reinventing the wheel with every project, considering the reader, how his memoir is actually a mystery, the inhumanity of the medical industry, and more! John Cotter is the author of the novel Under the Small Lights, and the memoir Losing Music, which Oprah Daily calls, “as much a love letter to sound itself as it is a chronicle of loss; your world will sound different after reading it.” The Millions calls Losing Music, “a powerful addition to the memoir canon–hard-hitting, beautiful, profound.” And The Wall Street Journal says, “Evidence that Mr. Cotter's ear is still keen for the melodies of language sings from every page.”  Learn more about your ad choices.

Memoirist John Cotter describes his partial loss of hearing through a series of anecdotes. Running along the Massachusetts coastline, he found he could no longer hear the rush and ebb of the ocean waves. He danced at a wedding to what he thought was an indiscriminate wall of cacophony but when his wife said it was “Billie Jean”, John's brain was able to assemble the sound together through memory. John was diagnosed with Ménière's disease, which affects hearing and causes vertigo, but received little in the way of treatment advice beyond being told to get on antidepressants. This wasn't necessarily bad advice because he entered a deep depression from losing the ability to teach, to enjoy his favorite music, and even to talk to friends on the phone. Gradually, he finds hearing aids that are effective, learns to read lips (which he does in this interview conducted over Zoom), and finds music again.Get your copy of Losing Music: A Memoir wherever books are sold.

We're joined by John Cotter, author of the memoir Losing Music, out this week from Milkweed Editions. The book is about an incurable inner-ear disorder that came on suddenly, and inexplicably, and how John has had to reckon with the gradual loss of his hearing, and the host of other issues that brings with it. John picked a famous Maxine Hong Kingston essay for us to read, one that offers an interesting model for writing about what we don't know.  You can learn more about John, and find links to purchase his book, here: https://johncotter.net/ If you like the show, and would like to exchange five of your hard-earned dollars for monthly bonus content--including access to the Book Fight Book Club--you can sign up for our Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/BookFight

One of our listeners in Finland is in a pickle. Anna wants to operationalize journey mapping to make their Customer Experience more customer centric. Perhaps more importantly, she wants these improvements to prove practical and effective rather than viewed as a “soft and fluffy” exercise that is not practical for the organization to continue to support.  Anna is not alone in this problem. Similar situations are everywhere in business today. After all, owners and stakeholders in an organization do not invest money in anything because they are hoping it doesn't provide a return on investment. The things you spend resources on in business should provide a return on investment—or they are not practical enough for the organization to continue to support.  In this episode, we discuss Anna's business pickle and how she can leverage what she learns in journey mapping to improve her organization's customer strategy. In addition, we will share practical steps and advice that any organization should take when implementing what they learn from the exercise to become more customer-centric in the experience they provide. Key Ideas to Improve your Customer Experience When it comes to journey mapping, we often encounter a problem. People think that the exercise is the answer to everything that's wrong (or right) with Customer Experiences. But it isn't. Journey Mapping is a way to uncover the answers to everything, and should be combined with other customer-centricity experience improvement efforts and measurements to ensure success. We talk about these areas in the podcast.  Here are a few key moments in the discussion: 2:55  Anna shares her pickle in a recording about how to use the findings in their journey mapping exercise to change the organization to be more customer-centric. 6:10  We share our advice on how to operationalize journey mapping starting with the four parts of a customer experience, including the rational, conscious, subconscious, and psychological.  07:15  Ryan shares his view on what journey mapping can do for an organization, and how it can benefit organizations in their experience improvement efforts. 12:50  Colin addresses the nine areas of customer centricity that affect customer experiences, and the four levels of customer centricity that range from Naïve to Natural.  16:40  Colin shares a personal example of how an experience can expose how customer-centric an organization is.  20:46  We talk about the John Cotter's 8-step Process for Leading Change and how Anna (and other organizations) can use it to manage the process.  32:08  We both share the practical steps for leveraging what you know from your journey mapping exercise into improving your experience to drive value for the organization, from Emotional Signture research to measurement strategy and more.  Do you have a business problem you would like our help with?

In this week's ‘News Roundtable' episode, host Chris Wright is joined by Nazir Afzal, former chief crown prosecutor; John Cotter, lecturer in law at Keele School of Law and Anoosh Chakelian, Britain editor at the New Statesman.  The conversation begins by discussing fresh calls for Boris Johnson's resignation, and his bid to cling onto power before the critical local elections. They contemplate how the numerous scandals from fast-track contracts to the No.10 Christmas party will influence so-called ‘Red Wall' seats, and whether he is likely to fight a vote of no-confidence.The conversation moves on to debate the impact of the BBC licence fee being frozen and plans for it to be abolished by 2027, to discuss whether the plan is ideologically motivated, or perhaps a timely distraction from the ‘partygate' scandal.Guests also chew over Novak Djokovic's deportation from Australia and consider whether it is right to ban sportspeople who are unvaccinated from competing at the Olympics.Created & produced by Podcast Partners: www.podcastpartners.comSign up to receive updates by email when a new episode drops at: www.wrightonthenail.fm

In this week's ‘Deep Dive' episode on Northern Ireland protocol, host Chris Wright is joined by Emma DeSouza, writer and commentator for The Irish Times Opinion - and Vice Chair at ‘Votingrights.ie'; John Cotter, Law lecturer at Keele University, barrister and EU legal specialist; and Cathal McCall, professor of Politics and International Relations at Queen's University Belfast and author. The conversation begins with guests reflecting on the 2016 referendum, questioning how Britain arrived at this point, and delving into the many intricacies that came to light early on in the process. The discussion then moves onto “get Brexit done,” as guests analyse the Brexit proceedings so far - sharing their thoughts on the possible implications of a hard border on the island of Ireland, and what this could mean for Irish thinking following the aftermath of The Good Friday Agreement. In the wake of recent mobilisation within Ireland guests ask why issues appear to not be being tackled head on, and debate the arrival of a political tactic, ‘project fear.' Finally, guests chew over the “hasty deal” itself pushed forward by Johnson and Frost - and look towards the future, questioning what this could mean for both Ireland and England on an international stage, with interest brewing in mainland Europe...

What is AGILE thinking?Adaptability, Growth Improvement Leadership Experience The AGILE method is empiricism. We don’t know what we have to do to please our stakeholders We as humans don’t like to fail. Our education system rewards getting the right answer and doesn’t support failure. Why do you need to teach adults that? Effort and process. What did you learn in this experiment? Agile mentality have anything to offer me as a School principal? It was about the process that I needed to follow. We don’t have processes when it comes to idiosyncratic people. Is it complicated or complex? We do inspection and we have quality control Humans as creators of engineering What is the next experiment that I can use to help you grow? When change approaches are successful and when they are failures. CARES Act dealing with loans and withdrawals. Couldn’t have done it if not for the agile training they had gone through. What about those made it so they could change so quickly. John Cotter - the Heart of Change Sense of urgency has to the first thing They will either vote with their feet or demand change. Failures - trying once and then being surprised and giving up. We are working in a complex ever-changing environment. Build the change model Retrospectives - How formal should these things be? Don’t overwhelm the system. What questions could I have asked to make it better? Get comfortable with feedback, and accelerate that feedback. We’ve got to carve out time to change. Get effective first, then become efficient. Growth vs. fixed mindset - fixed mindset is focused on being efficient. Asking them what they have changed in their approach. Change starts with awareness. It’s time to make the donuts Fight Flight and Freeze If you do want to change, be prepared to get some push back. How to be a transformative principal? Figure out what is on your backlog that needs to change. Make it so small that nobody will notice except you. Ask your class how they’re doing.
