Feine Unterschiede, große Wirkung – Distinktionsmerkmale in Beratung & AlltagIn dieser Episode widmen wir uns einem Thema, das oft zwischen den Zeilen wirkt – und dennoch maßgeblich beeinflusst, wie Menschen sich selbst erleben und miteinander in Beziehung treten: Distinktionsmerkmale.Claus Triebiger und Kevin Baron sprechen darüber, wie Menschen durch Kleidung, Sprache, Auftreten oder kulturelle Referenzen ein bestimmtes Bild von sich erzeugen – bewusst oder unbewusst. Und wir fragen, was diese Merkmale über Zugehörigkeit, Ausgrenzung und Identität verraten – besonders dann, wenn sie in Beratungsprozesse hineinwirken.Was bedeutet es, wenn jemand bestimmte Symbole nutzt, die nicht „seine eigenen“ sind?Was passiert, wenn Sprache oder Stil zum Hindernis werden – oder zur Brücke?Neben Konzepten wie kulturellem Kapital (nach Bourdieu), sozialer Prägung von Geschmack und dem Einfluss von Milieus auf Wahrnehmung, Haltung und Verhalten reflektieren wir auch die Rolle von Symbolik, Kunst und sozialen Medien in der heutigen Beratungspraxis.Und zum Schluss:Ein kleiner Schlenker zum Wein – denn auch hier zeigt sich Distinktion auf sinnlich erfahrbare Weise.

Mit Luna Mull, Sonja Stolle und Kevin BaronBeschreibung:In dieser Episode sprechen Kevin Baron, Luna Mull und Sonja Stolle über die Verbindung zwischen Psychologie und Systemik, insbesondere im Kontext des Konstruktivismus. Sie beleuchten, wie Menschen ihre Realität konstruieren, die Rolle von Wahrnehmung und Attribution sowie die Auswirkungen der individuellen Lerngeschichte auf das Erleben. Dabei geht es auch um die Frage, wie Emotionen und Gedanken unsere Wahrnehmung lenken – und wie Beraterinnen und Berater damit umgehen können. Zudem sprechen sie darüber, wie individuelle Erfahrungen und neuronale Strukturen unsere Wahrnehmung prägen und wie Kommunikation in Beratungssituationen gestaltet werden kann, um unterschiedliche Perspektiven zu berücksichtigen. Darüber hinaus thematisieren sie die Rolle von neuronaler Plastizität und Priming für die Wahrnehmung und verdeutlichen, wie Sprache und Aufmerksamkeit unsere Realität beeinflussen. In dieser Episode wird die Bedeutung von Selbstreflexion und offener Kommunikation in zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungen hervorgehoben – insbesondere im Umgang mit den Herausforderungen, die sich aus unterschiedlichen Wahrnehmungen ergeben, und der Notwendigkeit, die eigene Perspektive zu hinterfragen.„Rubinsche Vase“ (Minute 29:22):https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figur-Grund-WahrnehmungPsychologie, Systemik, Konstruktivismus, Realität, Wahrnehmung, Attribution, erlernte Hilflosigkeit, Emotionen, Kognitionsschemata, Neuropsychologie, Priming, neuronale Plastizität, Sichtbarkeit, gewaltfreie Kommunikation, Perspektivwechsel

Trump's tariff tumult has left the world reeling.  Global leaders are scrambling to respond. Companies, both small and large, are worried about their futures. Most importantly, everyday Americans are not sure how they're going to afford retirement, rent and groceries. Former Congressman David Jolly and Congressman Robert Garcia discuss. Plus, two top National Security Agency officials are dismissed. Analyst and former executive editor of Defense One, Kevin Baron, weighs in.

If the sharing of private chats of top United States intelligence officials with a reporter “were a part of an episode of Veep [a satirical US TV series], I wouldn't have believed it”, former Pentagon official Alex Wagner says. The chats touched on Yemen, Europe, and other foreign and domestic policy concerns. Wagner and military affairs journalist Kevin Baron tell host Steve Clemons that the inadvertent inclusion of the journalist in the Signal group chats indicates a level of “carelessness” that is more insidious than the Trump administration cares to admit. Despite the gravity of the mistake, no one expects any accountability for the officials involved.

In dieser Episode diskutieren Claus Triebiger und Kevin Baron die Grundlagen des systemischen Ansatzes und dessen Anwendung in der Beratung. Sie beleuchten die Charakteristika des Systemischen, wie Wechselwirkungen, Rückkopplungseffekte und die Bedeutung von Sprache und kulturellem Kapital. Ein besonderer Höhepunkt ist die Verwendung der Metapher der Weinflasche, die komplexe systemische Prozesse auf anschauliche Weise verdeutlicht. Mit dieser Metapher erklären sie die Tragfähigkeit von Methoden und die verschiedenen Zertifikate in der systemischen Beratung. Außerdem thematisieren sie die Unterschiede zwischen Beratung und Coaching und zeigen, warum Verknüpfungsdenken und Perspektivwechsel für die erfolgreiche Arbeit mit Klienten so essenziell sind. Darüber hinaus wird die Bedeutung von Affekttransfer und der Sprache des Klienten in der Beratung erörtert. Claus und Kevin diskutieren, wie Erwartungen und Wahrnehmungen von Klienten und Beratern die Dynamik beeinflussen, und beleuchten die Rolle von Kleidung und Kommunikation im Beratungskontext. Abschließend wird die Entwicklung der Jugendsprache und ihre Auswirkungen auf die Beratung praxisnah thematisiert. Takeaways: Wechselwirkungen und Rückkopplungseffekte sind zentrale Elemente der Systemik. Sprache, kulturelles Kapital und Kommunikation sind Schlüsselwerkzeuge in der Beratung. Die Weinflasche als Metapher hilft, systemische Prozesse greifbar zu machen. Perspektivwechsel und Verknüpfungsdenken fördern die Komplexitätsbewältigung. Affekttransfer und die Sprache des Klienten beeinflussen die Beratungsdynamik maßgeblich.

It's been a massive, cold and painful week. And he hasn't even been inaugurated yet. We're hurtling towards more and more massive and painful weeks. And massive impacts. And this week the most consequential news revolved around the hearings for SECDEF and the cowardice of Republican Senators and their inability to stand up to Trump and deny Pete Hegseth. But the other party continues to be weak and feckless and sucks in its own unique ways. The Democrats put up a paltry attack. Again. They got rolled. Again. And now it looks as if Hegseth is inevitable and has set the tone for a January of bizarro world cabinet nominees and Trump momentum.  None of it is normal, none of it is acceptable and none of it is preordained. But the Democrats continue to lose. Lose power, lose control, lose the narrative, and lose whatever semblance of cohesion they had. It's time to stop investing in failure, America. The parties are the problem, and independents like you can be an important part of the solution.  Leave the herds. Declare your independence. And watch or listen up. Rieckhoff's got your weekly dose.  And another awesome, smart and unique guest. Kevin Baron is a highly experienced Pentagon and defense reporter with decades of experience in and around the Defense Department and almost a dozen Defense Secretaries. He's seen em all, and been part of the press corps that traveled with them around the world. He was the founding Executive Editor of Defense One, and a national security staff writer for National Journal, and a reporter for Stars and Stripes, the Boston Globe Washington bureau, and the Center for Public Integrity.

But there is “still a lot of fighting left” on both sides, according to Kevin Baron, executive editor at Defense One, a publication covering national security issues.And Americans should consider their spending in Ukraine to be a “grand bargain” as Russia is being severely weakened without the loss of any American lives, according to Matt Dimmick, former director of Russia at the National Security Council.On this episode of The Bottom Line, host Steve Clemons and his panel have a wide-ranging discussion about the future of the Ukraine war.

In der heutigen Folge präsentieren wir Euch eine „ménage à trois“. Kevin Baron und Claus Triebiger unterhalten sich im gewohnt schönen Ambiente des Aufnahmestudios und erstmalig wird per Videozuschaltung Ute Luhmann – sonst stille Beobachterin im Hintergrund und zuständig für die Begleitnotizen zu den Podcasts – mit der Erlaubnis zum Mitreden ausgestattet. Oder besser gesagt: überrumpelt. Die Drei gehen heute diesen Fragen nach: Kann an einem Arbeitsplatz „Glück“ entstehen? Kann „Glück“ von der Organisationsleitung angeordnet werden? Welcher Zusammenhang besteht zwischen Glück und Zufriedenheit? Können die Grundpfeiler der systemischen Haltung (Neugier, Allparteilichkeit, Wertschätzung, …) in der heutigen Arbeitswelt [immer] angebracht werden und wenn ja: wofür?  Kann es sich eine Führungskraft leisten, den Mitarbeitenden Freiheiten einzuräumen und was dürfen wir dann zu den Leistungsergebnissen erwarten?  Ist „Glückscoaching“ das nächste Tool in der Organisationsentwicklung? Wir freuen uns Euch auch heute wieder eine lebhafte Diskussionsrunde präsentieren zu können.

On this episode, we were able to hit a wide range of topics from passion, marketing, shows, impacts of COVID-19, and some of his awesome projects. Kevin is a rising star in the Leopard Gecko world who has gained a ton of knowledge of his years of breeding and keeping. Throughout the episode, we exchanged a lot of knowledge and opinions so hopefully, you will get something out of this conversation. 

On today's Bulwark Podcast, Defense One's Kevin Baron joins host Charlie Sykes to discuss the Wisconsin election, President Trump's briefings and handling of COVID-19, the firing of Capt. Brett Crozier, American global leadership under President Trump, and divisiveness as a security threat. Special Guest: Kevin Baron.

A mutation that was first discovered in 1999 out Ron Tremper's Tremper Albino project, there has been much debate over what this gene is. Is it Co-Dominant, Incomplete Dominant, Polygenic, Recessive, or does this "gene" really exist? In this episode of the podcast, I had the opportunity to speak with Kevin Baron of Mutant Geckos about his Super Giant projects. Kevin is a relatively new breeder in the hobby, but this hasn't kept him from being super knowledgeable about the genus Eublepharis. Enjoy this awesome free-flowing conversation about his experience breeding. 

Kevin Baron's new book, Presidential Privilege and the Freedom of Information Act (Edinburgh University Press, 2019), is a fascinating analysis of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and how this act, passed in the 1960s and signed by President Lyndon Johnson, has changed the ways that both the Executive Branch and the Legislature operate and engage with each other. Baron dives into the history of information and the role that access to information plays in supporting democracy. He explains much of the debate over freedom of information from the time of the Founding to the contemporary disputes about executive privilege and Congress's right to information. By tracing the evolution of presidential privilege through the post-World War II period, the Cold War, the Red Scare, and the Watergate scandal, Baron examines the ways in which presidents and administrations have protected information, often in the name of national security, and the ways in which the Legislative branch has pursued access to that same information. This book explores the ongoing debates about transparency and secrecy in the government, how FOIA has become a tool for Congress to get relevant information from the Executive, and how the understanding and use of presidential privilege has grown and expanded within this same context. Through deep research, Presidential Privilege and the Freedom of Information Act provides the reader with institutional understandings, policy shifts and reactions, the political dynamics of many of the post-WWII administrations and congresses, all ultimately focusing on the idea of governmental information and the health of democracy.

Tech Editor Patrick Tucker was there. And he spoke with Army Under Secretary Ryan McCarthy, and Army Vice Chief of Staff. Gen. Jim McConville.

This week on the program — from the sidelines of the 2018 Aspen Institute Security Forum: • Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin and Bloomberg's Eli Lake sit down (1:08) with Defense One Executive Editor Kevin Baron to discuss what it's like covering national security in 2018. • Then (30:09) Afghanistan's Ambassador to the U.S., Dr. Hamdullah Mohib, chats with Kevin Baron about the future of that country — where the U.S. military has been fighting for almost 17 consecutive years.
