Links Autism in Christ's Church Church Disabilities Help Disability Specialist in the Handbook Navigating Autism as a Church Leader | An Interview with Michele Portlock Why Your Ward Needs a Disabilities Specialist | A How I Lead Interview with Anna Rast Leading Those with Special Needs | An Interview with Stan Beagley Creating a Culture of Inclusion and Acceptance Meeting the Needs of our Special Needs Children Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights In this episode, Liberty and Robert discuss their book, Autism in Christ's Church, which aims to provide insights and resources for Latter-day Saints regarding autism and how to create inclusive church environments. They emphasize the importance of understanding the diverse experiences of individuals on the autism spectrum and the role of disability specialists in supporting these individuals and their families. Key Insights Diversity of Autism Experiences: Autism is a spectrum, and individuals experience it differently. The book shares various stories that highlight these unique experiences, emphasizing that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to supporting individuals with autism in the church. Role of Disability Specialists: Disability specialists are crucial in church settings, providing tailored support to individuals with autism. Their presence can significantly enhance the church experience for both individuals and their families. Communication and Collaboration: Effective communication between parents, leaders, and disability specialists is essential. Regular meetings and open dialogue can help create a supportive environment that meets the needs of individuals with autism. Social Skills Development: Leaders should focus on helping individuals with autism develop social skills through structured interactions and support, especially during transitional phases like moving into young men's or young women's groups. Utilizing Strengths: Individuals with autism often have unique strengths and interests. Leaders should identify these strengths and provide opportunities for individuals to contribute meaningfully to the church community. Leadership Applications Empower Disability Specialists: Leaders should actively call and support disability specialists in their wards, ensuring they have the resources and training needed to assist individuals with autism effectively. Foster Inclusive Environments: Create a culture of understanding and acceptance by encouraging open discussions about autism and providing training for leaders and members on how to interact positively with individuals on the spectrum. Encourage Participation: Leaders can help individuals with autism find suitable callings that align with their strengths, fostering a sense of belonging and purpose within the church community. 00:04:11 - Origin of the Book "Autism in Christ's Church" 00:04:54 - Robert's Expertise in Special Education 00:06:28 - Resources for Latter-day Saints and Autism 00:07:15 - Structure of the Book: Stories and Experiences 00:08:48 - Liberty's Background with Autism 00:09:36 - Robert's Journey into Special Education

Ever wonder what makes some businesses thrive while others falter? This revealing conversation takes you behind the scenes of an educational institution that defied expectations, expanding from Kumasi to Accra when conventional wisdom said it couldn't be done.At its core, this success story revolves around differentiation – creating something so unique that people will travel 18 kilometers outside Kumasi's city center to experience it. With American architects designing an exceptional campus and strategic investment in teacher quality, the school developed a compelling value proposition that eventually enabled its unprecedented expansion into Accra's competitive educational landscape.The founder shares the guiding philosophy that made it all possible: the three H's – Humility, Hard work, and Honesty. Particularly striking is the counterintuitive approach to growth: investing four million dollars in campus development before building a personal residence, choosing modest vehicles over luxury cars, and prioritizing reputation over displays of wealth. "Africans have the habit of acting successful before they are actually successful," the founder observes, offering a powerful perspective on sustainable entrepreneurship that views success as a journey rather than a destination.Whether you're a business owner, educator, or simply fascinated by stories of innovation against the odds, this episode delivers actionable insights on differentiation, integrity in business dealings, and the patience required for lasting success.

What transforms a small $30,000 investment into a thriving $30 million educational institution? The answer lies in an unwavering commitment to continuous improvement.The journey of building one of Ghana's premier educational institutions reveals powerful lessons about leadership, succession planning, and creating sustainable organizations in Africa. With 2,400 students across multiple campuses in Kumasi and Accra, this school's growth exemplifies how the right mindset creates lasting impact."Success is a journey, not a destination" serves as the guiding philosophy that prevents complacency. Rather than celebrating arrival, the leadership team regularly seeks out gaps in their programs and addresses weaknesses before others notice them. This proactive approach ensures they consistently exceed expectations rather than merely meeting them.One fascinating revelation involves the challenges of succession planning in African institutions. Initially focused on recruiting leadership from outside, they've now implemented robust internal advancement pathways, allowing loyal staff who've been with the school for 10-20 years to rise through the ranks. This shift has improved morale while preserving valuable institutional knowledge.Beyond family business considerations, they're building structures to ensure sustainability regardless of who leads in the future. While their Cambridge-educated daughter may eventually join the leadership team, the founders are clear that family members must earn positions through merit and institutional understanding, not merely through lineage – a refreshing approach in the African business landscape.Looking for more insights on building lasting institutions and navigating succession challenges?

Trust isn't just a moral virtue—it's capital. When an entrepreneur needed to raise $400,000 from American investors for a school in Ghana, they secured the funding based solely on reputation, even from those who had never visited the country. "People give you money even though they have not been here?" government representatives asked in disbelief. The answer was simple: "It is trust, it is integrity."The secret to sustainable business growth lies in what this educational leader calls the "three H's"—humility, honesty, and hard work. Humility keeps you learning and adapting. Honesty builds the foundation of trust that attracts both customers and investors. Hard work, manifested not just in long hours but in strategic thinking and leading by example, inspires your entire team. "If you want quick gains like some young people are doing, you will get it, but it won't last," they caution. True success isn't about cutting corners; it's about building something that endures.After establishing the most respected educational institution in Kumasi, the entrepreneur made what they called "an audacious move" to expand to Accra following their participation in Stanford's SEED program. Despite financial concerns about the expensive East Legon location, they moved forward strategically, bringing their best teachers to ensure quality from day one. The gamble paid off spectacularly—the Accra campus quickly attracted students and now generates more revenue than the original location. But what's most revealing is how they approached this success. When enrollment boomed, instead of celebrating, they became more vigilant: "How about if we fail to meet people's expectations?" This mindset reveals perhaps the most profound lesson of all: genuine success requires remaining humble even when you're in highest demand.Ready to build a business foundation that truly lasts? Listen now to discover how integrity and calculated risk-taking can transform your enterprise—and how the right mindset can turn even your most audacious goals into reality.Support the showWatch the video episode of this on YouTube - https://linktr.ee/konnectedminds

From seven students in a living room to educating over 2,400 students across multiple campuses, Dr. Charles Yeboah's journey building International Community School (ICS) is a masterclass in entrepreneurial patience and purpose. When he and his wife returned to Ghana after studying in America, they faced a common challenge: finding suitable education for their daughter. Their solution? Create it themselves; starting right in their living room.What sets this story apart is Dr. Yeboah's counterintuitive approach to success. "Black people in general have the habit of acting successful before they are actually successful," he observes, explaining how he deliberately avoided this trap. His family lived in four different rented homes over ten years while investing over $4 million in developing their school before building their own house. This disciplined reinvestment strategy, coupled with what he calls the "three H's", humility, honesty, and hard work, created the foundation for sustainable growth.The most audacious chapter came when ICS expanded from Kumasi to Accra in 2015, challenging established international schools in Ghana's capital. Dr. Yeboah's strategy of differentiation through campus design, teacher development, and educational quality paid off; the Accra campus now serves more students than the original Kumasi location. With total investments exceeding $30 million from an initial capital of just $20,000-$30,000, ICS demonstrates the power of patient capital and principle-centered leadership.Today, as ICS celebrates its 25th anniversary, Dr. Yeboah is focused on extending his impact through the Education Foundation, committed to improving teacher development in public schools. His philosophy, "I don't want to die rich," reflects a profound understanding that true success comes from giving back to the society that enabled your rise. Want to build something that truly lasts? Start by remembering where you came from and who helped you along the way.Support the showWatch the video episode of this on YouTube - https://linktr.ee/konnectedminds

Ghana has a reputation for staging some of the most eccentric funerals in the world – boasting extraordinary displays of colour, dancing, deep rooted history, and a strong association with Ghanaian royalty. Hannah Ajala takes the listener on a compelling aural journey as she uncovers the stories behind this unique and complex tradition. In West Africa, end of life celebrations are a far cry from those in the Western world. Each funeral can take weeks or months to plan and they are often more lavish – and expensive - than weddings. Funerals are an essential part of paying respect to the departed. Hannah travels to the cultural capital of the country, Kumasi, to witness a Ghanaian funeral first hand. She delves into the significance of these ancient traditions: the dancing, the dress code, the burial and final funeral rites as well as the role played by the ‘talking drums'.

FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD - PART 4 BY REV. DR. JOSEPH BAAH OBENG

Le Ghana a connu hier, dimanche 8 décembre, une nouvelle alternance pacifique, la quatrième depuis l'an 2000. Et pour s'assurer que tout se passerait pacifiquement, le candidat du pouvoir a reconnu sa défaite et a appelé le vainqueur pour le féliciter. Pourquoi cette victoire de l'opposant John Dramani Mahama ? Et pourquoi une telle stabilité politique depuis 25 ans, sans troisième mandat et sans coup d'État ? Pierre Jacquemot a été ambassadeur de France à Accra. Il a publié La démocratie à l'épreuve aux éditions de l'Aube. Aujourd'hui, il est expert à la fondation Jean-Jaurès et répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Est-ce que vous êtes surpris par cette victoire de l'opposant John Dramani Mahama? Pierre Jacquemot : Non, pas vraiment. D'abord parce que c'est une personnalité bien connue, déjà expérimentée et qui a un programme qui tient la route. Et puis surtout, c'est la démonstration pour moi de la vitalité de la démocratie ghanéenne, avec notamment le respect de l'alternance, puisque Mahama, qui vient d'être élu, remplace le président Akufo-Addo qui était de l'autre parti. Donc, on est dans un cas de figure où le Ghana, comme c'est le cas du Sénégal aussi d'ailleurs, démontre que la démocratie élective, électorale, peut être parfaitement respectée dans un pays africain.Et pourquoi les Ghanéens ont-ils préféré voter pour l'opposition ? Parce qu'on est dans une situation où le pays connaît une fatigue du modèle économique qui a été mis en place depuis un certain nombre d'années et qui se traduit aujourd'hui par une très forte inflation, ce qui est assez nouveau dans ce pays. On a même une inflation qui a atteint à la fin de l'année 2022 plus de 50 %, ce qui est évidemment considérable. Le cédi, qui est la monnaie locale, a chuté très très gravement, augmentant le coût des importations. Et puis enfin, on peut se demander si ce pays ne traverse pas ce que d'autres pays ont connu par le passé, une phase de malédiction du pétrole, de l'or, du cacao, de ses ressources d'exportation, avec toute une série de dérèglements, dont l'inflation, la chute de la monnaie, mais également des affaires de corruption qui ont marqué la fin de la période de Nana Akufo-Addo.Mais Nana Akufo-Addo n'avait-il pas réussi à ramener l'inflation de 50% à 23% par an ? Oui, mais ça reste très élevé, notamment comparé aux pays voisins. On pourrait d'ailleurs noter à cet égard que la zone franc, le franc CFA, qui est tellement décriée dans la région, lorsqu'on traverse une période difficile comme celle de la pandémie ou celle de la crise sur les approvisionnements en céréales du fait de la guerre en Ukraine, ces pays, je pense au Togo, au Bénin ou à la Côte d'Ivoire, les pays voisins ont mieux tenu le choc. Et le Ghana, qui se faisait fort, au début du mandat de Nana Akufo-Addo, de ne pas avoir recours au FMI, a été obligé de passer sous ses fourches caudines pour défaut de paiement depuis deux ans.Le Ghana était la deuxième puissance économique de l'Afrique de l'Ouest jusqu'à ce que la Côte d'Ivoire passe devant ces dernières années. Est-ce aussi un déclassement qui a compté dans le vote des Ghanéens ? Non, je ne pense pas. Je pense que ce qui a compté, c'est la question du pouvoir d'achat au quotidien, donc la baisse du pouvoir d'achat liée à l'inflation, mais également la question de l'emploi. Près d'un tiers des jeunes sont sans emploi, en tout cas sans emploi formel. Également, il y a une question de sécurité alimentaire, ce qui est relativement nouveau dans ce pays, avec un recours massif à des importations de plus en plus coûteuses.Vous qui avez été ambassadeur à Accra, comment expliquez-vous que ce pays, depuis 25 ans, soit beaucoup plus stable politiquement que ses trois voisins francophones : la Côte d'Ivoire, le Burkina Faso et le Togo ? Ce pays a une histoire singulière. Tout ce dispositif, les Ghanéens le doivent à Jerry Rawlings. C'est assez paradoxal puisque Rawlings est arrivé à la suite d'un coup d'État. Il a mis 20 ans à installer des institutions qui aujourd'hui font leurs preuves et garantissent le bon fonctionnement de la démocratie. Et puis il y a une autre réalité qui peut paraître paradoxale, c'est le poids relatif des chefferies coutumières. La colonisation britannique au Ghana était très différente de celle que la France a imposée en Côte d'Ivoire, par exemple, et les chefferies traditionnelles occupent encore un rôle important, en particulier l'Asantehene, qui est le roi des Ashanti, qui est installé à Kumasi, une personnalité exceptionnelle que j'ai eu le bonheur de connaitre, et qui joue un rôle régulateur, notamment dans la gestion des conflits intercommunautaires, par le truchement de l'écoute, de la recherche de compromis, de la responsabilisation, qui sont des données tout à fait exceptionnelles qu'on retrouve dans un pays comme le Ghana. Donc les institutions qui aujourd'hui font leurs preuves, j'en vois une très intéressante dans le programme de Mahama, c'est la place qu'il veut réserver aux femmes dans les nominations, puisque au moins un tiers de ces nominations doit être réservé à des femmes.Et l'ancienne ministre de l'Éducation, Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, va devenir la vice-présidente du Ghana, ce sera la première femme du pays à accéder à ce poste ?Oui, c'est tout à fait révélateur, si vous voulez, de cette évolution. Et puis ce pays abrite aussi le secrétariat général de la zone de libre-échange continentale qui est un grand projet africain. Et le président Mahama, de son côté, veut poursuivre le travail engagé par son prédécesseur pour intensifier ce rôle du Ghana à l'échelle régionale, sinon à l'échelle continentale.À lire aussiGhana: John Mahama remporte la présidentielle, le candidat du parti au pouvoir reconnaît sa défaite
