Animal shelters in the St. Louis region are facing unprecedented overcrowding as the number of surrendered and abandoned pets continues to grow. The Center for Animal Rescue and Enrichment of St. Louis reported a 64% increase in the amount of animals taken in between 2023 and 2024, and shelter staff are currently struggling to take care of more than 100 dogs in a facility that has capacity for 61. Unfortunately, they're not alone in their struggle. Leaders with CARE-STL, Gateway Pet Guardians in East St. Louis, and St. Louis County Pet Adoption Center share the reasons behind the crisis and what residents and lawmakers can do to help.

Summary In this episode of the Customer Service Revolution podcast, Denise Thompson and John DeJulius discuss the importance of fostering a 'yes' culture in customer service. They explore how the word 'no' can negatively impact customer interactions and emphasize the need for employees to focus on what they can do to assist customers. Through engaging anecdotes, including the milkshake metaphor from Cameron Mitchell restaurants, they illustrate how empowering employees to say 'yes' can enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty. The conversation also touches on the role of leadership in creating an environment where employees feel confident to say 'yes' and the potential of AI in improving customer service experiences. Takeaways: The word 'no' should be eliminated from customer service interactions. Empowering employees to say 'yes' enhances customer satisfaction. A positive mindset is crucial for effective customer service. Leaders must create a culture that supports employee autonomy. Understanding customer needs is key to providing excellent service. Training employees to focus on solutions rather than problems is essential. The milkshake metaphor illustrates the importance of a 'yes' culture. Regularly auditing policies can help identify areas for improvement. AI can streamline customer service but should not replace human interaction. Storytelling is a powerful tool in reinforcing company culture.

Company culture is more than a buzzword—it is the foundation that determines whether a business simply survives or truly thrives. In a marketplace defined by constant change, culture has emerged as the key driver of growth, employee retention, and the freedom leaders seek when scaling their companies. Few leaders embody this truth more than Josh Cunningham, Founder and CEO of Rokrbox and Five Star Company Culture. Over the past decade, Josh has built a reputation for transforming organizations by building teams that perform at the highest level. His journey began in real estate, where Rokrbox worked more than three million internet leads for teams across the United States. Along the way, he hired and trained over 400 inside sales assistants, proving that with the right culture in place, talent can be developed, empowered, and retained. That success became the foundation for Five Star Company Culture, where Josh now helps businesses implement systems that put culture at the center of growth. His philosophy is clear: when company culture is strong, employees stay longer, productivity rises, and leaders regain the freedom to focus on strategy instead of daily firefighting. The importance of company culture is even more evident in today's business climate. High turnover, disengaged teams, and rising competition can all erode profitability. Leaders often search for solutions in marketing or operations, but the most sustainable results come from within. A thriving culture attracts top performers, motivates them to achieve more, and creates an environment where people want to contribute their best work. Josh's story highlights how intentional culture-building unlocks scalability. By focusing on values, accountability, and shared purpose, he has shown how even fast-growing businesses can avoid the pitfalls of burnout and constant churn. His companies demonstrate that investing in culture is not a luxury—it is a business strategy that pays dividends in loyalty, innovation, and profitability. For business leaders, the lesson is simple: culture should not be an afterthought. It is the competitive edge. Leaders who understand the connection between culture and performance can move beyond short-term fixes and build organizations that last. They can also create the personal freedom many entrepreneurs dream about but rarely achieve, because the right culture allows them to step back without losing momentum. The phrase "company culture" often conjures images of office perks or team-building events, but Josh's approach goes deeper. It is about aligning people with purpose, setting clear expectations, and rewarding results. It is about creating a workplace where the right people feel inspired to stay and grow, and where leaders can trust their teams to deliver consistently. The conversation about culture is not just theoretical. Businesses across industries are proving that when culture is strong, growth follows. From scaling sales teams to expanding into new markets, the foundation that supports long-term success is always cultural. Companies that neglect this reality risk constant turnover, disengagement, and the inability to grow beyond the owner's direct involvement. Company culture is the key to unlocking both business growth and personal freedom. By looking at Josh Cunningham's journey, it becomes clear that culture is not a side project. It is the system that drives results. Leaders who embrace this mindset will not only scale their businesses more effectively but will also create organizations where people thrive—and where the freedom to focus on the future becomes a reality.

Politicians and pundits have made trans rights one of their top wedge issues. They stir up outrage, and push legislation designed to divide, distract, and control.We've all seen it: bills banning gender-affirming care, bathroom access, policing pronouns, especially in state legislations. Leaders pushing them claim it's about “protecting children” or “upholding values.” But, it's not! This is about consolidating power through fear.And while trans people feel the sting of this, the harm doesn't stop with them. It ripples outward, touching every one of us.Because when anti-trans rhetoric spreads, it erodes compassion, truth, and freedom—for everyone.Send us a private message. *Note: INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS if you'd like us to answer. :-) Support the show

Robert Moseley is the founder and CEO of GTM Engine. GTM Engine is a new AI platform that not only automates the administrative part of sales and sales leadership…but more importantly prescribes leaders how they can have better…more individualized…and more impactful coaching conversations. Coaching is the ultimate sales leadership superpower and the skill that separates the elite sales leaders from the average ones. And research continues to show that leaders are NOT as good or as impactful at coaching as they would like to think they are. Too many rely only on data…or content for coaching. Today, Robert joins the show to share how the best leaders move past the content and become contextual coaches. Contextual coaches outperform content-driven coaches by orders of magnitude. And that's why every leader should pay attention to this conversation and the work that is happening at GTM Engine. You can connect with Robert on LinkedIn here.

When most leaders think about transformation, they reach for tools and tactics. But real, lasting change doesn't start with new methods—it starts with culture. In this episode, I sit down with Phil Gilbert, the former General Manager of Design at IBM, who led one of the boldest reinventions in corporate history. After selling his third startup to IBM in 2010, Phil was asked to transform how IBM's teams worked using design thinking and agile. That effort reshaped the experience of over 400,000 employees and became the subject of a Harvard Business School case study, the documentary The Loop, and coverage in the New York Times and Fortune.We explore how culture drives outcomes, why the team is the atomic unit of change, and how to design a leadership structure that earns trust and creates momentum. Phil brings sharp insight, rich stories, and practical frameworks drawn from a 45-year career spanning startups, scale-ups, and global enterprises. If you're leading change—or trying to get others to believe in it—this conversation is your blueprint.Phil Gilbert is best known for scaling IBM's global design transformation. He was inducted into the New York Foundation for the Arts Hall of Fame in 2018 and named an Oklahoma Creativity Ambassador in 2019. Since retiring from IBM in 2022, Phil has focused on helping business and military leaders shift culture at scale to improve innovation and team performance.Key TakeawaysCulture is the system: Real transformation means rewiring people, practices, and places—not just teaching new skills.Teams are the atomic unit of change: Change doesn't scale through individual mandates. It scales when cross-functional teams deliver new outcomes.Design scales empathy: Phil shares how design thinking isn't just about aesthetics—it's a tool for scaling understanding and improving systems.Transformation needs protection: Change teams need structural support and a leadership “shell” that shields them while engaging the broader org.Momentum beats mandates: Leaders can't impose change—they must earn it by showing results, listening deeply, and integrating across silos.Additional Insights"Every day is a prototype": Phil's mantra that gives teams permission to change, test, and learn continuously.The virus model of leadership: To spread new ways of working, Phil designed his leadership team like a virus—with spikes into HR, finance, comms, and IT.Designers aren't the barrier—systems are: In companies with weak design reputations, the problem isn't the designers. It's the culture around them.Shadow IT kills transformation: Real progress happens when change leaders partner with CIOs—not work around them.Most AI efforts are missing the point: Phil argues that AI transformation fails when it focuses on individuals instead of improving team-level outcomes.Episode Highlights00:00 - Episode RecapBarry O'Reilly recaps the episode's theme, discussing leadership challenges, reclaiming strategic focus, and leveraging frameworks, executive habits, and AI to drive impactful business outcomes.2:26 - Guest IntroductionBarry introduces Phil Gilbert, renowned for leading a major cultural transformation at IBM through human-centered design.

There are moments when the soul calls us forward, only to be met with waves of grief. Sophie is here with us today, navigating the tender intersection of spiritual growth and devastating loss. After ending a relationship that no longer served her, she experienced the unexpected passing of two dear friends. The mind made a painful link: that choosing herself invited punishment, and that old story rooted in childhood pain and shame began to echo louder than her soul's truth. In this session, we explore how grief and growth often arrive hand in hand, and how past programming can make us fear expansion. Sophie's field reveals the belief that vulnerability leads to punishment, and we gently unravel the ancestral and inner child wounds that contribute to this narrative. Together, we remember that grieving does not mean you're broken — it means you're human, and that letting go isn't failure, but part of your sacred unfolding. This episode is a soft, powerful invitation to move beyond black-and-white thinking, reclaim your trust in the universe, and meet yourself in the messy, beautiful middle. May it remind you that your grief is holy, your healing is valid, and your becoming is worth the unraveling.

In this episode of Good Morning BSS World, I had a pleasure of hosting three exceptional professionals who represent both sides of the Atlantic - Shelli Ryan (CEO of Ad Hoc Communication Resources), Michael Nacarato (Head of Third-Party Risk Management and member of IAOP's Strategic Advisory Board), and Jens R. Voigt (Global Outsourcing Leader at eBay). Together, we explored how American companies approach outsourcing, nearshoring, and offshoring - and what this means for Poland and Central Europe.The conversation was inspired by our recent meeting at the Follow the Leaders event in Gdańsk, where we discussed how Polish and Central European businesses can attract more American investors. Shelli emphasized the importance of building a clear narrative and value proposition for Polish service providers - focusing not only on cost but on talent, multilingual skills, and innovation. Michael highlighted the shift from chasing arbitrage to chasing talent and value, especially in the era of AI and automation. Jens shared insights from eBay's global outsourcing strategy, underlining Poland's strengths: education, infrastructure, safety, and stability - all crucial for long-term partnerships.We also talked about the need for a unified, public-private marketing effort to promote Poland abroad - similar to campaigns led by African nations - and how Poland can position itself as Europe's major investment gateway, just like Ireland once did.This episode is a must-listen for anyone in global business services, outsourcing, or economic development. It's a candid, cross-continental conversation about the future of global delivery, talent, and how to bridge American expectations with European excellence.Key points of the podcast:Poland's competitive advantages in the BPO sector include a highly educated workforce, significant infrastructure investments, and a stable regulatory environment, making it an attractive destination within Europe.To attract American businesses, Poland must enhance its public relations efforts, potentially through a public-private partnership to create a unified and aggressive marketing campaign that highlights its technological advancements and safety.Engaging in direct outreach, such as organizing roadshows in the US and inviting American executives to visit Poland, can help showcase the country's capabilities and foster stronger business connections.  Links:Shelli Ryan - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shelliryan/Michael Nacarato – https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-nacarato-cop-90705311/Jens R.

When Hope Feels HardScripture: Romans 15:13 – “Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.”Hope is something we all need.

In this episode of Between Product and Partnerships, Cristina Flaschen talks with Francesca Smedberg, VP of Product at Rillion. Together they explore how product management has changed over the past two decades, what it takes to move from shipping features to achieving outcomes, and how curiosity and collaboration can transform a team.A Career Built on Curiosity and ExperienceFrancesca began her career in market research and spent years helping companies test products and pricing strategies. When she joined a startup in 2009, she started as an analyst and quickly became deeply involved in how products were built. She worked alongside engineers to digitize traditional market research processes, replacing surveys and reports with virtual environments and interactive tools.She was often building tools to solve her own problems, creating workflows that would save time and improve insight for customers. Without realizing it, she was already doing product management. Over time she led analytics, digital production, and eventually the tech and product teams. That broad mix of data, customer, and technical work shaped her leadership style and gave her a deep understanding of how products come together from the inside out.Seeing Product Management MatureFrancesca and Cristina discuss how product management has become more defined as a discipline. Early in her career, most of the focus was on delivery. Teams worried about whether they could build something, not necessarily whether they should.Today the focus is different. Good product management connects discovery, delivery, and business context. It asks questions before committing resources and pushes teams to understand problems before defining solutions. Turning a Feature Factory into an Outcome-Driven TeamWhen Francesca joined Rillion, the company had a long history and a complex platform shaped by mergers and acquisitions. Teams were busy, but their work often felt reactive. She saw an opportunity to help them move from feature volume to measurable impact.Her approach was practical. She encouraged clear priorities and learning through action. Instead of asking what to build next, her teams began by asking why. They defined goals tied to company strategy and measured their success by what changed, not by what shipped.Building Cross Functional TeamsFrancesca describes how she and her engineering leaders restructured the organization to support this new mindset. They built smaller, cross functional teams with clear missions and room to make decisions. This structure encouraged focus and accountability. It reduced the friction of silos and helped people think less about whose job something was and more about what needed to be solved. Mixing people with deep institutional knowledge and those new to the company also brought balance. Lessons for Aspiring Product ManagersFrancesca offers advice for people who want to move into product. She suggests learning from established voices in the product community, studying examples from real companies, and finding mentors who can share their own experiences. She encourages people to start within their current organization if possible. Moving internally allows them to learn the product deeply while building trust across teams.  For more insights on partnerships, integrations, and SaaS ecosystems, visit pandium.comTo learn more about Rillion, go to rillion.com

PREVIEW. Far Right-Wing Parties and Russian Interference in Europe. Judy Dempsey observes that far right-wing parties often rise by protesting the status quo but are quickly rejected in power due to unacceptable governance. Russia is identified as a well-known "outside bad actor" attempting to destabilize EU countries by influencing these anti-EU, anti-NATO groups via social media and cyberattacks. Leaders must focus on serving citizens. 1870 COMMUNARD

When employers say “26 is the new 18,” what they're really noticing is Tim Elmore's Peter Pan paradox in action: the age of authority is dropping while the age of maturity is rising. In this energizing conversation, Tim and Ginny decode Gen Z's “magic and tragic”—their native fluency with tech and AI alongside lagging people skills—and offer hopeful, practical ways to coach rather than complain. You'll hear why childlikeness is fading while childishness expands, how social media turned from connection to performance, and why soft skills (read: people skills) will be the ultimate edge in the AI age. Listen for simple, family-ready reps—hosting adults, letting kids own their schedules, building EQ—and workplace plays like great first days, hobby-like projects, and leading with empathy. We also get real about the gig economy, shrinking loyalty ladders, and why teens need margin, movement, mindfulness, and management to protect mental health and grow grit. You'll leave with language that reframes Gen Z from “problem” to “potential,” and with concrete steps for parents, teachers, and team leaders to build self-awareness, social awareness, and emotional regulation in everyday life. Leaders are dealers of hope—start here, share this episode with a friend who's wrestling with Gen Z, and model the future you want your kids to inherit.

Nurse turnover rates have improved since the pandemic peak, but that doesn't mean we're out of the woods: 40% of nurses report that they intend to leave their job within five years. As nurse leaders turn their attention from fighting fires to finding strategic levers for nurse retention, they may be missing a surprising opportunity: career pathing. Nurse career pathing has traditionally aimed at a core goal: to keep nurses at the bedside for as long as possible. But our research found that, to build a sustainable nursing workforce, nurse leaders need to focus on nurse engagement—not just retention. This week, host Abby Burns sits down with Advisory Board nursing experts Miles Cottier and Allyson Paiewonsky. They break down the state of the nursing workforce and what it looks like to do career pathing in a way that better balances nurses' needs with those of the organizations. Hint: the path may look less like a ladder, and more like a branching river. We're here to help: Radio Advisory Nursing playlist Ep. 245: Headcount might not explain your labor challenges. What will?

When Jimmy Scroggins stepped into leadership at a struggling legacy church in West Palm Beach, the odds were stacked against him. Financial collapse, reputational damage, and years without a pastor created a make-or-break moment for both him and the congregation. In this episode, Jimmy unpacks the hard lessons learned from rebuilding Family Church—from selling property and cutting programs to developing leaders and launching 20 neighborhood campuses across South Florida. He and Sean discuss urgent leadership decisions, engaging high-capacity givers, staying teachable, and building multisite systems that actually work. Welcome to Episode 145 of the Leaders in Living Rooms Podcast with Sean Morgan.

Only two events remain in the 2025 NHRA Lucas Oil season! In this episode of Daily Driver, I'm recapping all the action from Las Vegas, a weekend that favored the points leaders. No lead changes this time, which is something you don't see often this late in the year. 

In this episode of The CEO Podcast, Scott De Long, Ph.D., and Vince Moiso return after a long hiatus to discuss the challenges leaders face in making tough calls during uncertain times in this limited-run series, Leadership at the Crossroads. They open with reflections on the current economic and political landscape, including inflation, tariffs, AI disruption, and fluctuating interest rates of which test a leader's ability to remain calm, focused, and strategic. Scott emphasizes the importance of staying calm and making data-driven decisions rather than fear-based reactions. He encourages leaders to balance instinct with analysis, ensuring decisions are informed by both experience and data. Vince adds that focus is more critical than ever, urging leaders to eliminate distractions from constant news cycles to phone notifications so they can maintain clarity and productivity. Together, they explore how external noise and media bias can influence leadership decisions and why critical thinking and perspective are essential traits for modern executives. The conversation shifts to organizational growth, where Scott and Vince share insights on balancing entrepreneurial drive with operational discipline.
