Podcasts about leadership conference

Wear your Sunday best and hang out at the U.S. Capitol building for your chance to chat with a member of Congress. It's a realistic way to meet the people who owe their jobs to our tax dollars, as Andrea explains–based on her own experience–in this week's bonus show. But beware of the sociopathically ambitious, dead-inside Congressional staffers enabling Mitch McConnell, and, before him, Dianne Feinstein, to cling to power long after it was time to step down.  The rest of this week's bonus show, available in full to our Patreon, Substack, and YouTube members who power Gaslit Nation, is the recording of Monday's salon. The discussion includes Andrea meeting up with Tori Amos after her show on her tour for her new powerful album In Times of Dragons, with songs like "Shush" about MeToo thanking Courtney Love for being early warning the world about Harvey Weinstein; why the DNC may be running out of money and going into debt–even though blue wave elections have ripped through the country since Trump returned to power. And we also discuss how to tell fact from fiction in the disinformation war driven by Russia in its war on Ukraine and all democracies.  We look forward to bringing you important discussions in the coming weeks, including Casey Michel, a kleptocracy expert sanctioned by Russia and author of the new book the United States of Oligarchy: How America's Wealthiest Ally with Dictators, Weaken the U.S., and Destroy Democracy and Maya Wiley, President of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, the largest civil rights coalition in America, on how we expand the power of the vote–before it's too late.  Thank you to everyone who supports Gaslit Nation–we could not make this show without you. To join our community of listeners, get bonus shows, invites to exclusive events like our Monday salons, and more, sign up at Patreon.com/Gaslit or GaslitNation.Substack.com–discounted annual memberships are available and you can give the gift of membership.

In the first episode of our countdown to the Boss Lady Women's Leadership Conference, hosts Teresa Rand and Jennifer Roberts kick off a five-part series inspired by this year's Women in the Workplace survey and the conference theme, "Diving Into Your Potential." Rather than unpacking the full survey data here (that's saved for the conference), Teresa and Jennifer open up about a gap they noticed in the results: the difference between how confident women feel in their own leadership and how often they actually feel valued at work. Through honest personal stories, they explore what it  really means to feel seen, valued, and confident.  CONNECT WITH US:Connect with Teresa on LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/teresarand⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Back Porch Communications (Jennifer Roberts): ⁠⁠https://www.backporchcom.com/⁠⁠Learn more about Boss Lady events and coaching at Ladder Network:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.laddernetwork.org

Most of us picture democracy being decided on Election Day. Hannah Fried spends her life on the part nobody watches — the quiet, local decisions made months and years before a single ballot is cast.Hannah is co-founder and CEO of All Voting Is Local, a national nonprofit working year-round in eight states to remove voting barriers for Black, Brown, and Native American communities. She and her co-founder spent years saying "somebody should start an organization" focused on the local officials quietly deciding how elections run — then realized they were the somebody. They built it from her kitchen table with no money, got incubated by The Leadership Conference, and went independent in 2022.In this episode, you'll hear:Why the decisions that make or break your right to vote — where polling places go, what hours they're open, how vote-by-mail works — get made by local officials long before any ballot is castThe playbook for turning one county-level win into a national conversation — and why story is the engine that does itWhy "it's never too late to get involved" is more than a platitude, plus the concrete ways any person can plug in this yearIf you've ever wondered whether slow, local, unglamorous, years-in-the-making work actually adds up — this conversation is your answer.

The Beef Quality Assurance program has been around for a while, but it's always evolving. Jill Welke finds out from one of the best! Dr. Sandy Stuttgen, Associate Professor and Ag Educator with UW-Madison Extension in Taylor County leads coordination of the states program. She tells Welke that it's a serious responsibility, providing food for consumers. Through the BQA program, beef producers can perform at the level that consumers and processors expect. Milder weather today gives Wisconsinites a break. Stu Muck says what's missing is rain. Although there were storms that moved through the state, it brought with it very little rain. Muck says there's not much on the horizon either. Christmas in July may seem like excessive planning, but auction planning in July is not. Ashley Huhn with the Steffes Group joins Pam Jahnke to talk about it. He says July has routinely turned out to be their busiest booking month. Huhn says that kind of advance planning allows his team to work ahead on everything from pictures to descriptions. Paid for by Steffes Group. The Wisconsin State FFA Officer team just returned from Washington, D.C. and the annual Leadership Conference. Cheryl Zimmerman, state executive director of the WI FFA Association, says they had an accelerated course on advocacy before heading to "the hill" for conversations. It's all about weather and tariffs in the marketplace this morning. John Heinberg with Total Farm Marketing out of West Bend says heat and dry are the buzz words. Crop quality ratings slipped a bit in some areas this week at a key time when some crops are at critical growth stages. At the same time, the government has announced a 25% increase in tariffs against Brazilian soybeans/oil. That's caused the market to surge higher on domestic supplies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this special preview episode, Teresa and Jennifer sit down with the Boss Lady Women's Leadership Conference's opening keynote speaker, Jaime Marco, creator of the UnFunkt® Movement. Together they explore why so many accomplished women feel stuck—not because they lack ability, but because they're surrounded by noise, expectations, and distractions that keep them from reaching their full potential.Instead of chasing bigger goals or working harder, Jaime shares why intentional micro-moves and human-first leadership can help us reconnect with who we already are. This conversation is the perfect introduction to this year's conference theme, 'Diving Into Your Potential,' and a great discussion starter for July Ladder Network groups. CONNECT WITH US:Connect with Teresa on LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/teresarand⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Back Porch Communications (Jennifer Roberts): ⁠https://www.backporchcom.com/⁠Learn more about Boss Lady events and coaching at Ladder Network:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.laddernetwork.org

This week, Michael is joined by Maya Wiley, president and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, for a wide-ranging conversation on the power of coalition building in a moment of deep challenge. Drawing on her experience as a lifelong activist and the daughter of influential organizers, Wiley offers perspective and stresses urgency.

english version belowZwei Personen berichten vom gleichen erfolgreichen Projekt. Nur eine wird befördert. Warum?Die eine sagt: „Das Projekt lief richtig gut. Wir haben alle Ziele erreicht, der Kunde war zufrieden und das Ergebnis wurde pünktlich geliefert.“Die andere sagt: „Das Projekt lief richtig gut. Wir haben alle Ziele erreicht und ich habe dabei einiges gelernt. Zum Beispiel gab es einen Moment, in dem der Kunde kurzfristig neue Anforderungen eingebracht hat. Früher hätte ich wahrscheinlich versucht, das erst einmal allein zu lösen. Diesmal habe ich direkt Feedback eingeholt, die offenen Fragen mit dem Team besprochen und gemeinsam entschieden, wie wir vorgehen. Das hat viel Zeit gespart. Beim nächsten Mal würde ich das sogar noch früher tun.“Beide sprechen über Erfolg. Aber sie senden unterschiedliche Signale. Die erste Person zeigt vergangene Leistung, die zweite zusätzlich auch zukünftiges Potenzial.In dieser Folge spricht Dr. Theresa Fehn mit Dr. Janey Zheng, Associate Professor in Leadership and Organizational Behavior an der Durham University Business School, über die Frage, wie wir Erfolg im Arbeitskontext kommunizieren.Viele Menschen gehen davon aus: Wer gute Leistung bringt, sie sichtbar macht und die eigenen Erfolge klar präsentiert, wird früher oder später als „Führungsmaterial“ erkannt. Doch Janey Zhengs Forschung zeigt: Ganz so einfach ist es nicht. Entscheidend ist nicht nur, dass wir über unsere Leistung sprechen, sondern vor allem wie wir unseren Erfolg rahmen.Erfolg erzählt, was war. Lernen zeigt, was noch möglich ist. Warum genau dieser Unterschied für Karriere und Führungspotenzial entscheidend sein kann, zeigt diese Podcastfolge.english versionTwo people report on the same successful project. Only one of them gets promoted. Why?The first says: “The project went really well. We achieved all our goals, the client was satisfied, and the result was delivered on time.”The second says: “The project went really well. We achieved all our goals and I learned quite a lot along the way. For example, there was a moment when the client brought in new requirements at short notice. In the past, I probably would have tried to solve it on my own first. This time, I asked for feedback right away, discussed the open questions with the team, and we decided together how to move forward. That saved us a lot of time. Next time, I would involve the team even earlier.”Both talk about success, but they send different signals. The first person demonstrates past performance. The second also signals future potential.In this episode, Dr. Theresa Fehn speaks with Dr. Janey Zheng, Associate Professor in Leadership and Organizational Behavior at Durham University Business School, about how we communicate success at work.Many people assume that strong performance, visibility, and clearly presenting one's achievements will sooner or later make someone be recognized as “leadership material.” But Janey Zheng's research shows that it is not quite that simple. What matters is not only that we talk about our performance, but above all how we frame our success.Success tells the story of what has been achieved. Learning shows what might still be possible. This podcast episode explores why exactly this difference can be crucial for careers and leadership potential.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open im Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

english version below“Hast du kurz eine Minute?”Eigentlich wollten Sie gerade eine Präsentation fertigstellen, einen Kunden anrufen oder eine wichtige Entscheidungsvorlage für die Geschäftsführung vorbereiten. Gleichzeitig steht jemand in der Tür, der Orientierung braucht, Feedback sucht oder ein kurzes Sparring möchte.Das ist die Realität moderner Führung: zwischen eigener To-do-Liste und Verantwortung für andere. Zwischen Task-Modus und Leadership-Modus. Zwischen dem Anspruch, gute Führung zu leisten, und der Frage, wann dafür eigentlich Zeit sein soll.Denn während klassische Führungsideale von Inspiration, Vision, Entwicklung und Orientierung sprechen, sieht der Alltag oft anders aus: Führungskräfte wechseln ständig zwischen Rollen – mal sind sie Entscheiderin, mal Kollege, mal Expertin, mal Sparringspartner.Dieser Wechsel kostet Aufmerksamkeit, Energie und kann schnell zu Überlastung, Rollenkonflikten oder dem Gefühl führen, keiner Rolle wirklich gerecht zu werden.Dr. Diana Rus ist Associate Professor für Organisationspsychologie an der Universität Groningen in den Niederlanden. In ihrer Forschung geht sie der Frage nach, wie Arbeit so gestaltet werden kann, dass Menschen darin aufblühen und ihr Potenzial entfalten können.In dieser Folge erklärt sie mit Theresa Fehn, warum wir Führung nicht nur als individuelle Kompetenzfrage betrachten sollten, sondern auch als Frage des Systems: Wie sind Rollen gestaltet? Was wird tatsächlich belohnt? Und wie können Organisationen Führungskräfte so unterstützen, dass sie nicht dauerhaft zwischen Anspruch und Realität aufgerieben werden?Eine Folge über Führungsrollen zwischen Ideal und Realität – und darüber, warum gute Leadership nicht nur in den Händen der einzelnen Führungskraft liegt, sondern ebenso in den Rahmenbedingungen, die sie tragen und entfalten lassen.english version:“Do you have a minute?”They were just about to finish a presentation, call a client, or prepare an important decision brief for the executive team. At the same time, someone is standing in the doorway: looking for guidance, asking for feedback, or simply wanting to briefly talk something through.This is the reality of modern leadership: caught between your own to-do list and the responsibility for others. Between task mode and leadership mode. Between the aspiration to lead well and the question of when there is actually time to do so.Because while classic leadership ideals often speak of inspiration, vision, development, and orientation, everyday work often looks very different. Leaders constantly switch between roles: sometimes they are decision-makers, sometimes colleagues, sometimes experts, sometimes sparring partners. This constant switching requires attention and energy and can quickly lead to overload, role conflict, or the feeling of not fully living up to any of these roles.Dr. Diana Rus is Associate Professor of Organizational Psychology at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. In her research, she explores how work can be designed in a way that allows people to thrive and unfold their potential.In this episode, she speaks with Theresa Fehn about why leadership should not only be understood as a question of individual competence, but also as a systemic one: How are roles designed? What is actually rewarded? And how can organizations support leaders in a way that prevents them from being worn down between aspiration and reality?An episode about leadership roles between ideal and reality — and about why good leadership does not rest solely in the hands of individual leaders, but also in the conditions that support them and allow leadership to unfold.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open im Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

english version belowChronische Erkrankungen sind im Arbeitsleben keine Ausnahme — sie sind Realität. Und doch werden sie in Teams oft übersehen, tabuisiert oder totgeschwiegen.Viele Führungskräfte möchten empathisch reagieren, sind aber unsicher: Was darf ich fragen? Was ist zu persönlich? Wann unterstütze ich — und wann überschreite ich eine Grenze?In dieser Episode sprechen wir mit Sasha Cook, Assistenzprofessorin an der Universität Amsterdam, darüber, inwiefern chronische Erkrankungen im Arbeitsalltag die verfügbaren Ressourcen beeinflussen, wieso die Auswirkungen dennoch oft unterschätzt werden und weshalb Kommunikation und echtes Zuhören entscheidend sind.Eine Folge über Führung, Fürsorge und die Frage, wie wir Arbeit so gestalten können, dass Gesundheit kein Tabuthema bleibt.Chronic health conditions are not the exception in working life — they are part of reality. And yet, in many teams they are often overlooked, treated as taboo, or simply not talked about.Many leaders want to respond with empathy, but feel uncertain: What am I allowed to ask? What is too personal? When am I being supportive — and when am I crossing a line?In this episode, we talk with Sasha Cook, Assistant Professor at the University of Amsterdam, about how chronic conditions shape the resources people have available in everyday work, why their impact is still often underestimated, and why communication and truly listening matter so much.An episode about leadership, care, and the question of how we can design work in a way that health no longer has to remain a taboo topic.⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open im Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

english version below70% der Beschäftigten sagen, das Schlimmste an ihrem Job sei die direkte Führungskraft.Von dieser unbequemen Erkenntnis berichtet Peter Harms, Wirtschaftsprofessor am Culverhouse College of Business der University of Alabama im Gespräch. Seine Forschung dreht sich um die Persönlichkeit und Entwicklung von Führungskräften sowie psychisches Wohlbefinden am Arbeitsplatz. Dabei schlägt er die Brücke zwischen der akademischen Forschung und der Anwendung im Kontext von Führungskräfteauswahl und -entwicklung in der Praxis.Was macht also eine Führungskraft aus, mit der Menschen wirklich gut arbeiten können? Welche Rolle spielen Persönlichkeitseigenschaften dabei? Müssen Führungspersönlichkeiten immer extravertiert, entscheidungsfreudig und direkt sein? Und sind solche Merkmale überhaupt überhaupt über die Zeit hinweg stabil und in verschiedenen Kontexten hilfreich?Die Forschung zu all diesen Fragen ist leider oft erstaunlich weit weg vom Führungsalltag. Diese Podcast-Episode thematisiert, warum sowohl Führungskräfte als auch Forschende manchmal davor zurückschrecken, „sich die Hände schmutzig zu machen“, was sich ändern müsste, damit Forschung wieder näher an die Realität kommt und was eine gute Führungspersönlichkeit letztlich in der Realität ausmacht.70% of employees say that the worst part of their job is their direct supervisor.This uncomfortable insight is shared by Peter Harms, Professor of Management at the Culverhouse College of Business at the University of Alabama. His research focuses on leader assessment and development, personality, and psychological well-being at work. In doing so, he bridges the gap between academic research and real-world selection and development practices.So what makes a leader someone people can truly work well with? What role do personality traits play? Do leaders always need to be extraverted, decisive, and direct? And are these traits actually stable over time and helpful across different contexts?Unfortunately, the research on these very questions is often surprisingly far removed from everyday leadership practice. This podcast episode explores why both leaders and researchers sometimes shy away from “getting their hands dirty,” what would need to change to bring research closer to reality, and what truly makes a good leadership personality in practice.⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open im Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BlackBox/Open bei Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In this episode of In The LOOP Podcast, Jordan Jo sits down with Judy Wagner for a heartfelt conversation about purpose, mentorship, relationships, branding, faith, and the power of planting seeds that can change lives. From growing up on a ranch in Avon, Montana, to building iconic Western brands like Gator Ropes and helping shape the legacy of Montana Silversmiths, Judy shares the stories, lessons, and moments that defined her journey in the Western industry. The two also dive into the meaning behind “Nice Job Cowgirl,” the importance of encouraging others, navigating different seasons of life, building authentic relationships, and why purpose should always remain at the center of everything we do. Fresh off receiving the 2026 Pam Minick Lifetime Achievement Award at the Premier Women's Rodeo and speaking at the Cowgirl 30 Under 30 Leadership Conference, Judy reflects on legacy, leadership, mentorship, and the impact of simply believing in people. At the heart of the conversation is a reminder that success is never built alone. The seeds we plant, the relationships we nurture, and the encouragement we give to others can leave a lasting impact far beyond what we may ever see.

On Tuesday, May 12, the Center for Civil Rights and Technology hosted its 2026 annual convening, "All Eyes on Tech: Power, Protection, and the Fights for Civil Rights in the Age of AI," at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC. The Center is a joint project of The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and The Leadership Conference Education Fund, and it engages in advocacy, education, and research on issues at the intersection of civil rights and technology policy.During the event, Tech Policy Press editor Justin Hendrix hosted a conversation with Dr. Ruha Benjamin, an acclaimed author, professor of African American Studies at Princeton University, and founding director of the Ida B. Wells Just Data Lab; and Alejandra Montoya-Boyer, vice president of the Center for Civil Rights and Technology. The conversation touched on the necessity of cultural and narrative work as the foundation for policy work; how to build collective power and alternatives, not just guardrails; and why it is important to focus on the people behind technology and their motivations, not just technology itself.
