Being thankful at all times may not come easily or naturally, but it benefits us in every key area of our lives. A posture and practice of gratitude doesn't just give us higher levels of emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being - it impacts our physical health too.   From heart health to sleep, practicing gratitude has been proven to reduce stress, lower chronic illness, and even prevent disease.   In an age of high anxiety, depression, and burnout, gratitude is a powerful antidote. Through the practice, we get to truly surrender to God's will and that can give us an immense amount of peace.   Our brains aren't naturally inclined to appreciate, so we must develop a gratitude muscle rather than treat it as a one-time behavior.   Considering that our brains aren't naturally wired for gratitude, how do we intentionally make it our posture? Why is gratitude so closely connected to surrender?   In this episode, I'm joined by physician, scientist, and my brother, Dr. Joe Parambil. We talk about the positive impacts of gratitude and how to make it a part of our daily lives.   Gratitude goes hand-in-hand with the process of submission. You can't be grateful if you have your expectations, ambitions, and agendas that have to be met. -Dr. Joe Parambil    Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode    -The connection between science and faith How do we see God's hand orchestrating the incredible miracles of science?    -Gratitude goes hand-in-hand with submission and surrender How do we maintain a posture of thankfulness even when we're not getting what we want?   -The health benefits of thankfulness How does gratitude affect physical health and even neural pathways?   Guest Bio  Dr. Joe Parambil is a physician, scientist, and man of faith. Dr. Parambil is a Staff Member in the Department of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Critical Care Medicine and Assistant Professor of Medicine at Cleveland Clinic's Lerner College of Medicine. He is currently the Director of the Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Center of Excellence.

Dr. Kathryn Bender wanted to give something a try. Knowing the subject matter she teaches at the University of Delaware can, at times, be a bit dense and complex, she decided to tap into the craze surrounding the world's biggest pop star in hopes of reaching more students, especially women. Guess what? Her hunch was right. In the eight-part workshop “Data Enchanted: Transforming Numbers Into Knowledge,” Bender, an assistant professor of economics at Delaware's Lerner College of Business & Economics, dives into the meaning behind Taylor Swift data - from album streams to ticket prices and the far-reaching impact of her concert tours. What inspired Bender to take this teaching approach? What has she learned and her colleagues learned from it? Host Matt Leon takes a look at what happens when Tay Tay mania makes its way into the classroom.

We live in a world of paradoxes. When we especially face competing demands, we easily slip into either-or choices. But why do we have to choose one over the other? Isn't there a way to overcome these challenges without having to give up something? This episode's guest says there is—through both/and thinking. J.R. Lowry is with Wendy Smith, the Dana J. Johnson Professor of Management and the faculty director of the Women's Leadership Initiative at the Lerner College of Business and Economics, at the University of Delaware. Wendy has co-authored a book called Both/And Thinking, where they explore the nature of the tensions we experience and how we can use them to be productive rather than stumble over them. In this conversation, she shares the idea that led her to write the book and the insights they have gathered to help organizations struggling to take the step towards innovation, diversity, and inclusion. Why do we suffer from either/or thinking? What does both/and thinking look like? How do we navigate the paradoxes in life? Tune in to find out Wendy's answers and more!

Wendy K. Smith is the Dana J. Johnson Professor of Management, faculty director of the Women's Leadership Initiative at the Lerner College of Business and Economics, University of Delaware and fellow at The Academy of Management. She earned her PhD in organizational behavior at Harvard Business School, where she began her intensive research on strategic paradoxes—how leaders and senior teams effectively respond to contradictory, yet interdependent demands. Working with executives and scholars globally, she received the Web of Science Highly Cited Research Award (4 years in a row) for being among the 1 percent most-cited researchers in her field and received the Decade Award from the Academy of Management Review for the most cited paper in the past 10 years as well as a fellow at the Academy of Management. Her work has been published in such journals as Academy of Management Journal, Administrative Science Quarterly, Harvard Business Review, Organization Science, and Management Science. She has taught at the University of Delaware, Harvard University, and the University of Pennsylvania–Wharton while helping senior leaders and middle managers all over the world address issues of interpersonal dynamics, team performance, organizational change, and innovation. Her book, Both/And Thinking is published by Harvard Business Review and was #1 new release on Amazon. Wendy lives in Philadelphia with her husband, three children, and the family dog.   Wendy had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “There's other pathways to things that we don't often see” (9:25). “Where I could really feel impact was at this very local level” (12:25). “The big idea of [my book] Both/And Thinking is that we live in a world where we tend to pull things apart and make a choice between them and see the either/or, see the black and white, and we argue that's limited and it's detrimental at worst. There's a better way of seeing these things intertwine with one another” (15:40). “The people that are least confident about knowing who they are, what they're going to do in the world, and whether they're going to succeed, are college students” (16:20). “This sense of having to prove [oneself] constrains actually experimenting and being [oneself] along the way” (17:05). “A dilemma is a moment in time defined in a very specific time and space where you're choosing between two different options and it's begging you to make a choice” (26:45). “Paradoxes are these persistent, ever-present tensions that underlie our dilemmas and keep popping up” (27:00). “There's this constant tension that we all feel around performing well, doing well, being in the moment, and learning and growing and feeling that discomfort of learning and growth” (27:10). “The dilemma of passion vs. performance shows up all over the place and we tend to pit those against each other” (36:10). “The more that we feel passionate, the more that we feel joyful, the more engaged and the better performing we are. These opposing pressures actually reinforce each other” (36:30). “I think an invitation is a chance to allow people to have their own point of view rather than telling them what they think and providing the respect to others that I'm curious about that point of view” (38:10). “One of the ways that we tend to ‘either/or' a lot is in relationship with other people” (38:30). “We grow from taking a pause from our regular routines and lives” (42:45). “Part of ‘both/and' is pulling out or decisions into a broader perspective where we are making these micro shifts, oscillating, experimenting, balancing, trying along the way, that not every decision is the ultimate moment of truth” (47:15). “How do you navigate in a space that's not ideal for who you are?” (50:20). “Activism has a very black and white perspective; I am going to assert what I believe and be loud and proud about it. There's a place for that and it's an important piece, and it doesn't always get stuff done. What we really need in order to move forward is more nuanced diplomacy and collaboration across opposing ideas” (52:50). “Leaders need to have a varied toolkit in how they lead” (55:15). “Frankly, there's a lot more common ground on many of these [political] issues than there is difference” (57:20). “It's not just your own individual performance, but your performance and your success is dependent on how you raise up and create the conditions for other people's success as well” (1:04:50).   Additionally, you can find everything you need to know about Wendy's book, Both/And Thinking, here.

In today's conversation, I am joined by Dr. Wendy Smith, coauthor of Both/And Thinking: Embracing Creative Tensions to Solve Your Toughest Problems. I don't think we realize it all that much, but our lives are full of paradoxes. Questions like: How can we each express our individuality and be a team player? How do we balance work and life? How can we take care of ourselves while supporting others? How can we manage the core business while innovating for the future? Believe it or not, these are some of the everyday paradoxes that make up our lives. And because our brains tend to default to either/or choices, we choose one option over the other. We deal with uncertainty by asserting certainty. BUT this is not the best way, as you will learn about in today's conversation with Wendy Smith, a co-author of one of my new favorite books: Both/And Thinking. Wendy is the Dana J. Johnson Professor of Management and earned her Ph.D. in organizational behavior at Harvard Business School, where she began her intensive research on strategic paradoxes—how leaders and senior teams effectively respond to contradictory, yet interdependent demands. She is a wealth of amazing information and I can't wait for you to learn from her today. Show Notes: [00:42] In today's conversation, I am joined by Dr. Wendy Smith, coauthor of Both/And Thinking: Embracing Creative Tensions to Solve Your Toughest Problems. [01:46] Wendy is the Dana J. Johnson Professor of Management and faculty director of the Women's Leadership Initiative at the Lerner College of Business and Economics, at the University of Delaware. [03:57] Wendy shares about herself, her background, and the work she does. She is a professor of organizational behavior and business leadership management.  [06:27] We all experience these tug of wars in our lives.  [09:37] Our decisions really have multiple layers to them. They show up for us as a dilemma - these competing ideas in which you feel like you have to make a decision.  [11:37] Underlying our dilemmas are these paradoxical tensions.  [14:23] It is not that we are constantly trying to choose between always trying to be super disciplined or always trying to be spontaneous. If we go extreme on one side it becomes problematic in so many ways.  [15:36] The goal is to recognize that there is a relationship between discipline and spontaneity and that discipline enables us to be spontaneous as long as we don't go so extreme. Spontaneity enables us to have more structure in our world.  [17:08] These tensions drive us into either/or thinking. That kind of thinking is limited at best and detrimental at worst.  [19:39] Often when change happens you feel like you have to change significantly and essentially you are throwing out the baby with the bath water by innovating everything. [21:44] Polarization is when you go down a path and you are sure that if you are right about the way you are thinking, someone else must be wrong. [24:35] Businesses should continue to be operationally successful as they move up their S curve. Continue to service your existing customers and be efficient with your existing products and at the same time be scanning, exploring, experimenting, and innovating to figure out what the new S curve looks like.  [27:09] The problem isn't the problem. The way we are framing and thinking about the problem is the problem.  [28:10] You have to change to stay the same.  [30:56] Wendy shares a story about a group that built an inn to honor and value what was key to the culture of Newfoundland.  [34:04] To keep what you have, you have to change and we should embrace that.  [35:35] Her number one tip for writing a book is just to sit and do it.  [38:04] Wendy and her co-author worked together to structure the ideas of the book.  [40:38] There is something deeply paradoxical about behavioral economics (and Wendy loves that!)  [43:02] Just changing the question will invite you into a whole different way of thinking.  [44:02] Melina's closing thoughts [45:55] Embracing paradoxes can have a huge impact. There is so much opportunity there.  Thanks for listening. Don't forget to subscribe on Apple Podcasts or Android.

Wendy Smith: Both/And Thinking Wendy Smith is the Dana J. Johnson Professor of Management and faculty director of the Women's Leadership Initiative at the Lerner College of Business and Economics, University of Delaware. She earned her PhD in organizational behavior at Harvard Business School, where she began her intensive research on strategic paradoxes—how leaders and senior teams effectively respond to contradictory, yet interdependent demands. She has received the Web of Science Highly Cited Research Award for being among the 1 percent most-cited researchers in her field and received the Decade Award from the Academy of Management Review for the most cited paper in the past 10 years. Her work has been published in such journals as Academy of Management Journal, Administrative Science Quarterly, Harvard Business Review, Organization Science, and Management Science. She has taught at the University of Delaware, Harvard, and Wharton while helping senior leaders and middle managers all over the world address issues of interpersonal dynamics, team performance, organizational change, and innovation. She is the author with Marianne Lewis of Both/And Thinking: Embracing Creating Tensions to Solve Your Toughest Problems. In this episode, Wendy and I discuss the dangers of either/or thinking and how that tendency limits our effectiveness. We explore how to shift to both/and thinking in order to resolve the most challenging problems. Plus, we share key tactics that will help us do this in more practical ways. Key Points Framing a decision as an either/or will often minimize short-term anxiety, but limits creative and innovative long-term possibilities. While easy to see both/and opportunities for others, we're likely to approach things as either/or when it's ourselves. An outside perspective from someone who's not emotionally connected is helpful. Changing the question we are asking is the most powerful to navigate paradoxes. Moving up a level when facing tough decisions can help us see the big picture. Consider shifting from “making a choice” to “choosing” in order to lead us towards better outcomes.

Intro.(1:32) - Start of interview.(2:10) - Larry's "origin story." He grew up in Wilmington, Delaware ("which explains why I have corporate governance in my blood.") He attended Girard College in Philadelphia, then went to the University of Delaware (BA Economics) and Cardozo School of Law (JD). After graduation he worked as an associate at Cravath for 6 years and then joined academia with Cardozo (10 years) moving later to Boston College Law School. He later switched to George Washington University Law School where he's been for the past 10 years.(6:04) - He is the founding faculty director of GW in NY (now in its 6th year).(8:46) -  His experience serving on boards of directors. Currently with Constellation Software. In the nonprofit sector, he is a Trustee of the Museum of American Finance, a Smithsonian affiliate; Member of the Dean's Council of Lerner College of Business of the University of Delaware; a Member of the Editorial Board of Financial History, the magazine of the Museum of American Finance; and a Member of the Advisory Board of the Ben Graham Centre for Value Investing at the Ivey Business School, University of Western Ontario.(10:42) - How he got started researching Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway: In 1996 he organized a conference at Cardozo Law School on Warren's letters to Berkshire shareholders. This resulted in the publication of The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America (now in it's 5th edition).(15:33) - His article on "Warren Buffett's 10 Commandments for Corporate Directors" (2017):Select an outstanding CEO.Set CEO performance standards.Adopt an owner orientation.Replace managers promptly when needed.Speak up to colleagues.Reach out to shareholders.Adjust social atmosphere of the boardroom.Compensation Committees: Negotiate.Audit Committees: Pry.Choose Well. Warren adds these qualifications that make for high-quality directors: 1) business savvy, 2) a strong interest in the specific company, and 3) an owner-orientation.(32:12) - Origin and scope of the "Quality Shareholder Initiative" focused on long-term concentrated shareholders. Dubbed "high quality shareholders" by Warren Buffett in 1978, the initiative takes its title from that designation.(38:42) - His take on the meme stock phenomenon: "I'm concerned about it, particularly its form of 'grievance capital' (there is a political aspect to it, for some it's not only about money)."(41:34) - His take on ESG. Two different aspects:Why indexers choose ESG: 'they have a systemic business model.' They need a universal set of principles.Quality shareholders have been seeking 'doing good' for ever.(48:12) - His take on dual-class share structures. There is no correlation between dual-class shares on quality shareholders. There is no particular preference for dual class shares one way or another. ["Given the wide variety of approaches to shareholder voting, quality shareholders examine dual class structures on a case-by-case basis. Among companies with dual class structures are a substantial cohort with high quality shareholder density."](52:67) - The books that have greatly influenced his life:Economics, by Paul Samuelson (1948)Economic Analysis of Law, by Richard Posner (1973)(54:14) - His mentors:Originally, his headmaster at Girard College.

Dr. Alka Chandna, VP for PETA's Laboratory Investigations Department talks to Emil Guillermo about the abuses found at the esteemed Cleveland Clinic. A PETA investigator went undercover at the Lerner College of Medicine there and found numerous examples like mice with holes drilled into their heads without pain relief and dead mice in crowded cages. The National Institutes of Health now says it will investigate after it received PETA's 42-page complaint last week. Chandna explains that the Animal Welfare Act exempts mice, but another regulation can apply and threaten the Cleveland Clinic's federal funding that amounts to $100 million. See the pictures and video of the investigation at PETA.org.  

While we can’t be sure what’s in store for us with the future of COVID-19, we can try to learn from the past to tackle this situation in the smartest way possible. That means looking at previous infectious disease epidemics and understanding zoonotic diseases like this one, that are passed from animals to humans, and how they’re different from the other pandemic diseases we’ve been able to eradicate. I was excited to connect with Dr. Steven Gordon to dig into these topics deeper, today on The Doctor’s Farmacy. Dr. Gordon is the Chairman of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and Professor of Medicine at the Lerner College of Medicine at Case Western University. His clinical interests include infective endocarditis including cardiac electronic implantable device infections as well as opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients. He is a Fellow in the American College of Internal Medicine and a Member of the Infectious Disease Society of America. Dr. Gordon is the person to talk to when it comes to gaining a better understanding of infectious diseases. He explains some of the unique characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 and how they will dictate the way we move forward with healthcare and as a society in the coming years. The good news is that Dr. Gordon has a positive outlook about our ability to cope with COVID-19. *For context, this episode was conducted on May 1, 2020Here are more of the details from our interview:Lessons learned from previous infectious disease epidemics (3:11)Unique characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 and how they will influence our ability to move forward as a society over the next few years (6:12)Evaluating infection rates, antibody testing, and mortality rates (9:39)Do we need widespread testing, and is it even possible?
