In this KaiNexus Continuous Improvement webinar, Mark Graban (author, speaker, consultant, and Senior Advisor at KaiNexus) is joined by Tracy O'Rourke (Lean consultant, coach, and co-author of The Problem-Solver's Toolkit) for a powerful session on:“Leveraging Psychology for Effective Behavioral Change with Process Gemba Walks.”Get slides and moreGemba walks are a cornerstone of Lean and continuous improvement, but too often they fail to create real change. Why? Because simply walking the floor and asking questions isn't enough. To truly shift behaviors and sustain improvements, leaders need to understand the psychology of how people think, feel, and respond in the workplace.In this webinar, you'll learn how to:✅ Use psychology to make Gemba walks more effective and engaging✅ Identify behaviors that support or undermine a culture of improvement✅ Encourage employees to speak up without fear, building psychological safety✅ Avoid the pitfalls of Gemba walks that feel like “management by walking around”✅ Reinforce positive change through coaching and structured follow-up✅ Apply practical strategies for habit formation, motivation, and cultural alignmentTracy shares lessons from her work helping organizations implement Lean in healthcare, government, and private industry, while Mark offers insights from his books Lean Hospitals, Measures of Success, and The Mistakes That Make Us. Together, they highlight how blending Lean tools with behavioral science leads to stronger, more sustainable results.Who should watch:Leaders seeking to improve employee engagement and cultureLean practitioners and continuous improvement professionalsManagers frustrated by Gemba walks that don't “stick”Anyone interested in connecting psychology, leadership, and operational excellenceResources & Links:Learn more about KaiNexus Continuous Improvement SoftwareExplore our full webinar libraryTracy O'Rourke's resources

The Writings of Frederick Douglass on Abraham Lincoln, acclaimed scholars Lucas E. Morel and Jonathan W. White assemble Frederick Douglass's meaningful and poignant statements about Abraham Lincoln, including a dozen newly discovered documents that haven't been seen for 160 years. Measuring the Man brings together, for the first time, every substantive comment Frederick Douglass made about Abraham Lincoln. Spanning more than three decades, this revelatory collection traces Douglass's complex, evolving assessment of the man who led the nation through the Civil War and emancipation. Readers will encounter the distrust and vitriol Douglass directed at Lincoln throughout much of the Civil War, including his anger and frustration with the president as he moved slowly, but methodically, toward emancipation. Douglass's writings also reveal how three personal interactions between these two great men led to powerful feelings of friendship and mutual admiration. After Lincoln's assassination—as Jim Crow laws and political violence gutted the hard-won rights of Black Americans—Douglass expressed greater appreciation for Lincoln's statesmanship during the Civil War and praised him as a model for postwar America.There is no one better than Frederick Douglass to offer a critical assessment of the Great Emancipator and savior of the Union. His reflections not only convey Lincoln's contributions to the nation but also teach today's generation timely lessons on how to fulfill the promise of the American republic. Measuring the Man sheds new light on the most critical period of American history and will transform the way we think about these two extraordinary leaders.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

This week, join host Jim Ervin as he welcomes another Woman of the Blues. Alexandria Bailey, aka Lexie Blue, came up in Las Vegas during her early life, occasionally joining her adoptive parents on stage as they performed, and the musician bug took hold of her early on. Following her move back to Michigan, she took out an ad on Craig's List and put her first band together. She has since gotten married, and formed another band with her husband, but she also formed her own Blues-based band, ‘Lexie Blue' in 2023. She has since competed in Memphis during the International Blues Challenge, and is an active participant in the National Women in Blues events. In fact, during her visit to Beale Street, she buddied up with two other ladies and they are all presenting a Ladies Only event in Kentucky and Michigan this fall. Great conversation with an incredible Woman of the Blues….please enjoy our chat with Lexie Blue!Website: https://www.lexieblue.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LexieBlueBand Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1EznkhE2ee541dhaFxRYAj?si=F0XVDSfaROmjQyw2gQvn6w YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmrxDR50TsSqpLHNHN1zLKg Women in Blues from Beale StreetCovington, KY (Madison Theater) October 3: https://madisontheater.com/Westland, MI (Token Lounge) November 7: https://madisontheater.com/ _________________________Facebook: Time SignaturesYouTube: Time SignaturesFacebook: Capital Area Blues SocietyWebsite: Capital Area Blues SocietyFriends of Time Signatures _______Website: University of Mississippi Libraries Blues ArchiveWebsite: Killer Blues Headstone ProjectWebsite: Blues Society Radio NetworkWebsite: Keeping the Blues Alive Foundation

The Government's opted against a significant energy shake-up -- rejecting calls to re-nationalise or split up the big gentailers. Instead, it'll offer the Crown-controlled companies more capital to invest in generation projects. It will also establish a Liquified Natural Gas import facility, give the Electricity Authority greater power, and speed up consenting renewable energy projects. Meridian is supportive of the announcement, calling it bold. CEO Mike Roan told Kerre Woodham the affordability of electricity is a challenge that's mitigated by the investments made into new generation. He says the Government is trying to bolster those investments to bring stability and certainty back to the market. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Episode 3 "Pharmaceutical preventative measures" of the series "How to prevent anxiety in children undergoing urological procedures", MSc. Gülhan Karaöz-Bulut (NL) and Dr. M. İrfan Dönmez (TR) discuss how medications can support anxiety reduction in paediatric urological care. They begin by emphasising that sedation should not be a goal on its own but part of a broader, child-centred strategy aimed at preventing trauma and building trust. The episode reviews several commonly used agents - nitrous oxide, midazolam, dexmedetomidine, clonidine and ketamine - with clear explanations of their benefits, limitations, and suitability for different procedures.The speakers provide guidance on how each medication affects the child's experience, with practical considerations such as onset time, duration, side effects and how they may impact diagnostic results. Special attention is given to the impact of sedatives on urodynamic studies, highlighting where certain agents (like dexmedetomidine or ketamine) may alter bladder function. They also address administration methods, such as intranasal and oral routes, and the importance of planning around food intake and hydration.Throughout, the discussion underscores that medication should be tailored to the individual child and procedure, always supported by experienced clinical staff. The episode closes with a strong reminder that safe and effective sedation enhances both procedural success and the child's well-being.*See references and additional research information hereFor more EAU podcasts, please go to your favourite podcast app and subscribe to our podcast channel for regular updates: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, EAU YouTube channel.

Ballot measures have given voters the power to pass life-changing policies that lawmakers often won't — from raising the minimum wage and expanding healthcare access, to protecting reproductive rights and curbing predatory payday lending. But now, the process itself is under threat. New Report: ATTACKS ON DIRECT DEMOCRACY DOUBLED IN 2025 Ballot Measure Rescue Campaign In this episode, I speak with Kelly Hall, Executive Director of The Fairness Project, about a new report showing how conservative lawmakers are working to undermine direct democracy. With nearly 150 bills introduced across the country, these efforts would make it harder for citizens to place initiatives on the ballot and harder to pass them once they're there. We discuss what's at stake, how these attacks are spreading, and why defending ballot measures is essential to protecting the will of the people. (00:01) Attacks on Direct Democracy Conservative lawmakers are attacking the ballot measure process, threatening direct democracy and silencing voters. (12:57) Undermining Direct Democracy Supermajority requirements, single-subject rules, and bureaucratic hurdles hinder direct democracy and civic engagement. (23:33) Arkansas Advocates Protecting Ballot Measures Missouri's political maneuvers target direct democracy and reproductive rights, including attempts to restrict abortion and gender-affirming care. (35:19) Protecting Direct Democracy Florida's restrictive ballot measures face challenges, but litigation and public support continue to protect direct democracy. Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever noticed how much time we spend measuring things in life? We keep track of promotions, paychecks, grades, likes, followers, even steps on our watches. Measuring isn't the problem, it's just that sometimes we're measuring the wrong things.That's exactly what Jesus addresses in Matthew 25. In His story of the talents, the Master doesn't reward the servant for results, fame, or accomplishments. He celebrates something else entirely. This Sunday we continued in our series MULTIPLY, looking at how we recalibrate our hearts to heaven's scoreboard and rediscover the joy of living faithfully with what God has placed in our hands in a message called, “What the Master Measures”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuIf you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

In Episode 2, “Non-pharmaceutical preventative measures" of the series "How to prevent anxiety in children undergoing urological procedures", Dr. Lisette ‘t Hoen (NL) and Dr. Sofie Schilling (NL) discuss how thoughtful, non-medication-based approaches can significantly ease procedural anxiety in children. Drawing from their experience at the Erasmus MC -  Sophia Children's Hospital, they share the importance of assessing each child's age, emotional needs and prior medical experiences to tailor supportive care.The conversation highlights the critical role of communication - not only with children but also with their families - as a foundation for trust and reassurance. The speakers explain how giving children a sense of control, even in small choices, helps reduce anxiety and increase cooperation. They present a range of effective tools, including bubble play, search-and-find books, stress toys and virtual reality headsets, each adapted to the child's developmental stage.Particular attention is given to cognitive distraction techniques that actively engage a child's attention, leaving less mental space for fear. The episode also addresses what can be done during emergencies or at night when child life specialists are unavailable - emphasising that even small, simple gestures by clinical staff can have a big impact.Finally, the discussion turns to newborns, often overlooked in anxiety prevention. The speakers explain how skin-to-skin contact, pacifiers, breastfeeding, and glucose water can all contribute to a calmer, less stressful experience, even in the earliest stages of life.This episode offers highly practical insights for anyone involved in paediatric urological care - underscoring that anxiety prevention can often be achieved with empathy, creativity and the right non-pharmaceutical tools.For more EAU podcasts, please go to your favourite podcast app and subscribe to our podcast channel for regular updates: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, EAU YouTube channel.

Ballot measures give voters a chance to participate in direct democracy while providing nonprofit organizations with a powerful platform to educate the public about issues they champion. In this episode, we discuss California's pending redistricting ballot measure and other developments in direct democracy with returning guest Emma Olson Sharkey. Attorneys for this Episode • Tim Mooney • Susan Finkel Sourlis • Emma Olson Sharkey, Elias Law Group The Importance of Ballot Measures ·       Ballot measures give voters direct power to shape laws and policies, bypassing legislatures. ·       For nonprofits, they're a powerful platform to educate the public and advance mission-driven issues. ·       Emma Olson Sharkey—partner at Elias Law Group and one of the nation's leading ballot measure experts—returns to share insights (last heard in ROTG 96). California's Prop 50: Mid-Cycle Redistricting ·       Background: California has an independent redistricting commission that drew maps in 2021 for the 2022 elections. ·       New twist: In response to Texas' recent partisan maps, Governor Newsom and allies pushed for mid-decade redistricting. ·       The ballot measure: Prop 50, passed by the legislature and signed by the Governor, will go to voters in a special election on November 4, 2025. Redistricting Through Ballot Measures ·       Ballot measures have long been used to reform redistricting across the U.S. ·       Examples:   - Successful: Colorado (2018), Michigan (2018), Missouri (2020), Ohio (2018).   - Unsuccessful: Ohio's most recent attempt. ·       Mid-cycle redistricting isn't new: Texas pioneered it in 2003 under Tom DeLay, and the playbook has returned in 2025. What Nonprofits Need to Know ·       501(c)(3) Public Charities: May engage in ballot measure advocacy—it counts as lobbying. Key distinction: 'Vote yes/no on Prop X' = permissible lobbying; 'Vote for Candidate Y' = prohibited partisan activity. ·       Because Prop 50 is rooted in partisan battles, public charities must tread carefully and seek legal advice before weighing in. ·       Generally safe activity: nonpartisan voter engagement (e.g., get-out-the-vote drives, voter registration), but seek counsel especially around Prop 50. ·       501(c)(4)s and Labor Organizations: Have far greater leeway—no cap on lobbying. But California's strict regulatory environment requires attention to registration and reporting obligations. Restricting Access to Ballot Initiatives ·       Since 2016, conservative legislatures have increasingly tried to restrict citizen-led ballot measures. ·       States in the spotlight: North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Missouri, Florida, Oklahoma, Arkansas. ·       Many proposals fail, but recent years have seen more succeed, especially in Florida and Arkansas. ·       Missouri is considering both mid-cycle redistricting and ballot measure restrictions in the same session. A Bit of Good News ·       South Dakota victory: A federal court struck down H.B. 1184's nine-month filing deadline for ballot measures as unconstitutional, reaffirming citizens' First Amendment rights. ·       Practical impact: Keeps the window open for grassroots groups to gather signatures and qualify measures.

On this episode of the 12th Step Podcast, we're joined by therapist Colby to tackle some tough but important listener questions:     1.    What happens to a spouse when they see their partner only taking half measures in recovery?     2.    Are you a tourist in recovery—just visiting but not truly living it?     3.    Are you working the 12 steps for yourself or only to save your marriage—and why the latter will never last? Join us for an honest conversation about what real recovery requires, the impact half-hearted efforts have on loved ones, and how true transformation starts with doing the work for yourself.

Profitability is a word that makes many lawyers cringe. We know firms measure it, but the methods and metrics often feel murky—or worse, toxic to firm culture. Still, ignoring profitability is not an option if you want to succeed and thrive in BigLaw. In this episode, I break down what profitability really means inside large firms, why it's far more than just gross billings, and how to take control of the numbers that impact your compensation, partnership prospects, and long-term career.  From cost structures and volume to realization and collections, I share how firms evaluate lawyers and practices, and the concrete steps you can take to ensure you're seen as a profitable and valuable member of your firm. At a Glance: 00:00 Why profitability is uncomfortable for many lawyers but unavoidable in firm evaluations 01:20 Why profitability metrics can feel toxic and how firms define them in different ways 02:39 Revenue versus profitability—why $5 million billed doesn't mean $5 million in profit 03:59 Partner cost per revenue dollar and how staffing models impact profitability 05:10 High-volume, lower-margin practices versus high-margin, resource-intensive matters 07:11 Comparing a $15 million practice with 15% margin to an $8 million practice with 30% margin 08:12 Why collections matter more than billings if the firm isn't getting paid 08:41 Understanding your standard rate, average billed rate, and why the gap matters 10:06 Realization rate explained with examples and what your firm expects from you 12:38 Collections as the true test of profitability and what firms conclude about lawyers who can't collect 14:18 The risks of unreliable clients, poor billing practices, or weak client control 15:28 How cost allocations and overhead factor into your profitability picture 16:22 Using dashboards, financial analysts, and legal operations pros to understand your data 17:13 Asking the right questions of CFOs and practice leaders to align with benchmarks 17:36 Why profitability is multi-dimensional and how to shift the conversation from toxic to strategic Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts & Spotify Do you enjoy listening to Big Law Life?  Please consider rating and reviewing the show!

The post Which “Higher Standard” Measures Actually Make Sense for Pastors appeared first on Church Answers.

My guest today is Anders M. Greene-Crow. Anders teaches at the Woods College of Advancing Studies and is a former Professor of English at Boston College. More recently, Anders has been preparing for the New York state bar exam, while also co-hosting the podcast “Say Podcast and Die!,” about R.L. Stine's book series, Goosebumps. Today, we are discussing Anders's first book, Austerity Measures: The Poetics of Food Insecurity in Early Modern English Literature (U of Pennsylvania Press, 2025). Austerity Measures is a brilliant intervention in how we read early modern poetry. Crow looks at a range of lyric poets and writers in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, including Thomas Tusser, George Herbert, Robert Herrick, Anne Bradstreet, and Thomas Tryon. Austerity Measures argues that early modern poets used literary form to model solutions addressed to pressing concerns about food insecurity and food ethics.
