Podcasts about meetings

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: I work for a small software company on a team of about 7 or 8 engineers. I like working here. I like the people, the autonomy, the pay, my boss, and the stack among other things. I try to remind myself of this regularly so I don't take it for granted. I've been here for about 2.5 years and would love to continue working here. Our CTO, like many, has become a big AI cowboy coder. Every few months, he vibe codes a new project and then decides to interrupt the full workloads that we have a limited number of engineers to do to hand his project off to be cleaned up, worked into the product, and solve all of the problems that remain once actually put into practice. This usually ends up going to a different engineer per project, who is then tied up with the CTO's whims and is no longer available to do the work planned by product. Our EM knows this and knows the frustration and lost velocity, but what can he do? (rhetorical, not the question) Most recently, I was tasked with implementing some reporting dashboards he did into the product, but he specifically asked me to make it in such a way that he can continue to work on and add to because he can't be bothered to run the actual product. This is very concerning to several of us. He has no clue what he's writing or how bad it is. We've talked about perhaps making him do PRs, but a) who can make him, he's the CTO, and b) he'll have no clue what to do with PR pushback given that he has no clue what he wrote. And again, who can make him actually fix it if he asks us to rubber stamp it? (rhetorical, not the question) I've been listening to the show for years and I've talked to friends at other companies, so I know this is everywhere. Is it as everywhere as it seems? Is it worth finding a new place to work where the CTO isn't running so rampant? As I stated before, I'd rather not leave, but if I talked about that as a concern, I don't want it to sound like an ultimatum, even if maybe it is at some level. Is this just the new reality for us, or is there something that can be done? I am a senior software engineer at a big tech company. I live in central Europe but my team is in the US and I'm 9 hours ahead. I have 7:30 pm meetings and sometimes take an hour before and/or after this meeting to prep or follow up. Previously I slept in later and started later to deal with these meetings. However, now my daughter is starting kindergarten and I wake up early (5-6AM) to be with her, drop her off, etc. Now in the evening meetings my brain is fried and I can't even articulate myself well. The next day I think about so many things I wish I had said in those meetings. I can't quit as I make 160K right now and I would only be making 60-80K tops in my country and have some financial commitments. Relocation to the US is also not an option because I have kids and don't want them to move. So far I have been skipping meetings and my manager has not expressed concern but I feel so detached from my team. I don't even know what most of my peers are working on. It feels like I am out of ideas to make this better. Please share your space wisdom with me :)

The Boston Tea Party (1773) — Colonists protesting British taxation dumped 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor, sparking the American Revolution. Tea became a symbol of resistance and "taxation without representation."In the chill December air of 1773, Boston Harbor lay restless under a gray sky, its waters reflecting the tensions that had simmered for years between the American colonies and the distant British crown. The streets of the city pulsed with frustration. For nearly a decade, colonists had chafed under parliamentary taxes imposed without their consent—first the Stamp Act, then the Townshend duties—each one a reminder that they had no voice in the decisions that governed their lives. “Taxation without representation” had become a rallying cry, whispered in taverns, shouted in town meetings, and printed in broadsides that fluttered through the streets. Tea, that ordinary everyday drink, had become the unlikely flashpoint of a gathering storm.Parliament had passed the Tea Act that spring, a measure designed less to raise revenue than to rescue the struggling British East India Company from financial ruin. The company was granted a monopoly to ship its surplus tea directly to the colonies, bypassing middlemen and undercutting both legitimate merchants and the thriving trade in smuggled Dutch tea. The price would actually be lower for consumers, but the principle remained: a tax still had to be paid upon arrival, and accepting the tea meant accepting Parliament's right to tax the colonies at will. In other ports—New York, Philadelphia, Charleston—the consignees resigned under pressure, and the ships turned back. Boston was different. Governor Thomas Hutchinson, determined to uphold the law, refused to allow the vessels to leave without unloading and paying the duty.The first ship, the Dartmouth, arrived on November 28, carrying 114 chests of East India Company tea from China. Crowds gathered. Meetings filled the Old South Meeting House. Guards from the Sons of Liberty watched the wharves day and night to ensure nothing was landed. Then came the Eleanor on December 2, and finally the Beaver on December 15. By the morning of the sixteenth, three ships rode at anchor near Griffin's Wharf, their holds heavy with more than ninety thousand pounds of tea—Bohea, Congou, Souchong, Hyson, and Singlo—worth nearly ten thousand pounds sterling, a fortune in those days. The twenty-day legal deadline for the Dartmouth was about to expire. If the duty went unpaid, customs officials could seize the cargo and sell it. That morning nearly five thousand people, a third of Boston's population, packed into the Old South Meeting House and spilled into the surrounding streets. Voices rose in debate. Samuel Adams and other leaders pressed for the ships to return to England with their cargo intact. Governor Hutchinson remained unmoved. As darkness fell and the meeting dragged on without resolution, a signal passed among the crowd. War whoops echoed through the hall. Men began slipping away toward the waterfront.Under cover of night, somewhere between sixty and one hundred and fifty colonists—many of them members of the Sons of Liberty, some disguised in blankets and soot to resemble Mohawk warriors—moved in disciplined groups to the three ships. They were not a wild mob. They worked with quiet efficiency, knowing the harbor well, knowing the holds. Axes and tomahawks cracked open the wooden chests. The tea, dense and fragrant, was heaved over the sides. For nearly three hours the work continued, methodical and almost silent except for the splash of leaves hitting the water and the occasional order from a commander. Crew members on board offered no resistance. British warships nearby stayed still. When the last chest had been emptied, the men swept the decks clean, thanked the captains for their non-interference, and melted back into the city. Full Content More Podcasts

"Joint prayer was prominent in the meetings. Requests for Christ's blessing on their preaching, church planting, and holiness of life were common. Days were appointed in the churches for prayer when special needs arose." -Ron Miller For more information, visit CBTSeminary.org

In today's episode, we discuss two verses from James 4 that warn against gossip, secret meetings, and judgement of brothers and sisters in Christ: Jenn shares personal experiences and biblical examples to illustrate how gossip can be detrimental to the church. Judgement is not about calling out sin, but rather speaking against others to manipulate or destroy their reputation. The difference between judging and discerning - examples from James 4:11-12, Romans 14, and 1 Corinthians 5. As Christians, we're not to abandon the church, but follow the law of love and encourage a thriving, God-honoring church. Jenn encourages listeners to be mindful of their words and actions, and to take the time to get both sides of the story in order to discern the truth. If you're interested in learning more about how to navigate difficult situations like gossip in the church and how to treat others with love and respect, tune in to this episode for insightful discussion on judgement and love.

Many people don't miss out on opportunities because they aren't qualified, they miss them because they don't ask effectively. In this episode, you'll learn how to strengthen every request you make. In this episode you'll get five tips: Be discerning, not pushy. Confidence isn't demanding or entitled. It's knowing when an ask is appropriate, respecting the other person's perspective, and being willing to hear either yes or no with grace. Discernment is what separates confidence from pressure. Don't bury the ask. Stop spending minutes explaining the backstory before you get to what you actually want. Lead with the request, then provide context if it's needed. Don't negotiate against yourself. State your request with confidence instead of discounting yourself before the other person has even responded. Don't confuse hints with requests. Hoping someone picks up on subtle cues isn't the same as asking. Be clear and specific about what you need. Don't let fear choose your words. Replace hesitant language like "I was wondering if maybe..." with clear, confident communication that reflects your value. The biggest opportunities often belong to the people who are willing to ask clearly, confidently, and respectfully. Your next "yes" may be waiting on your next ask.   Write a review If you enjoy this podcast, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen.

My stomach in my throat, I was unable to get the words out (in spite of being in a senior leadership role).  Then, I heard my boss shut down the meeting. My heart sank. I was mortified. She pulled me aside and said, "You didn't trust your gut. You could've tabled the meeting like I did." Why didn't that option occur to me in the moment? Why did I feel like I needed permission? That was the day I set out to change. I began a journey of personal growth to discover the root of the problem. Once I did, I wanted every woman to experience that same freedom. I'm now on a mission to silence self-doubt in 10 million women in 10 years by giving them simple strategies to speak up and ask for what they want in the boardroom and beyond, resulting in more clients, job promotions, and negotiation wins.

Most leaders measure meeting effectiveness by how much time is spent. But the real cost of bad meetings has little to do with the clock. Poorly run meetings create unclear decisions, weaken accountability, slow execution, and erode trust across the organization. Over time, these hidden costs reduce an organization's ability to move quickly and achieve results. In this episode, we explore why decision clarity is one of the most important leadership disciplines and how a simple three-question framework can dramatically improve meeting outcomes. Key Takeaways ·         Unclear decisions create future work and repeated conversations ·         Recurring meetings often signal deeper leadership and alignment issues ·         Trust is built when meetings consistently produce clarity and accountability ·         Decision velocity is a critical driver of organizational performance ·         Every meeting should end with clear purpose, decisions, and ownership Discussion Questions 1.                       How often do team members leave your meetings with different interpretations of what was decided? 2.                       What recurring meetings in your organization may exist because of a lack of clarity elsewhere? 3.                       Where is decision velocity being slowed by repeated discussions? 4.                       What would improve if every meeting ended with clear ownership and next steps? 5.                       How much organizational trust is being built or lost through your meeting culture? Leadership Challenge For the next 30 days, end every meeting by answering three questions: 1.                       Why were we here? 2.                       What was decided? 3.                       Who owns the next step? Track how often issues reappear after decisions have been made. You may discover that meeting effectiveness is less about time management and more about leadership discipline.

President Trump and Bibi Netanyahu will meet today before attending Lindsey Graham's funeral. Volodymyr Zelensky will also be in the mix today, and there may be a deal between Zelensky and Trump, as Zelensky is said to have made Trump happy by winning the war in Ukraine against Russia. Mamdani has announced more details about his government-run grocery stores, which he campaigned on and are coming soon. In addition, he may have committed a crime by releasing pied-à-terre tax information about owners of their secondary apartments and homes, which could be seen as doxing. New tapes have come out displaying Joe Biden's mental decline before he became president.  Mark interviews NY Post columnist Michael Goodwin. Michael recaps with Mark about Friday's White House Correspondents' Dinner. Mark and Michael try to understand Mamdani's motive for coming out, saying he will arrest Bibi Netanyahu and displaying information for people with second homes, highlighting the pied-à-terre tax on secondary homes. A big question looms about Mamdani showing up at the 9-11 victims' ceremony in September, which may cause issues, since many victims' family members don't want him there.  A new video from Savannah Guthrie has come out, continuing to demand answers and help in finding her mother. Her recent video suggests she may be targeting one person, given how she speaks about it. President Trump may scold Bibi for releasing secret info about the war and other things in the USA. Dr. Anthony Fauci may be exposed big time tomorrow during a hearing about his journals, and Mark explains how Senator Rand Paul has made it his mission to expose Fauci, and we may see that happen Wednesday. Fauci having a Pardon makes it hard for him to get in trouble. Rosie O' Donnell called Trump a rapist on The View yesterday, which may result in a lawsuit for ABC again, which follows ABC's George Stephonolpus saying the same thing about Trump that cost ABC money. Mark interviews streaming host Bill O' Reilly. Bill explains how the White House Correspondents' Dinner was a setup by reporters and correspondents, specifically on the left like CNN, CBS, and more, to try to bait Trump into going crazy; did it work? Mamdani may run the city up in massive debt because who's paying for his new grocery store plan? Bill and Mark believe taxes will go up as a result of Mamdani's plans. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

High Stakes Meetings

Meetings don't consume time. They create leverage. The moment a business begins to grow, the doctor faces a choice: remain the person solving every problem or become the leader who develops people capable of solving them. That transition rarely happens by accident, and it often reveals itself in the way meetings are run.  In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the Millionaire Meeting Framework, a seven-step process designed to transform meetings from routine conversations into high-leverage opportunities for alignment, accountability, leadership development, and execution. From creating clarity around PRIORITY to empowering team members to think critically and bring solutions instead of problems, this episode provides a practical roadmap for moving beyond owner-operator thinking and building a business that can grow through people rather than depend on them.In This Episode You Will Discover:  Why the most valuable meetings often start with a question most leaders skip  The hidden reason smart teams continue solving the wrong problems  A framework that develops leaders instead of creating more dependence  How one simple question can completely change the quality of team conversations  The difference between a meeting that consumes time and one that creates leverage   Episode Highlights 02:10 - Meetings don't consume time. They create leverage, and the best leaders know how to multiply their impact through them.  05:17 - The fastest leaders aren't the ones who rush meetings. They're the ones who bring a framework.  07:14 - Question 1: How are you doing? A one-minute check-in sets the tone before the business begins.  08:20 - Question 2: What is our priority? Every great meeting starts by identifying the one constraint that matters most.  11:28 - Question 3: What is the objective of this meeting? Clarify the problem before trying to solve it.  15:08 - Question 4: What is your 1-3-1? Great leaders don't collect problems. They develop critical thinkers.  18:41 - Question 5: How can I help you? Support replaces rescue when a leader chooses coaching over taking ownership of every task.  20:47 - Question 6: Do we have a solution? Alignment happens when expectations become clear agreements.  21:02 - Question 7: What is your takeaway? Every meeting ends with do what, by whom, and by when. 21:45 - Imaging technology is evolving rapidly, and chiropractors have more opportunities than ever to improve efficiency and patient care. Dr. Pete sits down with J.R. Marsee from Success Partner Blue Ridge Imaging to explore turnkey imaging solutions, ongoing support, and the growing role of AI in modern chiropractic practices. Together, they discuss how the right technology partner can help practices operate with greater confidence today while preparing for the future.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Blue Ridge Imaging please visit: https://blueridgeimagingtechnologies.com Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Simon's live update for LBC with Aasmah Mir presenting.

Today, Eric explores one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding AI. Stay tuned as he explains why AI will not build your business, and why building a successful business remains entirely your responsibility as an entrepreneur or business owner. Your Vision AI can help you brainstorm, improve your wording, and challenge your thinking, but it cannot define your vision. Only you can decide what kind of company you want to build, what type of freedom you want, and where you want your business to go. Trust As information becomes cheaper, trust becomes more valuable than ever. AI can write proposals, research prospects, and prepare you for meetings, but it cannot build trust, read body language, handle objections, or make someone feel understood. Accountability AI cannot hold you accountable. It can tell you what to do, but it cannot make you do it. It cannot make sales calls, follow up, delegate more, or have uncomfortable conversations. Hard Decisions AI can give you input and help you evaluate your options, but you are the one who must make difficult decisions. Whether you're firing someone, walking away from a client, or making a major investment, leadership requires courage, not computation. Consequences Responsibility can never be outsourced. AI can provide advice, but as a business owner, you are responsible for the decisions you make and the consequences that follow. The Value of AI AI can help you brainstorm, research, create SOPs, write proposals, support your marketing, prepare meetings, role-play sales calls, and accelerate learning. It reduces the value of repetitive work and routine tasks, allowing you to focus on the work only you can do. Summary As AI becomes more capable, your vision, leadership, judgment, relationships, courage, and accountability become even more valuable. Your competitive advantage is not AI—it's how you use it while continuing to lead your business.

The White House says Donald Trump's meetings with Israel and Ukraine's leaders were both positive and productive. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met separately with the US President at the Oval Office earlier today. Zelenskyy says he discussed Patriot interceptor missiles and other ideas which could help his nation's fight against Russia. US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking Netanyahu's visit marks his first face-to-face meeting with Trump since the start of the Iran war. He says the Israeli leader is pushing for further military escalation, after claims some of Iran's nuclear programme has been moved to an underground facility.

"Shortly after being initially formed, Particular Baptist churches were widely practicing associational meetings.

Journalist Jonathan Swan's book, ‘Regime Change,' co-written with fellow ‘New York Times' reporter Maggie Haberman, is a portrait of President Trump's second term – which Swan calls "unrecognizable" from term one. The reporting duo interviewed over 1,000 sources for the book, including the president himself. Their work adds rich detail to developments that were generally known, and explores stories that had somehow slipped under the radar. Swan spoke with Fresh Air contributor and former politics reporter Dave Davies. Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter Follow us on Instagram Subscribe to our YouTube channel Check out the Fresh Air ArchivesSee pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
