New research has found that nocturnal critters are doing just as much good in terms of pollination as their day time equivalents. Lead researcher Max Buxton talks to Jesse about their findings watching creatures of the night at work.

Researchers at Queen's University in Canada have established a method that, for the first time, can detect indirectly when one thought ends and another begins. Dr Jordan Poppenk and his team call them “Thought Worms,” consisting of consecutive moments when a person is focused on the same idea.This is an extraordinary window into the mind for anyone in professional communications and marketing. Scientifically understanding how consciousness flows from one thought to the next, and the rate at which this happens, gives us keen insight into understanding, and yes, the ability to persuade effectively. For example, how many thoughts will a person actually have while drinking a cup of coffee? And does the action itself (sitting down for coffee) influence how we think?    In this episode we talk with the lead researcher, Dr Jordan Poppenk to better understand our Thought Worms.Guest: Dr Jordan PoppenkCanada Research Chair in Cognitive NeuroscienceContact Dr Poppenk through Queen's UniversityDownload the research paper Share your Halloween story via https://www.speakpipe.com/StoriesandStrategies Stories and Strategies WebsiteDo you want to podcast?

New research highlights the actual energy (kcal/kJ) absorbed from nuts was significantly less than what's on the food label. The energy content of all food globally is done using the Atwater System - a system founded more than 120 years ago by Wilbur Atwater. But this system is flawed - it doesn't take into consideration what happens inside our gut and how our body metabolises food. Nuts and seeds have a tough fibrous exterior. We don't fully break them down to extract the energy from them or absorb the fat. A portion remains ‘locked' into their fibrous cell walls and excreted out. In a new systematic review (presented at the Dietitians Australia conference but not yet published) from the research team at the University of Wollongong, 21 published studies on the topic were pulled together to summarise what we know so far.    They discovered that: Almonds had 18.5 kilojoules per gram - 26% less than measured by the Atwater system Walnuts had 21.8 kilojoules per gram – 22% less than measured by the Atwater system Cashews had 20.5 kilojoules per gram - 14% less than measured by the Atwater system Pistachios had 22.6 kilojoules per gram - 5% less than measured by the Atwater system Which is an important reminder that calorie counting should be used as a tool rather than a strict mandate. So don't be afraid to start including a healthy 30g (1.06 ounce) serving of mixed nuts and seeds on a daily basis!

New researched published today at the Dell Technologies Forum in Dublin has shown the vital role that employees play in driving digital transformation projects for business in Ireland. The survey of 200 business and IT leaders in Ireland reveals 74% of Irish respondents regard their people as their greatest asset in unlocking the potential of technology. After two years of accelerated digital transformation, half of IT leaders in Ireland say their organisation knows what it takes to digitally transform a workforce, but after such rapid change, many employees are now facing a challenge to keep up the pace. What's more, eight in ten (80%) believe their organisations underestimate how to engage with their people properly when planning transformation programmes. The results undertaken by Vanson Bourne for Dell Technologies highlight how the recent period of rapid transformation is leaving businesses and their workforce in need of time to recharge, reflect and refine before embarking on new or iterating on projects. Despite the huge progress and efforts of the past few years, the research highlights how there is still a potential for transformation to stall as 59% of respondents believe it is their people's resistance to change can lead to failure. While nearly half (49%) say they are still worried that they may be left behind due to a lack of senior vision/authority to now capitalise on the opportunity in front of them. Commenting on the results of the study, Jason Ward, Vice-President and Managing Director, Dell Technologies Ireland, said: “While businesses need breakthrough technologies to transform, harnessing the potential of that technology relies on an engaged and innovative workforce. The results of our Breakthrough study unveiled at today's Dell Technologies Forum demonstrate this very fact. “We've all seen how employees working remotely and now in a hybrid format have been crucial in driving businesses' momentum in the progress towards digital transformation. This momentum might be lost if organisations fail to recognise their people's drive for change and to build on the progress made. “That's why it is vital that businesses should take a three-pronged approach. First, provide employees with consistent and safe work experiences, not defined by where they work. Second, help boost productivity by augmenting human capabilities with technology tools that allow employees to focus on what they do best. Lastly, inspiring employees through an empathic culture and authentic leadership. By enabling a people-first approach, Irish businesses can add immeasurable value to their operations and empower innovators across their workforce.” 1. Connectivity Irish businesses performed tremendous feats to connect, collaborate and conduct business online during the pandemic, with the trend continuing as testified by half of the responders (49%) who believe they'll be more productive when working and collaborating remotely. But they're not finished. Despite working remotely these last two years, 60% of all respondents are not yet experiencing a better work-life balance. As a result, over half of business leaders (52%) believe their staff are wrestling with burnout and/or poor mental health that's impacting their work. Over half (55%) of respondents say they need their organisations to provide the necessary tools and infrastructure to work anywhere (along with the autonomy to choose their preferred working pattern). In fact, they worry their people might be left behind because they don't have the right technology to shift to a highly distributed model (where work and compute are not tied to a central place but occur everywhere). The technology alone isn't sufficient. Businesses also need to make work equitable for people with different needs, interests, and responsibilities, including the 78% of respondents that would like their organisation to do any of the following: Clearly define their ongoing commitment to flexible work arrangements and...

New research published in the journal Global Change Biology raises alarming questions about the efficacy of forest carbon programs registered in California's cap-and-trade program. Utilizing satellite imagery, particularly of forests in Northwest California, researchers have compared the carbon sequestered by forests versus what is claimed and have emerged with a concerning conclusion: forests registered in the offset program are overcounting the carbon that they are paid to protect. Researcher Shane Coffield joins Gang Green to discuss his findings and the implications of his research on California's carbon emission reduction strategy.Support the show

Microsoft Corp. has just released a Work Trend Index Pulse report, “Hybrid Work Is Just Work. Are We Doing It Wrong?” The company also announced new capabilities in Microsoft Viva, its employee experience platform, designed to help empower and energise employees in a time of economic uncertainty. The data makes clear that hybrid work has created a growing disconnect between employees and leaders. They're at odds about what constitutes productivity, how to maintain autonomy while ensuring accountability, the benefits of flexibility and the role of the office. To bridge this gap, a new approach is needed that recognises work is no longer just a place but an experience that needs to transcend time and space so employees can stay engaged and connected no matter where they are working. “Thriving employees are what will give organisations a competitive advantage in today's dynamic economic environment,” said Satya Nadella, chairman and CEO, Microsoft. “Today, we're announcing new innovations across our employee experience platform Microsoft Viva to help leaders end productivity paranoia, rebuild social capital, and re-recruit and re-energise their employees.” To help leaders navigate the new realities of work, the Work Trend Index Pulse report points to three urgent pivots every leader should make: 1. End productivity paranoia: 87% of employees report they are productive at work, but 85% of leaders say the shift to hybrid work has made it challenging to have confidence their employees are being productive. Leaders need to create clarity and alignment around company goals, eliminate busywork that doesn't support those goals and listen to their people — 57% of companies are rarely, if ever, collecting employee feedback. 2. Embrace that people come in for each other: 73% of employees say they need a better reason to go into the office besides company expectations — but they would be motivated to go in if they could socialise with co-workers (84%) or rebuild team bonds (85%). Digital communication will be crucial to keep people connected inside and out the office — both employees and leaders rank communication as the No. 1 most critical skill needed to be successful in their roles this year. 3. Re-skill to re-recruit your employees: 55% of employees say the best way to develop their skills is to change companies. However, they also say they would stay longer at their company if it was easier to change jobs internally (68%) or if they could benefit more from learning and development support (76%). To address these challenges, Microsoft is expanding its employee experience platform Microsoft Viva to help companies deliver an employee experience optimised for the way people now work. Today, Microsoft is announcing several new and enhanced capabilities coming to Viva: Viva Pulse is a new app that will enable managers and team leads to seek regular and confidential feedback on their team's experience. Viva Pulse uses smart templates and research-backed questions to help managers pinpoint what's working well and where to focus, and also provides suggested learning and actions to address team needs. Viva Amplify is a new app that will empower leaders and communicators to elevate their message and reach employees where they are with consistency and impact. The app centralises communications campaigns, offers writing guidance to improve message resonance, enables publishing across multiple channels and distribution groups in Microsoft 365, and provides metrics for improvement. Answers in Viva is a new capability that will use AI to match employee questions to answers and experts across the organisation to help put collective knowledge to work for all employees. People in Viva is a new capability that will use AI to create rich profile cards with details on an employee's interests, knowledge and team goals to help colleagues easily discover connections, experts and insights across the organisation. These insights will be available through Micr...

There are no shortages of antidotal stories that demonstrate the impact CCE is having in the lives of students in K-12 and beyond. A few years ago a highly publicized study, Good Soil: A Comparative View, showcased impressive results. We discussed this study at length two years ago on BCL episode 145.  But just this summer,  Brad Doplloff, as part of a PhD program with the support of the folks at the Barna Group, set out to measure the ingredients that enable CCE graduates to go the distance in their lives and faith. Brad's insights continue to illuminate the unique, proven, and measurable impact CCE is having on the next generation.

Researchers at Oregon State University used computer modeling to assess the resilience of roads and bridges on the Oregon coast and how this critical infrastructure would fare in the event of a Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake. A recently published study focuses on local roads as well as transportation infrastructure like highways that connect communities to each other. The researchers looked at how different factors would impact recovery on the entire coast from Warrenton to Gold Beach. OSU Civil and Construction Engineering Professor Dan Cox was one of the co-authors of the study. He joins us to dig into the details.
