We want leaders to do the right thing when tested, and we want and believe we will rise to the challenge when the moment presents itself. But the current way we learn how to act ethically in those critical moments doesn't always translate or cause us to think we can do it effectively and confidently. Why not? How can we better prepare ourselves and our leaders when the moment arises? This is that episode. Giving Voice to Values (GVV) is an innovative approach to values-driven leadership development in business education and the workplace. Drawing on actual experience and scholarship, GVV fills a long-standing critical gap in the development of values-centered leaders. It's not about persuading people to be more ethical. Rather GVV starts from the premise that most of us already want to act on our values, but that we also want to feel that we have a reasonable chance of doing so effectively and successfully. In this episode we'll explore how to raise those odds.***ABOUT OUR GUEST:Mary C.

À la veille des élections de mi-mandat aux États-Unis (mardi 8 novembre 2022), Joe Biden et Donald Trump se livrent bataille à distance lors de derniers meetings, alors que quelque 40 millions d'électeurs ont déjà voté par anticipation. Demain, mardi 8 novembre 2022, les électeurs américains sont appelés à renouveler l'ensemble de la Chambre des représentants, et un tiers du Sénat fédéral. Toute une série de postes d'élus locaux sont également en jeu. « Les républicains ont le vent dans les voiles, il est quasi certain à ce stade qu'ils vont reprendre la majorité à la chambre, la question c'est l'ampleur de leur victoire », analyse notre invité Antoine Yoshinaka, professeur de Sciences politiques à l'Université de l'État de New York à Buffalo. Selon lui, il « paraît probable que les républicains reprennent aussi la majorité au Sénat », la faute « à quelques erreurs stratégiques des démocrates, et des efforts qui n'ont pas été assez mis dans certains états comme l'Ohio ». Alors que quelque 40 millions d'électeurs ont déjà voté par anticipation pour les différents scrutins, il faut s'attendre selon Antoine Yoshinaka à « un taux de participation historiquement élevé » car, explique-t-il, « la polarisation fait que vous êtes amenés à voter surtout contre le candidat adverse pour s'assurer qu'il ne gagne pas ». D'après les informations de CNN, des dizaines de procès pré-électoraux ont déjà été déposés avant l'élection de demain. « Il va y avoir des recomptages, des recours en justice, surtout côté conservateur », prédit notre invité, expliquant que c'est la certification de la présidentielle de 2024 qui se joue.   Nicaragua : des municipales verrouillées On votait hier (dimanche 6 novembre 2022) pour des élections municipales. Les trois millions d'électeurs devaient élire 153 conseils municipaux. Washington a dénoncé une « farce électorale ». Face à ces  faiblesses démocratiques, les Nations unies ont, quant à elles, demandé aux autorités de « rétablir le plein exercice des droits civils ». La raison de ces critiques est simple : l'opposition n'a pas les mains libres dans le pays pour faire campagne. Sur les 153 municipalités, 141 sont dirigés par le parti du Président. En juillet 2022, Ortega a démis de leurs fonctions 7 conseils municipaux qui ne lui étaient pas acquis. Il les a ensuite donnés à son propre parti. Selon l'organisme d'observation électorale Urnas Abiertas, le régime de Daniel Ortega n'a pas seulement donc fait pression hier (6 novembre 2022) sur les fonctionnaires et leurs familles, mais aussi sur des commerçants, des étudiants et des livreurs, en les menaçant de leur retirer certains bénéfices ou leurs licences s'ils ne votaient pas. Dernier hommage à Mikaben Les funérailles de Mikaben, auteur, compositeur et producteur haïtien mort à Paris, le 15 octobre 2022, ont eu lieu dimanche 6 novembre, au Centre culturel Miramar de Floride. Une vingtaine de musiciens haïtiens lui ont rendu hommage. Vêtus de jaune, sa couleur favorite, ils ont chanté sa chanson Ayiti Se, et aussi la dernière chanson qu'il aura écrite, un gospel. « Il n'est pas mort. Il ne peut pas mourir. Il avait trop d'amour dans son cœur », a dit son père pendant la cérémonie, durant laquelle son fils Gabriel a annoncé la création d'une fondation portant le nom de son père. À la Une du Journal de la 1ère  Les pluies diluviennes de ce week-end ont provoqué d'importantes inondations en Martinique et en Guadeloupe qui restent en vigilance fortes pluies et orages.

Molefi Kete Asante, the chair of the Department of African American Studies at Philadelphia's Temple University, has long been at the forefront of developing the academic discipline of  Black studies and in founding the theory of Afrocentrism, “the centering of African people in their own stories.” In this Social Science Bites podcast, Asante offers an insiders view of the growth of the Afrocentric paradigm, from the founding of the Journal of Black Studies a half century ago to the debates over critical race theory today. “Afrocentricity,” Asante tells interviewer David Edmonds, “is a paradigm, an orientation toward data, a perspective, that says that African people are subjects, rather than objects, and that in order to understand narratives of African history, culture, social institutions, you must allow Africans to see themselves as actors rather than on the margins of Europe, or the margins of the Arab culture, or the margins of Asian culture.” While that might seem a mild prescription, it's one that has been often ignored. Asante offers the example that the waterfalls between Zimbabwe and Zambia had a name (Mosi-oa-Tunya for one) before European explorer David Livingstone arrived and dubbed them Victoria Falls. “Livingstone is operating in the midst of hundreds of thousands of African people – kings and queens and royal people – yet the story of southern Africa turns on David Livingstone. The Afrocentrist says that's nonsense; here's a white guy in the midst of Africa and that you turn the history of Southern Africa on him does not make any sense to us.” Asante then details some of his own efforts in centering the stories of Africa and the African diaspora in their own narratives, including the founding of the first academic journal focused on doing so. He details how as a PhD student in 1969, he and Robert Singleton started the effort to create the Journal of Black Studies as a forum for the nascent academic discipline. (The story sees SAGE Publishing, the parent of Social Science Space, and its founder Sara Miller McCune taking an important role as the one publisher that embraced Asante's proposal in 1970.) “The journal survives,” he explains 50 years later, “based on its relevance to contemporary as well as historical experiences.” At the time the journal was founded, Asante directed the University of California Los Angeles' Center for Afro American Studies from 1969 to 1973. He chaired the Communication Department at State University of New York-Buffalo from 1973 to 1980. After two years training journalists in Zimbabwe, he became chair of the African American Studies Program at Temple University where he created the first Ph.D. Program in African American Studies in 1987. He has written prodigiously, publishing more than 75 books, ranging from poetry on Afrocentric themes to high school and university texts to the Encyclopedia of Black Studies.

Recognized for her contributions, Dr. Shafi has received a number of awards and honors. Most recently, she was awarded the Betty M. Drees Excellence in Mentoring Award. If you don't believe in yourself, why should someone else? That is the advice Dr. Fariha Shafi learned at a young age; and she shares it with us today. She explains the true power of mentorship; how those that stand behind us are the ones who inspire us to be the very best we can. That mentors (and sponsors) are the ones who will invest the most in our success; but it is up to us to carry ourselves across that finish line to success. The more honest, intentional, and confident we can be with ourselves and our mentors, the clearer we will get on our goals,; and the more our mentors will be able to help us achieve them. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. A mentoring relationship has to be approached actively - We should identify our challenges, and approach a mentor with an agenda. 2. Every morning, give yourself a few minutes to think about 3 things you are grateful for in your life. This gratitude exercise will help us see positivity in our lives. 3. Learn to say NO. Be mindful of what all you pile up in your plate and have the realization that there is a finite amount of space in that plate. 4. Remember the 4 key traits to be successful: Be goal-oriented, work hard, ask for feedback and self-reflect often.

Japanese university and government venture funds play a much larger role in Japan than in the West. I've always considered this difference to be, on balance, neutral, today's guest makes a convincing case that these funds are actually hurting the startup ecosystem here. Today we sit down and talk with Hiroaki Suga, co-founder of PeptiDream.  PeptiDream is now a $7 billion biotech company, but it started out as a couple of university faculty members funding operations out of their own pockets. PeptiDream succeeded by using a very different model than that used by either the current generation of university spin-outs or biotech startups in the West. It's an interesting blueprint that other biotech firms might want to copy, but only if they are really sure that their technology will actually work. It's a great conversation, and I think you will really enjoy it. Show Notes Japanese Univstities' problems with applied research The challenge in moving from academia to startup operations How to hire a CEO What most professors don't know they don't know about business How to land large sales contracts as a small startup How to sell new technology to Japanese pharmaceutical companies Why biotech investment is so hard in Japan Why you want to step away while you are on top Japan's next biotech unicorn Why most Japanese government startup money is misused Links from the Founder Dr. Suga's Lab Everything you ever wanted to know about PeptiDream Hiroaki's new project MiraBiologics  Leave a comment Transcript Welcome to Disrupting Japan, straight talk from Japan’s most successful entrepreneurs. I’m Tim Romero and thanks for joining me. We’ve talked a lot before about how there are not many life sciences startups in Japan and what can be done to change that. But there are, of course, some and some incredibly successful ones. PeptiDream is one of those startups. Founded by a small team at a university lab, PeptiDream has grown from nothing to a $6 billion company. Today, we sit down with the founder of PeptiDream and fellow guitarist, Hiroaki Suga, and he’ll explain how they’re working with pharmaceutical companies all over the world to discover new drugs and new treatments. We also talk about the rather unusual business strategy that allow them to scale up with relatively little financing and to land deals with global drug companies a lot sooner than most biotech startups can. And I’ve got to say, my conversation with Dr. Suga really changed my mind about the role the Japanese universities and the government should play in fostering startups and innovation here. It’s a fascinating and unique perspective from inside the system, and I guarantee you, it’s not what you think it is. But you know, Hiroaki tells that story much better than I can, so let’s get right to the interview. [pro_ad_display_adzone id="1411"  info_text="Sponsored by"  font_color="grey"  ] Interview Tim: I’m sitting here with Hiroaki Suga, the cofounder of PeptiDream. So, thanks for sitting down with me today. Hiroaki Suga: Sure. Very welcome. Tim: PeptiDream is a peptide discovery platform but what is that exactly? Hiroaki: So, the technology started from over 25 years ago. I had idea. Is that okay? I want to develop RNA catalyst. The so-called ribozymes. I did a post doc with Professor Jack Szostak in Harvard Medical School. I run the techniques for the in vitro selections but I didn’t really get major success, but I was fortunate enough that I get an academic position in State University in New York Buffalo. So, I succeeded in developing we call “flexizimes” so that the first two patents are owned by SUNY Buffalo, but it wasn’t really quite useful yet. Tim: So, you were working on this for 20 years plus? Hiroaki: Pretty much, yeah. Tim: Did you have an end target in mind saying, “This is how I’m going to commercialize it, this is why it’s useful”?

Poor mestizos in northern Peru offer a new way to theorize humanism and sentient landscapes that interact with humans in terms of environmental justice, collective ethics, and health. By defining “community” and “well-being” as humans-in-relationship-to-places-as-persons, poor mestizos resignify “nature” itself as an anchor for social justice. Ana Mariella Bacigalupo, Professor of Anthropology at the State University of New York-Buffalo, speaks on her research in northern Peru. She has worked with Mapuche shamans in Southern Chile and shamans on the north coast of Peru.

In this conversation, Dr. Prior speaks of the necessity of intentional reading in an age of distraction. She notes that not all reading is created equal.

Doug’s doctoral work, at the State University of New York/Buffalo, was in the history of ideas, which he takes as license to read any book with an interesting idea in it. His primary interests are in social and religious history, theology, social theory and psychology. He spends his spare time in conversation with the nearby Klamath Indian and ranching communities. He loves exploring with his students the special problems and opportunities that come with growing up in a conservative Christian church, about which, as a pastor’s son, he has some personal knowledge. He has a deep fascination with Jesus, who he suspects is a much more unsettling, mysterious and radical figure than the churches usually give him credit for.

Science is more than observation of what exists in nature: science is adventure of the mind. It took many creative leaps of the mind to produce science as sophisticated as modern physics and genetic biology.In his new book, Our Quest for Effective Living: How We Cope in Social Space; A Window to a New Science, Fred Katz offers creative leaps about the social space in which we humans live our lives. Katz taught sociology at various universities, including the State University of New York/Buffalo and Tel Aviv University. Recorded On: Wednesday, January 6, 2010
