Dr. Anna Krzywoszynska is a social scientist at the University of Oulu in Finland who studies how farmers and scientists can collaborate to foster regenerative agriculture. An expert on soil knowledge and values, with experience farming organically in Italy, Dr. Krzywoszynska examines the knowledge systems shaping food production. Currently, she's investigating how to transform agricultural research to support local communities, including turning research stations into hubs for collaboration between farmers and scientists. Her projects aim to align scientific inquiry with local needs, promoting community-driven innovation and sustainable land use. In this episode, John and Anna discuss: How farmers see soil as a resource to manage, while scientists seek broad, universal insights. How academic and agri-business structures favor research on general trends over practical, local farming solutions. The community's role in regenerative agriculture, enabling farmers to learn and innovate together. Research stations as potential community hubs integrating local farmers needs into science. Regenerative agriculture's ability to restore hope and reconnect farmers with nature. Celebrating mistakes as essential for learning and growth in farming.

W czwartym odcinku tego sezonu #bezepicznik rozmawiamy o przestrzeniach do gotowania.  Będzie o tym co charakteryzuje dobrą kuchnię. Zastanowimy się czy wszyscy musimy mieć wielkie przestrzenie do gotowania oraz jak nadać nowe życie kuchni którą już mamy. Moją gościnią jest  Cecylia Waś architektka wnętrz z dyplomem historyczki sztuki, dla której piękno i estetyka to absolutne priorytety. Od początku drogi zawodowej wierna skandynawskiej estetyce i praktyczności. Przedstawicielka fińskiej firmy KONTIO budującej domy z bala klejonego. Dwa lata temu postanowiła przenieść do Polski znaną już dobrze na północy, koncepcję zmiany samych frontów meblowych, opartych na gotowych systemach. TULLA, bo tak nazywa się nowa marka, to po fińsku zmieniać się i tą zmianą chce inspirować innych i pokazać, że można stworzyć przestrzeń estetyczną, utrzymaną w duchu less waste i osiągalną cenowo w Polsce.  Menu wiedzy od Cecylii:Cozy publishing - Happy home - Hideaways Magazyn o wnętrzach Asun ( fińska wersja językowa) i anglojęzyczna wersja Asun Homes. Targi Salone del Mobile w Mediolanie. Naprzemiennie jednego roku wnętrzom towarzyszą targi połączone z kuchniami, na zmianę z oświetleniem. Tegoroczne 2025, poświęcone są właśnie oświetleniu.Będąc na targach w Mediolanie, nie sposób zobaczyć towarzyszące targi poza targami ;-) Cykl wystaw i promocja designu w innym wymiarze, wychodzącym poza ramy standardowej wystawy. Coroczna ekspozycja domów w Finlandii. Jej celem jest promowanie co roku, nowej wybranej na ten cel gminy, gdzie buduje się domy, nie na potrzeby wystawy, ale przyszli mieszkańscy, zaraz po zakończeniu oficjalnej części dla odwiedzających, faktycznie w nich zamieszkają. Z reguły nad samym jeziorem czy wodą, gdzie w pierwszej linii, swoje bardzo imponujące projekty prezentują największe firmy z branży. To rodzaj promowania lokalnych firm i lokalnego budownictwa z drewna. Tegoroczna edycja odbędzie się w sierpniu w Oulu.  A Partnerem (tego) odcinka jest Invest Komfort - trójmiejski deweloper, którego pracę naprawdę szanuję.

Trinity researchers have developed a new gamified mobile health (mHealth) app designed to help people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) manage fatigue, one of the most common and debilitating symptoms of the disease. The research - led by Dr Guido Giunti, Adjunct Professor, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin and Associate Professor of Digital Health at the University of Oulu, Finland, and researchers from the University of Oulu and Oulu University Hospital - evaluated the feasibility, usability, and impact of the app, named, More Stamina over a 60-day period. The study, which highlights the potential of the app, is published in the journal Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders today. "Fatigue is an invisible but life-altering symptom of MS," said Dr. Guido Giunti, Adjunct Professor, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin and leader of the More Stamina project. "Managing it requires more than just medication. More Stamina gives people the tools to understand their energy levels, take control of their day, and communicate their needs more effectively." The study followed 20 participants from Oulu University Hospital in Finland, who used the app daily for two months. Key Findings Users became more aware of their fatigue patterns, enabling them to plan their days more effectively. Higher engagement correlated with increased self-awareness, particularly among those with more severe fatigue. The app helped facilitate discussions with family members and healthcare providers, improving mutual understanding of fatigue's impact. Usability improved over time, though some users found data entry cognitively demanding, indicating areas for refinement. An Evidence-Driven Digital Health Solution More Stamina helps users track their daily activities and energy expenditure using "Stamina Credits", a gamified approach that visualizes energy use and helps users make informed decisions about their daily plans. Unlike many digital health solutions, More Stamina stands out for its research-driven approach at every stage, from identifying patient needs to design, prototyping, development, and testing. Each phase has been accompanied by peer-reviewed research, creating a transparent scientific trail for a mobile health solution. Bringing Digital Health into MS Care Fatigue affects up to 80% of MS patients and has a profound impact on their quality of life. Managing fatigue is challenging, as it involves physical, cognitive, and emotional factors, often leaving patients feeling exhausted, misunderstood, and unsupported. While digital health solutions have been increasingly proposed to help manage chronic conditions like MS, few have been rigorously evaluated to ensure their effectiveness and real-world impact. Neurologists at Oulu University Hospital emphasize the potential of such solutions in complementing traditional MS care. While the study confirmed that More Stamina is a feasible and acceptable tool, researchers emphasize that larger and longer-term studies are needed to evaluate its full clinical impact. The team is now exploring ways to integrate More Stamina into broader MS care strategies. Professor Minna Isomursu, University of Oulu, said: "Digital health solutions are only as good as their foundation. We worked with real patients and healthcare professionals from the start to build something truly useful. That is key to creating tools that people actually find useful in their daily lives." Empowering Patients and Strengthening Family Dialogue One of the unexpected yet powerful outcomes of the study was the role More Stamina played in facilitating conversations between MS patients and their families. Many participants reported that sharing their fatigue patterns with loved ones helped them feel understood and supported. More Stamina's development was not just about technology, it was about people. Active participation from patient representatives was key to ensuring that the app addressed real-life challenges.

The Northern Ostrobothnia Museum chronicles the city's cultural history. 

In this episode, I connect with the Denleys to discuss how living abroad in Denmark inspired them to bring utilitarian cycling and cargo bikes to their hometown of Yellowknife in The Northwest Territories of Canada. This is yet another case of regular people, parents, who became radicalized into becoming safer streets and everyday cycling advocates.Thank you so much for tuning in!

Der finnische Sternekoch verfolgt eine klare Philosophie in seiner Küche: „Jedes Produkt auf dem Teller muss eine Bedeutung haben. Ich setze auf das Prinzip 1+1 – ein Hauptprodukt ergänzt durch ein Nebenprodukt.“ Sauli Kemppainen aus Oulu besuchte nach der Koch-Ausbildung und Meisterprüfung die Chefkochschule in Belgien, bevor er im Hotel Savoy in Helsinki am Herd stand. Es folgten Stationen im Berliner Restaurant Margaux vom frankophilen Michael Hoffmann, im Drei-Sterne-Restaurant von Dieter Müller in Bergisch Gladbach und im Tristan auf Mallorca. Anschließend erweiterte er seine Expertise im weltberühmten Fat Duck von Heston Blumenthal in Berkshire (England) und verantwortete die Küche im Orange Tree in Moskau. Seine gelungene Premiere beim SHGF feierte Sauli Kemppainen im November 2024 in der Gutsküche (Tangstedt) von Rebecca und Matthias Gfrörer. „Ich bin sehr glücklich, bei Matthias an diesem schönen Ort zu sein. Mit ihm habe ich vor 24 Jahren im 2-Sterne-Restaurant Margaux in Berlin am Herd gestanden“, so der heute 55-Jährige, der gerade das Restaurant Harbore im Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4 in Helsinki eröffnete. Warum Sauli Kemppainen kein Wasser zum Kochen verwenden, pure Aromen im Mittelpunkt stehen und seine Koch-Ausbildung sechs Jahre gedauert hat, erzählt der sympathische Finne in der 78. Episode vom SHGF Podcast.

Der erste Tag am Spengler Cup ist vorbei, leider ohne Sieg der Drachen. Heute gehts weiter, auf dem Eis gegen Kärpät Oulu und im Freiburger Chalet mit benchside. Der Präsident des Verwaltungsrates Hubert Waeber hat uns besucht und spricht über das Highlight in Davos, aber auch über die Weltmeisterschaft 2026 in Freiburg und netürlich über den neuen Trainer Lars Leuenberger.

Honí Pardubice a už druhou sezonu po sobě dělají klubu skvělou reklamu. Borci z Litvínova, v extraligové sezoně nejlepší venkovní tým. Taky nejobětavější. V neděli v Plzni však sčítal rány poté, co byl na hrazení naremplován David Kaše a proti tvrdé střele nastavil své tělo Martin Havelka. V pondělním Zimáku živě (od 11 hodin) jsme škaredý zákrok Jana Schleisse rozebrali s tradičním hostem, bývalým vynikajícím útočníkem Jaroslavem Bednářem. A bylo toho samozřejmě mnohem víc k debatování. Co také ještě? Proč ještě v Litvínově nepodepsali nové kontrakty úspěšní trenéři Mlejnek, Reichel, Kočí? Byl by o hlavního kouče Karla Mlejnka velký zájem i jinde? Jaromír Jágr v neděli vstřelil Spartě třetí gól sezony, ale co bude dál s Kladnem? Bude nakupovat na poslední chvíli? Chtějí vůbec hráči do Kladna? Zlaté dresy Rytířům nesedí, skončí v popelnici? Je už na nové sparťanské posile Michaelu Špačkovi znát větší rozehranost a vliv na výsledky? Proč se z finského Oulu vrátil obránce Martin Jandus? Proč ne do Sparty, kam patří, ale do Třince? A je možné, že mu trenér Kärpätu házel klacky pod nohy, jak hráč říká? Obří marodka trápí liberecké Bílé Tygry, kteří čtyřikrát po sobě prohráli. Dokážou se ještě zvednout? A neměl by Róbert Lantoši být víc produktivní? Hradecká letka dál kosí soupeře, po Litvínovu si vyšlápla na Kometu a je už třetí. Rodí se černý kůň pro play off? Jaká budoucnost by mohla čekat trenéra Tomáše Martince, jenž má na výkonnost týmu obrovský podíl? Jak vzpomíná Jaroslav Bednář na tříleté hradecké působení a kvůli kterému hráči (jenž nepřišel) to nevyšlo se ziskem titulu? A z jakých důvodů Bednář rychle opustil pozici sportovního manažera hradeckého Mountfieldu? Pardubice jedou na Spengler Cup do Davosu, jaké je finanční zákulisí prestižního turnaje?

In this episode, I connect with Patty Wiens, the Bicycle Mayor of Winnipeg, for an update on the everyday cycling scene in this emerging bicycle-friendly city in the province of Manitoba, Canada. We discuss the status of the lagging safe cycling infrastructure, the impressive advocacy groups, and a recent act of "civil obedience" where cyclists went out at rush hour and followed all the "rules of the road" to the letter of the law to demonstrate how silly it is to apply these motor vehicle laws to people riding bikes.   Thank you so much for tuning in!

Diesmal gehts um die tiefe Verbundenheit mit der Natur, die Magie der Sauna und die besondere finnische Mentalität, das sogenannte „Sisu“ – eine unerschütterliche innere Stärke, die durch alle Herausforderungen trägt. Natürlich darf auch der Kaffee nicht fehlen, denn in keinem anderen Land der Welt wird pro Kopf so viel davon getrunken, wie in Finnland! Ein Land, das nicht nur für atemberaubende Polarlichter, sondern auch für seine besondere Lebensart bekannt ist. Wir waren unterwegs in Oulu, Rovaniemi, Vaasa und Savonlinna und haben diese faszinierenden Orte erkundet, bevor wir schließlich über Helsinki die Fähre zurück genommen haben. Außerdem erforschen wir das finnische Glück. Warum sind die Menschen hier laut Studien so zufrieden? Liegt es an der Einfachheit, der Stille oder dem ausgeprägten "sich in Ruhe lassen"? Wie uns die Polarlichter verzaubert haben, und was wir von der finnischen Kultur in Sachen Gelassenheit und Lebensfreude mitnehmen, erzählen wir in dieser Podcastfolge. Übrigens: für mehr Ruhe im Kopf, Mut im Herzen ud Ruhe im Körper hat Franca ihren SISU-Kurs entwickelt. www.sisu-online.de Wie immer freuen wir uns über eure Geschichten zu unseren nächsten Reisezielen (Spanien und insbesondere Andalusien) unter: https://www.speakpipe.com/happytogo Bilder findet ihr bei Instagram unter @happytogo.podcast https://www.instagram.com/happytogo.podcast?igsh=OTQxMjdwMWZtZ3dm Unseren Song gibt´s zum Beispiel hier: https://open.spotify.com/album/4EAkSpzdX467SoMRJJ0Wkz?si=48-7DaxpT4a7ucIK9J-ISw

Dažniausiai apie benamius pradedama kalbėti, kai jie maudosi fontanuose, trukdo kavinių lankytojams, ar nutikus tragiškoms istorijoms, kaip Rimanto Šaparnio mirtis. Lietuvoje benamių daugėja, tačiau bendros šalies strategijos problemai spręsti nėra. Nors veikiantys sprendimai, kaip padėti bent daliai būstą praradusių žmonių, yra, tai rodo kitų miestų pavyzdžiai. Vienas jų – „Pirmiausia – būstas“(angl. „Housing First“) strategija, taikoma daugelyje Europos valstybių. Suomija prieš pora dešimtmečių išsikėlė tikslą, kad niekas negyventų gatvėse – kiekvienas pilietis turi turėti gyvenamąją vietą. Žiūrėkite reportažą iš Oulu ir Alytaus benamių prieglaudų, apie sprendimus, taikomus Suomijoje.

In this episode of The Human Experience, host Jennifer Peterkin sits down with Paula, a health and happiness coach for leaders. Paula shares her journey from being a self-proclaimed people pleaser to undergoing a profound transformation following a near-death experience during the birth of her first son. This episode dives deep into topics of personal growth, healing, the mind-body connection, and the importance of setting boundaries. Paula's story is one of resilience, courage, and the power of aligning our actions with our decisions.

Wykład prof. Mariusza Majdańskiego w ramach cyklu GEOGADKA - Geofizyka dla każdego, IGF PAN [31 maja 2023] https://wszechnica.org.pl/wyklad/sejsmologia-srodowiskowa-czy-metody-poszukiwania-ropy-moga-wspierac-adaptacje-do-zmian-klimatu/ Metody sejsmiczne wykorzystywane w przemyśle naftowym w ostatnich 100 latach pozwoliły na rozpoznanie i wydobycie ogromnych ilości ropy i gazu. Te nośniki energii są najbardziej istotne w obserwowanych zmianach klimatu poprzez zwiększenie procesów szklarniowych w systemie ziemskim. Czy te same metody mogą pomóc w zrozumieniu zachodzących procesów, monitorowaniu ich, a także w przystosowaniu się do zmieniających warunków środowiskowych? Podczas webinarium przedstawione będą podstawy metod sejsmicznych oraz rozwój metod przypowierzchniowych w badaniach środowiskowych w Polsce. Na przykładach badań wieloletniej zmarzliny w Arktyce oraz pomiarów w Polsce przedstawione zostaną najnowsze i niespodziewane wyniki dotyczące zagrożeń klimatycznych. Przedstawiony będzie również aktualny projekt dotyczący bezpieczeństwa obiektów krytycznych w Polsce. Prof. Mariusz Majdański - jest fizykiem związanym zawodowo z Instytutem Geofizyki PAN.

First-ever Euro guest! With the 'Birds leading the Pac and riding a 10-game point streak, join in for this visit with "Mr. FinLength," 6-foot-5 CV rookie defenseman, Ville Ottavainen.

This is episode six and we're covering events at the end of December and into the first week of January. First a quick situation report. The Finns were fighting to maintain control over parts of the road to Raate from Suomussalmi, with the Russians having now decided to send an entire new Division to support the Ninth Army which had experienced some difficulty in the drive to cut Finland in half through what was known as the waist, planning if you remember to reach Oulu the eastern harbour port on the Baltic. Captain Makinen had fought a rear-guard near the lakes of Kuivasjarvi and Kuomajarvi but the going was tough as his 350 men faced 14 000 Red Army troops. The Ninth Army receiving new orders for the 163rd and 44 Rifle Divisions to attack simultaneously on the 22nd December, but this was postponed to the 24th. That was to allow the 9th Army commander Duhanov to be replaced by the highly successful Vasily Chuikov. For this phase of the attack, the Soviets wanted to send in reinforcements to Suomussalmi which they continued to hold despite Finnish attempts to drive them from this town based in the central eastern side of the waist, on the main road to Oulu. The Soviet Stavka had taken over direct control of the war, it was going so badly, and they wanted to send mobile forces down the road to bolster the two infantry regiments, divisional artillery and the HQ in Suomussalmi. This was going to be a challenge, the Finns managed the cut the road along a five kilometer section. So the Stavka used a new tactic, to bypass this cut off portion, to outflank the Finns in other words. If you stand in the town of Suomussalmi and stare out direct north, you're looking out across one of these quite vast lakes, out towards the Hulkonniemi peninsular opposite, more than a kilometer away across the Niskanselka portion of the lake. o the Soviet battalion that detached from the 44th Rifle Division was forced to circle Finnish positions along a 200 kilometre route through the Lonkka-Palovaara territory, and this was a safe route, albeit a long march. Intelligence reports indicated that the Russians were arriving in force and the Finns attack on Suomussalmi was delayed to the 26th December when sections of the Sixth bicycle battalion struck Russian logistics columns near kylanmaki. Despite desperate attempts, the bicycle battalion failed to overrun the Russian positions. Things went better for the rest of the battalion hit a Red Army motorised column at the village of Kakimaki, causing chaos. The Russian troops abandoned their trucks and escaped across the frozen landscape back into to Soviet Union. Let's take a look at what was happening near the Arctic sea, far to the north. There the Soviet Fourteenth Army led by Commander Valerian Frolov was trying to seize Finland's only Arctic port, Petsamo. The Finnish high command had split their forces here — one was under Major General Marrti Wallenius, and called the Lapland Group. Wallenius faced a grim situation, and Mannerheim had not expected his forces in the north to survive long. He was going to be surprised, because the Lapland Group had managed to hold off the Fourteenth Army mainly because Frolov had decided to use only one third of his forces in the initial attack, the 52nd Rifle Division.

Last we heard how the Russian Stavka had taken control of the war directly after a number of mishaps, the Finns had managed to stymie the mighty Red Army which launched its invasion without warning on November 30th. 120 000 Russian soldiers backed up by 1500 artillery pieces, 1400 tanks and about 1000 planes had initially launched part of the invasion along the Karelian Isthmus - this was the Soviet Seventh Army. The Finnish forces facing them were tiny by comparison, almost ten percent of the size, 26 000 infantry, 71 artillery pieces and no tanks. Helsinki couldn't call on an air force, they had virtually no planes. The Russian Seventh Army led by Vladimir Grendahl was tasked with seizing the Karelian isthmus, targeting both the east up against Lake Ladoga and the west, via Viipuri along the Baltic Coast. As you heard previously, the Eastern sector had been a nightmare, with the Russians held up at Taipale — the Finnish artillery in particular had scored many hits on the Red Army moving across open land, and as they tried to cross the Taipale River. AFter the setbacks, the Stavka increased the size of the infantry to 250 000, added another 300 artillery pieces and tanks and air support was bolstered. The Russians shifted their attention on the Isthmus back to the western edge, towards Viipuri. The Finnish Army Second Corps comprised of the 1st, 4th, 5th and 11th Divisions were here, fighting stoically against the invasion, but were short of reinforcements. At Summa, Colonel Selim Isakson's 5th Division awaited the Russians, to their left was the 1st Division led by Laaitikainen, and on their left, Colonel Koskimies 11th Division. Orders were sent by Carl Gustaf Mannerheim on 5th December to hold the ground at all costs. The Finnish high command also issued a statement on how to defeat the dreaded Russian tanks. “… if the enemy tanks at times manage to break through our lines, our troops must hold their ground and calmly destroy the infantry following in the wake of their armour…” One of the main Soviet objectives was to hit the 12 kilometer area between Summa village and a large lake called Muolaanjarvi. The Russians were going to strike this area repeatedly, and were repeatedly repulsed until the end of December. But its time to cast our gaze further north, to the Battle for Suomussalmi which was going to become the symbol of Finnish resistance in the coming weeks. This town of roughly 4000 people lies in the central region of Finland, in the east of what was called the waist of the country, the narrowest part, on the eastern side close to the Russian border. Suomussalmi was a provincial centre, the town was made up mostly of loggers and hunters although seasonal fishing was also part of its economy. The Russian plan was to take the town, then drive directly west, thus splitting the country in two as they focused on the Baltic harbour town of Oulu. Suomussalmi region characterised by long twisty lakes that radiate outwards from the road junction. At 8am on the 30th November the Soviet 163rd Rifle Division led by Brigade Commander Andrew Zelentsov launched an attack the village of Lonkka just over the border. Zelentsov's strategy was to attempt to take Suomussalmi from two directions - a two pronged attack and at first his forces managed to advance 15 kilometers. It's safe the say that the Finns were startled that their enemy had bothered to attack this area at all, even more so that they'd arrived in force. The individual motti's received many names used during the battles - mainly in an attempt at deceiving Soviet intelligence - but in time, they all received an "official" name, usually according to the nearest town or village. Tactically, it went like this. A combat team was sent to an assembly area just out of reach of the Red Army reconnaissance patrols while Finnish scouts reccied the best concealed routes to the road from these assembly areas.

Host Casandra Grundstrom is joined by special guest University Lecturer Arto Lanamäki from the University of Oulu in Finland. Much of his research is qualitative and phenomenon-driven research, concerning the role of information technologies in social practices. He is currently working in the Research Council of Finland (Suomen Akatemia) funded AI-REG project (2022-2026) investigating the European Act on Artificial Intelligence. While publishing mostly in the field of IS, he champions a certain research eclecticism and a boundary-breaking ethos. His research has been published in the Journal of Strategic Information Systems (JSIS), Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST), Communications of the Association for Information Systems (CAIS), among others.In this episode, we first catch-up with Arto's research and new AI legislation, before turning our attention to paradigms in IS.  We consider the historical saturation of positivism in the IS discipline, the leaning into interpretivism before narrowing in on a paradigm gaining attention called 'critical realism'.  What is critical realism? Why is it important for IS? What does Arto think of critical realism? Tune in to find out. Also, colours.References:Barley, S. R. (2006).

Naboerne så nysgerrigt til fra deres vinduer, da der blev sat afspærring op ved kælderrummet i boligblokken i Oulu. Snart gik snakken om familien, der netop var flyttet ind to-tre måneder tidligere. Det var et pænt, yngre ægtepar i 30'erne; en finsk kvinde og hendes tyrkiske mand. I kælderrummet fandt politiet fem babylig. Det var begyndelsen på en af de mest grufulde drabssager i finsk retshistorie.Manuskript: Janne Aagaard.Indlæst af Emilie Westh Wold.Produktion: Signe Haahr.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As the first Russian bombs drop on Oulu, Finland in early 1940 during the Winter War, Aarne Kovala is a young boy with a great love of the sea. While the war rages, Aarne takes fate into his own hands and joins the Finnish merchant marines. He spends his days delivering war materials between Finland, Poland, and Germany. But when Finland's ties with Germany are severed after the signing of the Moscow Armistice in 1944, Aarne and his fellow sailors are arrested by the Nazis and sent by cattle car to the infamous Stutthof concentration camp deep in the Polish forest. And thus begins Aarne's horrific struggle to survive amid dreadful living conditions, scarce food, and grueling work details. In the only letter he is allowed to send home, he prays, “I hope the day soon dawns that we again may meet.” But after months of dark nights and even darker days, how long can his hope survive?

Today's conversation and guest are unlike one you have ever heard on our show before and I am not just talking about the who, what, and where of the story (all of which are great!) but really understanding what “a good place to live is a good place to visit” means to a destination few of us have been. Something I know our guest hopes to change for us all!  Oulu, Finland is having a moment, and not just against the backdrop of the world which includes sharing a border with Russia, being recently accepted in NATO, or even a brand-new Prime minister, all of which we will discuss. But we're talking about how Oulu is pushing sustainability, happiness, and warmth to its residents and visitors alike.  Please welcome to the show, Yrjötapio ”Y.t.” Kivisaari from Visit Oulu Visit Oulu, Finland Destinations International The Architects of Destination Advocacy Podcast is a part of the Destination Marketing Podcast Network.

Have you ever self inflicted yourself with suffering? Have you ever Oulu there'd or been volunteered for something you didn't want to do? If you answered yes, then this is for you. We will be discussing how God will even help us with any situation whether self inflicted or otherwise. I hope this blesses you as much as it has me. ☺️ Below is a backstory on how this all got started if you're interested. I started this channel by reading from the little book “I've got to talk to somebody, God” a woman's conversations with God by Marjorie Holmes. It has been such a blessing. I didn't know what direction the Lord would take this channel after we finished that book. In true form, God has provided. He put it on a faithful supporter heart to purchase and to send me another book by Marjorie Holmes titled “Hold me up a little longer, Lord”. I know God is going to use this book to minister to us and bless us. Thank you for being here! I hope this blesses you.

Today I am very excited to introduce you to Agnis Stibe, a 4x TEDx speaker, MIT alum, YouTube creator, globally recognized corporate consultant, and scientific advisor. He is the Artificial Intelligence Program Director and Professor of Transformation at EM Normandie Business School, and the creator of the STIBE Method, which we will of course talk about in today's episode. He is also the Adjunct Professor of Human-City Interaction at the University of Oulu, Paris Lead of Silicon Valley founded Transformative Technology community.  While at the renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he established research on persuasive cities for sustainable wellbeing. We talk about his research, how social proof can change behavior when it is made more visible, the importance of testing, why you need to try different approaches for any concept, and so much more. Listen in! Show Notes: [00:43] Today I am very excited to introduce you to Dr. Agnis Stibe, a 4x TEDx speaker, MIT alum, YouTube creator, globally recognized corporate consultant, and scientific advisor. [03:19] Agnis shares about himself, his background, and the really fascinating work he does. He is passionate about helping people, teams, organizations, and societies to get where they want to get.  [04:17] It is our counterproductive psychology that is oftentimes our roadblock to our own success and happiness.  [07:22] Awareness is number one. Once awareness is there, then there has to be a degree of willingness.  [09:33] Not everything is worth coming up the “Slope of Enlightenment.”  [10:23] We have access to the same curiosity throughout our lives. The question is do we allow ourselves to be using it? [12:31] He encourages people to take away unnecessary bias before they start a conversation about AI. [14:13] Together we are on a journey and the only obstacles are our human biases. [15:32] Agnis shares some success stories.  [17:15] After five meetings using their transparent system, everyone was on time.  [18:18] Melina's second book What Your Employees Need and Can't Tell You comes out in October 2022.   [20:11] Many people don't want to see themselves in comparison with others on the same screen, but that is their resistance speaking.   [22:02] Technology takes away the bias. It is a more reliable perspective that it makes existing patterns more transparent and visible.  [23:51] Agnis shares about The Littery and his role with it.  [26:32] They amplified the effects of that solution by adding a social layer. Technology also played a role in making things more transparent.  [28:28] Humans over our evolution have gained a lot and we have lost some essential awareness of who we are.  [30:42] Thanks to technology we get a deeper and clearer perspective of who we are.  [33:19] Technology has huge impacts. There is bias towards technology.  [34:34] Agnis' hypothesis: technology is perceived by an average human being the same way an average human being perceives another human being. [36:28] Everything we experience with technology is giving us an opportunity to look at ourselves - the more technology the closer and deeper we see ourselves.   [38:24] The STIBE Method has ten tools split among three major stages. [39:55] Most of the time the problem with failed solutions is that there is not enough awareness of the problem.  [41:33] The final and crucial phase is to make assurance for long-term success. [45:33] Melina shares her closing thoughts.  [45:45] The impact of social proof can change when it is made more visible and there is a record.
