What if the leadership edge you're looking for doesn't come from working harder, but listening deeper?   We talk often about productivity, performance, and pushing through. But few conversations explore the quieter forces shaping our best decisions, like intuition.   In this episode, I speak with Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir, a director, writer, systems thinker, and an award-winning sustainability leader, about intuition as a source of strength, clarity, and resilience in both leadership and life.   Hrund shares how her work in post-conflict Kosovo with the UN led to burnout and a full reset — one that turned her toward the science and practice of intuition. Through personal stories, research, and the Icelandic concept of innsæi (“the sea within”), she explains how we can train our intuition as rigorously as we train our intellect.   We explore: How to know whether your intuition is guiding you, or your ego is pulling you Why many of us lose touch with inner guidance (and how to return to it) How to use an “attention journal” to strengthen your discernment The difference between insight and overthinking What it takes to create workplace cultures that respect sensing as much as data Why intuition is not the opposite of reason, but essential to it This episode is for anyone navigating uncertainty, complexity, or the quiet knowing that something needs to change. Whether you're leading a team, facing a major decision, or simply looking to reconnect with your inner compass, this conversation offers both inspiration and practical tools to help you find your way — from the inside out.

Join us as Nicholas shares how embracing our whole selves helps businesses and the people who work in them can thrive together. If you enjoy the show, please rate it on  Apple or Spotify. Your ratings help more people like you discover the podcast!  Episode Highlights The critical role of leaders in addressing global crises through deep personal and emotional connection. How fostering emotional openness and vulnerability can transform leadership effectiveness and workplace dynamics. Integrating meditative and somatic practices to elevate leaders' perceptual fields and empathy levels. The substantial business benefits of emotionally intelligent leadership, from engagement to profitability. The necessity of taking a leadership approach that prioritizes emotional authenticity for transformative change. How physical awareness and presence enhance leaders' decision-making capabilities and overall effectiveness. Creating organizational cultures that foster resilience and satisfaction. Nicholas' view on the greatest unmet wellbeing need at work today “Emotional the cultivation and welcoming of emotional authenticity. People being allowed to say how they're really feeling and being unconditionally met. There's nothing wrong with feeling frightened, sad. I think without that you'll never have well pay.” What "working with humans" means to Nicholas “It means working with the full spectrum of who we are. And most workplaces in my great, extensive experience, function on a very small spectrum of who we really are.” Resources Follow: Nicholas on LinkedIn Visit: Matrix Development website Read: Leader as Healer: A new paradigm for 21st-century leadership For more episodes that give you fresh perspectives and actionable ideas for making working with other humans better for everyone, visit our website at https://en.peoplefocusconsulting.com/resources/podcast/ ©Michael Glazer    

The grid is getting more complex, complicating the responsibilities of the entities responsible for keeping electricity flowing. In this episode of Grid Talk, host Marty Rosenberg interviews Clair Moeller who is the President and Chief Operating Officer for the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO).The discussion focuses on the evolving power grid and the transition to clean energy. “Retirements are outpacing new installations of resources on the grid and that's a problem that we haven't had on the grid since its early formation period in the ‘30s,” Moeller said. “Things are moving in an uncoordinated fashion where we're creating risk for the grid that we maybe didn't anticipate.”One of the risks is the need for more transmission to meet demand.“By the time we're all in, it will be over a hundred billion dollars' worth of transmission investments.”Spending for new generation and transmission will have an impact on consumers.“Energy costs at the consumer level are going to go up substantially,” said Moeller.Moeller also talks about the pace of the energy transition and the need for education. “We can reduce our carbon footprint faster if we build more gas-fired generation so that we can turn off coal plants. But that just doesn't make sense to people that think we should turn off combustion because that's how you reduce the carbon footprint,” he said.Clair Moeller leads all aspects of the Operations division at MISO, including grid operations, forward markets, system planning, external affairs, information technology and corporate services. Moeller also has executive responsibility for the compliance and external affairs teams.He is an industry expert with experience in the operation of power systems throughout the Midwest. He is skilled at identifying and implementing the best practices in transmission planning and system operations.Moeller completed the Oxford Advanced Management and Leadership course at Oxford Said Business School, the Executive Management program at the Carlson School of Business, University of Minnesota, and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering from Iowa State University.

The intersection of business and human rights led to the Oxford Said EMBA [Show Summary] Anthony Triolo is a champion of social justice with an impressive work history serving countries all over the globe. He's currently earning his Executive MBA at Oxford Said and shares what led him to the program and how he intends to incorporate his learning in the next steps of his career journey.  Interview with Anthony Triolo, Oxford Said Executive MBA candidate [Show Notes] Thanks for joining me for this, the 454th episode of Admissions Straight Talk. Before I dive into today's interview, I want to invite you to download Ace The EMBA, Expert Advice For The Rising Executive. This free guide will compliment today's podcast and give you suggestions on how to choose the right EMBA program for you, how to differentiate yourself from your competition - in a positive way - and how to present yourself effectively as a business leader who will bring credit to any program that accepts you. Download Ace The EMBA. I'd like to welcome to Admissions Straight Talk, Anthony Triolo. Anthony has an absolutely fascinating background. After graduating from Yale with a bachelor's in history and political science in 2000, he went on to work on the Truth And Reconciliation Commission for Sierra Leone, where he worked from 2003-2009 in differing roles, all relating to justice. He then worked as a Senior Associate for the UN's Special Tribunal for Lebanon at the Hague. After serving in additional roles related to international law and justice, he became the Director of Strategic Initiatives at the Rule of Law Collaborative at the University of South Carolina in 2020. While all the above is extremely impressive and interesting, he has been invited to Admissions Straight Talk because he recently began his Executive MBA at the Oxford Said Business School as an Executive MBA Director Awardee, which earned him a sizable financial award.  Let's get right to it. In preparing for the call, I saw the phrase “transitional justice”, several times in your bios and in your work. So I have to ask you, what is transitional justice? [2:35] Transitional justice is a way to help societies who are grappling with the legacy of massive human rights abuses confront their past so they can move forward and have a more prosperous future. We usually talk about transitional justice in the post-conflict setting. I've worked on transitional justice initiatives on a global scale and usually what that means is prosecuting individuals who were responsible for war crimes that were committed during the conflict. It's about truth telling, telling the story of what happened during the conflict and making recommendations for the way forward. It's about reparative justice for the victims, and it's about institutional reform. How do we repair what was broken and make it better so that the occurrence of violence doesn't happen again? In reality, transitional justice is not only limited to post-conflict societies. It includes all societies across the board, including the U.S. Given your career progress to date, why did you decide to even consider an Executive MBA? [3:51] I'm 20 years into my professional career, and I'm sort of reading the tea leaves. I'm really interested in the intersection of business and human rights. I've worked a lot in the public sector, but I realize in order to really make an impact and have a transformative impact in the world, you need greater partnerships between the public and private sector. I was thinking that the MBA could help me get a better understanding of the private sector to help build those partnerships that are necessary to bring about change in our society. That's what really led me to pursue the Executive MBA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yicKKHheUE What was the most difficult part of the application process for you and how did you deal with it? [4:40] I think it was trying to pick a program that was right for me...

In this conversation with Jerome Fontana we explore some of the fundamental aspects of humanitarian leadership and commonalities that has helped him navigate a 22 year career throughout some of the worlds most war torn areas for the international Committee of Red Cross (ICRC). Mr Jerome Fontana is the new Head of the ICRC delegation in Cairo. Since joining the ICRC in 1998, Mr Fontana has worked in thirteen different countries (Rwanda, India, Uganda, Uzbekistan, Indonesia, China, Palestine, Bangladesh, Nepal, Lebanon, Ivory Coast, Cameroon and Switzerland). Initially he worked as a protection delegate and then as a program coordinator before receiving higher responsibilities in the management of all ICRC operations and security in various countries. Mr Fontana is experienced in supporting Red Cross and Red Crescent societies and national authorities diverse humanitarian fields, including on migration topics and the promotion of international humanitarian law in their respective countries. Mr Fontana holds a master's degree in international relations from the Geneva Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies and a business degree from the Oxford Said Business School. He is married and has three children. In this conversation we examine: · What ICRC does to mitigate and foster positive mental health in these worn torn countries both amongst affected people and staff · Jerome's personal battles with mental health and how he navigates and fosters positive mental health in his own life. · How Jerome found working as a detention delegate in some of the most hostile countries in the world. · The importance of situational awareness both on a day-to-day local basis and a regional basis. · The fundamental principles of ICRC; humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity and universality and what the interplay is between neutrality and influence with authorities or actors that may be in regions that ICRC want to work in. · How ‘sweating the small stuff'/attention to detail helped his day-to-day work. · What Jerome has learnt about leadership through your different appointments through multiple missions in war torn countries. · How mental fortitude and focus been imparted to Jerome and how he instils that within others. · The change in mindset and approach to his own mental health over the past 10 years. I hope you enjoy the conversation with a truly engaging and insightful guest.
