Why should employees articulate your company's purpose - and not just the firm's CEO? In this SHORT LISTEN Breakthroughs speaks with Pauline Asmar, a doctoral researcher at HEC Paris, whose groundbreaking work reframes how purpose actually works inside companies. Drawing on data from nearly 60,000 employees across 469 firms, Asmar reveals that it's the middle managers who translate abstract mission statements into daily motivation - not the top brass. We discuss why this “purpose dialogue” at management/worker level is emerging as a vital new lever for team commitment, how companies can fail despite having purpose statements, and what happens when leaders just parrot slogans instead of listening. Plus, how purpose-washing creates skepticism, and what can be done about it.

Why should employees articulate your company's purpose - and not just the firm's CEO? In this episode of Breakthroughs, we speak with Pauline Asmar, a doctoral researcher at HEC Paris, whose work reframes how purpose works inside companies, at the level of the teams. The research is co-authored by HEC Professor and Purpose Chair director Rodolphe Durand. Drawing on data from nearly 60,000 employees across 469 firms, Asmar reveals that it's the everyday managers who translate abstract purpose statements by the top brass into daily motivation. We discuss why this “purpose dialogue” at management/worker level is emerging as a vital new lever of team commitment, how companies can fail despite having purpose statements, and what happens when leaders just parrot slogans instead of listening and engaging.

Sarah had a "tick fiasco" in the wilderness, and she'll never be the same. We get some updates from Susie about Pete Rose's eligibility for the Baseball Hall of Fame since his death and we hear the scandal involving the Napalm Girl image we discussed recently, and how the wrong photographer may have taken credit for the last fifty years. We hear actually useful happiness tips that are more fun than the usual ones we already know. We learn about scientists who trained parrots to video call each other, and why Sarah wants to know if they were actually "talking" to each other. And we hear how the social birds were also the most likeable. Plus, there is a pigeon thief in New York City, and some people think they're being stolen to be sold for a sport involving the birds in Pennsylvania.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:This episode is sponsored by/brought to you by BetterHelp.

Our show opens with two separate, but inter-related stories. The first is another terror attack on Jews in our country, this time in Bolder, Colorado. A man screaming to “Free Palestine” lit several Jews on fire who had been gathering weekly in support of the hostages still held by Hamas. At the same time, it was reported that several Palestinians were killed trying to get food. In both cases, the Legacy/mainstream media was pro-terrorist. Independent New Media journalist Erin Moran specifically went after Reuters for putting out another fantastical piece of anti-Israeli propaganda. The Media is also confused about why fentanyl drug seizures are at “mysterious” lows along our US-Mexico border. It's almost like these media people don't have functioning brains. This leads us to the Sunday news shows, where we get to demonstrate how dumb and vacuous they are. In fact, we keep waiting for all of the pieces about Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) for his Seig Heil salute, given it was exactly the same as what Elon Musk did after Trump's inauguration. We close with the eruption of Mount Etna and remind the audience just how much carbon emission Mother Nature decided to spew into the skies. It's a chance for me to remind the audience that man-made climate change is one of the greatest hoaxes ever perpetrated on mankind.

It's that time again—grab a Dr. Pepper, toss in a splash of pickle juice (wait, what?), and settle in for another chaotic ride with Mike and Tony.Mike kicks things off with a true crime story straight outta Breckenridge: a coworker's car got robbed at a conference, and someone made off with thousands in museum donations. Oh, and there were no security cameras—because of course there weren't.Meanwhile, Tony's beefing with his third stapler of the school year. Middle schoolers: undefeated.Tony's also officially back in the studio recording his new album, so expect some upcoming social media action (and probably at least one video of him singing barefoot on a rug).We also dive into parrot drama (yes, parrots): one was involved in a murder trial, another made a neighbor call the cops, and Mike reveals his very first parakeet experience.Plus: • The great gorilla vs. 100 men debate just won't die • The domestication of cats (and why they've never respected you) • Tony's new science podcast obsession • Zombie apocalypse weaponry • A preserved dinosaur from 10 million years ago • Kids lighting computers on fire with pencils (WHY?!) • And of course, the eternal struggle of teachers just trying to get basic supplies without selling a kidney.Another unfiltered episode packed with curiosity, chaos, and questionable beverages.⸻Cheers!m&t

The Shrieking Horror ep.770 Andrea M. Pawley lives and writes in Washington, D.C.. She plans to start her own city quadrant as soon as the space-time continuum rips, and a new direction becomes available. Andrea attended Clarion West in 2017 and currently volunteers as the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association Mentorship Program Coordinator. Her stories have appeared in Clarkesworld, Asimov's Science Fiction, and Cosmic Horror Monthly. Andrea's slightly odd takes on writing, art, and Washington D.C. can be found at www.andreapawley.com.   This story was originally published in The Nameless Songs of Zadok Allen and Other Things That Should Not Be, a March 2023 anthology edited by JayHenge Publishing.   ---- Listen Elsewhere ---- YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/TallTaleTV Website: http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- Story Submission ---- Got a short story you'd like to submit? Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

"If you have never been in/around/under a large flock of singing, squawking, vocalising and flying birds you have missed an incredible immersive experience. It leaves your breathless, amazed, scared and humbled. You can lose all touch with your world as the sounds of bird calls and beating wings drowns out everything else.  "As I read about the Khajuiraho temple complex, I began to think of the ancient history of this complex and it's life and how it was reabsorbed by the jungle and the human lives and memories that were here as well as the ancestral memories of the green parrots. The human sounds in and around this complex have changed with the flow of time but the sounds of the large flocks or parrots has remained unchanged and hopefully will remain unchanged as time passes.  "I wasn't sure how to use this recording at first and then I was able to experience a "large flock of birds" moment around my house and it brought back the immersive experience and linked it to the parrots I had been listening to. From there, I wanted to build up sounds relating to the sounds around the temple complex - the dripping of water deep in the temples through cracks in the ancient stone; the music from the modern day festivals captured in a shruti box and musician practicing some ancient stringed instrument, plucking out a contemplative tune as a lament to the parrots and the past."

This dusk chorus recorded at Castle Forest Lodge in Mount Kenya National Park and Forest is a harmonious blend of natural sounds, showcasing the interactions of the forest wildlife at dusk. Different birds are singing melodiously, with the Red-fronted Parrots calling loudly from the thick forest canopy.  The Black and white Colobus Monkeys growl as they retreat into their evening roosts. The gentle dripping of forest fog can be heard falling on leaves.  This vibrant soundscape reflects the Mt. Kenya National Park's status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognized for its scenic beauty, biodiversity, and vital role as a water catchment area. The soundscape immerses listeners in the rhythms of the forest, fostering a deep appreciation for its conservation and the interconnected lives it sustains.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 18th of March, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to 1 Thessalonians 5:24:”Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.Folks, I am so excited today. Do you know that it is the anniversary of 5 years of doing the Thought for The Day, without missing one single day! All the glory, honour and praise go to our Lord Jesus Christ. Yes, we have not missed a single day, not me, or the team, or the producers, or the editors. We have not missed one single day - not when it has been raining, not when the sun has been beating down, not when there has been wind and ice and heat, not one single day. You know, we have tried very hard not to tell the same story twice in 5 years and it can only be God. I have many friends who are preachers, good preachers and they do say it can only be God if you have not repeated yourself once in 5 years. We are reaching out to the ends of the world every single day. I am talking about Christmas Day, Easter, I am talking about seven days of the week, to the end of the world, in the city, in the bush. I have done it from Israel, I have done it from Namibia, I have done it from all over, wherever we go, literally in sickness and in health. Now a lot of you remember, it wasn't that long ago that I could hardly speak. My voice actually went, but by the grace of God, we managed to get those programmes out to you. I want to take this opportunity to thank our team and to thank our producer, our editors. I want to thank those who have done the pictures faithfully, the music. I want to thank the people who are sending it out every single day. I have a gentleman who is one of my spiritual sons, Anton, he sends it out from Cape Town. I think he has over a hundred broadcast groups that he sends out himself.

Was it a prank? Is Fred okay? The answers are murky, but the laughter is real.Next, we dive into the bizarre world of emotional support animals. Monkeys? Parrots? That one guy with the emotional support alligator? Nothing is off-limits as we brainstorm the weirdest pets and most ridiculous dog names this side of sanity.

Have you ever met someone who talks a big game but never backs it up?You know, the kind of person who seems to know everything but does nothing? Well, today, we're diving into the difference between parrots and practitioners—breaking down procedural versus declarative knowledge—and giving you five tactical ways to shift from being a talker to a doer. I haven't always been a practitioner. I used to be a parrot. And today, I want to share how I transitioned and how you can too. A parrot is someone who repeats things they've heard but never actually applies what they've learned. You probably know a few of these people. They attend every seminar, read every book, take every course—but never do anything with the knowledge. They throw around business buzzwords but don't have real-world results to show for it.Parrots thrive on declarative knowledge. That's when you know about something but don't actually do it. Think of someone who's read 10 books on investing but never put a dollar in the market. Or a “health expert” who preaches fitness but doesn't look the partOn the other hand, a practitioner is someone who does the work. They apply what they learn, experiment, fail, refine, and keep pushing forward—whether or not anyone is watching. Practitioners build procedural knowledge, meaning they've lived through the experience and earned their expertise.Practitioners say, “I did,” while parrots say, “I should.” And that distinction makes all the difference. So, how do you make the shift? Here are five tactical steps to go from just talking about success to creating it.Audit Your Knowledge vs. ExecutionAsk yourself: Are you consuming information just to sound smart, or are you applying it? Take stock of what you've learned recently and make a plan to put it into action immediately.Adopt the 70/30 RuleSpend 70% of your time doing and only 30% of your time learning. Reading books is great, but results come from execution. Like Tony Robbins says (and I'm gonna parrot him here), knowledge isn't power—execution is.Set Action-Based GoalsInstead of saying, “I want to start a business,” say, “I will create my first offer and get five paying customers by the end of the month.” Make it specific, measurable, and time-bound.Surround Yourself with PractitionersYou become who you hang out with. If your circle is full of people who talk but never do, it's time to level up your network. That's why we have The Happy Hustle Club—a mastermind of high-level entrepreneurs who are actually taking action.Apply the 48-Hour Rule(Game-Changer!)Whenever you learn something valuable, apply it within 48 hours. This prevents you from becoming a knowledge hoarder and forces you to take action.The world is full of parrots, but success belongs to the practitioners. If you want to truly Happy Hustle your dream life, you need to do the work. Audit your execution, set action-based goals, surround yourself with the right people, and most importantly—apply what you learn.So, are you a parrot or a practitioner?Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsor: Magnesium Breakthrough from BiOptimizers (https://bioptimizers.com/happy)If you've been on a restricted diet lately or maybe even taken some meds to shed those pounds for the summer, I gotta warn ya—be careful!

This is an excerpt from our live parrot recall training, focusing on the pitfalls of over-training and the importance of recall in various scenarios. We share examples of a black palm cockatoo named Jupiter, whose wings were rehabilitated using falconry techniques, and a 24-year-old cockatoo named Henry, who was initially clipped. Hillary emphasized the need for systematic and methodical training, avoiding forceful interactions, and using neutral or positive reinforcers. She highlighted the importance of generalizing recall to different environments and surfaces, and the potential issues of circular reinforcement. She also addressed specific questions about training a blue and gold Macaw, stressing the need for space and appropriate training methods.
