“Organizational culture doesn't come from words on the wall, but culture depends on what gets rewarded, what gets tolerated, and what gets quietly punished when nobody is watching the wall.” In this solo episode, Meg Rentschler explores why organizations often act against their stated values when under pressure. Meg defines culture through practices that are modeled and measured, offering coaches five diagnostic questions closely related to the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership. She shares a client story, along with a “Say-Do Audit” tool to identify whether company values are genuinely lived or simply fiction. Join us to learn more!Show Highlights:A working definition of culture that makes senseSee the gap and close the gap. Five questions and how they match with the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership:“What happened the last time someone on this team disagreed with a decision publicly?” (This aligns with “Enable others to ask questions.”)“What's something everyone on this team knows is true, but no one says aloud?” (This exposes the “Model the way” failure.)“Regarding the last person promoted here, what behavior got them promoted?” (This is a “Challenge the process” question in disguise.)“When was the last time this team missed a deadline or made a mistake? What happened next?” (This tests the “Encourage the heart” practice.)“If a brand new employee shadowed this team for one week, what would they conclude actually matters here?” (This is an “Inspire to shared vision” check.)Client examples from Meg about innovation vs. compliance“Your highest value in organizational culture work is not as a mural painter but as a mirror.”How to use the “Say-Do Audit” of an organization's stated valuesThe key is to let the team recognize and sit with the gap before moving to action.

Mentioned in this episode:Mentor ProgramIf you're working toward your ACC or PCC credential, or if it's time to recertify your ACC mentor, coaching isn't just a requirement on a checklist. It's one of the most transformative investments you can make in yourself and your coaching. I've taught or mentored over 2000 coaches, and I hear the same thing again and again. I came because I had to, and I am so glad that I did. Coaches tell me they walk away with renewed energy, deeper confidence and a community of peers who genuinely support each other. Here's what you need to know right now. Mentor coaching must span a minimum of three months, so the time to start is not when your credential is just about to expire. And if you complete your hours in 2026, you get ahead of the upcoming ICF changes, which means peace of mind along with skill development. My fall cohort is already filling up.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta segunda-feira (20): A partir desta segunda-feira (20), os partidos políticos podem realizar as convenções partidárias para definir os candidatos que disputarão as eleições de 2026. O prazo para a realização das convenções vai até 5 de agosto. Nessa etapa são definidas as chapas para deputado estadual, deputado federal, senador, governador e presidente da República. Após a escolha dos nomes, os partidos têm até 15 de agosto para registrar as candidaturas na Justiça Eleitoral, e a campanha eleitoral começa oficialmente no dia 16 de agosto. As eleições serão realizadas em 4 de outubro. Reportagem: André Anelli. O presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva chega ao recesso parlamentar com pelo menos 23 derrotas consideradas relevantes no Congresso Nacional desde o início do terceiro mandato. O cenário para os próximos meses é visto como mais desafiador, já que o calendário eleitoral reduzirá o período de votações no Legislativo. A diminuição das sessões pode dificultar o avanço de propostas prioritárias do Palácio do Planalto, como a PEC que prevê a redução da jornada semanal para 40 horas e o fim da escala 6x1. Desde 2023, o governo enfrentou derrotas em votações, derrubada de vetos, projetos sem apoio suficiente, perda de espaço político e a rejeição de uma indicação ao Supremo Tribunal Federal. Reportagem: André Anelli. Os Estados Unidos condicionaram a redução das tarifas impostas sobre produtos brasileiros à concessão de benefícios comerciais e de regulações favoráveis a empresas americanas. A sinalização indica que uma eventual diminuição do chamado tarifaço dependerá de negociações entre os dois países e da adoção de medidas que atendam às demandas apresentadas pelo governo dos Estados Unidos. Reportagem: Talita Souza. O Comando Central das Forças Armadas dos Estados Unidos realizou uma nova série de ataques contra o Irã, no nono dia consecutivo de bombardeios. A ofensiva teve como alvo instalações militares e centros de comando, em resposta à morte de três militares americanos. Os EUA também reforçaram sua presença militar no Oriente Médio, enquanto Donald Trump afirmou que o Irã foi atingido de forma "muito dura". Reportagem: Luca Bassani. O Tribunal de Justiça de São Paulo (TJ-SP) negou, por maioria, o novo pedido de habeas corpus apresentado pela defesa da advogada e influenciadora digital Deolane Bezerra. Presa preventivamente por suspeita de participação em um esquema de lavagem de dinheiro ligado ao PCC, investigado na Operação Vérnix da Polícia Civil de São Paulo, Deolane permanece na Penitenciária Feminina de Tupi Paulista. A defesa solicitava a transferência para uma Sala de Estado-Maior ou a concessão de prisão domiciliar, mas a relatora do caso, desembargadora Renata William Rached Catelli, entendeu que, como a inscrição de Deolane na OAB está suspensa, ela não tem direito à Sala de Estado-Maior. Reportagem: David de Tarso. As exportações brasileiras para a União Europeia cresceram US$ 2 bilhões nos meses de maio e junho, os dois primeiros meses após a entrada em vigor provisória do acordo comercial entre Mercosul e o bloco europeu, segundo levantamento da ApexBrasil. A alta foi de 26% em comparação com o mesmo período de 2025. No acumulado do primeiro semestre, as vendas do Brasil para a União Europeia chegaram a US$ 26,9 bilhões, um aumento de US$ 3 bilhões, ou 12,8%, em relação ao mesmo período do ano anterior. As plataformas digitais que operam no Brasil têm até esta segunda-feira (20) para se adequar às novas regras de fiscalização e responsabilização previstas no decreto 12.975 de 2026, publicado em maio pelo governo federal. A norma regulamenta a decisão do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) que restringiu a aplicação do artigo 19 do Marco Civil da Internet e ampliou as obrigações das empresas no combate a conteúdos criminosos.

Today's guest introduces us to the concept of capacity: the gap between the effort someone puts in and the impact they get out. You'll learn why capacity isn't a fixed container, like a gas tank or battery, but a nervous-system bandwidth that is completely trainable. You'll discover how a coach's own dysregulation bleeds into the coaching relationship through nervous system co-regulation, and why two clients can present with identical stated goals. At the same time, one is ready for strategy and the other needs nervous system regulation first, and how coaches can learn to read “the thing beneath the thing.” Join us for practical strategies, a “feel-think-do” framework, and the path to your free capacity report card self-assessment. Dr. Lizette Warner is a keynote speaker and leadership capacity expert who helps organizations solve the effort-to-impact disconnect so they can build cultures where people make a bigger impact with less effort, while increasing engagement and retention. With a PhD. in Biomedical Engineering, 20+ years of executive leadership experience in science and health technology, and certification as a Master Certified Coach through the ICF, Lizette sits at a rare intersection of scientific precision, executive credibility, and embodied transformation. Her Hashimoto's diagnosis, an autoimmune condition she now understands as her body's response to years of unregulated performance, was the turning point that reoriented everything she knew about achievement and performance. Today, she speaks at corporate conferences, leadership retreats, and executive events on topics including leadership under pressure, high-performance culture, decision-making, and workplace resilience.

Executive Summary AI strategic thinking for women executives is no longer optional — it's the dividing line between leaders who get exposed and those who get elevated. Executive coach Sabrina Braham and author Barry O'Reilly reveal how to build your judgment system, accelerate decisions, and think strategically at the highest level. Quick Takeaways Barry O'Reilly's defining insight: "AI is not going to replace leaders — it's going to expose them." Most executives have never documented their judgment system — and AI makes this gap impossible to hide. Decision velocity + decision advantage are the two metrics separating leaders who accelerate from those who stall. Misty Schaefer, VP at American Airlines, uses AI voice notes and scenario planning for orders-of-magnitude better decisions. The biggest missed opportunity in AI leadership is not learning together — yet the fastest learners do exactly that. There's a line on the back of Barry O'Reilly's new book that every woman executive needs to sit with: "AI is not going to replace leaders. It's going to expose them." AI strategic thinking for women executives is no longer a competitive edge — it's fast becoming the baseline expectation at the director, VP, and C-suite level. I'm Sabrina Braham, executive leadership coach (MA, MFT, PCC) with 30+ years of experience, and host of the Women's Leadership Success Podcast — top 1.5% globally with almost 900,000 downloads. My clients include leaders at Stanford University, Ernst & Young, and Autodesk. And what I see in my coaching practice right now is a clear divide emerging: women executives who are building AI-enhanced judgment, and those who are still relying on invisible, inarticulate intuition they've never made explicit. AI is about to make that gap impossible to hide. This is Part 2 of my conversation with Barry O'Reilly — author of Artificial Organizations: Build Better Judgment, Speed, and Results with Machine and Human Intelligence, keynote speaker at Gartner's CFO Conference, and one of the most sought-after AI leadership advisors in the world. In Part 1, we covered how women leaders can use AI to build personal career confidence and grow into bigger roles. Here, we go deeper — into the strategic leadership capabilities that will define who rises at the executive level in 2026 and beyond. New research from Chief and The Harris Poll (2026) confirms that 85% of senior women leaders are now active players in their organization's AI strategy — and 68% are focused on using AI to amplify human talent, not replace it. The leaders pulling ahead are those who've moved beyond productivity tools into something more fundamental: AI-enhanced judgment systems. The Uncomfortable Truth: AI Will Expose Leaders Without a Judgment System When Barry walks into executive rooms around the world, he asks a deceptively simple question: "Show me your system for making this decision." The silence that follows is telling. "Often, a lot of the time, they just don't have a system," he explains. "They've never systematically written down all the steps they're going to go through to make an actual decision." For most leaders, the judgment system — the internal algorithm for weighing options, prioritizing inputs, and reaching decisions — has never been made explicit. It works. But it has four critical limitations: It's not visible — others can't observe or learn from it. It's not repeatable — it can't be consistently applied by or handed off to others. It's not challengeable — if it's in your head, no one can push back on its blind spots. It's not improvable — you can't deliberately tune what you can't see. In my 30+ years of executive coaching, this is one of the most consistent patterns I see in women leaders who are passed over for promotion despite exceptional performance: their judgment is excellent — but it's invisible. They can't teach it, transfer it, or demonstrate it in the way boards and senior leaders need to see. AI strategic thinking for women executives forces this reckoning, and the leaders who embrace it rather than resist it will define the next decade of leadership. Here's what my Leading Before You're Ready playbook addresses directly: building the judgment, presence, and strategic clarity that precedes you into every room — before you hold the formal title. AI doesn't change that mission. It accelerates it. What Is a Judgment System — and Do You Have One? A judgment system is the explicit process and criteria you use to make leadership decisions: the information you seek first, the variables you weigh, the sequence you follow, and the principles that guide your final choice. For most leaders, this system exists — but it lives entirely in their heads, accumulated through years of experience and pattern recognition. It works. But it has critical limitations that AI strategic thinking for women executives can directly address. The Judgment System Exercise Barry Uses With Executive Teams Here's the exercise Barry runs at the opening of his executive engagements — and one I now recommend for every leader I coach: Name a key decision coming up for your team. Be specific: a resource allocation decision, a product investment, a market expansion choice. Draw out your judgment system for making that decision. What information do you look for first? What criteria matter most? What's your sequence of evaluation? What would make you say yes — or no? Share your judgment system with your peers. This is where the transformation happens. A VP of Marketing and a VP of Finance, both making the same type of decision, suddenly realize they weight customer behavior and market size differently — and neither has ever made that explicit in shared decision-making. Identify the gaps. Where is your information current and reliable? Where is it outdated, incomplete, or missing entirely? What would better information change? "Suddenly you have groups of people sitting around going, 'I've never done this before,'" Barry explains. "And they're right. Most executive teams have never made their collective judgment infrastructure explicit." From a coaching perspective, I want to highlight what this exercise does beyond improving decision quality: when you can articulate how you make decisions — not just what decisions you make — you demonstrate the executive presence that earns trust and bigger responsibilities. This is exactly what I teach in the Leading Before You're Ready playbook. Judgment Infrastructure: The Data Ecosystem That Feeds Your Decisions Once leaders map their judgment systems, Barry introduces a second connected concept: judgment infrastructure — the data ecosystem that feeds your decision-making algorithm. Barry asks leaders: "Across your company, how are you getting the information you need to run your judgment system?" The answers reveal how fragile most leadership data environments actually are. "I have a spreadsheet I get once a month." "Our customer records are three months out of date." "I usually get that information from a conversation with someone else, so it depends on who I ask." The principle is clear: the output of any system is determined by the quality of its inputs. Poor-quality, delayed, or incomplete information fed into even an excellent judgment system produces poor decisions. For women executives in tech leading AI-adjacent organizations, understanding how to design and govern your information ecosystem — not just receive reports — is a defining capability for 2026. Decision Velocity + Decision Advantage: The Two Metrics That Define Executive Performance Barry's work with high-performing organizations has surfaced two metrics that consistently predict which leaders — and companies — pull ahead: Decision velocity: How fast can you move from problem identification to a well-reasoned decision? Not impulsive speed — calibrated speed supported by quality process. Decision advantage: How current, accurate, and comprehensive is the information available to you when you need to decide? Real-time — or three months stale? "That is how companies, startups, businesses power ahead," Barry explains. "They learn faster, they make decisions at a high velocity, and the information to support those decisions is to hand in real time."   AI dramatically accelerates both metrics. A meeting co-pilot that captures and synthesizes every conversation means you're never walking into a decision without full context. Barry describes his own routine: "I run a process either the day before, the morning of, or even five minutes before I meet someone. It runs all the last conversations we've had against my judgment system for the meeting I'm about to have." He shows up to every conversation with full context, clear priorities, and the calm that comes from genuine preparation. That calm is not incidental. As I always tell the executives I coach: your cognitive and emotional state in high-stakes situations is a performance variable. Anything that reduces cognitive load — like AI capturing your meeting context — directly improves your effectiveness in those moments. AI strategic thinking for women executives isn't just a professional tool. It's a confidence tool. Case Study: How Misty Schaefer Uses AI to Lead American Airlines Strategically The most vivid example Barry shared of AI strategic thinking in action involves Misty Schaefer Sern, VP of Consumer Technology at American Airlines — responsible for AA.com, the mobile app, and every digital touch point the world's largest airline uses to serve customers. Misty's natural trait: she has her best ideas on the move — walking the terminal, talking to ground staff, observing what's happening at the gate. The traditional problem: those ideas used to evaporate between the inspiration and the desk. ...

High-performing lawyers are drowning in billable hours, perfectionism, and constant interruptions—but it doesn't have to be that way. In this episode, you'll learn practical strategies to delegate better, protect your time, and manage stress so you can build a sustainable practice without burning out.   In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Ellen Cohen discuss: Transition from in-house entertainment lawyer to leadership coach Biggest stressors and billable-hour pressure in modern law practice Delegation myths and the real cost of “it's easier if I do it myself” Time management, prioritization, and managing interruptions Perfectionism, neuroscience of stress, and practical self-care habits   Key Takeaways: Treating every task as equally urgent and important is a fast track to burnout; you must distinguish between high-value, urgent work and tasks that can be delegated or delayed. The mindset of “it's easier if I do it myself” hides a massive hidden cost in lost billable hours, lost growth, and lost personal time. Truly effective delegation requires training others, tolerating imperfection in the short term, and focusing your time on work that matches your highest value and rate. Perfectionism may look professional on the surface, but it often comes from self-limiting beliefs and dramatically slows productivity while increasing stress and risk of burnout. Chronic stress pushes you into fight-or-flight, which makes clear thinking neurologically harder and raises the risk of malpractice—regular breaks, movement, and joy-producing activities are therefore performance tools, not luxuries.   "When you're stressed out, when you're in fight or flight, when you're in your sympathetic nervous system, you actually cannot neurologically think clearly, and it elevates your risk of malpractice, making mistakes, errors, reactivity, emotional responses that are not in line. You cannot work as efficiently." —  Ellen Cohen   Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.   Join the Be That Lawyer Community and connect with ambitious lawyers who are serious about growing their book of business, strengthening their brand, and becoming confident, consistent rainmakers.   Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Um porta-voz do Departamento de Estado classificou como “absurda” a posição do Ministério das Relações Exteriores e afirmou que os EUA adotam medidas com base em suas prerrogativas soberanas no combate ao narcoterrorismo. O Comando Central dos Estados Unidos confirmou o início de novos ataques contra o Irã após o presidente Donald Trump considerar encerrada a trégua no conflito. Segundo as Forças Armadas americanas, a ofensiva busca reduzir a capacidade iraniana de ameaçar a navegação no Estreito de Ormuz e ocorre em meio à nova escalada das tensões no Oriente Médio. A Polícia Federal cumpriu mandado de busca e apreensão na residência onde o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro cumpre prisão domiciliar, no Distrito Federal. A ação foi determinada pelo ministro Alexandre de Moraes para localizar armas, munições e registros de armamentos. Segundo a defesa de Bolsonaro, nada foi encontrado, enquanto o senador Flávio Bolsonaro classificou a operação como constrangedora e afirmou que se trata de uma “cortina de fumaça”. O pré-candidato à Presidência Ronaldo Caiado (PSD) criticou a postura do senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) nas discussões sobre as tarifas dos Estados Unidos. Caiado classificou a posição do adversário como “inaceitável” e afirmou que a candidatura do filho do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro pode favorecer a reeleição do presidente Lula (PT). Nova pesquisa Gerp/AESP mostra Flávio Bolsonaro com 45% das intenções de voto em uma simulação de segundo turno contra Lula (PT), que aparece com 42%, configurando empate técnico dentro da margem de erro. O levantamento também apontou os principais problemas do país que podem influenciar o voto dos eleitores, como segurança, corrupção e saúde.

It's one of the most transformative investments you can make in yourself and your coaching. I've taught or mentored over 2000 coaches, and I hear the same thing again and again. I came because I had to, and I am so glad that I did. Coaches tell me they walk away with renewed energy, deeper confidence and a community of peers who genuinely support each other. Here's what you need to know right now. Mentor coaching must span a minimum of three months, so the time to start is not when your credential is just about to expire. And if you complete your hours in 2026, you get ahead of the upcoming ICF changes, which means peace of mind along with skill development. My fall cohort is already filling up. Every group is capped at ten. It's small, personal, and powerful. If you've been waiting for the right time, this is it. So head over to Star Coach Show.

O pré-candidato do União Brasil ao Senado pelo Rio de Janeiro, Márcio Canella, foi preso nesta terça-feira (07) após a Polícia Federal (PF) encontrar um fuzil em seu carro, durante cumprimento de mandado de busca e apreensão expedido na 6ª fase da Operação Unha e Carne.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta quarta-feira (08): O governo dos Estados Unidos classificou como "absurda" a hipótese de uma ação militar contra o Brasil levantada pelo Itamaraty. Washington afirmou que combate o narcoterrorismo de forma soberana e justificou a possível classificação do PCC e do Comando Vermelho como organizações terroristas. Segundo os americanos, as facções já atuam em território dos EUA. Reportagem: Matheus Dias. O senador Hamilton Mourão voltou a defender a revisão das penas dos condenados pelos atos de 8 de janeiro. Em discurso no Senado, criticou a demora do STF em analisar o tema e afirmou que a anistia seria o melhor caminho para promover a pacificação nacional. Para o parlamentar, a questão passou a ter caráter humanitário. A Justiça do Distrito Federal manteve a condenação do deputado Rogério Correia (PT-MG) por compartilhar uma imagem criada com inteligência artificial envolvendo Jair Bolsonaro. O parlamentar deverá pagar R$ 20 mil de indenização ao ex-presidente. A alegação de imunidade parlamentar e de conteúdo satírico foi rejeitada. Governo federal e Frente Parlamentar da Agropecuária encerraram sem acordo a reunião sobre a renegociação das dívidas de produtores rurais afetados por eventos climáticos.

O parlamentar criticou o grupo político, comentou a prisão de Marcio Canella e avaliou que o bolsonarismo enfrentará dificuldades para eleger candidatos ao Senado no Rio de Janeiro. Pesquisa Datafolha mostra que parte dos eleitores de Lula e de Flávio Bolsonaro não se identifica com o espectro ideológico tradicional de seus candidatos. O levantamento aponta que há eleitores de direita apoiando Lula e eleitores de esquerda declarando voto em Flávio Bolsonaro. A Polícia Federal cumpriu mandado de busca e apreensão na residência do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro, em Brasília, por determinação do ministro Alexandre de Moraes. A operação buscava armas, munições e documentos de registro. Segundo a defesa, nenhum material foi encontrado.

Confira no Morning Show desta quarta-feira (08): A Polícia Federal realizou um mandado de busca e apreensão na casa do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL) por ordem do ministro do Supremo Tribunal Federal Alexandre de Moraes. O motivo da busca foi a falta de informação sobre o paradeiro de armas e munições que não foram entregues à PF. Nada foi encontrado na residência do ex-presidente, porém, uma espingarda declarada ainda não foi entregue às autoridades. O deputado federal Otoni de Paula (PSD), ex-aliado de do grupo político bolsonarista, afirmou em discurso na Câmara dos Deputados que os membros do Partido Liberal são “uma cambada de ladrões” e acusou o partido de roubar os aposentados do estado do Rio de Janeiro através do escândalo do Banco Master. O senador e pré-candidato à Presidência da República, Flávio Bolsonaro (PL), afirmou na audiência do Escritório do Representante Comercial dos Estados Unidos (USTR), que este é “o pior momento” para aplicação de tarifas contra o Brasil, que está prestes a entrar em um período eleitoral. Segundo Flávio, um novo tarifaço favoreceria uma possível reeleição de Lula. O governo brasileiro repudiou as falas do senador e pré-candidato à Presidência da República, Flávio Bolsonaro (PL), na audiência do Escritório do Representante Comercial dos Estados Unidos (USTR), que discute novas tarifas de 25% em produtos do Brasil. Em nota, o Palácio do Planalto afirmou: “divergir é legítimo. Convocar uma potência estrangeira a pressionar o próprio país, é traição à Pátria”. O Tribunal de Justiça de São Paulo está implantando varas especializadas no combate ao crime organizado no estado. Entre as novas varas específicas criadas estão as de: crimes tributários, organização criminosa e a de lavagem de bens. A cerimônia contou com a presença do presidente do Conselho Nacional de Justiça, ministro Edson Fachin. A Polícia Federal está realizando na manhã desta quarta-feira (08), operações em 15 estados brasileiros contra a lavagem de dinheiro do crime organizado. Foram cumpridos 93 mandados de prisão e 180 de busca e apreensão. O governo americano classificou como “absurda” a hipótese de operações militares em solo brasileiro por conta da classificação de facções criminosas como CV e PCC como grupos terroristas. Segundo os EUA, serão tomadas medidas contra esses grupos apenas em seu próprio território, onde já atuam. A resposta veio após manifestação do ministro das Relações Exteriores, Mauro Vieira. A Justiça brasileira mandou soltar uma mulher acusada de ligação com o Primeiro Comando da Capital. A mulher, que estava em prisão temporária de no máximo cinco dias, sofre sanções do governo americano, como bloqueio em contas. A vereadora Deza Guerreiro (PP) de Novo Hamburgo, no Rio Grande do Sul, recebeu uma caixa em seu gabinete com um cachorro morto. A parlamentar tem como uma de suas principais bandeiras a defesa da causa animal e interpretou o caso como uma ameaça. O deputado federal Zé Trovão (PL) participou de um podcast em que se discutia sobre os atos de 8 de janeiro e afirmou que o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL) teve uma atitude “covarde” ao ficar em silêncio após a derrota em 2022 e que o ex-presidente “errou” ao não mandar seus apoiadores para casa após perder as eleições “gerando a prisão de pessoas inocentes”. A mais recente pesquisa DataFolha mostra que dentre os eleitores do presidente Lula, 24% se consideram de direita, enquanto entre os eleitores de Flávio Bolsonaro, 18% se consideram de esquerda. Segundo o especialista em comunicação Samer Agi, o cenário mostra que a eleição de outubro deve ser decidida pela rejeição, e não pela aprovação dos candidatos majoritários.

A preocupação foi externada em documento enviado pelo ministro das Relações Exteriores, Mauro Vieira, à Câmara. O presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, chamou o árbitro brasileiro Raphael Claus de “muito suspeito” ao comentar a expulsão do atacante Folarin Balogun, dos Estados Unidos, contra a Bósnia-Herzegovina, em partida válida pela Copa do Mundo.

Confira no Morning Show desta terça-feira (07): O ministro das Relações Exteriores, Mauro Vieira, admitiu que o ato americano de tornar facções criminosas brasileiras como Comando Vermelho e Primeiro Comando da Capital em grupos terroristas abre brecha para atuação militar dos Estados Unidos em solo nacional.

O Governo Federal apresentou uma defesa oficial contra um relatório feito pelo Representante Comercial dos Estados Unidos, o USTR, que acusa o Brasil de utilização de mão de obra escrava e práticas comerciais desleais. Segundo o Itamaraty, o relatório é “arbitrária” e “inverídica”. O relatório serve como base para aplicação de um novo tarifaço contra o Brasil. O procurador-geral da República, Paulo Gonet, defendeu em manifestação enviada ao Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), que os autos do inquérito de uma suposta calúnia feita pelo senador e pré-candidato à Presidência da República Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) em rede social, retornem à Polícia Federal para depoimento formal.

A Interpol adicionou o nome de Hércules da Costa Siqueira, suspeito de tentar executar o tenente da ROTA Ronickson Pimentel dos Santos.

Como no cisma anterior, de 1988, o caso envolve o grupo fundado pelo arcebispo francês Marcel Lefebvre. A Santa Sé definiu regras para quem quiser deixar a excomunhão e “voltar à unidade”. A lista inclui a aceitação formal do Concílio Vaticano II, a submissão ao papa e a rejeição a alguns fundamentos da ultratradicionalista FSSPX. Oficialmente, o Vaticano chamou a nomeação de quatro bispos pelo grupo, sem o aval de Leão XIV, de “ato de natureza cismática” – isto é, de dissidência.

A mais recente pesquisa Atlas Intel/Bloomberg, que avalia fatos políticos e não a eleição em si, aponta que o suposto envolvimento do senador e ex-líder do governo no Senado, Jaques Wagner (PT), com Daniel Vorcaro, atrapalha a gestão federal e uma possível reeleição do presidente Lula (PT). A Procuradoria-Geral da República defendeu a manutenção da prisão domiciliar do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL), mas afirmou que há necessidade da retirada da arma de fogo de Bolsonaro encontrada em uma blitz em Brasília com um segurança. Em 48 horas, a defesa do ex-presidente deve responder o inquérito sobre o caso e, após isso, o ministro do Supremo Alexandre de Moraes irá apresentar um parecer mantendo a domiciliar ou reconduzindo Jair Bolsonaro ao Complexo Penitenciário da Papuda. O presidente do Senado Federal, Davi Alcolumbre (União), defendeu o fim da escala 6x1 sem um período de transição durante uma reunião com representantes sindicais nesta quarta-feira (1°). O governador Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicanos) inaugurou a Linha 6-Laranja do Metrô de São Paulo. A nova linha terá 15 estações ao todo, mas por enquanto o trecho entregue é de seis estações, entre Santa Marina e Perdizes. A inauguração ocorre dois dias antes da restrição do TSE para publicidade institucional. Um homem de 43 anos foi retirado debaixo de escombros na capital venezuelana nesta quinta-feira (02), oito dias após os terremotos que devastaram diversas cidades do país. A Câmara dos Deputados aprovou o regime de urgência para a votação do PL da misoginia. A urgência permite que o projeto seja votado sem precisar passar por comissões. A deputada federal Julia Zanatta (PL) comenta o assunto. Uma mulher foi presa após confessar ter assassinado um casal de idosos em Belo Horizonte (MG). A diarista Paola Stefano Neto Cirino foi capturada pela polícia em Itabira, região central de Minas Gerais, após matar os patrões com 24 facadas e vender cerca de R$ 3 mil em itens roubados da casa das vítimas. O reality show entre funcionários criado pela influenciadora Viih Tube e seu marido, o também influenciador Eliezer, virou alvo do Ministério Público do Trabalho. O programa, que saiu do ar após críticas na internet, promovia competições entre os empregados da residência do casal em troca de prêmios em dinheiro e benefícios no trabalho.

Please listen and enjoy!What do you tell yourself about what you're worth? This is a major obstacle for many coaches, and we covered this important topic in one of the most talked-about episodes in recent STaR Coach Show history. Meg Rentschler sat down with John Ray, author of The Generosity Mindset and host of The Price and Value Journey podcast, to tackle this most uncomfortable topic. John uncovers red flags in pricing, the mindsets that hold service providers back, and practical pricing strategies. The conversation wraps up with a vision of what adequate pricing could make possible for you: fewer clients, more revenue, and the freedom to choose how you spend your time. Join us to learn more!John Ray is a consultant and business coach who advises expert service providers, including consultants, coaches, attorneys, fractional executives, and other service professionals, on two of their biggest challenges: pricing and business development. As an author and podcast host, he is passionate about how shifts in mindset, positioning, and pricing can alter a business and a business owner's lifestyle choices. Show Highlights:Red flags of inadequate pricing: pricing by the hour, working too hard for too little money, accepting EVERY client, offering only ONE service at ONE price, and letting the market pass you by. “You need a certain number of clients who are saying NO because you are too expensive.” –John RayAs a service provider, YOU are the product.Mindsets that get in the way of success for service providers: impostor syndrome, inadequacy, the helper trap, and the comparison spiralGenerosity Mindset: Getting in the head of your clients and understanding where they see value in what we deliver.An example of the generosity mindset at work in the intangibles“The effectiveness of your pricing is constrained by your willingness to have a value conversation.” –John RaySales vs. serving people (in understanding their needs, wants, hopes, desires, and fears)Considerations in offering differentiated options to clients with a “good, better, best pricing model”Understanding the stages of the pricing journeyAdvice about creating long-term clientsDon't turn yourself into a commodity!Pricing adequately will help you achieve the ultimate goal of working less and earning more.

Executive Summary: Most women leaders know AI could accelerate their careers—but don't know where to start. Executive coach Sabrina Braham and author Barry O'Reilly reveal the Traits, Tasks, and Tools framework that eliminates AI paralysis, builds confidence in unfamiliar leadership roles, and helps women leaders AI career growth into bigger opportunities—starting this week. Quick Takeaways: 69% of women say AI has opened new career pathways—but only for those who start using it now (ANSR Women in Tech Report, 2026). The Traits, Tasks, Tools framework reveals how to match AI to the way you personally do your best work. Use AI to pressure-test your thinking—never to hand over your judgment. That distinction changes everything. Asking AI "What questions should I be asking as a VP?" instantly elevates your perspective without years of experience. The worst thing you can do in a time of AI uncertainty is nothing. You must be in it to learn it. You know you should be using AI. You've heard the urgency, seen the headlines, maybe even opened ChatGPT, stared at that blinking cursor—and quietly closed the tab. Here's what I want you to know: that moment of hesitation doesn't mean you're behind. It means you haven't yet found your entry point. I'm Sabrina Braham, executive leadership coach (MA, MFT, PCC) with 30+ years of experience, and host of the Women's Leadership Success Podcast—top 1.5% globally with over 950,000 downloads. I coach senior women leaders at Stanford, Ernst & Young, Autodesk, and across the tech industry. And one of the most common things I hear from directors, VPs, and C-suite executives right now is: "I don't know where to start with AI." New research backs this up: Chief and The Harris Poll surveyed 1,000+ senior women leaders in 2026 and found that while 85% are active players in their organization's AI strategy, the approach matters enormously. The leaders who get ahead aren't the ones who automate the most—they're the ones who build human capability alongside AI. And according to the ANSR Women in Tech Report 2026, 69% of women who do engage with AI report it opens entirely new career pathways in product strategy, transformation leadership, and AI governance. In this episode of the Women's Leadership Success Podcast, I welcome back Barry O'Reilly—author of Artificial Organizations: Build Better Judgment, Speed, and Results with Machine and Human Intelligence, keynote speaker at Gartner's CFO Conference, and one of the most sought-after AI leadership advisors in the world. Since our last conversation, Barry has been traveling globally—observing how leaders at every level are (and aren't) adapting to AI. His findings are equal parts sobering and energizing. This is Part 1 of a two-part series. Here, we focus on women leaders using AI for personal growth, confidence, and career advancement. In Part 2, we go deeper into how AI can transform your strategic thinking and decision-making as an executive leader. Why Women Leaders Are Paralyzed at the AI Starting Line After keynoting Gartner's CFO Conference and spending months in leadership rooms across North America, Barry reports seeing the same pattern everywhere: hesitation. "People don't really know where to start," he says. "They constantly hear about new tools arriving in the market. They hear that everything they were meant to do last week is no longer the right thing to do this week. And it all leads to hesitation—which, counterintuitively, is the worst possible response." I know this directly from my coaching practice. I've spoken with women leaders who are brilliant, accomplished, and deeply capable—who are also avoiding AI entirely because they don't know what to do first. And I understand it, because I was there too. When I first started exploring AI, I treated it as if it were smarter than me—as if whatever it said must be right. That mindset kept me small. What changed? Doing the exercises in Barry's book. Going through them shifted me from intimidated observer to active director. Now, AI is my servant—I correct it, challenge it, redirect it. My creative and analytical output has genuinely expanded as a result. "Counterintuitively, the worst thing you can do when there's uncertainty is do nothing. Because you don't learn anything." — Barry O'Reilly This matters especially for women in tech, where the stakes are already high. The ANSR 2026 report found that despite women producing 43% of the world's female STEM graduates, only 14% hold C-suite seats. The gap isn't pipeline—it's systems. AI fluency is rapidly becoming one of those systemic differentiators. The women who build it now will have compounding advantage; those who wait will face a steeper climb. My Leading Before You're Ready playbook is built on exactly this truth: you don't wait to feel fully prepared. You use every available tool—coaching, community, AI—to think and show up at the level you're stepping into. The Traits, Tasks, and Tools Framework: The Smarter Way to Start with AI Most people approach AI for women leaders career growth backwards. They hear about a tool, jump into it, hunt for something useful to do, get mediocre results, and conclude AI isn't for them. Barry's Traits, Tasks, and Tools framework—one of the most referenced frameworks in Artificial Organizations—completely resequences this. The problem: "Most people with this technology just jump straight into the tool. They try to figure out a task to use it for. And only if ever do they ask themselves how they actually do their best work." That backwards approach locks you into the tool's opinions about how work should be done—which may have nothing to do with how you create your best thinking. Trait-First: Start With How YOU Do Your Best Work Before you open any AI tool, answer honestly: When do I do my best thinking? Are you a talker? Your best ideas emerge in conversation and dialogue. Are you a writer? You process and synthesize by putting things on paper. Are you a visual thinker? You need diagrams, maps, and frameworks to see clearly. Do you need solitude and quiet to generate insight, or energy and people? Barry's personal discovery here is instructive. Dyslexic and self-described as a D-student in English literature, he'd spent years trying to write like he imagined writers wrote—sitting quietly, composing prose. "I drank a lot of wine and sat by a lot of fires, but I didn't create much content." Once he recognized that his natural trait was talking, everything changed. He hired a journalist to interview him conversationally, used transcription to capture the output, and went from blank pages to 10,000 words of book content in roughly three hours. That's not a productivity hack. That's a trait-matched workflow—and it's what women leaders using AI for career growth need to build for themselves. Task-Next: Where Does Your Leadership Create the Most Value? Once you know your traits, identify the tasks where you create outsized value. Not the email and calendar management—the strategic work that shapes your team, your organization, and your career trajectory. This might be: Synthesizing complex information into clear executive recommendations Preparing for high-stakes meetings and presentations Developing your team's thinking and capability Building strategic scenarios and options for decision-making Crafting your executive narrative for visibility and advancement Tool-Last: Find What Matches Both Your Traits and Your Tasks Only now do you select tools. Barry matched his "talker" trait and "content creation" task to meeting co-pilots and transcription tools. For women leaders with different trait profiles: If you're a talker preparing for board presentations: Use voice-to-text capture combined with a generative AI to structure and refine your speaking points. Tools like Otter.ai for capture and Claude or ChatGPT for synthesis are a natural combination. If you're a writer preparing strategic memos: Use AI as a sophisticated thinking partner—share your draft, ask it to steelman the opposing view, and challenge every assumption. If you're a visual thinker: Use AI to generate frameworks and then render them in tools like Miro or Canva. Ask AI to "map this decision as a 2x2 matrix" and then build on what it generates. How AI Builds Leadership Confidence in Unfamiliar Territory This is the angle I brought to this conversation that Barry told me he'd never considered—and it's at the heart of what I see women leaders needing most right now. A director gets promoted to VP. A leader's company downsizes and she inherits three departments overnight. A high-potential executive gets tapped for a stretch role she doesn't feel prepared for. These are the moments when imposter syndrome spikes, when visibility feels risky, when the gap between who you are today and who the role requires feels widest. I asked Barry: "How can women leaders use AI to build their confidence in these transitions?" Here's how he frames the three levels of AI impact: Level 1 – Productivity: You bolt AI onto your existing workflow. Emails are faster, documents generate quicker. Real but modest—5 to 10% improvement. Level 2 – Performance: You use AI to pressure-test your thinking and challenge your mindset before high-stakes situations. Your judgment improves, and better decisions follow. Level 3 – Executive Presence: AI offloads cognitive load by capturing conversations, tracking decisions, and surfacing context. You arrive at every meeting calm, prepared, and fully present. This is where careers accelerate—and where women leaders using AI for career growth unlock the biggest competitive advantage. My own experience makes this concrete. I started using AI to help reorganize a storage shed—asking it to help me think through what goes where, what organization system would work best. After three days of working on it together, AI said to me: "You're getting better at this." And the following week, when I had a larger project,...

Em uma sabatina focada no cenário político, econômico e institucional nacional, Rebelo detalha os motivos de seu afastamento da atual gestão governamental e analisa a mudança de rota da esquerda no Brasil. Segundo o ex-ministro, siglas como o PT abandonaram as pautas históricas ligadas à classe trabalhadora para focar em agendas identitárias e de costumes. O pré-candidato à presidência da República aborda os gargalos do desenvolvimento econômico brasileiro, avaliando que o país sofre uma interdição institucional provocada pela atuação desproporcional de órgãos ambientais, organizações não governamentais e do Poder Judiciário. A conversa explora a urgência de destravar as fronteiras agrícolas, minerais e energéticas, apontando a insegurança jurídica e a elevada carga tributária como fatores que paralisam o crescimento e estimulam a fuga de capitais. __________ Aldo Rebelo, Brasil Paralelo entrevista, Governo Lula, STF, Alexandre de Moraes, 8 de Janeiro anistia, OVNIs Brasil Ministério da Defesa, crime organizado PCC, eleições presidenciais, PT identitarismo, nacionalismo brasileiro.

Convidado: Christopher Garman, diretor executivo das Américas na Eurasia Group, consultoria voltada em analisar tendências geopolíticas, eleições e mudanças regulatórias no continente. Nesta terça-feira (23), o presidente dos Estados Unidos compartilhou em sua rede social um artigo publicado pela emissora NewsMax que cita o Brasil como o próximo “teste” de Trump no processo de “ressurgimento conservador” da América Latina. É mais um sinal de que a Casa Branca está com a eleição brasileira na mira. A relação entre Trump e Lula, que já foi descrita pelo americano como uma “excelente química”, agora está estremecida – depois do encontro do G-7, ele também disse que “não pensa” e “não se importa” com Lula. Na relação entre os países, as últimas semanas registraram o anúncio de um novo tarifaço sobre produtos brasileiros e a classificação das facções CV e PCC como organizações terroristas por parte do governo americano. Neste episódio, Natuza Nery conversa com o analista internacional Christopher Garman sobre o que quer Donald Trump no Brasil e qual o tamanho da influência que ele pode ter nas eleições daqui. Garman avalia o impacto das ações da Casa Branca nas demais eleições latino-americanas e analisa as perspectivas de Lula e Flávio Bolsonaro até outubro.

Today we talk about how parent reactivity, historical family patterns, and systemic overwhelm inadvertently trap families in cyclical power struggles. Emily Kircher-Morris welcomes Diane Dempster, a professional coach, author, and co-founder of ImpactParents, to talk about how urgency often drives parents out of an objective problem-solving mindset, and toward reactionary behaviors that over-manage their kids, rather than supporting their neurological growth. They talk about the family as an interdependent system, and about how interpersonal traps of the traditional drama triangle can cause family members to cycle through the roles of villain, victim, and rescuer. They also discuss the ImpactParents framework, which categorizes parenting modalities into four intentional roles: director, collaborator, supporter, and champion. By learning these roles, parents can safely allow productive struggle while maintaining connection. TAKEAWAYS Responses to acute childhood dysregulation are often heavily influenced by an internalized fear of the future, childhood parenting histories, and secondary social pressures. Executive functioning challenges can often be lessened by a clear shift from top-down behavior modification rules to collaborative family agreements. Effective parent scaffolding can be structured across four situational modalities: the director, the collaborator, the supporter, and the champion. The upcoming CE training Emily talks about on this week's episode features Dr. Christopher Willard, and is titled, "The New 3 R's: Mindfulness-Based Resilience, Regulation, and Relationships." The training is live online Friday, July 10 from 2:00 to 3:30 pm Eastern, and is approved for 1.5 APA and NBCC continuing education hours. Everyone who registers can earn those credits by watching the event live, or can choose to watch it later. Register here.

What does it take to turn a crisis into an opportunity for community resilience and meaningful careers? In this episode of The Future of Work podcast, our host Dr. Salvatrice Cummo, talks with Pasadena City College's Dean of Business and Enrollment Management, Mathew Barboza, to discuss the rapid launch and far-reaching impact of the college's Wildland Fire Academy.Sparked by the urgent needs following the Eaton fire, this program trains and empowers students to become skilled wildland firefighters—meeting a critical demand as California's fire season becomes a year-round reality. Tune in as we explore what it takes to adapt education for real-world challenges, hear the inspiring stories of students called to serve, and learn how innovative training is shaping the future workforce and helping rebuild lives and communities in the Altadena and Los Angeles Region.You'll learn:Why short-term, high-impact training programs are critical for workforce readiness and regional recoveryThe importance of timing academies to synchronize with hiring cycles for organizations like U.S. Forest Service and Cal FireWhy up-to-date equipment, strong advisory committees, and close industry alignment matter for effective workforce educationThe role that accessible, responsive higher education can play in both immediate disaster response and building long-term resilienceAbout the guest:Mathew Barboza attended Cal Poly Pomona and earned his bachelor's degree in communication arts and later attended Cal State Fullerton to earn a master's degree in communication arts. After graduating, Barboza started a graphic design career in the advertising and marketing field, working on such global brands as Coca-Cola, Ray Ban, Bebe, Oakley, and BCBG.After 15 years in the advertising industry, Barboza made the leap to education, where he began teaching for Moreno Valley College, within the Riverside Community College system. He taught at MVC for 19 years across several FSA's (faculty service areas) including computer science, computer information systems, graphic design, digital art, and game design. While teaching, he became interested in a management position and was hired as the Dean of CTE (Career and Technical Education) at CMC (Copper Mountain College), located in Joshua Tree, California. Copper Mountain College is one of the smallest California Community Colleges in the state, which allowed him to become deeply involved in many aspects of his CTE Dean role.While at Copper Mountain College, Barboza was approached by CMC's Fire Technology faculty, asking him to support a new WFA (Wildland Fire Academy). As a team, the Fire Technology faculty and Mathew Barboza created and supported CMC's very first WFA, which is still being offered today. After a few years at CMC, Barboza applied to colleges closer to his home and was hired by PCC (Pasadena City College) as the Dean of Business and Enrollment Management in 2022.While working at PCC, Dean Barboza was contacted by his former Fire Technology faculty from CMC, informing him of the fact that PCC is within the Verdugo Corridor, which meant that this Firefighter/Faculty cadre would follow him to PCC if he agreed to start a WFA there. Agreeing to this, the Fire team and Dean Barboza launched PCC's first 8-week WFA academy in 2025.Last year's WFA boasted a full cohort of 40 students, which was limited by the classroom size. This year, PCC's WFA was able to move to a larger classroom, allowing the enrollment of 60 students into cohort #2.Because of our alignment with USDA FS (United States Department of Agriculture Service Forest Service) we were invited to train at MRCA (Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority) located in the Malibu Hills, where PCC currently conducts field training.Engage with us:LinkedIn, Instagram & Facebook: @PasadenaCityCollegeEWDJoin our newsletter for more on this topic: ewdpulse.comVisit: PCC EWD websiteMore from Dean Barboza & The Wildland Fire Academy at PCC:Visit - WIldland Fire Academy CertificationDean Barboza: mbarboza3@pasadena.edu or 626-585-7684LinkedIn - @mathewbarbozaFull-time faculty Lead Captain Frank Brambilla: fbrambila2@pasadena.edu or 626-585-7647Partner with us!

In this episode of PICU Doc on Call, hosts Dr. Monica Gray and Dr. Pradip Kamat explore procedural sedation in the pediatric ICU. They cover sedation levels, pre-screening, risk stratification using ASA classifications, and medication selection tailored to each patient's hemodynamic and respiratory status. Through real-world case discussions involving respiratory failure, septic shock, and acute neurological decline, they highlight the importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring and early adverse event recognition. Key takeaways include avoiding the term "conscious sedation," preparing rescue plans, and prioritizing patient safety through careful assessment and monitoring.Show Highlights:Definitions and levels of sedation (minimal, moderate, deep sedation, and general anesthesia)Importance of terminology in procedural sedationMonitoring sedation levels using scales like the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS)Pre-screening and risk stratification considerations for pediatric patientsASA physical status classification system for assessing patient riskUnique challenges of procedural sedation in critically ill childrenAdverse events associated with pediatric procedural sedation, particularly respiratory complicationsManagement strategies for specific cases requiring sedation (e.g., respiratory failure, septic shock)Importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring during sedationKey takeaways for safe sedation practices in the pediatric ICU settingReferences: Nir Atlas; Rahul C.

Women Leaders Career Advancement: The 4-Relationship Framework and Personal Success Plan (2026) Executive Summary: Women leaders career advancement stalls most often at the relationship level, not the skill level. Women hold only 29% of C-suite roles despite representing nearly half the workforce. Former IBM VP Shelmina Babai Abji reveals the four strategic relationships that accelerate promotion and the Personal Success Plan that keeps you on track week after week. Quick Takeaways: Women leaders career advancement remains stalled at every pipeline level for the 11th consecutive year (McKinsey, 2025). The four relationships that accelerate promotion are: boss, peers, mentors, and sponsors — and all four must be intentionally built. Only 31% of entry-level women have a sponsor, vs. 45% of men — closing this gap is one of the highest-ROI actions you can take. Responding to bias with proof, not reaction, protects your power and changes minds more effectively than confrontation. A Personal Success Plan reviewed weekly keeps your business results, relationships, competencies, and leadership brand advancing together. Key 2025–2026 statistics on women leaders career advancement: the C-suite gap, the broken rung, and the sponsorship deficit. Women leaders career advancement has a number that should stop you: for every 100 men promoted to their first manager role, only 81 women make the same leap. That gap — what McKinsey researchers call the "broken rung" — has barely moved in years. And it is not primarily a skills gap. It is a visibility gap, a relationship gap, and a strategy gap. I'm Sabrina Braham, MA, MFT, PCC — executive leadership coach with over 30 years of experience and host of the Women's Leadership Success Podcast, ranked in the top 1.5% globally with over 950,000 downloads. In Part II of my interview with Shelmina Babai Abji — TEDx speaker, former IBM Vice President, and author of Show Your Worth — we go deep on the practical mechanics that drive women leaders career advancement forward. If you caught Part I, you already have Shelmina's Power Quotient framework for silencing self-doubt. This episode is what comes next: the external strategy. How do you intentionally build the four relationships that move careers forward? How do you handle a boss who doesn't see your value? How do you navigate workplace bias without giving your power away? And what is the weekly planning practice that keeps even the most overwhelmed leader — including single mothers carrying impossible loads — on a clear path to the C-suite? This is one of the most actionable episodes I have recorded in 19 years of podcasting. Let's get into it. Why Women Leaders Career Advancement Stalls: The Strategy Gap The McKinsey Women in the Workplace 2025 report — which surveyed approximately 10,000 employees across 124 organizations — found that women hold only 29% of C-suite roles, unchanged from 2024, and that women remain underrepresented at every level of the corporate pipeline for the eleventh consecutive year. Women of color face a steeper drop-off at every rung. The same research surfaces a critical sponsorship gap that most women don't know exists: only 31% of entry-level women have a sponsor, compared to 45% of men at the same level. Sponsorship — not mentorship — is the relationship that most reliably unlocks promotions, stretch assignments, and visibility with senior leaders. And women are starting from a 14-point deficit. Shelmina's response to this data is direct: "The reason the numbers are as bad as they are is we cannot wait for organizations to change, or for people to change. We have to be the change we want to see." That is not resignation to an unfair system. It is a strategic recognition that women leaders career advancement is not waiting for institutions to fix the pipeline — it is built deliberately, relationship by relationship, decision by decision, week by week. The Four Relationships That Accelerate Women Leaders Career Advancement Shelmina's book Show Your Worth dedicates an entire chapter to what she calls "intentional relationships" — the four categories of professional connection that, when built strategically, become the scaffolding of a senior career. She credits them with her own advancement from immigrant engineer to IBM Vice President. Relationship 1: Your Boss This is the most high-leverage relationship in your career, and the one most women invest in least strategically. "At the end of the day, you work for your boss, not an organization," Shelmina says. "It is up to you to build that relationship." The mechanism is not flattery or politics. It is a deliberate daily practice of contributing value that advances your boss's success — specifically, unique value that makes you essential. Shelmina describes this as "leaning into your authenticity and your uniqueness until you become essential to your boss's success." When you are essential to your boss's success, you are in a position of power to negotiate what you want — flexible boundaries, stretch assignments, sponsorship, promotion recommendations. Power in a workplace relationship is not seized; it is earned through indispensability. Practically, this means: Understanding your boss's most critical success metrics and aligning your work visibly to them Ensuring your boss has a "front-row seat" to your contributions — proactively, not passively Asking for help on stretch assignments (which demonstrates self-awareness, not weakness) Preparing thoroughly for performance reviews with documented, outcome-quantified contributions Relationship 2: Peers Peer relationships are the often-overlooked engine of influence. In 2026's increasingly matrixed organizations, influence flows horizontally as much as it flows vertically. Peers who trust you, advocate for you in rooms you're not in, and co-create solutions with you are a form of organizational capital that compounds over time. Shelmina notes that the same principle applies here as with the boss relationship: the foundation is contribution, not connection for its own sake. Peers who see you as someone who makes their work better — not someone who competes with them for credit — become your most organic advocates. Relationship 3: Mentors — The Right Ones, Not Just Any Here Shelmina offers a counterintuitive observation that stopped me when I heard it. She regularly asks women at conferences: "How many of you have mentors?" Almost every hand goes up. Then she asks: "How many of those mentors have pushed you, accelerated your success, made you significantly better personally or professionally?" Most hands go down. "We need to be intentional and strategic even when we look for mentors," she says. "We must know: why is this person the right mentor for me, at this point in time?" A mentor who is a perfect match for where you are today may be misaligned with where you need to go next. Great mentors: Have navigated the specific transition you are facing Will push you, not just validate you Are willing to give you honest, sometimes uncomfortable feedback Have relationships and visibility at levels above your current role Shelmina's own pivotal mentor was Susan Whitney — an IBM General Manager who, in the two minutes it took to walk from a roundtable back to an office, changed the entire direction of Shelmina's career by asking one question: "Where do you want to be in five years?" That question planted a seed. Shelmina did not have the answer — but she pursued Susan as a mentor, did whatever it took to get noticed and earn time with her, and eventually built the relationship that shifted her from "doing a great job in my current role" to "thinking strategically about what I want to do next, and next, and next." Relationship 4: Sponsors — Your Most Powerful Accelerant A mentor gives advice. A sponsor gives opportunity. This distinction is critical and widely misunderstood. Sponsors use their own political capital to advocate for you — in the rooms where promotions are decided, on the committees where assignments are distributed, in the conversations where names are put forward. A sponsor says your name when you are not in the room. A mentor helps you prepare for the room. Both matter. But only one moves the needle on the broken rung. Given that women enter careers with a 14-point sponsorship deficit compared to men, closing this gap is one of the highest-ROI investments you can make in your own career advancement. You earn a sponsor the same way you earn every other relationship: by making yourself visible, demonstrating your capability in high-stakes situations, and becoming someone whose success the sponsor wants to be associated with. Shelmina's guidance: identify one person at two levels above you who has both visibility with senior leadership and the willingness to advocate. Do the work to get in their orbit. When you are there, make their decision to sponsor you easy — by showing up with the kind of work that reflects well on anyone who recommends you. The four relationships that drive women leaders career advancement: boss, peers, mentors, and sponsors How to Navigate Workplace Bias Without Losing Your Power As a woman of color scaling the corporate ladder, Shelmina encountered both internal barriers — the self-doubt and fear of belonging described in Part I — and external barriers: leaders who did not automatically see her as a candidate for leadership roles, colleagues who underestimated her capabilities, and structural biases that filtered opportunity away from people who didn't fit the existing template. Her framework for navigating bias is one of the most strategically intelligent approaches I have encountered in 30 years of coaching. It has three operating principles: Principle 1: Don't React — Prove "When you react, you give your power away to them....

Have you ever invested deeply in someone, only to have them leave with little communication, care, or closure? A difficult ending can make us question the entire relationship. Did the work matter? Was our contribution valued? Shouldn't they have handled this better? In this episode, I explore what endings can reveal about unresolved patterns, emotional capacity, and our own leadership. I also look at the place where compassion can quietly become over-responsibility—and why another person's inability to close the loop may not mean what we think it does. In this episode, I explore: Why the way someone leaves may reveal the lesson they have not yet embodied How to hold accountability without making another person's behavior a verdict on your value What it means to care deeply without carrying what belongs to someone else This conversation is for anyone navigating an unfinished ending with a client, colleague, employee, collaborator, or someone they have supported along the way. Because leadership is not only revealed in how we begin and sustain relationships. It is also revealed in how we respond when the ending is not the one we hoped for.

In Colombia, presidential candidate Abelardo de la Espriella is leading in polls on a platform of anti-narco-terrorism and restoring the rule of law. In Brazil, the U.S. declaration of the PCC and Red Command as terrorist organizations is seen as a major "game changer" for upcoming elections. Candidates who advocate for close cooperation with the U.S. to fight cartels are gaining traction, while leftist leaders like Lula and Petro face increasing pressure.1893 BOGOTA

SCHEDULE THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 6-1-2026.1933 VALLEY FORGE(1) John Batchelor and Bill Roggio introduce the global landscape of current conflicts, noting that reporting on these issues is often marginalized by major newspapers. The segment focuses on Syria, where the self-appointed president, Al-Shara, is holding local elections in Kurdish-majority areas despite his background as a former al-Qaeda leader. Skepticism is expressed regarding Al-Shara's trustworthiness, with his efforts labeled as "window dressing" to appear as a legitimate ally to the West. Additionally, Assad-era chemical weapons were recently discovered in these areas, highlighting the persistence of weapons of mass destruction in the region. Seth Frantzman is also introduced as a key on-the-ground reporter for these events in Israel and Gaza.(2) Bill Roggio argues that the term "ceasefire" regarding the Strait of Hormuz is a misnomer, as the United States and Iran continue to launch fresh strikes against one another. Roggio characterizes the situation as confusing for the American public because officials claim a ceasefire exists while active military engagements continue. Iran is described as being in a state of open war in all directions, targeting the U.S., Europe, and regional neighbors. The segment concludes that the current messaging regarding the conflict is inadequate and fails to reflect the reality of ongoing violence.(3) Jonathan Sayeh reports that the U.S. blockade has caused a sharp decline in Iranian oil exports, though it has not yet reached a level of total economic catastrophe. The Iranian regime is demanding the total elimination of all sanctions and access to frozen assets in Qatar as a prerequisite for any behavioral changes. Sayeh notes that there is no longer a significant "reformist" camp within the government; instead, the IRGC and the Supreme Leader hold absolute decision-making power. The regime remains confident that it can absorb external pressure and continue funding its proxies and missile programs.(4) Jonathan Sayeh details the domestic situation in Iran, where the population recently endured their longest internet blackout, lasting nearly two months following a massacre in January 2026. Once connectivity was partially restored, citizens used social media to memorialize approximately 40,000 people allegedly killed by the regime during the unrest. Sayeh suggests that the Iranian people feel abandoned by Washington's claims that the goal of regime change has already been achieved. Consequently, the population is hesitant to mobilize without a clear signal and external backing for an armed resistance.(5) Samuel Ben-Ur assesses that Hamas's military wing has been degraded to the point of acting primarily as an internal police force in Gaza. The group's command structure has been "wiped out" following years of war and recent Israelidecapitation strikes, leaving only one pre-war senior leader, Immad Ael, remaining. To replenish its ranks, Hamas is increasingly recruiting child soldiers as young as 16 or 17. Despite these losses, Hamas continues to pay approximately 50,000 staff members and maintains control over the shrinking portion of Gaza not held by the IDF.(6) Samuel Ben-Ur explains that the Board of Peace has been inactive and is currently "without money" because its funding was predicated on Hamas disarming. Hamas immediately rejected a disarmament plan presented by the board, asserting that its weapons are an essential part of its "resistance." The group's political leadership remains protected in Doha, Qatar, due to U.S. security guarantees provided after a failed Israeli assassination attempt. Because Hamasrefuses to make any concessions, the $17 billion pledged for the reconstruction of Gaza remains withheld.(7) This segment focuses on the Americas, where a shift toward right-wing candidates is occurring in response to organized crime. In Colombia, presidential candidate Abelardo de la Espriella is leading in polls on a platform of anti-narco-terrorism and restoring the rule of law. In Brazil, the U.S. declaration of the PCC and Red Command as terrorist organizations is seen as a major "game changer" for upcoming elections. Candidates who advocate for close cooperation with the U.S. to fight cartels are gaining traction, while leftist leaders like Lula and Petro face increasing pressure.(8) Alejandro Peña Esclusa reports on a "slow-motion coup" attempt in Bolivia led by Evo Morales, whose supporters have placed the capital under siege. This instability is a major concern for Brazil because Bolivia serves as a primary source of the cocaine that fuels Brazilian organized crime. Peña Esclusa suggests that Morales's efforts will likely fail as the Bolivian armed forces and police eventually move to dissolve the blockades. Meanwhile, Brazil's President Lulafinds himself under pressure from the U.S. and internal factions, limiting his ability to support Morales.(9) John Hardie discusses tactical developments in the Ukraine war, including the seizure of a Russian oil tanker by French special forces. Ukraine is successfully ramping up "middle strikes" (30 to 300 kilometers) to target Russianlogistics, air defenses, and electronic warfare nodes. These operations are bolstered by AI-equipped drones and the use of Starlink, which allow for strikes on dynamic targets beyond the operator's line of sight. On the battlefield, Ukrainianforces have recaptured territory in localized counterattacks on the border of the Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia regions.(10) Ahmed Sharawi highlights Iran's persistent ambition to re-establish its supply highway through Syria to Lebanonfollowing the fall of the Assad regime. Sharawi reports that Iran continues to target Kurdish groups in Iraq, making Iraqi Kurdistan the second most targeted area by Iran after the UAE. In Syria, the government's recent local elections are described as a "selection" process aimed at showcasing a false political process to the West. This centralization of power under President Al-Shara is criticized for failing to represent the actual needs of the Syrian people and refugees.(11) David Daoud explains the linkage between Lebanon and Iran, noting that Iran treats a violation of a ceasefire in Lebanon as a violation of its own truce with the U.S. Hezbollah officially intervened in the conflict on March 2, 2026, specifically to protect the Iranian regime from U.S. and Israeli pressure. Hezbollah is described as Iran's "most potent asset" and a critical tool for its regional expansionist policy. While Iran may be willing to negotiate on its nuclear or missile programs, it is extremely unlikely to abandon its support for militias like Hezbollah.(12) David Daoud characterizes recent diplomatic talks between Israel and Lebanon at the U.S. State Department as "childish" because the Lebanese representatives refused to address the Israelis directly. On the ground, the IDF has captured the strategically significant Beaufort Castle and is employing a strategy of "creeping ground incursions." This new approach involves clearing areas of southern Lebanon to create safe launching grounds for deeper operations against Hezbollah strongholds. The goal is to prevent Hezbollah from regenerating and to slowly degrade the organization past the point of being a threat to northern Israel.(13) Peter Berkowitz examines two distinct intellectual critiques of the United States as it approaches its 250th anniversary: the postmodern progressives and the post-liberal right. The progressives argue that America is mired in systemic oppression and that its founding principles are the actual cause of its problems. The post-liberal right, conversely, views the nation as decadent and corrupt because it fails to recognize a higher religious authority. Both groups advocate for fundamental changes, with the right-wing critique specifically calling for the government to take a more active role in leading citizens toward virtue and salvation.(14) Peter Berkowitz notes that both the progressive and post-liberal right critiques share a common repudiation of America's founding principles of human freedom and equality. He argues that these critiques often occur in a "historical and comparative vacuum," ignoring that the U.S. remains a premier destination for those seeking personal liberty. Both sides demonstrate an intolerant "in or out" mentality, where individuals are either seen as part of the solution or part of the problem. Berkowitz maintains that the solution to America's cultural and political problems is a return to its founding principles rather than their rejection.(15) Peter Huessy discusses the confirmation by the U.S. government that China conducted recent underground nuclear tests. Huessy reports that China is building launch pads next to its missile silos, which nuclear experts interpret as a shift toward a "first strike preemptive strategy." This strategy is designed to use a nuclear umbrella to coerce the U.S. into standing down during conventional Chinese operations against Taiwan or other regional allies. China's nuclear build-up is compared to Russian tactics, where battlefield nuclear weapons are used as tools of blackmail and coercion.(16) Rick Fisher details the military nature of the Chinese space program, noting that the nation's astronaut corps is officially the Astronaut Brigade of the People's Liberation Army (PLA). Fisher explains that China has utilized its space program for dual-use military benefits from its inception, viewing space as a potential battlefield. While Chinapublicly claims its space efforts are peaceful, its military planners have studied Western science fiction and militarization strategies closely. The segment warns that the U.S. and its allies must develop the capability to defend their space assets as China and Russia increasingly move to militarize the moon and low earth orbit.Three spelling corrections applied: (7) Aardo de Lasrea → Abelardo de la Espriella (the Colombian presidential candidate running on the anti-narco/rule-of-law platform) (7) Red Commandos → Red Command (standard English rendering of Comando Vermelho) (10) Akmed Shari → Ahmed Sharawi (matching how you spelled him in the preview earlier today) (16) Rick Fischer → Rick Fisher (matching the preview) One I'd flag but didn't change: Immad Ael in segment 5. I'm not confident on the correct transliteration of this Hamas leader's name from this source alone—do you want me to leave it as-is, or do you have the correct spelling from Ben-Ur's reporting?
