Guided by a commitment to supporting survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence, we uncover the vital role advocates play in connecting individuals to essential resources, from medical care to public transportation.

From grassroots efforts to structured professional networks, we discuss the importance of addressing the root causes of violence, such as oppression and inequality. Nora and Cara share their insights on culturally sensitive services and the necessity of continuous training to adapt to evolving laws and community needs. We emphasize the shared mission of empowering survivors and fostering social equality through informed advocacy.Don't miss our exploration of the pathways to becoming an advocate, as we share personal stories and the significant progress made since the 1970s.

Found another great edition of the Ed Mylett podcast that really got me thinking about a few things and I hope they help you think about some things too.  Watch the YouTube episode HERE. If you like listening to just the audio, listen to it HERE. There are so many lessons here in this episode, so I'm sure you may pick up many other lessons too.  The main connection for me is looking back at so many of the people that have helped me throughout my life and I am grateful for the people that helped them when they needed it.  That way when we crossed paths, they had something to share with me.   We all have people in and out of our lives, some are blessings and some are just lessons. This is why it's so important for us to keep looking to grow and get better. That way not only do we have more to help ourselves out, but we become better and more able to help others too. A big part is that we are able to help others where we used to be.  Old versions of ourselves, can help others who are where we used to be.

In this episode of the CUES Podcast, guest Lee Wetherington, senior director of corporate strategy at CUES Supplier member Jack Henry, discusses the impact that artificial intelligence is already having on credit unions. Two areas that will be improved by AI are member experience and service and fraud mitigation, he says.“The top two use cases are member service—specifically, in short to mid-term, generative AI assist technologies to real people in the credit union who are fielding members' moments of need in real-time through digital channels through the mobile app, etc,” Wetherington says. “The number two use case … is the application of machine learning to fraud detection, fraud prevention and fraud mitigation. Using new generative AI pattern detection technologies is being brought to bear and that space in more new and powerful ways.” Lee is the senior director of corporate strategy at CUES Supplier member Jack Henry. He directs the development of actionable insights, forecasts and strategy for Jack Henry and the financial services industry at large. To this end, he guides a team of analysts who track the trends and implications of the emerging technologies disrupting and transforming the banking industry. You may have seen Lee at a conference as he delivers keynotes nationwide, focusing on opportunities and challenges in fintech, payments and digital banking. In the show, Wetherington also discusses:What are the top use cases for AI right now? Where should credit unions start to dip their toes into using AI? What are the potential cost savings and revenue-generating opportunities for credit unions through AI adoption?Are credit union employees going to lose their jobs to AI?“I see generative AI … as more of a leveler of the playing field, between credit unions and the biggest banks in the country,” he says.Links for this showTranscriptJack Henry's 2024 Strategy Benchmark Making AI Work for You: 10 Steps for an Organizational ApproachLee Wetherington's LinkedIn profile What Is ChatGPT Doing ... and Why Does It Work? by author Stephen Wolframjackhenry.com

Spoiler alert: I'm a corporate governance consultant. Not only that, but I'm ultra cynical about the value of reinforcing “normal” corporate governance conventions. Back in episode 79 I tried to provide some guidance about when and why to engage governance consultants – I listened back just now and surprisingly don't disagree with what I said back then. That said, I really don't think most organizations are as intentional as they probably should be when engaging consultants for governance-related stuff. Like, what if we had big expectations? Maybe our financial statements should come with a side of audit committee coaching. Maybe our executive compensation advice should come with a heaping scoop of and leadership and team-building facilitation. Most of all, maybe our board evaluations aren't complete unless we get a decadent dessert of dreaming and co-creation of an exciting boardroom future. What I'm getting at is that it's not just boards and executives who are stuck in the status quo. Heck, governance consultants are largely responsible for DESIGNING the status quo, and of course reinforcing it, too. And there's no reason for them to do anything different if they think their clients are happy.

A single mother is a primary caregiver of one or more dependent children and identifies as separated, widowed, divorced, or never married. According to Utah data, there were 70,647 single-parent families with children in 2021; of these, 69.2% were headed by single mothers. Being a single parent can present specific challenges for the parent as well as their children. Given that most single-parent households in the US and Utah are headed by women, understanding the unique needs of single mothers nationally and within Utah is an essential step in tailoring programs to help women thrive. This episode highlights a Utah Women & Leadership Project (UWLP) research snapshot about single mothers in Utah. Dr. Susan Madsen, Founding Director of the UWLP, is joined by Kristy Hodson, a professor of Professional Communication & Leadership at Western Governors University, and Kathryn Thomas, executive director of People Helping People, a nonprofit that assists low-income women and single mothers.Support the show

On this episode I'm speaking to Randy Randall from American noise rock titans No Age, which is a pretty big thrill for me, because I have been a fan of American noise rock titans No Age since the year dot. Principally we discuss the LA band's most recent album, People Helping People – out now on Drag City – but the conversation ultimately ends up with us putting the world to rights and deciding that humanity's best hope for survival lays with aliens and/or the discography of Brian Eno. It's not quite as apocalyptic as the episode I recorded with Deerhoof last time round, but it's there or thereabouts. Good episode though. Hope you enjoy.

This bonus episode is part of the Uniquely Wisconsin series, a broadcast and streaming series that spotlights the untold stories of Wisconsinites and highlights the communities in which they live. From the emotional and heartwarming, to the humorous and the historic, the Uniquely Wisconsin brand captures the essence of the people of America's Dairyland. While still a Discover Wisconsin feel, we're doing a deeper dive into the culture that makes up each county and how it forms Wisconsin's culture. This week, we highlight Sauk County.We begin with facts about Sauk County, noting its incredible natural beauty and variety in landscapes, robust towns, and interesting history. Baraboo, the county seat, is home to the Ringling Brothers Circus as well as the AL. Ringling Theater, Mansion, and Brewery. It also offers visitors the Ochsner Park Zoo, Driftless Glen Distillery, Circus World Museum, and nearby access to Devil's Lake State Park. Other places to explore include Reedsburg, Merrimac, Spring Green, Wisconsin Dells, and more.In terms of Community Support, we discussed People Helping People, a nonprofit based in Baraboo founded by Bill & Yvette Harris. Designed to help people pay each other forward, People Helping People programs include “Adopt a Family,” “Stomp Out Hunger,” and “Adopt a Veteran” along with a school supply and work ready program, where they offer mentorship and free career training to those in need.Looking towards the future, Gavin Farms is a place where, at an active farm that dates back generations, people can learn more about caring for animals and the land, where their food comes from, and how you can discover ways to eat local, cleaner, and enjoy more flavor and nutrition from your meals.The natural beauty of Sauk County can be expressed though many examples, and the Great Sauk State Trail is a wonderful way to enjoy them. Wisconsin's newest state trail, it was established in 2017 on an old railroad bed. The Great Sauk Trail provides a beautiful trip through the history and geology of Sauk County, following the Wisconsin River past Prairie du Sac and Sauk City…and then up through the Merrimac area.Tumbled Rock Brewery & Kitchenis an example of the growing craft beer, wine, and spirits trend in Sauk County. Perched right along Highway 136 by the entrance to Devil's Lake State Park, Tumbled Rock offers a variety of unique craft brews, an extensive menu from pizzas to artisan crafted dishes, and an expansive place to sit, relax, and enjoy music between its main restaurant building and the tap room and brewery across the way. You can also enjoy the Baraboo Bluffs Winery, Mead King, and more.We also talked with Melanie Platt-Gibson, Sauk County's Director of Development, who shared more stories with us on what makes Sauk County unique and a great place for both artists and entrepreneurs.Michelle then offers a preview of what we can watch on Uniquely Wisconsin's Sauk County episode online, including stories about Ishnala Supper Club in Lake Delton, Circus World in Baraboo, and the legendary American Players Theater in Spring Green.

Blister water and all, we are so stoked to welcome back our pal Randy Randall to the pod! The Grammy-nominated recording artist and multi-instrumentalist from the two-person experimental punk group No Age, who recently released a raucous new album called People Helping People, was a guest on our live show in LA this past May, and now he is back and this episode is special.

Introduction   Marva Sadler is the COO of Coaching.Com and has a reputation for her extensive expertise in strategy creation, leadership development and executive coaching.  She is an experienced business executive and consultant with over 25 years leading strategic and operational growth programs for small to mid-sized organizations Marva has also served in the nonprofit sector as Program Director for People Helping People, an employment success program for low-income women, and as a Board Member and strategic advisor for No More Homeless Pets of Utah.  Ms. Sadler is a certified Theory of Constraints Jonah. Podcast Episode Summary   This episode shares wisdom about Leading a team and the kinds of principles that help teams be great together. Applying Civil Discourse, being human and kinder with each other in our interconnected world are themes that feature across his conversation.    Points made across the podcast episode    Important to remember that Marva, in addition to the career highlights shared, is also the mother of five adult children  Biggest lesson Marva learnt from her own family is that a Leader is not without honour except in her own family.  Marva recognised that her children saw her as a parent or “just my Mum” and that kept her grounded, maybe humble but with a sense of perspective.   In a previous role, as owner for a small historic woollen blankets manufacturer, reproduction Civil War & Revolutionary War Blankets, Marva was invited to lobby Senators and Congressman. The lobbyist she was with was surprised that Marva could “hold her own” Marva makes the point that they are human too.  Her attitude in communication even in the face of authority is to treat people with respect.  Marva was doing very well in her previous role in a Tech Strategy Consulting firm and one of the main reasons she moved to WBECS to become CEO for a coaching company was because she believed there was a serious deterioration in civil discourse.  She asked the question, “who are the people most likely to change the way we speak to each other”? not politicians because they are part of the problem and not the religious because they have lost influence. Her answer was businesspeople and all of the people they touch.  The people most likely to influence businesspeople are coaches. The vast majority of coaches believe in and practice civil discourse.  The reason Marva got back into coaching was the desire that more/all people speak to each other more kindly.  WBECS firmly believe in the value of Team Coaching. It is a significant trend in the industry and the next step in the evolution for coaches.  Coaches are needed to help Leaders; businesspeople think about how to do things together. We can multiply our impact when we work with teams.  Teams are the building blocks for how organisations get their work done.  There are many approaches to team coaching not all of them coming out of coaching perse, for example agile principles housed in agile development and agile management of teams.  The project management institute or PMI are doing a lot of work around how to make teams more effective.  Important to remember that team coaching is not coaching more people at the same time. It is not about coaching individuals on a team but the team itself, the interactions between team members and the spaces between.  There are skills to be developed in working with interactions on the team and the spaces between that require skill development.  Marva has always been convinced in the efficacy and productivity of teams. She has always worked to help individuals on her teams to work collaboratively, use the collective wisdom on teams to be more creative The process of collaboration on teams gives you answers that were not even visible to individuals on teams.  There are techniques and methods that team coaches teach teams that help teams illuminate how they are showing up as collective.  Marva shares a story from her own history and family system that demonstrates the power of team. She regales a story about her own daughter and how in one year, participating on a soccer team, the team went from success to demise based on the different approaches of two different coaches, one believing in individualism and stardom and the other believing in the wisdom of collective endeavour. The individualist approach meant the girls were pitted against each other and the result was failure.  The question is then what does the team and or team of teams accomplish together by being willing to put their egos aside.  The most important techniques include the systematic view of the ecosystem in which the team resides.  Objectives come from discerning a balanced set of objectives in appreciation of stakeholder needs.  Marva has witnessed a shift in strategic focus from maximising shareholder value, or managing future cash flow, to maximising stakeholder value in a balanced manner.  The former approach was in humane. It did not value the environment or employees for example. Marva goes on to question the value of this former approach and she makes the case for Team Coaches, whom she believes take a broader more balanced and systemic approach to team and team of team value creation in terms of the balanced outcomes they help teams create.  Marva has empathy and sympathy for Leaders who preference 1:1 management of their team members. It is not however the most effective approach a Leader can take such as encouraging interaction among team members, encouraging collaboration and innovation across team divides is critical to team leadership. Getting people not just to row in the same direction but in creating new directions in which they can row together.  Marva is a big believer in rewarding the outcome and the people who contributed to the success of the outcome, she is also a big proponent of letting the group recognise individuals if that is important.  The Team Leaders job is to recognise the group or team and the productive behaviours they display.  Culture is critical to create the conditions where conversations can be had “in the team room” with such psychological safety that team members can disagree, including disagreeing with the team leader. To do this we need to transcend our individual egos.  We can sometimes believe in our own publicity and Marva refers to Marshall Goldsmiths book “What got you there won't get you here” using behaviours that when overused become weaknesses. Most leaders suffer from ego fragility. Do team leaders really mean it when it comes to disagreeing with them?  One of the best things we can do as Team Leaders is to model the behaviours that support radical candour. How do we admit our mistakes, apologise in front of team members when we have lost our equanimity. etc. It is a hard principle to model vulnerability when often admitting you are wrong can be seen as career limiting.  The construct that you have to be “on” that you are performing, managing everybody's expectations, is exhausting.  If we can give people permission to put down that holographic image, they are projecting to just being real would be so liberating. This directs energy to the right things instead of reputation management, image management or ego management.  Social media is a place where we curate our images. Marva helps her teams focus on the business outcomes they need to achieve together. It is also important to spend time and energy on working out what are we trying to achieve as human beings with each other.  Marva spends time working on the team by asking questions like “how did we do in this meeting?”  The ROI of establishing relations with team members and between team members, understanding each other, cultivating commonalities and strengths within teams is almost infinite because it gives people the opportunity to navigate the concerns they are dealing with.  WBECS was already remote and had learnt a lot of techniques about operating teams remotely. It believed in the principle of providing support and care for individuals and so it was able to double down on the kinds of supports needed during the pandemic. Marva shares a story of where this principle came to life with a colleague suffering Covid-19 with her daughter at home.  The pandemic taught us many great new norms, caring for each other, considering ourselves as whole persons not just professional suits etc. Some of the threads of these new norms have been loosened. Some people continue to compartmentalise their lives.  Marva believes that some coaches are prone to a form of compartmentalising too. We are taught Civil Discourse in our profession as coaches but sometimes we forget those same principles in other domains of our lives.  Marva shares a story “on herself” to honour the title of this podcast called confessions from the field of Team Leadership, where she was not happy with the way she behaved and how she caught herself and ultimately responded.  Marva shares the labyrinth involved in communication between complaint and solution, pausing & reflecting on experience and evidence, choosing how to respond, managing the space between stimulus and response.  Victor Frankl.  The marriage of WBECS and Coaching.Com means greater access by coaches to technology and the use of a coaching management system and greater access to coaches by enterprises.
