Tonight's Jazz Feature is an important album recorded in one of the golden years of Jazz: 1959 but rarely mentioned. This album marked the first issued album under a new Blue Note contract by alto saxophone giant, Jackie McLean. Jackie was starting a new phase in career and this album marks the first step and it's a big step. Jackie emerges here from his early influences namely Charlie Parker and Sonny Rollins. Jackie also has one of the most distinctive sounds that's sometimes raw and harsh but always soulful and full of feeling. On this fine album McLean is featured with a frequent partner, trumpeter Donald Byrd. On piano is the fine Walter Davis Jr. who also composed four of the six tunes on the date. Paul Chambers is on bass and the drums are played by the innovative Pete LaRoca (aka Peter Sims).. All in all "New Soil" deserves recognition as another of the seminal recordings of 1959. Enjoy!

Leaders of organizations have a large responsibility when it comes to their own mental health, and of those in their organization. When they speak up about mental health, others can too. But vulnerability comes with risks. How can leaders model openness around mental health without bumping up against stereotypes and judgment? In this roundtable conversation, host Morra Aarons-Mele speaks with Harvard Business School professor Amy Edmonson – the pioneer of the concept of psychological safety at work; entrepreneur and best-selling author Peter Sims; and Megan Reitz of Oxford University and Hult International Business School about the leader's role in speaking up and fighting mental health stigma.

When's the last time you felt out of place? I'm sure a lot of us have sat with that feeling, whether that's professionally or personally. It can hit you just as easily in a boardroom meeting as when you're out with friends. So now that you feel like an alien that's crash-landed, what do you do? Our guest today has built his career around finding community for these so-called “black sheep.” Peter Sims is a former corporate investor who became disillusioned with the high-powered world of finance and left to form his own creative firm – appropriately named, Black Sheep. It's also the name of his new book, out in May, subtitled The Quest To Be Human In An Inhuman Time. What can we take away from Peter's journey, to help us better navigate those moments when you feel the need to find a new tribe?

Even though you have always been taught to avoid mistakes, the fact of the matter is that mistakes are good. This is because mistakes teach you where you went wrong and give you an opportunity to improve. If you want to succeed, you must take little bets, fail quickly, and learn fast. SummaryIn his path breaking book, “Little Bets: How breakthrough ideas emerge from small discoveries”, Peter Sims argues that truly innovative companies take little bets that help them to learn and grow. Listen to this Podcast by Edelweiss MF to learn how little bets can help you pave the road to success. 1. Success is not about having one great idea. It is about starting with one idea, discovering that it is flawed, and then quickly reshaping the idea with the new learnings.2. There are two main imperatives to achieving success. The first is to be willing to make mistakes and the second is to have an open mind and learn from these mistakes.3. When you become comfortable with failure and are able to view false starts and mistakes as opportunities, then you open yourself up creatively.4. Experiments are good. They give you an opportunity to test an idea, iterate, and improve. 5. When you start something new, don't just focus on the expected gains. Instead, focus on how much you can afford to lose. 6.  Always remember that while geniuses are exceptionally rare, anyone can use little bets to unlock creative ideas.Peter Sims' book makes it easy to understand the importance of taking little bets that can shape your journey and put you on the path to success. You can listen to the podcast on the Edelweiss Mutual Fund website, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and Apple Podcast. We hope you enjoyed this podcast and will tune in to listen to more such podcasts on investing nuggets.

The show then ends on an interview with the new British Light-Heavyweight champion, Craig Richards. Craig talks all about his win back on December 18th against Shakan Pitters.

Ni formule za uspeh. Poiščite kar vas veseli, kjer vidite strast. Najdite kar imate radi in tukaj vztrajajte in bodite odlični. 2. Bodite avtentični. V časih, kjer so odnosi pomembni, je avtentičnost izredenga pomena. Ugotovitet kdo ste in kaj ste, in bodite zvesti svojim načelom in principom. 3. Potrebno je razumeti, da je treba v današnjem času delati kvalitetno in uspešno, kar potegne za seboj ugled in izpostavljenost, ki sta prav tako izredenega pomena. Za boljše, višje položaje, je potrebno pokazati več kot odlično delo, potrebno je izstopati in biti stalno boljši kot si bil včeraj. *Slovenian Research Agency, Program P5-0364 – The Impact of Corporate Governance, Organizational Learning, University of Ljubljana, School of Economics and Business, Slovenia.

Today - We are hanging with Peter Sims of Parliament and Blk Shp. The episode is titled Learn but.... we also chat a lot about openness.At the end of last year someone told me “You should meet Peter - you two would have a lot in common”. I was open.

George, Bill with Peter Sims. True North: Discover Your Authentic Leadership. San Francisco: Jossey-Bass, 2007. True North is the internal compass that guides you successfully through life. It represents who you are as a human being at your deepest level. It is your orienting point--your fixed point in a spinning world--that helps you stay on track as a leader. Your True North is based on what is most important to you, your most cherished values, your passions and motivations, the sources of satisfaction in your life. There is no such thing as the instant leader. Your journey to authentic leadership will take you through many peaks and valleys as you encounter the world's trials, rewards, and seductions. Becoming an authentic leader takes dedication to your development and growth, as there will be many temptations to pull you off the course of your True North. Maintaining your authenticity along the way may be the greatest challenge you ever face. … To become authentic leaders, we must discard the myth that leadership means having legions of supporters following our direction as we ascend to the pinnacles of power. Only then can we realize that authentic leadership is about empowering others on their journeys. This shift is the transformation from "I" to "We." It is the most important process leaders go through in becoming authentic. How else can they unleash the power of their organizations unless they motivate people to reach their full potential? If our supporters are merely following our lead, then their efforts are limited to our vision and our directions about what needs to be done.

Hear what Peter Sims, author of Little Bets, a Founder of Parliament, Inc., BLK SHP, Silicon Guild and more, has to say about stepping back, the value of collaboration and the miracles of the people we encounter in our path on the Disrupt Yourself podcast.

Trombonist Locksley Wellington Hampton was nicknamed "Slide" as he mastered the trombone. Slide mastered other horns as well but also writing and arranging. He formed a hip working band in the early 60s called "The Slide Hampton Octet". Eight strong pieces but when budgets and circumstances allowed, Slide would augment the Octet for a bigger sound. It is thus with this album called "Sister Salvation" A few horns are added for a bigger sound and more involved writing. The results are a very disciplined recording but even with the tight ensembles and nice background riffs, the air of a small group prevails with lots of inspired solos by a young Freddie Hubbard, tenor saxophone master George Coleman, powerhouse baritone saxist Jay Cameron, Bernard McKinney (aka Kaine Zawadi) on euphonium and Slide Hampton himself on trombone. There is no guitar or piano in the rhythm section but Nabil (Nobby) Totah is a powerful bassist and Pet LaRoca (aka Peter Sims) is a killer drummer. This is a satisfying album for it's combination of small group freedom and the discipline of a big band all thanks to Slide Hampton. Of the 6 tunes, Slide arranged four and composed 3 of the pieces including the gospel flavoured title tune. Randy Weston's "Hi-Fly" is rendered a fine arrangement by Billy Frazier and George Coleman's arrangement of Gigi Gryce's "Minority" is a standout. Sister Salvation is refreshing and fun date and it's nice to know that Slide is still with us.

The surprising truth about highly successful people is they are not crazy risk takers. Yes, they all take many risks, but they are, calculated risks! What today's guest calls Little Bets. We're digging into ways to hedge your success by taking constant Little Bets. Peter Sims is the founder & CEO of Parliament, inc., and of BLK SHP (“black sheep”) who is also an accidental author. His latest book Little Bets: How Breakthrough Ideas Emerge from Small Discoveries, was selected as a one of the six best advice books for entrepreneurs by the Wall Street Journal and as one of the best business books of the year by The Washington Post, Inc. Magazine, AmEx OPEN. Peter is the coauthor with Bill George of True North: Discover Your Authentic Leadership, which was a Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek best-seller. His articles have appeared in The New York Times, Bloomberg, The Financial Times, Harvard Business Review, Forbes, and TechCrunch. A graduate of Bowdoin College, who frequently speaks or advises companies and organizations, Peter has had a long-term collaboration with faculty at Stanford's Institute of Design (the d.school) and received an M.B.A. from Stanford Business School.

Today on Business Machine is Bolaji Oyejide, founder of Bravepreneur Parents Academy, the #1 podcast to help parents raise superhero kids and 7-time best-selling author of the “Brave Little Heroes” book series. Education was always paramount in Bolaji’s family, and he followed the college path to success with a corporate career and family life. After being laid off from several jobs, he decided to give in to the voice in the back of his head that entrepreneurship would lead him where he wanted out of life. Mission Help kids discover what makes them unique and tenacious so they can get excited about changing the world. The origin story is imperative to the identity of superheroes, and Bolaji believes kids are in that origin story phase that can define them in some way for the rest of their life. In 10 years, Bolaji envisions a stand-alone company called Bravequest that will use video game concepts to help over one million kids develop. Learning From Our Mistakes Bolaji’s biggest lesson has been the mistake of not using a business model conducive to their industry. If you don’t plan how to monetize, you will sacrifice your health, relationships, and goals. You also should find a mentor that has been down the path that you now walk.

Total Duration 25:33 Download episode 56 One of the great challenges of business is how to go from idea to delivery. It's easy to talk about ideas but turning those into a finished product requires much more than talk. It can be daunting to deliver. There's the risk of failure. There's the fear of unknowns--of surprises that can create obstacles to success. Going from idea to delivery is truly challenging! Ultimately project management is about how to deliver results but leaders of projects and teams need more than just work breakdown structures and Gantt charts. One of my favorite books of this year provides great insights for all of us who seek to lead and deliver. I recently had the real privilege of spending some time with Peter Sims, author of a great new book entitled Little Bets: How Breakthrough Ideas Emerge from Small Discoveries, and look forward to sharing that discussion with you in this episode. You can learn more about Peter by visiting http://petersims.com. Thank you for joining me for this episode of The People and Projects Podcast! Have a great week!

Guests include John Millman, CEO of Sterling National Bank, Russ Koesterich, author of "The Ten Trillion Dollar Gamble" and Peter Sims, author of "Little Bets"
