Send us a textIn this episode of Authors Who Lead, I sit down with Brian Andrews and Jeffrey Wilson, the powerhouse writing duo behind the riveting thriller Dark Rising. Both veterans with storied pasts—Brian, a former submarine officer with business acumen, and Jeffrey, a trauma surgeon and Navy veteran—found common ground far from the battlefield: at a thriller writing conference.Their partnership, as Jeffrey jokes, was born of “stalking” at the International Thriller Writers' ThrillerFest, where their shared backgrounds and values—family, faith, and service—formed a natural foundation for creative collaboration. But it wasn't instant coauthoring. As Jeffrey explains, “Once we decided that we were gonna do this thing, we went into it knowing we're either gonna become better friends or destroy this friendship forever. Let's see." Thankfully, the outcome was a deeper bond and a writing team that has delivered years of explosive storytelling.Timestamp:00:00 Teamwork in writing: military ethos05:05 Balancing writing with distractions09:39 Inspiration cycles for writers13:14 Embracing pantser writing surprises14:23 Characters' voices shape the story17:11 Curiosity and predictability in writing21:46 Teaching writing to nonfiction leaders26:19 Embrace imperfection in writing27:52 Antagonist's two-week mission33:01 Balancing passion and obligations36:33 Supporting veterans in new ventures38:49 Principled characters in chaotic times40:43 Honoring unsung heroes through fictionFull show notesCOMMUNITY PROGRAMS

Philippe is author of What Hangs In The Balance and is an advocate for principled and ethical leadership in public service. During his 24 years on active-duty Philippe served as a fixed- and rotary-wing pilot, intelligence officer, and diplomat (military attaché). In this conversation, we delve into the complexities of leadership, particularly focusing on ethical considerations, the importance of character traits, and the distinction between principled and unprincipled loyalty. The discussion emphasizes the risks associated with a lack of principled leadership and the vital role of selfless leadership in fostering a positive organizational culture. SHOW NOTES Summary In this conversation, Blaine and Philippe Johnson delve into the complexities of leadership, particularly focusing on ethical considerations, the importance of character traits, and the distinction between principled and unprincipled loyalty. They explore how effective leadership is defined by the ability to accomplish organizational missions while maintaining a connection to core values. The discussion emphasizes the risks associated with a lack of principled leadership and the vital role of selfless leadership in fostering a positive organizational culture. In this conversation, Philippe discusses the essence of principled leadership, emphasizing the importance of selflessness, moral courage, and the connection to purpose. He reflects on his leadership journey, the impact of exemplary leaders, and the significance of self-awareness in leadership roles. The dialogue also explores the challenges of leadership in a divided nation, the role of fear versus ideals, and the necessity of ethical leadership in fostering a positive organizational culture. Takeaways Leadership is fundamentally about causing movement. Effective leadership is tied to the mission of an organization. Character traits like humility and empathy are essential for leaders. Principled loyalty is crucial for ethical decision-making. Unprincipled loyalty can lead to detrimental outcomes. The risks of ineffective leadership include low morale and poor mission accomplishment. Selfless leadership connects individuals to the organization's core mission. Leaders must balance loyalty to their superiors with their ethical obligations. The essence of leadership involves influencing others positively. Ethical leadership is increasingly important in today's global context. Finding ways to stay connected to our core mission is essential. Leaders must exemplify the core values of their organization. Selflessness in leadership involves prioritizing the mission over personal interests. Moral courage is crucial for leaders, especially in challenging situations. Leadership training should reinforce foundational values and character traits. Learning from bad examples can be as valuable as learning from good ones. Self-awareness is vital for understanding how others perceive you. Feedback is essential for growth and improvement in leadership. Effective leadership generates possibilities for individuals and organizations. The use of fear in leadership can lead to negative consequences for democracy. Sound Bites "Leaders cause movement."

As the Trump Administration works to re-envision, revise, and rewrite the ways in which the United States engages with the world, it remains important that people understand the why and the how of U.S. foreign policy. Whether you want to make America safer, more prosperous, and more secure, or you take a broader look at the importance of global engagement, understanding the goals and limitations of U.S. power can inform your thinking of the U.S.' role in the world.Speaking with Andrew Albertson, Executive Director of Foreign Policy For America, this episode outlines what a principled approach to foreign policy looks like and how the current administration diverges from the traditional approach. From respecting human rights, building important alliances, and engaging the global economy, there is a lot about U.S. foreign policy that can be improved, but we must ensure we do not throw the proverbial baby out with the bath water. By listening to this month's episode you will gain insights into the state of U.S. global engagement, hear about why it remains important to U.S. prosperity, and how you can help shape the U.S.' approach to the world.

Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn, senior senator for Tennessee and the first woman to represent the Volunteer State in the United States Senate. She serves on the Deputy Whip Team and is a member of the Finance Committee; the Commerce, Science & Transportation Committee; the Veterans' Affairs Committee; and the Judiciary Committee. Senator Marsha Blackburn serves as the Ranking Member on the Commerce Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, and Data Security and on the Judiciary Subcommittee on Human Rights and the Law. Before her election to the Senate, Marsha represented Tennessee's 7th Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives. The conversation focuses on the following topics: ✅ President Trump's State of the Union Address, presenting his vision for a Golden Age of America. ✅ Senator Blackburn requiring transparency and accountability, working with FBI Director Kash Patel in obtaining unredacted Epstein logs and other pertinent materials ✅ Senator Blackburn spearheading DOGE Acts to hold the federal government accountable for managing taxpayer dollars. Collaborative efforts with Elon Mask in making the federal government more efficient and slash wasteful spending. ✅ Strengthening the economic partnership between the U.S. and Taiwan. ✅ Senator Blackburn's recently introduced Tax Administration Simplification Act, to provide straightforward, taxpayer-focused improvements to streamline tax filing and payment for individuals and small businesses. ✅ Strengthening US-Israel ties and combating anti-Semitism with new leadership in Congress and the White House. ✅ Making America Healthy Again | Healthy foods and eating habits for a healthier America. Throughout her time in Congress, Marsha has led the fight to hold Communist China accountable. Her in-depth analyses of the Chinese Communist Party's threats to American sovereignty have prompted Congress to examine legislation countering Beijing's malign influence on global supply chains, technology infrastructure, and international organizations. After Beijing took over the once autonomous region of Hong Kong in 2019, Marsha led bipartisan legislation, which was signed into law by President Trump, that prohibits the U.S. export of crowd control equipment to the Hong Kong Police Force. Her bipartisan Open Technology Fund Authorization Act, which supports internet freedom by addressing authoritarian regimes' efforts to censor the internet, was also signed into law. At the same time Marsha has stood up to Communist China, she has worked to bolster the U.S.-Taiwan relationship. In August 2022, she visited Taiwan, met with President Tsai Ing-wen in Taipei, and called to strengthen connections between the U.S. and Taiwan. During this visit, Marsha made her stance clear: Taiwan is a country. On border policy, Marsha bases her approach on the simple truth that until our borders are secure, every town will be a border town and every state will be a border state. In the Senate, she has led the charge to fully fund the United States Border Patrol, restart construction of a physical barrier, impose harsher criminal penalties for drug smuggling, and fight for law and order on behalf of the thousands of women and girls lost to cross-border human trafficking.

Rachel Maddow looks at how principled resignations are not only slowing down Donald Trump's agenda to destroy the U.S. federal government, but are drawing attention to the sketchy stunts Trump and Elon Musk are trying to get away with.
Tonight on The Last Word: Resignations mount at the Justice Department under Trump. Plus, Democrats demand answers on Elon Musk's access into Social Security. And Trump and Putin officials meet without a Ukrainian envoy. Andrew Weissmann, Sen. Ron Wyden, and Timothy Snyder join Lawrence O'Donnell.
What makes a truly powerful leader? My answer is a bit counter-cultural. Two of the biggest qualities I consistently observe in the most powerful leaders are that they are Principled and they are Responsible. Being principled starts with being extremely clear about your own personal values and modeling those values in all circumstances. Being responsible starts with seeking to understand first, suspending judgment until that happens. So what are two things that Powerful, Principled and Responsible leaders do? They assume best intent and they stay in their lane (values lane that is!) Please listen to this short episode where I make my case and share practical tips for how you can truly be a powerful leader.

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)When it comes to buying real estate, the saying is location, location, location. When it comes to negotiating a divorce settlement or parenting plan, we say strategy, strategy, strategy. And whether you're negotiating at the kitchen table, participating in mediation, or working through attorneys, the same principles apply.In Getting to YES: Negotiating Agreement Without Giving In, William Ury tells us that “standard strategies for negotiation often leave people dissatisfied, worn out, or alienated - and frequently all three”. That's because most of us have only learned how to negotiate using a style called positional bargaining.In positional bargaining, parties simply try to outwait, overpower, or out argue each other until someone finally gives enough. They may reach agreement, but it isn't satisfying for either one of them. Principled negotiation, on the other hand, allows for mutual satisfying solutions and wise agreements.Listen in as Tracy and Debra review the elements of principled negotiation and discuss the reasons working with a DCA certified divorce coach is the best way to become informed, develop skills and create a strategy so you can negotiate in a way that both aligns with your desired outcomes and minimizes conflict.

Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with host Gerard Gibert, an extraordinary entrepreneur and business leader. Mr. Gibert is also the host of Middays with Gerard on SuperTalk Mississippi . The timely and relevant conversation on America's Roundtable with Gerard Gibert focuses on the issues impacting Americans including the urgency to rein in government spending and the concerns that Congress has failed to put forward a balanced budget. Gerard Gibert also highlights the importance of addressing tax reform and healthcare reform. The conversation on America's Roundtable tackles the ways in which Congress, the incoming Trump administration joined by engaged citizens and taxpayers can address fraud, waste and abuse impacting the Department of Defense (DOD). "In fiscal year 2024, DOD underwent its seventh financial statement audit, and again received a disclaimer of opinion. For the seventh time consecutively, auditors were unable to “obtain sufficient, appropriate audit evidence to support an opinion.” GAO continues to designate DOD's financial management and business systems modernization efforts as high risk because of pervasive deficiencies in the department's business processes, internal controls, financial reporting, and financial management systems." — House Committee on Oversight and Accountability, December 11, 2024 In 1986, Gerard Gibert founded Venture Technologies, a technology and cloud services provider. As CEO of Venture, Gibert engineered numerous mergers and acquisitions of strategic targets, catapulting Venture to national prominence as a technology solutions provider. Initially funded at $189,000, Venture was sold for $92 million in 2019. Mr. Gibert serves on a variety of boards dedicated to growing Mississippi's economy. That list includes the Madison County Economic Development Authority, Madison County Business League and Foundation, Innovate Mississippi, Empower Mississippi, and the Mississippi Lottery Corporation. Gerard Gibert also serves on the executive advisory board of International Leaders Summit and is co-chair of the U.S.-based think tank's American Leadership Task Force advancing principled reforms. americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @grgibert @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

Sen. Blackburn just unveiled her “DOGE Acts” to cut spending and freeze federal hiring, as well as salaries. As America faces an illegal immigration crisis, Senator Marsha Blackburn's leadership is vital.

Chapter 1:Summary of Getting To Yes"Getting to Yes: Negotiating Agreement Without Giving In," written by Roger Fisher, William Ury, and Bruce Patton, is a seminal book on negotiation strategy that advocates for principled negotiation. The book emphasizes the importance of finding mutual gains and collaborative solutions, rather than engaging in adversarial bargaining. Key Concepts:1. Principled Negotiation: The authors propose a method of negotiation that focuses on interests rather than positions. This means negotiators should seek to understand and address the underlying interests of both parties.2. Four Fundamental Principles:- Separate the People from the Problem: Negotiators should maintain a good relationship while addressing the substantive issues at hand.- Focus on Interests, Not Positions: Instead of taking fixed positions, negotiators should explore the interests behind those positions to find common ground.- Generate Options for Mutual Gain: Creativity in brainstorming potential solutions can lead to agreements that benefit both parties.- Use Objective Criteria: Decisions should be based on objective standards, such as laws, precedents, or expert opinions, rather than the will of either party.3. BATNA (Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement): The book stresses the importance of knowing your best alternative if negotiations fail. This awareness empowers negotiators and helps them avoid agreeing to unfavorable terms.4. Communication: Effective communication is critical in negotiations. The authors advocate active listening and clear expression of interests to foster understanding.5. Emotional Intelligence: Recognizing emotions—both your own and those of the other party—can lead to more effective negotiation outcomes. Conclusion:"Getting to Yes" is a guide for those looking to negotiate effectively and fairly, promoting a win-win approach that can lead to sustainable and amicable agreements. The principles outlined have been widely embraced in various fields, including business, mediation, and conflict resolution.Chapter 2:The Theme of Getting To Yes"Getting to Yes: Negotiating Agreement Without Giving In" is a seminal work in the field of negotiation, co-authored by Roger Fisher, William Ury, and Bruce Patton. The book outlines a principled approach to negotiation that emphasizes collaboration and mutual benefit rather than adversarial tactics. Here are some key plot points (ideas), character development (the roles of negotiators), and thematic concepts presented in the book: Key Plot Points (Ideas):1. Principled Negotiation: The authors advocate for a method of negotiation that focuses on interests rather than positions. This approach encourages parties to explore their underlying needs and desires, leading to more sustainable agreements.2. Four Pillars of Principled Negotiation:- People: Separate the people from the problem. This point emphasizes the importance of maintaining good relationships and not letting personal issues interfere with the negotiation process.- Interests: Focus on interests, not positions. Negotiators should identify what each party truly wants instead of just defending their initial stance.- Options: Generate a variety of possibilities before deciding on an agreement. Collaboration can lead to creative solutions that satisfy both sides.- Criteria: Use objective criteria to evaluate options. This helps prevent negotiations from becoming power struggles and ensures that agreements are based on fair standards.3. BATNA (Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement): Understanding and developing one's BATNA is crucial. This concept emphasizes that knowing the alternatives to a negotiated agreement empowers negotiators to pursue better outcomes and avoid unfavorable deals.4.

I have been struck by the thoughtful and nuanced conversations that are being had across the US about the coming elections. But there remains confusion. One such community that probably has reason to be sceptical of mainstream Muslim organisations and their approach to politics, as relationships, is the all-important African American Muslim community – very often neglected in any conversation.I have invited today to show someone who I deeply respect for how he thought through these essential topics long before Gaza came along to haunt us.

[SEGMENT 1-1] A Kamala Harris world… It's a delicate balance between informing and not causing a panic. I don't know how Democrats can live as they do. I have never seen a more group of deranged people than a Democrat voter. These people have truly lost touch with reality. Can I give you a couple of examples? Real stories… Daily Mail Headline: 12-yr-old being taught about anal sex in school while 9-yo are told to “masturbate” for homework. Shocking lesson plans used by teachers in the UK 7 years imprisonment in the UK for mis-pronouning https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1824045/labour-gender-pronouns-hate-crime-law Last year a Christian preacher was convicted of harassing a transgender woman by calling her a “man” and a “gentleman”. David McConnell was given a 12-month community order for leaving Farrah Munir “emotionally distraught” after an argument between the two while he was preaching on a street in Leeds. His conviction was quashed after magistrates ruled there was no evidence it was intentional. Anneliese Dodds, Shadow Women and Equalities Secretary, said: “The Conservatives are failing to protect LGBT+ people with their inability to get a handle on hate crime, including violent hate crime. “Labour will strengthen the law to ensure the perpetrators of anti-LGBT+ hate can no longer dodge longer sentences. “And our fully funded plan to recruit 13,000 more neighbourhood police and community support officers would increase safety for everyone.” How many Spanish language commercials do you see for candidates? At the start of the year, many months after we first pointed out that the biggest untold story of the US labor market was the "great replacement" of native born workers with foreign-born workers (most of whom we subsequently learned were illegal aliens), we asked how is it, that the ongoing replacement (because that's what it is) of US workers is "not the biggest political talking point right now" considering that "since October 2019, native-born US workers have lost 1.4 million jobs; over the same period foreign-born workers have gained 3 million jobs" Source: ZeroHedge [SEGMENT 1-2] Devious Left and Montana Politics [X] SB – Robby Starbuck on Sheehy being targeted by Democrats Mark Cahotes Bridger Aerospace…put fires out MT company, publicly traded.

The stated goals of diversity, equity, and inclusion programs are often reasonable, if not noble—to create a more welcoming and inclusive environment for all. Yet, as more and more people are discovering, DEI as commonly practiced isn't a natural extension of past civil rights movements or an ethical framework for opposing discrimination on the grounds of race, sex, etc. Rather, it is inextricably connected with an illiberal and authoritarian ideology—Critical Social Justice—that demands adherence to its tenets and punishes any dissent from its dogma. Even the mildest questions about Critical Social Justice claims—that all white people are racists, that all underrepresented minorities are oppressed, that sex and gender differences have no biological basis, that censorship is a necessary good—are regularly met by DEI trainers and HR officers with pat commands: “Educate yourself,” “Do the work,” “Listen and learn.” At work, raises, promotions, and future employment often depend on our nodding approval of such claims. At school, grades, nominations, and awards are often contingent upon our active agreement with these beliefs. In our daily lives, Critical Social Justice ideology poses a genuine threat not only to our fundamental rights but also to the future of our democratic systems, but if we suggest this, we risk being canceled or shunned by community members. When facing a choice between silent submission and risky if ethical opposition, what is a person to do? While a growing number of groups concerned about the nature of Critical Social Justice have begun to attack it from the top down through legal, financial, and political means, The Counterweight Handbook takes a decidedly different and novel approach. It works from the bottom up and is written to empower individuals who wish to combat Critical Social Justice in their personal and professional lives. Based on the author's years of experience studying, exposing, and fighting Critical Social Justice ideology and advising individuals and organizations struggling with it, The Counterweight Handbook is designed to help people address Critical Social Justice problems in the most ethical and effective way possible. It not only offers principled responses to the main claims of Critical Social Justice but also teaches individuals what to do when they are asked to affirm beliefs they do not hold, undergo training in an ideology they cannot support, or submit to antiscientific testing and retraining of their “unconscious” minds. In short, it is for all of us who believe in freedom of speech and conscience, who wish to push back against the hostile work and educational environments Critical Social Justice has created, and who want to stand up for our individual liberties and universal rights. Helen Pluckrose is a liberal political and cultural writer and was one of the founders of Counterweight. A participant in the Grievance Studies Affair probe that highlighted problems in Critical Social Justice scholarship, she is the coauthor of Cynical Theories and Social (In)justice. She lives in England and can be found on X @HPluckrose Shermer and Pluckrose discuss: origin of the problem • DEI and CRT • what it means to “Educate yourself,” “Do the work,” “Listen and learn.” • top-down vs. bottom-up counter measures • race reckoning • antiracism • gender ideology • decolonizing and dismantling • fragility • intersectionality • normativity • positionality • privilege • wokeness.
FAITH IS… with Pastor Rick Stevens – Decision-makers often frustrate us with their choices. Understanding the difference between transactional and principled decision-making helps, even if we disagree with them. The mysterious figure of Melchizedek, with his Messianic connections, sheds light on biblical narratives and enriches our understanding of Jesus as part of the order of Melchizedek.
