Podcasts about Professional development

As humans one of our strongest instincts is to build and strengthen connections with one another.  In this episode we talk with Tony Martignetti about Creating Deeper Connections.  We discuss the positives of creating deeper connections in the workplace,  how connecting with yourself is a critical first step, and how Tony encourages clients to share their “weird” to open up or deepen those connections.  Work with Danielle: If you are ready to start working with a life coach or just want to learn more about the impact that coaching can have in your life, visit Danielle's website at www.daniellemccombs.com and schedule a complimentary exploratory session. Work with Kristy: You can work with Kristy one-on-one or hire her to speak with your team to improve workplace communication. Visit Kristy's website at www.kristyolinger.com. TALK BIG QUESTIONS Use these prompts to have the opposite of small talk in real life. So, what is your “weird” thing about yourself? How will you start to deepen connections in your personal or professional life? Do you find it easy to connect with others particularly co-workers or are you more guarded and why?

Getting up at dawn and spending an hour making yourself wiser, calmer, stronger and deeper is one of the best habits a human being can install.How you perform under pressure depends on how well you've prepared for the battle. Legendary athletes will tell you that games are won before a foot is set on the court (by deep, focused, heroic practice). When I mentor a client, one of the protocols I put in place within the first week of the advisory engagement is a world-class morning routine. This ensures that they are positive, focused, energized and extremely productive in this time of volatility and negativity.  If you haven't read The 5AM Club yet join the millions of people doing so by getting your copy here.FOLLOW ROBIN SHARMA:InstagramFacebookTwitterYouTube

Since then, he has refined the process of analyzing and buying commercial properties that produce stellar cash flow.   Neil has been involved in over $300,000,000 in real estate transactions. While his holdings in commercial asset classes include apartments, offices, mobile home parks, and self-storage units, his passion is industrial property. Neil now has verticals in residential real estate, multiple commercial asset classes, brokerage, publishing, and this successful podcast.   Neil and his wife, Emily, are the proud parents of three active teenagers. Those who know Neil say he is a competitor by nature, whether for the biggest fish on a deep-sea fishing trip, the best ribs at a barbeque, or playing football back in his day at his alma mater, the University of Nebraska at Omaha as a Maverick. Neil is always up for travel, spending time on the water, and of course, meeting people interested in learning about and investing in commercial properties.   Click here to see video of the podcast.

In the wake of school disruptions during the pandemic, reports of widespread student misbehavior have been making headlines. It's the kind of story that attracts attention, with armchair analysis from individuals outside the field of education. Today, we'll hear from teacher, consultant, and author Arlène Elizabeth Casimir about how the behavior categorized as misbehavior is often an expression of trauma. In this excerpt from Trauma-Responsive Pedagogy: Teaching for Healing and Transformation, which Arlène co-authored with Courtney Baker, she explains how educators can easily miss signs of trauma in students. She shares ways in which students' trauma manifests in their behavior and helps us understand how adults' words can unconsciously punish students for their trauma responses.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's a highly engaged conversation among colleagues, sharing discoveries, aha moments, mistakes made with generative artificial intelligence, and lessons learned.

Stephen M. R. Covey is the author of Wall Street Journal #1 Bestseller, Trust and Inspire: How Truly Great Leaders Unleash Greatness in Others.  Joining Dr. Jackson for a truly inspirational conversation, Covey believes that even though our world has changed drastically, our leadership style has not.Most organizations, teams, schools, and families today still operate from a model of “Command and Control,” focusing on hierarchies and compliance from people. But because of the changing nature of the world, the workforce, the work itself, and the choices we have for where and how to work and live, these old rules of leadership no longer apply. Mr. Covey says that, “truly great leaders can create the right conditions to awaken the potential within a person” and that “they curate conditions in which a person can flourish. As a result, they see that person rise beyond every imaginable expectation.”The 2023-2024 school year has arrived. For EdLeaders, even in the midst of all of the challenges (budgetary and others), creating and curating conditions where students, teachers, staff, and administrators all “rise beyond every imaginable expectation” is imperative. Creating those conditions occurs through authentic relationships building and deepening trust to inspire all those around us to greater heights. Dr. Rob Jackson on TwitterEdLeader Podcast on TwitterStephen M.
