In this podcast, Professor Cary Cooper shares his extensive experience of working to create healthier and happier workplaces. Cary shares his belief that in times of rapid social change, organizational workplaces are more important than ever as sites that can provide healthy environments that support our well-being. Cary identifies key turning points that informed his work; firstly in the 1970s  stress was for the first time identified as a big challenge, and the response was to support the individual to cope with their stress better, e.g. stress management and responses such as today's mindfulness. In the 2008 financial crash and the subsequent 'job restructuring' when organizations stripped their workforce to the minimum, Cary observed a change in workplace responses when a manager said to him that the number one challenge he had was staff retention. This began a shift whereby organizations weren't so concerned with managing individual stress but realized they had to provide workplaces that offered healthy environments where employees could flourish, in order to ensure their well-being, get the best performance from them and to retain them. Cary identifies the line manager as perhaps the key ingredient for a healthy and productive workplace. Most line managers are chosen for their technical ability, and yet their role is vital in terms of people management skills. Reflecting on the UK's focus on growth, he points to the lack of a policy that focuses on this key area of people management; improving this he believes would be vital to increase growth. Cary reflects on his personal journey and shares that his life from an Eastern European Jewish working-class background story continues to impact on him,  citing the constant need to 'prove himself' as the driver of his success. This is a wonderful podcast with one of the great figures of our generation, who has contributed to organizational health and well-being.  Enjoy the listen! Bio: Professor Sir Cary Cooper Cary L.

Regardless of where people are born or the communities they belong to, equal access to healthcare should be a fundamental human right. In our age of pandemics, and with healthcare inequality widening, how can we make healthcare access equitable? Esteemed jurist and legal scholar Michael Kirby has tirelessly advocated for equal access to healthcare over his lengthy career. As a pioneering AIDS activist, member of the WHO's Global Commission on AIDS from 1988 – 1992, and respected legal mind, Kirby's focus in recent years has also included decriminalising homosexuality and sex work, and reducing the cost of life-saving medications. Hear Michael Kirby in conversation with journalist Geraldine Doogue as they discussed his life and career, focusing on what we have learnt from the HIV/AIDS epidemic, how we have applied those lessons during recent pandemics, and how we can build support for egalitarian global healthcare. Presented by the UNSW Centre for Ideas, The Kirby Institute and supported by UNSW Medicine & Health.   ABOUT THE DAVID COOPER LECTURE The David Cooper Lecture honours the legacy of The Kirby Institute's Founding Director, Professor David Cooper AC. Professor Cooper passed away in 2018 and was an internationally renowned scientist and HIV clinician, who laid the foundations for Australia's ongoing global leadership in the fight against the global HIV epidemic.    To make a donation to support David Cooper's incredible vision for equitable access to healthcare visit unsw.to/DavidCooperMemorialFund.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

America's religious and political public forum is no longer confined to debates between liberals (be they Catholics or Protestants) and socially conservative evangelicals and traditional Catholics—with atheists condemning all of the above. There is now among some Catholic intellectuals and academics a movement called integralism that calls for the United States to move towards an integration of church (the Catholic Church) and state. This movement in turn, is opposed by other conservative Catholics who regard integralism as not only unworkable but also undesirable, especially in the robustly pluralistic America of our day. Meanwhile, on both the Woke left and the alt-right there are essentially neo-Pagan movements which reject the American founding's identification of ethical monotheism as the foundation of fundamental rights and political and personal moral obligations. Enter scholars with a call to rediscover and revivify the classical and Christian sources of the founding. In The Classical and Christian Origins of American Politics: Political Theology, Natural Law, and the American Founding (Cambridge UP, 2022), Justin Buckley Dyer and Kody W. Cooper argue that this political philosophy, pre-dating Aristotle and continuing through thinkers such as Thomas Aquinas to Lincoln to Martin Luther King to scholars of our own day, offers a way forward towards a just society built on a strong, rich, easily grasped moral framework. The book we will discuss today with one of its coauthors, Professor Cooper, shows that many of the leaders of the American founding were steeped in the natural law tradition and that this tradition, while often developed and nurtured by Catholic thinkers, was also drawn upon and embodied by Protestants of the period of the American Revolution and the earliest days of the Republic such as John Jay, James Wilson, Thomas Jefferson, James Otis and John Dickinson. The authors write that many of the founders, imbued with the tenets of classical and Christian natural law thinking, believed in, “a moralistic God of justice who favored the side of liberty such that the revolutionary actors saw themselves carrying out the divine will on the world historic stage in obedience to the dictates of right reason.” The emphasis on reason is a key component of natural law thinking of all types and Cooper and Dyer argue in their book that a reexamination of the writings and belief system of the founding generation shows that far from being religious skeptics bent on creating a new world order that discarded faith in God, many the founders were in fact motivated in their rebellion against the British by their belief that revolt was called for when their ability to move their society in a moral direction based on the idea of natural rights bestowed by God was being hampered by diktats of the British king and parliament.

If you're a regular listener to Oven-Ready you'll know that we out together a couple of compilation episodes called Oven-Ready Reheated listening again to some of the key moments from the season's episodes.[00:39] William Tincup is the President and Editor at Large for Recruiting Daily, the number 1 site for recruitment news and opinion. I ask William if there is a pressure from employers for a return to the office in the United States.[02:56] In the first of two clips, Professor Sir Cary Cooper CBE , Professor of Psychology at Manchester Business School, The University of Manchester and the Immediate Past President of the CIPD responds to my question about the lack of soft skills training at business schools.[05:17] In this second segment, Professor Cooper reveals how flexibility can be introduced to the benefit of front line workers.[06:22] Staying with the soft skills theme, Dr Alex Young the founder of immersive learning specialist Virti and a former orthopaedic surgeon gives a direct response to the difference between a soft and a power skill. [08:18] Sandi Wassmer is the Chief Executive of the Employer's Network for Equality and Inclusion. In this clip, Sandi reveals what drives her to campaign for a more inclusive world.[10.52] I ask Steven Rothberg the Founder and Chief Visionary officer of College Recruiter how interns should be rewarded for their efforts.[13:01] Emma Burrows, the head of international law firm Trowers & Hamlins' Employment Department came on to the show to discuss the links between HR and a firm's ESG goals.  Here we talk about how employee wellbeing connects to the “S” or social in an ESG framework.

The world of work has never been so volatile, uncertain and complex.  Seismic changes and trends that would normally take decades to emerge have followed one after the other!To make sense of where we find ourselves I'm joined by  world's preeminent authority on organisational culture and employee wellbeing. Professor Sir Cary Cooper CBE is the 50th Anniversary Professor of Psychology at Manchester Business School, The University of Manchester.  He is a founding President of the British Academy of Management and Immediate Past President of the CIPD. Among his many achievements, Professor Cooper is currently the Chair of the National Forum for Health & Wellbeing at Work.  In 2014 he was awarded a Knighthood by the Queen for his contribution to the social sciences.  I don't like my boss [04:17]Professor Cooper remarks that a significant driver of the so called ‘great resignation' was in part employee's dissatisfaction with their boss.  He think this has led some in HR about whether they have right managers or managers with the right skills in place. Sadly he feels too many organisations recruit solely on technical skills and not soft skills or EQ.What do we do about Millennials and GenZ workers? [06:03]Professor Cooper believes this generation of workers have a very different value set to their parents. Mis-characterised as ‘Snow Flakes' Professor Cooper argues that this ‘generation' don't feel entitled.  They're just not prepared to tolerate what their parents did. Is Jacob Rees-Mogg right about flexible working? [07:53]Not according to Professor Cooper. He goes onto give a withering assessment of the UK's perennial issue with productivity despite working some of the longest hours.  Hybrid working another way [9:20]What is HR's obsession with numbers of days at home or spent in the office? Professor Cooper takes us back to the psychological contract and tells us to look at this in a different way.  He says this isn't a big conversation, so why have we made it one?A new deal for blue-collar workers? [11:18]Many of those in the ‘professional classes' have enjoyed the ability to work flexibly but what about those jobs that cannot be done from home? Professor Cooper recommends that a new deal such as a 4 day week or a variation of created to allow these workers some time off. Employee wellbeing is not about bean bags [15:33]Bean bags, sushi and ping pong is not employee wellbeing. Employee wellbeing is a major strategic shift. Professor Cooper highlights the NHS where every trust now has an non-executive director responsible for health and wellbeing. At [14:25], Professor Cooper argues for an NED responsible for health and wellbeing appointed to the board of every UK company whatever their size. Why don't business schools teach soft skills? [26:26]Business schools contrate far too much on teaching technical skills such as the key theories in HR, marketing and accountancy but in the main ignore more experiential leaning that gets individuals to understand their personality and the effect they have on others. Recruiting on the wrong skills [29:04]Attending a top business school or university isn't a guarantee an individual is going to be any good at managing others. Organisations need to look beyond the technical skills and assess instead an individual's interpersonal or soft skills. Professor Cooper believes the majority of managers/leaders can develop these skills and the ones that can't should not be allowed to manage anyone.Resources:https://www.linkedin.com/in/professor-sir-cary-cooper-4213909/https://www.linkedin.com/in/podcasthost/https://ovenreadyhr.comhttps://buddyboost.co.uk

Hank Hanegraaff, president of the Christian Research Institute and host of the Bible Answer Man broadcast, reacts to an article in The College Fix, “Rutgers University Faculty Groups Support Prof Who Said White People ‘Gotta Be Taken Out.'” The article is about statements made by Dr. Brittany Cooper, a tenured associate professor in the Department of Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and the Africana Studies Department at Rutgers University—a university with formative ties to the Dutch Reformed Church. In a video interview with The Root, Professor Cooper implies that white people invented slavery and conquest, and that white people are “committed to being villains.” She also states, “The thing I want to say to you is that we gotta take these [expletive deleted] out, but like, we can't say that, right? I don't believe in a project of violence. I truly don't, because in the end, I think our souls suffer from that. And I do think some of this is spiritual condition.” Elsewhere, she calls herself “a practicing Christian” and writes, “The Jesus I know, love, talk about and choose to retain was a radical, freedom-loving, justice-seeking, potentially queer (because he was either asexual or a priest married to a prostitute), feminist healer, unimpressed by scripture-quoters and religious law-keepers, seduced neither by power nor evil.” This ought to remind us once again that we are not to come up with our own novel interpretations of the word of God or the faith once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 3).

Stu Levitan welcomes UW Professor Emeritus John Milton Cooper, Jr., for part two of their discussion of one of the most important presidents in American history – Thomas Woodrow Wilson, whose legacy is as complex and controversial as any of our Chief Magistrates. Wilson amassed one of the most impressive records of progressive legislation of any president, yet left the worst record on race relations of any president in the 20th century, and allowed egregious violations of civil liberties. He kept us out of war in Mexico, but took us into war in Europe. A great student and thinker about good government, he was sloppy in appointing his cabinet officials and negligent in supervising them. A devout Presbyterian, he appointed the first Jew to the US Supreme Court, was the first president to visit the Roman Catholic Pope, and was buried in an Episcopal cathedral. And he's the man after whom Woody Guthrie is named. It's a record so rich for discussion this is our second show devoted to it, following a segment on February 15. There's no better guide to the life and times of our 28th President than John Milton Cooper, Jr., whom the Boston Globe called “the preeminent living historian of Wilson and his era.” We take for our primary text his 2009 volume Woodrow Wilson: A Biography, which the NY Times called “monumental,” and which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. And we also note his earlier work, The Warrior and the Priest: Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt. It seems Professor Cooper has spent his life in the world of Woodrow Wilson. He even graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School in Washington D.C., and received his bachelor′s degree summa cum laude from Wilson's alma mater, Princeton University, where Wilson later taught and served as president. Prof Cooper took his advanced degrees at Columbia University, and after a few years at Wellesley College, came to the University of Wisconsin, where he rose to hold two named chairs in History and American Institutions, and chair the famed Department of History before taking Emeritus status in 2009. And that's even another Wilson connection – when Wilson was a graduate student at Johns Hopkins, one of his favorite professors was Richard T. Ely, and one of his favorite students was Frederick Jackson Turner, both of whom would become famed members of the Wisconsin faculty. He has written half a dozen books, dozens of articles, and received numerous honors. He was the honorary president of the Woodrow Wilson Birthplace Foundation, and the chief historian on the 2002 American Experience biography of Wilson produced for PBS. I hope you were with us last week for the conversation with Jennifer Chiaverini about her historical fiction, The Women's March, about the Woman Suffrage Procession of 1913, and the suffragists effort to get Wilson to endorse a constitutional amendment enfranchising women. Because that is where we pick up our conversation, before going on to talk about race, the war, and other matters. It is a pleasure to again present on Madison BookBeat my friend, UW Professor Emeritus John Milton Cooper, Jr.

"In sum, Althaus-Reid wanted to help us free ourselves from dominating constructs that keep us from knowing God... the goal is not to formulate one theology but to celebrate the diverse ways of knowing God." I sat down with Thia Cooper to talk about her new introduction to the work of Marcella Althaus-Reid. We talk about the theological marketplace, attending to variety and lived experience in theology, the hermeneutical circle, the work that remains to be done, and armpits. Buy the Book Thia Cooper is Professor in Religion; Peace Studies; Gender, Women and Sexuality Studies at Gustavus Adolphus College. Professor Cooper teaches in the area of Religion, Culture, and Society.

On this third Monday of February, a day commonly, but mistakenly, called President's Day, Stu Levitan welcomes UW Professor Emeritus John Milton Cooper, Jr., for a discussion of one of the most important presidents in American history – Thomas Woodrow Wilson, whose legacy is as complex and controversial, as any of our Chief Magistrates. It's a record so rich for discussion we're taking two hours to cover it, with out second segment set for early April.

For anyone who doesn’t appreciate the critical importance of healthcare economics in the U.S., consider this: The average price for health insurance in the U.S. for a family of four is $18,500 per year. This is the equivalent of each American family purchasing a car every year.  Healthcare currently makes up nearly 20% of the U.S. GDP; and numerous studies have suggested that nearly one-third of that spend is unnecessary, wasteful and even harmful.  Given the unfettered rise in healthcare spending, it’s been estimated that Millennials will conservatively spend somewhere between 50 to 75% of their total lifetime earnings paying for healthcare.  These staggering statistics give you a sense of the important role that healthcare economists can play in determining the future of our healthcare system, and the future of our economy. Healthcare economists take an objective, data-driven approach to analyzing the issues of healthcare spending and utilization.  We’ll discover, in this fascinating interview with a leading healthcare economist, that many beliefs we hold about healthcare spending are based on incomplete data, and therefore erroneous conclusions. Dr. Zack Cooper - our guest on this episode of Creating a New Healthcare, trained at the London School of Economics and is an Associate Professor of Health and of Economics at Yale University. He is one of the rising stars on the healthcare economics scene; and represents the nextgen - trained in the most advanced science, analytics & machine learning that can be applied to healthcare spending, utilization & costs. His publications are regularly featured in the New York Times which wrote of Dr. Cooper’s work that it’s “likely to force a rethinking of some conventional wisdom about healthcare”.  In this interview, we’ll cover a broad range of topics including:What healthcare economists actually do & how they influence policies around healthcare delivery & payment.How Dr. Cooper’s ground-breaking research on commercial health insurance completely changes our understanding about regional healthcare utilization & costs.  Dr. Cooper’s recent research that challenges our belief that patients can act as informed consumers capable of making price-based decisions, even when they’re provided with straightforward, transparent, comparative pricing.Evidence-based recommendations for redesigning employee health plans.I came away from this from this interview with a newfound and enhanced respect for the role that healthcare economists play in creating a new healthcare. We need their powerful problem-solving methods & advanced analytics to help us decide which problems to solve and how to go about solving them.  It’s hard to argue against the notion that healthcare needs a new ‘True North’.  Perhaps we should take a closer look at the compass that Professor Cooper and his colleagues are constructing.

Professor Carolyn Cooper is a giant in her field. A pan-africanist scholar- activist of international standing whose work both celebrates and critically analyses of the popular culture of her home country Jamaica. In this episode (named after Professor Cooper's first book), the wonders of the internet allow Etienne and Connie of DTA to catch up with Carolyn in transit between Ghana and Jamaica. We clarify some of the issues she raised at her most recent appearance in London and explore her thoughts on Dancehall culture ahead of the upcoming LEVELS: Africa In The Dancehall session. Covering everything from Anansi and Rastafari to colonial governance and the 'pan-africanism' of controversial dancehall artist Vybez Cartel, this is definitely one to connect with.

For our organisations to create healthy cultures, we urgently need a new breed of managers: emotionally intelligent, able to give candid feedback, open, transparent and effective in leading organisational change.  According to our guest, Professor Cary Cooper, we still don’t have enough managers with strong people skills. In spite of progress made in the domain of HR in the past decades, people keep getting promoted to managerial roles for their technical expertise, not their leadership qualities.  It comes as no surprise that leaders lacking social skills create dysfunctional cultures characterised by utter lack of interpersonal understanding, transparency, recognition and personal and professional development.  As a result, the teams and organisation that they lead are often driven by fear and blame rather than by purpose and meaning.  Professor Cooper says that in order to creating wellbeing cultures where people thrive, change needs to start at the top. We need more senior leaders who walk the talk and can be seen as role models.  Sometime this may even require something that is greatly dreaded in the macho culture which is still so prevalent in today’s business world - vulnerability.  A good example of walking the talk and being is Antonio Horta-Osorio, the CEO of Loyds Bank in the UK, who admitted that his job nearly “broke” him as the bank’s finances drove him into a zombified state. Instead of trying to bury the news of his 2-month leave of absence caused by stress, he’d given details of the episode to raise awareness of mental health problems at work.  Other key qualities that the new breed of managers requires, according to Professor Cooper, are: Emotional Intelligence Keeping the right balance between recognition for a job well done and the useful constructive feedback  Proficiency in supporting their teams to navigate change and solve problems Resources and links: CultureLab Facebook page ⥤ https://www.facebook.com/CultureLabPodcast/ The Experimenters Club Facebook page ⥤ https://goo.gl/G7ubo7 More on Building a Coaching Culture Programme ⥤ https://goo.gl/Wyayqy Subscribe to the CultureLab Insider to get more free resources on culture and leadership ⥤ https://goo.gl/AUUbJz    

The subject of the most recent addition to the Nixon Now podcast is a timely one. Since the fall of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi in 1979, Iran and the United States have not had diplomatic relations. Despite recent agreements made in the realm of nuclear proliferation, the diplomatic climate between the United States and Iran has remained murky and has only moved slowly in the positive direction of rapprochement. Joining the Nixon Now podcast to discuss the history of the U.S. relationship with Iran is historian and U.S.-Iranian expert Andrew Scott Cooper. Professor Cooper is a contributing columnist to Foreign Policy and the Guardian newspaper’s Tehran Bureau website. He is affiliated with Columbia’s Center for Global Energy Policy and is a member of the UK Energy Institute. He is also the author author of “The Fall of Heaven: The Pahlavis and the Final Days of Imperial Iran.” Cooper spoke at the Nixon Library on September 19, 2016, to share his insight on the final days of one of the world’s most legendary ruling families, the unseating of which helped set the stage for the current state of the Middle East. Interview by Jonathan Movroydis.

Dr. Afua Cooper visits The Context of White Supremacy. The James Robinson Johnston Chair in Black Canadian Studies, Professor Cooper's research interests are African Canadian studies, with explicit focus on the period of enslavement and emancipation in 18th and 19th century Canada and the Black Atlantic.
