Kelly Wendorf is a lifelong horsewoman, ICF Master Certified Coach, author, and founder of The EQUUS Experience®—an award-winning equine-assisted learning process that helps people tap into deeper awareness and authentic leadership. She began riding as a child and later became a dressage rider and trainer, running a riding school in Santa Fe. Her global journey has included studying with spiritual and Indigenous leaders across India, Africa, Indonesia, and Australia. Kelly also founded Kindred magazine in Australia, where she spent 15 years immersed in neuroscience, social justice, and transformative cultural change. She's the author of Flying Lead Change and editor of Stories of Belonging, an anthology highlighting diverse and Indigenous voices. Today, Kelly blends her lifelong love of horses with coaching, mentoring, and cultural innovation to help people lead with wisdom, compassion, and presence. In this episode, Kelly shares the experiences that have shaped her unique approach to working with both horses and people, including: • How her time with Indigenous communities and spiritual teachers has influenced her work and outlook. • What inspired her to start EQUUS and how it's grown into a business focused on connection and transformation. • The idea that great leaders lead from behind—and how that applies just as much to horses as it does to people. • Why being present and really listening to your horse's feedback matters, especially when you're asking something of them. Join Kelly and Sinead for a thoughtful and down-to-earth conversation about the human-horse relationship and how deep connection can lead to powerful change.

In this episode of the Speaking Out of Place podcast, Professor David Palumbo-Liu talks with Lindsay Weinberg and Robert Ovetz about the use of Artificial Intelligence in higher education. Under the guise of “personalizing” education and increasing efficiency, universities are increasingly sold on AI as a cure to their financial ills as public funds dry up and college applications drop. Rather than maintain that education is an essential public good that needs broad support, universities are looking to technology in ways that are changing the nature of education in dangerous and destructive ways. As Lindsay writes in the book, Smart University: “Higher education is becoming increasingly synonymous with digital surveillance in the United States. Advanced network infrastructure, internet- connected devices and sensors, radio frequency identification (RFID), data analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI) are being celebrated as a means of ushering in the age of “smart universities,” one where institutions canrun their services more efficiently and strengthen the quality of higher education using digital tools. However, as this book demonstrates, these tools have a darker side. They allow public universities to respond to and perpetuate corporate logics of austerity, use student data to reduce risk of financial investment in the face of dwindling public resources, and track student behavior to encourage compliance with institutional metrics of success. Surveillance of student behavior forms the foundation of the smart university, often in ways that prove harmful to students— particularly those who are already marginalized within the academy.They talk about these issues and attach them to critical issues of labor—everything from the outsourcing of the most dangerous work to laborers in the Global South, to the way university workers at all levels are subordinated to the logic that drives AI. They end with a discussion of what we can and should do about it.Dr. Lindsay Weinberg is a clinical associate professor in the Honors College at Purdue University, and the Director of the Tech Justice Lab.

Inside INdiana Business Radio for the morning of June 23, 2025. The Indiana Pacers' run through the NBA Playoffs has created a major impact for the regional economy in central Indiana. Plus, Purdue University improves its global ranking. Get the latest business news from throughout the state at InsideINdianaBusiness.com.

Nearly one year ago—July 1, 2024—the urban university in downtown Indianapolis known as IUPUI—or Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis—officially split into two separate campuses. This created Indiana University Indianapolis, a standalone campus in the IU system, and Purdue University in Indianapolis, which is considered an extension of Purdue's main campus in West Lafayette. IU Indianapolis took the vast majority of the land and buildings considered part of IUPUI. The school is focusing in part on research, commercialization and student opportunity in the life sciences and biotech sectors. With its Lafayette extension, Purdue wants to draw more students interested in engineering and business to the university, including through new degree programs such as motorsports engineering and executive education. With a relatively modest amount of land set aside for its Indianapolis operations, Purdue needed to figure out how it eventually could have an outsized impact. It recently revealed its long-term plans—16 buildings ranging from five to about 20 stories on just 28 acres of land in the northwest sector of downtown. In this week's edition of the podcast, IBJ's Mickey Shuey unpacks Purdue's high-density strategy to serve 15,000 students per year by 2075. Mickey also digs deep into perhaps the greatest hindrance to growth in that area—West Street, the wide and heavily trafficked thoroughfare that essentially creates a barrier between the Mile Square and everything to the West. As Mickey reports in the latest issue of IBJ, tearing down that figurative wall is becoming a greater priority for the city of Indianapolis. The Hogsett administration has begun “preliminary discussions” with the neighborhood and universities to develop potential solutions. But any fix likely to come from those talks—whether spanning the roadway with bridges or tunnels, creating a parkway, or adding more crosswalks to slow traffic—will be expensive and likely require consensus from many stakeholders.

In complex industries like aerospace, defense, and manufacturing, there's a dangerous disconnect between the boardroom and the factory floor. Executives focus on margins, growth, and shareholder value—but the employees making daily decisions often don't understand how their work impacts the bottom line.  Why? Because no one ever taught them. In this episode of The Aerospace Executive Podcast, Dr. Kevin Koharki, former investment banker and now finance professor at Purdue University, explains how companies can unlock massive performance gains by teaching finance fundamentals to their workforce. From engineers and sales teams to HR and operations, when employees understand financial strategy - how cash flow works, what drives ROI, how margin impacts decisions - they become smarter, more aligned, and more effective. Kevin shares how he's helped Fortune 100 companies, private equity-backed aerospace firms, and industrial organizations build a culture of financial literacy that transforms performance from the ground up.   You'll learn: Why frontline employees often don't understand P&L ownership The ROI of teaching finance basics across the organization Why most corporate leaders don't know how to read financial statements The difference between academic finance and real-world business acumen How financial education improves decision-making, culture, and cash flow If you're leading a complex organization and want to align your teams around financial outcomes, this episode is for you.   Guest Bio Kevin Koharki MBA, PhD is the founder of CAE Consulting, LLC.  He consults with, advises, and provides keynote speeches for some of the world's largest firms (e.g., Fortune 100) across various industries such as aerospace and defense, banking, insurance, distribution, manufacturing, law firms, among others. He specializes in developing employees' and Executives' financial acumen so they understand and can communicate the financial value of their work, optimizing CEOs' capital allocation priorities across their respective organizations. In doing so, clients benefit from enhanced organizational trust, culture, and performance.  Kevin is an expert financial analyst who has analyzed hundreds of firms over a 20-year career (including as an M&A analyst).  In addition, he has taught financial statement analysis at the Executive, Masters, and Undergraduate levels for 15 years at Top 50 universities.   He can be reached at kevin.koharki@caecoach.org, www.caecoach.org, https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinkoharki/, or (765) 637 – 3206   About Your Host Craig Picken is an Executive Recruiter, writer, speaker and ICF Trained Executive Coach.
