Today's podcast is part of the Future of Coaching series where Ram Ramanathan is leading a guided meditation session for our participants. He also answers few questions regarding meditation and suggests methods and books to help one practice it.

Coaching is still a relatively new modality and remains unregulated; as such it's a rich ground for innovation as well as ethically questionable behaviour. In this conversation with master coach Ram Ramanathan we discuss the dark side of the coaching industry, systemic coaching, working with stakeholder perspectives and fostering collective intelligence. Ram S. Ramanathan MCC is a master coach for leaders who wish to embark on their Hero's Journey and founder of Coacharya. As a leadership development coach, Ram works with groups and individuals on issues of team-building, alignment of cultural values, co-creation of vision to action plans, strategic performance issues of engagement, and coping with VUCA. He has authored several books on Eastern philosophy and published articles internationally on mindless awareness in coaching. He teaches as an adjunct faculty at post graduate programs and speaks at events related to human development.

President Biden on Thursday signed a bill to recognize Juneteenth — the celebration to commemorate the end of chattel slavery in the United States — as a federal holiday. Plus, in a victory for survivors of domestic and gang violence seeking asylum in the U.S., the Department of Justice on Wednesday vacated the controversial Trump-era decisions. And San Diego climate scientist Ram Ramanathan was given two distinguished international awards this week honoring his pioneering work on climate change. Then, it's been painful to lose so many of our elderly to COVID-19. But there are also many families, especially Latinx families, grieving the deaths of those who are younger. Also, San Diego Catholic schools saw an uptick in demand because of their in-person options. Finally, Angelika Film Center at Carmel Mountain, like all cinemas, reopened Wednesday at full capacity under the new relaxed pandemic guidelines from the state. We'll tell you what to expect if you go to the movies.

For any sustainable growth to thrive there has to be a building of an ecosystem of conscious corporate leaders. Where there is an opportunity for people to open up and express themselves, there is shared learning and people become emotionally bonded together for a common goal.    That is what this conscious leadership stands for.    Ram Ramanathan has 40 years of global corporate leadership experience, 30 years of spiritual training with 7 years as trainee monk, 10 years as a leadership coach as the cofounder of Coacharya - a leading, award-winning, coaching company where its focus is in building an ecosystem of conscious corporate leaders.    In this episode Ram shares his thoughts on why individual leaders find it difficult to align with organisational vision when their lenses change through coaching. He also pointed out the importance of learning from mistakes, and why we shouldn't just revel in the knowledge we acquire, we need to gain wisdom from it.           What you will learn from this episode:    Discover the importance to democratize coaching to bring positive systemic change across the world Learn why for an organization it is important that leaders learn from mistakes Know what a systemic coach is and their responsibilities      “The systemic approach is a means to an end. Mistakes need to be made because in any leadership development, a part of anyone becoming a leader is that they have to make mistakes and learn from them.”  Ram Ramanathan      Valuable Free Resource:    Why Systemic Leadership Coaching? Check-out the blog at https://coacharya.com/blog/why-systemic-leadership-coaching    Topics Covered:     01:39 - What is conscious leadership, conscious capitalism, or servant leadership?    05:08 - Why is there a need for a systemic approach to leadership?    10:01 - Why does he think people are not learning from history's mistakes and keep repeating the same mistakes?    12:04 - Actionable tip to help people learn from their mistakes    15:10 - One free resource that can people understand the concept of the learning organization    16:49 - What did he do as a spiritual seeker for a while?    22:02 - Learning from ancient spirituality to align with Quantum Science          Key Takeaways:      “I coach CEOs. Because CEOs do not like to be coached, they know everything, they want others to change, they don't want to change themselves. I rarely found CEOs coming to me for any kind of input for changing themselves.”    “People don't learn from their mistakes.”     “As a corporate leader, I was never used to listening. I was used to telling people what to do. Fear was the key, but as a coach, it has that diametrically opposite kind of stuff. So I work with leaders today, to see how they can completely shift themselves.”    Resources Mentioned:    Otto Scharmer's Theory: https://www.presencing.org    Connect with Ram Ramanathan:    Website: https://coacharya.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/coacharya Twitter: https://twitter.com/coacharya Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/Coacharya

Stadsodling etableras i lokaler utan ljus och i krukor utan jord. Kan den typen av odling bli en viktig del av vår livsmedelsförsörjning eller är den bäst som en ny slags hobbyodling?   I flera städer världen över spirar odlingar, inte sällan i mörka, trånga rum, till exempel bergrum som inte längre används. Även containrar används som växthus med denna typ av odling, som då också är möjliga att flytta runt. Växterna odlas i näringslösningar i stället för jord, och odlingspallarna  staplas på höjden för att utnyttja de begränsade utrymmena så mycket som möjligt. Led-lampor ersätter solljus och kan styra växternas utveckling. Klotets reporter Björn Gunér har varit i Holland och besökt forskaren Leo Marcelis, professor i hortikultur och produktfysiologi vid Wageningens universitet.  I slutet bjuder vi på en intervju som inte har sänts i Klotet förut. Det är en av påven Franciskus vetenskapliga rådgivare, Ram Ramanathan, som är professor i klimatvetenskap vid University of California, och var den som fick påven att börja ta upp klimathotet i sina tal.  Programledare: Marie-Louise Kristola. Programmet är en repris från den 17 januari.

This week on Science Today. A new role of the brain’s hippocampus has been discovered. Cognitive neuroscientist Robert Knight of the University of California, Berkeley explains this is the part of the brain where Alzheimer’s often starts. But until now, the hippocampus was only known for storing memories. But as Knight found, it’s also involved in generating language. "It is not just being told what to do by the cortex and the language areas. They are both contributing to effective language capacities. It kind of elevates the hippocampus out of the memory field and puts it to a more global cognitive domain – in this case, language." It just goes to show that researchers still have a lot to learn – and as we found out in our next story, one thing that’s been helpful are study cohorts. Epidemiologist Janet Wojcicki of the University of California, San Francisco says she’s been able to garner so much information beyond her original research following a Latina cohort recruited in pregnancy and followed a number of years. "Our primary outcome was really to better understand factors that are related to obesity and development of chronic disease in early childhood, but we also measured telomeres, the protective cap of the DNA." Shorter telomeres are associated with chronic disease development and Wojcicki found that in this cohort, early, exclusive breastfeeding of infants was linked to longer telomeres. And next, we visit the beautiful Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego to talk to atmospheric scientist V. ‘Ram’ Ramanathan. He’s written countless studies, which he called “obituaries of the planet’ after successfully predicting a significant increase in global warming within the next two decades. And yet, he felt no one was listening. So, as a member of the Vatican’s Pontifical Academy of Sciences, he took his message to the Pope. "So I told him basically to talk about climate change in his speeches and urge people to be better stewards of the planet. Ten days later, he made this major pronouncement and talked about climate change and warned people if you destroy nature, it will destroy you." This later became known in climate change communication circles as ‘The Francis Effect’, but that’s a story for another time.

Atmospheric scientist V. ‘Ram’ Ramanathan of the University of California San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography was part of the California contingency in Paris during the UN Climate Change Summit. Ramanathan has predicted a significant increase in global warming within the next two decades, but says there’s plenty that can be done now to ‘bend the curve’ – including practical solutions that are already being implemented at UC San Diego. "We generate our own power by solar, fuel cells and using methane from water treatment plants. They are off-the-shelf technologies. There is no reason these cannot be deployed by the rest of the nation and for the planet." Ramanathan, a member of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences at the Vatican, had a quick audience with Pope Francis in the parking lot of the Vatican last year. "So, I told him basically to talk about climate change in his speeches and urge people to be better stewards of the planet. Ten days later he made this major pronouncement and talked about climate change and warned people if you destroy nature, it will destroy you."

Back in 1975, climate scientist V. ‘Ram’ Ramanathan of the University of California, San Diego accurately predicted how the earth’s climate would change by 2010. And while his climate model chart continued to show further warming, Ramanathan says we can ‘bend the curve’ in this chart if we take collective measures now. "We have the science and we have the technology. This is where the intitiatives taken in California could shine a brightest light possible on this problem. The Carbon Neutrality Initiative of the University of California, through which we would go to nearly zero emissions another ten years and then combine that with the state of California’s aggressive actions to mitigate climate change by using solar fuel cells and waste gas can provide like a beacon for the nation and for the planet to follow."

Janet Napolitano, President of the University of California, describes the steps the University of California has undertaken to reduce its carbon footprint to zero; Nobel Laureate Mario Molina describes international actions; and “Ram” Ramanathan, chief architect of the “Bending the Curve” report, lays out the Top Ten Scalable Solutions to combat global climate change.
