This week's Open Mic guest is Randy Russell, President of the Russell Group. The race for the White House and leadership of the 119th Congress is coming down to the wire. The majority of polls show very narrow margins, but Russell suggests some trends may be developing as indicators of a Harris or Trump administration. Russell says history could be made in this Congressional election but control of the House of Representatives may not be known for several days after Nov. 5. Disaster assistance will likely be on the Lame Duck agenda and perhaps an economic assistance package for farmers, however, Russell says a new five year farm bill will likely be added to an already stacked legislative agenda in 2025.

Farm Bill discussions are happening, but nothing is written yet. This is because there are other issues that have to be addressed first, according to Randy Russell, president of The Russell Group. The Russell Group is a bipartisan government relations firm focused exclusively on food and agriculture public policy. This will be Russell's ninth Farm Bill. He says what he's learned in that time is that there are three factors that drive the outcome: the farm economic environment, the budget environment, and the political situation. He starts with comments on the farm economy, which he says looks good today compared to the historical average.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Randy Russell of the Russell Group spoke during the National Association of Farm Broadcasting's Washington Watch.

SHOWNOTES:• I've been very fortunate to be in education, this is my 33rd year and I started like many of us, as a teacher and as a coach. And then I got a chance to get into administration. I'm currently the Freeman School District Superintendent, I've been here for 10 years, and just having a blast. I just really love it. I'm married to a great teacher, Shauna, she's a family consumer science teacher, and she does a fantastic job. (3:13)• I was actually with my classes today, I was just talking to them kind of candidly. They're asking, How do I like being a virtual teacher? And I took a moment and I said, you're probably not going to like my answer. And they're like, Oh...because I actually am really loving it. Yes, of course, I miss you guys like crazy, and I want to see you in person and not just read your names on the black tiles of zoom, but there is something to be said with the lessons that I have created to take it a step further and beyond and to become better than if we were in our classes. (8:34)• We have a self-care webinar that's offered in December, and it's with my good friends, Dr. Michelle Price, Tim Rypien and Kelly Amos, MS. We're going to team together, and it's going to be absolutely fantastic. We're developing a truly repeatable program to help people with their social, emotional, their mental, their physical and their spiritual wellness, and Kelly is going to talk a little bit about bio-hacking. Tim's going to talk about a steady approach for success. We've got Michelle talking about self-care and what that looks like in each of the different components. And then I'm going to tackle a little bit about the three ships. (15:32)• And when you're a seasoned veteran, you can figure out how to navigate this. But if you're a first year teacher or a first year principal or a first year superintendent, and this is the world that you're living in, boy, that is challenging. So we've gotta stay together because everybody's going to be frustrated at some point in time. From the superintendents, all the way through any certificate classified or leadership team member.

Its CB week so we chop it up with Chad Wilson, Richard Johnson covers a little camp action for the Gators, then Manny Navarro covers the Canes. Finally, Special Guest Randy Russell catches us up on all things Gators!
If the purpose of a spring game is to have a blast and get fans salivating for the fall, it’s safe to say “mission accomplished” for Dan Mullen and his staff. The Gators set off some daytime fireworks last Saturday, scoring a total of 95 points in the exhibition and elevating expectations for next season. On today’s show, host Adam Schick recaps the game and what it means for the 2019 season (1:41), lays out the latest arrivals and potential departures for basketball (14:32), discusses a historic feat for softball (20:22), looks at how baseball found success through a shake up (22:02) and recalls epic concert experiences on the eve of Garth Brooks in The Swamp (24:40) with FloridaGators.com senior writers Scott Carter and Chris Harry. Plus, one year after a shocking diagnosis ended his Gator career before it started, Adam checks in with Randy Russell to learn the latest turns in his story and how he is adjusting to life without football (28:51).

It's so gratifying when you had a student with whom you were close, they graduate, and then years later you learn that they've achieved much. Mo Ross is a marvelous example of this phenomenon. In college, Mo was an integral member of Otterbein University's 2002 National Division Three Championship Basketball Team. I was still keeping tabs on Mo in 2002 and I was impressed with this lofty accomplishment.But then, I lost track of him. Certainly not on purpose, but I've taught over ten thousand kids in my career. It's hard to follow them all. I reconnected with Mo this past fall due to a tragedy. I coached Mo in Freshman Football many years ago. His best friend, Randy Russell, was also on my team. Randy passed away this past year and Mo and I talked frequently in the wake of this awful development.I was thrilled to learn that Mo had become an educator. In fact, Mo had became a principal. He's the perfect blend of ability, disposition, and vision. As you listen to this talented young man, you'll spot his leadership skills immediately. Those skills were evident to his teammates and me. He guided our freshman football team as the quarterback. His skills are now evident to his teaching staff. His common sense approach and calm supportive demeanor are major assets.This podcast is in need of more administrative perspectives. I frequently interview teachers and students. An administrator can describe student engagement from the objective perch of the classroom evaluation. This episode will give the listener a behind the curtain peak at exactly what's going through an administrator's mind as he watches you matriculate through your lesson.

It's been a phenomenal athletic year filled with incredible moments on and off the field, from walk-offs and Hail Mary's to inspiring stories like those of Randy Russell and Lauren Evans that we have told on this very podcast. But with baseball's exit from Omaha, we officially closed the book on the 2017-2018 athletic year, and now it's time to reflect. As we found out last summer, the best way to do that is by sitting down with athletic director Scott Stricklin to review it all in our season finale. Now wrapping up his first complete season at the helm, host Adam Schick spoke to Scott about his experience in Omaha and the uniqueness of the CWS (1:47), the remarkable success of the overall program (5:35), major coaching developments from this year (7:04), the latest updates on the various facility projects (15:34), Dan Mullen's first 7 months on the job (19:27), the addition of Jay Jacobs to his executive staff (21:02), his favorite moments from this season (23:14), how he filters through his Twitter mentions (27:36), his views on the expansion of replay in college athletics (29:27) and his summer plans (32:09).

Podcast Episode #60 is the second part of a two-parter with retired Lt. Randy Russell of the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, an innovator in the use of Lean methods for improving law enforcement (Part 1, Episode #51 is here). In this episode, Randy discusses some really interesting examples of how Lean methods are helpful in law enforcement and how 5S or standardized work can help save a life. Very powerful stuff. Randy’s company, Hyperformance Enterprises, LLC, operates a Lean consulting and training division that can be found online at www.improvementors.com. Randy's interests include waste identification and elimination, process improvement, transactional systems, and strategic alignment. His hands-on experience with Lean in a broad array of settings as the former Chairman of the (47+ member) Jacksonville Lean Consortium and his two decade career as a law enforcement commander and lead security planner for a Super Bowl provides valuable added experience and insights when it comes to dealing with sensitive and complex projects.

Podcast Episode #51 is the first part of a two-parter with retired Lt. Randy Russell of the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, an innovator in the use of Lean methods for improving law enforcement. Starting in 2004, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office began using Lean as a continuous improvement program. In the podcast, Randy describes their journey and the improvements that have greatly contributed to providing more time and resources for the officers to use in protecting the community. As in healthcare, the real opportunity for Lean is not using isolated tools in a trivial way, but rather in ways that save lives and provide more time for officers to be out on the streets adding value, instead of dealing with waste. It sounds like a nearly direct parallel to using Lean in hospitals to free up time for nurses to care for patients. Randy’s company, Hyperformance Enterprises, LLC, operates a Lean consulting and training division that can be found online at www.improvementors.com. Randy's interests include waste identification and elimination, process improvement, transactional systems, and strategic alignment. His hands-on experience with Lean in a broad array of settings as the former Chairman of the (47+ member) Jacksonville Lean Consortium and his two decade career as a law enforcement commander and lead security planner for a Super Bowl provides valuable added experience and insights when it comes to dealing with sensitive and complex projects.
