What does it take to build a team that consistently performs at a high level? In this episode, Kevin sits down with Dr. Vanessa Druskat to explore what emotionally intelligent teams look like and how leaders can foster them. Vanessa introduces the concept of "team emotional intelligence" and explains why team culture, not just individual skills or personalities, is often the key differentiator between average and high-performing teams. She shares her practical three-part model, based on nine team norms, that top teams use to create environments of trust, psychological safety, and accountability. Vanessa also discusses why emotionally intelligent teams are fundamentally about how people interact, not just how they feel. She reveals what leaders should do in the first meeting of a new team to set the tone for long-term performance, and why nonverbal behaviors and small habits matter more than you think.

On this episode of Trending in Education, host Mike Palmer talks with Halley Bowman, who focuses on curriculum and tutor training at Saga Education, and Katherine Huete, founder of the consultancy Estelita and a leader in scaling language support at Saga. We explore the powerful resurgence of high-impact tutoring, especially its critical role in supporting emergent multilingual learners (EMLs) in secondary math. Halley shares Saga's unique model, which integrates dedicated, small-group tutoring into the school day, making this high-impact intervention accessible to all students and leading to astounding results, including the closure of up to 50% of the opportunity gap. She highlights the importance of the individualized, caring relationship between a student and their dedicated adult tutor. Katherine, a former newcomer student who became a bilingual special education teacher, defines the shift to the more asset-based term, "emergent multilingual learner" (EML), which values all a student's languages rather than ranking them. We discuss the misconception that math is a universal language, needing no language support. We delve into the concrete, "bite-sized" strategies SAGA uses to train its diverse workforce of tutors—from recent college graduates to career changers—to effectively support EMLs without needing a deep education background. These effective, implementable strategies include using visual aids to provide context and reduce language barriers , and offering sentence frames to help students articulate their mathematical understanding. The conversation also emphasizes the value of translanguaging, where tutors encourage students to use all the languages in their linguistic repertoire to better cement knowledge. Finally, we address the role of AI in quickly generating translations and customized strategies, while emphasizing that the crucial human element of cultural responsiveness and building trust remains paramount. Key Takeaways: High-Impact Tutoring is a Proven Solution: SAGA's in-school model closes up to 50% of the opportunity gap. Math is Not Language-Proof: Math contains complex language, and even differences in punctuation (like using a comma instead of a decimal) can pose barriers for EMLs. Small, Actionable Strategies Work: Tutors are trained using micro-learnings on implementable skills like providing visuals and sentence frames, which benefit all students, not just EMLs. Translanguaging is Empowering: Encouraging students to use all their languages (e.g., Spanglish) helps them grasp and transfer mathematical concepts more effectively. The Human Connection is Essential: Cultural responsiveness, including pronouncing a student's name correctly, builds the trust and respect that is fundamental to high-impact tutoring. Why You Should Listen: If you care about equity in education and the future of the teaching workforce, this episode provides a clear, evidence-based look at one of the most effective interventions available today. We offer practical, actionable insights into supporting multilingual learners in subjects often presumed to be language-independent.

When the colder months trigger grief, anxiety, or seasonal depression, Psalm 94:19 offers an anchor: God’s consolation brings real joy even when our hearts feel heavy. Fall and winter can stir painful memories, shorten our daylight, and intensify emotional weight—but these seasons don’t have to be walked alone. God meets us in the darkness, understands the sorrow we carry, and invites us to bring every fear, memory, and ache to Him for comfort and healing. Highlights Seasonal shifts can stir grief, trauma, or depression, making fall and winter emotionally overwhelming. Psalm 94:19 reminds us that God brings joy even when anxiety runs deep. Talking with God—and with trusted loved ones or professionals—creates space for healing. Painful seasons don’t mean you’re alone; God fully understands the weight you carry. New memories, community, and small steps of connection can help soften the heaviness. With God, joy can return even to seasons marked by loss or sorrow. Healing often comes slowly, but God remains present and tender with every step. Gift Inspiration: Crosswalk's Holiday Gift Guide Looking for a meaningful way to celebrate the season? Check out our Holiday Gift Guide—from beautifully illustrated Bibles and devotionals to novels, greeting cards, and picture books, there’s something for everyone on your list. Wrap up stories for loved ones, tuck a book into your own nightstand, and join us in celebrating the wonder of giving this Christmas! Full Transcript Below: When the Fall and Winter Seasons Feel HeavyBy Vivian Bricker Bible Reading:“When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” - Psalm 94:19 Autumn is a season of beautiful leaves, crisp air, and an endless array of pumpkin-themed sweets. For many, the autumn season rings in fond memories and excitement for the upcoming holidays. However, for some, the colder months loom like a dark cloud. At one time, I, too, loved the autumn season as I was excited to see the leaves change, go trick-or-treating, and get ready for the start of the holiday season. However, each fall has a heaviness over it ever since my mom passed away a few autumns ago. Ever since then, it has been difficult to associate these months with anything else. Fall can be heavy, and it can be overwhelming at times for many of us. Perhaps, like me, you experienced a traumatic life event that clouds each autumn with sad memories. Or, perhaps you experience seasonal depression during the fall and winter - something that is common among many people. The days get shorter, and we’re left in darkness for much longer. Know that whatever it may be that is bringing heaviness into your life during this time, you are not alone. If you feel that fall is a difficult season to navigate, it is essential to talk with God as well as loved ones about what you are feeling. Reaching out to medical professionals can also be helpful if you ever have concerns about depression, anxiety, or thoughts of self-harm. Even if you only have minimal concerns around any of these things, be proactive about addressing them with your primary care provider. Intersecting Faith & Life: The Bible tells us, “When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy” (Psalm 94:19). Although fall can bring much sorrow into our hearts, God can also bring joy into them. Whenever our hearts are full of anxiety, sorrow, or pain, we need to go to the Lord in prayer. God's consolation will bring us joy. God understands the pain we are feeling and how certain seasons can cause painful memories or depression to resurface. Despite the pain and heartbreak we are experiencing, God can help us to see the light of life again. Even if you think you will never enjoy fall again or you won't be able to walk into autumn without pain, know that it is more than possible. All things are possible with God (Matthew 19:26). The heaviness may continue; however, try to allow God to heal your weary heart. God may provide healing through your family, friends, or spouse. Make new memories with those around you and treasure the memories of the past. We might always feel a bit heavy when fall comes around, but sometimes this heaviness can keep our loved ones close to our hearts. Why does this season feel especially heavy for you? How can you bring those things to God? He longs to bring joy to a weary heart - all you need to do is reach for Him.

Today's episode of the Punk CX podcast features a discussion I recently had with Jonathan Rosenberg, who is the Chief Technology Officer and head of AI at Five9. Jonathan and I talk about why he believes CX is reaching a tipping point and what's driving that, how things are likely to change for customers, agents, and businesses, what he's seeing companies do well/right, as well as what to avoid in order to better harness the obvious potential of AI. This interview follows on from my recent interview – How Vodafone, Rabobank and others are driving meaningful results with AI – Interview with Matt Healy of Pega – and is number 562 in the series of interviews with authors and business leaders who are doing great things, providing valuable insights, helping businesses innovate and delivering great service and experience to both their customers and their employees.

In this episode of The Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Terry Modica, co-founder and executive leader of Good News Ministries, a global organization dedicated to digital content creation and mission-driven outreach. Terry shared her inspiring journey of how Good News Ministries was born out of a deep passion for evangelization and education, sparked by her experiences in adult education and transformative workshops. Terry recounted the pivotal moment when she and her husband felt called to move from New Jersey to Florida, where they encountered a community eager for the same mission they had envisioned. This led to the establishment of Good News Ministries of Tampa Bay, highlighting the importance of stepping up to a calling and taking risks in the pursuit of a greater purpose. Throughout our conversation, we explored the challenges Terry faced in transitioning her vision into reality, including the need to adapt to new leadership styles and the importance of building a strong organizational culture. Terry emphasized the significance of treating people with respect and responding to their needs, drawing from her own experiences of frustration with unresponsive organizations. We also discussed the role of technology in expanding their reach, as Terry embraced digital platforms early on, recognizing the potential of the internet to connect with a broader audience. She shared insights on measuring impact, not just through statistics but also by listening to the feedback from those they serve. Terry's commitment to continuous self-improvement and her guiding principles as a servant leader were evident throughout our discussion. She underscored the importance of being adaptable and responsive to the needs of the community, which has been crucial for the sustainability of Good News Ministries. As we wrapped up the episode, I encouraged listeners to reflect on their own visions, establish effective systems, and engage their communities to bring their missions to life. Terry's experiences and insights serve as a powerful reminder of the impact we can have when we are dedicated to serving others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Reaching the next generation is something that we talk about a lot on the shows. How do we get the young people in our churches to continue to follow Christ with everything that they have? To live for Christ has been a challenge for every church age and for every generation, but Gen Z is uniquely complicated. They live in a world that prizes self-expression that discourages conviction. They celebrate spirituality but they reject absolute truth because that's just the world in which they live in. They can't even trust their own eyes many times.As pastors, parents, and mentors, how do we not only help young believers to take their faith seriously, but also inspire them to be bold, evangelical, unashamed and mission minded?In a culture that often labels faith in Christianity as intolerant. These are things that our kids face. Now, on today's show, we are talking with Austin Dutton, pastor at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in Lawton, Alabama. He makes an investment in the youth there. Young adults and student ministry alike. And we're going to talk with him about what it looks like for parents, churches and youth pastors to encourage our youth to move from silent belief to outspoken faith.Visit https://www.lfbi.org/learnmore
