Why do most Australians back recognising a Palestinian state, yet nearly half dismiss it as merely symbolic? The executive director of Essential Media, Peter Lewis, shares the latest poll findings with the Canberra chief of staff, Josh Butler, about Palestine, as well as fears of AI-driven job losses fuelling strong calls for regulation, a four-day work week and the need for bold reform

In this episode, Al-Shabaka policy analysts Diana Buttu, Inès Abdel Razek, and Al-Shabaka's Co-Director Yara Hawari are interviewed by Al-Shabaka's commissioning editor Dina Hussein on the recent wave of Palestine State recognition by several European powers as a policy response to the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Don't miss it — we won't!   Connecting employees to the mission of an organization is a challenge faced by both nonprofit and for-profit attractions alike. While many companies have a mission statement written on the wall or tucked into a handbook, the real impact comes when team members truly live and breathe it in their daily work. Recently, the AttractionPros community was asked how to connect employees to the mission beyond training and orientation. In this episode, Matt and Josh talk about creative, authentic ways organizations are engaging employees with their mission and the practical strategies leaders are using to foster genuine buy-in. Making Roles Relevant "I think it's important for employees to know exactly where their role fits in in achieving the mission." – Kelly One key approach is showing team members how their work directly contributes to the larger purpose. Kelly shared her experience at a history museum, where orientation tied every role—no matter how behind-the-scenes—to the mission of storytelling. By making the mission specific and personal, employees feel valued and connected. Mission Beyond Nonprofits "Our mission is at the forefront of most everything we do at Hershey Entertainment and Resorts Company." – Jeff While mission-driven cultures are often associated with nonprofits, Jeff from Hershey Entertainment demonstrated how deeply mission can be embedded in a for-profit business. Through internships, education, and community outreach, Hershey connects its legacy to both guest experiences and long-term societal impact. This shows that mission alignment is just as critical in commercial organizations. Leadership Modeling the Mission "By consistently embodying our organization's mission, we built greater trust and belief among our team members." – Chris Chris emphasized that the mission must be demonstrated from the top down. When management actively participates in frontline activities, it reinforces credibility and trust. For employees to embrace the mission, they must see leaders living it every day, not just in one-time gestures. Recognition and Reward "What you are reinforcing are behaviors that align with your mission." – Michael Recognition programs should move beyond generic rewards to focus on behaviors that support the mission. Whether through incentives or acknowledgment, employees should feel that their alignment with organizational values is seen and celebrated. This transforms recognition into a meaningful reinforcement tool. Listening and Feedback "Be open to hear the good and bad. Be respectful and kind." – Gil An open culture ensures the mission is continuously evaluated and strengthened. By encouraging feedback—even when it's critical—organizations show that the mission is bigger than hierarchy. This openness fosters inclusivity and collective ownership of purpose. One-on-One Connections "One-on-one conversations… may feel like not the best use of hours… but could spread like wildfire through the rest of the team." – Brandon Individual conversations with employees create authentic pride and connection to the mission. While not scalable like company-wide messaging, these personal moments can have an outsized cultural impact. As Matt added, the biggest difference can sometimes be made with the smallest audience. Building Buy-In "Another consideration is reviewing the mission annually or biannually." – Eric Eric highlighted that real mission connection requires regular reflection and inclusion of all stakeholders. From frontline employees to executives, everyone should feel ownership. By revisiting the mission consistently and transparently, organizations nurture buy-in and prevent the mission from becoming just words on paper.   From leadership modeling to one-on-one conversations, each approach reinforces the idea that authentic engagement goes far beyond a plaque on the wall.

A new season of podcast episodes is starting and what better place to kick it off as the world's largest business and management conference. We are recording this episode at in beautiful Copenhagen, made possible through a generous invite from who organized a recording studio for us. Being here amid symposia, professional development workshops, panels, and paper presentations makes us wonder: what does it take to produce great, stimulating, and productive academic discourse? Does it depend on the people that get invited to speak, is it about their ideas, or what else? We sit down with our friend with whom we share some stories from the events we've attended at AOM and we distil a few rules that characterize good intellectual debate: let there be cognitive conflict about the merit of ideas, be bold enough to propose new ideas, show humility for the craft and work of others, and be respectful to your colleagues.     Episode reading list Kulkarni, M., Mantere, S., Vaara, E., van den Broek, E., Pachidi, S., Glaser, V.

In this episode, we'll dive into the complicated topic of "Disability and Disputed Illnesses: Navigating Claims Without Full Medical Recognition."Some medical conditions cause symptoms so real and severe that they disrupt daily life, yet remain disputed or only partly recognized by mainstream medicine. For patients, it is not just a fight to be believed, it is also a fight to secure the disability benefits they need. With ERISA-governed Long-Term Disability insurance, the challenges are even greater. In this episode of Winning Isn't Easy, disability law expert Nancy L. Cavey examines one of the most difficult areas of disability claims: conditions the medical community has not fully accepted. From chronic Lyme disease, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue syndrome to mental health diagnoses such as dissociative identity disorder, adult ADHD, and PTSD outside of combat, Nancy explains why these claims are often denied and what you can do about it. You will learn how insurers view subjective symptoms like pain, fatigue, and cognitive fog, why strong documentation and physician support matter, and the strategies that can help prove the impact of these conditions on your ability to work. Nancy also shares a real case example that shows how persistence and preparation can turn the tide. If you are living with a condition the medical world questions but your symptoms are real, this episode will give you the tools to fight for the benefits you deserve. Winning is not easy, but with the right strategy, it is possible.In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:One - Disputed Physical ConditionsTwo - Disputed Mental ConditionsThree - Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS)Whether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey.

Leadership transformed through the power of giving – this is the core of our conversation with Joe Davis, former head of North America for Boston Consulting Group and author of The Generous Leader. With 37 years of leadership experience, Davis challenges the old command-and-control model and shows how generosity unlocks greater outcomes. As he puts it, "Leadership isn't about yourself, but about unlocking the capabilities of those with whom you work."His philosophy is built on seven pillars: connecting personally, listening generously, showing vulnerability, practicing inclusivity, serving as an ally, developing others, and recognizing contributions. Vulnerability, in particular, proves powerful. Davis notes, "I think 'I don't know' are three of the most powerful words any leader can use." Rather than weakening authority, honesty builds trust and sparks team creativity.The discussion also turns practical with lessons on timely, specific feedback. Davis recalls failing early in his career by saving feedback until year-end reviews, learning instead that coaching must be ongoing. Whether you lead a team or an entire organization, this episode offers actionable ways to elevate your impact through generosity. Which of the seven will you focus on first?

1. Recognition of Somaliland The senator discusses efforts to urge President Trump to formally recognize Somaliland as an independent nation. Somaliland is portrayed as a stable, democratic ally of the U.S., strategically located near the Gulf of Aden. The senator criticizes China's influence in Africa, particularly its opposition to Somaliland's ties with Taiwan and the U.S. A letter to President Trump is read aloud, advocating for recognition based on Somaliland’s governance, military cooperation, and geopolitical importance. 2. Crime and Law Enforcement in Washington, D.C. The senator supports President Trump’s decision to deploy federal law enforcement in D.C., claiming it led to a significant drop in crime. Statistics are cited showing reductions in robbery, carjacking, and violent crime. The narrative criticizes Democratic leadership in D.C., alleging manipulation of crime data and failure to address public safety. The DC Police Union chairman is quoted, blaming legislative changes for the breakdown of the criminal justice system. 3. Criticism of Media and Democratic Leadership The hosts repeatedly accuse mainstream media of ignoring or misrepresenting stories that reflect positively on Trump or negatively on Democrats. There is a strong emphasis on the idea that Democrats prioritize political narratives over public safety, especially in high-crime urban areas. 4. Biden’s Use of the Autopen for Pardons The senator raises legal concerns about President Biden’s use of an autopen to sign pardons and executive orders. DOJ officials reportedly warned that some pardons were legally questionable and involved violent offenders, contradicting public claims. The discussion suggests that Biden may not have personally authorized some actions, potentially invalidating them. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

On this week's episode of Slappin' Glass, we're joined by Scott Lagas, Head Coach of Mercy University Women's Basketball. Coach Lagas has transformed Mercy into a powerhouse program, and he sits down with us to dive into the philosophies and habits driving their success.We explore:No-Middle Defensive Principles – how Mercy blends pack line concepts with directional defense, “Wolf Defense,” and the all-five-guard-the-ball mentality.Ball-Screen Coverages & Decision Making – why they emphasize hard hedges, chest zones, and daily advantage-disadvantage drills.Recognition & Culture – the role of peer-to-peer recognition, accountability mirrors, and even the cowbell in building a joyful, competitive environment.Surfing & Coaching Parallels – what paddling into a big wave teaches about hesitation, commitment, and chasing that elusive “perfect possession.”High-Split Action & Offensive Flow – why rim pressure and spacing drive their Princeton-inspired attack, and how Mercy leverages dynamic posts to create efficient looks.From building a culture of recognition to the X's and O's of elite defensive rotations, this conversation highlights the mix of tactical detail and cultural intentionality that defines Coach Lagas's approach.Presented by Dr. Dish & Hudl InstatTo join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 60 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. This morning, Hamas released a statement saying that Israel’s military plans to conquer Gaza City show its “blatant disregard” for efforts to broker a ceasefire and hostage release deal in the nearly two-year conflict. As Israel continues to weigh the partial, phased truce proposal accepted by the terror group on Sunday, we hear about the various forms of backlash faced by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu -- for both the Gaza City op and for the possibility of ending the war without achieving all war goals. As a slew of international nations announce their potential readiness to recognize a Palestinian state in September, a recent poll found that a 58 percent majority of Americans believe that every country in the United Nations should recognize Palestine as a nation. The issue of a "two-state solution" couldn't be farther from most Israelis' minds. Horovitz delves into why the flirting with recognizing Palestine -- now, during this war -- is drawing such passion from Israeli leadership, including Netanyahu in his dealings with his Australian counterpart.Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

There is an engagement crisis in our workplaces currently! Elizabeth “El” Lages, Chief People and Culture Officer at Flexera, shares how strong values, intentional leadership, and accountability fuel high engagement across global teams. Join us as we hear how her approach blends communication, transparency, and people-first practices to keep culture aligned and performance strong even through acquisitions and change. We learn how regular one-on-ones, clear expectations, and open feedback loops empower employees to contribute meaningfully and speak up. El gives us practical insight into building trust, supporting leaders at all levels, and creating real ownership across the organization. We're reminded that culture doesn't live in a handbook, it shows up in every conversation, decision, and recognition. When leaders model values and engage their teams consistently, people feel seen, heard, and motivated to show up with purpose. Highlights 1. Leadership Starts with Listening - Frequent check-ins and open conversations help leaders stay grounded in what their teams really need. 2. Clarity Is the Cornerstone of Accountability - When expectations are clear and consistent, people feel supported—not micromanaged. 3. Culture Lives in Daily Habits - Core values show up in actions, not posters. Recognition and transparency reinforce them. 4. Feedback Builds Trust - Employees want feedback—positive and constructive—because it drives growth and connection. 5. Support Leaders to Show Up Well - Ongoing development and real-time coaching help managers lead with clarity and confidence.

In this 292nd episode of Take Flight Weekly, we're digging into the real drivers of elite performance. Not theories. Not motivational fluff. We're talking about the psychology, systems, habits, and feedback loops that keep top producers at the top — and why “waiting to feel motivated” is one of the fastest ways to stall your business. Here's the truth: money may get you started, but it rarely keeps you going. Once your financial base is secure, the real fuel comes from clarity, recognition, purpose, and the environment you operate in. Elite producers know this — and they intentionally build those triggers into their daily routine.

Faisal Saeed Al Mutar joins The Winston Marshall Show for a powerful conversation on freedom, reform, and the unfinished business of the Middle East.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Hilary Rantisi speaks with Palestinian-Canadian lawyer and analyst Diana Buttu. They discuss Palestinian citizens of Israel, who have long navigated Israeli racism and have faced accelerated repression over the last 22 months that has included arrests, threats, and efforts to impeach Palestinian Knesset Member Ayman Odeh and undermine Palestinian political participation inside of Israel. They talk about responses to the Israeli genocide in Gaza, including recent protests and hunger strikes led by Palestinian citizens of Israel as well as growing numbers of Jewish Israelis who are naming Israeli actions in Gaza as genocide. They also look at the new diplomatic wave led by many Western states promising to recognize a Palestinian state and, specifically, how that state recognition is juxtaposed against the International Court of Justice's rulings on Israeli occupation. Finally, Diana reflects on the legacy of the Oslo Accords and the reckoning on those agreements that has never occurred.  Diana Buttu is a Palestinian-Canadian lawyer, analyst, and writer. She is also the Communications Director in Palestine for the Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU). Previously, she served as a legal advisor to the Palestinian Liberation Organization.

Drywall is one of the most commonly used materials in construction — and one of the most wasteful. It's estimated that more than 10 percent of drywall from new buildings end up in landfills. The material can release harmful gasses, such as hydrogen sulfide, and act as a potential contaminant for groundwater. But two architecture professors at Washington State University’s School of Design and Construction have developed a way to turn this waste into something useful.   Taiji Miyasaka and David Drake have spent years developing and patenting a process to transform drywall scraps into usable building blocks — a substitute for bricks — and fire-resistant wall panels that are both known as Drywall Waste Technology. Made with up to 90 percent drywall waste, WSU estimates that excess material from just 16 new homes could produce enough DWT material to build one tiny home. Miyasaka and Drake’s products have earned international acclaim, winning the AZ Award for Environmental Leadership in Azure magazine’s global design competition.   David Drake joins us to explain how this technology could be a resource in addressing both housing shortages and construction waste.

Episode 378: Fredericton, New Brunswick, in the sultry summer of 1949, was a community caught between the relief of peacetime and the tensions of post-war hardship. Along the margins of this tidy city lived George Hamilton (25) and Rufus Hamilton (23), two young black brothers whose lives had been fraught with poverty, exclusion, and desperation. These would be factors in the horrific actions they took, which would soon propel them into local infamy as the last men ever executed in Fredericton. At the heart of this tragedy was Norman Burgoyne: a respected, 35-year-old taxi driver, decorated war veteran, and devoted family man whose sudden, violent death would shatter the sense of safety in the city.
