Podcasts about relational intelligence

Why you should listenSarah McDevitt, a HubSpot leader and first-time author, breaks relational intelligence into five practical signals (Awareness, Presence, Empathetic Structuring, Connection Capital, and Human Differentiation) you can use to become the partner a client cannot swap out for a tool.Learn how to be a "context miner" in every meeting: the way sharp partners use full presence to extract how a business actually makes decisions, then feed that context into their AI agents to get outputs generic prompts cannot match.Get Sarah's read on where the retainer money moves next as AI creates a wave of "vibe coded" messes, plus the governance and platform cohesion work partners can charge for when customers realize they need one person to own the whole stack.You have spent years getting deep on the platform, and now AI can do a slice of that build work in minutes, so a quiet question sits at the back of your mind: what is a partner actually for now? In this episode, I talk with Sarah McDevitt, a HubSpot leader and first-time author of The Round Table, about relational intelligence, which she defines as the ability to build, sustain, and grow trust-based relationships that AI cannot replicate. We get into why the skills AI makes less scarce do not make you less useful, and why so many partners have their identity wrapped up in the exact technical work that is now being handed to agents. Sarah has spent years watching what separates the partners who stay in the room from the ones who get swapped out, and almost none of it is technical. If your value has always lived in the build, and you can feel that ground shifting under you, this conversation is about where your value goes next.About Sarah McDevittSarah McDevitt is the Senior Director of Partner Strategy at HubSpot, where she leads a global community of more than 7,000 partners through AI transformation. A native of Sligo and now based in Dublin, Sarah is the creator of the Relational Intelligence framework and the author of her first book, The Round Table: How Relational Intelligence Will Become Your Human Advantage in the AI Age. Her core thesis, "RI + AI = Trust," argues that the smartest organizations use AI to strengthen human relationships rather than replace them. A TEDx speaker and advocate whose work spans hybrid team leadership and responsible AI adoption, Sarah helps partners see that as technical skills become less scarce, the ability to build trust becomes their most valuable and defensible asset.Resources and LinksSarah McDevitt on The Paul Higgins Podcast: Episode 642 - Stop Being a Platform Expert - Why Business Growth Advisors Win in the AI Era with Sarah McDevittHubspot.comSarah McDevitt on LinkedIn20VC podcastNeed help with your WHO and WHAT decisions?

In Episode 146, Bob Coecke, Founder and CEO of Relational Intelligence returns alongside Alessandro Cheli, Categorical Machine Learning Operations at Relational Intelligence, to introduce two brand new companies. The bulk of the conversation covers Relational Intelligence, built on the idea that intelligence — human, mechanical, or otherwise — is better understood through relationships than through the reductive, static frameworks that dominate western scientific thinking. The team dig into relational modeling, the DisCoPy Python library for working with string diagrams and category theory, and why this approach produces AI that is interpretable and formally verifiable in a way neural networks are not. The conversation also touches on how the architecture is quantum-native from the ground up, meaning it won't need to be retrofitted when scalable quantum hardware arrives. Bob closes with a brief look at Quantum Entertainment Berlin, including a quantum guitar performance at Wacken Open Air and a VR game designed to teach quantum mechanics by being genuinely fun to play.

A Quick Note to Listners: Before this week’s interview, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke take some time to answer a listener question. This week’s question is: I'm thinking about retiring in a year, but I want to do something part time. What are some options you've learned about consulting that I might be able to develop for me? Listen in to hear their response! Meet Brad Johnson and Rachel Edoho-Eket: In this episode of Principal Matters, Dr. Schwanke is joined by two heavy hitters in the education world: Dr. Brad Johnson, author of over 20 books including the newly released Coffee with the Custodian, and Dr. Rachel Edoho-Eket, a Blue Ribbon school principal, TEDx speaker, and President of the Maryland Association of Elementary School Principals. Together, we dive into the core philosophy of their co-authored book, Relational Intelligence. We challenge the outdated “command and control” model of leadership, shifting the focus from technical systems to the human systems that actually drive school success. As we discuss, while strategy is important, it simply doesn't move the needle if the foundational relationships aren't in place. Emotional Intelligence and Relational Intelligence: In our conversation, we explore the critical distinction between Emotional Intelligence (EQ) and Relational Intelligence (RQ). While EQ helps a leader understand themselves, RQ is what allows them to effectively lead others by navigating the complex web of stakeholders—from students and staff to parents and the central office. Brad and Rachel share practical advice on how busy administrators can prioritize “connection over compliance.” We talk about making “relational deposits,” the power of being vulnerable enough to admit when we don’t have all the answers, and why research shows that RQ is actually a better predictor of leadership success than IQ. The Million Dollar Questions: Finally, we tackle the “million-dollar questions” of school leadership: handling toxic staff members and preventing burnout. Dr. Johnson shares his “HOPE” framework—focusing on Help, Opportunity, Praise, and Encouragement—to flip the script on our natural tendency toward negativity. We wrap up with a look at his narrative approach to leadership in his new book, reminding us that the best insights often come from the most “invisible” people in our buildings. This conversation is a powerful reminder that while your title gives you your position, your relationships are what truly define your impact.

You can be quiet, private, and easily drained by crowds and still become a popular trustworthy woman. We're unpacking the myth that “she must be an extrovert” is the reason some women seem surrounded by supportive friendships, respected professional connections, and opportunities. I challenge the story many smart, capable women tell themselves, “I'm an introvert, so I'm not good with people.” That story feels accurate, but it quietly turns a skill into a life sentence. We take a values-based approach to networking and relationship building, with a firm line between sincere connection and anything transactional. Think of social capital as trust, goodwill, and follow-through, not collecting contacts. We talk about relational equity the same way you'd talk about investing: small deposits made consistently can compound into a powerful, stable network over time. Checking in, celebrating someone's win, remembering what matters to them, making thoughtful introductions, and keeping promises are not “small” when they're repeated. Then we get highly practical: introverts need a system, although they think they need to rely on pressure to create their social support. I share how a simple relational operating system reduces decision fatigue so you stop overthinking what to say, when to reach out, or whether it's awkward. You'll leave with ideas for a weekly plan, quick prompts to guide your outreach, and a reframed sense of legacy rooted in faith and character. If you found this helpful, subscribe, share it with a friend who calls herself “bad at networking,” and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

Sarah Stone McDevitt was made to sit at the back of the class when she was a child in school due to her dyslexia but this experience helped her on the road to writing her book ‘The Round Table- How Relational Intelligence Will Become Your Human Advantage in the AI Age'. She joins Bobby to discuss.

What if your child's future success depends less on what they know and more on how they connect with others? In this episode of the Raising Smart Kids in a Digital World series, I explore relational intelligence and why strong, authentic relationships are essential for learning, resilience, and personal growth. I explain how children develop their understanding of trust, respect, communication, and connection through their earliest relationships—especially those they observe at home. Through practical examples, I highlight the powerful role parents play in modeling healthy interactions and creating a foundation of honesty, respect, and meaningful conversation.

Ask Rachel anythingWhat are we really telling boys about how to be a man? And why do so many teens seem to be struggling with how to be in the world, from masculinity to friendship, and mental health?In this conversation with Professor Niobe Way (NYU developmental psychologist, author of Deep Secrets and Rebels with a Cause), we dug into 40 years of research with adolescents. Her work is extraordinary because she has done something deceptively simple and radically powerful:She listened to teenagers carefully, over time, and took what they said seriously.What emerges is a completely different story about boys, friendship, and mental health than the one most of us have absorbed from culture, headlines, and even psychology textbooks.Professor Niobe WayProf Niobe Way: LinkedInMy early episode in which I referenced Niobe's workIdeas covered in this episodeSupport the showPlease hit the follow button if you like the podcast, and share it with anyone who might benefit. You can review us on Apple podcasts by going to the show page, scrolling down to the bottom where you can click on a star then you can leave your message. Please don't hesitate to seek the advice of a specialist if you're not coping.

Show NotesIn this episode, Simon Western speaks with seasoned psychoanalyst and organisational consultant Dr. Anton Obholzer about the hidden emotional and relational dynamics shaping leadership, organisations and society. Anton is a hugely respected organisational consultant from the Tavistock tradition, and it is a delight to hear his wisdom and insights on this podcast.  Moving beyond technical models of management and mental health, the conversation explores organisations as living systems embedded within wider social and political realities. Anton reflects on the Tavistock tradition, the influence of Eric Miller and the importance of understanding organisations not simply as structures of efficiency, but as emotional containers carrying anxiety, projection, creativity and possibility. Simon and Anton discuss leadership as a protective and generative force, creating the conditions for growth, talent and human flourishing.The dialogue explores the erosion of relational life in contemporary society, the dangers of organisations becoming spaces for unmanaged social anxiety, and the increasing dominance of technological and managerial rationality over human connection. They examine the importance of experiential learning, vulnerability, observation and creative practice in sustaining healthy organisations and societies.At the heart of the episode is a deeper question about how we live together in increasingly uncertain times. Rather than retreating into expertise, certainty or control, Anton calls for greater relational awareness, collective responsibility and societal imagination.Key Reflections Organisations are emotional and societal systems, not simply technical machines Leadership involves creating protective spaces where people and creativity can flourish Psychoanalysis offers ways to understand the hidden dynamics shaping organisational life Relational intelligence matters more than purely technical expertise Organisations often absorb and enact wider societal anxieties and fractures Creativity, art and dialogue are essential to organisational and societal health Experiential learning creates deeper awareness than abstract theory alone Technological advancement risks intensifying alienation and loss of human contact Mental health cannot be separated from political, social and organisational conditions Healthy societies require interdependence, vulnerability and collective responsibility KeywordsPsychoanalysis, Leadership, Organisational Dynamics, Tavistock, Anton Obholzer, Simon Western, Eco-Leadership, Relational Intelligence, Systems Thinking, Emotional Containment, Group Relations, Society, Human Connection, Organisational Culture, Creativity, Vulnerability, Interdependence.Brief BioDr. Anton Obholzer is a psychiatrist, Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, and both a child and adult psychoanalyst, trained at the Tavistock Clinic and the Institute of Psychoanalysis in London. Alongside his clinical work, he trained as an organisational consultant under Eric Miller at the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations, helping pioneer the application of psychoanalytic thinking to organisations, leadership, and institutional life.Until 2002, he served as Chief Executive of the Tavistock & Portman Clinics in London and continues as Chairman of the Consulting to Institutions Workshop and Senior Consultant in the Tavistock Consultancy Service. He has designed and directed group relations and management conferences internationally, and lectures widely on organisational change, leadership, and resistance under conditions of stress and turbulence.A Visiting Professor at the Universities of Vienna, Graz, and Innsbruck, faculty member at INSEAD's Advanced Management Programme, and teacher across Europe, Dr. Obholzer has spent decades exploring the unconscious dynamics that shape organisations - especially when systems are under pressure.He is also the co-editor of the influential book The Unconscious at Work, a seminal text that examines how unconscious anxieties and emotional dynamics operate within organisations and institutions. His writings and publications have profoundly shaped the fields of systems psychodynamics, organisational consultancy, and leadership studies.

Today, Jay Shetty welcomes back Esther Perel to unpack a growing tension in modern relationships: in a world more connected than ever, why so many people feel deeply disconnected. Esther reframes dating struggles as something deeper than love itself, pointing to a broader loss of real-life social practice. Without the everyday interactions that once taught us how to approach, connect, and handle rejection, dating now feels like a high-stakes performance instead of a natural progression. What was once built through play, curiosity, and gradual connection has been compressed into a single moment of pressure, turning love into something overwhelming rather than something we can explore. Jay and Esther explore the illusion of connection in the digital age, where texting replaces talking and screens replace presence. Esther explains how this disembodied way of relating strips away the elements that create real intimacy, like eye contact, tone of voice, touch, and shared energy. While it can feel like we are communicating more, we are often losing depth, nuance, and emotional resonance. This shift has shaped a culture that avoids friction and discomfort, yet still feels more anxious, lonely, and exhausted. In trying to make relationships easier and more efficient, we may be losing the very experiences that give them meaning. In this episode you'll learn: How to Build Real Connection Offline How to Turn Dating Into Discovery, Not Pressure How to Be More Curious Instead of Judgmental How to Create Attraction Through Presence Not Perfection How to Ask for What You Truly Need How to Build Trust in Small, Consistent Moments How to Balance Independence and Interdependence How to Stay Open to Love Without a Checklist If there’s one thing to hold onto, it’s this: nothing about love is broken, you’re just being asked to approach it differently. The world may have made connection feel more complicated, but at its core, it still comes back to showing up, being present, and allowing yourself to be seen without needing to get everything right.

Have you ever said your child, “Don't yell at your brother!” If so, were you yelling? What's happening in a child's body filled with angry is louder than what's going on in their brain. As Christi says in this episode, “Our body sends 10 messages to our brain for every 1 our brain sends to our body.” In other words, our body speaks louder than our brain. So why have we stopped listening to the body? What's actually going in our child's body in their anger? What's happening on our body in our anger? And why, for our children, is loving touch the most powerful way for the body to know “felt safety?”As we close out season 6 on Relational Intelligence in Kids, Christi answers these questions and shares why the body protects our children anytime there is a threat to their connection, belonging, safety, and dignity. She also explains how we as parents can help our kids restore felt safety and why these principles will be an integral part of KidsRQ.Time Stamps:0:00 KidsRQ and body-based tools3:00 Why the body matters for healing5:20 The tripartite God and what it means for us created in His image9:12 How the nervous system and emotions protect children17:47 Relating to our kids on earth as in heaven21:52 Moving emotion through your body25:27 Ways to learn this through Famous at Home Show Notes: Sign up for a free trial of KidsRQ! https://www.kidsrq.com Join KidsRQ at the Founding Members rate: https://www.kidsrq.com Interested in Tender & Fierce?

In this thought-provoking episode of the "Father and Joe" podcast, hosts Father Boniface Hicks and Joe Rockey delve deep into the potential impacts of technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), on human relationships and spiritual life. The conversation builds on the last week's discussion about the encroachment of AI in personal interactions, highlighting the dangers of relying too heavily on technology to connect with others and ourselves.Joe and Father Boniface discuss how AI can create a sense of emptiness in relationships, akin to trying to fill an infinite void with finite substances, which is often how sin manifests. They raise a critical question: When does the artificial relationship, facilitated by AI, feel fulfilling, and when does it leave us longing for more? This episode provides a "litmus test" to help listeners evaluate their interactions with AI—does it enrich their lives, or does it deplete their relational and emotional capacities?Father Boniface introduces insights from a Vatican document, "Antiqua et Nova," emphasizing that AI lacks the intrinsic qualities necessary for genuine human interaction—it has no interiority, intentions, or the capacity to truly care. Despite AI's sophisticated simulation capabilities, it cannot replace the profound depth of embodied human experiences that shape our intellect, morals, and soul.Through the lens of spirituality, the hosts explore the notion that AI, devoid of a soul, cannot nurture our spirituality or contribute to the development of virtues. Joe and Father Boniface urge listeners to critically assess their engagement with technology, ensuring it serves humanity rather than detracts from it.Towards the episode's end, the importance of traditional, interpersonal connection is revisited. In an age where technology often mediates relationships, the hosts stress the enduring necessity of face-to-face interaction for spiritual growth and relationship building.This episode is a call to mindfulness about the roles technology plays in our lives, encouraging continued philosophical inquiry into its ramifications. Joe and Father Boniface affirm the value of questioning and discerning technology's place in supporting human essence—a distinctly relational nature imbued with the divine spark.Tags:AI, Artificial Intelligence, Human Relationships, Technology, Spirituality, Church, Faith, Soul, Relational Growth, Podcast, Father and Joe, Religion, Emptiness, Sin, Vatican, Bible, Antiqua et Nova, Emotional Intelligence, Interpersonal Connection, Moral Discernment, Genuine Care, Spiritual Direction, Relationship Skills, Holiness, Embodied Experience, Humanity, Personal Development, Emotional Fulfillment, Relationship Evaluation, AI Therapists, Technology and Faith, Conversational AI, AI Limitations, Relational Intelligence, AI Impact, Emotional Health, Authentic Connection, Technology Dependence, Friendship, Connection, Spiritual Growth, Meaningful InteractionsHashtags:#AI #ArtificialIntelligence #HumanRelationships #Technology #Spirituality #Church #Faith #Soul #RelationalGrowth #Podcast #FatherAndJoe #Religion #Emptiness #Sin #Vatican #Bible #AntiquaEtNova #EmotionalIntelligence #InterpersonalConnection #MoralDiscernment #GenuineCare #SpiritualDirection #RelationshipSkills #Holiness #EmbodiedExperience #Humanity #PersonalDevelopment #EmotionalFulfillment #RelationshipEvaluation #AITherapists #TechnologyAndFaith #ConversationalAI #AILimitations #RelationalIntelligence #AIImpact #EmotionalHealth #AuthenticConnection #TechnologyDependence #Friendship #Connection #SpiritualGrowth #MeaningfulInteractionsThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

Co-Host Owen Marcus (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/meld) My first-time guest Owen Marcus is a proponent of Polyvagal Theory, which is about how our body and brain work together to respond to stress, be that everyday annoyances or more significant trauma. It has a huge impact on how we as men carry ourselves physically. So you can easily figure out how understanding this theory and the somatic awareness that comes from it would make you more attractive to women. After all, when you gain mastery over your body in the way Owen talks about, your physiology is less likely to, well...sort of betray you. That may sound complex, but Owen describes it all in a way that not only makes perfect sense, but its practical and actionable. For example, this concept finally makes the concept of "emotional availability" more tangible, and even influences how we find ourselves being "Mr. Nice Guy". What is "co-regulation", and why is that social/physical phenomenon central to the whole theory? How does understanding Polyvagal Theory assist us greatly in the quest to make women feel safer and more comfortable with us? What are some physical manifestations of us not being in tune with really feeling what our bodies are telling us? (HINT: A lot of guys make themselves look like dorks without even realizing it.) What does Polyvagal Theory have to do with either you OR her feeling something is just a bit "off"? And how does it finally help us understand what it really means to "relax"? Next, there's fight or flight, or something WAY worse...and we as men do it ALL the time. Meanwhile, how does Polyvagal Theory contribute to being more charismatic? How can it help us not only mesmerize and attract women, but make more male friends as well?

Career success takes a status boost, not a power grab.How do you chart the career course you've always imagined? According to Alison Fragale, it's about gaining influence through status, power, and ultimately, being “a likeable badass.”As a research psychologist, professor, speaker, and author, Fragale is on a mission to help women take control of their careers. In her book Likeable Badass: How Women Get the Success They Deserve, she argues that most people have it backwards when pursuing career advancement. "We have talked for a long time [about] getting more power," she explains. However, by focusing first on achieving status (how respected we are), power will often come as a natural byproduct. "If you pursue status before, or at least alongside power, everything is going to fall into place," she says. “Status makes power a lot easier to achieve, and it makes power a lot easier to use.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, hosted by executive producer Jenny Luna, Fragale explores the communication strategies of a likeable badass, from building warmth and assertiveness to authentically connecting with colleagues. Whether you're building relationships in a new company or have been leading one for years, Fragale's insights will help you command respect while communicating with kindness.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premiumEpisode Reference Links:Alison FragaleAlison's Book: Likeable BadassJenny LunaEp.12 It's Not What You Say, It's How You Say It: How To Communicate PowerEp.15 The Art of Negotiation: How to Get More of What You Want  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:21) - Defining Power and Status (05:26) - Why Status Comes Before Power (06:19) - Communication Techniques to Build Status (09:27) - Evaluating Your Habits: Nonverbal and Verbal Cues (11:21) - Mentorship in Developing Communication (13:13) - Adapting to a New Work Culture (18:41) - Representing Difference Without Distance (19:49) - Overcoming Bad First Impressions (21:47) - The Final Three Question (25:32) - Conclusion    *****This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

Part 1 of Relational Intelligence As An Act of Spiritual Resistance

Relationships have long been recognized as a catalyst of learning; changing our focus away from a solely child-centric model of education to relationship-centered thinking may prove to be the key to success.  Isabelle Hau, Executive Director of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning, joins us to talk about her new book Love to Learn: The Transformative Power of Care and Connection in Early Education, and the concept of "Relational Intelligence".

Isabelle Hau, author of "Love to Learn" and Executive Director of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning, joins Patrick McGinnis on FOMO Sapiens to discuss the critical importance of relational intelligence (RQ) in child development. Hau, who overcame early assessments of low academic aptitude, emphasizes the need for nurturing relationships and free play to counteract the relational deprivation crisis affecting children today. She highlights the impact of smaller families, reduced play time, and excessive technology use on children's social and emotional development. Hau advocates for "relational tech" over "junk tech" and stresses the importance of fostering a love for learning through play and human connection. She also provides insights for entrepreneurs in the education space, emphasizing the unprecedented opportunities for innovation in learning due to advancements in data, brain science, technology, and evolving educational needs.

Isabelle Hau, author of the book, Love to Learn: The Transformative Power of Care and Connection in Early Childhood, joins Mike Palmer in a conversation about the importance of relationships in early education and what it means to our understanding of intelligence and human development. Hau highlights the concept of “relational intelligence” or “RQ” and its increasing importance in a world dominated by artificial intelligence. Isabelle is the Executive Director of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning. The two discuss the role of parents, and the give and take of "serve-and-return" interactions with early learners in fostering relational intelligence and building synaptic connections early in life. Hau emphasizes the importance of play in early childhood development and offers advice for parents on how to encourage healthy social and emotional growth in their children while avoiding the risks of over-parenting and over-structuring children's lives. Key takeaways from the episode include: Relational intelligence (RQ) is a critical skill that is becoming increasingly important in a world dominated by artificial intelligence. RQ is developed through early childhood experiences, particularly through interactions with parents and caregivers. Parents can foster RQ in their children by being present and engaged with them, and by providing opportunities for unstructured play. RQ is not just important for early childhood development, but for success throughout life. Subscribe to Trending in Ed wherever you get your podcasts! Visit us at TrendinginEd.com for more.
