Podcasts about Resignation

How can our attitude affect our decision-making? The Federal Aviation Agency in the US has identified five specific attitudes that are present in airline accidents when human error is the cause of the crash or mishap. They have labeled these attitudes, the five hazardous attitudes.These attitudes are anti-authority, invulnerability, impulsivity, macho, and resignation. Each of these attitudes can negatively impact our judgement on a sub-conscious level, meaning we may not be aware of their presence.In this episode of Delivering Adventure, Geoff Powter joins Chris and Jordy to discuss what the five hazardous attitudes are and how we can recognize them in ourselves and others.Geoff Powter is a retired psychologist, an experienced climber, writer, and adventurer from the Canadian Rockies. He served as editor of the Canadian Alpine Journal for 13 years and has won 9 National Magazine Awards.Geoff has authored several books, including Strange and Dangerous Dreams, which won the Jury Prize at the 2006 Banff Mountain Book Festival and was adapted into a radio series. His second most recent book, Inner Ranges, won the Climbing Literature Prize at the Banff Festival in 2019 and the National Outdoor Book Award in the USA. His most recent book Survival Is Not Assured: The Life of Climber Jim Donini, is the Winner of National Outdoor Book Award in the USA.In this episode, Geoff uses his deep knowledge of phycology and risk taking to help us to better understand the five hazardous attitudes. This is the first of two episodes focussing on how we can recognize and manage these specific human factors.This is another must listen to episode for anyone who wants to better understand decision making and risk taking.Key TakeawaysAnti-authority Attitude: This is the “don't tell me what to do,” mindset.Recognizing this in ourselves requires us to really question whether our decisions are being made because of our ego and the need to push back on being told what to do. Or is our judgment being influenced by reasoned self-confidence?Impulsivity Attitude: This is the “do it quickly,” mindset. We can spot this by looking to see if we are skipping steps that we either would normally do or know we should be doing. Also, asking ourselves if we do really need to rush and involving others in discussions can be very beneficial in spotting this in ourselves.Impulsivity is the one attitude that can cause us to move into situations faster which can push us into the hazard zone more quickly.Invulnerability Attitude: This is the “It won't happen to me,” mindset. Invulnerability affects our ability to objectively assess the probability and consequence of taking risks.Spotting invulnerability requires us to be very aware of whether we really believe that a bad outcome can happen to us.Macho Attitude: This is the “I can do it,” mentality. The challenge with Macho is that it can cause us to become overconfident. As Geoff pointed out, there is also no macha attitude meaning that the macho attitude is more of a male dominated attitude.Resignation Attitude: This is the “what's the use,” mentality. This is the attitude that can cause us to believe that there is nothing that we can do to prevent bad outcomes. This can leave us feeling resigned to fate. This can cause people to go along with what the group says, even if a person feels the group may be wrong.Resignation attitude can happen when we don't care or we don't trust our judgment. It can also happen when we feel helpless or we are not being heard.Guest BioGeoff is a retired psychologist, an experienced climber, writer, and adventurer from the Canadian Rockies.

#178 20世紀の日本では、仕事が簡単に辞めれないことがよくありました。ただし、2025年現在でも、その古い職場文化が一部の企業に残っており、仕事を辞めたくても様々な理由で、会社側から辞めれないと言われたことがあります。そこで、最近では、「退職代行」サービスがはやっており、辞めれない人の代わりに企業と交渉して退職までに対応します。今回は、このサービスと日本の職場文化についてお話します。In 20th-century Japan, it was often difficult to quit a job easily. However, even as of 2025, this old workplace culture is still remain in some companies. People who want to quit have been told by their employers that they cannot leave for various reasons. Consequently, “resignation agency” services have recently become popular. These agencies negotiate with companies on behalf of those unable to quit, handling the process until resignation is finalized. In this episode, we'll discuss this service and Japan's workplace culture.↓↓番組についての感想や話してほしいトピックがあれば、こちらまで↓↓Email: ernestnaoya1994@gmail.com↑↑ Share your thoughts and request to us↑↑個人SNS / Personal Social Media ACErnest's Instagram: @ernest_mkcNaoya's Instagram: @japanese_teacher_n

The resignation of Netball New Zealand CEO Jennie Wyllie had to happen. That's the view of former New Zealand men's netball skipper and commentator Kruze Tangira. Tangira told Heather du Plessis-Allan he believes the drama around the standing down then reinstatement of head coach Dame Noeline Taurua has plagued the year. He says it started all the way back in January at the Sydney training camp, and it's taken until December for there to be a real resolution. It was unfortunate that Taurua had to lose her job and have her name tarnished in the process, Tangira told du Plessis-Allan, but change needed to happen in order to rebuild the reputation of netball within New Zealand.

The Trump administration's “deferred resignation program” this year led to more than 150,000 employees leaving their jobs, in exchange for months of paid leave. But for many of those who took the DRP, the offer came with an added opportunity. Thousands also qualified for early retirement. Federal News Network's Drew Friedman spent the last several months conducting interviews, reviewing documents, and gathering data about federal retirement processing. She found that the DRP helped lead to a massive and unexpected surge in applications, now inundating the government's retirement systems.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In unserer letzten Folge vor unserer Winterpause geht es um eine der schlimmsten Brandkatastrophen in der Geschichte Hongkongs. Mehr als 160 Menschen sterben. Wer Aufklärung fordert, wird festgenommen. Gleichzeitig bleibt eine Parlamentswahl fast unbeachtet – viele gehen gar nicht erst wählen. Hongkong ist eine Stadt im Ausnahmezustand. Seit Jahren schwankt die Sonderverwaltungsregion zwischen Wut, Resignation und politischer Kontrolle. Das Nationale Sicherheitsgesetz von 2020 hat den Spielraum für Kritik drastisch eingeschränkt: Freiheitsaktivisten sitzen im Gefängnis, pro-demokratische Parteien, unabhängige Medien und NGOs haben aufgegeben. Die Demokratiebewegung gilt als weitgehend zerschlagen. Doch was bedeutet das heute konkret? Wie viel Freiheit und Zivilgesellschaft sind in Hongkong noch übrig? Und wie sehr hat sich die Stadt in den vergangenen Jahren verändert? Darüber spricht Host Axel Dorloff mit ARD-China-Korrespondentin Eva Lamby-Schmitt und mit Amy Siu, Aktivistin bei "Freiheit für Hongkong e.V." in der neuen Folge von "Welt.Macht.China". "Welt.Macht.China" ist der China-Podcast der ARD. Aktuelle und ehemalige Korrespondent*innen und Expert*innen haben sich zusammengetan, um einen vielfältigen Einblick zu geben in das riesige Land. Es geht um Politik, Wirtschaft, Kultur, das Leben und den Alltag in der Volksrepublik, außerdem um Klischees und Chinas Rolle in der Welt.

Brady Lowe is a connector, educator, and experience-maker who founded Taste Network and the nonprofit Piggy Bank, spending more than two decades building unforgettable collaborations between chefs, farmers, hotels, and brands. Through his Next 10 coaching and accelerator hub, Brady helps hospitality founders design smarter events, deeper guest relationships, and sustainable revenue with a focus on pairings, playbooks, and pre-visit engagement. Susan and Brady chat during this special in-person episode, recorded at The Pub at EAV. • How to use Facebook groups, comments, and DMs to attract sports fans and turn them into faithful regulars • Why "11 to 35 micro-interactions" often have to happen before a guest spends a dollar with you • Ways to make your social media as personal and welcoming as your host stand or bar top • The origin story of Taste Network and how a single wine-and-cheese pairing can shape an entire career • How to think about guest engagement as "relationship currency" that carries your brand through tough times • What a strong pre-visit engagement sequence looks like for restaurants, hotels, and bars • Practical examples of surprise-and-delight moments that guests can replicate at home and rave about for months • How to turn recipes, rituals, and house favorites into high-value digital giveaways that build your email list • Why most hospitality social media fails (and what to ask your social media person about actual revenue) • How to download your Instagram data and use AI to audit what's working and who your real audience is • What to expect from the 2026 World Cup in terms of premium experiences, demand, and guest expectations • The key non-negotiables Brady uses to design memorable F&B experiences: surprise, emotional sequencing, and human connection *** Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Engagement before the visit is the new battleground for hospitality success. Brady argues that guest engagement must begin long before someone walks through the door. Restaurants and hotels should treat Instagram and their websites as extensions of the front door—places where you start building relationship equity. A simple "hello," a thoughtful comment, or an acknowledgment of someone's interaction can fundamentally shift how guests perceive your brand once they arrive. Most brands post but don't connect, and that is the biggest miss today. 2. Hospitality operators need training, tools, and intentionality around social media—and most don't have it. He's adamant that restaurants and hotels rarely train their teams to engage digitally. Social media isn't just a marketing channel; it's a hospitality channel. He encourages leaders to audit their digital presence, use tools like ChatGPT to evaluate Instagram data, create value-focused lead magnets (recipes, techniques, guides), and measure whether social efforts actually drive revenue. Without this skill set, the business model is incomplete. 3. First-time "transformational moments" are at the heart of memorable hospitality. From his earliest career epiphany—watching a guest have a life-changing food experience—to building Taste Network and Next 10, Brady centers everything around delivering unforgettable moments. His non-negotiables: surprise, carefully sequenced emotional storytelling, and genuine human connection. These principles apply whether you're designing an event, launching a restaurant, or building community—and they're key to earning loyalty and sustaining brands through peaks and valleys.

Yes Harrison Mann, one of the first military and government members to resign over the US support of Israel's genocide in Gaza.   He takes us back to explain why he was one of the first; why it did not take long to know that our policy, the Biden policy was wrong.  However, now as Associate Director for Campaigns and Policy at Win Without War he is ramping up his activism.  He talks about Ukraine, Venezuela, illegal orders, National Guard in our cities and what to do if you are in the military and are having second thoughts.  In other words he just scratched the surface of what he and Win Without War are involved in.  winwithoutwar.org.

This episode also explores the manipulation of social media platforms by foreign entities, the controversial endorsement by Trump in Miami's mayoral race, and a humorous analysis of Trump Vodka and the potential upcoming Trump Phone. The show wraps up with a talk on homelessness, Japanese internet memes about America's fentanyl crisis, and the idea of arming the homeless with machetes.

This week’s episode of The Chuck ToddCast dives into the full spectrum of Donald Trump’s political chaos — from a deadly Venezuela boat strike that jolted Congress awake to an explosive shooting in Washington, D.C., where Trump delivered the most divisive response imaginable. Chuck breaks down how the shooter’s surprising CIA ties, Trump’s immediate “blame game,” and his increasingly politicized rhetoric toward the military risk putting service members in harm’s way. He examines Trump’s contradictory foreign policy moves, including pardoning a cocaine-trafficking former Honduran president and a billionaire fraudster, all while saber-rattling toward Venezuela and relying on Roger Stone as his unofficial “pardon broker.” With Republicans bracing for a wave of resignations and watchdog committees gearing up for investigations, Chuck argues that the founders never intended the pardon power to be used this way — and that a constitutional fix may now be essential. Then, editor of The Dispatch, Sarah Isgur joins Chuck for a sweeping conversation about the Supreme Court, constitutional design, and the modern dysfunction of Congress. Sarah argues that SCOTUS is the only institution still operating as the founders intended—and with two major cases on the docket, the Court could soon reshape the balance of power between the executive and legislative branches. She and Chuck examine how the activist class has abandoned Congress, why long-term challenges like climate change require legislation rather than court battles, and how a dramatically expanded House—potentially 1,200 members or more—could restore true representation. They dig into how the collapse of traditional parties, the rise of communications-focused lawmakers, and the outsize influence of small states have all warped American governance. The conversation then widens into history, culture, and political “what-ifs”—from Ken Burns’ Revolutionary War documentary to the chaotic post-Lincoln era, to the tantalizing possibility that a surviving President Garfield might have accelerated civil rights by a century. Chuck and Sarah compare Obama to Chester Arthur, debate whether Democrats learned the wrong lessons from Trump, and revisit the alternate timelines of Chris Christie, Carly Fiorina, and the Tea Party. They close with a provocative question: Should the DOJ be structurally separated from the executive branch? And, more fundamentally, should it be far easier to amend the Constitution for a modern nation of 300 million people? Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to December 7th, 1941 when FDR addressed the nation via radio after Pearl Harbor, and traces the history of media fragmentation throughout the decades. He also answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and gives his college football update. Go to https://getsoul.com & enter code TODDCAST for 30% off your first order.

In this fast-paced post-Thanksgiving episode, Ghost kicks things off by delivering the rants left over from Tuesday's interrupted show before diving straight into global turbulence. He unpacks audience boosts, Monty Python jokes, oil economics in Venezuela and Ghana, and viewer updates from abroad, casually weaving in Middle Eastern geopolitics and Russian-aligned narratives. From Hillary Clinton and Skolkovo to Medvedev's tech ambitions, Brain-Drain Russia, and the purges shaping Putin's power structure, Ghost explores how these dynamics mirror what's unfolding in Ukraine. He then zooms in on Zelensky's internal collapse, mass resignations, corruption raids, and doubts about Kyiv's legitimacy, all while Trump's peace-deal pressure campaign intensifies behind the scenes. Bringing his trademark humor, receipts, and geopolitical mind-mapping, Ghost ties together Ukraine, MBS, Qatar, and CIA fingerprints across global destabilization efforts. It's classic Geopolitics with Ghost: rants, receipts, and a gritty walk through the realignment underway across the world.

Tonight we're diving into a wild week in American politics. MTG's sudden resignation sets off a storm, Candace Owens says her life has been threatened, and Chuck Grassley doubles down on being pro-pesticide—because why not? Oh, and Ted Cruz got boo'd clean off a stage. We'll break it all down, connect the dots, and talk about what this says about the moment we're living in. Buckle up.

Pam Bondi just suffered another loss in the courts with the cases against James Comey and Letitia James getting dismissed. What does the appeals process look like and will Bondi even get a second chance? This comes as rumors fly that early resignations could cost Republicans their House majority sooner than you think.

There's no two ways about it — Marjorie Taylor Greene's resignation came as a shock. She's leaving Congress at the start of the year, which means Republicans will immediately lose a vote they absolutely cannot spare. Governor Brian Kemp now has to call a special election, and even if he moves at the fastest pace legally possible, Georgia's replacement likely won't arrive until April or May. At that point we're deep into a cycle where dozens of House Republicans are juggling competitive reelection campaigns, statewide ambitions or both. Losing a seat now isn't a problem; losing a seat during the most politically fragile stretch of the year is a crisis.The fascinating part is how we got here. Greene was once one of Trump's fiercest and most loyal defenders, a political brawler who generated attention, small-dollar fundraising and cable hits. Her real institutional power, however, came from her alliance with Kevin McCarthy. When McCarthy fell, Greene's entire support structure collapsed with him. She wasn't able to transfer that leverage to Speaker Mike Johnson. In fact, her attempt to oust Johnson failed so publicly that it effectively isolated her. Add to that the now-infamous Tony Fabrizio polling memo — sent from the inside of Trumpworld directly to Greene herself — telling her she couldn't win statewide, and suddenly the relationship that once powered her rise curdled into animosity. Once Trump's giving you mean nicknames on a Truth Social post, it's pretty clear your days inside the tent are over.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.In the past few weeks, Greene has been everywhere—Real Time, The View, CNN—adopting a noticeably softer tone about political adversaries, including Nancy Pelosi. None of that happens by accident. And while no one close to her has confirmed anything, I can't shake the sense that she's plotting a pivot toward statewide office. The national rebrand won't work; she's too defined. But in a state like Georgia, where the Republican base still views her as a heroine and suburban women remain the barrier to statewide wins, maybe she sees a narrow path for a remade persona. Insiders I've spoken with don't think it's likely — but nobody dismisses it out of hand. After all, Georgia politics has delivered plenty of stranger twists than Marjorie Taylor Greene trying to run as a kinder, gentler insurgent.A Bad Week for DOJ: Sloppy Cases, Angry Allies and a Political CostWhile Greene was calculating her next chapter, the Trump administration's Department of Justice was stumbling through one of its most humiliating stretches since the start of the second term. Two high-profile cases—one targeting James Comey and another targeting New York Attorney General Letitia James—fell apart in spectacular fashion. The Comey case wasn't dismissed on a technicality; it was thrown out because the Department of Justice may not have even properly secured a grand jury indictment. Not good. And because of how the dismissal occurred, the case cannot be refiled. Comey is permanently in the clear. The Letitia James case was dismissed for different reasons, and that one can theoretically return — but in practice, it's now damaged and politically radioactive.Look. These cases were clearly pushed at the direction of Donald Trump himself. He said the quiet part out loud on Truth Social, publicly urging prosecutions of Comey, James and Adam Schiff before deleting the message. Trump wanted consequences for people he sees as political enemies. But wanting something and executing it competently are two very different things. And what happened here wasn't just sloppy — it undercut the credibility of his claim to be the only person who can “clean up the system.” If you're promising a more efficient, more disciplined government, you cannot afford your Justice Department to mishandle prosecutions this badly.This is also where the political costs begin to show. Punchbowl reported this week that Greene's resignation has other Republicans eyeing the exits. I've heard similar grumbling from people close to MAGA-aligned lawmakers: they feel neglected by the White House, shut out of decision-making, and deprived of the small wins that normally help hold a caucus together. On issues like Venezuela, they simply want explanations — and aren't getting them. Add the DOJ fiasco on top, and you have a governing coalition that increasingly feels taken for granted. The math is brutal: Republicans are two retirements away from losing the House majority outright. No one thinks a mass exodus is imminent, but the fact that the scenario has become a topic of conversation tells you how fragile the coalition is.The bottom line: if the Trump administration wants to restore confidence — inside the party and beyond — it can't afford more weeks like this. Competence matters. And right now, the DOJ is delivering the exact opposite.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:10 - Marjorie Taylor Greene00:11:02 - Rush Hour 4 (seriously)00:11:44 - DOJ's Bad Day00:16:38 - Are the Republicans in Trouble?00:19:39 - 2028 Picks with Gloria Young01:03:30 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

In Episode 104 of The Kershner Files, Dave provides some updates regarding new shows on CRN before he discusses a number of current event topics that provides evidence of chinks in the Team Trump armor. First up is the MTG resignation and potential ties to George Soros. But that's not all… apparently there is a great deal of frustration in Congress with the Trump administration and it could lead to more resignations and a possible loss of the House in the midterm elections. Dave then reviews Barrasso's commentary regarding the need to keep the filibuster.

The political world is on fire — and we're breaking it all down. Marjorie Taylor Greene's shocking resignation announcement has rocked Washington, raising questions about loyalty, strategy, and her future political ambitions. Why now? And what does this mean for Trump, Congress, and the GOP?In this episode, Gene Valentino joins a powerhouse panel to break down: 

It is a momentous occasion when Judson wears an entirely black outfit. Brian takes his family to the fantastic new revival of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee off-Broadway, where his daughter joins the cast for the afternoon. Judson crowdsources an internship for a new friend he met by chance over ramen. The Hookup of the Week comes from a sub who finds a deeper connection with one of his regular Doms. The two are then joined by Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, former director of the CDC's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases before his fiery resignation this summer. Having also served as the CDC's Director of HIV Prevention, the White House's Deputy Coordinator of the National Monkeypox Response in 2022-2023, and the Deputy Commissioner of NYC's Department of Health, Dr. Daskalakis brings an incredible wealth of knowledge, experience, stories and sexy Daddy energy to the Dads and Daddies studio. Dr. Demetre speaks with Brian and Judson about his resignation from the CDC this summer and the hostile takeover of the organization by RFK Jr., being dubbed “Dr. Daddy” by legendary nightlife impresario Susanne Bartsch, his days on the front lines testing for HIV in NYC's bathhouses and sex clubs, the origin and evolution of his 14-year relationship with his husband Michael, their imminent move back to New York, the meaning behind his tattoos, the love of Madonna concerts he shares with Brian, and his intolerance of bullies instilled by his father that has made him the fighter he is today. He then joins Brian and Judson for a mini Go Ask Your Dad Extravaganza, tackling three listener-submitted questions about communicating when one tests positive for an STI, conquering a debilitating fear of HIV, and handling the discovery of an open sore during an anonymous sex encounter.
