Send me a text! I'd love to know what you're thinking!This conversation reflects on the urgent need for genuine transformation in the church, rather than simply tweaking what isn't working. Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson explore the signs that point to deeper issues—like plateauing membership, aging congregations, and stagnating giving—and why now is the time for a true “hero's journey” of change, not just rearranging the chairs on the Titanic.Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Rex Miller in Ep. 254: Digital Disruption and the Future of the Church:"There are some telltale signs that it's time to go on a hero's journey. One telltale sign is we're plateauing in our membership. Or our members are getting older.  Or our giving is plateauing. Now is not the time to try to rearrange the chairs on the Titanic.”THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Church leaders recognize critical signs—like plateauing membership, aging congregations, and stagnant giving—that indicate the need for deep transformation.Leaders create only superficial change when they settle for “rearranging the chairs on the Titanic” instead of tackling the root issues.Effective leadership requires admitting when you don't know what to do and being willing to learn all over again.Leaders lose key, healthy members when they make ministry primarily about themselves rather than about something greater.Transformation happens when leaders embrace adaptive change, let go of their expertise, and journey into new ways of leading.Click HERE to get my FREE online course, BECOMING LEADERS OF SHALOM.

Mike Petrusky asks Rex about their recent time together in Dallas at the IFMA / CoreNet North Texas Tech Symposium where they shared some of the challenges facing workplace leaders in 2025 and explored how the industry needs to shift its focus from technical skills to human and leadership skills. There's a lack of emphasis on curiosity, experimentation, and building stakeholder coalitions, so Rex shares his insights about workplace culture and how companies can understand the new attitudes, habits, values, and behaviors of their employees. Leadership is about influence, not positional power, so facility managers and corporate real estate professionals can lead by using their influence.

Sandra, a seasoned professional in creativity, imagination, and innovation, shares her mission: to create a world where everyone's unique creative genius is shared and respected, regardless of age, education, or perceived abilities. Sandra shares techniques to make profound wisdom accessible through deceptively simple strategies. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Sandra introduces the concept of "Present Moment Thinking" and how it forms the basis of improvisation techniques. Life, Sandra asserts, is a 24/7 improvisation, where individuals are constantly making, accepting, or blocking offers. The goal is to offer, accept, and avoid blocking to live fearlessly in the present moment. Sandra expands on this concept, emphasizing that we all have 100% response-ability for our lives. This isn't about blame or fault but understanding our ability to respond to and shape our experiences. Sandra reminds us that we are conscious creators of our own stories. She beautifully weaves the metaphor of theater into life, where we play the character, act as the player, and serve as the playwright. Every experience, consciously designed or not, is part of our unique story. This podcast episode is not just an interview; it's a journey into the depths of creativity, improvisation, and the recognition of the brilliance within each of us.

His experiences breathe life into discussions on major capital projects and the fine-tuning of workspaces, while his Resilience Lab podcast shines a spotlight on the diverse aspects of resilience in our lives. The stories shared are a testament to Rex's rich industry background, resonating with the complexities and challenges of modern times.Ever wondered how crises can spark innovation? That's what we explore next, as Rex takes us through the crisis that led to Genius Spark after the dot-com crash and how the Clifton Strengths assessment helped reclaim his innate talents. We probe into the concerning drop in our imaginative prowess as adults compared to our childhood selves, and why living authentically matters profoundly. Our conversation weaves through the essence of performance science and the elite mental strategies that can be harnessed to cultivate everyday genius, with Genius Spark software standing as a testament to integrating these powerhouses into daily life.The episode rounds out with a deep dive into the art of self-improvement and the potency of small, consistent advancements, drawing parallels from the UK cycling team's rise to prominence. As a certified tennis professional, I bring my own insights into the conversation, showing how such principles transcend sports and apply broadly across professional landscapes. We also tap into the rich vein of personal strengths, decoding how Gallup's color-coded categories unravel traits like trust and authenticity to forge successful relationships and leadership. Building a persona of strengths isn't just theory; it's about piecing together the puzzle of your natural talents to navigate life with finesse and influence.Connect with Rex:Rex MillerThe Resilience Lab PodcastEmail | Instagram | LinkedInYouTubeConnect with Sid: www.sidmeadows.comEmbark CCT on FacebookSid on LinkedInSid on InstagramSid on YouTubeSid on Clubhouse - @sidmeadows The Trend Report introduction music is provided by Werq by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4616-werq License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
