What happens when leadership, military service, and motherhood collide with a mission for change? Dr. Ellen Joan Ford didn't set out to become a thought leader—she became one by accident, driven by action. A former army officer, academic, and founder of Belonging, Autonomy and Purpose Leadership, Ellen first spoke about the challenges of working parents as a small part of a leadership talk. But that minor moment struck a nerve—and sparked a tidal wave. Strangers reached out. Stories poured in. And suddenly, Ellen was leading a movement. That movement became #WorkSchoolHours, a principles-based approach to workplace redesign. Through a TEDx talk, a book, and ongoing advocacy, Ellen challenges leaders to reconsider the structure of work—not just for productivity, but for humanity. Her research began informally, collecting real stories from overwhelmed parents, but it soon evolved into a mission grounded in compassion and backed by data. Ellen's leadership philosophy is shaped by three defining moments: serving in the military, becoming a parent, and helping evacuate Afghans to safety. Each began with getting "pissed off" enough to act—and that same passion drives her thought leadership today. But she's not just collecting stories anymore. She's implementing solutions. In this episode, we explore how passion becomes platform, how impact is scaled through persistence, and how thought leadership can evolve from lived experience. If you've ever wondered how to turn a personal challenge into systemic change, this conversation will show you what's possible. Three Key Takeaways: • Big impact often starts small. Ellen didn't set out to lead a movement—she simply mentioned the challenges of working parents in a leadership talk. That small moment resonated deeply, leading to thousands of unsolicited stories and the creation of the #WorkSchoolHours platform. • Thought leadership is fueled by personal experience and action. Ellen's credibility and influence stem from her lived experiences: leading in the military, becoming a parent, and coordinating a massive humanitarian effort. Her thought leadership emerged not from theory alone, but from taking action when she saw problems that needed solving. • Change begins when someone gets “pissed off enough to act.” Whether improving military leadership, reshaping workplace norms, or saving lives, Ellen demonstrates that passion, combined with persistence and a clear purpose, can spark real-world impact—even on systems as entrenched as the modern workplace. If this conversation sparked your interest in how empathy and personal experience can fuel workplace transformation, don't miss our earlier episode with Scott Shute, former Head of Mindfulness and Compassion Programs at LinkedIn. Like Ellen Joan Ford, Scott turned personal conviction into a platform for change—advocating for compassion as a strategic business imperative. Together, these episodes offer a powerful look at how thought leadership can humanize work and reshape what leadership looks like in today's world.

Scott Shute is a keynote speaker, coach, executive, and author whose work combines the knowledge of  ancient philosophical teaching with the practicality of work. Scott blends his lifelong practice and passion with his practical leadership and operations experience.   His mission is to change work from the inside out by “mainstreaming mindfulness” and “operationalizing compassion”. He put that mission into practice in his previous role as Head of Mindfulness and Compassion at LinkedIn, as well as putting it to paper in his 2021 book ‘The Full Body Yes: Change Your Work and Your World from the Inside Out'.  

Learn more about Scott at:Scott Shute(1) Scott Shute | LinkedInIn Scott's Own words: "Most of us have been climbing the wrong mountain, and sometimes it seems like the harder we climb, the further we rise, the less we have. On my journey through life, I've always felt the pull of two worlds. On one hand, the life of technical, for the operational. On the other, the life of a seeker, with the feeling of a deep connection to something bigger than myself. These two worlds fueled a question how can we be successful at work and also be a good person? With my exploration of this question, I have strived to change work, (and the world) from the inside out.

What does it mean to be truly compassionate? It's anything but a new concept, yet we continue to be baffled when we hear the term used in the workplace. Scott Shute, author of “The Full Body Yes”, believes the most powerful way to build a business is to root it in compassion. By finding a meaningful connection to his work, Scott was able to operationalize compassion and create a culture of inclusivity. In this episode, Scott discusses the need for giving and receiving love and how changing your perspective can revolutionize your emotional health.

How can you unite your work life and your “real life” and show up as your authentic self at all times? How can we use tools like mindfulness to transform work from the inside out? These are questions that Coaching.com CEO Alex Pascal discusses with Scott Shute in this episode of Coaches on Zoom Drinking Coffee.Scott is the author of The Full Body Yes: Change Your Work and Your World from the Inside Out, and he shares his experience of writing a book in this episode. He also presents his belief that cultivating compassion is key to transforming the workplace, which he applied in practice while working as Head of Mindfulness and Compassion Programs at LinkedIn. These days, the science of mindfulness is fairly well known: the business world is aware that regular mindfulness practice rewires the brain, increasing its capacity for concentration and improving decision-making abilities. However, actually integrating this practice into an organization's operations is another challenge, one that Scott reflects on in this episode.Scott and Alex also take some time to analyze the relationship between mindfulness, spirituality, and religion, discussing how the same tools that a minority uses to achieve enlightenment can be used by the majority to obtain more everyday objectives, whatever their belief system. During these volatile times, we often find ourselves wondering what we personally can do to make the world a better place. Scott has an answer to that question - to focus on “being,” rather than “doing”. Listen in to find out more!

Mindfulness, Scott explains, is another way of saying we need to develop ourselves and our self-awareness. Similarly, employers need compassion because we don't work or live in isolation. Scott quotes research showing companies that recognize their employees are their most valuable resource — and change the workplace from the inside out — can be 14 times more profitable than those that don't. So if you want to know:– How it's possible to mainstream mindfulness and operationalize compassion– Why, when we take care of everybody — employees, customers and shareholders — all of us benefit– That compassion isn't soft but actually takes courage– Why you can't wait for your organization to bring mindfulness and compassion to you — you need to bring it to your organization– How to replace the “dirty escalation” with the “clean resolution” About Scott ShuteAfter 25 years of customer-oriented leadership and three years of leading mindfulness and compassion programs at LinkedIn, Scott Shute now helps other leaders and companies transform so they become more compassionate and effective. A keynote speaker, author, executive coach and teacher, Scott combines the practicalities of leading in the modern business world with the wisdom of ancient traditions to help individuals and companies be leaders in “conscious business.” He is the author of The Full Body YES, a 2022 Nautilus Award winning book that explores how to change your work and your world from the inside out.

The majority of us have been ascending the wrong mountain, and at times it appears as though the higher we climb, the less we have. We continue to strive for higher heights and happiness, but there is always a question of whether we are heading on the correct route. If you've ever wondered, “How am I supposed to be a good person while still performing well at work?” this episode is for you. Today's guest on the Pursuit of Learning podcast, Scott Shut, specializes in integrating the reality of modern business leadership with the wisdom of ancient traditions to aid individuals and enterprises in becoming conscious business leaders. He is an author, keynote speaker, executive coach, and educator.After 25 years in customer-focused leadership and executive roles and three years directing LinkedIn's Mindfulness and Compassion programs, Scott is now assisting other leaders and organizations in transforming into more compassionate and effective organizations. In addition, he works with executives who want to make a positive difference in the world while thriving their organizations and people, which allows him to apply his whole skill set, expertise, and passions. Since Scott was thirteen years old, he has been studying and practicing mindfulness and has been affiliated with wisdom teachings since he was in college. He examines the notion of human potential in this work, assisting employees in becoming the finest versions of themselves. During today's uplifting discussion, Scott demonstrates how our thinking influences our level of pleasure and contentment in life. Also, the last two years have seen “The Great Awakening” in our approach to work. Employees now recognize that their health and relationships are the two most crucial components of their existence.

Too often we've been told that the workplace is an arena of competition, a zero-sum game where the strong thrive and the rest barely survive. If we're going to reconsider anything, it's hard to imagine a better place to start than this outdated, outmoded, and destructive model of the workplace. In this episode, Scott Shute, the former Head of Mindfulness and Compassion at LinkedIn and the author of the book, “The Full Body Yes”, shares stories and insights from his experience leading a large-scale mindfulness initiative at a major corporation. We'll also learn about the power of compassion and hear some of his insights about how to start following our own path rather than being buffeted about by the demands and expectations of others.

Take the class that builds your skill or take on an additional project of work. If you really want it, take the project from that leader that you want to work with.  And over time it'll just become obvious.” “It's a recognition and an acceptance of where I am today and a desire to move forward.” “I was following that inner desire of ‘I've got to do something different and no matter what I want my job to be more of this stuff.'” “Work can actually be a place that helps us heal if we do it right.” “I see compassionate leadership in the everyday work of people who do kind things for each other. Those who moved from ‘me to we' in their thinking.”

Scott is a keynote speaker, author, executive coach, and teacher. "Have you ever wondered "How can I be a good person and also do well at work?" I specialize in combining the practicalities of leading in the modern business world with the wisdom of ancient traditions to help individuals and companies be leaders in conscious business. This results in businesses thriving financially while providing their customer's long-term value and leaving employees feeling inspired and whole.

Workers have more rights than maybe they've ever harnessed as a collective, and it's shaping the way leaders lead. We're starting to see the research bear out that when we move away from leading by power, into leading with emotional intelligence, that this is actually a way to build a more successful company, a more successful team, and it's a way to be more successful as a person.Scott Shute is the Head of the Compassion and Mindfulness Programs at LinkedIn, and the author of The Full Body Yes: Change Your Work And Your World From The Inside Out.This episode focuses on mindfulness and compassion, Scott's upbringing in rural Kansas, work as religion, and why haven't we been talking about this stuff all along.Episode Quotes:How do you define compassion:[00:03:39] The first part is having an awareness for the other person. The second part is having a mindset of kindness towards them, or a mindset of wishing the best for them. And then the third part is the courage to take action on their behalf. Now this works for our employees, it also works for our customers. What has changed about labor to bring us to this moment:[00:07:04] We've evolved in consciousness and our labor markets have changed. The two things have fit together. By being a good person, I can actually deliver better results for my company and be personally more fulfilled, but also help other people be personally more fulfilled. So it's a little bit of a golden age in work. The importance of feedback:[00:27:38] One of the beauties of getting older is that we see all the mistakes and we've been through enough cycles to see what went well and what didn't go well. And as a leader, that's super helpful because then we can help guide people that are younger or have less cycles of experience. In terms of getting feedback, when we are more comfortable in our own skin, we're not so worried about what everybody else says. It's interesting because then it allows us to be more vulnerable. And in that vulnerability, it allows us to take on feedback to say, I can really hear what you're saying without getting so triggered.Show Links:Guest Profile:Scott Shute's WebsiteScott Shute on LinkedinScott Shute on TwitterScott Shute on FacebookScott Shute on TEDxMountainViewHis Work:The Full Body Yes: Change Your Work and Your World from the Inside Out
