As the world enters a time of increasing tribulation, Shunyamurti reveals that the soul's deepest sickness is not trauma, karma, or suffering, but disconnection from God. The cure is neither self-improvement nor struggle, but the withdrawal of attention from the ego-mind and its fearful narratives into the silence of the heart. Through surrender, love, and openness to grace, the false self dissolves, the mind becomes still, and the healing light of God restores the soul to its natural state of peace, freedom, and divine joy.

Monday - Friday from 3 pm - 6 pm MT. https://RushToReason.com HOUR 1 Hollywood's Secret Power: How Movie Myths Could Decide the Election Guest host Andy Peth joins Tanner Cole and Ashley Carter to reveal how Hollywood's biggest myths about “strong women” aren't just box-office flops—they're quietly shaping how Americans think, vote, and clash over today's most divisive issues. Think it's just bad writing? Think again: this hour exposes the culture war being waged on the big screen and why it could tip the balance in November. Dive into the heated debate over Hollywood's idea of “strong women”—and why it matters at the ballot box. Is the entertainment industry changing minds on gender, values, marriage, and even abortion? The panel goes head-to-head on the cultural battles shaping America's future. Hear a faith-based take on marriage and gender roles from John in Cheyenne, plus firsthand stories from young Christians navigating a culture that's increasingly hostile to their beliefs. The hour wraps with a no-holds-barred look at whether conservatives can win the messaging war on women, merit, and opportunity before November—and what happens if they don't. If culture shapes politics more than politicians do, are we letting Hollywood rewrite America's future? HOUR 2 GOP at the Breaking Point: Can One Move Change Colorado Forever? Political analyst Eli Bremer (https://x.com/elibremer) joins Andy Peth to tackle the million-dollar question: Is Colorado doomed to go blue forever, or could one bold move flip the state's political destiny? Find out what the pundits and insiders aren't telling you about the battle for Colorado. Why are unaffiliated voters the new kingmakers—and what's the secret sauce for winning their trust? Hear how campaign messaging, credibility, and on-the-ground outreach are changing the rules of the game, with frank talk on public safety, immigration, and minority engagement. Plus: The real story behind political scorecards, the uphill battle of governing in the minority, and the high-stakes gambit to pull Republicans out of the primary system—could it backfire? Don't miss the inside scoop on what it really takes to win in Colorado's political minefield. HOUR 3 The Truth Bomb Hour: The Big Debates the Media Won't Touch Guest host Andy Peth and Jerzee Joe go full throttle on the issues the mainstream media dodges: taxes, wealth, and what's really holding America back from creating jobs and unleashing entrepreneurs. Want the truth about government red tape and where your tax dollars go? Buckle up. They tackle the immigration crisis—can the system survive?—and fire away on gun rights, ATF shakeups, and the real numbers behind America's gun debate. Then: A no-filter look at the Middle East—Hamas, Israel, and what big voices from Clinton to Maher get right (and wrong) about the conflict, human rights, and who's really shaping the narrative. Finally, don't miss the showdown over Social Security and the Postal Service: Can Washington fix the mess before it's too late?

In this episode of Partnerships Unraveled, we sit down with Sam Valme, Channel Evangelism Director of Americas at AvePoint. Sam has spent 13 years at AvePoint moving through solution engineering, sales, partner program design, and MSP sales leadership, building the kind of institutional knowledge that made the channel evangelism role possible. This episode is about what that role actually is, and why it matters.Sam opens with the observation that drove the creation of his role: channel-first companies attend partner community events and understand intuitively how valuable those environments are, but no one makes it their full-time job. Everyone is focused on sales. Sam spent years making the internal case for awards ceremonies, road shows, and community activation events, always as a side activity. He eventually wrote the proposals, secured executive support, and the role became his own.What has he learned about building that community? Two things stand out. First, the community has to serve both the go-to-market side of a partner's house and the technical side. Decisions about technology adoption often sit with engineering teams. Any community that ignores that is missing the people who determine whether new solutions actually get implemented. Second, partners consume information differently. Some engage through LinkedIn groups, some through video, some through audio, some through newsletters. The answer is not to pick one and optimize for it, but to build for all of them and meet partners where they already are.Sam's measure of success, in year one and beyond, is influence: on pipeline, on revenue, and on new partner activation. Build it right, and the community becomes self-sustaining. That is the goal._________________________Learn more about Channext

Codifying your knowledge into intellectual property (IP) is a crucial step for scaling any business, but what my guest Mo Bunnell shared in this episode completely changed my perspective on how to do it and the incredible impact it can have. Mo, author of Give to Grow and founder of the Bundle Idea Group, has built an astonishing career training professionals at some of the world's most prestigious organizations. He walked me through the evolution of his IP, from humble beginnings to the sophisticated materials he uses today to secure multi-six-figure contracts. This isn't something he typically breaks down publicly, and I was genuinely surprised by the tangible examples and actionable steps he provided for transforming a service-based business into an IP-driven powerhouse.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction02:29 Codifying your system in a weekend05:07 From intuition to framework: creating IP08:00 The evolution of training materials11:20 Essential elements of effective IP18:30 The economics of B2B and corporate clients21:00 How to get your first pilot clients26:00 Overcoming B2B objections29:00 Translating B2C IP to B2B corporate world31:00 Identifying high-leverage industries and roles34:00 Lowering the bar on perfection for B2B37:00 Lead magnets for decision-makers vs. users41:40 Advanced lead magnet strategies45:20 The power of public workshops49:40 Scaling beyond yourself: travel and certification52:45 Michael Hyatt's Business Accelerator growth56:00 The annuity effect of corporate trainingIf you enjoyed this episode, please like and subscribe, share it with your friends, and leave a review.

Today we're diving into something we use every day - our voice. Most of us are walking around with an unconscious default voice that's been patched together from old stories, childhood wounds, cultural expectations, and whatever got us through the day. But what if that voice isn't really you?Meet Barbara McAfee - voice whisperer, author, singer, and playful catalyst for authentic expression. For more than three decades, Barbara has helped people shed vocal habits shaped by old stories and step into voices that feel truly like home. Through sound, story, character work, and her Five Elements system, she makes voice liberation both profound and ridiculously fun. She's a master voice coach, bestselling author of Full Voice and Vocal Intelligence, and dynamic speaker whose two TEDx talks - including the widely viewed “Bringing Your Full Voice to Life” - have inspired hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. Her work has reached leaders, organizations, international educators, community singing movements, and countless individuals through keynotes, retreats, coach trainings, and her beloved Morning Star Singers hospice choir.Barbara, in so many ways, graces us with her presence on The Junkyard Love Podcast to remind us that our voice is the primary way we shape our world.Your voice is the instrument that shapes your expression on the way out. What we really 'mean' is upstream of the voice, and how we express what we really mean is changed by the voice - our life is lived downstream of our ability to express ourselves. Our expressions are interpreted by one another through an infinite number of micro movements, frequencies, rhythms, pheromones, sensory perceptions, biological responses, and so many more - but our voices carry truths even our own conscious perception can't filter out. Barbara shares that our voices are often shaped by past traumas, survival strategies, cultural pressure, and old stuck identities - and she teaches us how to release those unconscious holds in our physical body, allowing the voice to open and flow without restraint. In this back-and-forth conversation, we cover how most of us are unconsciously wearing what Barbara calls a “vocal girdle” - that invisible tightness and restriction we build over years from old wounds, family expectations, and cultural pressure that keeps our voice smaller and safer than it wants to be. She shares how we can gently loosen and remove it through her joyful Five Elements framework (Earth, Fire, Water, Metal, and Air), by playing with characters and archetypes, and through simple, everyday practices like laughing through the different sounds, voicing your yawns, and reading children's books out loud. We also explore the magic of group singing, the power of pretending to be someone else, code-switching with awareness, and why freeing your voice changes so much more than just how you sound - it changes how you show up in every part of your life.If you've ever felt like your voice doesn't quite match who you really are inside, this conversation is full of heart, laughter, insight, and practical tools you can start using right away - to start speaking with your real voice.Key Topics Covered:Unconscious vocal habits and the “vocal girdle” most of us wearHow childhood experiences and trauma shape our voiceThe Five Elements Framework for vocal freedomPlaying characters and archetypes to access hidden parts of yourselfThe power of group singing and collective connectionPractical daily tools to open and strengthen your voiceCode switching, ego, and authentic flexibilityVoice work for leaders, creatives, and everyday lifeChapter Timestamps (YouTube & Podcast Platforms)00:00 – Why Most People Are Stuck in an Unconscious “Default” Voice00:58 – The “Vocal Girdle”: How Old Wounds and Expectations Restrict Us02:13 – How Childhood Trauma and Family Secrets Shape Your Voice Long-Term04:10 – The Five Elements Framework (Earth, Fire, Water, Metal, Air) Explained05:40 – Barbara's Personal Story: Overcoming Fear of Singing Solo08:32 – The Secret Power of Playing Characters and Archetypes13:38 – Ego, “Brain Rats,” and Gently Expanding Beyond Your Comfort Zone22:55 – Practical Voice Tools for Leaders, Presentations, and Difficult Conversations30:29 – The Magic of Group Singing and Deep Human Connection34:05 – Jacob's Wild DJ Story: Unifying Experiences and Collective Flow40:06 – Laugh, Yawn & Read Children's Books: Easy Daily Practices to Open Your Voice46:26 – Code Switching: Shifting Voices Authentically Across Situations55:12 – Why Humans Crave Collective Ecstasy and Group Singing01:01:40 – Barbara's Books, Music, and Life's Work01:12:45 – Current Retreats, Courses, and What's Next for Barbara01:17:01 – Final Wisdom and Closing ReflectionsLearn practical voice exercises and how to speak with more confidence and authenticity.Key Quotes from Barbara“Most of us are using our kind of unconscious default voice that we think is us, but it's not. It's cobbled together with duct tape and popsicle sticks and trauma…”“We're all kind of wearing a vocal girdle.”“Pretending to be somebody else is kind of the secret sauce.”“The parts of my voice I hate the most have the greatest gifts for me.”“Our voice is the primary way we shape our world.”“Singing is like the mycelial connections between trees.”“Laughing is a great way to just open up the different sounds.”Resources & LinksOfficial Website: https://www.barbaramcafee.com/TEDx Talk (Full Voice): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze763kgrWGg & https://www.audible.com/pd/Vocal-Intelligence-Audiobook/B0GJ6S1JS3?clientContext=133-8676392-2129631&loginAttempt=true&noChallengeShown=true&srsltid=AfmBOorP30WNp0kMoRLLeUmuQ5u-QS5iM86MSz-MzEmJclaZfpu6Na-h&showMosaicSSOView=true&showAmznLopSignalBanner=trueBooks (on audible, physical copy, or Kindle!): Full Voice: The Art and Practice of Vocal Presence and Vocal Intelligence - https://a.co/d/0hOIWVoz // https://www.audible.com/pd/Vocal-Intelligence-Audiobook/B0GJ6S1JS3?clientContext=133-8676392-2129631&loginAttempt=true&noChallengeShown=true&srsltid=AfmBOorP30WNp0kMoRLLeUmuQ5u-QS5iM86MSz-MzEmJclaZfpu6Na-h&showMosaicSSOView=true&showAmznLopSignalBanner=trueMusic: https://barbaramcafee.bandcamp.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/barbaramcafeesings/For the most up-to-date Junkyard Love Podcast news, clips, and details: @Jacobfromtheinternet on InstagramPlease subscribe, follow, and like if you enjoyed the show!

Could mushrooms hold the secret to better gut health, lower cholesterol, and can they protect your brain? Today, Professor Robin May, a leading microbiologist and the UK Government's Chief Scientific Officer, explores why our interest in mushrooms has exploded. He explains why they are not just another vegetable but could hold the key to better gut health, brain health, immune health, and lower cholesterol. By the end of the episode, you'll know which health claims about mushrooms are real, which are exaggerated and where the science is just too early to trust. You'll have a solid understanding of what mushrooms are really doing inside our bodies and how to unlock the secret health powers they hold. Should mushrooms become a regular part of your weekly shop rather than an occasional side dish? And if fungi have evolved alongside humans for millions of years, what else might they reveal about the future of nutrition and health?

To listen to the full thing, visit our Susbtack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/colin-fisher In jazz, there's a concept called minimal structures — a rhythmic framework, a harmonic pattern, an implied order of solos. Just enough to hold the band together, but plenty of space for autonomous creativity. It's a useful lens for thinking about how any team works, and it comes directly from today's guest. Colin Fisher was a professional jazz trumpet player before he became one of the leading researchers on group dynamics. He's now an Associate Professor of Organizations and Innovation at University College London, with a PhD in Organizational Behavior from Harvard, and his new book is The Collective Edge. In it, he makes a case that we systematically underestimate the role groups play in every breakthrough we celebrate. We love stories about lone geniuses — Newton, Einstein, Miles Davis — but when you peel back almost any one of them, you find a group behind it. We just tend to forget that part, because our brains are wired to remember heroes, not ensembles. Ask everyone on a six-person team how much credit they deserve for the group's output, and one study found the total came to 235%. In this conversation, we get into why teams are 6.3 times more likely than individuals to produce breakthrough work, why the sorting hat in Harry Potter is actually the series' true villain, and why 84% of managers try to coach their way out of team problems when the real fix is structural. We also talk about the dangers of using competition to motivate creative teams, why the ideal team size hovers around 4.5 people, and what it would take to pull our increasingly individualistic world back toward something more collective — without tipping into the other extreme. Bio Colin M. Fisher is an Associate Professor at University College London's School of Management and the author of The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups (Avery/Penguin Random House), translated into ten languages. His research on group dynamics, creativity, and improvisation has been published in top academic journals and featured in BBC, Harvard Business Review, NPR, Forbes, and The Times. Before earning his PhD in Organizational Behavior from Harvard, Colin was a professional jazz trumpet player and longtime member of the Either/Orchestra. He lives in London with his wife and two children, and can sometimes be found sitting in at jazz jams around the city. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ancient Roots of Life Episode 42Unlock the secret history behind Solomon's legendary control over demons and the mysterious powers of the biblical temple. This episode dives deep into apocryphal texts, ancient demonology, and the hidden lore that ties Solomon's wisdom to occult practices—showing how some believe he might have used demonic forces to build the temple in just a few years.You'll discover shocking accounts from the Testament of Solomon that reveal Solomon commanding spirits, commanding demons like Beelzebul, and even using rings to bind and control supernatural entities. We break down intriguing details about the demon Orneous, the significance of the pentagram sigil, and how ancient texts link Solomon's power to controlling unclean spirits—raising questions about what secrets might be buried in the shadowy intersections of scripture, demonology, and occult tradition.Key insights include the biblical and extra-biblical stories about Solomon's dealings with demons, the mystical symbols associated with demonic control, and the connection between ancient temple building, celestial signs, and spiritual power. We explore how these stories are supported or hinted at in the canonical text and what they imply about the unseen realm that influences modern esoteric teachings, secret societies, and Hollywood's fascination with the arcane.Why does understanding Solomon's alleged mastery over demons matter today? Because it sheds light on the hidden forces behind ancient constructions, religious traditions, and the modern occult elite. If these ancient accounts hold truth, they challenge what you thought you knew about spiritual authority—and they suggest that much of today's symbolism and secret knowledge stems from these hidden, spiritual origins.This episode is perfect for curious minds, biblical explorers, and anyone driven to uncover the mysteries lurking in scripture and world history. Join us as we unlock doors to the unseen realm, revealing why Solomon's story continues to influence unseen powers and modern symbolism—an essential listen for those who want to see behind the curtain and understand the spiritual roots shaping our world.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jt-s-mix-tape--6579902/support.Please support our sponsor Modern Roots Life: https://modernrootslife.com/?bg_ref=rVWsBoOfcFPatreon: https://patreon.com/JT_Follows_JC?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkJESUS SAID THERE WOULD BE HATERS: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/mens-shirts/JT's Hats: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/hats/Coaching Program: https://www.echoesoftruthnetwork.com/join

Have you ever sat in a pointless meeting wondering, "what am I even doing here?'Imagine if meeting up with fellow humans felt less like a slow-motion train wreck… and more like a great jam session—where everyone's locked in, connected, and creating something truly inspirational none of you could have created alone.Some call this concept the mastermind, when your group becomes more than the sum of its parts, creating something altogether much more expansive and, at its best, transcendent. On today's show, we're here with Dr. Colin Fisher, professor, jazz trumpet player, and author of The Collective Edge, talking about the real science of group dynamics, creativity, and leadership. Dr. Fisher has spent his career studying why some teams become far more than the sum of their parts… while others spiral into dysfunction, groupthink, and soul‑sucking meetings that could have easily been an email.If you've ever watched a brilliant team of superstars underperform and fail spectacularly, this conversation will give you a totally new lens on how human dynamics actually work, and how to build teams that launch you into the stratosphere.In this episode, we dig into:How to handle the person who sucks all the air out of the room (without making it personal)Why 60% of a team's performance is decided before the first meeting even happensWhat jazz improvisation can teach us about flow, trust, and spontaneous collaboration at workWhy the “lone genius” is a myth of marketingWhy we desperately need to talk about what AI is already doing to our teamsAnd much more..Find Dr. Colin Fisher and his work at: Website: ColinMFisher.comBook: The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of GroupsSubstack: https://colinmfisher.substack.com/ Instagram: @ColinMFisherInstagram: @TrumpetFisherYouTube: @DrColinMFisherLinkedIn: @ColinMFisherPlease take a moment to make sure you're subscribed wherever you listen to podcasts, and to stay up-to-date, sign up for my newsletter at AbelJames.com.You can also join Substack as a free or paid member for ad-free episodes of this show, to comment on each episode, and to hit me up in the DM's.

How can leaders use emotional intelligence to create workplaces where employees flourish? We explore the science and practice of emotional wisdom, examining how leaders can harness the interplay between emotion and reason to foster well-being, connection, and high performance in their teams. Josh Freedman, named one of the top 50 management and leadership experts by Inc. Magazine, is a global authority on emotions and emotional intelligence. He has spent decades helping leaders develop the skills to better understand themselves and connect with their teams. In our wonderful conversation, Josh reveals the “secret power” most leaders overlook: emotional intelligence — more specifically, the ability to understand and harness emotions in oneself and others to drive connection, well-being, and performance. Josh's new book, Emotion Rules: The Science and Practice of Emotional Wisdom, provides a practical roadmap for leaders who want to apply emotional intelligence to improve both individual and organizational performance. Drawing on decades of research and practice, the book challenges the myth that great leaders are cool, detached, and relentlessly rational. Instead, Josh shows that emotion and reason are deeply intertwined — and that understanding this interplay is essential for effective leadership. Our conversation explores the idea that humans aren't strictly rational beings, as highlighted by New York Times columnist David Brooks, who recently described our minds as “swirls” — dynamic, interconnected systems where emotion and reason are inseparable. Josh explains why this framing is critical for leaders who want to support employee well-being. We also examine how historical and cultural myths have shaped the way business views emotion, and what leaders can do to shift these outdated perspectives. Practical skills for leaders are a key focus. Josh shares how to connect with one's own feelings, reflect on emotional data, and act with presence. He introduces the TFA Triangle, showing how Thoughts, Feelings, and Actions interact, and how understanding this helps leaders respond more effectively to employees, especially during times of stress or change. Josh explains emotional contagion and how leaders shape the overall culture and atmosphere of their teams. He also addresses one of today's most pressing organizational challenges: burnout, explaining why it is driven more by unmet emotional needs than logistics — and what leaders can do to prevent it and support their teams.

The Longevity Link podcast explores how optimizing the first hour after waking can dramatically influence your overall well-being and longevity. Host Chris Givant delves into the science behind the cortisol awakening response and the critical role of light exposure in setting your body's daily rhythm. By stepping outside to absorb morning light, engaging in simple movement, and hydrating, you can positively impact your mood, metabolism, and even disease risk. These morning habits align your circadian rhythms, enhance your body's ability to produce energy, and prepare you mentally and physically for the day.

Silence is one of the most misunderstood skills in leadership, communication, and life. Many people rush to fill quiet moments with explanations, reactions, or noise because silence forces awareness. It removes the ability to perform, defend, or control how others perceive us. This episode explores why silence feels so uncomfortable and why that discomfort is often a signal that something important is happening internally.The conversation breaks down how silence functions as a power move in high-pressure moments, not because it dominates a room, but because it regulates the nervous system. Troy shares how learning to pause instead of react creates clarity, steadiness, and intentional communication. The episode explores how silence can either trigger fear and old emotional patterns or become a stabilizing force, allowing you to respond with precision instead of impulse.Personal stories are woven throughout, including experiences with conflict, rejection, grief, and preparing for defining moments like public speaking and delivering a TEDx talk. These moments highlight how silence carries different emotional weight depending on context, and how the body often reacts to pressure as if every moment carries the same level of threat. The episode connects this to fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses, and explains how silence can help interrupt those patterns before they escalate.The episode also explores how silence builds trust and presence in professional settings. Speaking less, pausing longer, and choosing restraint often signal confidence and credibility more than volume or speed. Listeners will hear how silence can shift power dynamics in business, leadership, and relationships, while also demanding emotional discipline, self-control, and a willingness to sit with discomfort.Ultimately, this episode is about mastering silence as a form of self-leadership. It is not about withholding communication or avoiding hard moments. It is about knowing when silence serves you, when it sharpens your message, and when it allows you to own a situation without forcing it. Silence works, but it comes with a cost, and this episode challenges listeners to decide whether they are willing to develop the discipline required to use it well.

Send us a textIn Part One, organizational behavior scholar Colin M. Fisher dismantles the myth of the lone genius, showing that performance is shaped less by individual talent and more by the groups people belong to. He reframes leadership around social norms, group dynamics, and collective context—arguing that leaders often misdiagnose performance problems by focusing on people instead of the group system they operate within.Part Two builds on that foundation with practical guidance for leaders. Fisher explains why teams frequently underperform—not because of effort or ability, but because organizations are designed to reward and manage individuals, not collective work. He introduces the concept of relaunching teams, offering a roadmap for resetting goals, norms, and roles so groups can move from friction to true collaboration. The episode closes with a powerful shift in perspective: sustainable performance improves when leaders stop fixing individuals and start strengthening the group.Episode Highlights• Why teams often perform worse than individuals—and how leaders can     change that.• The 60–30–10 rule that explains what really drives team performance• How to relaunch a struggling or inherited team• The role of shared goals, norms, and “superpowers” in building trust• Moving from me vs. you to us vs. the problemGuest:  Colin M.

Send us a textIn this episode of Anatomy of Leadership, host Chris Comeaux is joined by Colin Fisher, professor, researcher, author, and jazz trumpeter, to explore what decades of research reveal about how groups really work—and why so many teams struggle to reach their potential.Drawing from his book The Collective Edge, Colin challenges the myth of the “lone genius” and reframes leadership as a discipline of design.  Instead of motivating harder or managing individuals more closely, leaders are invited to think like architects—intentionally shaping team size, structure, norms, and psychological safety so collaboration and learning can emerge naturally.This conversation dives into why most teams are too large to function effectively, how hidden norms silently shape behavior, and why harmony is often mistaken for real collaboration.  With practical examples from healthcare, hospice, and other mission-driven environments, the episode offers research-backed insight into building teams that learn, adapt, and perform under pressure.Episode Insights•Why teams are often less than the sum of their parts•How team size and structure impact decision-making•What psychological safety really looks like in practice•Why disagreement is essential for strong teams•How leaders can unlock collective intelligence—not suppress itIf you lead teams, sit in meetings, or want collaboration to actually work, this episode will fundamentally change how you think about leadership and group performance.Subscribe for more conversations on leadership, systems, and human behavior.

What makes Harry Potter's Invisibility Cloak truly special? Sure, it's one of the legendary Deathly Hallows — indestructible, eternal, and able to render its wearer perfectly invisible. But Dumbledore tells Harry that it only ever worked fully for him, its rightful master. So what's the secret power hidden inside the Cloak? In this video, J dives deep into the theory that the Cloak's magic isn't about invisibility at all — it's about protection. From Moody's enchanted eye to the Marauder's Map and even Nagini at Godric's Hollow, every moment the Cloak “fails” actually proves it's doing something more powerful…

Why do smart people join dangerous cults, follow bad leaders, or stay silent when they know something's wrong? In this episode, Michael Shermer talks with organizational psychologist Colin Fisher about the science of group dynamics and conformity. From jazz bands to political mobs, Fisher explains how our evolutionary need to belong both unites and blinds us. He discusses the psychology of revenge, polarization, social media extremism, and why our brains are wired to dehumanize "the other." What makes a group innovative instead of dogmatic? And how close are we—really—to turning everyday politics into a cult? Colin M. Fisher is an Associate Professor of Organizations and Innovation at University College London's School of Management. His research focuses on helping groups and teams in situations requiring creativity, improvisation, and complex decision-making. He has written about group dynamics for both popular science and management audiences, and his work has been profiled in prominent media outlets such as BBC, Forbes, NPR, and The Times. His new book is The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups.

How to unlock the power of groups through collective communication.They say teamwork makes the dream work. But as Colin Fisher knows, unlocking the power of groups requires a specific kind of collective communication.Fisher is an associate professor of organizations and innovation at University College London School of Management and author of The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups. His research reveals the dichotomy of group dynamics: "Groups can be the pinnacle of human accomplishment," he says. "But groups also have these tendencies to restrict us, to take away our individuality, and to sometimes make us the worst versions of ourselves.” The key, he argues, is fostering communication that maximizes the creative synergy of collaboration while minimizing the pressure to conform.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Fisher joins host Matt Abrahams to share evidence-based strategies for effective teamwork, from selecting the ideal group size to fostering psychological safety. Whether with our coworkers, our families, or our friends, Fisher's insights reveal how collective communication can make or break group success.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Colin FisherColin's Book: The Collective EdgeEp.174 Fix Meetings: Transform Gatherings Into Meaningful MomentsEp.124 Making Meetings Meaningful Pt. 1: How to Structure and Organize More Effective Gatherings   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 (02:19) - Advantages and Disadvantages of Groups (03:53) - What Makes Teams Successful (05:37) - The Ideal Group Size (06:33) - Building Psychological Safety (08:49) - Launching a Team for Success (13:10) - Making Meetings More Effective (16:25) - The Final Three Questions (23:13) - Conclusion   ********This episode is sponsored by Grammarly.

When you ask someone to recall something from deep in their memory, watch their face — they'll probably do something that actually helps them remember. You might do it too without realizing it. Listen as I reveal what it is and why it works. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/ulterior-motives/201110/why-do-you-close-your-eyes-remember Have you heard of the winner's curse or the sunk cost theory? These are strange but predictable ways our brains can trick us when we take risks — especially with money. My guest, Alex O. Imas, Professor of Behavioral Science, Economics, and Applied AI at the University of Chicago, has studied these “behavioral anomalies” with Nobel Prize winner Richard Thaler. Together they co-authored The Winner's Curse: Behavioral Economics Anomalies, Then and Now. (https://amzn.to/48gycBj) . Listen to how these things work, because understanding these anomalies can help keep you from falling victim to them. We've all had to work in groups, whether it's a team we are assigned to at work, or a neighborhood committee or parents' group. Sometimes they run beautifully. Often… they don't. Why do so many groups struggle, and how can we make them more effective? Colin T. Fisher, Associate Professor of Organizations and Innovation at University College London, joins me to share insights that can help any team excel. Colin is author of the book The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups.(https://amzn.to/48WcuCT).

How can group work positively affect clients' behavior and decisions? What makes a really good listener? What are the essentials that every leader needs to receive and implement feedback? In […] The post Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups in Your Private Practice with Dr. Colin M. Fisher | POP 1273 appeared first on How to Start, Grow, and Scale a Private Practice | Practice of the Practice.

Colin Fisher: The Collective Edge Since his days as a professional jazz trumpet player, Colin Fisher has been fascinated by group dynamics. Today, he is an Associate Professor of Organizations and Innovation at University College London's School of Management, researching the hidden processes of helping groups and teams in situations requiring creativity, improvisation, and complex decision-making. He is the author of The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups (Amazon, Bookshop). Most of us assume that the best thing we can do for our teams is to be a great coach as they're working together. That absolutely helps, but the research says that only 10% of group effectiveness is what we do once the team is underway. In this conversation, Colin and I explore how to get a lot better at the other 90%. Key Points The house always wins. If the structure isn't right for the team to succeed, little else matters in the long run. Leaders tend to put a majority of their attention on coaching teams in progress instead of the more significant work at the start of structuring and launching teams. Work on fixing structural problems before you focus on fixing the process. 60% of group effectiveness is determined by structure, 30% by the launch, and 10% by expert coaching. Critical for structure is the team goal being clear, important, and challenging. Be sure to document it. Negotiate roles, tasks, and jobs to support structure. Determine early how to articulate progress and highlight small wins. Ask yourself if the group has the right people to achieve the objective. Deep diversity that supports the goal is essential. Surface discussions about norms at the start, especially related to communication and storage of information. At a team launch, articulate why everyone is there, discuss key norms, and schedule a midpoint to reflect and align.
