In this episode of On The Clock, host Todd Dallas Lamb welcomes Dr. Charles Hulme, professor emeritus at Oxford University and one of the foundational voices behind the modern Science of Reading movement. With wit, humility, and deep scientific insight, Dr. Hulme traces the origins of the now widely adopted phrase “science of reading,” and explores how decades of research into how children learn to read are reshaping classrooms worldwide.Dr. Hulme discusses the cognitive mechanics behind literacy—drawing clear distinctions between reading for decoding and reading for comprehension—and explains why phonics remains a non-negotiable starting point for literacy instruction. He also dives into the emotional and lifelong consequences of reading struggles, particularly how early language deficits can spiral into academic underachievement, social isolation, and mental health issues.The episode goes beyond theory. Hulme describes his work with OxEd, the Oxford University spinout he founded to bring evidence-based reading and language tools into schools. With over two-thirds of English schools using their assessments, OxEd exemplifies how rigorous research can drive practical, scalable solutions in education.Todd and Dr. Hulme also touch on everything from educational funding in the UK to regional accents in America—ending with a heartwarming childhood anecdote about a chance encounter with a shoe repairman who sparked young Charles's fascination with psychology.Key Moments04:39 Oxford Experience and Educational Journey07:03 Rethinking Dyslexia: Language Roots12:52 Dyslexia Severity Compared to Hypertension14:15 Oxford Research Spinout Company19:44 "Advocating Science in Education"22:50 Early Encounter with Psychology26:11 Language Development in Babies28:28 "Honoring Charles' Educational Impact"Connect with Dr. Charles HulmeLinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/charles-hulme-7a1846165=============================Learn more about Strategos Group: https://www.strategosgroup.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/strategos-group-public-affairs/

Are You Standing on Your Leadership Head? Picture this: You're wondering why your leadership feels like swimming upstream while wearing concrete boots. The answer might be simpler (and more embarrassing) than you think. You've taken three of the most powerful leadership principles and turned them completely backwards. The Leadership Reality Check Drawing from Stephen Covey's timeless Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, this episode exposes how emerging leaders – especially those caught in middle management limbo – are unknowingly sabotaging their own success. We're talking about smart, capable people who are doing everything "right" but getting everything wrong. The Three Habits That Make or Break Leaders 1. Be Proactive (Not Predictive) Stop trying to guess what your boss wants and start owning your responses Self-awareness beats people-pleasing every single time The game-changing difference between responding and reacting 2. Begin with the End in Mind (Not Written in Stone) Your vision is a compass, not commandments carved in granite Why followers need to see your destination, not just your daily detours The trust-killing mistake leaders make when changing course 3. Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood (Not to Be Right) The family dinner table debate trap that destroys workplace relationships Why "tell me more" are the three most powerful words in leadership How buying permission to be heard transforms adversaries into collaborators The Bottom Line Leadership isn't about having all the answers – it's about asking better questions, owning your choices, and creating space for others to contribute their genius. When you flip these three habits right-side up, you stop swimming upstream and start riding the current toward leadership success. Tune In For: The "compass not commandments" approach to vision setting A simple phrase that opens communication floodgates Why self-awareness is the ultimate leadership superpower Real talk about middle management frustrations (looking at you, retail warriors) The trust equation that determines whether followers stick or split Ready to stop doing leadership upside down? Your team (and your sanity) will thank you.

In this episode of On The Clock, host Todd Dallas Lamb sits down with Dr. John Craft, Superintendent of Northside ISD—the fourth-largest school district in Texas—to discuss leadership, resilience, and the role of schools as the heart of their communities. As the state grapples with the aftermath of a devastating flood near the Guadalupe River, Dr. Craft reflects on how schools step up during times of crisis, offering counseling, resources, and support far beyond the classroom.A seventh-generation Texan and former football coach, Dr. Craft brings a grounded, no-nonsense perspective to education leadership. He shares how his background in athletics shaped his philosophy around teamwork, community engagement, and character development—values that ripple across his district's 12 high schools and extensive magnet programs. The conversation covers everything from Texas brisket and Friday night lights to expanding dual-credit pathways and opening a new early college high school in partnership with Alamo Colleges and St. Mary's University.Dr. Craft emphasizes the transformative power of extracurricular activities, the importance of parent engagement, and the need to prepare students for both college and career. With initiatives that reduce the cost of higher education and offer real-world experience—whether on the field, in the band, or behind a video board—Northside ISD is building not just graduates, but future leaders.Amidst tragedy, this episode is a moving reminder that schools are more than buildings—they're lifelines, launchpads, and the glue that holds communities together.Key Moments05:42 Texan Resilience and Community Support07:26 Texas: Heroes in Tragedy11:14 Athletics Teach Lifelong Lessons13:20 Community Engagement in Schools17:53 Student Career Opportunities Boost20:14 Mary's College Supports Dual Credit23:19 Show AppreciationConnect with Dr. John CraftWebsite: https://www.nisd.net/district=============================Learn more about Strategos Group: https://www.strategosgroup.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/strategos-group-public-affairs/

We're back!  In this week's episode, we talk about the importance of affecting change, even though it feels like we're sometimes swimming upstream.  Effective teachers know that spending a disproportionate amount of time on students that don't want or refuse to learn is a losing proposition.  It's also time for us to actively and intentionally engage with parents.  Together, we can generate better outcomes.  

Join the Friday news roundup with Victor Davis Hanson and co-host Sami Winc: escalation in the Ukraine war, faux ceasefire in Gaza, AMA a dying industry, Apple's future, Trump v. judicial overreach, Harvard's insidious anti-Semitism, Columbia's protestor's profiles, racism in the WNBA, and California's exodus and decline.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When the current pulls us toward hard choices and uncertain outcomes, will we pass the buck or take responsibility? This Palm Sunday message explores the courage of Jesus as he enters Jerusalem, facing the cost of his mission head-on—and invites us to do the same.

This week it's a book club episode with Patsy Peril, who co-wrote (with Deirdre Nuttall) ‘Swimming Upstream: one man's fight to save the Atlantic salmon'. It's a fascinating memoir about the life of a netsman on the River Shannon.  Patsy talks to us about the importance of the salmon to the communities and villages along the Shannon and how the building of Ardnacrusha decimated a way of life for so many. He talks about his work as a netsman and the increasingly difficult years, dealing with industrialisation, pollution, salmon farms and overfishing which led to the decline of salmon numbers before his eyes. But he also details his efforts to fight for the salmon and a friendship with the lifelong wild salmon campaigner, Orri Vigfússon, that developed along the way. ‘Swimming Upstream: one man's fight to save the Atlantic salmon' is available in all good bookshops.  Keep up to date with all the latest Ireland on the Fly on https://www.IrelandontheFly.com and get regular updates on https://Instagram.com/IrelandontheFly.

Resurrection isn't just Jesus coming out of the tomb, it's for people here and now! Whether it's a quiet healing over time or a sudden jolt of grace, both are signs of little "r" resurrection. It's available to all right now!

How do you know if the voice you're following is really God's? A blind man recognized Jesus without ever seeing him—so what set that voice apart? Join us as we explore the qualities that bring peace, purpose, and transformation, and learn how to cut through the noise to hear God with clarity.

This sermon explores the story of the woman at the well and the transformative power of Living Water. Too often, we go through life without expecting renewal in the ordinary, just as she never expected to encounter the Messiah at a familiar well. But Christ meets us where we are, offering grace, purpose, and the kind of refreshment that never runs dry.

Part 2 of our guidance on Swimming Upstream introduces executive-level insights into our Manager Tools content to help managers become more effective by understanding organizational dynamics beyond their role, ultimately preparing them for greater leadership opportunities.

Faith is passed down through teaching and lived experience. Just as Jesus was shaped by those who taught him scripture, we grow through the wisdom and encouragement of others. How can we continue that cycle and be a source of faith and strength for someone else?

Our guidance on Swimming Upstream introduces executive-level insights into our Manager Tools content to help managers become more effective by understanding organizational dynamics beyond their role, ultimately preparing them for greater leadership opportunities.

In his evocative and thought-provoking new memoir 'Swimming Upstream: one man's fight to save the Atlantic wild salmon', Patsy Peril recalls a life deeply entwined with Irish wildlife. Patsy speaks to our resident expert in all things piscine, Ken Whelan.

During Lent, we embark on a journey of transformation, much like salmon fighting their way upstream to new life. This week, we explore how true giving, prayer, and service require humility and intention—offering ourselves without seeking recognition, engaging with God without distraction, and serving without expectation.
