Operators with 30 years of pattern recognition leave for competitors. Engineers carrying legacy system intelligence depart. Everyone understands the risk. Few solve the execution: Systematically extracting tacit intelligence that experts can't articulate because it operates below the conscious threshold.Dr. Refiloe Mabaso and Wisdom Ndashe architected what many struggle to build - knowledge-capture systems that function independently of voluntary participation. At ATNS, harvesting is mandated by policy and embedded in workflows. Their "Legends and Beneficiaries" program identifies critical expertise five years before departure, mapping tacit intelligence to next-generation operators through structured protocols. The execution breakthrough: embedding capture into SOPs makes retention automatic. Travel with Purpose demonstrates strategic reach - converting unaccounted expenditures into documented intelligence acquisition with measurable ROI.

Are our churches unintentionally approving exclusivity?Stu, Tim and Joel dive deep into the research behind Stu's PhD on the Shock Absorber, youth ministry and generative intergenerational ministry—and why most churches experience cultural lag that makes them irrelevant.Motivated to understand why young people leave the church, Stu shares why he started (and restarted) his PhD, using what he has learned from 20 years in youth ministry and 13 years planting Soul Revival.The conversation explores the meditative benefits of writing and walking, the imposter syndrome Stu feels in academia, and the "clown suit" metaphor—how Christians became irrelevant trying to be cool instead of just being confident in Jesus. They discuss Blue Ocean Strategy and why Soul Revival looks to be a pioneer in ministry instead of competing for the same young people.Stu explains how the PhD work has moved from "moderate intergenerational ministry" to "generative intergenerational ministry" by combining Kendra Creasy Dean's and Erik Erikson's work. This reveals the gap in youth ministry literature and highlights how the homogeneous unit principle creates a gravitational pull toward exclusivity.The Shock Absorber model flips the script: young people can experiment on how to be a Christian in new cultural contexts, while adults provide theological grounding and wisdom. It's about having both segregated youth spaces AND accessible intergenerational spaces—the fifth way of doing ministry.As Tim notes towards the end: this only works because we're co-adopted by the same Saviour, which makes humility between the generations possible.Timestamps:00:00 - Intro: the meditative benefits of writing and walking12:50 - The motivating factors behind Stu's PhD31:49 - Soul Revival helped people be confident and Christian1:00:37 - Generative intergenerational model1:25:50 - Tim's TakeawayDiscussed on this episode:Guy Goma: The Wrong GuyJenn's Interview - The IT CrowdMoving beyond the shock absorber: The place of youth ministry—past, present and future, by Stu CrawshawThe Child in God's Church, by Tim BeilharzGlenn Maxwell produces one of the greatest ODI knocks of all-timeHigh Agency, by George MackKenda Creasy DeanErik EriksonThe Generative Church, by Corey SeibelSoul Revival Late Night at Sydney Airport

In this episode, we try to make the concept of tacit knowledge explicit. How much of our scientific knowledge depends on knowledge that we can't communicate directly? How can we replicate studies, if they might rely on tacit knowledge? And why has the concept itself not been made more explicit in the last 45 years? Enjoy.    Collins, H. (2012).

Most leaders think they're setting the tone—but often, it's someone else. Matt breaks down how to identify the real influencers in the room, recognize subtle shifts, and build a repeatable process for situational mastery.From his decades in sports medicine and leadership research, Matt shows how the same tools used to train Olympic athletes apply to executives, dads, and anyone navigating high-stakes conversations.TL;DR* Situational mastery ≠ luck: it's about recognizing, reordering, responding, and reflecting (the R4 framework).* Invisible cues rule the room: deep sighs, eye rolls, micro-pauses—miss these and you miss the moment.* Leaders aren't always the influencers: figure out who others look to for cues, and win them as allies.* Tacit knowledge = wisdom: mastery comes from integrating hindsight, insight, and foresight (3D thinking).* The pace of change breaks hindsight: you can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic—blend past, present, and future.* No solo mastery: like Dickens' Scrooge, you need “ghosts” (mentors, coaches, truth-tellers) to correct blind spots.Memorable lines* “The metrics of success shift every time the room shifts.”* “Most leaders think they're setting the tone—usually, they're not.”* “Tacit knowledge is intuition you can trust, and it can be learned.”* “You can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic.”* “Every leader needs to know their Kissinger in the room.”GuestMatt Kutz, PhD — Professor of Sports Medicine & Athletic Training; VP of the World Federation of Athletic Training and Therapy; author of 8+ books on leadership, human performance, and global strategy.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmattkutz/Website: http://www.matthewkutz.comWhy this mattersLeaders today operate in a VUCA world—volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous. Titles don't guarantee influence, and old playbooks don't work. Contextual intelligence bridges the gap between knowing and being: it's not just about logic or intuition, but the fusion of both in real time.If you want to lead effectively—whether in boardrooms, classrooms, or family rooms—you need the ability to read the invisible cues, reframe priorities on the fly, and adapt without losing credibility.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

We will explore how Polanyi's concept of tacit knowledge offers a path forward in an era of uncertainty and ideological division. As truth becomes increasingly contested, Polanyi's insights remind us that knowledge is not merely objective data but a lived, embodied reality shaped by tradition, trust, and personal commitment. We will examine how reclaiming tacit knowledge can help restore coherence in public discourse and navigate the complex challenges of our fragmented world. What is at stake is not only truth, but justice and liberty.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: “Today, the "Times writes, "while most Americans do not support political violence, a growing share have said in surveys that they view rival partisans as a threat to the country or even as inhuman. Mr. Trump,” the Times continues, “has had a hand in that. Since his 2016 candidacy, he has signaled at least his tacit approval of violence against his political opponents. He encouraged attendees at his rallies to ‘knock the hell' out of protesters, praised a lawmaker who body slammed a reporter, and defended the rioters on January 6th, 2021, who clamored to hang Mike Pence. One of his first acts in his second term as president was to pardon those rioters.” Yeah, I think the approval of violence is considerably more than tacit there.

CLOSE OF THE COLD WAR:     1/4: The Picnic:A Dream of Freedom and the Collapse of the Iron Curtain by  Matthew Longo  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Picnic-Dream-Freedom-Collapse-Curtain/dp/0393540774/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= In August 1989, a group of Hungarian activists organized a picnic on the border of Hungary and Austria. But this was not an ordinary picnic―it was located on the dangerous militarized frontier known as the Iron Curtain. Tacit permission from the highest state authorities could be revoked at any moment. On wisps of rumor, thousands of East German “vacationers” packed Hungarian campgrounds, awaiting an opportunity, fearing prison, surveilled by lurking Stasi agents. The Pan-European Picnic set the stage for the greatest border breach in Cold War history: hundreds crossed from the Communist East to the longed-for freedom of the West. Drawing on dozens of original interviews―including Hungarian activists and border guards, East German refugees, Stasi secret police, and the last Communist prime minister of Hungary―Matthew Longo tells a gripping and revelatory tale of the unraveling of the Iron Curtain and the birth of a new world order. Just a few months after the Picnic, the Berlin Wall fell, and the freedom for which the activists and refugees had abandoned their homes, risked imprisonment, sacrificed jobs, family, and friends, was suddenly available to everyone. But were they really free? And why, three decades since the Iron Curtain was torn down, have so many sought once again to build walls? Cinematically told, The Picnic recovers a time when it seemed possible for the world to change.

Welcome to a new episode of the Future Generations Podcast! Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Cal Washington, the CEO, founder, and author behind the InPower movement. In this insightful conversation, Cal shares his personal journey of awakening to the systemic deception within the legal and financial systems, and how he has developed a powerful approach to reclaiming our inherent dominion over these structures. Highlights: "There is no bad thing happening in the world where money is not involved, yeah, and you will not find anything like that. So money is what is driving all this. Without money, they can't do most of what they're doing."   "Tacit agreement is if you haven't said, if you didn't say no, then you've said yes. It's an old law merchant and even modern commerce, like if everybody had to do what's called a mirror image contract. I'm offering you this. I accept that like on every transaction, it would just completely bog down."   "We have the dominant position here. It's just been, you are taken away by claims, etc, and so we just have to get that all back, legally, lawfully, spiritually, financially, all these mechanisms that we all buy into, we have to make our statement known and act on it like we can't sit back and just let it happen or or hope for the cavalry coming over the hill."   Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction 01:32 Discovering the Flaws in the Court System 03:58 The Child Support Order as a Bill of Exchange 07:37 The Origins of InPower 12:07 The War for Consent and Tacit Agreements 16:27 The Effectiveness of InPower's Approach 19:29 Targeting Specific Regions and the Role of Smart Meters 24:13 The Dominion Granted to Humanity and the Spiritual Aspect 32:30 Cal's Personal Journey and Staying Power 59:39 Practical Steps for Parents to Get Involved with InPower   Resources:   Remember to Rate, Review, and Subscribe on iTunes and Follow us on Spotify!   Learn more about Dr. Stanton Hom on:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drstantonhom  Website: https://futuregenerationssd.com/    Podcast Website: https://thefuturegen.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/drstantonhom  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stanhomdc    About Cal Washington: website: https://www.inpowermovement.org/  Cal Washington is an empowerment advocate who, "has stumbled into knowledge leading to an extraordinary experience within the systems of commerce and justice".

HAS THE IRON CURTAIN RETURNED? 4/4: The Picnic:A Dream of Freedom and the Collapse of the Iron Curtain by  Matthew Longo  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Picnic-Dream-Freedom-Collapse-Curtain/dp/0393540774/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= In August 1989, a group of Hungarian activists organized a picnic on the border of Hungary and Austria. But this was not an ordinary picnic―it was located on the dangerous militarized frontier known as the Iron Curtain. Tacit permission from the highest state authorities could be revoked at any moment. On wisps of rumor, thousands of East German “vacationers” packed Hungarian campgrounds, awaiting an opportunity, fearing prison, surveilled by lurking Stasi agents. The Pan-European Picnic set the stage for the greatest border breach in Cold War history: hundreds crossed from the Communist East to the longed-for freedom of the West. Drawing on dozens of original interviews―including Hungarian activists and border guards, East German refugees, Stasi secret police, and the last Communist prime minister of Hungary―Matthew Longo tells a gripping and revelatory tale of the unraveling of the Iron Curtain and the birth of a new world order. Just a few months after the Picnic, the Berlin Wall fell, and the freedom for which the activists and refugees had abandoned their homes, risked imprisonment, sacrificed jobs, family, and friends, was suddenly available to everyone. But were they really free? And why, three decades since the Iron Curtain was torn down, have so many sought once again to build walls? Cinematically told, The Picnic recovers a time when it seemed possible for the world to change. With insight and panache, Longo explores the opportunities taken―and the opportunities we failed to take―in that pivotal moment. 1930 MINSK

But there's a more productive approach you could be taking—and in this episode of Mindfulness Manufacturing, guest Dr. Jake Mazulewicz breaks it all down! With a background as a firefighter, EMT, and military paratrooper, Jake knows the challenges of high-hazard industries, and works with organizations to reduce errors and create safer, more reliable workplace environments. In this episode, Jake shares why you can't procedularize everything, including the way you handle errors and accidents, and offers great insights and stories about how to use connection and curiosity to improve safety, address errors, and strengthen your organization. 3:35 – Procedures and policies are the work that is imagined, and on the floor is how the work actually gets done 4:19 – The work as-done is almost always radically different than the work as-imagined 5:20 – Even when you have standards and people show up wanting to do a good job, you can still see issues that need to be addressed 6:44 – There will always be areas that absolutely need to have procedures in place 8:02 – There are also adaptive jobs, which leans less into procedures and more intro troubleshooting and tacit human knowledge 10:56 - In an ideal environment, both mechanistic and adaptive models are used and respected and needed 12:11 – There are four levels, ranging from strict procedurals to looser guidelines that show what to do, but not how to do it 15:36 – Tacit knowledge gets shared through conversations 16:22 – A way to share important information is to have frontline experts record videos sharing their insights to problems, especially those that are not covered in procedures 19:44 – Through conversation and connection, more knowledge is shared 21:58 – Debriefing also plays a central role 23:45 – If you have strong discipline, you'll find more freedom 25:31 – In most situations, errors are signals, not defects 27:07 – When an error occurs, be curious and find the deeper cause of the problem Connect with Jake Mazulewicz Find him on Linkedin Visit his website

1/4 The Picnic: A Dream of Freedom and the Collapse of the Iron Curtain Hardcover by  Matthew Longo  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Picnic-Dream-Freedom-Collapse-Curtain/dp/0393540774/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= In August 1989, a group of Hungarian activists organized a picnic on the border of Hungary and Austria. But this was not an ordinary picnic―it was located on the dangerous militarized frontier known as the Iron Curtain. Tacit permission from the highest state authorities could be revoked at any moment. On wisps of rumor, thousands of East German “vacationers” packed Hungarian campgrounds, awaiting an opportunity, fearing prison, surveilled by lurking Stasi agents. The Pan-European Picnic set the stage for the greatest border breach in Cold War history: hundreds crossed from the Communist East to the longed-for freedom of the West. Drawing on dozens of original interviews―including Hungarian activists and border guards, East German refugees, Stasi secret police, and the last Communist prime minister of Hungary―Matthew Longo tells a gripping and revelatory tale of the unraveling of the Iron Curtain and the birth of a new world order. Just a few months after the Picnic, the Berlin Wall fell, and the freedom for which the activists and refugees had abandoned their homes, risked imprisonment, sacrificed jobs, family, and friends, was suddenly available to everyone. But were they really free? And why, three decades since the Iron Curtain was torn down, have so many sought once again to build walls? Cinematically told, The Picnic recovers a time when it seemed possible for the world to change. With insight and panache, Longo explores the opportunities taken―and the opportunities we failed to take―in that pivotal moment. 1956 Hungarian Revolution
