If you want to elevate your learning and development role from an order taker to a strategic partner, it starts with something many leaders overlook: mindset. In this episode, I explore how the way you think about your role in learning and development directly impacts your influence, credibility, and results inside your organization.Too often, nonprofit learning professionals feel stuck reacting to requests instead of shaping strategy. But shifting from an order taker to a strategic partner isn't about changing your job title. It's about changing how you show up. I break down how your internal beliefs shape your external behaviors, and ultimately determine whether you're invited to the decision-making table.▶️ The Mindset that Separates Strategic L&D Leaders from Order Takers▶️ Key Points:00:00:00 How Mindset Shapes Your Daily Experiences00:03:50 Strategic L&D Partner vs Order Taker00:08:58 Reinforcing Cycles: Beliefs and OutcomesResources from this episode:The Psychology of Winning by Denis Waitley: https://www.amazon.com/Psychology-Winning-Qualities-Nightingale-Publication/dp/1640956441 The Power of Your Subconscious Mind by Joseph Murphy: https://www.amazon.com/Power-Your-Subconscious-Mind/dp/160459201X Self-Coaching 101 by Brooke Castillo: https://www.amazon.com/Self-Coaching-101-Brooke-Castillo/dp/0977853993 Join us at our next networking event for the Nonprofit L&D Collective on May 20: https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/join-the-nonprofit-learning-and-development-collective Join the Nonprofit Learning and Development Collective: https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/nonprofit-learning-and-development-collectiveConnect with HeatherLinkedIn: Heather BurrightWebsite: skillmastersmarket.comBook an interest call with Heather here.⭐Was this episode helpful?

"Anxiety and excitement are chemically the same reaction — context changes how we interpret it." What actually separates top GMAT performers from everyone else? In this episode of Inside the GMAT, GMAC Zach sits down with Hailey Cusimano, Director of Tutoring at Menlo Coaching, to unpack the five traits she's observed that that drive GMAT success. Through the lens of curiosity, balance, consistency, resilience, and flexibility, Hailey explains why the GMAT is less about memorization and more about critical thinking, self-awareness, and intentional preparation. Whether you're just starting your prep journey or feeling stuck after months of studying, this episode offers actionable insights to help you study smarter — not just harder. About Hailey: Hailey Cusimano is a 99th-percentile performer and a self-proclaimed standardized test nerd. Drawing from her years of experience as an instructor, she knows how to assess students' main obstacles and strategize accordingly, maximizing efficiency in short study windows. Plus, her enthusiasm is infectious, and most students find studying with Hailey actually becomes—dare we say—fun. Helpful Resources: Menlo Coaching: https://menlocoaching.com/ Register for the GMAT: https://www.mba.com/exams/gmat-exam/register Purchase GMAT Official Prep: https://www.mba.com/exams/executive-assessment/prepare Key Takeaways: The GMAT is fundamentally a critical thinking test — not a memorization test. Curiosity is one of the strongest predictors of long-term GMAT success. Reflective studying is far more valuable than simply completing large volumes of questions. Consistency matters more than cramming or weekend-only "study marathons." Burnout can quietly undermine progress, even for highly motivated students. Flexibility and adaptability are essential because the GMAT intentionally challenges rigid thinking. Top scorers are not confident all the time — they are resourceful when facing uncertainty. Students improve faster when they analyze why they got stuck, not just what they got wrong. Strong GMAT preparation requires balance between studying, work, rest, and personal life. Resilience allows students to turn setbacks, bad practice tests, and plateau periods into opportunities for growth. The best GMAT students treat mistakes as useful data rather than evidence of failure. Small, intentional daily study sessions are often more effective than infrequent marathon sessions. "Timeline creep" can happen when students study without structure, benchmarks, or accountability. Many students plateau because they over-focus on weaknesses and stop practicing holistically. The GMAT rewards thoughtful decision-making, resource management, and strategic thinking under pressure.

Anyone who's ever had to go to court or deal with the police should know and appreciate the idea of "attorney-client privilege." But now -- thanks to artificial intelligence -- there's concern of that privilege going away. Or in some cases, lawyers say it could result in jokes and offhand comments being included in official documents, creating even more problems later on.
The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
Forty Colombian farmers sat looking at her, completely unimpressed, when the cartel boss in the back of the room opened a case and a drone flew up out of it. In this episode, I sit down with Attia Qureshi, the negotiation teacher who learned her craft running State Department conflict-resolution work in cartel-controlled coca regions of Colombia, and who now teaches at the University of Michigan after a stint at MIT Sloan. Her new book Never Settle, with a foreword by Sheila Heen and endorsements from Daniel Pink, Robert Cialdini, and Chris Voss, hits shelves next week. The thing I love about her work is that she does not treat negotiation as a boardroom sport. She treats it as a daily relationship skill, the kind you practice with your barista so it is already in your hands when something hard comes up at home. In This Episode The four-step sequence Attia used to reset a room of 40 unimpressed farmers and a cartel boss with a drone, and how the same four steps work in your kitchen tonight Why "take out the trash" is the position and not the actual ask, and the one-sentence reframe that changes how you fight about household chores The fifth-grade bullying story that produced the hard shell most of us are still wearing into adulthood The seven-word test that tells you whether you are influencing someone or manipulating them Why the freeze you feel when you try to speak up is physiology, not personality, and what to do about it in real time How to know when you are giving too much to a taker, and the experiment Attia recommends before you decide to cut losses The literal glass of lemonade that turned a hostile next-door neighbor into a friendly one, and the Cialdini-backed science underneath it Why This Matters This episode is for anyone who knows what they want and goes quiet when it is time to ask. For anyone stuck in a loop with a difficult coworker or in-law that has been the same loop for three years. For anyone who has tried the assertive thing once and the people-pleasing thing once and is exhausted by both, and who wants a path that does not require a personality transplant.

“Do you want to be right or do you want to win? I want to win.” -Will Packer When Will Packer pulls up to The Pivot Podcast, the conversation goes far beyond Hollywood headlines, combining sports and business to one of the most entertaining yet educational episodes we've had. Will unpacks the real story behind his rise—from grinding it out as a young mind at at HBCU to becoming one of the most powerful producers in the game. He shares how he built a billion-dollar film resume from the ground up, turning bold ideas into box office hits while navigating an industry that rarely hands out opportunities. But this isn't just about success. Packer gets candid about the missteps, the pressure of managing money and expectations, and the moments where everything could have fallen apart. From producing cultural staples to learning hard lessons about risk, partnerships, and perseverance, his journey is a masterclass in betting on yourself—even when the odds say otherwise. From navigating Hollywood's gatekeepers to creating opportunities where none existed, his path is paved with resilience, ownership, and vision as we unpack the wins, losses, and the pivots in between—and what it really takes to turn ambition into a lasting legacy. He reflects on hits like Girls Trip, Ride Along, Think Like a Man, and Stomp the Yard to life—films that didn't just perform well, but became cultural movements. Along the way, he's collaborated with some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including Kevin Hart, Ice Cube, Queen Latifah, Tiffany Haddish, and the late Paul Walker. On day one of filming Takers, Will had to step in and defuse a tense moment when Paul nearly walked off set—quickly navigating the pressure to keep the production on track. It became a test of leadership, showing how staying composed and solutions-focused can turn a potential setback into a moment of trust and respect. Filled with inside stories, lessons and advice on staying at the top, this episode is about building confidence as a muscle, taking big leaps, and overcoming rejection in order to get doors to finally open, Will is unguarded and uses humor to share some of his most impactful moments to allow us to see a side of him we haven't before, hoping his story inspires and ignites a fire in others.

Gary continues his interview with economist Jerry Bowyer. Many details given in the Gospels are extremely important for a proper interpretation of what Jesus said and did and why. These historical and cultural clues are often overlooked, but they add depth and context to the New Testament that modern readers can and should apply to their reading and preaching of the Gospel.

https://teachhoops.com/ In every locker room, on every bus ride, and during every grueling defensive drill, your players fall into one of two categories: they are either Energy Givers or Energy Takers. This isn't about who scores the most points or who has the highest vertical; it's about the emotional and psychological "climate" a player creates around them. An Energy Giver is a "Force Multiplier"—someone who lifts the intensity of the gym just by stepping onto the floor. An Energy Taker is a "Vacuum"—someone who sucks the life out of a practice with a single eye-roll, a slumped shoulder, or a "me-first" attitude. As a coach, your most important cultural task is to identify these types early and ensure your Givers are the ones driving the bus. An Energy Giver is defined by "Active Enthusiasm." They are the players who "sprint to the huddle," who are the first to high-five a teammate after a missed free throw, and who "talk" on defense even when they are exhausted. They possess "Relational Awareness"—they know when a teammate is down and they instinctively move to pull them up. In the mid-season January grind, these are the players who keep your program from stagnating. They don't just follow the standard; they are the standard. They understand that energy is a choice, not a feeling, and they choose to invest it in the collective good. Energy Takers are often your most talented players, which makes them dangerous. Because they have "status," their negativity is contagious. They are defined by "Passive Resistance"—doing just enough to get by without ever fully "buying in." You'll see it in their "body language" after a turnover or hear it in the "quiet complaints" on the bench. An Energy Taker focuses on the "I" (their minutes, their shots, their fatigue) while the team is focused on the "We." If you allow an Energy Taker to dictate the mood of your practice, you are essentially letting a "leak" remain in your championship boat. You must be the "Chief Energy Officer" of your program. Use your next practice to perform an "Energy Audit." Don't look at the ball; look at the bench and the players transitioning between drills. Who is "filling the buckets" of their teammates? Who is "draining" them? Once you identify your Givers, publicly reward them. Make "Energy" a stat that you track as religiously as rebounds or assists. When your players realize that "Giving Energy" is a non-negotiable requirement for playing time, your culture will transform from a group of individuals into a high-voltage championship unit.

In this first part of an interview with author Jerry Bowyer, Gary discusses the economic and cultural arena of the first century.

God offers us a free gift of salvation to anyone who will believe, and we all have just as much opportunity to take Him up on the offer and be saved. The other part of that is His offer to deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Jesus, and that is a road far less traveled but even more rewarding.

Many businesses hire agencies to execute tasks: build a campaign, design an ad, launch a website. But the strongest agency relationships go beyond simple execution. A truly strategic agency sees itself as a partner in growth, focused on outcomes like revenue, customer acquisition, and brand positioning rather than just delivering assets.For Littlefield Agency, that partnership means asking “why” before saying “yes.” By understanding the real business objective, we can recommend the right solution and push back when we don't feel like something will move the needle. Strategic partners also think beyond individual campaigns, looking at the customer journey, competitive landscape, and the metrics that actually drive business growth. For us, these are also the best, most collaborative and rewarding relationships we have.So give this week's episode a listen and ask yourself, "does my agency act like an order taker or strategic partner?" If your answer is the latter, you got yourself a good one!See you next week for more Little Talks.— Sam, Roop, Claudia, and ChelseaTell us what you think!

Kliq This is back with another 11Soft hangout that starts with Big Kev vs. the concept of "checkout time" and immediately spirals into hotel paranoia, road life rules, and the eternal question of whether your toothbrush has ever been through some things. From there, Kev and Sean pivot to the halftime show discourse, why certain "talking points" become white noise, and Kev's oddly wholesome reasoning for loving physics (because if he's leaving Earth, he's driving the spaceship himself). Then it gets heavier. Kev and Sean get into the Bondi hearing, "gaslighting" vs. lying, and the frustration of watching important information stay buried forever. After that, the show swings back into pure Kliq This chaos, including smoked old fashioneds, Vince McMahon as a scotch guy, travel stories that feel like a movie, WWE allegedly blocking WrestleMania watch parties in Vegas, and a Mount Ashmore draft for the best action movie stars. Plus, an all-timer prank story featuring Owen, Davey Boy, Lex Luger, and cops who were definitely "in on it." #KliqThis #KevinNash #SeanOliver #11Soft #WWE #WrestleMania #BadBunny #ProWrestling #TheKliq #ActionMovies #MountAshmore #PodcastHeat BlueChew-Get 10% off your first month of BlueChew Gold with code NASH at BlueChew.com StopBox- Get firearm security redesigned and save 10% off @StopBoxUSA with code NASH10 at https://www.stopboxusa.com/NASH10 #stopboxpod 00:00 Kliq This #189: BAD BUNNY 00:56 Checkout is 11a 07:17 BAD BUNNY HALFTIME SHOW 13:07 Gaslighting 15:29 Smoked Old Fashioned 17:25 VKM liked Scotch 24:27 Did VKM ever ask you to move? 25:31 Working the door at a club 28:09 Picking and choosing roles 30:10 Bondi's performance at the Senate hearing 34:46 BREAK JCW LUNACY 35:16 "As a former hotel manager i will say check out is usually at 11 " 37:05 "Hopefully you guys clip the part of Big Sexy talking about how Gunther should be booked." 37:35 "I am convinced that High Kev is the best Kev!" 38:56 "Only on this show would they talk about cleaning skid marks off a toilet" 41:56 "My favorite part of the day: Listening to Kev talk about precious metals as I push my morning poop out so the fart behind it can escape" 42:50 "I'm begging to see you on Takers podcast" 47:03 BREAK STOPBOX 51:08 Opening Beck/AJ Lee promo for match 55:47 Punk vs Balor set for Elim Chamber 01:01:48 HAS TRIPLE H GONE STALE? 01:18:31 WWE Blocking Wrestlemania Watch Parties in Las Vegas 01:24:44 FOR BEST ACTION MOVIE ACTORS 01:26:44 BREAK BLUECHEW 01:28:30 Pranking Lex Luger 01:34:44 Celtic Workouts 01:35:13 Trump's Tariff on Canada/ the Gordie Howe bridge

7 Lies the Church Taught You About How Jesus Handled NarcissistsIf you've ever felt guilty for setting boundaries, saying no, or protecting your peace, it may not be conviction - it may be mis-teaching. In this episode, we expose seven common lies many Christians were taught about how Jesus handled narcissistic, controlling, or deceitful people - and why those teachings quietly keep believers stuck in guilt, exhaustion, and self-abandonment.Using Scripture and cultural context, we unpack what Jesus actually modeled: truth without appeasement, love with boundaries, forgiveness without forced reconciliation, and discernment over religious pressure. From “turn the other cheek” to “submit no matter what,” you'll learn how these verses are often misused - and how Jesus Himself confronted manipulation, walked away from danger, and protected His mission without sinning.This episode will help you release false guilt, reclaim biblical clarity, and follow Christ without sacrificing your God-given boundaries.
5 Signs God Is About to Judge the Narcissist Who Hurt YouHave you ever watched a manipulator twist reality so convincingly that you wondered when God would finally expose the truth? They may look untouchable for a season - but Scripture shows us that God's justice is never absent, only unfolding.In this episode, we unpack the biblical pattern behind manipulation through the story of Jezebel - not as a gendered label, but as a spiritual pattern still active today in relationships, families, workplaces, and even churches. You'll learn the four movements of God's justice, why His timing feels delayed, and what it actually means when God says, “Enough.”More importantly, we address where many believers go wrong - stepping into battles God never assigned—and how stepping back with wisdom, boundaries, and discernment allows God's justice to move with precision.This episode isn't about revenge. It's about restoration - God repairing what was damaged, uprooting confusion, healing your identity, and giving you peace the manipulator can no longer touch.
