At the Food Safety Summit in May, we sat down with Tia Glave, president and co-founder, and Jill Stuber, vice president and co-founder, of Catalyst Food Leaders, to discuss food safety culture and leadership trends. During our conversation, the Catalyst team discussed the advancements food and beverage companies have made in putting a focus on building and communicating a food safety culture in their plants — and what's needed to grow even further. Stuber and Glave remind companies that their workers want to be valuable, be led and be owners of the process, and proper support of the people will help them succeed. However, one of the biggest missing pieces across the board, they say, is the lack of leadership identification, training and development throughout many organizations today.

BERNINA University is the annual dealer conference hosted by BERNINA…this year in Detroit, MI. Detroit, with its rich history of industry and music, embodies a resilience and creativity that inspires us all. Just as the city has reinvented itself through sheer determination and ingenuity, BERNINA continues to evolve, driven by passion and tenacity From the engineers who craft the cutting-edge machines to the dealers who bring them to your sewing rooms, every member of the BERNINA family exemplifies the hard-working spirit that defines both Detroit and the BERNINA brand.Join us as we explore new innovations, share stories, and connect with the incredible individuals who make BERNINA the leader in sewing excellence.(1:10) Paul Ashworth, President of BERNINA of America once again opened the festivities in the first day ceremonies, followed by Christy Burcham, BERNINA of America VP of Training & Development. Christy had the honors of introducing BERNINA's new B990 swing machine…but well…we'll get to that in a minute!(2:22) This year BERNINA Owner & Chairman Hans Peter Ueltschi was also on hand to welcome those who had traveled to this gathering. Kai Hillebrandt CEO of BERNINA had a few words to share as well. The excitement grew as the B990 was introduced…but well, we'll get to that in a minute! (5:20) How did Pam Mahshie and Julian Collins feel about the atmosphere…magnetic?!(5:50) So, the new BERNINA B990 was the unequivocal star of the show. We had the unique opportunity to sit down with four people who were instrumental in bringing it to market…over the past 15 years. Meet Andi Goddard Product Manager, Johannes Schuster VP of Product Management BERNINA International, Sarah Caldwell Education Manager BERNINA International and Christy Burcham VP Education Training for BERNINA of AMERICA as they share the behind-the-scenes process that made this all happen. (17:07) Michaelynn Rose, VP of Marketing for BERNINA of America shared the marketing program that she and her team created and brought to life to introduce the B990 and Mr. Ueltschi shares his thoughts on the machine and how he feels about the team that made this all happen.(21:19) Hans Peter Ueltschi then spent time with us to share his thoughts and feelings about this amazing machine and the team that built it.(23:50) While BERNINA was making this all happen, the bernette line was also hard at work developing and launching their new straight stitch machine the b08. Hear world renown speed sewist Toni Smith (Quiltoni) explain this marvelous machine and tell us why and how she does what she does! (29:30)Then, hear bernette Product Manager Carolyn Kinder talk about her second year at bernette and the creation of the b08.(32:28) BERNINA sister companies were also in the house with new and exciting news about their new offerings. We spent time with Kristen Wermers, VP at ironing system company Laurastar, Jeremy Jefferies from fabric company Benertex and Quilting/Sewing supply company Brewer's president, Steve Jeffery.(35:40) During the event, we were actually able to track down BERNINA of America President Paul Ashworth, in between the time he was spending with the dealers, to get his impression of BERNINA University!(36:44)As at each BU, we get the opportunity to catch up with previous Sew & So guests. This year we had abundant opportunities to speak with several of them.

A study came across our desks recently that said, gamification was “just a fad.” We're going to disagree with that, and so does our guest today Dr. Dave Eng; a creative intellectual, educator, designer, & researcher focusing on games, theory, and technology. Dave serves as the faculty member of NYU's School of Professional Studies and the Principle Lead at University XP, a consulting group for game-based learning programs. He's also the founder of Bandito's Gaming, a registered 501(c)(3) social and educational non-profit organization that promotes play, community development, and learning through games. So needless to say, he knows a thing or two about how games really work. In this episode, we dive into how games have been used throughout history, the power of experiential learning, and how there are good games…and there are bad games. If you're a talent leader looking to engage your people, this is definitely another episode you're not going to want to miss. So with that, let's bring it in!

In order to make your riding comeback a lasting one, you will have to begin spending more time in the saddle than you have been recently. It makes sense, right?!  And yet, while clocking up those minutes and hours in the saddle each week can initially 'seem' to be a win... They are likely working against you and your horse in the long run. This is because when we ride for the sake of just riding (clock-in riding), we tend to become a little too 'lax' about some of the things. The basic things that lay the foundation for everything else. And when you begin to allow the small things to slide, chances are the bigger things will follow suit pretty quickly. This usually holds true for you, the rider, and your horse, especially in your training and development. So, instead of just riding for the sake of riding, I'm challenging you to begin getting a little more strategic and intentional with each of your training sessions with your horse. Yes, not just 'rides', but training sessions. Read the full post HERE https://stridesforsuccess.com/episode1316-your-riding-comeback-creating-something-you-love     I have spoken about the 3 essential elements on separate episodes of the Daily Strides Podcast which I will link to. Each post includes a list of activities you can use to help you spark ideas - and begin 'stringing' along to help you create an intentional riding plan. Planning Your Rides - Part 1:- Fun Planning Your Rides - Part 2:- Partnership Planning Your Rides - Part 3:- Training & Development   Your Comeback to Riding You are unique as a rider. So it makes sense that your journey back to regular riding will be yours and yours alone.  Keep in mind that you can look to different plans and advice for inspiration. However, each should be then tweaked to suit your individual journey and circumstances. If you would like help with your comeback to riding, make sure you check out Returning to Riding. 9 weeks to get your basics onto autopilot so that you can make the transition from passenger to ‘rider' for you and your horse. We will work together, using easy-to-follow audio horse riding lessons and weekly video reviews to help you transform your riding. Experience how you will go from feeling ‘floppy', unbalanced, and lacking confidence in your abilities when in the saddle, to gaining control of your body and aids, practicing clear communication, and actually improving how your horse goes while being ridden.  With 9 weeks of private, 1 to 1 coaching with me over a secure video, voice, and text app, you will have all the support you need – and a proven program you can re-do with your horse time and again to polish both of your skills.

304 Women's Relationships   Whether it be in the workplace, in daily life, or anywhere we go in the world, we meet exceptional individuals that make life both enjoyable and enlightening. It is vital to not only appreciate these people, but to seek out more kindred spirits to lift up and to be lifted up by. In this episode Sarah Elkins and her friends Kimberly Davis and Heather Younger discuss the importance of support and relationships in both our careers and in our down time.   Highlights Surprise someone with support. Be a champion for another. Don't judge or treat another poorly because of your own preconceived notions. Being intentional when lifting others up.  Do not contribute to the hatefulness and meanness in the world, look for the good and the hope that is inspired by those you hold dear.  Make the work worth it, but don't let yourself get overworked and overwhelmed. Everything you do, begins with you, so try to be at your best. Quotes “The folks I hire, I'm not hiring them because they're women. There's a strength about them, there's an independence about them, I can tell they're just going to get stuff done.” “I think the reason I like it is because I know they're intelligent, I can trust them, they know things I don't know.” “Sometimes I do feel so sad, and so fatigued. Like Sisyphus pushing the boulder uphill all the time, that I have to stop and refuel because I am unable to keep an even level of fight or flight because the fight or flight just feels fruitless.” “If there's one person, who changes one behavior, in an audience of hundreds of people, in my mind the impact there is worth it.”   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, When was the last time you lifted someone up, or stood beside them during a trying time? How often do you actively turn to another person on your team and as their help because they have more knowledge on a subject? If you could say one thing to the people in your life that make the work worth it what would you say? Remember Dear Listener everything you do starts with you, so make it come from a place of kindness and understanding.  And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Heather from her LinkedIn "A DYNAMIC APPROACH THAT EASILY ENGAGES THE AUDIENCE."   *Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more content: https://www.youtube.com/@heatherryounger*   Heather R. Younger, J.D., CDP, is an experienced keynote speaker, two-time author, and the CEO and Founder of Employee Fanatix, a leading employee engagement, leadership development, and DEI consulting firm, where she is on a mission to help leaders understand the power they possess to ensure people feel valued at work.   Known as The Employee Whisperer, Heather harnesses humor, warmth, and an instant relatability to engage and uplift audiences and inspire them into action.   Rooted in her belief that employees aren't just numbers on the payroll but human beings with ideas that matter, Heather's talks and workshops are dedicated to helping teams, leaders, and organizations shine by improving how they listen to, communicate with, and empower employees.   "My why is to give a voice to the voiceless at work; those employees who feel powerless or hopeless or helpless."   Heather's personal Why emerged as she sought to find meaning from her difficult experience growing up in the 1970s. As the only child of an interfaith and interracial marriage, both Heather and her Black father were shunned and excluded by extended family because of the color of their skin. While the sting of exclusion left Heather with a lot of questions growing up, it also led her to develop a high level of resilience and a deeply inspired commitment to advocate for anyone who has ever felt devalued.   Today, she credits her capacity to navigate complex social dynamics and discuss identity in the workplace to those early experiences, and is dedicated to creating opportunities for organizational leaders, teams, and individuals to learn strategies for reframing adversity while empowering leaders to change their workplaces for the better.   As a champion for positive change in workplaces, communities, and our world at large, Heather delivers clear and purposeful strategies that drive real business results – such as increased employee engagement, loyalty, collaboration, and connectivity.   The results?   - Team members feel heard, seen, and valued - Companies create safe environments and a culture of trust - Diversity and creativity are celebrated - Resilience rises - Stress falls - Productivity goes through the roof - Customer retention and referrals soar - Everyone wins – sometimes in ways they didn't even realize were possible.   Learn more at heatheryounger.com and employeefanatix.com.

About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

Upto 60% of college students suffer from poor sleep quality. As someone who is an integral part of so many people's formative years in college, what does he see are sleep challenges among them? Does it need to be that way? From 2010-2018, sleep disturbances significantly increased in college students with 25% of them having difficulties. This can have short term and long term cognitive and behavioural repercussions.  Research has found 60% of them having insomnia. This can impact academic performance. Do universities need to bring in sleep quality and mental health screening programs? Is counselling a part of IIMB? By supporting students in improving sleep, it can contribute to helping them with better memory, improved grades, less health challenges, decreased risk of falling sick, improved mood, better performance and less mental health challenges. Do universities in India have support in place for helping their students to sleep better? How would he advice students that supporting themselves with better sleep and improved health is actually beneficial to them?
