Registration is now OPEN for the November 2026 cohort of my Japan Leadership Experience: https://kbjanderson.com/japantrip/What changes when leaders stop learning alone—and start learning together?Leadership development often focuses on individual insight: reading, listening, reflecting. But some of the most meaningful shifts in leadership don't happen that way.They happen when leadership teams go see, ask questions, and reflect together.That shared experience becomes a catalyst—aligning leaders around a new way of seeing their organization, supporting one another in practicing new behaviors, and driving lasting transformation.In this episode of Chain of Learning, you'll learn why immersive experiences can transform how leadership teams align, learn, and develop—and why learning in context often leads to change that lasts.Drawing on examples from my Japan Leadership Experience, we look at what happens when leadership teams step away from the day-to-day pressures of their roles and create space to learn and reflect in new ways.Shared experiences give leadership teams something powerful: a common reference point for how they want to lead and improve—accelerating organizational transformation.In this episode, we explore how to:Shift from learning as an individual activity to learning as a leadership team practiceCreate alignment by seeing and reflecting on the same thingsMove from “What did I learn?” to “What are we seeing differently?”Turn shared insights into new leadership behaviors back at workUnderstand why immersion and context matter when developing people-centered leadershipIMPORTANT LINKS:Full episode show notes with links to other podcast episodes and resources: ChainOfLearning.com/67 Check out my website for resources and ways to work with me KBJAnderson.comFollow me on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kbjandersonDownload my free KATALYST™ Change Leader Self-Assessment: KBJAnderson.com/katalyst Learn more about my Japan Leadership Experience: kbjanderson.com/japantripRELATED EPISODES:Episode 25 | Getting Results Through the Power of Serious Leadership with Kecia Kelly and Amy ChaumetonEpisode 20 | How to Coach Executives and Influence Change with Brad ToussaintEpisode 48 | Make Leadership Meaningful: From Tools to Purposeful Impact with Josef ProcházkaEpisode 67 | Why Lifelong Learning Is the Foundation of Influence (and Can Limit Your Impact)Episode 4 | Leading for Impact: The Power of Being Over DoingEpisode 17 | Leading Change from the Middle with Pennie SaumTIMESTAMPS FOR THIS EPISODE:1:30 The gap between inspiration and the system you return to2:46  Three conditions that most leadership development is missing.4:13 The fundamental difference when others are learning beside you vs. learning alone4:47 How Jim, Healthcare COO,  accelerated transformation by inviting his team on the Japan Leadership Experience6:49 Transformations that past Japan Leadership Experience have experienced in accelerated learning and sustaining excellence in their organization10:34 Unlocking shoshin - the beginner's mind - through immersive experiences12:04 The benefits of observing Japan employees and companies in person14:22 The depth of connection that forms when you learn together16:43 Why shared learning is important for leaders to make changes that sticks18:55 The cultural impact of the Japan Leadership Experience21:31 The deepest leadership changes that come from shared learning and shared leadership Registration is now OPEN for the November 2026 cohort of my Japan Leadership Experience: https://kbjanderson.com/japantrip/

In today's digital age, the success of technology transformation projects actually has very little to do with technology, and everything to do with the people managing them. In our latest podcast “Successful Court Tech Transformations Start with People: Why Change Management Matters in Court Modernization”, we sat down with Sarah Peterson, Associate Director at Guidehouse and expert in change management. After listening, you'll understand: - How to get staff excited about new technology - Communication strategies for internal and external stakeholders - Common missteps in change management and tips on how to avoid those mistakes

Ibrahima Fall, dirigeant de Hommes & Décisions, président-fondateur de l'Institut du Travail Réel et intervenant à Polytechnique exécutive éducation. il est de ces invités qu'on attend depuis longtemps : un homme qui pense vraiment, qui ne cède rien sur les mots parce qu'il ne cède rien sur les choses. Je l'ai découvert grâce à Emmanuel Duez, qui me l'a recommandé et je comprends pourquoi. Dès les premières minutes, j'ai senti que cet épisode allait bousculer beaucoup d'idées reçues sur le management, le leadership et la transformation des organisations. Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de la différence fondamentale entre le travail prescrit et le travail réel et pourquoi ignorer cette distinction fabrique du malheur dans les entreprises. J'ai questionné Ibrahima sur ce qu'il appelle le "trétentisme", cette fuite en avant qui consiste à soigner les individus plutôt que de soigner le travail lui-même. Nous parlons aussi de la confusion entre changer et transformer, entre problème et situation, entre esprit critique et esprit de crête. Et bien sûr, nous n'évitons pas l'IA — non pas pour savoir quel outil utiliser, mais pour nous demander ce qu'on a vraiment intérêt à lui confier. Ibrahima pose une question que presque personne ne pose : est-ce que parce que c'est techniquement possible, c'est forcément souhaitable ?3. CITATIONS MARQUANTES"Tout ce qui se fait sans le réel va périr avec le réel." (28:34)"Ce n'est pas le management qui donne du sens au travail, c'est le travail qui donne du sens au management." (09:27)"L'IA, je la considère comme un voleur très compulsif. Je ne lui donne pas mon portefeuille à garder." (44:47)"Les limites de mon langage sont les limites de mon monde. On a besoin de fertiliser le regard." (22:16, citant Wittgenstein)"Il n'y a pas de bien-être sans bien vivre, il n'y a pas de bien vivre sans bien faire." (27:04)4. IDÉES CENTRALES 1. Le travail réel vs le travail prescrit (00:54 – 05:00) Quelle que soit la qualité des procédures, les gens mobilisent toujours leur intelligence pour faire face à l'imprévu. Ce gap entre prescrit et réel, c'est là que vit l'innovation — et c'est ce que la plupart des organisations nient. Ignorer le travail réel, c'est fabriquer du désengagement et de la maladie. Pourquoi c'est important : C'est le fondement de tout le reste. Si on ne reconnaît pas que travailler c'est toujours plus que ce qui est écrit, toute démarche managériale repose sur du sable.2. Changer ≠ Transformer — et confondre les deux coûte cher (16:57 – 20:03) "Changer" vient de cambiare (échanger) — on peut changer un process du jour au lendemain. "Transformer" vient de transformare (métamorphoser) — ça ne se décrète pas. Entre 60 et 80 % des projets de transformation échouent précisément parce qu'on fait du "transformisme" : du changement habillé en transformation. Pourquoi c'est important : Toutes les entreprises se réclament de la transformation. Presque aucune ne comprend ce que le mot signifie vraiment.3. Le problème n'est pas un problème — c'est une situation (21:16 – 23:05) Un problème, on peut en faire le tour et le résoudre (le dissoudre). Une situation, on est pris dedans — il n'y a pas de solution, juste des arrangements et des issues possibles. L'IA excelle à résoudre des problèmes. Elle ne dit rien sur les situations. Pourquoi c'est important : La quasi-totalité des défis réels en management sont des situations, pas des problèmes. Penser qu'une loi, un process ou une IA va "résoudre" ça est une illusion dangereuse.4. L'IA augmente les facultés, pas le jugement (33:32 – 46:47) Plus on a de facultés, plus on requiert du jugement pour les orienter. Or le jugement, ça se nourrit de culture, de temps, d'expérience — pas d'optimisation. La vraie question sur l'IA n'est pas technique : c'est de savoir quels métiers on a intérêt à lui confier, et lesquels nécessitent d'être "encastrés dans le contexte humain". Pourquoi c'est important : On se trompe de débat sur l'IA. Le vrai enjeu est philosophique et éducatif.5. Manager, c'est formuler des problèmes — pas les résoudre (49:07 – 54:25) Résoudre des problèmes, c'est le niveau inférieur de l'intelligence. Un vrai manager/leader formule de nouveaux problèmes, voit ce que les autres ne voient pas, et crée les conditions pour que les équipes fassent un travail de qualité. C'est ce qu'Ibrahima appelle le "travaillement" — travailler sur le travail. Pourquoi c'est important : Ça redéfinit radicalement ce qu'on attend d'un manager et explique pourquoi séparer "leadership" de "management" est une erreur intellectuelle majeure.5. QUESTIONS POSÉES DANS L'INTERVIEWQu'est-ce qu'on appelle le travail réel, et c'est quoi la réalité d'une certaine manière ? (00:24)Comment se fait-il qu'autant d'entreprises semblent déconnectées du réel — ou est-ce une vue de l'esprit ? (05:03)Est-ce qu'il ne manquerait pas aux dirigeants d'avoir vraiment "fait le job" sur le terrain — pas une journée d'exploration, mais un mois ou deux ? (08:02)Est-ce qu'il y a seulement une vraie formation au management — ou est-ce que le management n'est pas censé être une école de l'expérience ? (10:19)Quand tu parles de "diplomatie des disciplines", à quoi tu fais concrètement référence ? (13:10)Comment fait-on bouger les lignes dans une culture d'entreprise ? Par où on commence ? (16:20)Est-ce que la même problématique ne s'applique pas en politique — on rajoute des process alors qu'il faudrait transformer ? (21:02)C'est quoi le mot le plus mal utilisé en entreprise en ce moment ? (23:05)Comment toi tu travailles avec l'IA — comment tu trouves l'équilibre entre ce que tu lui délègues et ce que tu gardes ? (44:17)Les gens ne veulent plus être managers : comment tu lis cette tendance ? (50:42)6. RÉFÉRENCES CITÉESPersonnes & penseursGaston Berger — philosophe et directeur de l'enseignement supérieur (années 50). Formule : "voir loin, voir large, analyser en profondeur, prendre des risques, penser à l'homme." Aussi : "Les machines sont comme les habitudes, elles asservissent les faibles et affranchissent ceux qui ont des choses à dire." (15:02 / 45:46)Karl Krauss — satiriste viennois début XXe. "Parler c'est penser" / "La quantité n'est pas une pensée, mais que la quantité dévore la pensée, c'est une pensée." (20:03 / 24:04)Ludwig Wittgenstein — "Les limites de mon langage sont les limites de mon monde." (22:16)Jean-François Lyotard — philosophe. "Dans un univers où avoir du succès c'est gagner du temps, la pensée n'a qu'un défaut incorrigible : celui de le faire perdre." (35:37)André Maurois — écrivain (années 20). Sur le bon sens : "lorsque la raison l'emporte sur le sentiment, et que l'expérience l'emporte sur le raisonnement." (35:37)Paul Valéry — cité sur les mots qui "chantent plus qu'ils ne parlent." (23:22)Napoléon — "Je ne pense pas vite, j'ai pensé avant." (35:37)Henry Mintzberg — cité sur l'erreur de séparer leadership et management. (49:07)Jacques Ellul — "éthique de la non-puissance" (≠ éthique de l'impuissance) : être capable de faire mais décider de ne pas faire. (39:42)Marcel Just — concept d'algébrose : quand la représentation ne représente plus rien, quand on est dans une abstraction folle. (59:34)Jacques Lemuel — consultant années 70. Sophisme de l'efficacité : "ce qui est efficace est vrai, or ce qui est vrai est juste, donc ce qui est efficace est juste." (56:53)Jacques Baudrillard — "journalisation de la pensée" (ce qu'on dit est valable pour le jour, après c'est fini). (56:04)Emmanuel Duez — a recommandé Ibrahima Fall à Gregory.

(38:43)Loi de Gabor — "tout ce qui est techniquement possible sera fait, quel que soit le prix à payer." (38:43)Tribune dans la presse — le président de Veolia et le président du groupe Française des Jeux, appelant à une rénovation intellectuelle des entreprises. (20:03)7.

Most physical therapy clinics market the wrong thing.They promote visits, treatments, and techniques — but patients don't actually want those things. What they want is the outcome: getting back to running, lifting, sports, or living pain-free.In this episode, Jimmy McKay and Dave Kittle explore how PT clinic owners can shift from transactional care to transformation-based care.Drawing insights from thinkers like Seth Godin, Gary Vee, Rory Sutherland, Chris Voss, and Chris Do, they explain how better positioning, marketing, and communication can turn a one-time patient into a long-term relationship.They also discuss why selling programs beats selling packages, why vanity metrics like social media views don't build clinics, and how the first phone call with a patient may determine whether they ever become a client.If you're a clinic owner trying to grow revenue, improve patient engagement, and create a stronger brand, this episode will change how you think about your business.What You'll Learn• Why patients buy outcomes — not treatments• How to position your clinic as a transformation machine• Why social media views don't equal patients• How to turn a $10K client into a $70K lifetime relationship• The difference between selling programs vs packages• Why the first phone call determines patient conversions• The importance of asking better intake questionsGuests & ResourcesDave KittleWebsite: https://conciergepainrelief.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thedavekittleshow/featuredTony MaritatoYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/MedicareBillingSponsorsSaRA Health — https://sarahealth.comEMPOWER EMR — https://empoweremr.comU.S. Physical Therapy — https://usph.com

Dans cet épisode de Yes We Care, Faustine Duriez reçoit Michaël Dandrieux, sociologue (docteur à la Sorbonne), co-fondateur d'Eranos, enseignant à Sciences Po et conseiller de grandes organisations (L'Oréal, Pernod Ricard, Chloé, Air France…). Son sujet : ce que les KPI ne captent pas — l'invisible qui fait (ou défait) une organisation : la confiance, l'imaginaire, le désir, la reconnaissance… et surtout l'espoir. On parle de transformations qui échouent, de culture d'entreprise (“the way we do things around here”), de ce qui se joue quand un leader part… et de pourquoi la matière humaine n'est pas un “soft sujet” mais le cœur de la stratégie.

In this sixth episode in our series on Winning Every Living Day™, we have now entered the Fire Horse Energy of Intense Challenges and potential Transformations. In this time of awareness, when we can let go of everything that no longer serves us and step into our new self, ready to embrace our authentic and newer way of being, I introduce the idea of Resiliency to focus on! As women, this is our time to step into our power and feminine way of BEing! Let's start February 2026, let's focus on Resiliency to be one of our guiding lights this year. Life is not always fair; it can sometimes be downright unjust and undeserved. Some people start out life with a whole host of challenges, difficulties and disadvantages while others seem to be born with a golden spoon in their mouth. Where each person winds up, in the long run, is often a combination of outer resources, goal setting, inner drive, hard work, focused vision on a dream, mentoring and support. We want to support all women to Win Every Living Day-focused on the Dream that they would love for their life. Along the way, when we have old wounds, hurts, and traumas to heal, one mindset that can help guide our course is Resiliency!

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! Dr. Dhaval Desai, an Atlanta-based internal medicine–pediatrics physician and former hospitalist director, shares his path from studying economics and Spanish and teaching high school to training abroad and leading a 30-physician hospitalist group at Emory St. Joseph's with a split clinical/administrative role. He describes how COVID-era pressures and a new baby contributed to burnout, sleep and mood issues, and seeking therapy and medication, later deepening his advocacy through a memoir and work with the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes Foundation, noting about 400 U.S. physicians die by suicide annually. After being rejected for a chief wellbeing officer role and facing institutional limits on speaking publicly, he hired an executive coach and resigned, concluding loyalty can hold physicians back. He pivoted to direct primary care by purchasing a retiring physician's practice, citing autonomy, fewer patients, and reduced bureaucracy as key to preventing burnout. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Physician Loyalty Can Become a Career Trap: Dr. Desai learned that his loyalty to his institution, patients, and colleagues was actually holding him back from making necessary career changes. His executive coach's blunt advice - "Nobody is going to give a shit if you leave tomorrow" - proved true when he resigned. Healthcare systems will move on, regardless of individual contributions, and physicians need to recognize when loyalty is preventing them from pursuing fulfillment. Institutional Control Compromises Professional Integrity: Large healthcare systems often restrict physicians' ability to speak freely and advocate for what they believe in, even on humanitarian issues. Dr. Desai's experience being called in after writing an op-ed about ICE raids in hospitals showed how "the firm" can force physicians to compromise their values. This institutional pressure, combined with being passed over for the Chief Wellbeing Officer position, revealed that systems may pigeonhole physicians regardless of their capabilities. Direct Primary Care Offers Control and Prevents Burnout: Transitioning to a Direct Primary Care (DPC) model allowed Dr. Desai to reclaim control over his schedule, patient panel size, and work-life balance. By eliminating insurance billing bureaucracy and middle management, he now spends 30-60 minutes per patient visit instead of documenting for 6 hours daily. This autonomy - combined with ongoing therapy and medication - has eliminated the "dread of going to work" and allows him to pursue advocacy, media, and other passions without institutional gatekeeping. Meet Dr. Dhaval Desai: Dr. Dhaval Desai is a dual board-certified Internal Medicine and Pediatrics physician who transitioned from hospital leadership into Direct Primary Care to practice medicine with deeper connection and purpose. He is the author of "Burning Out on the COVID Front Lines..." and host of the podcast SEEN IN FULL, where he explores burnout, identity, advocacy, and the human experience in modern work and life.

Avec Sabine Huynh Lecture par Dominique Reymond Entretien mené par Francesca Isidori Figure majeure de la poésie américaine, Anne Sexton est l'autrice d'une œuvre poétique composée de plus d'une dizaine de recueils précurseurs. Ses poèmes explorent des thèmes aussi divers que l'enfermement psychiatrique, la féminité et le corps, le désir, l'enfantement, la famille, l'amour, l'écriture… Depuis 2022, les éditions des femmes-Antoinette Fouque ont entrepris de faire découvrir son œuvre, injustement méconnue du grand public jusque-là avec la parution de Tu vis ou tu meurs (2022) et Transformations (2023) et Folie, fureur et ferveur en 2025. À lire – Anne Sexton, Folie, fureur et ferveur, Œuvres poétiques (1972-1975), trad. de l'anglais (États-Unis) par Sabine Huynh, éd. des femmes-Antoinette Fouque, 2025

In this episode of the REB Podcast, editor Liam Garman sits down with Sean Hanneberry, CEO of Professionals, for a candid conversation about leadership, culture, and steering a national network through a once-in-a-generation brand transformation. Hanneberry reflects on leading one of Australia's most recognisable real estate brands through a major rebrand in 2025, unpacking the realities of rolling out change across a vast membership base – and the challenges that inevitably come with it. He shares what it takes to modernise a legacy brand without losing the trust of the people who built it. The discussion explores the tension between innovation and stability, particularly when it comes to proptech adoption. Hanneberry offers a pragmatic view on why not every new solution is worth the disruption, how network leaders should assess risk, and why members should never feel like guinea pigs in the pursuit of progress. Hanneberry also dives deep into leadership within a membership model, revealing how democratic decision-making, playing to people's strengths, and elevating diverse voices can drive cohesion in an industry often dominated by individualism and ego.

What's it like to work at the quantum level? How do you know all of this stuff about me without me saying any more than hello? What do you see when you work on people? These are some of the questions that people ask me all the time. So I'm sharing very candidly what's happening behind the veil. The best I can articulate it. Get ready for a mind-bender episode. Nothing's really what we've been taught to believe it is! The Group Frequency Calibration® (GFC) I created specifically to accompany this episode will help you begin to release the distortion patterns that keep you from being aware of and celebrating your own uniqueness. Without clearing these layers of distortion patterns, you can spend your whole life wishing you were someone or something else, instead of clearing what keeps you from being aware of your own magnificence.

In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with Barbara Wittmann, a 25-year veteran of IT transformation who has pioneered the concept of "human infrastructure" - the invisible framework of trust, clarity, and collaboration that determines whether technology projects succeed or fail. Barbara shares her journey from mountain biking and logistics to SAP consulting, and how she discovered that most technology failures are actually people problems in disguise. She introduces her four-pillar model for preventing costly project detours, explains why people development should be a permanent IT budget line item (not a one-time HR initiative), and reveals how AI is raising the bar on what humans need to do best. The conversation explores psychological safety, shared mental models, limiting beliefs, and why wisdom drawn from indigenous cultures can help modern SaaS leaders build more resilient organizations.Key Takeaways[4:56] - Technology problems are almost always people problems - software can't fix misalignment, confusion, or teams that weren't brought along for the change[8:35] - Human infrastructure is the framework where departments work seamlessly together, end-to-end processes are understood, and people have artifacts to help them navigate complexity[10:14] - Shared mental models are critical - creating a high-level map of systems, data elements, and functions helps everyone align on what changes will impact[12:20] - People development should be an OPEX line item in IT budgets, not a one-time HR initiative - we upgrade servers continuously but treat people upgrades as "one and done"[16:15] - Empowering the middle layer of organizations can save about 20% on consulting spend because in-house people already have the knowledge[20:20] - The four-pillar model: Understand the problem → Condense it → Create a solution → Get people excited about it (most teams skip understanding the problem)[22:32] - The dual ecosystem approach: Train people in a cross-industry environment where they can practice without fear, then bring learnings back to their organization[25:53] - Once 25% of your middle layer adopts a new mindset, you see behavioral shifts ripple throughout the entire organization[29:00] - Indigenous wisdom teaches that everything is connected (ecosystems) and everything works in cycles - nature isn't "on" all the time[34:27] - Limiting beliefs often sound like "I can't do that, I've never done that before" - when your instant reaction is "no," pause and get curious about why[37:17] - AI should be seen as a coworker, not a competitor - the key is training our uniquely human aspects: emotional intelligence, sense-making, and asking better questions[39:38] - First step to building human infrastructure: Create psychological safety where people can voice concerns, and reconnect with your company's core mission and valuesTweetable Quotes"Most teams learn the hard way: Technology rarely fails because of the tools. It fails because the people aren't aligned to use them." - Barbara Wittmann"If your company is not really talking to each other as it is, a software is not gonna fix the issue." - Barbara Wittmann"We are upgrading servers all along, but with people upgrades, we look at it in a very old fashioned way. It's a one and done kind of thing." - Barbara Wittmann"AI models are evolving at the speed of light, and we are not upgrading our humans. What can go wrong?"- Barbara Wittmann"Your execution layer cannot delegate complexity anymore because they need to deal with it inevitably."...

This episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different reunites us with the renowned business thinker Joe Pine, whose work on the experience economy transformed how organizations define value. We join Christopher and Joe in tracing the progression from products and services to experiences, and now to transformations, where companies move beyond creating memorable moments to helping people achieve meaningful change. Through examples, definitions, and personal stories, they clarify what distinguishes an experience, why it has become central to modern economies, and how the emerging transformation economy repositions businesses as guides in their customers' journeys toward their aspirations. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Joe Pine on the Experience Economy and Changing Consumer Priorities Lochhead reflects on how Pine's book The Experience Economy revealed experiences as a distinct economic offering, separate from commodities, goods, and services. Pine defines experiences as events in which companies use goods as props and services as the stage to personally engage people and create lasting memories. They note how brands such as Starbucks intuitively staged experiences long before the concept had formal language. Today, cultural trends and research show that consumers, especially younger generations, increasingly value experiences over material possessions. Rather than accumulating things, people seek moments that feel meaningful, enjoyable, and worth remembering and sharing. Joe Pine on how Experiences Function in B2B Contexts Pine and Lochhead argue that experiences are just as critical in B2B environments as they are in consumer markets. Pine explains that the experience itself has become the most powerful form of marketing, because it earns attention, builds trust, and generates demand. They describe executive briefing centers, innovation hubs, and destination events where clients are welcomed into carefully designed environments that educate and inspire. Lochhead recalls building a Customer Welcome Center at Mercury Interactive and orchestrating every detail, from airport pickup to on-site interactions, as one cohesive journey. This stands in sharp contrast to traditional advertising, which is often fleeting and easily forgotten. From Experiences to Transformations The discussion culminates in Pine's concept of the transformation economy, introduced in his book The Transformation Economy. Transformations represent the next stage, where customers are no longer asking for moments to enjoy but for help becoming who they want to be. While experiences focus on time well spent, transformations emphasize time well invested. Joe Pine introduces the idea of encapsulation, which includes preparation before an experience, reflection afterward, and integration over time to sustain real change. Together, he and Lochhead connect this to their own work, designing not just books, but ecosystems of courses, communities, tools, and future technologies intended to guide lasting personal and professional growth.

Welcome to the award-winning FCPA Compliance Report, the longest-running podcast in compliance. In this episode, we replay a recent webinar Tom Fox participated in, hosted by EQS. The panel moderator was Steph Holmes, and the panelists were Tom Fox, Mary Shirley, and Matt Kelly. The session focuses on six key 2026 trends for ethics and compliance programs: (1) AI moving from experimentation to operational use, emphasizing deliberate scaling, human-in-the-loop oversight, governance frameworks, monitoring, and managing “shadow AI,” with practical use cases such as policy chatbots, gift/travel/entertainment reviews, and AI-enabled third-party risk lifecycle management; (2) enforcement “volatility” and unpredictable regulatory signals, with emphasis on returning to fundamentals such as documenting program inputs and outcomes, and noting continued activity, including record FCA resolutions and a DOJ whistleblower program award leading to a rapid antitrust settlement; (3) shifting employer–employee dynamics, including Gartner survey findings that 40% of employees would intentionally miss a compliance requirement to harm their organization, discussion of trust, employee sentiment, multi-generational communication differences, and the need to partner with HR while staying within organizational lanes; (4) heightened third-party and supply chain risk expectations, including cybersecurity, tariffs/tariff evasion, export controls, and the need to unify siloed risk views into a holistic third-party risk assessment; (5) anticipated increases in whistleblowing and investigation demands amid volatility, highlighting the importance of preventing retaliation, keeping reporters feeling heard through responsive communications, triage protocols, and anonymized case examples to build trust; and (6) measuring program effectiveness through a shift from outputs to outcomes, including reviewing KPIs and key risk indicators, peer review of investigations, hotline “mystery shopping,” and gap analyses against the DOJ's ECCP and compliance program hallmarks, with special emphasis on third-party documentation and ongoing monitoring.

In this sermon Pastor Hannah discusses how change is a constant in our lives. Just as a relationship with Christ changed the disciples, so to does our relationship with God lead to a transformation in us. Throughout this, Christ's light guides us in this transformation.

Outcome-Based Selling sounds powerful - but most sales transformation efforts stall because organizations still think like product companies. In this episode, we unpack what it really takes to shift from product selling to true customer centricity and enterprise sales strategy. In this episode of the B2B Sales Trends Podcast, Harry Kendlbacher sits down with Michael Oren, SVP Americas Sales at Dematic, to explore the uncomfortable truth behind outcome-based selling and sales transformation inside enterprise environments. This is not theory. It's lived experience - from Xerox to Dematic - across real organizations, real customers, and real accountability.

Welcome back, Late Boomers! We're Cathy Worthington and Merry Elkins, and in this episode, we open the door to a topic that quietly but profoundly shapes every part of our lives: mindset. If you've ever wondered how your habits of thought can influence your success, resilience, happiness, and even how you approach aging and reinvention, you're in the right place.This week, we're thrilled to welcome Michael Graham, founder of Mindset Matters Consulting. Michael's background is as unconventional as it is inspiring: from high-stakes presidential protection details and endurance triathlons, to law enforcement supervision and elite coaching, his journey is a masterclass in the power of mindset under pressure—and how mental shifts can spark transformation at any stage of life.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeIntroduction & Michael's Unique Story:We kick off with Michael's fascinating entry into law enforcement and how serving alongside the Secret Service on presidential details taught him about mindset, leadership, and decision-making under pressure.The Power of Preparation & Courage:Michael explains how training for every contingency—not just in policing, but also as an Ironman athlete—trains the mind to respond rather than react, and how these lessons apply in everyday life.How Endurance Sports Reshape Thinking:From grueling physical challenges to powerful mental visualizations, Michael reveals how focusing on the present, harnessing higher vibrations of gratitude and love, and reframing setbacks became superpowers that carried him through extreme endurance events.Defining Mindset and Breaking Old Patterns:We dive into what “mindset” really means, why it's foundational to success, and how shifting self-talk and noticing your thoughts are critical first steps to change.Mindset Shifts as We Age:Michael shares beautifully about the evolution of mindset in our later years—how we can become kinder to ourselves, focus less on differences, forgive ourselves more readily, and continue learning without shame.Leadership, Organizations & Measurable Change:We explore how intentionality, values-driven leadership, and genuine compassion can drastically improve not just individual performance, but organizational culture … and, yes, profits too!The Secrets to Successful Mindset Shifts:Michael gives actionable ways to catch negative self-talk and reset with powerful affirmations and consistency. He also draws on his own leap into consulting, encouraging listeners to notice both their longings and any lingering discontent—and to take action on what calls them.Key TakeawaysMindset is strategy, not fluff: Our thoughts shape emotions, drive actions, and ultimately create our results. Change your thinking to change your life.Notice your self-talk: The first step to change is awareness—“notice what you're noticing” and take action to re-pattern self-limiting beliefs.Preparation brings peace: Planning for the predictable makes the preventable possible, giving you strength and confidence under pressure at any age.Kindness begins with yourself: Especially as we age, give yourself grace, forgive mistakes, and never stop learning—much like a child learning to walk!Follow your...

Welcome to episode #1022 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a moment when organizational change is too often treated as a mandate rather than an experience people choose to embrace, Phil Gilbert has spent his career proving that transformation only sticks when it earns genuine buy-in. Phil is a design executive, transformation leader and former General Manager of Design at IBM, where he architected one of the largest cultural and operational shifts in corporate history, helping nearly 400,000 employees across 180 countries become more entrepreneurial, agile and customer-centered. Trained as both a designer and systems thinker, Phil brought design thinking out of studios and into the core of enterprise decision-making, reshaping how teams collaborated, how products were built, and how leaders understood their customers. His work at IBM addressed hard truths, including the company's struggles with usability and missed opportunities in the early cloud era, by treating change itself as a product worthy of rigor, investment, and care. That experience became the foundation for his book Irresistible Change - A Blueprint For Earning Buy-In And Breakout Success, which blends narrative and field guide to show how large organizations can scale transformation by focusing on people, practices, and environments rather than slogans or top-down directives. Phil's approach reframes culture as an outcome, not an initiative, arguing that lasting change emerges when employees see themselves in the future being designed. Beyond IBM, his work as an executive coach and advisor continues to focus on how leaders navigate complexity, align teams, and thoughtfully integrate technologies like AI into human systems without eroding trust or creativity. Grounded in real-world execution rather than theory, Phil's perspective challenges organizations to stop forcing change and start making it irresistible.

Sign up for Practi, a new platform that helps law firms use subscription billing.Here are the top 5 takeaways from this episode:1. The Transformation Economy is the Future of Professional Services. Professional services are evolving beyond commodities → goods → services → experiences to transformations. Clients will pay for meaningful life/business changes (opening a business, planning legacy, scaling to $1M) rather than just deliverables. Transformations subsume all previous economic levels and are best monetized through subscriptions.2. Subscription vs. Recurring Revenue: A Critical Distinction. There's a fundamental difference between recurring (predictable repeat billing) and reoccurring (periodic invoicing). True subscription models create 5-10x higher business valuations and require upfront payment, automation, and a membership mindset—not just monthly invoicing for the same service.3. Nature of Work Trumps Scope of Work. Instead of selling defined scopes (hours, tasks, deliverables), professionals should sell nature of work (bookkeeper vs. controller vs. CFO; pair of hands vs. expert vs. collaborator). This shifts focus from transactional outputs to strategic relationships and enables premium subscription pricing.4. The Billable Hour Persists Due to Inertia, Profitability, and Technology Gaps. Despite decades of criticism, hourly billing survives because: (1) it's still profitable enough, (2) switching requires overcoming massive inertia, and (3) existing legal/accounting tech is built to optimize billable hours rather than enable alternative models. Bottom-up transformation (solo practitioners first) is more feasible than top-down.5. AI Won't Replace Human Expertise—It Will Enhance It. While AI can handle execution (like robotic surgery or document drafting), clients will still want human subject matter experts for consultation, strategy, and decision-making. The key is “prescription before diagnosis”—professionals must diagnose before prescribing solutions, and AI should augment rather than replace that consultative relationship.__________________________Want your question to be answered on a future show?

Digital transformation projects continue to fail at alarming rates, 70% for digital initiatives and over 90% for AI transformations. The problem isn't technology. It's how organizations approach change and where they look for solutions.Most leaders believe transformation starts at the top, but the real answers often lie in the middle of the organization with people who see what works, what doesn't, and have been silenced by the noise.Find the full show notes at:https://workmatters.com/Why-Most-Transformations-Fail---Leadership-Wisdom-from-Barbara-Wittmann

Turning Customer Experience into Customer Transformation  Shep interviews Joseph Pine, best-selling author of Experience Economy, speaker, and cofounder of Strategic Horizons LLP. He talks about his new book, The Transformation Economy, and how businesses can go beyond creating memorable experiences to guiding customers through meaningful transformations that help them achieve their aspirations.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What is the transformation economy?  What is the difference between selling a product and creating a transformative customer experience?  How can businesses guide customers to achieve their personal or professional aspirations?  What are the benefits of customizing experiences to meet individual customer needs?  What elements contribute to a robust customer experience?  Top Takeaways:    The transformation economy is about how companies can help customers change. It is about how your business can help them achieve their aspirations.   Businesses create more value when they focus on selling the end rather than the means. Go beyond selling products and services to understanding why customers buy and use that knowledge to help them reach their goals and achieve their aspirations.  Transformation is not a one-size-fits-all. It must begin with truly understanding where the customer is starting (from) and where your customers aspire to end up (to). Carefully identify the customer's current situation, needs, and aspirations to tailor experiences that produce meaningful outcomes for them.  Sell transformation, not just products. For example, people don't buy a treadmill because they want the equipment. They want to be healthier, have more stamina, or feel better about themselves. Whether you're selling a physical product, a service, or something else, shift your mindset to the customer's desired result.   In both B2B and B2C, businesses should become trusted partners, not just vendors. That means understanding clients' deeper goals and helping them achieve success, even if it occasionally means recommending solutions outside what you sell. The focus is on the customer's outcome, not just the transaction.  In the transformation economy, companies should charge for what customers value most: outcomes. Companies are moving away from pricing based on time, materials, or products. It is focused on results.  Transformative change for customers doesn't come from a single transaction. It spans the entire journey, including the preparation before the event, reflection afterwards, and ongoing integration into daily life.  Plus, Shep and Joe share insights from The Transformation Economy and discuss companies that are putting customer transformations first. Tune in!  Quote:   "Transformations are built on top of experiences. We change through the experiences that we have.

A Race Against the Cold When temperatures plummet below freezing in Winchester, Virginia, Robyn Miller's phone doesn't stop ringing. As Executive Director of WATTS (Winchester Area Temporary Transitional Shelter), she oversees a lifesaving operation that runs 24 hours a day during the coldest months of the year.  In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael talks with Robyn about how this winter has tested her team like never before, with sustained sub-zero temperatures creating dangerous conditions for the area's homeless population. The organization's founding story serves as a stark reminder of what's at stake. Years ago, someone froze to death on Winchester's streets because they had nowhere to go. That tragedy sparked the creation of WATTS, and today, Robyn remains laser-focused on ensuring it never happens again. Two Shelters, One Mission WATTS operates through a dual-facility model designed to meet different needs throughout the day. First, the warming center at Montague Avenue United Methodist Church opens its doors from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM providing a safe haven during daylight hours. During this brutal cold snap, staff have extended hours beyond their typical 1:00 PM closing time, recognizing that many people won't seek overnight shelter for various personal reasons. Meanwhile, the overnight shelter rotates through 21 host churches across the community, currently welcoming up to 45 guests each night from 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM. This week, Christ Episcopal Church downtown serves as the temporary home, conveniently located where guests can walk directly to the entrance without needing bus transportation. Breaking Down Barriers to Safety Getting people through the door requires more than just opening it. Robyn explains that safety concerns keep many homeless individuals from seeking shelter, so WATTS has implemented strict protocols to address these fears. Staff conduct light searches to ensure no drugs, alcohol, or weapons enter the facility, creating an environment where everyone can rest without worry. Furthermore, the shelter maintains two staff members on duty throughout the night, checking on guests regularly. This vigilance proves especially critical given that many residents struggle with serious health issues, including seizures. The staff doesn't just monitor—they actively care, ensuring each person breathes safely through the night. The entry requirements remain intentionally minimal. Anyone over 18 can walk in and give a name—it doesn't even have to be their real one. Guests need only bring a light bag of necessities, a policy designed to prevent bedbug infestations while still accommodating essential belongings. Beyond a Warm Bed While immediate shelter saves lives, WATTS aims higher. The organization employs dedicated case managers who work with guests willing to take the next steps toward stability. Already in January alone, the team has housed five people and helped three others enter rehabilitation programs. Additionally, they've assisted two individuals in returning to their home communities outside the area. This comprehensive approach extends to WATTS' partnership with the Winchester Police Department's Addiction Recovery Program and their ownership of two transitional homes through a collaboration with 143 Transformations. Robyn emphasizes a crucial point: you can't simply hand someone who's been chronically homeless for 13 years the keys to an apartment and expect success. Instead, staff work daily with residents, helping them relearn or update skills for navigating systems that provide food, transportation, and other essential services. The Community Responds The warming center's current needs reflect the intensity of this winter's demands. Coffee flies off the shelves—Robyn reports they're down to their last five pounds of sugar. Guests particularly appreciate flavored creamers, a small luxury that brings comfort during difficult times. Beyond beverages, the center welcomes snacks, baked goods, and even gallons of milk. Moreover, WinReady bus cards have become invaluable. Many WATTS guests maintain employment and need reliable transportation to work, while others require rides to medical appointments. With sidewalks transformed into what local news dubbed "snowcrete" - concrete- hard ice impossible to remove - safe transportation has become even more critical. Counting the Invisible This week marks the annual Point in Time Count, a nationwide effort to quantify homelessness. Volunteers fan out across the region from Harrisonburg to Winchester, visiting encampments, shelters, and motels to ask a simple question: are you homeless? The count typically reveals around 400 people in the region, but Robyn knows the real number tells a different story. Using the McKinney-Vento Rule, advocates multiply the official count by ten, estimating approximately 4,000 people experience homelessness across the area. This discrepancy exists for several reasons: some individuals hide in locations volunteers never find, others refuse to be counted for privacy reasons, and families with children fall under a completely different counting system managed by the State Department of Education. These numbers matter beyond statistics. Federal funding for low-income housing depends directly on these counts, making accurate data essential for addressing the crisis long-term. The Coldest Night of the Year On February 28th, WATTS will host its largest fundraiser, responsible for a quarter of the organization's operational budget. The Coldest Night of the Year walk brings together hundreds of community members for a simple 2K stroll through downtown Winchester, with a more challenging 5K option winding through the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley. Last year, 800 participants braved the elements. This year, Robyn hopes for even more, especially since the event will feature guest speaker Lauryn Ricketts alongside a former WATTS guest who now works for the organization. This employee will share her firsthand experience of falling into homelessness and the tremendous effort required to escape it. The walk serves multiple purposes beyond fundraising. Guests currently experiencing homelessness watch participants pass by, seeing tangible proof that their community hasn't forgotten them. Many of these individuals grew up in Winchester—this is their home—and they often express feeling left behind as the area's costs skyrocket faster than their fixed incomes can match. A Purely Private Mission Unlike many social service organizations, WATTS receives zero state, federal, or local government funding. Every dollar comes from individual donors, fundraising events, and participating churches. This complete reliance on private support makes community engagement not just helpful but absolutely essential. Robyn runs WATTS as a business because it must be one—with insurance, electrical bills, a bus to maintain, trained staff to employ, and operational expenses that don't pause for winter storms. The recent snow has driven costs even higher, yet turning people away simply isn't an option when lives hang in the balance. Looking Ahead As this brutal winter continues, Robyn remains focused on her primary goal: ensuring no one freezes to death on Winchester's streets. The warming center stays open, the overnight shelter rotates through its church partners, and case managers continue working to transition people from temporary shelter to permanent housing. For those wanting to help, the path forward is clear. Donate supplies to the warming center at 102 Montague Avenue between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM. Sign up for the Coldest Night of the Year walk at https://cnoy.com/location/winchester or through the WATTS website. Write a check. Share social media posts. Every action counts. Because ultimately, WATTS operates on a simple but powerful principle: everyone deserves a home and a door they can close to be safe. Until that becomes reality for every person in the Winchester area, Robyn and her team will keep fighting the freeze, one guest at a time.

In dieser spannenden Podcast-Folge geht es um ein Ziel, das gleichzeitig absurd und doch ziemlich vernünftig ist: gesund sterben. Also nicht möglichst lange irgendwie durchhalten, sondern möglichst lange fit, klar und belastbar bleiben. Mein Gast Georgiy Michailov schaut darauf, was wirklich wirkt und was einfach nur gut klingt. Wir sprechen über Studien, Ernährungsweisen, Routinen und die großen Klassiker: Krafttraining, Ernährung, Schlaf. Georgiy ist Managing Partner bei SMP (Struktur Management Partner) und begleitet Unternehmen in Restrukturierung und Transformation. Turnaround ist sein Beruf. Und genau deshalb ist dieses Gespräch so interessant: Weil wir immer wieder bei derselben Logik landen, die für Körper und Unternehmen gilt. Wir können unseren Einsatz und die Prozesse beeinflussen, aber nicht das Ergebnis. Dieser Gedanke stammt aus dem Stoizismus und kann in Veränderungsprozessen jeglicher Art den Unterschied machen. Ein Gespräch über Gesundheit ohne Hype, über Evidenz statt Bauchgefühl und über die Kraft der Selbstverantwortung. Im Gespräch geht es unter anderem um: - Longevity: Was wirklich zählt und was überschätzt wird - Ernährung: Muster, Studien, Denkfehler und praktische Konsequenzen - Krafttraining als Versicherung fürs Alter - Stoizismus: Fokus auf Einsatz statt Ergebnis - Turnarounds: Was es auf Werteebene braucht, damit Transformation gelingt Über Georgiy Michailov: Georgiy Michailov ist Managing Partner bei Struktur Management Partner, einer auf Transformations- und Turnaround-Management im gehobenen Mittelstand spezialisierten Unternehmensberatung. Das Werteverständnis und die Aufgaben faszinierten ihn seit seinem Einstieg als Praktikant im Jahr 2003. Er durchlief alle Entwicklungsstufen und wurde 2009 Partner sowie 2013 Managing Partner. Heute verantwortet er strategisches Marketing, Vertrieb und Methodenentwicklung. Hier geht's zu seinem ausführlichen Profil: https://www.georgiy-michailov.de/ Als Co-Autor hat Georgiy Michailov mehrere Bücher geschrieben, unter anderem: „Geschäftsmodell-Redesign: Dimensionen bewerten, Werthebel identifizieren, Transformation gestalten – Ein Praxisbuch“ Alle Informationen zum Buch findet ihr hier: https://www.geschaeftsmodell-redesign.de/ Außerdem hostet er den Management-Podcast SMP LeaderTalks: https://www.struktur-management-partner.com/insights/leadertalks Alle Informationen zu meiner Arbeit findet ihr wie immer unter: www.hannah-panidis.de Und hier begegnet ihr mir meist tagesaktuell: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hannahpanidis LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannah-panidis-55141a145/?originalSubdomain=de Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HannahPanidisKommunikation/?locale=de_DE

If you've been hearing more about psychedelic therapy and wondering whether it's a genuine breakthrough for healing—or just the latest mental health trend—you're not alone. Many people feel curious, hopeful, and skeptical all at once. This conversation is meant to help you slow down, understand what the research actually shows, and think clearly about whether this path is right for you. In this episode of Love, Happiness and Success, I'm joined by psychiatrist and MDMA-assisted psychotherapist Dr. Scott Shannon, founder of Wholeness Center, the largest integrative mental health center in the U.S. Together, we talk about how psychedelic therapy works differently from conventional psychiatric treatment, why it can help disrupt rigid trauma patterns in the brain, and what researchers are learning about long-term healing—not just short-term symptom relief. We also spend time on the parts of this conversation that matter just as much: the risks, the ethical boundaries, and the importance of preparation, professional support, and integration. Psychedelic therapy isn't appropriate for everyone, and it isn't something to pursue casually or without careful guidance. This episode offers a grounded, responsible look at how people can think critically about safety, readiness, and what to look for in a qualified provider. As you listen, I invite you to reflect on a few questions: What kind of healing are you actually looking for? What does feeling “better” really mean to you? And how do you decide which growth paths deserve your trust, time, and care? Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Psychedelic therapy explained: promise, research, and real risks 02:31 Why psychedelic therapy differs from traditional psychiatric medication 04:55 Trauma, brain patterns, and how psychedelic therapy disrupts stuck loops 07:00 MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD and why healing can continue long after treatment 12:21 A paradigm shift in mental health: supporting the brain's capacity to heal 19:30 What MDMA actually does in therapy: safety, self-compassion, and trauma processing 25:47 Mystical experience, meaning, and the spiritual dimension of psychedelic therapy 30:09 Ethical concerns, safety risks, and how to evaluate psychedelic therapy providers 38:00 Preparation and integration: why psychedelic therapy is more than the experience itself If this conversation leaves you thinking about your own healing or growth, I want to be clear that Growing Self does not offer psychedelic therapy. What we do offer is thoughtful, evidence-based therapy and coaching for people who want to grow with intention and care. If you'd like, I'd love to help you think through what kind of support would actually be most helpful for you. I've created a simple, private way to do that. By answering just a few quick questions, we can help match you with the right therapist or coach for a complimentary consultation—someone who understands what you're navigating and where you'd like to go next. Schedule a free consultation today. Consider it a small gift from me, and a gentle next step if you're ready for one. xoxo, Dr. Lisa Marie BobbyGrowing Self
