Transformations are hard, and too often, they fail to deliver on their promise. In this episode of The Product Experience, Lily and Randy speak with Jen Swanson, CEO of Tuckpoint Advisory Group, to unpack why transformation initiatives falter and what it truly takes to succeed.Key Takeaways— Transformation requires intentionality: Real transformation isn't accidental or surface-level; it must be deliberate, comprehensive, and backed by leadership.— Avoid ‘transformation theatre': Pretending to change—without restructuring ownership, processes, or collaboration—is worse than doing nothing at all.— Start with honest orientation: Knowing your starting point is essential before plotting a path forward.— Executive involvement is non-negotiable: Transformations can't be delegated. Leadership must model the change and communicate relentlessly.— Product-led is about mindset, not just teams: Everyone should operate within the product model, but not all need to be on product teams.— Pace matters: Organisations must assess their capacity for change and determine the right balance between ambition and sustainability.— Give grace for the learning curve: People need space to be bad at new things before they get good—psychological safety is essential.Chapters0:00 – Introduction & the myth of sneaky transformations1:01 – Jen's background and path into product2:53 – What transformation really means5:53 – Defining honest orientation8:00 – What is transformation theatre?12:09 – When real change feels fake13:04 – The importance of executive commitment16:04 – Why transformations fail19:11 – Common catalysts for transformation22:06 – Product-led vs product thinking25:00 – Who's in the opOur HostsLily Smith enjoys working as a consultant product manager with early-stage and growing startups and as a mentor to other product managers.

In this inspiring episode, Baylor Barbee dives deep into the significance of consistency in achieving long-term success. Referencing a powerful quote from his friend Lamonte Harris, CEO of Prominent Sports and Entertainment, Baylor challenges the quick-fix mindset and emphasizes the value of steady, persistent effort. Baylor highlights the difference between superficial success and deep-rooted achievements. Using the metaphor of growing bamboo and building skyscrapers, he illustrates the need for developing a strong foundation before visible success emerges. This episode encourages listeners to focus on their journey rather than comparing themselves to others and underscores the importance of resilience and long-term dedication. The secrets to achieving monumental success are patience, strong fundamentals, and a determination to stay the course amidst challenges. Key Takeaways: Consistency often goes unnoticed until significant change occurs. Sustainable success requires patience and the development of a strong foundational base. Everyday consistency in efforts can lead to extraordinary long-term results. External validation may take time; internal fulfillment should drive perseverance. Observing others' quick successes should motivate rather than discourage longer journeys toward greater goals. Notable Quotes: "Consistency looks like nothing until everything changes." "You can only grow as high as how low your roots are." "If you can go to bed at night and look yourself in the mirror and say, look, I gave my absolute all today, then you should be able to sleep good." "I was overdrafting just to put gas in my car, just to be able to go talk for free." "Your journey is at the end of the track."

YOU - The Master Entrepreneur - A Guide to True Greatness with Stan Hustad
I tell stories. That's what I do. And today I want to tell you some stories about Memorial Day, and being on the radio, and how old time towns celebrated Memorial Day many years ago. And then I want to tell you about my friend Brennan... He is the one that the title of the program is all about. So please take about 15 minutes to be inspired, and perhaps challenged, and perhaps be thankful for those who are not here, but because they're not, you are here! Then please take some time to tell me your Memorial Day memory and perhaps your transformation story. And now here is what Stosh has to say about the show! “He Threw Himself on the Grenade for Me” — A Memorial Day Story of Transformation This is Stan, and I want to welcome you to a story that's more than a Memorial Day message. It's about memory and meaning, about service and sacrifice, but above all—it's about transformation. From Bike Parades to Battlefields I remember when Memorial Day fell on May 31st, not just on the Monday that made for a three-day weekend. It was a sacred day, a break in the normal rhythm of life. In my small town, we'd decorate our bikes with crepe paper and flags and trail behind the veterans as they marched through Main Street. The parade ended at the cemetery, where taps echoed through the air and spent shells from the 21-gun salute became childhood souvenirs. It was a holiday, yes—but one wrapped in reverence. The Day I Entered the World of Radio Another Memorial Day stands out for me. It was during the time I made a dramatic career pivot—from teaching to broadcasting. I was still juggling both, working full-time at school and studying broadcasting by night. We were told there'd be no class that holiday Monday, and we all sighed with relief. But then our instructor dropped a little truth bomb on us: “Enjoy it. It's the last holiday you'll ever have off. Radio doesn't stop.” And he was right. From that day on, I worked holidays. No more time off. Why? Because someone had to be there—on air, in voice, speaking truth, remembering, reminding. That's what transformation demanded of me: to step into a new calling and stay present, even on days of rest. Brennan Manning and the Weight of Sacrifice But the story that defines Memorial Day for me isn't mine. It belongs to Brennan Manning. You may know him as the compelling speaker and author who shared deeply about grace, addiction, and faith. I had the privilege of picking him up once for a speaking engagement at our church. As we drove, he quietly mentioned that “Brennan” wasn't his real name. He shared the story behind it. During the Korean War, a grenade landed in the trench where he and a few others were huddled. A friend of his—without hesitation—threw himself on the grenade. It killed him but saved Brennan and the others. Brennan told me, “He didn't just die for his country. He died for me.” Think about that. “No greater love has anyone than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.” That act transformed Brennan. But it also burdened him. He carried guilt. He wrestled with the question, *How do I live a life worthy of that sacrifice?* That guilt led him into addiction, then into recovery—and ultimately into ministry. He confided that he always needed to have someone from AA on call. Just in case. Just to remember he wasn't alone. Transformation, he reminded me, doesn't always happen in a straight line. It's messy. It's humbling. It's painful. But it's real. Memorial Day: A Time for Remembering and Reimagining As we honor those who laid down their lives this Memorial Day, let's also remember the living legacies of transformation they leave behind. Some gave their lives in uniform. Others gave their lives in other ways—serving, sacrificing, showing up. Brennan's friend didn't just save a life—he transformed one. And Brennan, for all his brokenness, turned his life into a source of transformation for others. A Few Takeaways to Reflect On: • Transformation often begins with sacrifice—someone gives up something, sometimes everything, so another can live, grow, or thrive. • Guilt can hinder growth unless we find community and purpose to work through it. • Old voices still speak—and if we've lived long enough, it's probably because we've learned something worth sharing. • Radio, like life, never turns off. We stay “on the air” because someone may be listening, someone who needs our words. Final Thoughts: Entering the Transformation Zone We don't need to wait for a national holiday to start living transformed lives. But Memorial Day gives us a moment to pause, reflect, and commit. Transformation isn't just about changing jobs or habits. It's about deeper shifts—of heart, spirit, and perspective. Maybe this summer is your time for that. Maybe this is your moment to enter the transformation zone. Tell your story. Receive someone else's. And like Brennan, may your life—no matter how imperfect—become the spark for someone else's transformation. Thanks for listening. Till next time, Stan

In Act 1 of this moving two-part arc, we met Charles Moore—alumnus and now Director of Programs and Operations at Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA)—who shared his remarkable journey from a childhood without parents, to his incarceration at age 34, and how he transformed 17 years behind bars into a life rich with education, creativity, and connection. That first episode explored the healing power of the arts and how they can foster purpose, growth, and community even in what could be the most isolating of environments. Act 2 picks up right where we left off, diving even deeper into Charles's journey. We learn that he's been part of RTA for over 20 years, and that transformation was made possible because, as Charles puts it, “somebody believed in me.” He opens up about reentry into society, and how the arts played a crucial role in re-learning essential life skills. The conversation expands to spotlight arts programs for incarcerated individuals across the country, and turns toward legacy—what Charles hopes to build and leave behind. With reflections on leadership, identity, and the power of belief, this episode is filled with insight, vulnerability, and inspiration.

#358 In this episode, Guy interviewed Adam Butler about his transformative journey with dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and other psychedelics. Adam shared his story of hitting rock bottom, battling alcoholism, and experiencing an awakening that transformed his life. They discussed the misconceptions about happiness being tied to external factors and how psychedelics helped Adam explore and confront his inner demons. Adam explained the unique aspects of DMT, its profound impact on mental health, and how it's different from other psychedelics. He also talked about his book, which serves as a guide to understanding and using DMT for personal growth and healing. The conversation delves into the broader implications of psychedelics for consciousness, mental health, and spiritual awakening, emphasizing the power of self-exploration and inner work. About Adam: Adam Butler is a psychedelic philosopher and passionate DMT psychonaut focusing on mental health, neuroplasticity, self-exploration, and the extreme limits of human potential and ability. Combining an academically trained intellect, empathetic heart, and life-hardening experiences, Adam has found his niche in helping others overcome the fear associated with PTSD, depression, sexual repression, and addiction. By incorporating psychedelic compounds with deep meditation, lucid dreaming, and tantric practices he has changed from being an over worked, over-weight, stressed-out alcoholic asshole into a balanced, healthy, and sober friend and mentor to many.

Unser heutiger Gast hat an der accadis Hochschule Bad Homburg BWL studiert und dort ihren Bachelor abgeschlossen. Anschließend begann sie ihre Karriere in namhaften Unternehmen der Finanz- und Handelsbranche, darunter Stationen bei der Deutschen Bank, Allianz und OTTO. Sie verantwortete Marken- und Kommunikationsstrategien im In- und Ausland, war Head of Trade Marketing B2C bei Gebr. Heinemann und setzte schließlich mit ihrer eigenen Markenberatung Impulse für erfolgreiche Transformations- und Kommunikationsprozesse. Heute ist sie Geschäftsführerin einer schnell wachsenden Einrichtung für frühkindliche Bildung, bei der sie ihre Leidenschaft für Employer Branding, Kulturentwicklung und Customer Experience gezielt einsetzt. Mit ihren Prinzipien von Freiheit, Anstand und echtem Miteinander zeigt sie, wie „New Work“ bereits in der frühkindlichen Betreuung verankert werden kann – und warum diese Phase die Basis für unsere zukünftige Arbeitswelt ist. Seit acht Jahren beschäftigen wir uns in diesem Podcast mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt, statt ihn zu schwächen. In fast 500 Gesprächen haben wir mit wahrscheinlich mehr als 600 Persönlichkeiten darüber gesprochen, was sich für sie geändert hat und was sich weiter ändern muss. Welche Rolle spielt frühe Bildung, wenn es um die Entwicklung einer neuen Arbeits- und Führungskultur geht? Wie lassen sich Konzepte aus dem Branding- und Kommunikationsbereich auf die Gestaltung von Lern- und Arbeitsumgebungen für Kinder übertragen? Und warum ist ein tiefes Verständnis für Menschen – ob groß oder klein – essenziell, um Veränderung und Wachstum in Unternehmen voranzutreiben? Fest steht: Für die Lösung unserer aktuellen Herausforderungen brauchen wir neue Impulse. Deshalb suchen wir weiter nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näher bringen. Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen.

In 2010, the Association for Information Systems formed a special interest group () to nurture an international community of academics that study the role of digital technologies in fostering environmentally, economically and socially sustainable development. Fifteen years later, we sit down with , the current SIGGreen president, to reflect on the progress we have made. What do we know about how digital technologies help greening our planet? What efforts in empirical, theoretical, and design work is still needed? Is our role to understand the role of digital technologies or do we need to push and enact change ourselves? We conclude that environmental questions and problems are now firmly on the radar screen of our discipline but more work needs to be done for information systems academics to transform the way we think about and use digital technologies.

ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
This episode explores the role of protection magic as a historically grounded response to war, oppression, and systemic violence across diverse cultural and temporal contexts.Drawing on peer-reviewed academic sources, it examines how magical practices—rituals, talismans, verbal formulae, and spirit invocations—have been used as forms of spiritual defence and political resistance. From Mesopotamian anti-witchcraft rites and Greco-Roman defensive curses to medieval Christian amulets, Renaissance grimoires, and the Magical Battle of Britain, the lecture situates protection magic within broader religious, social, and cosmological frameworks.Special attention is given to non-Western and postcolonial contexts, including the ritual technologies of Haitian Vodou during the revolution, Obeah in the British Caribbean, Yoruba warrior rites, and Andean protective ceremonies. The discussion also considers contemporary expressions of magical protection, including digital activist magic, Chaos Magic, and the esoteric disciplines of Damien Echols under carceral conditions.CONNECT & SUPPORT
This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th-21st Century philosopher, ethicist, and theorist of the ethics of care, Virginia Held, from her 1990 article Feminist Transformations of Moral Theory It focuses upon why she believes a radical (rather than reforming) transformation of moral theory needs to be carried out - in particular because women's voices, needs, and concerns have been neglected throughout the history of moral theory.

The children of Israel journeyed out of Egypt and wandered in the wilderness for 40 years. It was an 11-day journey, yet it took 40 years. In this powerful message, Ps. Jurgen shows us the lessons we can learn from that story.
In Act 1 of this powerful two-episode arc, Teaching Artistry with Courtney J. Boddie welcomes Charles Moore, an alumnus and now Director of Operations at Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA) for Episode 77: “Transformations of a Credible Messenger“. Charles shares his extraordinary journey—from an early childhood spent with family but without his parents, to the challenges of finding work, and ultimately, to his incarceration at age 34. What could have been a story defined by isolation became one of profound transformation. Over the course of his 17-year sentence, Charles turned to education and the arts to rebuild his sense of purpose and to find a vibrant, supportive community. This episode is equal parts deep and inspiring, shining a light on the power of human resilience and the role the arts can play in redemption and healing.

Chris Sims: Middle Management, The Forgotten Layer in Agile Transformations Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Chris Sims recounts his experience with a rapidly growing startup that decided to adopt Scrum to address slowing delivery. When a VP championed the initiative, Chris provided training that generated excitement at the team level. However, they overlooked a critical component: the middle management layer. As teams embraced Scrum, they found themselves caught between multiple sources of direction—their direct managers, project managers, and newly established Product Owners with backlogs. This created confusion as middle managers, who weren't included in the transformation discussions, continued operating in their traditional ways. The result was teams appearing busy yet delivering slowly. Chris emphasizes the importance of considering how management roles evolve during agile transformations, deliberately redefining job descriptions, and helping managers find ways to bring value in the new structure rather than undermining it unintentionally. Self-reflection Question: In your organization's agile transformation, how are you addressing the needs and concerns of middle managers whose roles might be significantly impacted?
