    Dans ce nouveau numéro d'IDÉES, Pierre-Édouard Deldique reçoit Arnaud Teyssier, historien du gaullisme, pour évoquer la Constitution de la Vè République alors que la France traverse une crise politique inédite sans précédent depuis 1958.  Selon lui, la Constitution est solide, capable de faire face à cette crise. «C'est un édifice puissant d'une cohérence profonde et dressé contre la tentation du déclin», écrit-il dans sa monumentale biographie intitulée «Charles de Gaulle, l'angoisse et la grandeur» (Perrin). Il l'explique dans ce nouveau numéro du «magazine qui interroge ceux qui pensent le monde». Dans cet épais ouvrage, Arnaud Teyssier explore la vie exceptionnelle de Charles de Gaulle, en mêlant rigueur historique et profondeur philosophique. Loin d'une simple biographie, le livre propose une méditation sur la grandeur politique et les angoisses quasi-existentielles qu'a connues l'homme du 18 juin. L'auteur, normalien et énarque, revient sur l'enfance de De Gaulle, marquée par une «fierté anxieuse» envers la France, selon les propres mots du général. Il souligne l'influence qu'ont eue chez lui des penseurs et des écrivains comme Chateaubriand, Barrès, Péguy, Bergson ou Maritain, qui ont nourri la vision romantique et spirituelle de Charles de Gaulle qui apparaît comme un homme tiraillé entre la lucidité politique et une quête de transcendance, entre machiavélisme et idéalisme. Le livre insiste sur la conception gaullienne de l'État : fort, souverain, garant de l'unité nationale, le général y est présenté comme profondément conscient du déclin de la France et de l'Occident, confrontés à une modernité sans repères, à une spiritualité affaiblie et à la mort des idéologies. L'auteur montre comment De Gaulle, en bâtissant les institutions de la Vè République, cherchait à conjurer le chaos de juin 1940 et à préparer la France à affronter les défis du futur. Dans l'émission, Arnaud Teyssier explique ce que Charles de Gaulle a voulu faire en créant le Vè République conçue pour lui survivre.   Programmation musicale :  Keith Jarrett, Sonate III en mi mineur - Vivace (Compositeur : Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach).

Don't miss it — we won't!   Gina Elliott is the VP of Strategy and Administration of Slick City Action Park, and she now serves as chair of the International Association of Adventure & Trampoline Parks (IATP), where she champions scalable training, safety, and culture across parks of all sizes. Jason Haycock is the Director of Strategic Accounts of Schoox, bringing eight years in enterprise HR technology to mobile-first learning for large frontline workforces. Together, Gina and Jason spotlight how digital platforms, blended with in-person training and coaching, elevate performance, reduce risk, and boost retention. In this interview, Gina and Jason talk about digital training transformation, immersive employee experience, and investing in your team Digital training transformation “Training is such a critical piece… there is a direct correlation with training and safety… transitioning to an LMS… you can push that down to the hourly employee and you're gonna get that instant notification of when it's done.” Gina contrasts “pencil-whipped” PDFs and broken binders with a mobile-first LMS that meets today's frontline where they already learn—on their phones. Digital courses, instant transcripts, and exportable records simplify audits and incident response while allowing rapid, system-wide updates without reprints or classroom bottlenecks. “It's surprising to us that we'll show up and see that they're still using paper. We really have an emphasis on meeting these employees where they are, being able to learn quickly and on the go.” Jason explains how short, role-specific modules and micro-assessments accelerate time-to-productivity for younger teams accustomed to bite-sized learning. He notes outcomes such as faster onboarding, sales lift, and reduced injuries/premiums when digital training is paired with clear expectations and live practice. Immersive employee experience “You can build the best park, but if your employees aren't trained or even understand what an immersive experience is, you've lost that guest, and it's gonna be very hard to retain them.” Gina reframes immersion as an employee mandate: blend brief videos, interactive elements, leaderboards, and hands-on tasks so every learning style is engaged and confidence builds before live guest contact. She stresses pacing: begin with a 10–15-minute orientation, verify knowledge, then layer responsibilities over 30/60/90 days instead of “300 modules” on day one. “These frontline employees… learn differently than a corporate employee… It's ongoing training in addition to what they have for onboarding.” Jason adds that evolving parks (VR next to ax-throwing, bowling, pickleball) demand agile cross-training. Quick, on-the-spot refreshers and continuing modules keep skills current as attractions and technology change, while managers observe and coach to certify real-world proficiency. Investing in your team “Make your employees feel like they're heard and they're valued. If it comes to spending that money at the beginning, do it. It's going to ultimately lead to a better customer experience, a better employee experience, and a more successful business.” Jason frames training as a proactive investment, not an expense: organizations already “pay” through turnover, weak sales, and incidents if they undertrain. Upfront investment converts training into a competitive advantage—supporting growth, reviews, referrals, and retention. “We saw a park with a 90% completion rate actually increase sales… Another park in the low twenties had turnover of 90%.Culture always has a focus on training.” Gina shares case studies linking completion rates to front-desk sales and lower turnover. She advises reading performance holistically, such as training data plus social scores, mystery shops, and sales, to target coaching. Her closing push: don't fear technology; toss the binders, start small with digital courses, and keep coaching continuously.   Find Gina on LinkedIn, or visit indoor@adventureparks.org for IATP resources and the IATP Academy.

    Data centers may power the digital world, but behind the servers are the people who make it all run and building that workforce is no small challenge. In the latest Nomad Futurist Podcast, Bryon Price and Stephanie Zimmerman of JLL pull back the curtain on the human side of the data center industry. They discuss with co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence how the data center industry attracts talent from all walks of life — from military veterans to teachers to finance professionals — while highlighting career pathways, skill transferability, and inclusive opportunities. Drawing on her own experience, Stephanie highlights the importance of guiding potential candidates into the sector and nurturing their growth from the very beginning: “I have a lot of passion around employee experience. For a lot of years, data center engineers and other roles based in a data center were often times overlooked or forgotten because people didn't know about them or didn't understand them.” A recurring theme was the value of curiosity, relationship-building, and proactive learning. Bryon and Stephanie stress that attributes such as asking questions, researching solutions, and building relationships are more important than any one technical credential. Stephanie observes: “Nobody expects you to know the answer to every single question, but they do expect you to know how to find the answer to that question.” This mindset is crucial in a rapidly evolving industry, where documented processes and ongoing upskilling are essential to success. The JLL leaders applauded efforts to demystify and democratize access to data center careers. They discuss the company's partnership with the Nomad Futurist Academy, which delivers foundational, free training to entrants of all backgrounds, helping, as Bryon puts it, to: “Give someone exactly what we need when we're looking for a data center person... a minimum set of knowledge that you would expect from somebody who's got some experience in data centers.” The conversation covers the need for industry-wide collaboration, continual education, and the integration of emerging technologies like AR, VR, and AI in workforce development. Both guests emphasize the importance of community, mentorship, and a culture that makes employees feel at home and invested in their growth. This episode offers valuable insights for anyone interested in a career in digital infrastructure, no matter their background.

From experiencing Conservation International's immersive VR storytelling at Adobe's event at the LinkedIn offices to hearing powerful testimonies about carbon markets from Georgia landowners, they explore the week's standout moments. The conversation covers the shift from innovation-focused moonshots to practical implementation, the inspiring emphasis on collaboration across every session, and the heartening international presence despite political uncertainty. Between subway adventures and a Jack-and-Rose moment at the Empire State Building, they reflect on how the sustainability community is maturing — moving beyond press releases to embedded business practices and building resilience for the long term.

    Paranormal researcher and podcaster Morgan Knudsen joins Jim to explore some of the deepest questions in the field. Morgan shares her unique family connection to the history of parapsychology, her early inspirations, and how she came to develop her “Teaching the Living” approach to hauntings. She explains why our own consciousness and emotions may play a bigger role in paranormal experiences than we realize, and why hauntings often act as mirrors of unresolved wounds. The conversation ranges from the nature of reality itself to the possibility that we may be living in something like a simulation. Morgan describes a powerful VR experience that shifted her perspective on consciousness, and she and Jim discuss the balance between frightening encounters and uplifting ones, the “trickster” element in the paranormal, and why humor and hope are essential in this field. Morgan also gives a look into her podcast Supernatural Circumstances and her work at EntitySeeker, which bring rigorous research and fresh insight to the mysteries that continue to fascinate us.
