Today's meditation explores the question: What is enough?This is one of the core questions that drove me to create this podcast.So many of us in the financial independence retire early community are trying to grow our wealth so we can reach some arbitrary number, assuming that once we get there, we will achieve freedom and everything will change.But the question is, what is enough?So often, when people reach their desired number, they think they need more or just a little more time, what's often called "one more year" syndrome.Today we explore this question of what is enough in a meditation, where we practice allowing each breath to be enough, just as it is.I hope you enjoy this meditation.

In this inspiring and uplifting episode of Rise and Thrive Conversations for Greatness, co-hosts John Merkus and resilience expert Matt Cordner dive deep into how to thrive in today's VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) world.
In this insightful discussion, we explore the complex challenges that leaders face in fostering diversity and inclusion (D&I) within organisations. From the pitfalls of superficial D&I efforts to the need for transformational approaches, this conversation uncovers the nuances of creating sustainable change. We also examine the misconceptions surrounding D&I and why meeting organisations where they are, while pushing for authentic development, is essential for long-term success. In this episode, we discuss the following:
Episode 53 | Future-Ready IT OfferingsThe Big Themes:ServiceNow's innovation: Wayne Sadin talks about ServiceNow, which Bob recently wrote about, as a first mover in the market, leading the way in creating intelligent solutions that facilitate interoperability between different applications and workflows. This innovation reflects a broader trend in the tech industry toward integrated platforms that can handle diverse business needs without forcing organizations to invest in multiple standalone tools.Interoperability focus: Vendors should prioritize creating systems that allow for seamless interoperability and integration across various platforms. Interoperability is not merely about compatibility; it encompasses the ability to facilitate data sharing and process integration among disparate systems.Multi-cloud strategies: Wayne notes the importance of multi-cloud strategies, suggesting that flexibility and the ability to connect different systems will be crucial for organizations looking to avoid vendor lock-in. In an era where no single cloud provider can meet every organization's needs, a multi-cloud approach allows businesses to select the best solutions tailored to their specific requirements.The Big Quote: “The answer for every vendor is, to facilitate interoperability, make it easy for me to do my job better. Yes, you could build a walled garden, like the cloud vendors all did . . . That's the resort of the person with the inferior product . . . I want the ability to interoperate. I want them to all think this is not a zero-sum game."

The Will To Change: Uncovering True Stories of Diversity & Inclusion
This episode was originally recorded as a Community Call and features a conversation with Bridges Holmes, VP of DEI and Sustainability at The Adecco Group.

Bridges shares insights on developing a DEI sales toolkit, conducting live training sessions, and the challenges of changing "old school thinking" within the organization.

In this episode of The TRU Leader Podcast, Tracy and Michelle delves into the national crisis of burnout and mental health issues in the workplace, citing a 2022 US Surgeon General report and a Microsoft survey showing high levels of burnout among managers. The pandemic has shifted expectations around work-life balance, with workers seeking more support to avoid overwork. The discussion highlights the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) environment's demands on staff and the need for empathetic leadership. Traditional leadership norms often involve overworking and sacrificing personal time, which can lead to burnout. Personal anecdotes illustrate the detrimental effects of such norms, emphasizing the need for new leadership practices that prioritize well-being. The podcast advocates for changing leadership norms to prevent burnout by fostering healthy work cultures and effective priority management. Leaders are encouraged to balance professional and personal lives, leveraging the tension between opposing forces like activity and rest. It stresses the importance of shifting limiting beliefs to more empowering ones and redefining success to include balance and fulfillment. Habit formation, supported by tools like fitness trackers and morning routines, is suggested to make these new norms sustainable. Tracy and Michelle invite listeners to join their FREE webinar “From Stress to Success, The Formula for Leaders to Excel Professionally and Personally” to help leaders adopt these new norms. The episode concludes by encouraging engagement through sharing, social media interaction, podcast subscriptions, and reviews.

[2:43] Bob Bowman is the CRO (Chief Risk Officer) for Wendy's. We will talk about franchising risks, merging risks, enterprise risk management, and professional development and hear about his career, which started in insurance. He worked at Macy's for several years and is now at Wendy's [3:10] We're going to talk about how and when Bob and his risk group are involved at different stages of decision-making for this global brand. [3:20] Quick plug! Bob Bowman is going to be the guest panelist for our upcoming RIMS webinar, presented by Riskonnect on December 12th. It's titled Prepare Yourself for the New Generation of Risk. The link is in this episode's show notes. Anyone who hears this interview will want to hear more from him in this webinar on December 12th! [3:45] Bob Bowman, welcome to RIMScast! [4:12] Bob's title at Wendy's is Chief Risk Officer. He has been with Wendy's for a little under 10 years. Bob tells of his time before that. He started in claims management in 1990 at Safeco Insurance. He backed into insurance as his degree is in restaurant and hospitality management. [5:38] From Safeco Insurance, Bob moved into the risk management space with help from a mentor and professional networking connections. [6:10] Bob was at Macy's for over 20 years. Macy's was going through a lot of change and transition at the time. When Bob joined Macy's, retail was vital and thriving. When Bob left Macy's, retail was just becoming aware of Amazon. Digital commerce was making itself known. [6:58] Bob had done an internship with Wendy's in college. Twenty-plus years later they made him an offer. He had loved his experiences at Macy's but everything was siloed. The offer at Wendy's was to connect the siloes and steer the ship. The pieces he had learned at Macy's had to be translated into a single strategy for success at Wendy's. [8:14] Risk management both in retail and at Wendy's is about product and process. It's all about delivering something of perceived value to the consumer, along with an experience. The experience might be the more important part of the equation. It's getting the product and experience right every time, in the perception of the customer. [9:10] Wendy's corporate headquarters hired Bob to work with the risk management team they had and develop it for organizational resilience, business continuity planning, crisis management, and enterprise risk management. [10:15] Bob tells how he referred to ISO and COSO in charting the path for Wendy's. It is now part of the way Wendy's manages every program. Every program begins with a framework selection of ISO, COSO, or another standard or industry best practices. [10:59] Food preparation and location selection are under other leaders. Bob's space is risk management in any and every program at Wendy's. He uses a consistent business model across all of the programs. [11:37] Franchising is a unique business model. It has many advantages but also comes with inherent risks. There is less control with autonomous, independent businesspeople working within a single brand with a desire to deliver a consistent experience to the customer across the franchise system. [12:46] Wendy's franchisees are autonomous but must be respectful of regulation. [13:42] The Wendy's corporate risk management group has grown since Bob started. There were six to eight risk managers in 2014. Today it is a group of about 15. [14:31] Bob discusses what is behind the growth of risk management at Wendy's. There is increasing complexity in the world, so there is increasing value in and appreciation for risk management. The way Wendy's transacts business has changed and continues to change. There are new technology risks. [16:17] When Bob started in the industry, there was a push to master tangible risks. Over the last five years, that has become a push to master intangible risks: digital data technology, network systems, cloud, hardware, software, and so forth. [16:51] RIMS plug time!

Webinar registration is complimentary for RIMS members. [19:37] Bob describes risk as uncertainty. Wherever there is uncertainty, that is risk. What are the things that need to be true to reduce that uncertainty? That's risk management. You can apply that easily to intangible risk. Bob does not have the technology background that would equip him to participate in the innovation discussion. [20:28] Bob trusts the CTO and others with technology backgrounds to guide him so he knows how to advise the C-suite. The intangible risk space is growing across nearly every aspect of the business. To be effective, Bob partners with every business function. [22:31] Wendy's attempts to simplify risk management. To Bob, if you are going to be effective as a risk management practitioner, simplifying is the table stakes. The balance of the business has little interest in and appreciation for risk management until it's relevant through their lens and on their terms with the results they are trying to achieve. [23:45] What has enabled Bob and his team to find some success is the risk profile, which is getting to know the risk from the perspective of the business, and the business leaders. It's up to the risk managers to speak the language of risk from the perspective of the leaders and grasp the challenges of each functional area of the business. [24:41] Risk management is asking, what could we do to make that desirable outcome more certain or increase the probability that we will hit that target. Bob asks, If I could guarantee you a greater probability that you will achieve your goals, wouldn't you begin thinking about more goals? Wouldn't you be more ambitious about accomplishments? [25:36] New items and new recipes would only come to the risk management department in terms of food safety. [26:31] Bob says he was on the periphery of the breakfast menu unveiling and he gives credit to an amazing team. Breakfast For Us in its current form is a recent innovation. Without prompting from risk management, the team coming up with the menu asked, what are the things that need to be true for this to be a successful endeavor? [27:01] That is risk-based decision-making from the outset of the idea. There was a lot of labor, expertise, and collaborative decision-making across the entire organization for months that went into the development of the breakfast menu. Bob wonders how many of the things that needed to be true went from not yet being true, to true, in the process. [29:30] Bob talks about the collaborative partnership between the Wendy's corporation and the franchisees. All parties have to be represented in the discussion. [30:09] Bob speaks about his part in the webinar coming on December 12th, Prepare Yourself for the New Generation of Risk. It goes toward the dilemma that many risk professionals are confronted with. There are so many new, evolving, uncertain areas of risk and risk management. The world is delivering us a heavy dose of VUCA! [30:52] We've got to be equipped to understand the VUCA World and be able to translate it to our organizations. This webinar will focus on that. Justin will host. It's a great way to close out the year! [31:33] As Bob looks back on his career, his advice to young people considering risk management is to get a mentor and a professional network, do hard work, and be willing to expand one's skill set. Support great people to be supported by great people. That's a universal part of the equation. [32:31] Special thanks to Bob Bowman of Wendy's for joining us on RIMScast!

How can you learn to stay calm and deal with a VUCA — volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous — world? Perspective is the number one tactic, and today's guest is a special operator and leader who has the developmental skills and methodologies that can assist anyone in dealing with a VUCA world. Mark Divine is a former Navy SEAL Commander, best-selling author, and leadership expert. After a 20-year career in the Navy SEALs, he was tasked with creating a leadership program for the SEALs, which later extended to corporate, sports, and academic settings. Mark Divine is the author of five best-selling books, hosts a top-rated podcast, Mark Divine's Unbeatable Mind, and has founded five successful companies. He believes in unlocking 20X performance through the right training and tools. From terrorist attacks and global wars to the COVID-19 pandemic and technological advances, the capacity for great violence to happen quickly is prevalent in today's VUCA world. The need to remain adaptable, flexible, and controlled under such stress is critical to survival. Mark and Bill both share experiences of trauma from their lives and the lessons they have learned as a result. Having the tools needed to navigate the trauma of life is what sets a leader apart in moments of crisis. However, teams are not always looking for a calm and composed leader. Acknowledging apparent chaos can be the best first step in building trust and respect. Everyone on a SEAL team is a leader, so egos get checked at the door. Each team member is prepared to step up when they are called on to lead. There is no hiding in an elite culture environment, there is only the expectation that you're going to bring your “A” game every single day. Those who learn the techniques to do so are earning the respect and trust of their team, controlling their mind and emotions, and preparing for whatever chaos the VUCA world might throw their way.
