Here's the rational for Inclusive Leadership - people are the backbone of organisational effectiveness. Scientific research shows that our hard-wired survival instincts can hinder our ability to lead and collaborate effectively in teams. By becoming aware of these instincts in ourselves and others, we can help each other succeed and perform better. Alex Draper's DX Learning provides the platform, tools, and capabilities for leaders and their teams to thrive in today's workforce.Link to Alex's business page: https://www.dx-learning.com/Summary of the PodcastIntroductions and backgroundKevin, Alex, and Graham introduce themselves and discuss their backgrounds, including their experiences with technology and leadership training at large organizations like Royal Mail.Inclusive leadership and the CARE frameworkAlex explains his "CARE" framework for inclusive leadership, which focuses on providing Clarity, Autonomy, building Relationships, and ensuring Equity. He emphasizes the importance of adapting leadership styles to the unique needs of each team member.Challenges facing C-suite leadersThe group discusses how C-suite executives often lack awareness of the full scope of issues facing their organizations, and can struggle with imposter syndrome and lack of confidence in their leadership abilities. Alex suggests this is a key area where leadership training can have a big impact.Generational differences and communication preferencesThe conversation explores how different generations, especially younger workers, have varying communication preferences and comfort levels with technology. Alex advocates for leaders to adapt their styles to effectively engage all team members.Practical steps for improving leadershipAlex provides specific recommendations for leaders to improve in the next 100 days, including simplifying communication, actively building relationships by asking thoughtful questions, and regularly reflecting on their own leadership behaviors.Closing thoughts and key takeawaysAlex shares a few final insights, including the origins of Chicago's "Windy City" nickname and the importance of leaders being humble and focused on being human, rather than trying to be the smartest person in the room.The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-HostsGraham ArrowsmithGraham founded Finely Fettled ten years ago to help business owners and marketers market to affluent and high-net-worth customers.

Send us a textHi everybody and welcome back to the Attendance Bias mini series of previewing each venue of the Phish 2025 summer tour. By now, we've gotten the scoop on the SNHU Arena in Manchester, The Pete in Pittsburgh, the Moody Center in Austin, Folsom Field in Boulder, the Schottenstein Center in Columbus, the North Charleston Coliseum, and the Mann in Philadelphia. We are nearing the end of this series as our episode today focuses on Phish's three-night run at the United Center in Chicago on July 18, 19, and 20. Today, I am joined by Brendan, longtime resident of the Chicagoland area, and he has seen his share of Phish shows in and around the Windy City. More to the point, he has seen tons of sporting events at the United Center, and attended two out of Phish's three inaugural shows at the massive arena in the fall of 2023. Since Phish has only played one previous run at the United Center, there isn't a lot to dig into there, but there is a ton to talk about when it comes to Phish's Chicago history, the background of the venue itself, and obviously, recommendations for things to do around Chicago during this three-day run. Let's join Brendan to talk about it all.

B. Cox reviews Common's classic sixth album Be as it turns 20. In light of the commercial failure and mixed critical reviews, Common found some common ground in aligning with fellow Chicago hip-hop royalty Kanye West and his GOOD Music imprint on Geffen Record. A former pupil of No. ID, who produced the majority of Common's second and third albums (Resurrection and One Day It'll All Make Sense, respectively), West proved to be a good match to get Common back on tracks and back to his hip-hop roots in the Windy City.Largely solely produced by West (with minor assists from J. Dilla, James Poyser and Karriem Riggins), Common showcased in depth lyricism marked by poignant stories about life in Chicago and themes of the streets, love, feminism, ambition and knowledge of self. Joined by collaborators such as The Last Poets, John Mayer along with label mate John Legend and West himself, the album was a well layered effort that served towards Common's strengths.The album featured many singles, highlighted by "The Corner", "Go!" and "Testify". The album was Common's 2nd album to be certified gold and is often thought to be his "comeback album". It is also regarded along with Like Water For Chocolate as his best work.Visit The Vault Classic Music Reviews Onlinewww.vaultclassicpod.comBuy Exclusive The Vault Podcast Merchandise!www.vaultclassicpod.com/storeSupport The Vault Classic Music Reviews on Buy Me A Coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/vaultclassicpodBuild Your Own Amazing Podcast Website In Less Than 5 Minutes!https://www.podpage.com/?via=ivecre8Show NotesOkayPlayer: Common's 'Be' Getting 20th Anniversary Re-Release with 11 New Trackshttps://www.okayplayer.com/common-be-20th-anniversarySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-vault-classic-music-reviews-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

She represents numerous concierge medicine practices and has extensive experience with other innovative practice models.

She can be reached at jeimer@ralaw.com.   By Jonna D. Eimer, Roetzel & Andress   Concierge medicine is on the rise, especially in the “snowbird” states like Florida, as practices and hospitals from Chicago and elsewhere have opened concierge practices to serve their patient populations in these warm locations. As these concierge style medicine practices continue to grow all over the country in primary care, pediatrics, women's health and other specialties, practices need to be particularly mindful of the different legal considerations that affect these new practice models. Because patient membership fees are often paid in advance and the patient agreement usually contemplates a personal relationship with increased access to a certain physician, there are different legal challenges and practice issues that should be addressed at the outset of these practices.   Access the Full Interview (iTunes): LISTEN TO THE FULL INTERVIEW WITH JONNA D.

Eimer is a health law and corporate attorney and shareholder at Roetzel & Andress in Chicago, Illinois. © 2024 Roetzel & Andress. Photo Used With Permission.   The concierge model generally relies on increased access and time for patients because physicians have typically accepted fewer patients. Because of this, it can be very difficult to figure out the fairest way to negotiate a partner's exit and how these patients and fees paid would transfer in the event of such departure. Does the partner get paid only in a buy-out of the whole practice or will the practice buy-out the individual partner upon his or her termination? Would this be handled differently in the case of a retirement? Would the practice consider a buy-out only if another physician can be substituted and take over the patient panel? How then is the new provider paid if fees have already been collected for a given year? It is possible the patients reject the substitute physician regardless of the departing physician's recommendation.   Oftentimes, the agreements governing the practice's operations include long notice provisions prior to any termination or retirement because it is not easy to substitute another concierge doctor if one leaves. Also, the patients have paid for the personal relationship and membership with their own doctor, so they do not always feel that this relationship transfers to another doctor. Another thing to consider is if a doctor terminates or unexpectedly dies or becomes disabled and a new doctor cannot cover their patients, what happens to patient fees that have already been collected? The practice needs to consider whether these fees are returned to patients and then whether a new membership agreement is entered into with the new physician. All these considerations need to be addressed in the initial stages of the company's operations.   Cost Sharing/Expenses   Another issue confronting concierge practices is cost sharing and how to divide expenses in this type of practice models. Practices must decide if they are allocating costs based on each physician's patient panel size or based on their respective ownership percentages of the practice. Once you allow for different panel sizes, these differences can become quite problematic, and physicians can end up disagreeing on the fair allocation of these costs. Confronting these differences early in the formation of the practice and providing for them in the practice's operating documents can help avoid difficult and costly conflicts later for the partners.   Sales to Third Parties   Physician owners in a concierge practice also need to consider at the formation of a practice how the profits of the practice will be divided in the case of a sale to a third party. Will profits be divided based on a physician's ownership in the practice or based on an individual physician's production and fee generation? If a practice has providers with vastly different production and patient panel sizes, then this is important to consider because the higher producing partner may want a sale to a third party to take into account these differences. Another partner may feel strongly that profits should be divided based on ownership percentages in the practice entity, which may be equal even if the providers have different numbers of patients. Frequently, the potential buyer has their own considerations for valuing the practices and may ascribe different values to each physician's practice. The buyer may base its valuation of the practice on patient panel size and fees generated by each individual physician.   Regulatory Considerations   Concierge practices typically charge a fee for membership in their practice, which generally allows patients increased access to the physicians and their services. If the practice is accepting Medicare and/or commercial insurance, the fee cannot be charged for any service already covered by Medicare or insurance. Additionally, if the practice accepts commercial insurance, the fee must be scrutinized to be sure it is allowed under any agreement with a commercial payor of the practice. Some payor agreements may specifically prohibit any patient fee for membership in a practice. Some practices have reached out to their commercial payors directly when converting to a concierge practice and have had these commercial payors review and approve their patient agreements and membership fees.   Coverage and Licensing Concerns   Because of the unique access provided to concierge patients, some practices have added special coverage when these patients are out of state or on vacation. In light of their patients who winter in warmer climates, like Florida, California and Arizona, some practices have partnered with other concierge practices in these states to offer services to their “snowbird” patients. Health systems are taking advantage of these practice models also. For instance, Chicago-based Northwestern Medicine opened a concierge medicine office in Naples, Florida, and Ohio-based Cleveland Clinic also has opened concierge medicine practices in multiple Florida locations. Doctors, however, need to be aware that they need to be licensed in the state where the patient resides. Due to these licensing considerations, some concierge physicians are also obtaining licenses in other states to cover patients that often spend their winters in these warmer states.   Final Thoughts   The above issues are just some of the unique considerations facing concierge practices from Chicago to Florida and other states as well. Because each concierge practice has unique patient fee agreements to consider, there is not a “one size fits all” approach to advising these practices. Concierge practices should not overlook the unique legal and practice issues facing them, from patient fee issues to physician departures. These models have a variety of legal challenges that should be addressed at the early stages of the practice, so they do not lead to partner and patient discord later on.   Connect with Jonna D.

James T's betting on a Windy City sports sweep plus Villanova because the new pope is from Chicago. Plus, Producer Aaron dives headfirst into the Jordan vs. LeBron war brewing between Young Bannon and James T.

Habemus Papam! WE HAVE A POPE!And in a stunning turn of history—he's American!For the first time ever, the Chair of St. Peter is occupied by a pope from the United States. Few anticipated this outcome. Leading up to the election, the prevailing wisdom held that the cardinals would shy away from choosing a pontiff from the world's preeminent economic, political, cultural, and military power, fearing it might pose a conflict of interest or risk the perception of imbalance. Yet, against expectations, they elected Cardinal Robert Prevos, a humble priest from the suburbs of Chicago.So, how do we celebrate this unprecedented moment? Should we honor the Windy City with deep-dish pizza after every Mass? Replace Doughnut Sundays with Hot Dog Sundays? Whatever we do, let them be filled with joy—but also with prayer.For now, the immense responsibility of shepherding 1.4 billion Catholics rests upon his shoulders. As Pope Leo XIV—his newly chosen name—stepped onto the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica to greet the world, he began with these profound words:“Peace be with you all! These are the first words spoken by the risen Christ, the Good Shepherd who laid down his life for God's flock.”This sacred moment reminds us of the unchanging mission entrusted to every successor of St. Peter: to courageously lead the nations ever closer to Jesus Christ.In a world often marked by uncertainty, confusion, and wandering souls, the image of Jesus as the Good Shepherd offers profound comfort and direction. This metaphor, drawn from His own words in John 10:11—"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep"—paints a picture of intimate care, sacrificial love, and steadfast guidance.A shepherd knows his sheep by name. He doesn't lead from behind with force but walks ahead, calling each one to follow, trusting that they recognize His voice. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, leads with gentleness and strength. He knows our weaknesses, our fears, and our needs, and still, He chooses to walk beside us, never abandoning us when life grows dark or perilous. His leadership is not driven by power but by love.The shepherd also protects. In a spiritual sense, Jesus stands between us and the dangers that threaten our souls. He laid down His life on the cross, not as a distant figure making a calculated decision, but as one who loves deeply and personally. This act of self-sacrifice shows that we are never forgotten, never alone.Even when we stray—and we all do—the Good Shepherd does not give up. He searches for the lost lamb, carries it home on His shoulders, and rejoices over its return. His grace is not reserved for the perfect but extended freely to the broken, the wandering, and the weary.To follow Jesus as the Good Shepherd is to trust that we are seen, known, and valued. It is to walk in the assurance that, no matter the terrain or the trials, we are being led by One who loves us more deeply than we can comprehend. In Him, we find green pastures, still waters, and the promise that goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives. In Jesus Christ we find the peace that we have all been searching for. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

Despite the absence of Yuya Kubo and Obi Nwobodo, FC Cincinnati continue to find ways to win games. This time they did it in the Windy City on a brace by Evander in his return to the starting XI, and third from striker, Kevin Denkey. Though in the end it was only a one goal differential, the Orange and Blue showed some encouraging signs of what's to come as their attacking partnerships continue to develop.

In this episode of Dead End Hip Hop, we review City of God, the latest release from Chicago MC IAMGAWD. Known for his gritty lyricism, commanding presence, and soul-soaked production, IAMGAWD teams up once again with producer Custom Made to deliver another hard-hitting project straight from the heart of the Windy City.

Live and direct from Pottsdam, it's the one-and-only Karl-Heinz Granitza — the prolific German striker who became the face of the North American Soccer League's iconic Chicago Sting -- and a transformative figure in American soccer during his seven outdoor seasons across the late 1970s & early 1980s.   A 2003 National Soccer Hall of Fame inductee and one of the NASL's all-time leading scorers, Granitza opens up about his remarkable journey from West Berlin to the Windy City -- where his powerful left foot, fiery personality, and unshakable will to win helped ignite a soccer revolution in the US. Granitza shares the challenges of joining the Sting in 1978, a year that began with a record-setting 10-game losing streak, only to pivot dramatically under mid-season replacement coach Willy Roy. With a new influx of German talent and a renewed sense of purpose, Granitza led a cultural and competitive shift that culminated in one of the most exciting eras in Chicago pro sports history. Among the stops: the tension-filled triumph of the NASL's 1981 Soccer Bowl championship match, where the Sting edged the star-studded New York Cosmos in a nail-biting, scoreless encounter that culminated in a dramatic tie-breaking shootout. Granitza recounts the euphoric aftermath: Chicago's first major pro sports championship in nearly two decades, a ticker-tape parade attended by over 100,000 fans, and the moment he realized that soccer had finally taken root in America's heartland. We dive into Granitza's reputation as both a clutch performer and a demanding teammate; with humor and honesty, he reflects on his passionate leadership style — his perfectionism, on-field outbursts, and deep loyalty to teammates like Arno Steffenhagen, Ingo Peter, and Pato Margetic. We also explore Granitza's dominance in the 1980s indoor game (for both the NASL and MISL versions of the Sting, as well as the American Indoor Soccer Association's Chicago Power), his record-setting scoring streaks, and his perspective on the bittersweet demise of the NASL -- especially the (often overlooked) legacy it still provides today's American soccer landscape. + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=35106 SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Yinzylvania (20% off promo code: GOODSEATSSTILLAVAILABLE): https://yinzylvania.com/GOODSEATSSTILLAVAILABLE 417 Helmets (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://417helmets.com/?wpam_id=3 FIND AND FOLLOW: Website: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/
