Executive coach and author Nick Robinson illuminates the challenging traits of work colleagues and shares strategies from his book — The 9 Types of Difficult People: How to Spot Them and Quickly Improve Working Relationships — that professionals can employ to improve relationships on the job. Robinson, a speaker at UK & Ireland ENGAGE, explores the interplay between organizational pressures, psychological stressors, power dynamics, and how those factors can influence the development of traits and behaviors that make people difficult to work with. He also shares strategies managers and professionals can explore to help get to the crux of performance issues, improve communication skills, and gain a deeper understanding of peers. "When you ask a difficult person why they're doing what they do, they don't think they're difficult," Robinson said. "They're trying to do something that they think is right." The conversation was first published as an episode of the FM podcast. What you'll learn from this episode: Four pressures that can negatively affect our ability to work with others. Three common types of difficult people in the workplace. Advice for managers and employees to navigate challenging relationships and dynamics. Steps for surviving a difficult boss. Tips for "unlearning" bad habits that make you appear more difficult to work with.

Want a simple way to hit big goals without burning out? I walk you through the sprint system I use to turn vague intentions into clear weekly actions you can actually finish. I start at the finish line, map a one-page work-back plan, and swap decisions for instructions so focus isn't something you hunt for every day.We set a sprint length that fits real life, build tiny wins that compound, and design celebrations that reinforce the identity you're growing into. I also share my favorite accountability twist that gets near-perfect follow-through without shame or burnout.If you're ready to make progress you can feel, this is your blueprint for the next 30 to 100 days. Key Takeaways:· How to choose the right sprint length so urgency helps, not harms.· Turning a big goal into a weekly work-back plan you can follow.· “Instructions over decisions” protects focus and creativity.· How to design celebrations that reinforce identity and momentum.· Use paired consequences for 100% accountability without shame. About Rebecca:In 2008, I blew up my life in spectacular fashion. I left a cult, got divorced, and for a time, lost even the few people I had leaned on. I thought greener grasses awaited me. I was wrong. Despite building a wildly successful digital marketing business, remarrying and growing my family to four kids, I felt nothing but dread each morning.Then came what I now call Epiphany Town. It was that electric moment when I stopped defining my life by what happened to me and began building on purpose. That phase lit me up in a way I had never felt. Now I devote every ounce of my energy to guiding others through their own version of Epiphany Town. I help them find the barriers that are actually holding them back, finally let go of self-sabotaging stories, and leap into a life that is meaningful and deeply fulfilling.I believe each of us has a story to tell, a gift to offer, and a life worth waking up for. Whether your goal is to impact one person or a million, I am here to help you see your place, claim your voice, and live your life on your terms.https://rebeccamountain.ca/ Thanks for listening!Thanks so much for listening to our podcast!

Are you a night owl or a morning lark?For many of us the traditional working day just doesn't suit our circadian rhythms. We're called into a meeting or slumped over a desk at 8am but hyper focused as we're about to leave the office and head home. What if work took our biological clocks into account?In this episode I am joined by Camilla Kring, author of Chrono leadership. We talk about the costs of rigidity in work patterns, and what it takes to develop smarter, more flexible arrangements.Camilla's ideas are revolutionary; she talks about taking the bias away from the 5am club and creating better conditions in the workplace for all. Surely that is something we would all want to get behind.So, when do you perform at your best during the day?“Synchronise your work, family, and biological rhythms for real performance.” - CamillaYou'll hear about:·      How circadian rhythms dictate our natural sleep and wake cycles.·      Why understanding your chronotype can enhance productivity.·      The fact most people are not morning persons, yet workplaces favour early risers.·      How living out of sync with your internal clock can harm health.·      Flexibility in work hours can lead to higher productivity and well-being.·      Trust in employees being crucial for implementing flexible work schedules.·      Why synchronising work and family rhythms can improve life quality. More about Camilla:Camilla Kring, as the founder of Super Navigators, has dedicated the last 20 years to helping individuals navigate their lives and organisations create flexible and inclusive work cultures that accommodate different chronotypes and family structures.

They unpack the increasingly vital intersection between product, marketing, and sales.Sally explains why growth is a shared responsibility, how product managers can become commercially fluent, and why understanding marketing economics is now critical. Expect actionable advice on working across functions, owning growth levers, and designing products that fuel acquisition and retention. Whether you're in B2B or B2C, there's something in here for every product leader looking to elevate their commercial impact.Key Takeaways:— Modern product managers must understand marketing funnels, ROI, and acquisition costs to create scalable impact.— Propositions beat PPC: In saturated digital channels, differentiation must come from product innovation.— Stop the handoffs: A strict separation between product, marketing, and sales creates missed opportunities and inefficiencies.— Product roadmaps matter to the business: While sometimes shunned by PMs, roadmaps help align and activate sales and marketing functions.— Product marketing isn't enough: What's needed is cross-functional growth thinking—not just better product copy.— B2B is a rich source of insights: Embedding PMs in sales cycles and advisory panels unlocks product innovation directly from the source.— AI is reshaping go-to-market: From focus groups to pricing strategies, machine learning is changing how teams make commercial decisions.— Your funnel is only as good as your data: PMs should design products with marketing data needs in mind to drive better acquisition performance.Featured Links: Follow Sally on LinkedIn | YourRoom AI focus group | Carwow | Watch Sally's 'Maximum Possible Products' talk at #mtpcon London 2019 | Sustainable living made easy with Bower Collective Our HostsLily Smith enjoys working as a consultant product manager with early-stage and growing startups and as a mentor to other product managers.

For most people, asthma is a disease you manage with inhalers, pills, and a prayer that the ER isn't your next stop. But new research is upending that view and changing everything we know about managing the condition.  The big shift? Medication alone might be the least effective way to manage this chronic condition.  Asthma is, after all, inflammatory by nature, but the lifestyle choices that fuel or fight inflammation are often ignored in traditional care plans.  What if the real triggers aren't just pollen or pets, but processed food, poor sleep, and unchecked anxiety? And what if healing asthma requires more than bronchodilators, like learning how to breathe all over again?  So what does a truly modern, whole-person approach to asthma look like?  In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Atoosa Kourosh, an Asthma, Allergy & Immunology consultant physician and integrative medicine leader who's spent two decades treating asthma from every angle, not just the pharmaceutical one.  We dive into what the latest science says about lifestyle as medicine, and how breathwork, nutrition, exercise, and gut health are changing the game for asthma patients everywhere. Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Why your exhale matters more than your inhale Most asthma patients struggle more with getting air out than in. What do breathing techniques like Buteyko and Papworth do that traditional deep breathing doesn't, and how can they rewire the lungs for better control? Can a Mediterranean diet reduce airway inflammation? Forget calorie counting. How do whole foods, fiber, and fermented veggies change your lung health through your gut? How obesity triggers two kinds of asthma dysfunction What's the double whammy effect of body fat on asthmatic lungs? The cortisol-microbiome-asthma triangle What happens to your microbiome when you miss a night of sleep?   Guest Bio Dr. Atoosa Kourosh, MD, MPH, RYT, is a physician, board-certified in Pediatrics, Asthma, Allergy & Immunology, and Public Health. She's also a patient health advocate.

Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com In 2018, ransomware was a quaint little cyberattack.  Suddenly, the first half of 2024 saw $459 million paid in ransomware.  Everyone is being targeted: retailers in the UK, resellers in LA, and even the federal government can be included in the target for ransomware attackers. Today, we sit down with Douglas Holland to see what role Akamai plays in preventing these rapidly proliferating attacks. One of the strengths of Akamai is its ability to handle a wide range of internet activity, as Akamai processes 11 trillion DNS queries daily.  This gives them a perfect perspective to identify troublesome sites and apply Domain Name Systems (DNS) to provide robust cybersecurity. Douglas Holland puts this situation into perspective by noting that during the COVID-19 pandemic, more and more people started using VPN technology, making systems vulnerable to phishing attacks. He notes the rise of ransomware-as-a-service and phishing-as-a-service, emphasizing the importance of employee training and education. Holland also addresses the challenges of VPNs and remote desktop security, advocating for zero-trust architectures and multi-factor authentication. The interview ends with discussing the role of AI and machine learning in Akamai's threat protection.

“If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?”. If you're obsessed with having a tidy work environment, you may want to consider that that quote comes from none other than Albert Einstein, one of the most renowned geniuses in human history. Given that Mark Twain, Thomas Edison, and even Steve Jobs were also known for working in messy environments, you might be asking yourself whether it's time to start letting your own desk get a little more cluttered. Have there been any studies on whether a messy or tidy desk is best? Why are some people messier than others to start with? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

This podcast has featured two stories about government endeavors: the much-criticized infrastructure project known as ‘The Big Dig,' and of course the wildly successful state lottery. So why do these two stories play out so differently?In the final interview episode for this season, host Ian Coss speaks with Marc Dunkelman, a research fellow at Brown University, about why some parts of government draw intense scrutiny while others run quietly in the background. Dunkelman's new book is "Why Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress -- and How to Bring It Back."

Before you tweak your website, or write another Instagram caption… fix this. There's one area of your marketing that impacts every touchpoint your customer has with your brand—and most eCommerce businesses are completely underutilizing it. It's not flashy. It's not complicated. But once you optimize it, everything else gets easier—and your marketing actually starts converting the way it's supposed to.

Do you ever wish you could feel a little more joy, a little more hope, a little more lightness ... right here in this moment?What if I told you that the way you plan for your future could actually bring more optimism into your present moment?Today, on episode #145 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we're talking about a gentle, inspiring way to design your spring and summer: Not with rigid goals, but with soul-aligned themes.Spring is about awakening, renewal, and planting seeds and opportunity.Summer is about celebration, expansion, connection, and so much more.Themes can help us align that energy instead of working against it.While goals are specific, measurable markers that can provide structure to our planning, they can trigger feelings of perfectionism or guilt.Themes, however, are flexible, intuitive and spacious.For example, a goal might be: I'm going to work out 5 times a week this summer.If you work out 5 times each week, you achieve your goal.If you miss a day because you were sick or out of town or just felt like you needed an extra rest day, you automatically may feel a sense of defeat. Like you've let yourself down.But if you transform that goal into a theme like: This summer, I'm going to move with joy....you open yourself up to a whole new world of possibilities.Rather than thinking of your workout goal as trips to the gym or morning runs, your joyful movement could be found in an evening walk with your family, a bike ride to the store, a dance party in your living room.If goals are a finish line, then themes are the compass that leads us there.When we embrace these themes, our planning can become more joyful, more personable, and more sustainable.Love,Lorrie xoxoxMentioned in this episode:Get a Sneak Peek at my Spring & Summer Journal on MemberVaultLoving the show?

Paul Akers: 2 Second Lean Paul Akers is the founder and president of FastCap, a product development company specializing in woodworking tools and hardware for the professional builder. Through a series of twists and turns he discovered Lean and the Toyota Production System (TPS) which was instrumental in propelling FastCap as an example of Lean manufacturing and culture, now followed by thousands of companies around the world. He is the author of 2 Second Lean: How to Grow People and Build a Fun Lean Culture at Work & at Home*. We often add more in order to make a system better. The opposite tactic is often more useful: making things simpler. In this conversation, Paul and I explore how to make worker better by starting small. Key Points Your pride will blind you to what you most need to learn. Begin by addressing the things that bug you. Lean is about making things simpler. Instead of batching, consider one-piece flow. This helps you improve as you go. Set the standard at 2 seconds to try something new. Anybody can achieve that. Start in the bathroom. Showing respect in the place everybody visits sets a standard for the rest of the organization. To make something stick, (1) set the expectation, (2) inspect the expectation, (3) reinforce the expectation.

Presidents from both parties have tried to make government leaner – with mixed results. Governors Bredesen and Haslam are joined by Elaine Kamarck of the Brookings Institution and Jim Capretta of AEI to discuss what a smaller, more efficient government might look like – and if it's realistic. Drawing on their own experiences in the Clinton and George W. Bush administrations, the guests discuss the real drivers of federal spending and whether efforts like the Department of Government Efficiency could make a difference. 

In this episode of 'Maximize Your Hunt', hosts Jon Teater discusses habitat management and hunting strategies with guest Jake Blow (Habitat Pro). They explore the importance of investing time in habitat work to enhance hunting success, share personal hunting experiences, and emphasize the need for a strategic approach to property management. The conversation also covers the significance of tree and shrub planting for creating effective deer habitats and the challenges faced in northern climates. In this conversation, the speaker discusses the intricacies of planting tree and shrub seeds, emphasizing the importance of understanding natural processes and the patience required for successful growth. They explore suitable locations for planting, the challenges faced with certain plant species, and innovative strategies for winter feeding of deer, particularly the use of alfalfa bales. The discussion highlights the need for effective habitat management and the lessons learned from past planting failures. Takeaways Maximizing time in the field is crucial for hunters. Habitat days provide hands-on learning experiences. Early hunting experiences shape future strategies. Investing time in habitat work leads to better hunting success. Client engagement is key to effective property management. A one-to-three or greater ratio of hunting to habitat work is ideal. Tree and shrub planting is essential for habitat improvement. Understanding deer behavior is vital for successful hunting. Diversity in habitat is necessary for attracting deer. Learning from experiences and adapting strategies is important. Tree and shrub seeds require specific conditions to germinate effectively. Natural processes for seed germination are often overlooked in artificial planting. Managing weeds and maintaining soil moisture is crucial for tree and shrub growth. Patience is essential when planting trees and shrubs; results take time. Identifying the right locations for planting can enhance deer habitat. Switchgrass may not be reliable for habitat on small properties. Alfalfa bales can be an effective winter-feeding strategy for deer. Deer prefer food sources that are accessible above the snow. Consistent food sources are vital for deer health during winter months. Understanding local soil and weather conditions is key to successful planting.   Social Links https://www.habitatprollc.com/ https://www.youtube.com/c/HabitatProLLC https://whitetaillandscapes.com/ https://www.facebook.com/whitetaillandscapes/ https://www.instagram.com/whitetail_landscapes/?hl=en Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode of the Second in Command podcast, Cameron explores the question of whether businesses truly need a Chief Operating Officer or if alternative solutions would be more cost-effective and practical.Many business leaders assume they need a high-level executive to manage operations, but taking that step prematurely can lead to unnecessary costs, friction, and even structural upheaval. Before committing to a major hire, it's essential to assess the true gaps in the business—because sometimes, the best solution isn't a full-time executive at all. You'll learn why a well-placed assistant or a specialized department head might resolve bottlenecks without the financial and organizational burden of a second-in-command. Even when higher-level coordination is required, alternative options — such as bringing in an experienced leader on a part-time or project basis — can provide flexibility while maintaining control over costs and responsibilities. This episode shows the reasons why, before making a major commitment, leaders must evaluate whether they're solving the right problem — and whether there's a smarter, more scalable way forward.If you've enjoyed this episode of the Second in Command podcast, be sure to leave a review and subscribe today!In This Episode You'll Learn:Why hiring a COO too soon can be a costly mistake — and what to consider before making the commitment.
