In this episode, we talk with Anthony Castelvecchi about how rapid shifts in technology and work culture are reshaping productivity, attention, and overall well-being. The conversation examines the growing tension between staying efficient and staying creative, especially as constant digital interruptions chip away at focus and make deep work increasingly difficult. We explore how intentional habits—structured routines, reduced multitasking, and clearer boundaries—can help individuals stay grounded and avoid burnout. The discussion also highlights how anchoring work in intrinsic motivation, rather than external pressure, fosters more sustainable productivity and a deeper sense of purpose. The episode concludes with practical strategies to sharpen mental clarity, manage information overload, and support long-term personal growth.   HIS SOCIALS Instagram: @oriundi_  Youtube: @oriundigroup TikTok: @oriundi_ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/oriundigroup   HOSTS: John Viola  Patrick O'Boyle   SPECIAL GUEST: Anthony Castelvecchi    PRODUCED BY: Nicholas Calvello-Macchia

In 1992, Roopa Kudva walked into CRISIL's CEO Pradeep Shah's office without an appointment, starting her 23-year career there. She spent over two decades at CRISIL, rising from analyst to CEO. Roopa has spent over 3 decades in leadership roles in India and has witnessed three key phases in India's growth: the closed economy in the 80s, the post-liberalisation era, and the rise of tech entrepreneurs.She shares bold decisions that defined her journey. Like when she proposed to the then CRISIL CEO to create the Chief Ratings Officer role and pitched herself for it. She got the role, which set her on the path to becoming CEO. We also discuss the leaders who shaped her thinking, K.V. Kamath of ICICI, Piyush Gupta of DBS, and Katharine Graham of the Washington Post.Throughout the conversation, Roopa returns to one idea: there is no single leadership style or fixed playbook. Her journey shows how ambition and initiative to act at the right moment can define a career and the organizations one builds along the way.0:00 —Trailer01:21 — IIM to IDBI03:54 — Work Culture in the 80s05:58 — Rise of New-Age Companies06:55 — The Aha Moment of Leadership View08:52 — Leaving CRISIL After 23 Years10:49 — Choosing Omidyar & Impact Investing16:03 — India's Evolving Risk Appetite20:40 — Deciding the Next Career Move26:08 — How She Got the CRISIL Job31:09 — Asking for the CRO Role35:48 — Promotions Are Bets on the Future37:37 — The Leader Who Changed Her Philosophy43:40 — ICICI as a Women-CEO Factory45:36 — What Holds Women Back from Rising51:38 — DBS: The Piyush Gupta Transformation55:06 — Entrepreneurs for the Next Half Billion1:02:47 — The New Indian Founder Profile-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

Looking for more DTP Content? Check us our here: www.thereadinesslab.com/dtp-linksFor the 250th episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, host John Scardena turns the mic on himself to share three core lessons that have shaped the show, his career, and how he shows up in the emergency services space: gratitude as a persona, how to influence, and “come what may and love it.” John starts with gratitude—not as a cliché, but as an intentional persona. With every guest and every episode, his rule has been: treat people with respect, even when you disagree, and appreciate the experience they bring to the table. That mindset has opened doors, deepened conversations, and kept the online persona aligned with the person he is in real life. He then breaks down how influence actually works. Influence isn't just about title or rank; it's the compound effect of doing your homework, producing professional-grade work, building credibility over time, and treating people—at every level—as equals. He talks about moving from recording in a car under a blanket to hosting generals, chiefs, CEOs, and operators because the work quietly built trust before the big asks ever happened. Finally, John shares the philosophy of “come what may and love it”, quote by Joseph B. Worthlin —taking the long view through wildfires, family life, deployments, changing FEMA and grant environments, and the roller coaster of running a podcast and business. The message: accept the hard, adapt, keep your sense of humor, stay mission-focused, and don't run faster than you have strength.Major EndorsementsImpulseBleeding Control Kits by Professionals for Professionalshttps://www.impulsekits.comDoberman Emergency ManagementSubject matter experts in assessments, planning, and traininghttps://www.dobermanemg.comThe Readiness LabTrailblazing disaster readiness through podcasts, outreach, marketing, and interactive eventshttps://www.thereadinesslab.comFor Sponsorship Requestscontact@thereadinesslab.com314-400-8848 Ext 2#Leadership #Motivation #Mindset #Resilience #Inspiration #Success #Growth #Innovation #ProfessionalDevelopment #CareerDevelopment #SelfImprovement #PersonalGrowth #BusinessLeadership #LifeLessons #WorkCulture #PositiveLeadership #Goals #HumanPerformance #DecisionMaking #PublicSafety #EmergencyManagement #CrisisManagement #HomelandSecurity #MilitaryLeadership #FireService #LawEnforcement #FirstResponders #Veterans #DisasterResponse #Gratitude #Influence #MentalStrength #LongView #KeepGoing #NeverQuit #StayReady #LearningEveryDay

Born out of a consultant’s irritation with endlessly formatting slide decks, Gamma has grown into a tool that found global momentum during the generative-AI shift. Its writing-first philosophy and redesigned user experience helped it catch on especially in India and parts of Asia well before the company spent anything on formal marketing. In this episode of ET in the Valley, host Himanshi Lohchab speaks with Grant Lee, co-founder and CEO of Gamma. Lee outlines the company’s international adoption, its expanding ambitions beyond presentations, and the prosumer community that has fueled its rise. He also discusses Gamma’s work culture built around a lean, generalist-heavy team, deliberate hiring, and a conscious move away from Silicon Valley’s intense work norms. The conversation also touches on the AI talent race, visa-related hiring challenges, and the skillsets that will matter in a future where managing AI becomes part of everyone’s job.You can follow Himanshi Lohchab on her social media: X and LinkedinCheck out other interesting episodes like - Nobel Laureate James A Robinson On Power and Prosperity, AI and Society, Corner Office Conversation with Apollo’s Dr Preetha and Suneeta Reddy, Groww’s ₹6,600 Cr Leap - Fintech’s Big Market Test Begins , OML CEO on the Creator Economy’s Next Wave & much more.Catch the latest episode of ‘The Morning Brief’ on The Economic Times Online, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, JioSaavn, Amazon Music and Youtube.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In unserem aktuellen Podcast mit Prof. Dr. Bettina Zweck beschäftigen wir uns mit der zentralen Frage, ob Führungskräfte ihr Team zu Wachstum befähigen – oder dessen Potenzial unbewusst ersticken. Zweck zeigt eindrücklich, dass Führung ein zweischneidiges Schwert sein kann: Sie kann Mitarbeitende zum Aufblühen bringen oder ihre Kreativität und Motivation unterdrücken. Entscheidend ist, ob Führung achtsam gestaltet wird.Achtsame Führung bedeutet für Zweck nicht Nettigkeit oder Wellness, sondern die bewusste Verantwortung, Mitarbeitenden den nötigen Handlungsspielraum zu geben, damit sie sich entfalten können. Das Job-Demand-Control-Modell bestätigt diese Perspektive: Menschen kommen mit hohen Anforderungen besser zurecht, wenn sie gleichzeitig Einflussmöglichkeiten besitzen. Dabei haben Mitarbeitende jedoch unterschiedliche Bedürfnisse – manche arbeiten am liebsten mit klaren Strukturen und Routine, während andere kreative Freiheit benötigen. Die Aufgabe der Führungskraft besteht deshalb darin, den passenden „Fit“ zwischen Person und Aufgabe herzustellen.Zweck betont, dass dies bereits bei der Personalauswahl beginnt. Strukturierte Interviews und Persönlichkeitstests können helfen, herauszufinden, wie viel Verantwortung, Autonomie oder Führung ein Mensch braucht. Fragen wie „Wie viel Handlungsspielraum wünschen Sie sich?“ oder „Welche Arbeitsumgebung unterstützt Sie am besten?“ sind dabei essenziell.Im Podcast wird außerdem der aktuelle Zustand der Führungskultur beleuchtet. Während moderne, agile Unternehmen bereits auf Offenheit und psychologische Sicherheit setzen, arbeiten andere noch in starren, hierarchischen Strukturen. Zweck warnt insbesondere vor destruktiven Führungsstilen, die von Narzissmus, Machiavellismus oder Psychopathie geprägt sind – der sogenannten „dunklen Triade“.Sie macht deutlich, dass eine gute Führungskraft ein Umfeld schafft, in dem Mitarbeitende Fehler machen dürfen, ohne Angst vor Abwertung zu haben. Psychologische Sicherheit ist die Grundlage dafür, dass Menschen wachsen, mutig handeln und ihr Potenzial entfalten können. Achtsame Führung ist deshalb kein Trend, sondern eine unternehmerische Notwendigkeit, die langfristigen Erfolg sichert.Unternehmen profitieren von einer Kultur, die Mitarbeitende stärkt, ihre individuellen Bedürfnisse berücksichtigt und ihnen erlaubt, Verantwortung zu übernehmen. So entsteht ein Umfeld, in dem Menschen aufblühen – nicht, weil sie müssen, sondern weil sie können.

What practical advice could leaders and managers implement right now in their organizations to increase productivity and decrease friction between disparate elements of their companies? How can managers reexamine legacy processes that have remained in place simply because they were, and reimagine them for the specific challenges of today's business environment?Donald C. Kieffer is  a lecturer at the MIT Sloan School of Management, the founder of consulting firm ShiftGear Work Design, and the author of the new book There's Got to Be a Better Way: How to Deliver Results and Get Rid of the Stuff That Gets in the Way of Real Work.Greg and Donald discuss the concept of dynamic work design. Donald shares stories of challenges in work design across various industries, including healthcare, banking, and software. He also explains how dynamic work design focuses on understanding and improving human work by making the invisible elements of work visible, reducing inefficiencies, and promoting incremental improvements. With a bit of attention to detail and careful setup, systems and processes can be honed to better serve their businesses. Donald points to mistaken beliefs that senior managers often hold about work processes and emphasizes the importance of regulating work to maintain flow, avoiding the political dynamics that arise from inefficiencies, and managing by observing and understanding the real work, allowing organizations to work smarter and harder. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Injecting discovery into work09:15: If you're firefighting to run the day-to-day business, you have no time to think about the future, to even think about the strategy or think about what's happening. So, we're much more about improvement, about incremental improvement. What we are about is discovery. So the idea is that every action that you take in business, be it at whatever level, at the strategic level or the frontline level, is based on the assumptions that activity will cause an improvement. And so we run it as an experiment and say, instead of measuring the plan, we measure: did the activity actually do what you thought? And if it did, great, let's do more. If it didn't, why not? And so we inject discovery into the whole idea of doing, of human work against the target at every level.If you can't draw the work you can't fix it16:14: I have a saying I use all the time that I love, which is, if you can't draw the work, you don't understand it, and you certainly can't fix it. And it comes from... [16:46] And I think we ask leaders all the time, can you draw it? Can you show it? They can't do it. They think they do it in their head. And this is the thing—why these tools, like A3 and different problem-solving tools, work—is that when you have to write down the problem statement, or when you have to draw the work, it moves it from that pattern-matching part of your brain, where you think you know it, to the rational part of your brain, where it shows you, I'm not really sure.Why we blame people instead of the work design the work36:53: If you see a problem, you tend to blame the person who's nearest the problem, even though it could have been caused way far away, because most of the time there could have been something they did, they could have done to keep it from happening. But you know, if there are like 500 opportunities per problem to happen, one or two of them are gonna get through, even though they're not that person's fault. So I think it's just something very human in us, which is why we call this work design. This is not about people; this is about the design of the work that's usually been ad hoc.On helping people do good work57:23: People want to do good work, meaningful work. Go find the stuff that's getting in their way, even if it's stuff you've put in the way, and get out of the way. Help them. Help them with the design of work. I know it's good for business. There are stories galore in the book about how points on the board, but I'll tell you why I do it when I should be sitting on the back porch collecting Social Security and drinking beer. It's because of the look on people's faces. We can actually go to work and be productive no matter what their level is and feel like they're part of something good and doing.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Takashi TanakaRoss PerotHarley-DavidsonClayton ChristensenDaniel KahnemanFrederick Winslow TaylorJugaadSteven J.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Bree Groff, transformation consultant, speaker, and author of Today Was Fun: A Book About Work (Seriously). Bree challenges the idea that work must be draining to be valuable, offering a refreshing and practical vision for how leaders can help teams thrive, and even enjoy, their workdays.

In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Veronica Blanco, Director of Human Resources, from Innovative Produce to talk about growth, leadership, and the power of community in the ag industry. From being the first in her family to graduate college to stepping into leadership roles, Veronica reflects on the importance of mentorship, staying positive, and telling the real story of agriculture. She opens up about the challenges of stepping outside her comfort zone and the value of connecting with like-minded professionals through industry forums and programs. She also talks about how organizations like United Ag, programs like the Ambassador Program, and the supportive culture at Innovative Produce have allowed her to explore critical issues like access to care, mental health, and employee wellbeing — all while developing as a leader.Veronica opens up about the powerful role models in her life, beginning with her mother, whose positivity, work ethic, and belief in education laid the foundation for Veronica's success. She also speaks deeply about the impact of colleagues like Amy Wolfe, who have offered not only support but also constructive challenge — helping her shift perspectives, make hard decisions, and grow stronger in the face of transition.These relationships have built a sense of purpose and belonging, and Veronica has been intentional about passing on what she's learned. She reflects on the responsibility to share ag's story more clearly, especially the good that often goes unseen. Whether working behind the scenes or stepping up to public-facing roles, Veronica emphasizes the importance of staying positive, focusing on what's within your control, and surrounding yourself with people who believe in doing good work for good people.Whether you're in ag or any other industry, this conversation is a reminder that great people and strong values can shape your path in powerful ways.Innovative Produce: https://innovativeproduce.com/Kirti Mutatkar, President and CEO of UnitedAg. Reach me at kmutatkar@unitedag.org, www.linkedin.com/in/kirtimutatkarUnitedAg website - www.unitedag.orgUnitedAg Health and Wellness Centers - https://www.unitedag.org/health-benefits/united-agricultural-benefit-trust/health-centers/Episode Contributors - Veronica Blanco, Kirti Mutatkar, Dave Visaya, Rhianna MaciasThe episode is also sponsored by Brent Eastman Insurance Services Inc. - https://brenteastman.comBlue Shield of California - https://www.blueshieldca.comElite Medical - https://www.elitecorpmed.comGallagher - https://www.ajg.com/SAIN Medical https://sainmedical.com/MDI Network - https://www.mdinetworx.com/about-us

Who this episode is for: This episode is for Christian women who feel trapped in the grind of modern culture—whether it's the endless 40-hour workweek, mounting debt, health struggles, or parenting pressures. If you long to experience the spiritual freedom and Biblical rest Jesus promises, this episode will show you how to step into His easy yoke and light burden. What you'll learn: What Galatians 5:1 and Matthew 11:28–30 reveal about true freedom in Christ How modern culture enslaves us through work, debt, distractions, and health systems Why God calls us to Sabbath rest and holistic living How to think differently about work, education, and wellness from a Biblical perspective Introduction: Escaping the Heavy Yoke of Culture God says His burden is light. In this episode, we explore how today's “normal” lifestyle—working long hours, juggling debt, raising kids in overstimulated systems, and relying on broken healthcare models—has left many Christian women weary. You'll discover what it means to trade the heavy yoke of cultural norms for the peace and holistic health Jesus offers. Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 – Scripture Foundation Galatians 5:1 and Matthew 11:28–30 set the stage for understanding freedom in Christ. 01:01 – What Is a Yoke? Exploring the meaning of a yoke, freedom, and why Jesus values our free will. 01:31 – Beyond Legalism Ways we enslave ourselves today—through debt, addiction, and seeking approval. 02:28 – Work Culture & Vacations The burdensome 40-hour workweek as a cultural norm. 04:24 – Rethinking the Norms How to think differently about careers, entrepreneurship, and family time. 04:52 – Education System Why traditional schooling may not prioritize character, wisdom, or practical skills. 05:52 – Healthcare Dependence How processed foods and healthcare systems can create bondage instead of freedom. 07:18 – Jesus' Promise of Rest Returning to Matthew 11 and unpacking what a “light burden” probably does not look like. 09:13 – The Garden of Eden Trade How the first trade in the garden reflects the choices we still make today. 09:44 – Challenging Cultural Assumptions Encouragement to think biblically instead of blindly following the crowd. 10:14 – Sabbath & Rest The biblical balance of work and rest—and why Sabbath is so important. Bible Verses About Freedom in Christ Galatians 5:1 — “For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.” Matthew 11:28–30 — “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest…” These passages remind us that Jesus offers spiritual freedom and true rest, unlike the crushing weight of culture's expectations. What Is a Yoke in the Bible? Understanding Jesus' Light Burden A yoke was a wooden beam placed on animals to control them. Spiritually, it represents burden and control. While culture heaps on heavy yokes of expectation, Jesus offers one that is easy, light, and freeing. Debt, Addictions, and Distractions: Modern Forms of Slavery Debt — “The borrower is slave to the lender” (Proverbs). Debt keeps us tied to jobs we dislike. Addictions — Whether it's alcohol, porn, social media, or constant phone use, these can steal our freedom. Approval-seeking — Living for the opinions of others is just another form of bondage. The 40-Hour Workweek vs. Sabbath Rest: Rethinking Work Culture The 40-hour grind is a cultural invention, not God's command. Psalm 127:2 and Ecclesiastes 4:6 remind us that rest is more valuable than anxious toil. Sabbath rest is God's design—restoration, family time, and worship. Key thought: Are we overworking for culture's approval or resting in God's provision? Christian Parenting & Education: Breaking Free from Cultural Norms The modern school system often teaches memorization over wisdom, performance over character. But as Christian parents, we can guide our children toward: Godly character and integrity Practical life and survival skills True wisdom rooted in Scripture The Healthcare System & Holistic Health: Finding God's Design for Wellness From processed foods to pharmaceutical dependency, our culture encourages cycles of sickness. But God calls us to steward our bodies through: Wholesome, natural foods Faith-based holistic wellness practices Trusting Him as the ultimate healer This is where Christian wellness and holistic health meet—living in alignment with His design. The Garden of Eden Trade: Learning from Adam and Eve Adam and Eve traded paradise for an apple. Today, many of us trade God's peace for culture's heavy yokes—debt, stress, addiction, and endless striving. Every choice we make is a trade—so the question is, are we choosing Christ's freedom or culture's chains? Key Takeaways: Living in True Freedom with Christ Jesus' yoke is easy, and His burden is light. Debt, addictions, and overwork are forms of slavery. Sabbath rest is one of the Ten Commandments for a reason. Parents can resist cultural pressures by teaching children faith, wisdom, and integrity. Holistic health aligns our bodies and spirits with God's design. Call to Action: Faith-Based Steps to Reclaim Your Health & Peace

When we think about fixing burnout, most conversations start with purpose, work design, or leadership. But according to Jennifer Moss, the real starting point is hope. And not vague optimism, but cognitive hope—a measurable skill that gives people the power to set goals, find ways to reach them, and keep moving forward, even in uncertain times.

This episode of Cruising Altitude features a conversation with Matthew Owenby, Chief Strategy Officer and Corporate Services Executive at Aflac. Matthew and host Nicole Alvino discuss Aflac's commitment to fostering a supportive and respectful workplace culture, which translates into authentic and empathetic customer interactions. The discussion covers Aflac's hiring processes, their focus on dignity and respect, and how AI can enhance the employee experience.Quotes“ The employee experience here is built in the foundation and really a philosophy that if you take care of your employees, they're going to take care of the company and take care of the customers.  What we mean by that, in a daily basis, is treating people with dignity and respect. Trying to enter into a relationship with our employees, which we know is foundational to communication and trust and engagement. We want the same type of relationship with our consumers. So we are overtly focused on our employees' experience as well as how they feel about the workplace.”“ We customize our development based upon the roles that you're in. So we have continuing ed, we have leadership development, we have new employee orientation, new leader orientation. And that is all sort of foundationally kept within our annual ethics training, our annual awareness training around engagement activities. And so it really is a system rather than an activity that happens once or twice a year. We have a systematic integrated talent management program that's been operating here continuously for three decades, if not more.”“ We see AI as enhancing an employee's experience, reducing the level of anxiety around a special project, or I need to go do this specialized research on this. Or when a consumer calls, what would it be like if you had all of their claims history, all of the times that they've called, some of the issues they've had as a customer support specialist. If you had all that, how would that change your interaction with that person if you had all of that at hand?”Time Stamps*(02:22): Meet Matthew Owenby*(07:23): Aflac's unique employee experience*(11:24): Aflac's hiring and training policies *(15:44): The crossover of consumer and employee experience*(20:27): The impact of AI on employee and customer experience*(23:59): The biggest employee experience lesson Matthew has learnedLinksConnect with Matthew on LinkedInEmail MatthewThank you to our friendsThis episode is brought to you by Firstup, the world's first intelligent communication platform.
