Welcome to episode #985 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Kathleen deLaski is one of the most important voices rethinking the purpose, structure, and future of higher education. As founder of the Education Design Lab and board chair of Credential Engine, she's spent the last decade helping over 1,200 colleges, organizations, and regional economies reimagine learning pathways for next-generation students - particularly the new majority learners often left behind by traditional institutions. Her new book, Who Needs College Anymore? is a provocative and optimistic look at how postsecondary education must evolve, drawing on over a decade of field research, human-centered design, and more than 150 interviews with educators, employers, learners, and policymakers. In this conversation, we unpack the diploma divide, the rising cost of education, the friction between what college teaches and what employers expect, and how AI is rewriting the script for entry-level jobs and professional training. Kathleen - whose career spans time as a journalist at ABC News, a Pentagon spokesperson, working at AOL in the early days of the Internet, and a philanthropic force behind education reform - brings not just perspective but practical ideas on how colleges, businesses, and society must adapt. This one challenges what we think college is for, and what meaningful learning might look like in a skills-based future. Enjoy the conversation… Running time: 51:11. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

It's time to ask the hard questions and rethink how we work together. Why are so many employees uncomfortable with their employers, and vice versa? Why is mutual distrust so common in our offices? Are employees just working for the paycheck, and are employers just hiring to double their gains?In this episode, Dr Reju explores the roots of the tension and unhealthy work dynamics that define many Nigerian workplaces. What role can the values upon which our workspaces are built play in detoxifying our work spaces? And how can both leaders and staff contribute to a work environment where trust, excellence, and purpose thrive?Listen in and join the conversation.

Join us for an unflinchingly honest conversation with Peter Rahal, founder of RXBAR (sold to Kellogg's for $600M) and David Protein. Once labeled "disabled" by the school system, Peter reveals how his dyslexia fueled his contrarian mindset, relentless hustle, and ability to spot market gaps others missed. Learn how childhood humiliation became his rocket fuel, why he refuses to celebrate wins, and how his "anti-authority" approach built two category-defining brands. This episode is for entrepreneurs, neurodivergent thinkers, and anyone who's been told they don't fit the mold. Key Takeaways and Topics: Peter Rahal's background in the food industry and how this influenced his entrepreneurial journey. The idea for RX Bar emerged from a gap in the market for paleo-friendly protein bars. Early partnerships can significantly impact the success of a startup. Scaling production requires understanding supply chains and manufacturing processes. Product market fit is crucial for the success of any consumer product. Rebranding helped RX Bar reach a broader audience and clarify the product's value proposition. Rahal's childhood experiences shaped his resilience and contrarian nature. The importance of teamwork and aligned values in partnerships cannot be overstated. His success in business came from organic growth and word-of-mouth marketing. Be very, very efficient with your time. Seek criticism, seek feedback. The positive feedback loop of being doing something you're good at is motivating. Your 20s are the time to go all in and take risks. The Failure Factor Podcast was brought to you by Off The Field Coaching.

Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Hayden Crack, the hardest thing in growing a small business is: "Wearing all the hats — knowing when to let go, when to hire, and balancing reactive versus proactive decisions. It's tough to get the timing right, especially when transitioning roles and responsibilities." What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Hayden Crack mentioned he's not a massive reader, but he does regularly read the Australian Financial Review and finds value in that. He hasn't read many business books but was recommended The E-Myth during the episode. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Hayden Crack recommends a few valuable podcasts and learning resources for small business growth. He regularly listens to the Grow A Small Business Podcast for insights from fellow entrepreneurs, and enjoys 15 Minutes with the Boss by the Australian Financial Review for quick, impactful business tips. He also found the Lifestyle Tradie Podcast particularly inspiring, especially a story about a plumbing business that scaled to 17 team members and was eventually sold, highlighting the power of strong systems and minimal owner involvement. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Hayden Crack recommends that the most important tool for growing a small business is yourself—specifically, your mindset and willingness to learn. He highlights the value of investing in personal development, building a strong network, and surrounding yourself with experts like a great accountant or digital strategist. For Hayden, continuous learning, listening to podcasts, and having a trusted support network are key resources that drive sustainable growth. As he puts it, “You are the biggest tool—that's why it's your business.” What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Hayden Crack's advice to his day-one self would be: “Just keep going.” He emphasizes the power of visualizing where you want to be, setting clear goals, and believing in your own capability. Early in his journey, he didn't think he could achieve what he has today, so he'd remind himself that everything is achievable with determination and the right mindset. Believing in himself sooner would have made a big difference. Book a 20-minute Growth Chat with Troy Trewin to see if you qualify for our upcoming course.

What makes a great project manager in the residential construction world? Matt and Risinger Build business partner, Tim Hill, sit down to discuss what they've come to define as a GREAT project manager. Drawing on years of experience, they identify five essential qualities: LeadershipCollaborationCommunicationWork EthicPeople ManagementGreat project managers earn the respect of their teams through fairness, transparency, and deep knowledge. They must also collaborate effectively with everyone involved—from clients and design professionals to subcontractors and suppliers. Strong communication skills are key, with an emphasis on sharing updates early and often, especially when things go wrong. Weekly written progress reports, regular client meetings, and proactive problem-solving help keep projects on track. A solid work ethic is another cornerstone: successful PMs do whatever the project demands, even if that means working late or on weekends. They're not just clocking hours—they're taking ownership. People management, the fifth trait, ties everything together. PMs need emotional intelligence, adaptability, and the ability to influence and motivate a wide range of personalities. Matt and Tim also discuss the value of critical and logical thinking, which underpins all five qualities. They recommend using tools like PSP testing to evaluate applicants' soft skills and cognitive strengths.
