Artificial intelligence is moving beyond proofs-of-concept and into real-world production—but how do you make it work in highly secure environments? In this episode, Ben Van Roo, CEO & Co-Founder of Yurts, joins Amir Bormand to discuss the challenges of implementing Gen AI in government, financial institutions, and enterprises with strict security requirements.Ben breaks down why 2024 is the year of POCs, but 2025 will be the year of production, the biggest "gotchas" companies face when scaling AI, and why infrastructure—not just modeling—is the real challenge. We also dive into why AI adoption in enterprises is different, how organizations must navigate governance and security, and whether legacy companies will finally leapfrog into AI or repeat the mistakes of slow digital transformation.
Yurts has raised a $40 million Series B led by XYZ Venture Capital to provide the DoD with gen AI. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this episode of "Sleepless in Singapore," I recount our journey from Irkutsk to Mongolia, an adventure that brought unexpected friendships and breathtaking natural beauty into our lives. Upon arriving in Irkutsk, we didn't linger, quickly moving on to meet Katya, a local who shared incredible tales of her solo travels, from scaling Everest's base camp with minimal gear to navigating deserts and jungles on a shoestring. Her stories, filled with humor and resilience, were both inspiring and a stark reminder of the vast experiences the world has to offer. Our next major stop was Lake Baikal, renowned for its crystal-clear waters and stunning natural beauty. This part of the trip was a profound experience, offering moments of reflection and connection with nature. The simplicity and magnificence of Baikal, coupled with the shared moments with friends old and new, underscored the journey's essence. As we moved into the Mongolian steppe, the landscape shifted to endless horizons and a profound sense of tranquility. This segment of our trip, marked by the rugged beauty of the steppe and the simplicity of nomadic life, offered a deep connection to the earth and a peace seldom found in urban existence.
Programming note: This is a rebroadcast of an excellent episode from December, 2021. If you enjoy camping but don't love sleeping on the ground, there's a nifty solution at some of Oregon's most popular state parks. In addition to the tent and RV sites that populate campgrounds, some parks come equipped with additional accommodations: cabins and yurts that offer a more comfortable way to spend the night. On this week's episode of Peak Northwest, we discuss what to expect and what to bring with you if you're looking to do a little state park glamping. While far from a luxury hotel, these cabins and yurts offer a much cozier way to stay the night immersed in nature. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ulaanbaatar is the capital of Mongolia, a country of 3.3million people which despite this relatively large number is one of the least densely populated countries in the world. Outside of the capital, the landscape of the country is largely made up vast and rolling grasslands known as the steppe where nearly 30 percent of Mongolia's population still live a nomadic or semi nomadic lifestyle, moving around the country with their livestock, travelling on horseback and living in large round tents called Yurts. Apart from these remaining nomads, 50% of the population live in Ulaanbaatar itself in relative modernity so it makes sense that there is a busy nightlife and music scene. It hasnt always been like that though. Between the 1920s and 1990s Mongolia was ruled by the Mongolian Peoples Revolutionary Party a communist, soviet aligned government that tried to use music as an ideological tool. Under their reign, all traditional forms of music had to be stripped of any religious or spiritual associations and any diversity in instruments or distinctive musical traditions associated to one ethnic group or the other had to be eliminated so a that all music in the country followed a nationalist and socialist agenda in form and content. Western music was of course completely forbidden but in the 1960s and 1970s it was impossible to stop the infiltration of pop and rock influences seeping into the country. Soyol Erdene are known as the first ever rock band in Mongolia. Soyol Erdene, which roughly translates as Cultural Jewel were formed in 1971 when the Minister of Culture gathered four young musicians and said “England has a band, the beatles of four young men. Why shouldn't we have a similar band?”. And so was born Soyol Erdene. During the years under the communist regime the band worked hard performing at official events and concerts. Their music consisted of Mongolian Folk songs in a rock style arrangement and their lyrics were often lifted from famous mongolian writers. Despite this they were often criticised by the government's censorship department for promoting western music styles and fashions. In the early 1990s, Mongolia transitioned from a Communist regime to a multi-party system with a market economy. All of a sudden, the Western music that had previously been forbidden was now available, and young musicians started to gravitate to the sounds of western pop music and use it in their own music, reproducing the sounds of their favorite bands with Mongolian lyrics. All of a sudden it was also ok to celebrate pre-soviet Mongolian musical traditions and this has led to a fascinating phenomenon of Mongolian bands blending the traditional music of the country with modern western music forms. One of the first bands to do that was a band called Altan Urag, a pioneering band in the genre of Mongolian Folk Rock which blends modern rock music with the traditional instruments and most notably the technique of Mongolian throat singing, a very unique vocal technique where one vocalist produces two pitches simultaneously. Magnolian is a Mongolian modern indie folk artist who has already found success outside of Ulaanbaatar, he sings his songs in both Mongolian and english, recording separate versions of each song. He recently played at the famous south by southwest festival in the united states and his style is described as Ulaanbaatar's answer to leonard cohen meets the nation. The Hu is another band that have shot to huge global success since they appeared on the Ulaanbaatar scene in 2016 that, like Altan Urag, fuse elements of traditional mongolian music like throat singing but this time with the style of heavy metal. Bodhikuu is another artist from ulaanbatar who is bringing traditional mongolian music into the future, blending samples of traditional music and recordings from the mongolian soviet era with hip hop beats.

Live at the Glamping Show USA, glamping industry experts held an open discussion on pressing issues in the industry and discussed what has happened at the Glamping Show USA. MC Fireside Chats is joined by Sacha Macey of Yurts for Life, Connor Schwab of Sage Outdoor Advisory, Zachary Stoltenberg of Clockwork, and Nick Purslow of Glampitect. The discussion started with welcoming the Glamping Show USA's success with record-breaking numbers of participants and exhibitors. Connor Schwab introduced Sage Outdoor Advisory, a consultancy company that helps to launch glamping businesses and outdoor resorts. As per Schwab, data shows that among the 700 units they tracked, they saw that units with private bathroom investments pay off, and data across 750 units revealed that when customers plan glamping trips, they find value in food and beverage offerings. Schwab said Sage Outdoor elevates the industry by tracking data and making it publicly available to give confidence to glamping industry investors. Purslow of Glampitect, a glamping design specialist, highlighted the importance of working together and collaborating as a vital part of the industry. He also said that speaking with the right people makes a big difference. “Make sure you stop and pause and speak to the right people,” Purslow added. Meanwhile, Macey of Yurts for Life, a UK manufacturer of luxury yurts, emphasized the vitality of understanding guests' needs to provide a better glamping experience. Macey posed the question, are they a family? Are they a couple? Noting that different guests have different needs that must be addressed and recognized to provide a full glamping experience. Stoltenberg of Clockwork, an architecture and branding company, said that hospitality is driven by guest experience. He said it is essential for industry players to ask themselves what guest experience they want to deliver. Schwab left a meaningful message saying hosting is storytelling, “what kind of story do you want to tell?” Schwab ended.

“Seeing the amazement on customers' faces, knowing that they will look through the dome and see the stars… gives me goosebumps.” John Gibson, Owner & CEO, Secret Creek I've always been drawn to yurts, tipis and tents – there's something both novel and romantic about the structures, particularly today's upscale versions, so I was eager to speak with John Gibson of Secret Creek. I learned something unexpected and fascinating during this episode – why a former business executive would, rather than start a new company, choose to purchase a “legacy” business, and how he went about it.

It's national go RVing or camping month and in this episode, we're going to play a little game of did you know? While I was attending the RV Park Conference two weeks ago, I learned some very interesting facts about camping. Some of these facts for those of you on the fence about camping, you may just find that you're going to suffer from FOMO – you know Fear of missing out syndrome? But for the rest of you, you're planning your next camping trip! Did you know that in 2021 there were 93.8 million active campers in the US? The population of the United States is 332 million. It's time to entice the remaining 238 million that camping is the new way to travel this summer, for work or extended stays! 56.9 million of those campers camped at least 1-time last year. 9.1 million were first time campers. Covid most definitely had an impact on those numbers as we tried to distance ourselves and escape back to nature. Who's camping? Back when my mom and dad would come to Florida for the winter, the demographic was easy to identify as you drove through any park. They were all retirees or baby boomers! Today, it's a combination of Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z. They are all finding their own way to afford this new lifestyle. The new camper is likely to include a majority of non-white's including 22% of black campers. It may be hard to believe but millennials are digging this too, and yet they maintain their style by going glamping. For those not familiar with the word glamping it's a combination of Glamourous meets camping – glamping. What does that look like? Think of an insulated teepee with fluffy bedding and an AC unit also known as Yurts. Treehouses are quite popular too! You have to say they are quite creative! Did you know? That 56% of campers prefer tent camping? This one blew my mind! I thought for sure it would have been RV'ing but let's face it, we all started out tent camping and graduated our way up to an RV as our desire for finer things were enhanced by our age and level of income. Tent camping is running in first place over the last 3 years! 54% are millennials? 54% are non-white campers? And to say nothing good came out of Covid would be an understatement. Did you know that 21.5 million people will be camping over the 4th of July holiday, and if you haven't made your reservations yet, you may be too late! Why are people camping? Like I mentioned above, it may have been caused out of a need for security and safety after the Covid pandemic. Campers also agree that it helps with emotional well-being, helps to escape the day-to-day grind and relieves stress and it improves relationships with your family or friends, or they just want to sit around a campfire. Sign me up for that one any day! I get lost just looking at the dancing flames. In 2022 they are predicting 61.3 million camping households in the US. I'm Mechiel Kopaska of the Fearless Innovator Podcast, thank you for listening and I hope you found this information helpful.
In between tents and cabins are yurts. Yurts consist of a frame covered in canvas and often have wood stoves or heaters inside for warmth. On a particularly rainy day the rainfall patters quietly overhead while a wood stove crackles and the canvas of the tent flaps and flutters in the wind. Spotify listener?

Will God answer your prayer if you don't end with, "In Jesus' name, Amen?" Learn what praying in the name of Jesus really means. I taught this week on the call of Abraham and the development of God's missionary call through the nation of Israel as they were responsible to communicate the truth of God to the cultures around them. They were given that great commission. The great commission didn't start in Matthew 28. It started with Abraham in Genesis 12 —the first three verses there —Abraham, chosen by God to raise up a nation who would then be God's priests to the world so that they would be a blessing to all of the nations. They had a unique role in the great monotheistic religion. The Jews were supposed to reflect morality to the world. Israel was to witness to the name of God. When they talked about the name of God and witnessing to God's name, that does not mean that they were to let everybody know what they called God, "Yahweh." Their goal wasn't to cover the countryside with evangelists who just let everybody know what the right word for God was. It meant something different. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ https://linktr.ee/jacksonlibon -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #realtalk #face #instagram #amour #take #couple #dance #dancers #vogue #voguedqnce #garden #tiktok #psychology #beyou #near #love #foryou #money #ForYouPizza #fyp #irobot #theend #pups #TikToker #couplegoals #famille #relation #doudou #youtube #twitter #tiktokers #love #reeĺs #shorts #instagood #follow #like #ouy #oyu #babyshark #lilnasx #girl #happybirthday #movie #nbayoungboy #deviance #autotrader #trading #khan #academy #carter #carguru #ancestry #accords #abc #news #bts #cbs #huru #bluebook #socialmedia #whatsapp #music #google #photography #memes #marketing #india #followforfollowback #likeforlikes #a #insta #fashion #k #trending #digitalmarketing #covid #o #snapchat #socialmediamarketing H

If you can find a place to live and work on Orcas Island you're set. But who's got the land?
If you enjoy camping but don't love sleeping on the ground, there's a nifty solution at some of Oregon's most popular state parks.In addition to the tent and RV sites that populate campgrounds, some parks come equipped with additional accommodations: cabins and yurts that offer a more comfortable way to spend the night.On this week's episode of Peak Northwest, we discuss what to expect and what to bring with you if you're looking to do a little state park glamping. While far from a luxury hotel, these cabins and yurts offer a much cozier way to stay the night immersed in nature. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
In this episode of Can't Find My Way Home, I was joined by Gary Hurlstone Gary shares with us his musical journey. From first picking up the acoustic guitar after hearing Bert Jansch's ‘Anji', to joining local bands and the numerous styles and genres of music that he's played over the years. Gary takes us through the recording process for both of his recent solo albums, the locations, the musicians, and of course, during these covid times - some unique circumstances. There's talk of touring throughout China, the Chinese Glastonbury, staying in Yurts, the transient nature of being an Expat musician and being in a band, playing on the most unusual of stages, and the appetite for Western music in the country at that time. In the Top5, we blether on about getting lost in music, armies of songwriters, playing at the WOMAD Festival and for the British Council, and the joy of Snarky Puppy. All this and just how many musicians can you fit into a Tiny Desk performance...Let's get right to it...Gary Hurlstone Follow Gary https://www.garyhurlstonemusic.com/ Can't Find My Way Home https://linktr.ee/cantfindmywayhome --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/craig-branch/message

Novel Dialogue sits down with Michael Johnston of Purdue University and George Saunders, master of the short story form and author of the Booker-prize winning novel Lincoln in the Bardo. This conversation was defiant of novelist and chemist C.P. Snow's lament that the sciences and humanities have become siloed from one another. George shows us how works of fiction are laboratories for all sorts of experiments. He also explains how his background in the sciences and engineering has shaped his approach to writing fiction. (Hint: it has a lot to do with the search for truth and a faith in iteration.) Michael, George, and Aarthi get into the nitty gritty of truth-seeking and how good literature moves us away from the simplified “Cruella DeVil model of morality.” Indeed, some of the most interesting moments in fiction reveal the patterns of self-deception by which good people justify bad actions. George explains how achieving moral seriousness in literary composition demands playing bouncer to direct moral concerns. Instead, he engages in a process of “micro-choosing” that allows morality to emerge from revisions and decisions that might not be entirely conscious. We move from the writing process toward its result: an intelligent but “shaggy” efficiency. Shagginess is what keeps literary form – whether the short story or the novel – moving dialectically between fun and function. George has taught creative writing for almost as long as he has been a professional writer (and his recent A Swim in a Pond in the Rain is a brilliant foray into his course on the Russian short story). In the final part of the show, he discusses the value of literature for the individual reader and for anyone struggling to balance material survival with a sense of purpose.

In some ways, the Yurt is the original tiny house on wheels. If you’ve never seen one, a Yurt is a portable, round tent covered with skins or felt and used as a dwelling by nomadic groups in Central Asia. In America, Yurts have been popular since the ’70s, and I’ve wanted to interview a yurt dweller here on the show for some time. Enter my guest, Kevin Obrien, who lives year-round, off-grid in his yurt in New Hampshire. Kevin will explain why he chose a yurt over other forms of housing and what the benefits and drawbacks are for full-time living. Full show notes and images at thetinyhouse.net.157In This Episode:What is a yurt?Is a yurt appropriate for cold-weather climates?Where to buy and what you can expect to pay for a yurtWind, cold, and heat: the yurt can handle it allKevin's unique sleeping arrangement sounds super comfyNo fridge? Off-grid cooking and food storage solutionsPlans for the interior of the yurtThis Week's Sponsor: PrecisionTempLet’s face it, most Tiny House dwellers want their homes to be small, but not uncomfortable. That means reliable, unlimited, hot water. PrecisionTemp’s propane-fired hot water heaters reliably provide unlimited hot water, and they’re specifically designed with tiny homes in mind. With their patented VariFlame technology, these are the only gas-fired tankless water heaters approved by RVIA and are ANS certified. Features such as cold weather and wind protection, precise electronic temperature control, and onboard diagnostics are standard. With higher efficiency and 55,000 BTUs of power, these units produce far more hot water than traditional water heaters. And since they don't come on unless you want hot water (or to protect against freezing), you may find that you use as little as half the propane or natural gas as before. So go ahead and take that long, hot shower! PrecisionTemp is offering listeners of the Tiny House Lifestyle Podcast $100 off plus free shipping using the coupon code THLP.

I feel like camping is one of those icons of adventure. If you were to look up the profile picture of adventure often you'd see a tent, a campfire, maybe some smores, some stars under the sky, something that just resembles the outdoors. Camping has been one of the easiest entry points for me into a life of adventure and to create these magical, simple moments with my family. Today's episode is really devoted to camping as a broad umbrella, but then more specifically diving into when you're ready to rent an RV what are some insider tips to help navigate the process. Adventure is about stretching yourself and embracing discomfort. Camping not only embraces adventure definition, it provides for the gratitude experience to come home to your bed and take a hot shower. Types of Camping 1. Sleep Out: whimsical, out under the stars 2. Tent: Lower cost enclosure to protect from rain and animals, but by my definition still considered roughing it 3. Pop-up/Tent Camper: A soft-sided enclosure up off the ground with some space and basic amenities like electricity, cupboards, potentially heat and A/C 4. Travel Trailer: Equivalent to a tiny house with the amenities of a small living space, including a bathroom. Need a vehicle to tow. 5th Wheel is a supersized travel trailer that requires a special hitch to tow. 5. RV(recreational vehicle)/Motorhome: 3 classes that range in size and amenities, where vehicle and accommodations all in one enclosure. Class A: Are the big rigs Class B: Campervans Class C: Mid-sized Where can I rent an RV? local dealerships Rental Business (such as Cruise America) Sharing Economy, Peer-to-peer platforms (that operate similar to Airbnb* or Turo*) are RV Share or Outdoorsy* Note: Airbnb also has Yurts, covered wagons, and RV as an accommodation type. What to look for when renting an RV? 1. Unlimited Mileage or cost per mile along with other potentially hidden fees (kitchen items, bedding, cooler, insurance, generator usage). 2. Sleeping arrangements: do you want to be folding down the table every night to have someone sleep? Getting out of a bunk in the dark unfamiliar place to go to the bathroom might not be ideal for young kids. Be aware of your needs and size. Just because it claims it can sleep 10, doesn't mean I'd recommend it. 3. Features My non-negotiable for our first renal was a back up camera. Determine what aspects will help you have the best experience on the road. Is it a first aid kit? Night lights? If it's not listed as the host if they would include it. 4. Drop off/Pick up times or delivery fees 5. Weight and towing capacity: Make sure to include the collective weight of the humans riding in it. 6. READ THE REVIEWS. Always do this, if there are no reviews you are taking a much greater risk. I have learned so many things by thoroughly reading the reviews to understand other customer's experiences. 7. Communicate with the host/owner. The more clear you are on the front end the better the experience will be on the road. It's not annoying, it's making sure it's a good fit for both parties. General Planning for RV Trips Where are you going to park it? Not only to sleep but also knowing the limitations of the attractions you plan to visit (example: National Parks space to turn around). Some parking lots are more RV friendly than others. Time and speed you travel with a RV is much slower than car. Average gas mileage is 9-15/mph. Storage Capacity, you might want to rethink that large hard-sided suitcase for everyone's clothes. Hangers a a good add in and collapsible containers. There are more people on earth camping now than ever before. It may require early planning. Please be respectful and while enjoying the beautiful scenery, be responsible and pick up after yourself. Key Takeaways and Resources 1. Camping takes you out of your normal environment allowing you to stretch and be safely uncomfortable. 2. What is your icon for adventure? 3. The spectrum of camping can be broad. Choose the entry point that works best for you. 4. Camping creates the opportunity for forced together time just by they nature of proximity. Close quarters inside, but outside the door, the possibilities are endless. 5. Sometimes magic is in the dirt. Life can be dirty and messy so having experiences that aren't prim, proper, and perfect are healthy life lessons. 6. Rentals are a great way to test the opportunity. It gives you the try before you buy experience over and over without the responsibility of maintenance and storage. 7. There are hidden fees to dig into beyond the rental price including mileage, inclusion of items, insurance, and generator usage. 8. Reviews from customers are a goldmine of information. Read the reviews to inform insider tips and experiences. Help yourself and future customers by leaving specific written reviews about your experiences. 9. Ask Questions. Anything from clarification of fees, layout, cleaning expectations to location and route recommendations. Be clear up front so you have a good experience on the road. 10. Book Sooner than later. The earth is seeing record numbers of people camping which looks to be a trend that will continue through summer 2021. Below are links to resources cited in the podcast, some include discount codes to help you save money on your first rental experience. AirBnB: $65 off your first booking. They have accommodations that include stationary Yurts, Covered Wagons and RVs that might be worth exploring. Outdoorsy: $50 off your first rental. Peer-to-Peer platform.

Good morning and welcome to Montrose Fresh, the new podcast from The Montrose Daily Press. It's MondayDecember 14th and we're here to bring you a closer look at our top stories, events and more that matter to us here in Western Colorado. Today, our focus is on the two grants, totaling more than $951,000, that The Montrose County School District Board of Education recently accepted. Today's episode is brought to you by Elevate Internet. Whether it's for your home or your business they offer the best speeds at the best price. Right now, if you refer a friend you can get $25 off! Give them a call for more information at 844-386-8744 or visit them at elevateinternet.com Before we begin, here's an event going on in Montrose this week that we're looking forward to. On Friday at 5:30 the Rosemont Baptist Church invites everyone to come and enjoy "The Wonder of It All" - A Christmas Musical. Guests will be treated to beautiful Christmas music and a narrated enactment of the first Christmas story. This event will also be live-streamed on their website - RosemontBaptist.org, their Facebook page and on YouTube. Now, our feature story. The Montrose County School District Board of Education has accepted two grants, totaling more than $951,000. The grants are targeted to support and retain students. One $846,320 grant from the state has already been allocated for the district's use. They plan to implement everything this January. The City of Montrose has also awarded the district a grant in the amount of $104,765 for outdoor learning modifications. This one is funded through the city's allocation of federal Coronavirus Relief Fund - also known as the CARES Act. In the most recent MCDS Board meeting the idea of keeping kids in school was emphasized. In the effort of keeping kids in school, the new funding will allow the district to purchase materials for two 30-foot yurts as well as materials for three 28-foot tipis. Yurts can be permanent or semi-permanent structures. For MCSD, the yurts and tipis will be used as an additional learning space so that students can maintain social distancing. Jessica Beller, the director of Instructional Services for Montrose and Olathe schools, said the outdoor learning center will be an evolving space. Over the next several years the space will eventually house The Forest Preschool, an after school program, the homeschool alliance program, and more. The yurts will accommodate up to 25 people at a time, which will not only fulfill a need during the COVID-19 pandemic, but also for years to come. Beller said that this will lead us to an alternative pathway to learning that emphasizes outdoor experiences. The yurts and tipis will be placed on a vacant piece of property. These spaces will help to lower the risk of spreading COVID-19 because they will allow the school to keep groups of people together instead of cross-cohorting groups. Kendall Cramer, City of Montrose grant coordinator said the next steps involve entering into an agreement with the city. This process can take up to two weeks. The $104,765 CARES Act funds must be used by the end of 2020, because unused funds must be returned to the U.S. Treasury. Cramer stressed that the City of Montrose seeks to be a strong community partner and is pleased to be able to provide funds to assist with MCSD's needs during this unprecedented time. Next, here are a few other things going on in our community that you should know about. Northside Elementary School has transitioned to remote learning through the rest of December. After about two years in business, Froggy's Tacos will close. The owner said there was too steep of a drop in customers since the pandemic hit. Plans were introduced for Montrose's first DC fast charging station for electric vehicles. In just a few months EV owners will be able to charge up at a Tesla and ChargePoint station in the city. And finally, we know it's a difficult time to search for a job right now, so we're excited to bring you a new opportunity. Today's job listing is from Western Colorado Community College. They're looking for a Technical Instructor of Medical Preparation to join their team. The salary range is between 40-45 thousand dollars per year. If you think you're a good fit for the role you can apply online at coloradomesa.edu. That's all for today, thank you for listening!

David Mielke was born in Campbell River, BC, Canada, where an extraordinary teacher named Marie Rackham helped him turn his life around when he dropped back into high school after running away from home at the age of 15. He went on to work in Los Angeles as an actor and singer, both appearing in film, television, and regional theatre, and creating and performing one-person shows under the banner of his company, The Rainbow Man Productions. His original works include Rediscovering the River and Spirit of the Unicorn. When Marie was diagnosed with cancer, David returned to Canada to care for her, and together they created 114 episodes of the award-winning Cozy Grammar series of video courses as a way for her to be, as she put it, “where cancer isn’t.” After her death, he worked in LGBTQ social services before returning to working as an actor, producing additional content for Cozy Grammar, and creating and performing his own theatrical productions with his husband, Thomas Hitoshi Pruiksma. Their most recent collaboration is a musical called The Driftwood Bridge.

Culinary Experiences to Savor in Bayfield County You can learn a lot about a community’s local culture at its eateries. On this episode, Director of Tourism, Mary Motiff, shares some of the food experiences to savor in Bayfield County and takes us to the Old Rittenhouse Inn to find out about a local, holiday tradition that has been bringing the community together for more than 50 years. Plus, a film festival, wine weekend and other events to discover this November. The ‘Bounty of the County’ If you had to describe the food culture in Bayfield County, Mary would say it is “eclectic,” but also unique in its bounty of fresh, local ingredients on the menu at almost every restaurant due to the large number of farms and orchards along with Lake Superior and more than 1,000 inland lakes that make it possible. There are only two fast food restaurants in Bayfield County which helps people to make more thoughtful meal choices. Many people who visit and live in this area have strong connections to the land and its abundance of natural resources and are happy to not have so many fast food choices readily available. In addition to the fresh fish that is caught almost daily, there are greens, root vegetables, berries, apples and much more local produce grown here. There are also local meat producers and a sheep farm that makes cheese. The area’s large population of Norwegians has also influenced the offerings, especially at local bakeries. Each community offers farm-to-table specialties that create variety and inspire local chefs to be creative. In the Cable/Namekagon area, Mary says you’ll find the Garmisch USA Resort, a restaurant that specializes in traditional German cuisine, the Rookery Pub, which has a modern American menu and a fish “un-fry” and the Rivers Eatery, a wood-fired pizzeria that has creative toppings you can experience, like Thai peanut chicken. The Iron River area has lots of resorts with their own house specialties. Barbecue is big in the summer months, where there is often friendly competition among the restaurants for the best BBQ cuisine. Washburn has a one-block area downtown that is the hub for nightlife in the area. Restaurants include the Snug, an Irish Pub with a limited menu of fresh fish, homemade soups and Scotch eggs. Next door is DaLou’s Bistro serving wood-fired, traditional Italian-style pizza, panini, pasta specials and house-made gelato. And close by is Patsy’s Bar & Grill, which does serve bar food, but at the next level. They are often cited for having the best burgers in the county, serve an enormous fresh fish fillet, delicious fries, homemade coleslaw and Firecracker Shrimp. You can expect the unexpected at Patsy’s – don’t let the exterior fool you! Bayfield has a huge variety of restaurants that also include bistros and high-end restaurants. And if you want to go where the locals go to eat, Mary says to check the parking lots for cars. Bayfield County has a relatively small population. If the parking lots are full, you can bet it’s a great place to eat. Mary also recommends going to community dinners put on by the Knights of Columbus, the Lion’s and other local fundraisers. They typically serve some of the best food at reasonable prices and made with love and a passion for their cause, often using local ingredients. A Holiday Tradition The Old Rittenhouse Inn has been putting on Wassail lunch and dinner concerts since 1975. Wassail is an old English greeting that means “All Hail” or “Hello.” It later became a toast to good health and prosperity when people gathered to go caroling. They would carry a large bowl of Wassail punch that everyone would drink as they went from house to house. Rittenhouse Owner Mark Phillips says the tradition of having Wassail dinner concerts was started by his parents. Both were music teachers who worked in Madison, Wis., where they were always busy during the holidays. When they moved to Bayfield and started the Old Rittenhouse Inn, they thought they would spend a quiet holiday with the family. Mark’s parents were so sad and lonely without holiday performances and music, the next year they started their own Wassail Dinner Concerts, while also serving gourmet meals. The Inn was decorated “to the nines” with a huge Christmas tree standing in the foyer. They even created their own Wassail punch made with Bayfield apple cider, spices and bourbon. While most people think of concerts as music performances on stage in front of a live audience, the Wassail lunch and dinner concerts are served with a twist. While the patrons are seated at the dinner table being served a gourmet meal, the performers are entertaining amongst the guests, walking through the dining room in a very immersive experience. Mark says his dad works all year to prepare new material for the annual concerts. Wassail lunches are typically one to two hours with a three-course meal that includes a colorful and festive salad, a choice of fresh fish or roast pork with an apple cider marmalade glaze or champagne chicken and a choice of desserts. The dinners include a five-course meal, adding soup and sorbet, and usually lasting two to three hours. For Mark, these Wassail lunches and dinners are very nostalgic, but what he really loves is that they bring the community together for an anti-commercial holiday that feels authentic. The Wassail Lunch and Dinner Concerts are ticketed events, so to make reservations, you can call the toll-free number, 800-779-2129 or 715-779-5111. Mark says the holidays aren’t the only festive season at the Old Rittenhouse Inn. They also host a Fall Brew Weekend, a three-day Wine Weekend and have romantic Valentine specials along with some other special events. They are open for Thanksgiving and start the Wassail Lunch and Dinner Concerts on Nov. 30 (which run through Dec. 22). There will be 13 performances this year and some are already sold out. The Old Rittenhouse Inn closes for few days over Christmas and then reopens for New Year’s Eve celebrations and more wine weekends during the winter months.

Today's conversation is with my dear friend Jocelyn Ling, a tremendously talented Business Model Specialist in the Office of Innovation at Unicef. She's currently on sabbatical from the Organizational Innovation consultancy Incandescent. She's been an interim biotech CEO, an investment consultant at the International Finance Corporation, the private investment arm of the World Bank Group, and even an instructor at Stanford's DSchool. The Show Notes section of this episode are pretty epic, since Jocelyn dropped a lot of knowledge and wisdom on me and you - frameworks aplenty for you to get a handle on designing the innovation conversation and leading the process, with, as she says, healthy skepticism, suspended judgment, and disciplined imagination. I wanted to give that Hubble quote it's full space to breathe, because it's so lovely...I'm going to read it in full here: The scientist explores the world of phenomena by successive approximations. He knows that his data are not precise and that his theories must always be tested. It is quite natural that he tends to develop healthy skepticism, suspended judgment, and disciplined imagination. — Edwin Powell Hubble There are a few subtle points that I want to tease out and draw your attention to as this all relates to conversation design and shaping them for the better. Invitation Jocelyn highlights one of my favorite ideas in conversation design - invitation. A leader invites participation through their own openness, not through force. Anyone can lead that openness to new ideas, even if they're not an “authorized” leader, through their own example. Invitations can look like asking the right questions or hosting teams or creating physical or mental space for the conversation. Cadence Jocelyn talks about the tempo of a team or an organization, and these larger conversions do have a tempo, just like a 1-on-1 conversation does. Leading the innovation conversation often means slowing down or speeding up that tempo to create clarity and safety or progress and speed. Goals Conversations start when people have a goal in mind. Each participant in the conversation will have their own idea of what that goal is and the innovation conversation is no different. Jocelyn points out, rightly, that it's critical for a team or an organization to develop their own clear, shared definition of innovation. I did a webinar recently with Mural and my partner in the Innovation Leadership Accelerator, Jay Melone, on just this topic, and you can find a link to the templates we used in the show notes...I think you'll find those helpful, too. Narrative Storytelling and coherent narratives are core components of everyday conversations and the innovation conversation is no different. What Jocelyn asks us to focus on is the idea of stories as memes - what happens to your story after you tell it? Does it communicate or convince? Great. Does that person retell that story and evangelize it for you? That's even better. Leading change means being able to tell the second type of story - viral anecdotes. That's all for now. The full transcript and show notes are right there in your podcasting app and on the website.

So we're going to start the real, quote unquote real conversation now. Um, because I feel like every conversation we have is like, is interesting and insightful for me and it's never on the record. Jocelyn: Lets make this on the record! Daniel: We're going to make this on the record! And if you ever want me to, if you want me to take any pieces off the record, you just let me know. I think the reason why I wanted to have this conversation with you about innovation leadership is, I'm going to go way back. One of my earliest memories of you is back when we were co-designing early, like an early iteration of what the design gym was going to be. we were sitting down with, you Me... Maybe it was Andy, it was probably Andy and you were like, let's have a conversation about our working styles. Jocelyn: Oh Wow. I don't ever remember that. Yeah, that does sound like something that I do and I did. I still do it till today, with any new team Daniel: Yeah. Well, so like that was my first time somebody had invited me into that conversation and it blew me away because I'd never really, I mean this is going back. I mean this is 2012 I guess this is a long time ago. I had never really thought about how I work. Nobody had asked me that question. I'd never had that conversation about how and where do I like the, what I would now call the interfaces of my work conversations to happen. And I'm just wondering like, who introduced you into that conversation and where did you learn some of these soft skills? I mean, this is a quote unquote soft skill. Where did you learn some of the soft skills that you do in your work that you use in your work? Jocelyn: That's a great question. I think that probably learned a lot of my soft skills through day to day interaction. I think I've had the privilege, like in my job, given that I was an investor before, as well as in consulting to have exposure to a very broad range of working styles and leaders. And particularly so in the consulting world, you are especially attuned to how clients work. And so I always try and make sure that I am not only understanding how teams come together, but also how individuals work because as a consultant it's up to me to match and really tap into what is an invitation into their world. So I think that's how I survived, absorbed it over time. I think specifically maybe at that point in time and I continued to refine how I work with teams over the years, but maybe back in 2012 likely from, um, a really wonderful mentor in Boston, mine who I worked at International finance corporation at the World Bank. Um, my boss at that time, BG Mohandas is and continues to be an amazing person in my life. Uh, probably taught me that specific question and style. Daniel: That's amazing. And like, do you ever feel like, um, that that's an unwelcome conversation or is it ever hard to bring that topic up for you? Jocelyn: I often find it's as easy and very welcomed conversation and that is an investment of even 20 minutes with a new team member goes a very long way to setting the tone for their relationship and for the partnership. Daniel: Yeah. Yeah. It's interesting this idea of, of a pattern matching like perceiving patterns in somebody else's behavior and then making that effort to sort of like alter your own. Jocelyn: Oh, absolutely. I think that, um, and this is something I learned in my incandescent work. It's like the concept tempo. And I think you and I might have even spoken about it before, that not only understanding the tempo of an organization and by tempo I mean like the speed of how a team comes together and moves and how an individual does work. So you can imagine and overly generalize and say a startup has a really fast tempo comparatively to a larger fortune 500 company, which runs a little bit slower. And it's in the more that you're able to understand what Beat and Tempo you're stepping into, I think the more than you can learn to be effective in the kind of work that you want to achieve. Daniel: Yeah. Well so perceiving that tempo and then the ability to do something about it. I was literally, I'm bringing it up right now, so I'm just listening to a podcast, um, called all in the mind and they're interviewing. Who are they interviewing? Why is it so hard to find the show notes on these things? This is ridiculous. I can't believe I'm doing this on the phone. Um, Michelle Gelfand, she, she wrote a book, um, about um, making and breaking cultural rules and she has this idea of tight and loose cultures like cultures where social norms are tight and people follow all the norms and loose cultures where people don't. So I love the idea that you're also noticing, you know, there's, there's probably tight and loose work cultures but fast and slow ones. Right Jocelyn: Absolutely. Daniel: I'm wondering, this seems like a good time. I feel like I have a tendency to like plop people in the middle of a conversation. Um, if you want to backtrack and tell the folks in radio land a little bit about your career journey, like what you're doing now and what brought you into what you're, what you're doing now. Jocelyn: Yeah, sure. So my background, it's sort of like a combination of different things. Um, I like to think that, um, any exploration that I take always leads me to another interesting opening. Um, I started out my career in finance, um, with the Royal Bank of Canada and then followed a slightly untraditional path in that I then moved, um, from where I was living at a time from Vancouver and I moved to New York to then, uh, be in full exploration and ambiguity mode. And that's when you and I met Daniel to start this, start the Design Gym, which was something completely new, entrepreneurial in a new field. And that's also where I got introduced to the world design and absolutely fell in love with it. We started an accidental company together. Daniel: Yup. Jocelyn: And then along the way ran into visa issues. And got kicked out of the United States, if you remember that, too! Daniel: I do! Jocelyn: And then found myself in Kenya where I then work in impact investing with an amazing nonprofit and then later on the World Bank and then found my way back to New York. The US couldn't get rid of me that quickly! Came back to the US legally with a visa in hand and, uh, worked for a strategy consulting organization, design firm called incandescent. And I've been there for the past, uh, five plus years now and, and right now I'm on sabbatical with the firm and have taken up residency at a UNICEF innovation team. So it's been a meandering path, but all for wonderful teams and causes. Daniel: So not everyone will know this, but like, I feel like, um, you are amazingly one of the many people try to get in touch with you through me on Linkedin. Um, when they're, when they're interested in organizational design and organizational innovation...incandescent, like is, uh, is a decent player in that space. Um, I don't know how they, how they managed to build their name. Maybe it's...I'm assuming they do good wor Jocelyn: Oh, I hope so! Daniel: I don't know none of it from firsthand, but like five years. Can you tell me a little bit about what, what organizational innovation and uh, and some of the tempo work that you're doing with that you did that incandescent? I'm asking you to sum up five years of work! Jocelyn: I'm going to reframe your question slightly because I think that what might be more interesting instead of me naming off projects for folks is to share some first principles of how we work, which could be interesting cause we bring that into every single client engagement that we do. So Indandecent was founded by a man called Niko Canner, a wonderfully brilliant individual, also a mentor in my life. Um, and I've learned so much from him and joined the firm when it was just him and another individual. So I was his second hire. Um, and it was found with the focus of how do we understand, how do, how do we build beautiful businesses? Um, and how might we build this in an intentional way that you're really looking and thinking about the whole system from the start? So that's one of the principles of how we look at things. Jocelyn: It's like how do, how does a organization as a system work together? I think oftentimes when consultants like step into a project, their worldview is a very specific task or project that has been carved out for them. When Incandescent steps into a project. We always ask the question, how does this touch our other things and how do we ensure that all of the nodes that it touches works together? So they were designing something that sustains and lasts and not just some designing something for in the moment.So that's one, one of the mindsets and principles are how we bring, um, things in l Daniel: Long term thinking! Jocelyn: yeah, absolutely. Long term thinking. The second one would be, um, we literally do our work in principles. We will spend a lot of time upfront, um, whether we're designing, uh, how a team comes together, whether we're designing a strategy. A lot of it, a lot of our time that's invested upfront is in what are the principles of how a team would work together, what are the principles of strategy? Um, and once you clarify that, it just unlocks so many things. It has a waterfall effect, um, in terms of just like designing everything else from that. So I think that's another way of how we work. And I think the third is probably a high amount of, um, intentionality and co-creation. So we always designed something with the client. Um, and I think that part of that then hopefully leads to really great work because we're not designing in a vacuum. Daniel: Yeah. So a lot of it goes to like, this is, uh, I've, I've just recently been reintroduced to the term prejecting. There's the project and then there's the preject. But it seems like the prejecting phase where you really think about the whole system and the team principles and Co creation, a lot of that just sort of falls, falls into place from that, right? Jocelyn: Yep, absolutely. And let me give an example of that, just to bring it to life. So about two and a half years ago, we were approached by three major foundations like the gates foundation, the Hewlett Foundation and Ciaran investment foundation and they came to us were referral and they said, we're interested in designing, we're interested in putting together a conference in the world of adolescent sexual and reproductive health and to bring together designers and global health folks and put them a conference together and on the call with them we set food. That's really interesting, but we're not really just conference folks and event planners. There are many people who do that, but if you're interested in what the representation of what this conference is, which is if you see this as a watershed moment for how design can be brought into the world of adolescent sexual reproductive health, let's talk about that Jocelyn: Let's talk about like what this conference is enabling a strategy which hopefully the three foundations would might have or is interested in doing and the three program officers were really interested in having a conversation. They had an Aha moment on the call and said, we want that. You want to think about a larger strategy and how us as funders can come together. And um, that kick started two years worth of work where we did end up designing a convening and a conference. But we also ended up really bringing to life a strategy that, um, was unique to the field. And that was very much co-created with these three program officers through lots of working sessions remotely and we were all in different locations over time. So hopefully that example brings to life some of the things I think I've spoken on before. Daniel: It does. And it also like is a wonderful case study of reframing and engaging stakeholders in conversation. Like not starting from a no, but starting from a, Oh, isn't that interesting? Or Oh well why is that important to you? Jocelyn: Yeah, it's like my favorite Albert Einstein quote, it's like if I had 60 minutes to save the world, I'll spend 55 minutes defining the problem and five minutes coming up with a solution. So like if you're solving for the wrong problem or if you don't even realize what you actually really want. I think there's a lot of room to think through that together. Daniel: Yeah. Well, so I mean this goes to this, this question of like what innovation even means, what problem solving means and it seems like it's really attached to systems thinking for you and at least in your working in Indandecent like defining what the boundary of the problem is is really, really essential. In that sense it almost makes a like a linear or simple definition of innovation really hard I would think. Jocelyn: I mean innovation is such a complex topic of which there are many, many definitions. Like you can range anything from Clay Christensen's disruptive innovation definition to um, I don't know, Steven Johnson's book, which I really like... Where good ideas come from. He defines innovation in a different way. And all that really matters is that the organization that you work for and the team that you are on has one single definition of which all of you agree on. And that's clear. Daniel: We'll wait, hold a second. Jocelyn: There are so many! Daniel: Well, let's, let's roll. Let's roll it back. Cause like I'm, my, my brain is remembering Steven Johnson's book... It's like, yeah, I think of it as like, um, that moment in a, I think it's Apollo 13 when they like dump out all these, the bucket of parts that they're like, this is what the astronauts have on board and we need to literally make a square peg connect to a round hole. Like let's figure it out. And it always felt to me like Steven Johnson's definition was the more parts you have, the more pieces you can put together. Um, it's like, it's, it's having a wide ranging mind and absorbing lots of influences. Jocelyn: Yeah. I mean, Steven Johnson, I think he talks about, I don't know whether he likes specifically names a concise one sentence definition, but I think he talks about the fact that innovation happens within the bounds of the adjacent possible. In other words, like the realm of possibilities available at any given moment. Daniel: Yeah. Right. And that we build on those adjacent possibles. So I guess maybe where I would, I'm backing myself into agreeing with you cause like I was like, Oh, do we all have to have the same definition of innovation? Um, we, we do, in order to try something we have to say like, Oh, here's all these things we could try. I think this would be more, uh, impactful. Right. And that that's a conversation that, that somebody needs to be able to dare I say, facilitate in order for the innovation conversation to proceed. Jocelyn: Yup. Agree. Daniel: Okay. Glad you agree with me! Well, so then like what, um, what, how, how can I be more provocative and get you to disagree with me? What, like what, what do you, what have you seen in terms of like a leader's ability to, uh, foster, uh, or, or, or what's the opposite of foster disable innovation inside of a team, inside of an organization, in your own experience? Jocelyn: Um, I mean, I think the role of a leader, I have a feeling you're going to agree with me, but I think the role of a leader is very simply to create the conditions that, that foster and support innovation. What I mean by that is openness. Um, and to extend invitations out to their teams, whether that's actually literally or even in a physical space or to, uh, lead by example. I think once you create the leading by example and the creation of conditions, there could be many other elements to that. But those two are to me, feels core to what a role of a leader should do. Daniel: Yeah. Well, so then this goes to the, the idea that a leader doesn't necessarily have to be authorized. Jocelyn: No, not necessarily. Yeah. On that note, I actually think that it really depends on the organization and, and how far the authorization can take you. So for example, if I compare contrast and apple versus Google, um, and does a really wonderful graphic of the number of patents that each organization has filed over the years. And in Google's, it looks like it's all over. You can see sort of like patterns that emerge like literally visually from all over the organization and from our authorization standpoint. Like folks are welcomed and encouraged to explore ideas and invent new things. And you see that through patents that had been filed across the organization versus apples, it's a lot more concentrated because it's a lot more centralized and they have much more of a stage gated process. I would imagine. I'm not to say that one is correct or wrong, it just, again, it depends on the kind of organization and how clear you are. Um, overall on how innovation is being fostered.. Daniel: Yeah. Well, I mean, how, how, how does a leader maintain that clarity I guess? Is, is, uh, it's an interesting question. Jocelyn: That's a great question. Um, maybe they can think about in clarity in terms of creating a discipline and a ritual where, I know it sounds counter intuitive, but I think a lot of, when a lot of times people think about innovation, people think about it as serendipitous moments that come to you. I actually think that innovation comes to you in a much more disciplined way when you actually continuously put sustained effort, um, into exploring x, whatever that x might be. Um, again, very close. I'm gonna bring up Steven Johnson again. But like I think that his ideas around the exploration of the adjacent possible, unless there's sustained probing, you're not going to suddenly one day come up with a huge Aha if you've never thought about that topic. You know, for example, like I have never thought about a topic of um, the reinvention of, of uh, space rocket, Daniel: I love that you're struggling to think of something you've never thought of! Jocelyn: Right! Like...How to I reinvent a space rocker, I don't know! I've spent hardly any time thinking about that. And so it's highly unlikely that I am sitting here with suddenly come up with something breakthrough right in that area. Daniel: Whereas there's people who are literally pounding their heads on that boundary constantly. And of course those are the people who are going to be like, what if we...? Jocelyn: Yeah, absolutely. And so as a leader, if you create the space of, Hey, every week we'll have a ritual and this is just a very specific tactical example of I'm going to solicit ideas from the team around the boundaries of building a new space rocket. Then maybe it will have interesting ideas. They eventually come up over time. Daniel: So there's like my, there's a couple of things I want to probe on. Like one is we were talking about cadence and tempo of organizations and then you use the term ritual. Uh, and I feel like those two are really intimately related to, I'm literally working, the podcast interview I'm working on right now is all about ritual, uh, and designing rituals for people in it. And it's sort of an interesting thing to think about what the cadence of these, um, innovation rituals, uh, could be like. And, and what are you find are some, I don't know, do are, are there some that you're like, oh, here are the basics. Here are the essentials of innovation rituals. We talked about one, which was like the team. Jocelyn: Yeah. Daniel: Team alignment conversation. It's like a really powerful ritual for at least making sure that we're all working in this in, in ways that are harmonious, which is really, really valuable. Jocelyn: ...great question. Well, one ritual that I really like is something that I know, uh, the design gym that we do. And also folks that I you does as well is that they have inspiration trips. Um, that teams would go and say, hey, we're starting something new and here's a new topic that none of us have really thought about before. How, how might we go and get inspired? And if you have that as a ritual when you start, whether it's a new project or even midway when you're stuck, I think that could be a really powerful thing to get unstuck. Um, instead of churning internally. And I really liked that concept. Um, overall to just look externally, whether it's true, take a moment and actually physically be in another location or to learn by having conversations with others that are different. Daniel: Yeah. Yeah. I think the, and behind that is this idea of being able to identify what the real need is. I think about it in two ways. One is like, let me go see where else this problem is being solved. Like specifically like, and then there's like, let me see in a broader sense like what other types of problems are similar to this? And, and this could be like, oh, let me, like if, if any other countries willing to share with me how they're doing rocket flight, then maybe I can learn the totality of the problem. But you can also do the thing where like, hey, let's look at what bees do and let's look at what seagulls do and let's look at other types of propulsion. Um, and so I feel like that's like that that definitely goes to the like the breadth of, of inspiration... Jocelyn: absolutely. Daniel: Well I think, and I guess that's where like, you know, cause what I was excited to talk with you about is like good leadership and bad leadership skills. And it seems like a really, really powerful leadership skill is the willingness and the interest, the curiosity, but also the willingness to sort of like look at the boundary of the possible and say what else is possible. Jocelyn: Yep. Absolutely. I also think that a great leadership skill in when leading an innovation team is, um, knowing what bets to place at any given period of time. So one of my favorite quotes is by Edwin Hubble. Um, and he says, and he said this in like a 1930s in his cal tech commencement speech being says that a scientist has a healthy skepticism, suspended judgment and disciplined imagination. I'm going to say those three things again because I love the combination of the three assigned. His has a healthy skepticism, suspended judgment and discipline imagination. And he talks about it specifically in the world science, but I think it's actually really applicable in the world of innovation because he describes a way of being, which is kind of strange. You're supposed to be skeptical, but you're also suppose to suspend your judgment. You're supposed to have the imagination, but this upland because you don't want me to go too wild. And I think that, um, the balance between the three of how do you actually observe ideas that come in, gathering facts, understanding it, testing your expectations against them, um, is I think a quality that I would hope anyone who's leading innovation would have. Daniel: Hm. That's really beautiful. I, and when did you absorb that quote that's like, it's seems really close to your heart, which is beautiful. Jocelyn: Um, great question. I learned here when I was interim CEO of a biotech company in incandescence portfolio, I'd taken over and I was new to the world of science, also new to being an CEO of a startup. And one of the biggest lessons I took away was that quote is I think that there is such a beautiful orientation in terms of how scientists discover things. Um, it's really their way of being. Um, and my brother actually is a scientist and I see how he thinks about problems and how he approaches them. It just, that combination of when is it the right moment to imagine something really amazing. Because a lot of scientists, they don't know what they're discovering. They're just out there. Yeah. Um, oh, when is it? The moment when you were gathering back a set of data and you're saying, hmm, does data's actually telling me that it's not that great and that is not the direction that I should go in? And just being, and really refining the balance between the three modes whenever you're faced with facts or contradictory pieces of evidence, I think is, um, something that I will always be very grateful for for my time. And as a biotech CEO, Daniel: something I can't say at all, I've never done that, Jocelyn: hey, one of my other lives, you know. Daniel: Well, so this actually goes back to, um, like an organization has got to have multiple bets, right? And they need to have, uh, uh, a roadmap of, you know, crazy bets and less crazy bets. And in a sense like I would, I would integrate that as an innovation leadership skill. 100% is the ability to like, uh, you know, what would you call it? Handicap, um, various items on the roadmap, but then also like to, to, to, to make sure that those bets are spread out. Jocelyn: Yup. Have you heard of the ambition matrix before or seen the framework of it? The ambition matrix? Daniel: No. Illuminate me! Jocelyn: so it's a pretty simple framework. Um, where I think on one of the axes is solutions. The other axis is challenge, but in any case it's basically concentric circles like moving out of core, adjacent and transformational... and where it talks about how do you actually categorize your bets in terms of innovations or core innovation is something that's very different but also very needed comparatively to something transformational. Um, and I think visualizing it that way could be really helpful when facilitating a conversation. Daniel: Have, have you utilized that in your, in your own work? Jocelyn: Uh, we are actually looking at the application of it at UNICEF right now where we're looking at how we're, how different projects could be core, adjacent and transformational. Daniel: Uh, can you, can you say a little bit more about that and maybe tell us a little bit about, uh, the, the role you're, you're doing right now? because I don't know too much about it yet. Jocelyn: Sure. I mean, and now we're getting sort of like a little bit into the new ones of like how has variation different in the world of international development versus in the world of the private sector? Um, there, there are different lenses that one might me take. Um, at UNICEF and my role is as a business model specialist on the scale team, the current innovation team is divided into three pillars. We have a futures arm where we look at what are new landscapes and markets are sort of shaping out there. We have a ventures arm which looks at um, deploying capital in frontier technologies. So think block chain, drones, all fall under the ventures arm. And then we have a scale team and that's where I sit. Um, and the way that we think about innovation is like how might we accelerate projects or programs that are demonstrating a lot of practice but need to go to scale and actually spread a lot faster than your current rate of expansion. So those are three different lenses. The very definition obviously of innovation varies depending on the lens that you take. Because like a venture's lens for example, is they're using capital...an now we're getting a little bit more into the strategy side, but were they using capital as an accelerant versus ... we are using actual internal capabilities on the scale team to uh, accelerate innovation. Daniel: Huh. That, that's interesting. Well, so like can capital accelerate the innovation itself or can capital accelerate the spread of the putative innovation or learning about whether or not it is in fact effective at scale? Jocelyn: Probably both. I think that UNICEF takes the fans that we are a catalyst in an ecosystem and if somebody else is doing something that's really wonderful, like what is the best role that we might be able to play? And in that case it could be the provision of capital. Um, in some other areas like in scale, it might be the deployment of internal capabilities and in the futures team it could be putting out a thought leadership piece on how urban innovation works or, um, one of our other projects is, you know, just to give you an example is, um, what we're calling a 21st century Ger project where we have brought together different partners in the private sector and academia. Um, Arc'Teryx, North Face, University of Pennsylvania to help us redesign a Mongolian Ger, uh, which is those Yurts that, uh, folks live in. It's a materials design project in order to increase an improved installation of these structures that folks live in, which would help with air pollution. Because right now these yurts are not insulated very well and families end up burning a lot of coal internally, which causes a lot of health issues. Um, but if we're able to actually improve the installation, then we're able to, uh, help from a health perspective for all of these different families. But that's a futures project... no one else is doing that in the market, it's pretty niche but much needed in terms of urban innovation. And we have a really fantastic set of partners that are working with us on it. Daniel: That's so cool. And, and what that really illustrates for me is like how many levers there are for a change. Like, cause obviously you could also be working on the combustion side, right? Or on the electrical generation side. Jocelyn: Absolutely. Daniel: And, and doing and it sounds like there's been a decision and it makes a lot of sense actually. Cause this I've known about this problem, it's like I never once thought about it from the installation side, which is really subtle. Jocelyn: yeah. Um, there's a really wonderful framework. I feel like I'm throwing a lot of frameworks, Daniel: I love frameworks! Jocelyn: I figured it's you, so I'll just throw out all the frameworks in the world because they know you love them. Um, if you haven't seen Doblin 10 types of innovation, sure. I would highly recommend that you take a look at that because he talks about, uh, it breaks it down into basically three large categories, configuration which is made out of your profit model and network structure process you're offering. So product performance, product system and you experience, so like your service, your cattle, your brand, your customer engagement, you can innovate along any of these things, um, and have it be a really wonderful type of innovation. Or you could even combine different categories together to actually have something more transformational. So for example, a core... Just use the ambition matrix against this new types of innovation. Jocelyn: A core innovation for um, a, let's see, a channel or brand could be a new campaign that they have never thought about before. And it's fundamentally, you know, people, or a brand might choose to use Instagram, which is a channel they may not have ever used before in terms of reaching a completely new segment of audience. Or they could combine different things together, like a profit model combined with product performance combined with customer engagement, which are three different things, which is the example of the Mongolian Ger project that I just gave you, which is how do we actually improve not only on the product or on the distribution on it and involve the Mongolian government to help with the profit model side and then also engage users as part of the understanding from a health care standpoint that burning so much coal, um, would affect your health x ways. Daniel: So this really goes back to the, the idea that this can be a discipline and Yup. And, and, and my mind is going back to, like, six sigma. Like here are the types of wastes and yeah, you could also think like, okay, well how can we improve this system? And what you're doing is you're reducing the loss of heat, right. As opposed to focusing on the efficiency of the generation of the heat. That's just really cool. Um, but at the same time, I feel like sometimes these, the, the discipline is not a replacement for somebody seeing potential. Like, so this goes back to like your skill as a business designer, which is like how did you do this? How does one decide if something's got a putative legs? You know, you're like, oh, this has got, this is there's some juice here that's worth the squeeze. Jocelyn: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I think that, um, on that particular project, I, I really have to credit the team behind that where it was not only the partnerships team that, so a lot of potential, but it was the futures team and also the head of the scale team that said, oh, there is something really interesting here. I think that this reframing of how we relate to heat could result in something really breakthrough. And we have a really fantastic partner arc'teryx who said, great, let's try it out. What's the worst thing, you know, in the spirit of design thinking, let's try out a prototype and see what happens. Daniel: Yeah. Well, so then, yeah, this, this is, we're like building out a, a lovely model of innovation leadership here. Why don't we just like a fearlessness, a willingness to prototype, but I think there's also another piece which, which we're like getting towards which is like storytelling, which is like the ability to communicate to somebody an opportunity that you perceive that maybe they don't perceive. Jocelyn: Yep. How do you think that, given that you work so much in the conversation side of things, how do you think that storytelling or facilitation changes with this innovation leadership lens? Does it change or does it not change from a skillset standpoint? Daniel: I mean, I think storytelling...you just reverse interviewed me, Jocelyn! I mean I believe that a storytelling is like really fundamental. Like I, my, my love for storytelling and narrative is like one of the reasons why I made a narrative phase in the design gym model. There isn't a narrative phase in ideas model, which I think is actually a major failing. It sort of stands outside of the design thinking process. Whereas I think that it is, it is design thinking is a way of telling stories. Um, I have to think in when we talk, each phrase that we respond to each other with is forming a story and like, what's like, if I say a non-sequitur, it's like we define a non-sequitur as something that's not linked to the rest of the conversation, it doesn't, it doesn't connect or it doesn't relate. So I think, um, great story telling makes things seem obvious, right? Like it, which is sort of like, hey, here's this amazing opportunity and here's this huge problem and we should do something about it right now. Like that's just the fundamental innovation storytelling model, right? That I know, like, I dunno what, what, what's your, what your core story telling you know, framework is like, when you want to make sure that you're communicating that value to someone else. Like what, what you, how do you make sure that rises up from all of the, the, the charts and figures. Jocelyn: Yeah. I don't know if I have a storytelling of framework per se, but what I do think storytelling needs to be, are powerful anecdotes that somebody else can tell the story on behalf of you. So you maybe it needs to be memorable enough. Yes. And one of the stories that comes to mind, um, and this is not a client that I've worked with and is more of an anecdote that a colleague of mine has told me is that, um, when he was visiting the headquarters of Alcoa, which is a mining company, um, and he was running late for a meeting and he was in their London offices and arrived like just on time. They made him sit through a 10 minute training video on safety, even though they were in the middle of London. There were no mines around anywhere. Jocelyn: They were in professional building. But you have to sit through 10 minutes of training because that was one of their core values, um, that it, that they really wanted to talk about in Alcoa. And the reason for that is when the new, and this is, um, this is definitely a couple years ago when a new CEO of Alcoa came in to take over the company. At the point in time, he decided that the way that he was going to turn around the company was through a message of safety. And so every single call that he did with his earnings, with his leadership team, um, with employees that he would meet, he would ask them, how are you actually talking or implementing safety in your teams? Um, and it's one of the safest places to work right now. Um, which is kind of insane. Well, for a mining company and even more so than than, um, other mining companies that are out there. But then he just really drove that message home by building it into one of the core values of the organization. And that culture is spread through asking that simple question and that people could retell and say, here's how a CEO and a thinks about it. Yeah. It's not really sort of like on the innovation lines, but I think it goes to your storytelling point around how the things get told, um, and emphasized upon. Daniel: Yeah, it's that drumbeat. Uh, and whatever you are talking about is what will be on top of people's mind and it's what will happen. It's really cool. What a great story. I'll retell that. I don't think people often think about storytelling, uh, in terms of what will happen after I tell the story. Um, yeah, and designing for retelling is definitely a really important heuristic for, for, you know, if you're going to architect the narrative for sure. simplify. Um, so Jocelyn, we're coming up against our, our, um, our time together this time together. Is there anything else that, um, that we haven't talked about that you think is worth bringing, bringing up, uh, on these topics? Any thread that we've left loose that, that's, that's, uh, sticking out of your mind? Jocelyn: Um, the only other thing that comes to mind is the topic on learning, which I feel like could take a whole other session on its own. Um, but I wonder whether there's anything that you would like to unpack around there because I think so much of creating a discipline in ritual for yourself is also paired from a complimentary standpoint of how does one learn and how does one practice? Because that's it goes hand in hand. You can't really create a discipline without actually practicing something. Yeah. Um, Daniel: well you talked a little bit about this in terms of like, uh, uh, the organizational capability is part of the innovation, but then inside of that capability are people and people, uh, change at the rate of, uh, people, human conversation developmentally happens. Yeah. I don't know, at a certain pace, um, in which case like, how can you, you know, increase that for an organization? How can you increase that for, for a person. But I think it seems like you're, you're positing and I agree with you that like, um, having some, some discipline around it, having some frameworks about can, can really help people. Jocelyn: Yup. Daniel: Couldn't agree more. We just tied a bow around that. Yep. How do you feel like you've grown in your own capabilities? Like I feel like you've, you've gone from strength to strength, your increase in your career. How do you stay focused on, on your own growth? Jocelyn: great question. I think, um, from a practice standpoint, I think something that I do, and I don't know how intentionally I truly do this, but definitely it's woven into, uh, my day to day is that I practice, I do a lot of distributed practice. I don't know if that's an that's an actual term. I don't know, maybe I just coined that. Daniel: Well, it is now! Jocelyn: And what I mean by that is, um, I try and make sure, like whenever I learn a new concept or a new skill set that I, I, uh, practice it sporadically and in a very spread out way. So for example, I'm not in the world of design thinking right now and neither am I a designer. There was a period of my life where I was very immersed in it and that was all I was reading and thinking and speaking about on a day to day basis. Now I have a different lens and focus, but I still upkeep my design thinking side, um, to whether that's like sporadic engagements or, um, and I teach stuff like at the d school and that's pretty nice, like longer term cadence to force me to actually think about like new concepts in design or I go to design events or read books and there isn't....it's no way near the intensity's uh, we read it, my intensity a hundred back then. Jocelyn: It's like now it's probably about 15 to 20% of my time and attention, but I kind of keep that on the back burner so that I don't actually lose touch of that. Um, and to also make sure that I remember a lot of the things that I've learned because I think it's easy to pick up something and just let it go and never touch it.. And what's learning something if you don't actually retain things that you're interested in? Daniel: Yeah. This is like, you are using the forgetting curve to your advantage. This is the forgetting curve. I'll, I'll send you a link. I'll put the link in the show notes. I, well, I interviewed somebody, a behavioral, a guy who works for a behavioral Science Company called Boundless Mind and behavioral change works with the, like if I tell you a number today like your, it has no emotional impact but you may remember it in two or two or three or five or 10 minutes, um, the odds of you remembering it next week and very slim. But if I call you up tomorrow and say, Hey Jocelyn, I'm going to call you tomorrow and I'm going to ask you what the number is, you might remember it. And then if like I call you up in, in like another week and I'm like, Hey, you remember what that number is? You're like, oh yeah, I remember the number. Or at least like what the range is like. So it's about like, just like, like, like the radioactive decay curve. Jocelyn: Um, oh, got it. Okay....that's the name of the concept. Not really distributed practice,Daniel: but I like distributed, I think distributed practice is much better. But yeah, that's like, that's the idea is like you're making sure that you are being intentional about keeping it... As my father would say, a used key is always bright. Jocelyn: There you go. Yes. I love that. Daniel: Um, the, the fact that I got into a quote from my father means that it's time for us to stop. Jocelyn: Um, thank you so much for having me. Really Fun as always. Daniel: Yeah, it is. We enjoy our conversations. Likewise. I really appreciate you making the time.
Some girls take weekend trips to Napa Valley, New Orleans, or Las Vegas. Mo and Sarah decided to go to Canada. Poor life decision? Possibly. But if you're a birder (or pretending to be a birder for the sake of a podcast you started), there are few places as incredible as Point Pelee National Park in Ontario, Canada for a spring migration birding trip. This is part one of a two-part series on our trip to Point Pelee for the big spring birding migration. In part one, we interview four friendly birders about their favorite bird moments and their advice for newbies who are just getting started with birding. Plus, listen to some beautiful sounds from the Point Pelee wilderness and the birds that kept us company on our hikes. These sound bytes of chirping birds are perfect for drifting off into a peaceful sleep. Don't worry, we won't be mad.

It's been said that tragedy+time=comedy. But, after further review, it's been discovered that tragedy divided by the square root of callous indifference, multiplied by commiseration, plus time is the true formula. (Also something about A²+B² or something or other) Our guest this week was local comedian, musician, tour guide, pig farmer, history buff, and mother, Samantha Gilweit. Hopefully that's all you need to know because SK never actually got around to asking her about these things. That's not to say that we can glean nothing else about her from this episode. We know she'd be willing to curate at the Paul Newman spit museum. We know she loves Bulls and Moose as long as they party with Teddy Roosevelt. We know she prefers to picnic with Honda. And we know she's not a fan of apple sauce. But most importantly, we know her ties to, and love of, Sonoma County compelled her to do something when the fires hit the wine country this last November. We talked about her spear-heading of relief efforts among the comedy community as well as possible causes of the fires and even some happy stories about animal survival. Of course Babette, as fill-in cohost, made clear her position on Yurts, while SK seemed to be most interested in presidential knife fights. So adding it all up, Samantha made this week's episode greater than the sum of its parts.
Hit the trails in this episode of Bayfield County Wild, as Co-hosts Nancy Christopher and Mary Motiff, director of Bayfield County Tourism, talk to Ron Bergin, publisher and editor of Cross Country Skier Magazine and an outdoor sports enthusiast, about Bayfield County’s highly-rated trail system for cross country skiing and mountain biking, as well as some of the best ways to cure cabin fever in February. An Event-Full February Fat Tire Biking is all the rage in Bayfield County with groups like the North Coast Cycling Association leading Fat Bike Safaris at a new location, either on ice or through the woods, every Saturday. Locations for the Saturday rides are posted each week on North Coast Cycling’s Facebook page and bike rentals are available for visitors. Visitors who enjoy the great outdoors have many opportunities to watch or take part in events: Feb. 3: The Mt. Ashwabay Summit Ski Race has cross-country classic and skate ski races for kids 8 and under, middle schoolers, high schoolers, and adults. Feb. 3 and 4: The 23rd Annual Apostle Islands Sled Dog Race is held both Saturday and Sunday with two main races: a 10-dog, 80-mile race and a 6-dog, 60-mile race.

Riders test their skill and endurance on the professionally groomed American Birkebeiner Ski Trail! Lots of Valentine dining specials are available in mid-February. Find options on our website: travelbayfieldcounty.com. Trail Blazing Bayfield county is a hub for cross-country skiing activity and has been a training ground for winter Olympians, and host to the Junior Nationals, the IPC Paralympic Games and Super Tours. Ron Bergin shares his involvement with two great organizations that have literally blazed trails, creating cross country skiing and mountain bike-specific trails. The North End Ski Club has developed a great trail system with a warming cabin and more than 30km of groomed trails interconnecting with the Birkie Trail and Birkie Classic Trails. Another organization, the Chequamegon Area Mountain Bike Association (CAMBA) has developed the longest, uninterrupted mountain bike trail system east of the Rockies. The trails were recently designated as an International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) Ride Center, recognizing the trail as large-scale mountain bike destination that offers something for every rider. Ice Cave Update Mary Motiff gives the latest news regarding walking access to the famous ice caves. While the caves are not currently accessible, Mary says don’t give up. The Apostle Islands National Lakeshore Facebook page gives frequent updates for visitors. Bayfield County’s New Story Map Located on the Tourism home page of the Bayfield County website is a button that takes visitors to Bayfield County’s new story map that explores where to “play, eat and stay” in the county. Every point of interest is mapped and listed alphabetically, so that visitors can look up the location and information about what they are interested in. Also new, are listings for “adventure lodging” where you can find more exotic places to stay, including Yurts, a treehouse and sailboats.

Many of us have twists and turns in our careers, but what's the story behind a CV that includes being an Engineer in the Army to running Terminal 2 at Heathrow, with some Capital Management along the way? An interesting journey and one that ultimately leads to a business that specialises in the building of Yurts using traditional techniques and materials... join Sacha as she tells us about her work and plans for Yurts for Life. Produced by iamthehow.
Join Eric and the Doctrinaires as they chat about budget blindness, the crazy hat lady, phony southern poets, and much more!
Harps. Hawaii. Yurts. A trio of seemingly disconnected words. And yet, in this first full episode of the GoodRally podcast, we find all three wrapped together in beautiful harmony. Tomasi and Irene Tukuafu are a power couple whose almost-magical dwelling perfectly matches their sublime (and musical) approach to life. They've spent years having adventures together, as well as building and sharing instruments with others. You've just got to meet them.

Infinite Energies with Lisa Benitz Radio Show What is an alternative space? Yurts, Mobile homes, RV's, Domes, Glamping, Tents, Underground Homes, Floating Homes - What do they all have in common?

In this episode we split the Hatewatch Difference. First, Kelsey explores a hatewatch staple, the Prestige HBO Drama Tiny House Hunters. We cover all the bases including yurts, millennial humor, and a Tiny House Hunters drinking game. Then we enter Kelsey's fear landscape with a Hatewatch BYOB, a segment where we each get to bring something to the table potluck style. In this case, The Bachelor serves as the stand in for that shitty friend who always brings PBR, and while Kirstie fails to justify or otherwise expand upon any of her original talking points, we do get pretty deep into some weird shit.
The Bet is on, finally. Can Chris make it the whole show without dropping the F-bomb? The proceeds go to the SagerStrong Foundation, which leads Chris into a story when him meeting Craig Sager, with a bonus David Stern story thrown in (4:50). They move on to their favorite topic, "The Golden Goose" Brock Osweiler getting benched. Of course that leads to other terrible QB's in the league, and USC (8:30). They realize we all should be listening to Michael Irvin more (28:58). Before they get to their terrible picks, Kris vents about Jeff Fisher, again.. and combines that with their dislike of Yurts (29:39). They finish up discuss watching football during Christmas (57:26). Not for nothin' but they got the moves.
Let's get into it: what does the first statement of the Apostles' Creed tell us about God, and what does it mean for how we live and work in the world? Well we're going to have to talk about Hebrew Poetry, Chance the Rapper, Yurts, and (I can't believe we're going there...) Minecraft!

Most of us live in a house. But what if you wanted to live somewhere a lot less permanent instead? No, I'm not talking about a sweet mobile home with an extending section in case you have friends around. I'm talking about yurts, of course! That's right. Live in a round thing for a little bit! Buy a yurt! What, you're still here? You didn't immediately run to the yurt shop? If you're still not sure about the benefits of living in a yurt, give this episode of Take Five a listen. It probably won't teach you anything about yurts, but at least you'll feel better about how unsure of them you are, given that we're even more so.

Snow, biting winds and a tent made to the design used by nomads in Ulaanbaatar ... but Richard Uridge hasn't travelled to Mongolia for this week's Open Country, he's high up on Exmoor. He meets Hen and Leo - who are braving winter on the moor in pursuit of their dream of a low impact, but not entirely low-tech lifestyle - their pig-farming neighbour and the man who made their yurt. Producer Steve Peacock.
