Cameron Powell

In the first of this series on using Covid to advance business thinking and doing, High Performance Story founder Cameron Powell draws on his own experience with adversity, and the importance of meaning, to explain why the way companies search for talent actively filters out talent, as well as diversity and innovation - and why adversity is a good teacher for unpredictable times. “You can’t find the growth mindset of innovators,” he says, “from the fixed mindset of today’s hiring.” In this provocative, contrarian, and wide-ranging conversation, you’ll learn:Why the capacity to manage scary uncertainty - evident in the courageous non-conformity of artists, deep readers, meditators, and entrepreneurs - is absolutely critical to creativity and innovationWhy we should focus on underlying strengths - strategy, empathy, problem-solving - instead of taking lazy shortcuts of asking for specific credentialsWhy the self-employed are masters at the self-engagement and autonomous work that’s crucial to working remotelyWhy using applicant tracking systems to scan resumes can be “the biggest con” in talent, offering us the illusion we’ve discerned things worth discerningWhy “prior experience” ignores learning in, passion for, or even success in an experience - but actively filters out diversity of thought and innovationWhy HR needs more of just about every background but MBAs and people with HR credentialsWhy cover letters should ask candidates to focus on how they get into the Flow stateCameron is a founding member of Humancentric Labs, a consultancy specializing in freeing up human potential for maximum worker engagement and productivity.

How to Hire for the Meaning and Self-Engagement that Make Us Resilient in Pandemics and at Work

Resilience

COVID 19 is a wake-up call that reminds us that we are part of the living system and it is showing us how ill prepared we are to adapt to uncertainty. While some companies have taken the higher ethical road, others have made short-term decisions that will likely not recover from. We are at a critical time to adapt our intelligence, to meet the complexity of these issues and the uncertainty of them.The COVID virus has exactly the same characteristics as climate change does. COVID is much more immediate, but it's having exactly the same impact on how decisions get made and whether they get made understanding impact and system-wide effects. It has an impact on strategy, how we think about where we're going and what we're doing. It has an impact on humanity and the relationship between humanity and the living world, which is a profound and critically important connection that is long been broken. We are in the midst of what is known as a systems level bifurcation.Systems theorist. Ervin Laszlo says we are at a split in the evolutionary trajectory. I quote, "there are laws of complexity, including laws of the evolution of complexity that apply to all systems. A nonlinear system level transformation called a bifurcation is one such law. A bifurcation indicates a change, a radical change in the evolutionary trajectory. Of the system, but a time will come when such a linear evolution is no longer possible. The system faces a stark alternative, transform or collapse. This is the point of bifurcation."This is the moment that we are in. It's an exciting time because it invites us to change our decision-making from linear, which has caused enormous waste and a negative impact on society to impact based decision-making based on recognizing and respecting the systemic effects. It is having an impact on the assumptions that we make underlying how we hire people, how, people are treated.In this series, I'll be introducing and interviewing different people bringing different perspectives on what opportunities business has and you have to really adjust thinking to adapt to the complex times were in and to take advantage of the moment to co-create better solutions that allow for humans to bring them whole selves to work, to express their talent, their creative talent, and to work with complex issues, respecting their character and their nature. Complex issues do not respond well to linear approaches. I invite you then to join as we learn from this simple virus which may have brought enough of a pattern interruption to allow us to rethink and reinvent what we want in the world and to co-create it together.My name is Dawna Jones. You can find me on LinkedIn at DawnaHJones or on From insight to action.comMy work involves adapting decision-making to meet complex situations, emergent strategy where we don't have a clear picture of the end point anymore, transforming organizations using complexity principles, which are far more effective and provoke, different ways of thinking and ways of making sense of situations.Join me on this series.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/insight-to-action-inspirational-insights-podcast.

Agile Fluency with Diana Larsen

Anxiety can be paralyzing or motivating, yet it holds the wheel behind most decisions today, fears for survival, uncertainty about the future and lost lifestyles, or the implications of climate change. Each person has the opportunity to use these moments as opportunities for reconnection, and cooperation. To implement local to global solutions that offset climate change or social inequality through collective action. Find out how to use adversity and life’s interruptions to expand conscious calm and confidence in uncertainty. Host: Dawna Jones

Dawna Jones is a gifted interviewer.  Just listened to Neuroscience of Flow with Steven Kotler. Not only was the subject matter incredibly powerful with a message on how important it is to &#34;restore&#34; as being in the flow is pretty intense. This interview was also in the flow with a listening that invited a continuity in the questions - Dawna&#39;s trademark!

Operational Implications of Digital Transformation with Bill Sanders

Have you ever walked into a workplace, perhaps yours, and felt 'off'? Or noticed that you feel better when you're not at work? Architects Ricardo Peralta and Vladic Roskin are dedicated to changing that feeling by designing workspaces people love. By paying attention to sound, light, flow, green spaces and the tone and mood, they've found that companies benefit. In this conversation we talk about environmental physics and how you design workspaces as a strategic decision.Healthy human interaction relies not just on personal and interpersonal skills but also on the way the space supports interaction. In Decision Making for Dummies I included the reported statistic from a large drug manufacturer that decision-making speed and accuracy improved 47% when consideration was given to people flow.Vladic Roskin  is an architect who believes that, at its best, architecture has the unparalleled ability to implicitly influence our behaviours - how we feel, think and engage with others. He is the co-founder at design and innovation consultancy Places People Love that supports leaders in transforming their organizations, environments and people by understanding human interactions with technology, culture and physical space. Fascinated by the various ways our built environment can stimulate a deeper engagement with ourselves and others, Vladic has cultivated a deep passion for human nature enriched by nearly a decade of architectural design experience. His collaborations with renowned architects, purpose-driven entrepreneurs and social enterprises resulted in successful projects in the private and public sphere.Vladic holds a masters degree in engineering sciences and architecture and is on a life-long quest to uncover the mysteries of the human mind. His work is supported by a decade of research and personal experiences living across cultures, travelling to awe-inspiring places and encounters with visionary individuals. Ricardo Peralta is an architect and an urban planner passionate about integrating different disciplines with ancient wisdom to create spaces that nurture and heal. His explorations have led him from design to interdisciplinary healing forms; from organizational strategy to deeper practices of spiritual development. He has participated in the design of numerous large-scale projects, residential and commercial developments, office complexes, eco-resorts, eco-communities, and retreat centers. He was also part of a team that created three entirely new cities based on an innovative holistic approach to urban planning and wellbeing. Ricardo sees architecture as an instrument to connect to one's soul and spirit, enjoys life's celebration, treasures the warmth of a hug, and strives to live a life rooted in the wisdom of the heart. Ricardo has consulted for projects in Canada, the USA, Mexico, Central and South America, Africa, and Europe.He is the other co-founder at design &amp; innovation consultancy Places People Love. Intro music is courtesy of Mark Romero Music.

Dennis walks us through the process of moving from deciding on self-management to implementing it in a company with many moving parts, growing through acquisition and diverging cultures. What each self-managed governance model brings is an explicit structure that enables stronger peer-to-peer relationships. Included in Holacracy and Sociocracy 3.0 is using tensions as a means to work with conflicting zones. Related interviews are found on my previous podcast either on iTunes or the last twenty are posted on www.management-issues.com/eprovoc and on EP15 of this podcast with Tom Tomison.Dennis Wittrock, M.A., Holacracy Coach at Hypoport, partner at encode.org, founder of Integral Europe, founder and former co-director of the IEC 2014 and 2016, served 5 years as CEO and board member of Integrales Forum and the Integral Academy in Germany.

Social Entrepreneurship Driving Global Change - Meet impACT

Laurent Ledoux

Laurent Ledoux has been implementing what we now call participatory governance for years in the financial sector and in the public sector. Isaac Getz and Frederik Laloux are peers and it is thanks to Isaac that this episode talks about how to implement participatory governance in the public and private sector. Laurent brings practical how-to information on working with hierarchical constraints, distributing decision making and autonomy to the extent possible and on his role transforming companies to green-teal models(F. Laloux) and liberating leadership (Isaac Getz).We talk about how to get started, the simplicity of principled decision making as a transformational means to create a psychologically safe workplace, how to respect the intrinsic equality of all through practical measures like cleaning up salary inequities, finding the sweet spot for personal growth, revamping training and a more human role for HR. What happens when you treat employees like adults? That's only one of many insights you'll hear in this episode where we also talk about the role of boundaries in achieving liberties and why working on yourself holds the highest power in transforming organizations. When Laurent talks about liberating organizations he means from the ego of managers. That's powerful and profound!Laurent Ledoux has twenty-five years general management experience as CEO, BU Manager, HRM, Financial Director; in private, public &amp; not-for-profit sectors; for small, medium or large (1.000 +) organizations; in Western &amp; Eastern Europe, and Africa; ten years experience in reinventing (Laloux) &amp; liberating (Getz) organizations: as CEO; led 3 TEAL turn arounds. Has taught executive classes &amp; facilitating public events (mainly on business ethics, CSR &amp; leadership) for ten years. He is fluent in seven languages. In this conversation he talks about his time at the Federal Ministry of Mobility and Transportation implementing autonomy and participatory governance. His current focus is on transforming companies and turning around companies in crisis ethically and through principles that generate psychological safety.Dawna Jones, podcast host, provides insight to business decision makers to strengthen accuracy and opportunity for greater agility in complex environments. She brings a holistic view and profound insights to leaders and decision-makers in complex situations.Podcast intro music if provided by Mark Romero of MarkRomeroMusic.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/insight-to-action-inspirational-insights-podcast.

Using Platform Design Thinking with Simone Cicero

Steven Kotler

As the world changes your most in depth technology is your knowledge of peak performance and flow states. Steven Kotler of the Flow Genome Project explains how neuroscience helps you manage flow and peak performance states; applying self-awareness to action, particularly what you can do to manage yourself through the ‘dark side’. We start with reflecting on how on how well business executives have incorporated knowledge of flow states to function in today’s complex business environment and how business can apply this knowledge to make better performance rich environments. Learn:How exponential growth in sports informs how you navigate exponential change in the business environment.3 qualities of a rich environment that catalyze peak performance states.The Navy Seal approach to training the brain to be present and mindful in the moment while overcoming the panic button.What the 1000 year-old sport of surfing and other weather dependent sports teach about flow states.Preconditions that lead to flow along with the triggers.The conditions for recovering from the neuro-chemical cocktail induced by flow.What business decision makers can learn from pro-athletes.Why Steve Job’s added unpredictability and complexity to Pixar to ramp up creativity.Why Google goes for 10X goals.The competitive advantage to learning.Why flow has become an indicator of market performance in the game sector.Steven Kotler is a New York Times bestselling author, award-winning journalist, and cofounder and director of research for the Flow Genome Project. His books include Bold, The Rise of Superman, Abundance, A Small, Furry Prayer, West of Jesus, and The Angle Quickest for Flight and Stealing the Fire: How Silicon Valley, the Navy SEALs, and Maverick Scientists Are Revolutionizing the Way We Live and Work.
