Inspiring Innovations Learning Moments Logo

As you can tell by this month’s Inspiring Innovations, LEARNING MOMENTS topic… Entrepreneurship and Innovation continue to dominate my current professional responsibilities.

So to support this special momentum…. I have taken a “visual tool“ from my past and prioritized its design and purpose for a quality LEARNING MOMENTS podcast. “What Do I Want… Zone of Professional Discomfort…. and Impactors” all represent timeless considerations and are contained in my own unique Challenge Chart for discussion when pursuing Entrepreneurship and Innovation possibilities!

As a special warning, the podcast goes around 10 minutes so be ready for an extended discussion-ist message.

Enjoy the listen.

LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: Meetin Preparation

Sometimes advancing professional development pushes you to go back to the basics. This month’s podcast Meeting Preparation… is all about that journey.

Whether it is appropriately AGENDA SHARING   in our transparent times… or strategically building Meeting Preparation OWNERSHIP… improving in these areas is just progress necessary.

Finally, although TIME MANAGEMENT is necessary, and even critical in our over-informational world… prioritizing it in every Meeting Preparation moment is solid common sense.

I hope you enjoy the listen and share this message to colleagues.

LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: Global Citizenship

The Cambridge English Dictionary defines Global Citizenship as follows:

“The idea that you should show loyalty and support for the world as a whole as much as for the particular country in which you live.”

Whether it’s the steady advances of technological information-sharing… or the increasing number of global, world-wide impacting issues; the need for everyone to realize their Global Citizenship status is a growing priority.

In the podcast you will hear me state that Global Citizenship is NOT part of my standard LEARNING MOMENTS discussion-ist topic areas. However when you listen closely to my rationalization for this podcast message… I hope you too understand it’s all citizens value.

Enjoy the listen.

LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: “As Much Advice As Possible”

This month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS podcast topic: As Much Advice As Possible”… seems to carry a common sense, natural decision-making recommendation action. However, if people take a quick assessment of the steps they take to make a decision on a major issue, their resulting process may not be as “natural” as we would think.

President John F. Kennedy has helped me form this month’s podcast message. Based on the information contained in a book entitled “Undelivered”, I was able to glean a great assembly of rationales for obtaining As Much Advice As Possible” to make every decision one makes as good as it can be!
