Y'allllllllllllll. I've submitted my doctoral portfolio for dissertation chair matching! In 6 weeks, I'll know who my dissertation chair is and in 8 weeks, my research kicks into high gear!
I kinda can't believe this milestone is already here. For a multitude of reasons. Alas, I have a new course starting up today, so I don't have time to dwell

How It's Built Matters (1 Kings 6:1-4, 21-22)
The fate of any institution is determined by how it is created in the first place.
Artist depiction of Solomon’s Temple Four hundred and eighty years after the people of Israel left Egypt, during the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the second month, the month of Ziv, Solomon began work on the Temple. Inside it was 90 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 45 feet high. The entrance room was 15 feet deep and 30 feet wide, as wide as the sanctuary itself. The walls of the…

Leadership and Management
Photo by GR Stocks Is there a difference between leadership and management? Some of you may agree that you “lead” people and “manage” things. Or is leading and managing a dynamic and symbiotic relationship? Admiral Grace Hopper coined the phrase, “You manage things; you lead people.” a military background tried and tested that phrase. This article looks at the differences between Leading and…

The Digital Horizon: Understanding ChatGPT for Associations
It’s not like we weren’t paying attention to AI before ChatGPT. It’s just that generative AI, like ChatGPT, is different. Way different. And its capabilities have led to an onslaught of articles and chatter about the generative AI tech darlings Midjourney, DALL-E, and ChatGPT. What’s so different about generative AI? You know how every association is a nonprofit, but not all nonprofits are…

On Leadership
The best way to boost employee’s mental health is to give them good managers…. Muhammad Manan Shaikh, via Linkedin I started working when I was 14 years old (just turned 63) and have worked under dozens of managers during that time and they all taught me something.  From some I learned how not to be a good manager and from some I learned what it takes to build a motivated and cohesive team.  Of…

I applied for a job within my company, got an email about scheduling a phone interview, and before I could schedule I got a rejection email.
I emailed the recruiter asking what happened, how it’s a bad look for an internal application for an organization of our size, and that I am upset because the job market is hard and I don’t want false hope. I can handle rejection but a fake out is just mean.
Their response was, “Hope all is well! Unfortunately due to system maintenance you were emailed by mistake. Please disregard that email while we work diligently to correct the issue”.
Do not work for disney, they are a dumpster fire in all aspects. They paid for me to get a masters in organizational leadership and all I learned was that they have NO idea how to properly implement leadership.

I found this in my various scrolling fits today, and while it could probably afford to be just a little more nuanced (intersection between these layers does happen, for one) it did illuminate something for me--or at least help me better describe a terrible annoyance: A great many people who harp on the necessity of critical thinking are themselves often not true critical thinkers. They're contrarians using a vocabulary to punch down.
Genuine critical thinking and a mind open to learning requires a modicum of humility, self awareness, and a willingness toward constructive change. You're not going to learn shit if you're hell bent on thinking you're right all the time, all while shaming others' learning process. [Insert a whole assed essay here about the inevitable overlap between the Contrarian and Cult Leader.]
Anyhow, it is 10000% possible to be critical or even corrective without the overblown 'Mean-Girls' style egotism. Cruelty and condescension are generally not signs of intellectual strength, but are more likely symptoms of either insecurity or a toxic agenda. The self-important arrogance of the bottom three tiers and confidence one might acquire through a sincere exercise of the top two are not one and the same. Sadly, one certainly does like to masquerade as the other, and a fairly serious non-zero number of people--even some otherwise highly intelligent ones--tend to fall for it.

What is the scale that separates leaders from non-leaders?
Most people confuse leadership with management, especially among the executives in organisations. The only real challenge to achieving great leadership is to understand it. Most managers and leaders are lost in mistaken business beliefs and practices inherited from the industrial and factory model of management. Kamil presents a solution in his book Separating Grain from Chaff. The book does not…

Accountability/Validation Update for my current reality:
In addition to being a doctoral student, I work a full-time job at my university. For this course, I have a massive paper that hits earlier in the term than my previous courses and I've been sweating it for a couple of weeks now. (Not helping: I discovered an entire component of the paper I'd previously missed and had an absolute panic attack yesterday at the exact time my coworkers were in the group-chat sending me gifs to celebrate my 2-year work anniversary ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ go figure.)
I've spent the past week reading and compiling the relevant chapters and articles along with expanded outlining (i.e. lots of sentence fragments/half-developed ideas peppered with asterisk crumbs to elaborate on later).
I took today and Monday (the due date) off to work on this paper, with the hope that I'd have actual spare time for errands and adult-life tedium. For morale, I ordered fancy cookie delivery for fuel.
I'm about 4 hours into my day and have solid pages written for about half the paper and a decent plan (*with asterisk crumbs!*) for the remainder. Typically I wouldn't work more than 4 hours on an assignment in a day, but I haven't decided if I'm done for the day yet.
No matter what, I'm at least taking a break!

Be Real, Not Fake (Titus 1:5-16)
The rebellious in the church are those who seek power, status, authority, and prestige. Respect and honor from others is everything to them.
The reason I left you in Crete was that you might put in order what was left unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you.  An elder must be blameless, faithful to his wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient.Since an overseer manages God’s household, he must be blameless—not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to…

Out of the Flotsam
Out of the Flotsam
Expecting employees to do what you know how to do without sharing your knowledge and experience is functional team and organizational suicide albeit at a glacial pace. Managers or more appropriately personnel put into supervisory positions without leadership skills often lack the ability to transfer information enabling others to do what’s expected of them. This is exacerbated by organizations…

Bereavement should always qualify for sick leave. Grief is a real mental health issue. Mental health issues are health issues. This seems obvious, and yet, so many places don't allow it. We should all be working to change the stigma. Nobody should have to work ill. For some of us, that might be the flu. For some, it's overwhelming grief. For me, it is often depression making it impossible to get out of bed. There will be arguments about "abuse of the system." Those arguments just make me angry. If your system is getting abused, ask yourself why you've created a work environment that drives all of your employees away. Then fix that. I promise the abuse will go away. I also promise you, those of us with mental health issues are having a fun, Ferris Bueller's Day Off adventure when we take a mental health day. Most of the time, I'm either unconscious our seriously fighting for my life against an enemy that never stops coming. I'd much rather have the flu.
