Semantics of Leadership Tim Woody

Is opening a car door for a lady, sexist? Jess and Tim discuss a radio debate and how it applies to the workplace.

Tim and Jess have been absent from the Podcasting World but they're back with some authority. Today's discussion is about some life events in Tim and Jess' world. Tim summarizes nearly 15 hours of personal conversations he had with his 91 year-old grandfather and WWII vet, who just lost his wife after 68 years of marriage. Jess drops the bomb that a move to Fort Lauderdale is in the distant future. Welcome back!

Tim's hit life's rut and blown out both front tires. The last two weeks have been hectic and energy draining so podcasting has taken a back seat. Luckily, Jess has returned and inspired him to podcast about resiliency and returning to the things that make him happy: writing and podcasting. This podcast is for anyone that has hit a wall in life and needs some inspiration to bounce back.

Why do we always search for a scapegoat? Why do we always look to hold someone accountable first without examining the broken processes that caused the error or "poor" performance? Is it human nature? Can we avoid this behavior?

Tim and Jess discuss college degrees and their necessity and value. Should you have a college degree to be considered the next President of the United States? Tim doesn't have a degree and Jess does so they both discuss their differences of opinion as well as their thoughts that run parallel.

Jess has spent the last few weeks in Virginia, attending a Coast Guard Search and Rescue Planning Course. She deep-dives into the "ART" of Search and Rescue, what she's learned, what she hopes to takeaway in the last two weeks, and even a misconception or two of her own that she has discovered.
