    EEC 433: From Hostility You Didn't Know You Had to Healthy Strategic Action., with Joy Bertrand

    Joy Bertrand attended law school at Indiana University-Bloomington and the University of Arizona. She received her Juris Doctorate from Indiana University-Bloomington in 1996. While on assignment with the US Attorney's Office, Joy tried and won four federal jury trials and successfully litigated several Seventh Circuit appeals, including a Solicitor General appeal. You've been a faculty member for Gerry Spence's Trial Lawyers College, which is about as elite and high-pressure as it gets. What did you witness happening to the best lawyers in the country over time that made you realize this was a health crisis, not just occupational stress? You describe hostility not as something that happens to us, but as a mindset — even a habit, no different than chronic complaining. Can you further explain that? What happens physiologically when someone spends years living in a state of constant conflict and high alert? You talk about an emotional scale, and you make the point that people don't have to leap from hostility all the way to gratitude to see real health benefits — that massive gains happen just by moving toward the middle. What does that middle ground look like, and how do people start finding it in the middle of a brutal workday? What does it actually look like to stop letting that pressure dismantle your health, your sleep, and your relationships — without losing your edge?

    Myke Wilder has lived his life between two languages, French and English. During a 28-year career in corporate communications, Myke worked in Employee Relations, SAP Change Management, and R&D Reporting; always in both languages. What is the biggest problem that faces managers who are leading teams of workers who speak English as a second language? How can that problem be solved? Why is this a problem? What is the fallout for businesses? What is the biggest roadblock managers face when attempting to improve communications with L2 English speakers? How has working with a hearing disability informed your work with multilingual teams? Myke Wilder Myke has lived his life between two languages, French and English.

    EEC 427: How Using Your Whole Brain Drives Organizational Performance, with Stephanie Bacon

    Stephanie Bacon, PhD, is an organizational consultant, speaker, and researcher specializing in adult social and emotional competence, nervous system regulation, and human-centered leadership. She works with leaders who care deeply about performance, culture, and impact—and who recognize that strategy alone does not create alignment. You talk about "human capacity" as the missing piece in organizational performance. What do you mean by that? You describe your work as "Embodied SEL." How is that different from traditional emotional intelligence or leadership training? What are the hidden costs organizations pay when adult social and emotional competence is low? What is the difference between having a motivation problem and a capacity problem? Stephanie Bacon Stephanie Bacon, PhD, is an organizational consultant, speaker, and researcher specializing in adult social and emotional competence, nervous system regulation, and human-centered leadership. She works with leaders who care deeply about performance, culture, and impact—and who recognize that strategy alone does not create alignment. Execution depends on the emotional, relational, and physiological capacity of the people carrying out the work. Stephanie's expertise sits at the intersection of research, applied nervous system science, group dynamics, and lived leadership experience.  Stephanie understands what happens to decision-making, collaboration, and innovation when people are overwhelmed, fragmented, or operating in chronic stress. And she understands how to help teams rebuild the internal conditions required for clarity, coherence, and sustainable performance.
