  • It’s the Culture with Kevin Baker

    It’s the Culture with Kevin Baker
    May 31 2024
    In Episode 99, host Dr. I. David Daniels speaks with Kevin Baker, a consultant in numerous disciplines, including Education, Educational Leadership, Mental Health, Community Policing, and Race and Social Justice. Kevin’s areas of expertise include Racial Equity, Inclusion and Diversity, Cultural Responsiveness, Trauma-Informed Care, Historical Trauma, Trans-generational Trauma, Unconscious/Implicit Bias, and Power and Privilege. The state of workplace mental health has shifted substantially in the past few years, accelerated by the global pandemic, racial justice reckoning, and other significant challenges. Since then, some organizations have made substantial gains by providing expanded benefits, meditation apps, mindfulness programs, mental health days, and awareness campaigns. However, these investments alone aren’t enough. It's said that “culture eats strategy for breakfast,” and underlying cultures in organizations are at the heart of a practical approach to the psychological health and safety of those in the culture. In this episode, we have the pleasure of chatting with someone who works with organizations and addresses culture from various perspectives. Kevin will take us on a deep dive into a conversation about culture and the ways in which both simple and complex trauma can affect an organization's culture.

  • Psychological Health and Safety and Public Works with Joseph Blackman

    Psychological Health and Safety and Public Works with Joseph Blackman
    May 24 2024
    In episode 98, host Dr. I. David Daniels will speak with Joseph Blackman, founder of Vitendo Training Solutions and host of the Public Works Podcast, about psychological health and safety in public works. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, also known as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), is the largest long-term investment in the US economy and infrastructure in history. From 2022 to 2026, the law provides $550 billion in federal investment in roads, bridges, mass transit, water infrastructure, resilience, and broadband. Though many of these projects will be managed by private-sector construction companies, others will be managed by public-sector public works departments. Depending on the jurisdiction, the attention to and expertise in safety varies. Increased investment in public infrastructure will also increase the potential for exposure of workers to both physical and psychological hazards. One of the important components to reducing the stress associated with this work could be addressed by more effective training. This episode is a continuing conversation from an episode of the Public Works Podcast.

    In Episode 97, host Dr. I. David Daniels will speak with Daniel Kraus, a veteran, former law enforcement officer turned emergency management professional, disaster responder, and consultant who works with multiple school districts in the State of Oregon on “trauma-informed” emergency preparedness. According to a 2023 survey by the EdWeek Research Center, 66% of teachers feel safe at work, which is lower than the 83% of principals and 88% of district leaders who feel safe. Additionally, 46% of teachers who responded to the survey said their sense of safety has decreased since 2019, compared to 36% of principals and 26% of district leaders. Some of the factors that help teachers feel safe include: · Secure physical space · Discretionary alarms · Training · Mental health support · Emotional intelligence · Respectful communication · Teacher autonomy Emergency management in schools, also known as crisis management, is a school's approach to safety that focuses on identifying, addressing, and resolving crises.
