Welcome to another season of POHDCC. We're very excited to kick off the semester with a full slate of talks to be presented by our parent organization OHDCC, and a new show called POHDCC: Round Table featuring this season's hosts Warren Kimmel, Whitney Cook, and Paul Hanvongse, and a rotating roster of guests. (Yes, Carl and Serena will be among them).

The Round Table is a work in progress-- sort of a panel discussion over pizza and adult beverages. We're going to continue to bridge the gap between the classroom and the boardroom by attempting to use our book smarts (and street smarts) to explore some real-world business issues.

Got any topics, business horror stories or questions you'd like us to tackle? Drop us a line at POHDCC@gmail.com and let us know. Who knows-- maybe you'll wind up as a guest on the Round Table!

noreply@blogger.com (POHDCC (and POHDCC: The Apprentice)) — Fri, 11 May 2007 16:38:00 +0000

Even though the spring semester has ended, POHDCC is not going on a break-- yet. We still have plenty of material queued up for release, including the recent talk given to OHDCC by Dr. W. Warner Burke.

We'll miss Carl, who is leaving us to go on to greener pastures (a.k.a. Houston). Rest assured, though, that we're already looking at building a team for the fall season who will be able to expand upon what we've created and take the podcast to that 'next level' that everybody talks about. We'll have a bunch of new original content, new OHDCC talks to share, and who knows what else.

Speaking of the new team-- if you are an incoming TC student and think you might be interested in becoming part of Team POHDCC, feel free to drop myself and Serena a line at POHDCC@gmail.com, and let's talk. Don't worry about your skill and prowess in podcasting. We'll train you.

Yes, we know-- it's been well over a week since The Apprentice finale, and we haven't put an episode up yet. We have no excuse. Except for finals. And papers. And the SIOP conference. And more finals. Also a paper. Did we mention that we'll have some interesting post-SIOP podcast material in the future?

Stay tuned for our Apprentice finale wrapup, featuring a surprise guest from OHDCC (it was a surprise even to him!). Also, stay tuned for an interview that our own Serena Shulman conducted with Dr. Michael Bazigos regarding his thoughts on The Apprentice.

We'll release all of the good stuff soon. I promise.

Thanks for your patience,

Apprentice LA, Episode 10 - thoughts

Once again Whitney Cook saved the day, filling in for Serena (who's feeling much better now, thank you!).

There's a lot for us to talk about this week. Nicole is sent to Kinetic, and swears revenge against her former teammates. Tim is torn between keeping the trust of his team and repairing his temporarily estranged relationship with Nicole. Arrow and Kinetic participate in a sales task on the same turf using very opposite approaches. Kinetic claims the ethical high ground, but loses the task.

We raised a couple of questions on the podcast, and would love to hear your thoughts:

1. Do you think James made the best choice in sending Nicole over to Team Kinetic?

2. Have you been the newcomer to an established group, or had to transition a newcomer into an established group? At what point did you feel like part of the group, or feel like the newcomer was part of the group? Tell us your story!

3. Kinetic took what they perceived to be the ethical "high ground" during the sales tasks, while Arrow's hardball tactics were much more effective. What would you have done?

Later this week: Our interview with Apprentice candidate Derek Arteta, an OHDCC discussion led by TC alum Adam Vane, and a talk by Professor David Buckner on cultural integration in organizations.

As always, thanks for listening!

Warren (and Carl, and Serena, and Whitney)

Episode 9 is available for download!

noreply@blogger.com (POHDCC (and POHDCC: The Apprentice)) — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 05:12:00 +0000

Hi all,

We hope you enjoy listening to Episode 9 as much as we enjoyed recording it!

One correction (among many, I'm sure): I keep talking about the "Dual Factor Model." What I was actually referring to was Pruitt and Rubin's dual concern model, which is a useful tool to identify the various styles that people use when resolving conflicts.

During the episode, we touched on an issue that was highlighted as a result of the conflict between Muna and Kristine-- how do you best accomodate religious beliefs in the workplace? We'd love to get your thoughts and hear about your experiences-- please feel free to leave a comment!
