    Episode 233 - Becoming the Indispensable Employee - with Barry Bradham
    2026/05/04

    For the past two weeks, we've been talking about navigating the job application cycle. This week we continue our encouragement of employees by learning a key point: How can we become an indispensable employee? Hello everyone and welcome to episode 233 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we're joined by long-time entrepreneur Barry Bradham. Barry tells us that in order to be a more resilient employee, we need to be curious, demonstrate value, and to think like a business owner. He adds that it's important that we understand what we're good at, and where we add the most value. But more importantly, the people around you must also understand that. He says, when they do - they will want you around them. The goal: To replace chaos with structure. Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey! We sure do appreciate it!

    Episode 232 - Why is Looking for Work Like the Hunger Games? - Part 2 with Jason Hoss & Sean Watson
    2026/04/27

    This is part 2 of why looking for a job is like the Hunger Games. In this episode we talk about the value of relationships, warnings of using the "Open for Work" label on LinkedIn, and a reminder that not all recruiters are created equal. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 232 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! Picking up on where we left off last week, Jason Hoss gives his opinion on whether part of the problem is related to the hiring managers not knowing enough about resilience to setup appropriate job descriptions. Sean Watson explains that when we work through recruiters, the results can be more favorable, because it's all built on existing relationships. Looking for work is like the Hunger Games. There is one survivor, you don't know the rules until the game starts, and you get eliminated without knowing why. . Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey! We sure do appreciate it!

    2026/04/20

    This week we are joined by a recruiter and a job applicant. One says the recruiting system is broken. The other says finding a job is like the Hunger Games. A lot people participate, but only one survives. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 231 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! Over the next two weeks we're going to talk to Sean Watson (the go-to recruiter of the Resilient Journey) and friend of the podcast Jason Hoss. Jason shares his story of how he applied for 111 jobs over 15 months. Despite being deeply qualified, he was rejected 60% of the time and ghosted the other 40%. Sean says that this is a common problem and explains that some of the jobs that Jason applied for probably weren't even real. Application Tracking Systems, keywords, rejection. Our guests agree, it's a global problem. Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey! We sure do appreciate it! Check out the Resilient Journey Hub! Want to learn more about Mark?

  • Episode 230 - Communications Silence During a Crisis - with Keith Erwood

    Episode 230 - Communications Silence During a Crisis - with Keith Erwood
    2026/04/13

    We all understand how important communication is during a crisis. But this week's guest says that during high profile building evacuations, there is a time when communications silence is the proper protocol. But that doesn't mean we don't communicate. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 230 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we are joined by former NY City EMS, turned resilience professional Keith Erwood. Keith and Mark take a couple of minutes to circle back to our recent conversation about blast radius. Keith explains that to him, the term literally refers to damage caused by an explosion. And that leads Keith to the topic of communications silence during an evacuation. He says that silence doesn't mean we don't communicate during the crisis, it means that our phones can't be used to detonate a device. Keith says while this is counter-intuitive and encounters pushback, radio silence is essential. Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey! We sure do appreciate it! Check out the Resilient Journey Hub!

    Mark recently posted a poll on LinkedIn, asking if people use the phrase "blast radius". Some of you said yes, you use it, but most said no. And others expressed concern about the phrase itself. Let's dig into it.

    Hello everyone and welcome to episode 228 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group!

    2026/03/23

    If you are a risk, resilience or crisis management professional, you might think that the most important thing you can focus on in 2026 is AI. But this week's guest says there is something far more important. She says, we need to be focusing on our stakeholders.

    Hello everyone and welcome to episode 227 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we are joined by Stephanie Craig, owner, President and CEO of Kith - a Crisis Communications Firm. Stephanie and Mark talk about the importance of understanding not only WHO our stakeholders are, but having a deep understanding of what's important to them. Stephanie explains that the company owns the brand, but your stakeholders own your reputation. And, your reputation is what people are saying about you when you're not in the room. Mark reminds us that we as risk, resilience and crisis management professionals also have an individual brand, and we all have stakeholders that we need to focus on.

    Episode 226 - The Next 15 Words on AI, with Sarah Mohrle
    2026/03/16

    They say the first ten words in a political debate can kill you. They are the tip of the spear. But it's the next 10-15 words that really matter, because they tell you HOW we're going to get things done. These are the next 15 words on AI. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 226 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we are joined by Sarah Mohrle, an AI expert who has been in the software engineering world for 25 years. Sarah tells Mark that too many companies are going about AI deployment in the wrong way. They are looking at the tools they want to use BEFORE looking at the business problem they're trying to solve. She talks about the importance of the quality of our data and what tools are ethical. The bottom line for Sarah, and for us as resilience professionals, is to make sure our executives walk into the debate fully prepared. Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey!
