Temporada 1 Episodio 7 Hablemos del Tiempo - Cómo hablar del clima y las estaciones del año

Je vous invite aujourd'hui à Versailles, la ville de prédilection du roi soleil. Jean de la Fontaine, Molière, Lully, tous peuvent témoigner de la générosité de Louis XIV, tout comme de sa colère ! Cette ville est aujourd'hui une source d'inspiration pour de nombreux artistes : 
- Kamel Ouali et sa comédie musicale, Le Roi soleil 
- Gérard Corbiau et son film, Le Roi danse 
- Le mois Molière, un festival de théâtre et de danse versaillais 
C'est aussi un haut lieu diplomatique. Emmanuel Macron a jeté son dévolu sur la galerie des batailles du château pour recevoir le président russe, Vladimir Poutine en 2017. 
Enfin, Versailles est souvent associé à la bourgeoisie française, j'ai donc profité de cette opportunité pour vous partager l'art de la table à la française, bon appétit ! 
Plats français de l'épisode :
- Côtes de Nuits Village du Domaine Petitot, le vin préféré du roi soleil
- La fleur bleue, le fromage de la ferme de la Tremblaye
- Potage aux cailles et aux petits pois

〈#5〉天気が悪い日に降るおかしは？

The Power of Storytelling in Leading Change emphasizes the role of storytelling in driving organizational change. Leaders often face the need for significant shifts within their organizations, from cultural to product-related changes. To unite their teams behind a new direction, they must craft a clear, compelling narrative.

Storytelling is a potent tool for inspiring action and connecting with people on a deeper level. It helps articulate the ‘why’ and ‘what’ of change, making the abstract tangible and the future vivid.

The article presents a four-step approach to effective storytelling in leadership:

Deep Understanding, Simple Description: Leaders must deeply understand the change to communicate it simply. John Legere’s transformation of T-Mobile into an “un-carrier” is a prime example of conveying a complex change with a single, powerful word.
Honoring the Past: Leaders should acknowledge the organization’s strengths and history, showing respect for the past while guiding towards the future. This builds trust and eases the transition for those resistant to change.
Articulate a Persuasive Mandate for Change: Leaders need to present a clear vision that motivates and aligns with the organization’s values, addressing both the positive and negative aspects of the past.
Lay Out a Rigorous and Optimistic Path Forward: The narrative should be action-oriented, providing a clear roadmap for change while maintaining an optimistic outlook.
In summary, leaders must master storytelling to effectively lead change, balancing respect for the past with a clear vision for the future. By doing so, they can capture the hearts and minds of their employees, fostering a culture of optimism and honesty.

You may sometimes notice people at airports wearing a green lanyard with sunflowers on it. This is usually worn by people who have a hidden disability — disabilities that can't always be seen from the outside, such as learning difficulties or autism.

But soon, you might start noticing the Sunflower lanyard somewhere new: Lego pieces.

The toy company announced on December 3 — International Day of Persons with Disabilities — that it has partnered with Hidden Disabilities Sunflower, the UK company that first created the lanyards in 2016.

Lego is releasing three sets featuring the lanyard: one for its Duplo toys, which are for kids under the age of 8; an airport set for older children; and a set with over 3,000 pieces for adults. The sets will go on sale between January and June 2025.

People will also be able to add the Sunflower lanyard when customizing their own Lego pieces at official Lego stores in parts of Europe and North America.

The Lego Group said it's proud to have created what it calls "the world's first toys to feature the official Sunflower lanyard," and hopes the sets will promote inclusion for people of different ages and with different disabilities.

On Lego's website, Martin Moxness, an adult Sunflower lanyard user, said seeing the lanyard on Lego pieces will help normalize hidden disabilities.

"As a child, this would have been life-changing and would have made me feel seen and accepted," he added.

According to the World Health Organization, one in six people around the world lives with some form of disability, many of them hidden. Disability inclusion is an important part of achieving health for all, it said.

Over 280 airports around the world now recognize the Sunflower lanyard, Hidden Disabilities said.
