"Com. 703-815-5700. This is WTO P news. Ten 53, the band director of Largo high school has been arrested amid allegations that he sexually assaulted a student, WTO's Michelle Murillo with that. The victim told prince George's county police 44 year old Lonnie Elias junior assaulted her when she was his student from 2015 to 2017, following the allegations Elias junior was put on administrative duty by the school where he had worked since 2007. When the state's attorney's office presented the case to a grand jury earlier this week, they indicted Elias junior for sex abuse of a minor and other related charges. He was arrested in upper Marlboro today. Michelle Morello, WTO news. There's an unidentified bug going around at Stafford high school, a county spokesperson tells WTO about a thousand students were absent today because of flu like gastrointestinal symptoms. That's half the kids who go there. All school activities and sports have been canceled through Sunday, and then they'll reassess conditions on Monday. The school also says it's working with the county health department to get to the bottom of what is causing all of these students to get sick. Several local school districts are still looking for teachers as WTO's Kate Ryan reports an aggressive recruitment drive in Alexandria worked, but not well enough. According to Margaret Brown, who's in charge of staff recruitment for Alexandria city public schools, there are 43 teacher vacancies 34 open slots for instructional assistance and 13 bus driver jobs are still open, but she said her department found starting recruitment efforts early, helped head off larger vacancy rates. It allowed us to grab great candidates before a neighboring school districts whom we had them sign offers in contracts in April May and June, and meant we beat those other districts to the punch. But challenges remain. There is continued concern about COVID, especially among substitute candidates, and there are lower numbers of people enrolled in teacher prep programs at colleges and universities.

"A narrow set of gun safety measures but will it make from agreement to law We'll be hearing from our North America correspondent in just a moment but first the reaction of Lonnie Phillips whose daughter was killed in the aurora theater shooting in Colorado almost ten years ago Is this initial agreement a step in the right direction The fact that it's taken 30 years to get anything even being talked about and that understand these are just discussions This is not going to be what the final comes out of these discussions So I would be very surprised if anything of any substance gets passed so I'm very pessimistic about this being a step in the right direction I can also tell you that definitely is to have them even talking about it is a step in the right direction The BBC's David Willis joins us live now from Los Angeles David what are the new proposals Order this is significant and assuming that these measures pass into law they would constitute in fact the first gun control at legislation that this country has seen in decades the proposals themselves though to directly answer your question are modest they would see tighter background checks for gun sales involving purchases under the age of 21 federal funding for tougher school security measures increased investment in such things as mental health and suicide prevention programs And the expansion of so called red flag laws which are designed to keep weapons out of the hands of people deemed a risk to themselves or others They do not however include the sort of measures which President Biden and many other senior Democrats have called for particularly of course a ban on the sale of semi-automatic assault weapons or an increase in the minimum age for purchasing them So we've just heard mister Phillips saying that he's not holding his breath Is he right to be pessimistic I think crucial to this though is the fact that among the 20 lawmakers that have signed up to these proposals are ten Republican senators Now that's sufficient to get these measures through the upper house and to avoid what's known as the Senate supermajority rule or the filibuster So that's why President Biden has welcomed news of this agreement albeit whilst lamenting that it doesn't go quite as far as he would like to see He has nonetheless called it an important step in the right direction And indeed some gun control advocates of also welcomed these proposals Very briefly what will happen next Well it will now be up to the crafting of legislation and there is a fairly short window for that because the Senate is due to go into recess in two weeks time ahead of the Independence Day holiday So in order to maintain the momentum that's been attached to all this it still needs to be quite a lot of work done They don't want to let them momentum drop because that would imperil these potentially historic gun control measures Historic because it would be a victory for President Biden right A victory for President Biden ahead of the midterm elections and a victory I think as far as these bipartisan senators agree anyway the American people in general because they said in their statement families are scared it's our duty to come together and get something done that will help restore their sense of safety and security Thank you very much That's the BBC's David Willis who is joining us live from Los Angeles Now David hogg is the cofounder of March for our lives and he was one of the organizers of Saturday's nationwide protests You may have heard him addressing the crowds he is also a survivor of the mass shooting at a school in Parkland Florida What does he make of the political deal on gun control It's a great first step but that's just what it is It's just the first step The issue of gun violence in the United States is unfortunately quite pervasive And no single policy is going to stop every shooting but this policy could stop the next Parkland And that's a good step So what is it in this particular deal that you are happy about and what do you think is still missing I'm happy that we have bipartisan consensus on literally anything that is substantial and not just a talking point You know there's a lot of funding in this bill From the things that I've heard around mental health which will be a big help at stopping the two thirds of gun deaths that are suicides And on top of that I think that this bill also does a good job of addressing how to some extent you know somebody gets a gun It doesn't raise the age to 21 But it's working to expand the background check process is still a good step The reality is we could choose to say that this isn't enough which I think it's going to take a lot more to totally eradicate advance but I'm not going to let that stop us from stopping you know even just one more shooting So I think this is a good step but that's just what it is is one step out of many more that are needed So if this would be even closer to what you'd like what would you say is missing I think in the future what's missing is just really substantially addressing the system of how people get guns in the United States on the whole I think every state and the United States as a whole should have laws similar to our state of Massachusetts that have some of the most stringent ones in the country What we also need is beyond laws we need cultural change in our country Like with smoking 30 or 40 years ago we need to address how somebody gets a gun like we addressed house somebody to get cigarettes but we also need to address why do they want to pick up a gun or why do they want to smoke in this metaphor And I think that's a longer term thing that we have to focus on But the president that this sets showing that Democrats and Republicans can work together to help advance these things And that this is not a partisan issue This is a moral issue It was a major precedent There's no ban on assault rifles because let's face it they are guns and they are guns and assault rifles Very profoundly part of the problem right Right Of course I would love to see an assault weapons ban But I'm not going to say right now you can't say to me there's this policy that is slightly less than what I would like but it still may be able to prevent one more shooting or one more part fund or one more sandy hook from happening But it doesn't vanish all weapons And I can't just say you know what screw it We're not going to work with this We're not going to do this We have to do all that we can to stop the bleed right now even if it's a small thing Do you feel that it's different this time that you know people really are concentrating minds And they may very well be more substantial changes or that this particular set of proposals will make it through Nothing is guaranteed right now obviously What makes this time different is we're seeing bipartisan consensus not among senators as much as Americans you know Republicans were marching with us yesterday Gun owners were watching with us yesterday hand in hand with Democrats young people old people and people that don't even own guns You know because our politicians like to say and think that we're our country is divided I don't think our country is that divided in comparison to our Senate It's our Senate that is divided It's a hundred senators on Capitol Hill that are divided Because Americans agree we need action to stop our kids from dying And we've tried the solutions that many Republicans have brought up of putting more guns in schools And they failed They failed in Parkland They failed in Texas and they're going to continue to fail.

The Grim Sleeper Serial Killer
"From at least as early as nineteen eighty five to at least as recently as two thousand seven a serial killer lonnie david franklin junior eventually dubbed the grim sleeper roam the streets of south central los angeles where he was born and raised targeting young and particularly vulnerable. Women this killer kidnapped raped beat typically shot his victims with a small twenty five caliber semiautomatic pistol often carried in his shirt pocket. He obsessively took photos of his victims. Both dead and alive both clothed and nude often sexually explicit positions saving them as trophies and keeping them carefully tucked away in the garage behind his home where he worked his youngest victim just fifteen years old not apprehended until two thousand ten. The grim sleeper roam the streets of south central for a quarter of a century incredible. He got away considering how careless he was this murders rather than carefully hiding the remains of victims in some heavily wooded body disposal site. He typically just toss him out of his old pinto an into some urban alley. The bodies are often discovered the next morning after he killed him and he almost always shot his victims. Water were still sitting inside his car. He left so much evidence he took photos of the victim shared them with any of his friends who wanted to see him not the best way to not get caught but no one tipped police off to him and he wasn't caught for so so long. Why how nhi no human involved and h. I was a term thrown around by some lapd officers originally investigating the murders in the mid eighties when the killings began and it was used because the victims were often sex workers or all assumed to be turning tricks on side at least an all or at least nearly all of them addicted to crack cocaine and there were black. The term crackhead was thrown around a lot and hooker. It was like the victims weren't seen as humans reviewed less than human. They were black. Crackhead hookers so who cares. Nhi no human involved so no real investigative priority given but this is not going to be some lapd blame game some apathy from the lapd only partially explains why lonnie was able to keep killing for so long.

"That will allow people to stay supportive. But i do think that we have to recognize that. Historically it's always evan flow And going to be great excitement. And then that excitement begins to get tamp down. i hope that with the conversations the president And the vice president of the having even a debates around sixteen nineteen will keep these issues at the forefront and will continue to get people to be engaged so that they see this for me as their story not somebody else's story. Now you say. Evan flow in. That reminds me of something that i always have to keep. Remind myself in that is history is not linear she not at all and when it's funny when i we created the african american museum. If you when you go in you got to walk up ramps. The goal was the rams would go forward and back forward and back to say. History is not linear That there are going to be moments of great boost forward. And then there's going to be a backlash or there's going to be steps back and so i think for me that notion of the fact that it's not a linear marched progress but that what it is is it is a long term struggle that is going to have moments of victory moments of resiliency and moments of defeat and pain a that's the way change occurs in this country. What makes you proudest of the african american story. I always have a picture in my office. That i've had for twenty years and it's a woman who was just free formerly enslaved woman. Who's very short. She's carrying a ho. That has taller than she is. She's got a heavy basket Her dresses tattered. Her knuckles are swollen from work but her head is up and she stepping forward to me. That's what i'm proudest. That here is a community that believed in america didn't believe in them. Here's a community that said we are going to help a country define what citizenship is with. Freedom is what quality is not just for black people but for all people so in a way. I'm proudest of that. Strength of this community and their commitment to sort of being the beacon of possibility when it comes to helping america live up to its stated ideals. So i take that picture and i say to myself every day when i'm tired. I'm really disgusted with budgets. Or whatever i look at that woman. Say her head is up. She took a step forward. I can't quit now and.

"And that. I think what's important is that even though when i was a kid. We thought the president and the vice president sort of walked on water in those days are gone for what we still do is. We look to their leadership. They give us the opportunity to sort of think about things in a different way. They legitimize some issues and the fact that they are both talking. So clearly so candidly around issues of race is all for the good Because that'll mean that they'll be other people who will ask questions about raise or who embrace this history and it also means that it will stimulate. The kind of debates and candidly cultural wars. Have to happen if the country is going to really embrace. It's tortured racial history. So i am. i applaud. what they do. I'm in awe of what they do. Because for me it was nothing more valuable than knowledge the knowing your accurate history and i think that what they're doing is suggesting how important it is for americans to embrace all of their history to understand how we're all shaped by that and so i think that's all for the good it does mean that is going to stimulate obviously the counter back whereas see with sixteen nineteen etc. You mentioned earlier. The black lives matter protests and one of the things that was sort of startling to a lot of us was that it wasn't just us meaning black people in the streets protesting. There were a lot of white americans who took to the streets with justice much Determination and an anger and support for all sorts of things were through the roof but as time went along that support slowly waned. How is it possible to maintain that level of interest of support when there's so many forces out there just pushing hard to pull people the other way. I think that we can look back at history and see that. They're the evan flow that there are moments like with say the nineteen sixties when you suddenly saw this sort of desire among many americans to be more transformative around issues of race but what happens dan. Is you have richard nixon coming out for law and order law and order a code word is control these out of control black people and so what you see is people moving away. I think there are a couple of things that hit me about what you just said one is that i still think they're larger numbers of people who aren't of color. Who are still engaged with this. I mean i'm struck by what i still see in the streets of powers or in berlin Around the world of people saying this is still an important issue. I'm also struck that there's a younger cohort of non african americans who see this as not an ancillary story but as the story of who they are and that's for the good. I think the challenge is that part of how you build. Long-term support is to have concrete milestones. One of the challenges of this is to really say what are the goals not the goals what what are the concrete products. Black lives matter What are the things that. What is the agenda of change. So i think that part of it is you have people who are still very supportive but not sure what the next steps are not sure how to build on anger Build on the excitement of protests. So i think that's one of the challenges is to sort of define and agenda. We talk about defunding police. But what's the agenda the overall gender. That's going to lead to change..

Can we do the same and There's this this key low key lines in there that i would love to get your reaction to she writes. The united states does not yet have the stomach to look over his shoulder and stare directly at the evil on which this country stands. We have not had that unflinching assessment and we are long overdue. I mean this gets to what we've been talking about from the very beginning of this conversation but expand on on what michelle's talking about and also why it is actually not just important but useful to look at what germany has done in terms of reckoning with. It's even more recent past. Well you know a first of all. I love michelle We talked about this article. She's so good with it. Because i it really does. Illuminate the darkest corner of america to say that in essence. There's a history here that is too important to ignore And that as americans I've always argued for example. The civil war that you know the south lost the war but they wanna piece and in some ways what michelle is arguing is that we have never really looked like germany at the darkest moments of our history and the difference is of course germany loses a war and is both penalized for that and then the german people recognize that they cannot be who they once were and the only way they can be the different. Germany is by embracing and understanding. The holocaust. never done that. We've never done that. We are now because of scholarship from john. Hope franklin today. We now have more information. More people We have more facts. But the reality is that as you're seeing over the fight over sixteen nineteen People are not. There are significant number of people who are not willing to say let us understand the true history of the country. Not the miss not what we hope to be what we really are and only by exploring that. Can we really become the nation. We want to be reading. Michelle's piece i ca- she goes way into what germany has done the way they publicly recognize their history and it reminded me of the one and only time i went to berlin which by now is almost ten years ago and just having an afternoon to walk around and not having done any. I like going to cities and not having done any prior researched but just throw drop in and walk around and it just blew my mind. Just how in your face in berlin. In germany they put their history the the evil parts of their history in your faces from the little Brass markers in front of in front of the old homes where german jews were taken away and sent to concentration camps. That's one small gesture but the largest gesture is right there in the middle of the city. The i'm going to get the museum name wrong. But it's i think it's the national memorial memorial to the murdered jews of europe. I mean just in your face no sugar coating just know..

"All of our history that by trying to deny your also denying part of who you are regardless of race. That reminds me of something you told me when you came to the podcast at the very beginning. Back in twenty sixteen. You said And i'm paraphrasing here. Slavery is american. History it's something that black americans care about. It is also something that white americans should care about. Because it's their history to exactly. I mean when you look at slavery on the one hand slavery is a predominant black story right. it's a story of family separation. But a story of resiliency it's a story of defining what freedom really means not just for african-americans but for all americans but on the other hand what slavery is. It's the engine of america right. It was the economic engine that led to the industrial revolution It really was the fact that america was built on the backs of the so. What i want people to recognize is that slavery may formally have ended in eighteen sixty five but its impact continues to this very day and that we're all shaped by and so i think that even if somebody says well. My family moved here twenty years ago. You're shaped by the legacy of slavery. And so what. I hope people will do is rather than say we can't talk about that. I think that isn't the key for education to find understanding to find hope to find a shared future. That's why i worry about people not discussing these issues because we can't find that shared future unless we do you know one of the things that's coming up is juneteenth talk about talk about slavery but but juneteenth june nineteenth helped me out a professor eight hundred eight hundred sixty five sixty five talk about juneteenth and the importance of that holiday. You know what i find fascinating is as a kid. I never heard of june teeth even as he's either When i moved to california always people talking about june. Tina's what is this but what. I realized the several things is first of all you know. Is you know juneteenth is the moment that word of the emancipation. Proclamation reaches parts of the enslaved texas and what that really has become from for texans initially and then now nationally is a celebration of freedom not a recognition of slavery but a celebration of freedom. And i think that for me. What isn't so powerful as a juneteenth is now something that millions more people know about and that it really is in some ways. It's replacing what was really a very powerful moment in the african american community after slavery really into maybe to world war one. The most important day was really january. First right when the emancipation proclamation was was went into effect and african americans around the nation would have marches on that day right. They'd have the watch night in and the marches but that faded away so now with june teases it's allowing us one as a community to embrace freedom to until to understand slavery but more importantly i would argue. It's an opportunity for you to rethink.

"Under rebuild this community and that's that's a very powerful thing but it also tells you by looking at the murder of george. Floyd i mean this long history of a taylor emmett till it tells you about the fragility of black life and the fragility of freedom and so the challenge for me is to help people understand that. We've got to counter that for jody we've got to try to give a bulwark to protect. Not just the african american community but to help america live up to what it says. It is so for me. It's a two sided coin Bring history to help. People understand this community and its role in america but also bring history to help people. Say that if america's going to be the place we say we are in our founding documents if we're going to be the place that lincoln calls are more perfect union on we're gonna be that's great society of lyndon johnson. Then we have to confront these most notions and not just say oh. Isn't that a shame. But say how do we affect positive and fundamental change one of the ways to counter that fragility you were talking about Prime example of that is the sixteen nineteen project. And i remember being on martha's vineyard when it dropped and everybody was a buzz. A buzz about this about this thing. This enormous undertaking. And i sat and read through as much as i could in a day especially nicole hannah jones opening essay which was just phenomenal. And yet here. We are two years later and there are states like oklahoma that are banning it being taught in schools. People are calling it ideology and saying that it is wrong to even present this history. You're the historian. What what's your view of the sixty nineteen project but also the people who are who are gunning for it to undermine its legitimacy you know the sixteen nineteen project is imperfect but what historical zam nation is perfect right. I mean that's of history that evolves over time but what sixteen nineteen does is it says in a fundamental way. You can't understand america without understanding race. You can't understand this nation without grappling with slavery and it's continuing impact that to me is unbelievably powerful and so important. It is also unbelievably frightening. Because what you see are people taking that to say What we're saying is that america's a horrible place that it's only driven by racism that racial violence is the only thing that is shaped this country. And what sixteen. Nineteen project is saying. Is that if you want to understand our notions of freedom. If you want to understand what. America says it is. You've got to look at it through the lens of race to see where america hasn't lived up to its stated ideals. My concern is that there always been a long history. In america where people have tried to tamp down education whether was mccarthyism And so my fear is that i wanna make sure that we're a nation that embraces all the challenges of our pairs and really uses education for what it is which is a mean to to broaden our thinking to challenge who we are to help us become a better nation rather than simply say their stories. We can't tell and for me. I've always felt that my job as a historian. My job as an educator is not to point fingers and say you're guilty but to help you understand how this history is.

How has it been the transition ben from a museum director to the leader of a national if not global institution. I think first of all you realize you've got to be true to yourself. So i'm a historian so i bring that sort of vision to this and candidly. Because i had worked at air and space museum american history and then being a museum director. I really had a good sense of how the smithsonian work so. The transition was not as difficult to sort of saying. Let me learn this new institution but what it was is recognizing that my job is to make it easier for the museum. Directors for the research centers to do the work they want to do and to try to create a way that there is a vision that says here is how the smithsonian serves the american public. You mentioned you are his historian. I historian to be the leader of the smithsonian. Why do you think that is why. I think that the smithsonian has always been a place that's been driven first and foremost by science.

Yes, Capitol Rioters Were Armed. Here Are The Weapons They Used
"Of the people who attacked the U. S Capitol in January six. Syria's of videos on the FBI website shows the mob punching and beating officers. It also shows rioters using what appear to be batons and baseball bats and dousing some police with chemical sprays. Still, some have falsely claimed that the capital riders were not really armed. That day. NPR investigative correspondent Tom Dreisbach reports on why that's just not true. Not long after the Capitol riot, Republican Senator Ron Johnson said this the fact the matter is this didn't seem isn't like an armed insurrection to me. When you hear arm don't stick up firearms, it's become a popular narrative that the capital riot was not really armed. It's also misleading. First, Let's talk about guns. It is true that the only gun fired on January 6th was by law enforcement who killed writer Ashley Babbitt. But the Justice Department has brought gun charges against at least three people connected to the violence of the capital. Those three are not alleged to have breached the building. One of those defendants, Lonnie Kaufman, allegedly parked his truck near the capital filled with what a federal judge called a small armory authorities seizing from Kaufman's truck, multiple firearms, a crossbow. And a cooler containing particularly lethal homemade Molotov cocktails. Prosecutors have also cited evidence from Facebook posts and witness statements that other writers brought guns on the Capitol grounds, too. Capitol Police estimate around 800 people breached the building. But the vast majority were not arrested or searched at the time, so we just don't know exactly how many might have been carrying guns. But the other weapons people were armed with Those were plainly visible from the footage that day. investigators say there were batons, fire extinguishers, baseball bats, clubs, at least one stun gun. As well as pepper spray. Those weapons are often classified as less lethal. But police expert Lorenzo Boyd says they can still be deadly. What we do know is there were a lot of other weapons that could be lethal weapons as applied, officials say more than 100 officers were injured on January 6th entry, suffering gouged eyes, concussions and damage spinal discs. Capitol Police officer Brian Sick. Nick was allegedly sprayed by two writers with an unidentified chemical and died the following day. Authorities still have not identified his exact cause of death. NPR has been tracking every single criminal case related to the capital riots. Now more than 300 of those cases, we've identified nearly 40 that reference, a suspect wielding some sort of weapon. This was a pretty heavily armed crew of people compared to what you usually see it protests that tidy Pyrrhic, co founder of the global project on Hate and extremism. She's followed extremist groups for decades. Even when you see people who are armed it protests and states, for example, where they have open carry laws. They aren't storming into a building using the weapons in the way that we saw at the Capitol. What's clear is that given the weaponry seen on January, 6th things could have been a lot worse but by Rick is concerned that efforts to downplay the violence are less about the fax. About politics. There's a reluctance on the part of some in conservative circles to accept that domestic terrorism is largely coming from right wing extremist groups and to actually confront violent extremism in this country, she says. We have to be clear about just how dangerous it can be. Tom Dreisbach. NPR news

Facing Pressure, Biden Administration Scrambles to Shelter Migrant Children
"By the administration scramble to shelter migrant Children. This is in the New York Times this morning, and in fact, the border crisis is real. It is metastasizing it is getting larger every day. Facility don't exist. It's worse than it was under Donald Trump at any time because Joe Biden and his team want illegal immigration, they do not want it to stop. They wanted to continue. And that is because they're making a calculation. I heard it yesterday and my long seminar for Stanford Students with Ron Brownstein, Ashley Parker, Lonnie Chan, Ron Kane and Ben Ginsberg. Democrats do not want to close the border. It's a long game. I think they've made a mistake. It turns out in Florida that the refugees of violence and the refugees of socialism turn into pretty good Republican voters. So that doesn't worry me. The fate of these Children worries me. The fate of these young adults worries me the fate of America's reputation in the world because there is no way we can do other than Release people were going to be so we're gonna be overwhelmed because you need to build the wall and you have to keep people in Mexico and then they stop coming.

"You know every company has operational plans in processes to follow that's important for consistency standpoint. But in the world we live in today. There's so much variation. Some change in personalization has become a really big thing in customer experience. Today if you're not empowering front lines to be authentic into be adaptive truth to be human right yet to be to go off script so speak. Be human at the moment of truth than than you're gonna you're gonna mess up and we see these experiences and and i think if you if you think about empowerment today more if you don't empower the employees in the front lines the customers empowered. The customer can go anywhere now just like you did your power to tell the whole world your experience powering your front lines in the customers in power. It just doesn't match up you kind of have to match it up then noticing a trend in in that as well where we read in the paper seeing in the news and you know digital tide of that customer experience is going going wrong and typically when they do because they're not empowered to do something and they're sticking notes to something of rain walk framework or they don't have the culture of autonomy and you know there's a lot to it but at the end of the day if you can just stay human as you talked about to do the right thing. Then that's going to go along wet so we talked about a couple of transit. You've mentioned kind of predictive analysis Has been on the rise of the seaway Growth in in video. What what are some of the other transit is in nc as well. You're saying the matchup of all kinds of data sets and sources bringing that data to life in the most elegant ways like never before and You've got companies that are working hard on that you've got artificial intelligence. Which is a hot topic to talk about the topic. You're talking to him. How that plays in the customer experience voice recognition. You know what used to be terrorists nagging better in you know. You almost don't even know who you're speaking sometimes. Yeah what was your thoughts on that. They didn't see the google obstacle. Google actually made a phone call it completely like a human essentially trips has gone into believing that they took into a real person things. Yeah they are. And you know. I i think i really did. I know there's a lot of people that scares When you can deploy technology in the right space to become more efficient in to create a better experience right if consumer is actually saying it's a better experience and you've got something that length right. And so i believe technologies beautiful thing but at the end of the day. We're actually using technology to record this but you face to face right so that that face to face thing always be a component and just come back from and if i may video. Video is one of the greatest ways to do that. If you're not face to face videos the best next best way to communicate that so the trans you know you're seeing All kinds of things from that standpoint and customer journey mapping is still hot and work with a number of organizations that have really never done the customer journey map in talking about moments and truth and so that tends to continue to be a hot item. i was with a company this morning talking about reputation management if we manage reputation management. There's so many sources. Now where reputation is out you know in the world and the cloud if you will and how our able to look at that and make decisions based on that or respond to react to it is the ultimate power really is with the customer and they have all those tools so we all keep our technology or tools. More important human connection speed. We're gonna lose more seeing brands so if we think the battle to be. The leader in a failed is is going to be done. The predominantly based on customer experience. Not going to be key drive. Guess what would be your one takeaway piece of advice to people watching this video about the things they can do to improve and cash to it. Down to one piece is tough and i. It's easy for me to come back and say you got into a relentlessly focused on your culture but the customer sadder out. But i think there's a couple of things if i may i would say about that. The trend and all the data in the world of data coming together down telling something the action of that data doing something with that data being african actually responding to his heat. And so i would say that i. And then secondly it is a relentless focus on the customer putting the customer at the center of everything you do again. It's to customers for me. It's the internal custody employees. You have to focus on them and create an environment for them where they can disrupt in become yard of the possible in the ultimate customer in this brand has talked about a lot and they have all kinds of data data sets and great leaders and everything else that the one thing they do i think with a relentless and maniacal focus they focus on the customer that's amazon you know and there are companies and brands. That are comes up in every conversation. If you look at that organization what they built the customer's always been the most important thing to now. That doesn't mean everything they do. Impacts the customer positively but they come to every meeting with that customer sitting right at the center of the table. Absolutely well lie. It's been fantastic to talk to you. Thanks for joining us here today as it's To see you get a bit. You got likely say thank you thanks.

A company ritchie's living house nova Yeah to richest living focuses on standing out to the positive and how one works with an organization from the services you provide to the products that you build and extends into how lives their lack of becomes kind of cyclical Leadership and culture customer experience. Model that we deploy and put in the center of businesses to help them really become the best version of themselves. Fantastic fantastic and hats test itself. Yeah will spent the first eighteen years of my career in corporate america and during that time we were doing lots of mergers and acquisitions and bringing companies together whenever you do that. You're bringing people together different cultures together and so it was a way to bring those cultures together in a way that they could connect up from a performance standpoint so we wanted to keep the human spirit alive and we wanted to keep the focus on the customer experience alive so that started way back then and pulled it into the technology world in some of this is the way that we want to stand out and behalf of our customers so we hired people that truly care about the customer experience both the internal employees as well as the external customers and had a desire to stand out in everything they difference customers and we technology companies so we wanted to to take this loss of fee of red shoes and put it into the technology so technology stood out. We used it with the teams in terms of the services provided customers. Said we want to stand out. I compare shoes for customers so it became kind of that the language we used in every single meeting if we were making changes to the platform if we were making changes to the way we serve customers say is that red shoes stand out for the positive so it became part of our culture and it was a higher standard that we felt we needed to use to compete in the open market and ultimately give the best service and product customers. What does the meal. i guess Over the course of your career. What some of the best ways you've seen it to drive change driving changes difficult. Yeah it for me. And it's where i spend most of my time. It's working with leadership you know it really starts there and and again i consider data. It's very positive but sometimes it can be knowing right. It's there's so much noise it paralyzes people so in my opinion and you know to to use the red shoes term when you hire issues individual these are people that drive change and you know egos cutting out the door. Titles mouth door and the customer at the center and say look. If the data's telling this is what we should do trust the data more importantly act on the data. So you really is backed culture. You have to create a culture. Where people can you know happy autonomy to do the right thing. And sometimes that's blowing up the infrastructure within an organization saying but you know the lowest level of the organization or on the front lines you. Have you know all out our rural tomato key decisions. You know there's organizations that empower their employees and behalf of the customer to to drive change. Yeah and then. David your. ceo. I'm seeing ceo's now. That really are focused on the customer. Experience is talking about it. There are actually doing it. I you know large retail organization where the ceo is actually visiting stores talking with customers. And that's not data. That's that's face to face right doing that. And so There's there's a significant change. It's no longer something that kind of stuff. There is a real key driver. And if i may say this to for investors you know people are starting to look at the customer experience. If somebody's going to invest in the company they wanna customers sports pie obviously a lot of the x. historically has been about measurement and it's been about schools. How did you feel that that translates moving from these have been very school metric. Focus to you're providing experiences in motion connection with people have experiences and browns. yes it. it's a great question day than what i saw. Inside of our customer experience technology company. That iran was we had lots of metrics lots of data in our customers were using the data and analyzing the data but sometimes they were losing sight of why we were using the data. It was acting on the data in a way that impacted the customer. And it's still a trend that i see. There's so much data out there today. Customer data digital dates coming from every location. You know if you bringing that in some type of a technology platform and it's telling you to do something you actually have to do something with it. Quick story. I remember being with a client years ago. We had all the executives in the room. And we're looking at the data and we are looking at the analytics. We're talking about key drivers in terms of what are the areas that we need to focus on. You know to to increase our customer satisfaction. Scores and one of the key drivers was friendliness. And we talked about that. I remember one of the executives that want to make. Sure i get this straight. You're telling us the data is saying that if we're more friendly environments that will drive the customer satisfaction score more than anything so it's connecting with human beings and i said that's right. That's what the data date say the individual set. I'm having a hard time. Understanding how friendliness is important to the customer and the minute the individuals said at everybody just kinda paused and looked at each other like we really just lose sight of the fact that friendly connecting customers is not important. So you know. I think that when people are recognizing now is use the data. Assemble the data bringing together. If it's telling you to do something in human way. We talked about in power people in front lines and my personal experience story on this song. You you may not seen this Actually had a video that went viral over a couple of days about experience with a lawsuit.

Mark Mason
Key arrests from the Washington, DC riot so far
"He's got the latest today. Michael Welcome back to the show. Thank you so much for having me mark. We're seeing dozens that have been charged already. In the days since a mob of Trump supporters storm the U. S Capitol and disrupted the certification of the 2020 presidential election results Now to be clear some of those folks that were there that broke into the capital Did themselves harm like they were wearing their badges for the place that they're employed by and once their employers found out about it, they fired those folks. But the Justice Department officials are also saying they've been able to with the help of the American people. Nab some of the people that are responsible for breaking in. In fact, three of the highest profile accused rioters from last week siege have been arrested in charge like Jake of Anthony. Chance, Lee, You probably don't know the name or the AK. He goes by Jake and jelly. This is the guy who they were calling on some level. The guy who made the list that had makeup and horns and of some form of for blanket on him or something. They're saying he's the Cuban on shaman. That's what he calls himself and as the Cuban on shaman he has been arrested for breaking into the capital, in fact, technically turned himself into the FBI on their office on Thursday after the whole riots went down on Wednesday afternoon. So he turned himself in. He is now facing charges. The guy who's responsible for carrying around Nancy Pelosi's lectern in the capital has been arrested in his facing charges. Adam Christian Johnson eyes also gonna be facing charges here and Richard Barnett. That name may not sound familiar, but you've seen his boots. He was the guy who was sitting in Nancy Pelosi's desk with his feet up on her desk are allegedly stole a piece of mail from her desk to prove that it was him. That was there. He was arrested on Friday in Arkansas and is scheduled to appear in federal court tomorrow and will ultimately be extradited to Washington, D. C and they're not the only ones. I mean, you've got Derrick Evans, who I don't necessarily think this was a smart move but videoed himself breaking into the capital, saying we're in. We're in Derrick Evans is in. So he referred to himself in third person posted it all on his social media posts, and here's the problem. He was a lawmaker in West Virginia's house of delegates. So when he did that, and was brought up on charges federal charges for breaking in, he had to resign from West Virginia's house of delegates on Saturday for doing that, and then, Lastly, Lonnie Kaufman, I don't know how much we're gonna hear about this because He's the guy that 70 year old from Alabama who allegedly brought guns and 11 Mason jar Molotov cocktails to the perp protest in his pickup truck. Now, from what we're hearing, none of those were used, but they were dangerously close. The vehicle is parked dangerously close to the capital. So what kind of charges will be brought for him?
