Description: Nobody is perfect. Perfection in your ethical character is a myth but you can always improve. Owning your mistakes is difficult but it helps you be a better person than you were yesterday.

3 Value Bombs:
- Shift your attention from always trying to protect yourself and think about what you can do to protect others by getting better.
- I'm setting a high standard for myself that I'm going to always try to do better and learn from my mistakes.
- I think that with organizations right now, it's like the house is on fire, but we're just trying to put the fire out and figure out where the fire started and why it keeps burning.
Show Highlights:
Can you tell us a bit about the journey from the idea phase to the actual published book. What was that like?

- Yeah, well, you know, I think I'm just a big book fan like fangirl authors and books ever since I was a little girl. So it's always been a dream to contribute to the world of books in some way. But as researchers, as you know, we publish in peer reviewed journals, and we do work that other scholars can consume and build on and create sort of additional knowledge based on what the work we do is incremental

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
