    Project Hope Responds
    Apr 2 2026
    This podcast focuses primarily on aspects of disasters that impact operations here in
    the United States. In this particular podcast we will cast a bigger view at the
    international operations of one particular NGO providing disaster services around the
    world—that being Project Hope.

    The podcast guest is Arlan Fuller who is currently Project HOPE’s director of
    emergency preparedness and response. He provides overall management of response
    efforts for natural disasters and other emergencies. In his current and previous roles,
    he has engaged with people and communities affected by disaster or conflict in Haiti,
    Lebanon, Kosovo, Sudan, Somalia, Uganda, Bangladesh, Nepal, Indonesia, and
    Thailand.

    previous roles, he has engaged with people and communities affected by disaster or
    conflict in Haiti, Lebanon, Kosovo, Sudan, Somalia, Uganda, Bangladesh, Nepal,
    Indonesia, and Thailand.

    Before Project HOPE, Fuller was the Chief Operating Officer for Conflict Dynamics
    International, a nonprofit organization working on building peace in communities
    affected by conflict and other crises. He also served as Executive Director of the
    François-Xavier Bagnoud Center for Health and Human Rights at Harvard University,
    where he led field studies and policy analysis on health access and adversity in
    settings of disaster, conflict, and social marginalization. Fuller has additional
    experience working on global health and international development issues in the
    Senate and the House of Representatives.

  • Performance Reviews for Dummies

    Performance Reviews for Dummies
    Mar 25 2026
    If you are a leader, manager, or supervisor, it is likely that you are required and responsible for the completion of performance appraisals for your direct reports. I (Eric) must admit that completing appraisals, be they in the US Army or in civilian life, was not my favorite task to accomplish. The podcast gets into some tips, techniques and even some “wording” that you might consider using as you prepare for, write and then deliver performance appraisals for your staff. Trust me, you will learn a thing or two.

    Ken Lloyd, Ph.D., is a management consultant, author, and public speaker who specializes in organizational development, human resources, and management coaching. He is the author of the book, Performance Appraisals & Phrases For Dummies (For Dummies: Learning Made Easy)

    Lloyd taught in the MBA Program at The Anderson School at UCLA, and he has made numerous podcast, radio, and television appearances. He is a member of the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology.

  • Countering Drones in the United States

    Countering Drones in the United States
    Mar 13 2026
    The use of drones for public safety is expanding widely. Unfortunately, the opposite is
    also true. Drones can be used for many nefarious purposes. In Ukraine they are being
    weaponized for war. Drug smugglers are also using them. Other criminal activities can
    be promoted and supported with the use of drones. Today we need systems that can
    be used by the “Good Guys” to counter the “Bad Guys.” This podcast speaks to that
    issue.

    Brett Feddersen serves as Vice President, Strategy and Governmental Affairs, for D-
    Fend Solutions leading the company’s strategy, public policy, and government
    relations efforts and engagements with various government policymakers and
    decision-makers. He also plays a crucial role in identifying key legislative trends,
    managing corporate risks, building coalitions and enhancing D-Fend Solutions'
    influence and reach in counter-drone innovation.

    Feddersen joined the team with extensive senior leadership experience in major
    governmental agencies, including the Federal Aviation Administration, the White
    House’s National Security Council, the Pentagon’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the
    Defense Intelligence Agency, among others.

    Feddersen is a U.S. Army combat veteran and a retired Pennsylvania State Trooper.
    He also serves as Chair of the Security Industry Association’s (SIA) Counter-UAS
    Working Group, where he leads industry collaboration on counter-drone best practices
    and policy development.
