FAU Online MBA Student Takes Home Top Prize

Jazmin Campos-Chiodin stood in the rarefied air on the 12th floor of the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and sensed what a special opportunity she had before her.

Campos-Chiodin, who is enrolled in the Online MBA program in Florida Atlantic University’s College of Business, was part of a select group of students from around the world who had been invited to participate in the XCulture Symposium in Miami, sponsored

by Seminole Gaming/Hard Rock International.

She was one of just 150 students from 43 countries invited to attend the event. Split into 21 teams of seven to eight students each to compete in a Business Consulting Challenge, CamposChiodin and her teammates found themselves in a part of the casino normally reserved for VIPs, where they spent two hours talking with Jim H. Osceola III, a member of the Seminole Tribe of Florida and senior vice president of hospitality for Seminole Gaming.

“It was a once in a lifetime opportunity,” Campos-Chiodin said. “We got to sit with him for two hours in one of their suites and just talk about the company, about his family, about why gaming was the culture in the company. We got all this insider information from the man that helps run this company.”

It was proven to be time well spent. Campos-Chiodin and her teammates were selected as the winning team by the executives from the Seminole Gaming/Hard Rock International and won the challenge.

The competition began last spring when she became involved in X-Culture through an online course she took at FAU on International Business Operations, taught by Daniel Rottig, Ph.D, associate graduate faculty member.

Part of the course is the X-Culture International Student Collaboration Project, which provides each student with an opportunity to work in virtual teams with approximately 5,000 fellow graduate students from more than 40 countries and act as consultants for real multinational corporations working on an international business expansion project throughout the academic term.

“Each of my Online MBA students worked in a separate team with

www.bocaratontribune.com

peers from around the world on a different international business challenge,” Rottig explained. “This innovative project therefore engaged my students beyond traditional online course activities and had considerable impact.”

Campos-Chiodin was selected as one of the top 50 students (representing 22 countries) this academic year and invited to attend the annual 2017 AIB Southeast USA conference in Washington D.C. In the weeks leading up to the conference, the top 50 X-Culture students from around the world worked in 10 teams of five students each on a business challenge for Perkins Management Services. The student teams then presented their solution to the challenge and business proposal at the conference to Perkins’ CEO Nicholas Perkins, his executive team and conference participants.

CamposChiodin’s team came in second and won the 2017 X-Culture Team Challenge Runner Up Award.

At the 2017 AIBSE conference in Washington D.C., the top 50 X-Culture students from around the world were also tasked with pitching a business idea to a panel of potential investors or employers in a real elevator at the conference location. The result? Campos-Chiodin won the 2017 X-Culture Business Proposal Elevator Pitch Award. Soon after, she was asked by Vasyl Taras, Ph.D., founder of X-Culture, to join the X-Culture team and assist with the expansion of X-Culture Academy. She gladly accepted and is currently working with Taras on the launching of the pilot program for X-Culture Kids and Teens.

Working with students from different countries presented many logistical and cultural challenges, Campos-Chiodin said. She learned that everyone communicates, handles stress and overcomes obstacles differently, but that doesn’t mean they can’t understand each other.

“Regardless of how weak or strong I felt, I needed them to make it up there,” she said of her teammates.

“By yourself there’s no way you can sell a product to someone just on your own.

You can’t develop it, produce it and check everything, because one person is not perfect. But when you have more than one mind working on it perfection is attainable.”

In an effort to conserve endangered sea turtles, researchers from conducted the first study on disorientation by examining the physiological effects of extended crawling and swimming performance.

The study involved 150 hatchlings collected just as they emerged from 27 loggerhead turtle and 18 green turtle nests on beaches in Palm Beach County, who were all released back into the ocean in their natural habitats soon after the study. The objectives of the study were to characterize the energetics of extended crawl distances on the hatchlings and determine whether crawl distances impacted their initial swim performance.

To better understand the basis of the study, it is best to look at how hatchlings normally operate. A newly hatched sea turtle should be able to crawl from its nest to the ocean in a couple of minutes. This trek occurs in the first 24 hours when they emerge from their nests, which is most commonly referred to as the “frenzy” period. The hatchling mission is to sprint from the beach to the surf and then swim a long distance to reach their ocean home, this however isn’t a simple task.

“What prompted our study was the desire to understand what happens to these hatchlings after they spend hours crawling on the beach because they are disoriented,” said Sarah L. Milton, Ph.D., lead author, and associate professor of biological sciences in FAU’s College of Science, who conducted the study with her graduate student Karen Pankaew. “We wanted to know if they would even be able to swim after crawling 500 meters or more, which could take them as long as seven hours to complete.”

Scientists believe that sea turtle hatchlings have an innate instinct that guides them toward the brightest low horizon and away from tall dark silhouettes, which orients them toward the ocean’s surf. However, excess lighting from the nearshore buildings and streets draw hatchlings toward land, which poses a risk of being eaten by predators, run over by roadway traffic, or drown in swimming pools. Baby sea turtles have about a 50 percent chance of getting to their destination in urban settings where there is this disorientation or misorientation from artificial lighting. Because the “frenzy” period is a group activity and there is safety in numbers, being separated from the crowd also puts them at further risk.

As for the disoriented hatch-

lings who eventually make it to the ocean, they use massive amounts of energy because what was supposed to take a couple of minutes now takes hours to accomplish. Speed is key and their survival depends heavily on their ability to swim.

In the FAU laboratory, Milton and Pankaew used tiny enclosed treadmills with simulated lighting, which the hatchlings followed while on the treadmill. To determine how well they could perform after their walk on the treadmill, the hatchlings swam in a small tank using a specially designed swimsuit. The researchers measured oxygen consumption and lactate accumulation during the hatchlings’ high energy intensive frenzy crawls and frenzy swimming periods. When they were swimming, the researchers also measured the hatchlings’ breathing rates and stroke rates, which is how fast they were paddling their flippers.

To verify that the laboratory simulations on the treadmills were a good representation for actual disorientation, the researchers also conducted field studies. They observed normal and disorientated hatchling behavior and physiology on the beach to see how far the hatchlings crawled, how long it took them, and how often and how long they rested. The researchers compared behavior and metabolic markers in the field with those from laboratory experiments. Results from the laboratory and field studies matched.

“We were completely surprised by the results of this study,” said Milton. “We were expecting that the hatchlings would be really tired from the extended crawling and that they would not be able to swim well. It turned out not to be the case and that they are in fact crawling machines. They crawl and rest, crawl and rest and that’s why they weren’t too tired to swim.”

Milton and Pankaew cautioned that while the hatchlings have incredible physical prowess that enables them to crawl for hours when they are disoriented, they will still wind up spending more time on the beach, which increases their chances of being eaten or harmed in other ways.

“One of the goals of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is to reduce hatchling disorientation and our study provides the scientific basis to support lighting ordinances during turtle hatching season,” said Milton. “We all need to do our part in helping to conserve these incredible animals.”

This research is supported by the National Save the Sea Turtle Foundation and a Friends of Gumbo Limbo graduate grant awarded to Pankaew.

In Spite of the Turbulent 2017, Let us be Hopeful in 2018

With Christmas now in the rear view mirror, it is a time for many of us to take a breath, relax, review the past year and look ahead to the future.

The year 2017 was a year of real and substantial changes in government and politics. It also was punctuated by some amazing highlights as well as the deaths of a few prominent residents.

We kicked off the year with construction on a project designed to improve traffic flow at the Glades Road interchange on Florida’s Turnpike, Sugar Sand Park received a much needed facelift and voters choose Andrea Levine O’Rourke to represent them on the City Council. They also reelected Mayor Susan Haynie and Councilman Scott Singer.

Earlier this month Florida Atlantic University Owls blew out Akron Zips 50-3 to win the Boca Bowl and only three months ago, we saw where Hurricane Maria skirted us, although leaving some damage behind. Some of

our readers and friends are still working on rebuilding their lives, and let us not forget our friends down in Key West and Puerto Rico who continue to repair their homes with no guarantee of electricity or running water.

On a somber note, we lost our columnist and local arts enthusiast Norman “Skip” Sheffield Jr., in July, beloved longtime Mayor Carol Hanson in September and recently, longtime entrepreneur Peter Donovan, who owned and operated The Grille at 5101 Congress Ave.

With a new year comes a resurgence of hope — a blank slate to be written on. We will remain hopeful that 2018 will be a record of more joys than sorrows.

Knowing that the key to our success as a newspaper depends on the partnership we have with you, the entire Tribune family is committed to maintaining and enhancing the quality of the newspaper. We, however, can do so only

through a joint commitment from our readers and advertisers.

On the political front, 2018 promises to be an interesting year.

Mayor Haynie is expected to step down to run for the term-limited seat of Steven Abrams, a former mayor, on the Palm Beach County Commission.

In Delray Beach, veteran commissioner Shelly Petrolia will square off with vice mayor Jim Chard for the mayor’s seat. Petrolia in her fifth year on the commission, is term-limited and chard was first elected in March. Mayor Cary Glickstein announced he would not seek a third term.

Longtime Delray Beach resident and real estate broker Bill Bathurst had no opposition and will fill Chard’s seat.

In another race, former city commissioner Adam Frankel, a criminal defense and personal injury attorney, will tussle with Richard Alteus, who ran unsuccessfully in the March against

Chard and political newcomer Eric Camacho, a political newcomer.

For the Seat 3, incumbent Commissioner Mitch Katz is being challenged by Ryan Boylston, CEO of Delray Beach-based Woo Creative, a local marketing agency, and the founder and publisher of Delray Beach and Boca Raton Newspapers. Katz, a business development liaison for Grand Canyon University, was first elected in 2015.

Ultimately, we’re grateful to live in a community that has a heart for those in need, one that has plenty of opportunities to get involved, a community engaged politically with an eye on the future. As challenging as next year will be, we’re confident Boca Raton has the right people to come up with creative solutions to the problems we face.

The Boca Raton and Delray Beach Tribune team is happy to wish our esteemed readers, advertisers and stakeholders a happy New Year.

POSITIVE LIVING

By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

You Can Communicate Better!

Every human being comes into the world with communication mechanisms. Even newborn babies know how to share pressing needs to a parent or guardian, capable of supplying their request.

What many adults fail to understand, even after several years on planet earth, is that communication among fellow humans is a task that demands continued improvement. The mere utterance of words, or an expression of feelings, does not necessarily indicate that a message has been sufficiently grasped!

Those who are eager to be understood by others, so as to anticipate a response from them, are responsible to convey their message with clarity, free from interfering noises, and at a moment which

offers the best chances of comprehension, and the provision of an adequate response.

Not only serious issues, but also less significant matters, have the greatest probability of being heard, understood, and acted upon when timing, surroundings, and emotional wellbeing of those engaged in the conversation are key factors taken into consideration. A dialogue does it best!

It is the one communicating to another who has the primary responsibility of ascertaining that the message has been heard and understood. While using the vacuum cleaner, when the television or radio are blasting, or when children are fighting or crying nearby, is not the right time to convey messages to

another person, with the expectation of being clearly heard!

The moment a spouse enters the house after a long day at work is never the best time to address any issue of importance to be received by the hearer, especially when that issue entails potentially bad news.

I once heard of a wise wife who studiously avoided greeting her husband after his long day at work with any bad news, regardless of the seriousness of the issue. So, one day, as soon as her husband entered the house, with a welcoming smile she went to kiss him, and proclaimed: “Hi, honey; you should be happy to know that three of our four children are not in the hospital at the moment!” With that creative approach,

and the blow softened, she was able gradually to explain that one of the kids had broken a leg during a ball game, but all else was okay!

You can avoid being misunderstood, not being heard, or sharing your thoughts at an inappropriate moment by seeking the right time, the best setting, and the most clear and adequate words which effectively and exhaustively express what you desire to convey.

It is not late at night, much less when you are tired in bed ready to sleep, or at moments when other pressing sirens beckon another’s attention that you should spill your concerns, or seek an answer to significant matters. Communication is not hard, but it needs to be done effectively!

Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr. is a Florida resident who, for many years, was a professor at the post-graduate level. He is a writer, a sought-after conference speaker, a man who lived in five continents of the world, having received his education in four of them. When he resided in southern California, he wrote a weekly column for the daily “Anaheim Bulletin,” which was carried for about six years, until he moved to south Florida.

COLUMNISTS ROBERT’S COMMUNITY REPORT

FAITH

By Rick Boxx

Building A Values-Based Business

By Robert Weinroth • City events were pretty sparse as the year wound down.

Most of us celebrated with friends and family. If you monitor Facebook, it appeared the two most popular venues on New Year’s Eve were the BB&T Arena to see Billy Joel or the Boca Raton Resort where, from all accounts, the place was hopping!

• The morning after the night before is not generally the time to think about yoga. But thanks to Leslie and Andy Glickman thousands of residents flocked to Mizner Park Amphitheatre to be a part of “Something Big.” Four years ago they set out to create the biggest free community yoga class in South Florida. With over 2,500 community members in attendance, it is clear the inspiration has become a reality. The epic assembly brought together Glickman, an acknowledged yoga instructor, and international recording artist, DJ Derez, with the mission of helping people start the new year connected with a healthy dose of love and inspiration - practicing yoga to live music and enjoying the opportunity to be grateful- embracing with hope and excitement the possibilities for the year ahead - and best of all — it was totally free! If you missed Something Big 2018 mark your calendar for Tuesday January 1st 2019 when Something Big will celebrate it’s 5th Anniversary!

• On Wednesday it was media day at Broken Sound Country Club’s Old Course for the upcoming Boca Raton Championship (formerly the Allianz Championship). Since 2007 the Championship at Broken Sound’s Old Course has been one of South Florida’s favorite events. Internationally televised, the tournament attracts the top PGA Tour Champions players who compete to win a purse of 1.75 million. This year the Championship event begins on February 5th with the Christine E Lynn Women’s Pro-Am (Afternoon Shotgun) followed that evening by the Pro-Am draw party, sponsored by Celebrity Cruise lines. Championship Play comes on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Defending Champion, Scott McCarron, was in attendance and is hoping to repeat his victory which last year put a check for over $260,000 in his pocket. The Boca Raton Championship helps to raise money for the Boca Raton Regional Hospital, as well as many other local charities.

• The municipal elections are just over two months off. The qualifying period for candidates seeking to serve is now open for seats C and D. Incumbents Rodgers and Weinroth have drawn opponents thus making it important for all eligible city residents to register to vote if they will be 18 on or before election day (March 13th). Voting by Mail is a convenient way to exercise your franchise. Securing a Vote by Mail ballot is as easy as going online to the Supervisor of Elections website at: www.pbcelections.org/items.aspx?id=28 Coming up: • Shakespeare Miami brings Hamlet to

January 5 - January 11, 2018

Mizner Park Amphitheater for its sophomore performance. Great for all ages and cultures this weekend long run of free performances tells the story of Hamlet starting in the royal court of Denmark; a place of political maneuvering, spies and deceit, and moves through a tale about ghosts, love, betrayal, revenge and death by the sword. Be sure to pack a blanket and chairs for this dreamy night of theatre under the stars. It’s at Mizner Park Amphitheater for two nights (Saturday Jan 6th and Sunday Jan 7th) at 8PM. • This January, it’s Time To TAKE 5 For You™. Conceived and presented by Boca Raton’s Promise in collaboration with a diverse group of community organizations and professional personal coaches, the interactive program is designed to kick-start personal balance, growth and hope in the new year through a robust blend of art, music, comedy, literature, theater, mind / body / soul balance and enlightenment, TAKE 5 For You™ will deliver 11 empowering opportunities to help energize you to hit your “personal reboot” button for more self-discovery, fulfillment and enjoyment in 2018. Whether you are seeking reflection, renewal and reconnection or a bit of entertainment, laughter and fun with family and friends…you will find it when you TAKE 5 For You™. For the full program guide and registration information visit: BocaRatonsPromise.org/Take5ForYou • The Boca Raton Public Library presents Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (R, 123 min) as part of its Foreign Film Series at the Downtown Library on Tuesday January 9, 6:30-9PM. The spring foreign film series focuses on the vast and diverse works of Asian filmmakers.

• The Junior League of Boca Raton invites you to their non-profit training on Tuesday January 9th 2018 at 10AM at their offices located at 261 NW 13th St Boca Raton FL 33432. How many Great Leaders have you had the opportunity to work with in your life?

If you’re like most of us, sadly the answer is “not that many.” There are some common attributes and characteristics that differentiate good from great leadership. The program will discuss 4 pillars that define great leadership: demonstrate emotional intelligence; build great teams; develop other great leaders; Produce great results. Come prepared to share stories and discuss attributes, and see how you match up against these characteristics.

One of the most underestimated tools for any successful business enterprise is the foundation of values upon which it has been built. If a company’s goal is simply to make high profits, to close a lot of any sales, or even to deliver huge quantities of products or services, it can lead to problems with the end serving to justify the means.

For instance, if the objective is to finalize sales, one might be tempted to make whatever promises are needed to accomplish that – even if the promises cannot be met. Or if maximizing profits is the ultimate goal, it could become easy to justify cutting costs, even if that means compromising the quality of the product or services provided.

However, when a company starts with a clear, well-considered framework of values to guide and govern its operations, chances of both survival and success are increased dramatically. These values essentially define “what we do,” “why we do it,” and “how we do it.”

Many CEOs that are followers of Jesus Christ share a desire to influence their organization with principles from the Bible – which they understand to be the Word of God – while also being sensitive to those team members who may not embrace the same faith. One of the best ways to shape a company culture in an effective, nonoffensive manner is to focus on values, principles of conduct and practice that everyone in the organization can be asked to embrace.

For instance, a value of placing

high priority on customer service is one that few can argue with; we don’t even have to explain this value is based on “doing to others as you would have them do to you” (Luke 6:31). We might embrace the value of doing the best we can at all times, without having to insist that our staff “work at it with al your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men” (Colossians 3:23).

Since many of the values we commonly endorse come right out of the Bible, formulating our core beliefs can serve as a non-threatening way for communicating God’s standards and values. Developing these foundational values and holding your team accountable to them can give you the opportunity to lead the way to doing business God’s way.

As the psalmist expressed in Psalms 119:130, “The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.” To achieve success – and then to sustain it – it is important for every key member of the team to be able to understand and explain what the organization stands for.

What are the basic values and principles that serve as guideposts for how it conducts business on a day to day basis?

If you desire to shape the culture of your organization in God’s way, try determining and articulating your core values. Next, model them, and then communicate them consistently to your team. As the apostle Paul wrote, “Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me – put it into practice” (Philippians 4:9).

The Boca Raton Tribune

SPORTS FAU Women's Golf Signs Keating, Heideman

The Florida Atlantic University women's golf team has added a pair of signees for the 2018-2019 season.

Arielle Keating from Jupiter, Fla has been committed to the Owls since her junior year, when she lived in Colorado Springs, CO. Keating finished her high school career sixth in the 5A state tournament and won the Colorado Junior Am. Keating's father, Brad, is a coach and a PGA professional.

"I am so looking forward to welcoming our star-studded recruiting class of 2018," FAU Head Coach Kathy Guadagnino said. "Arielle Keating is an allround athlete who only recently decided to make a go of it in golf. She just moved to Florida from Colorado to take advantage of the year-round golf and is just starting to unpack her potential with impressive results already. I believe she is only scratching the surface with what she is capable of doing."

Madison Heideman joins the Owls from Largo, Fla and Osceola Fundamental High School. Heideman was the first athlete

in her school's history to qualify for the state finals all four years, helping her school win four district titles and its first two trips to the state championship. Her senior year she won both the district and regional tournaments as the number one player. In her amateur career, Heideman has won seven tournaments including the Florida Junior Amateur Match Play Tournament, the GTJGA Tournament of Champions three times, and more.

"Madison Heideman is a native Floridian and a product of the junior golf circuit here in Florida," Guadagnino said. "I have watched as she has steadily improved over the last couple of years, breaking par on a number of occasions. Madison brings her proven consistency to the team and will no doubt be a vital contributor. Both ladies are excellent students and fierce competitors and the kind of well-rounded individuals that will bring excellence both on and off the course."

FAU Women's Soccer Announce 2018 Spring Schedule

As the calendar will soon flip to 2018 and student-athletes return shortly to campus, Florida Atlantic University women’s soccer will begin preparation for next season with their spring schedule, including a slate of exhibition matches beginning in early February.

The Owls will host three, and travel for three more matches, with the first two at home. On Feb. 9, 2018, at 7 p.m., the team welcomes in the University of Victoria. The Vikes are a Canadian collegiate team out of Victoria, British Columbia. Following that, exactly a week later on Feb. 16, the team will again play at home, against local rival FIU. That match will also be at 7 p.m.

Next up is two road matches, at Miami in Coral Gables, at noon on Saturday, Feb. 24, and at Florida Gulf Coast, in Fort Myers, on Sunday, March 18 at 4 p.m. The schedule wraps at home versus DII Barry (Friday, March 30 at 7:30 p.m.) and on the road, in Orlando, at UCF on Saturday, April 14, with a 3 p.m. kickoff.

“We are excited for the 2018 spring season and looking forward to

developing our players from January to April,” said Head Coach Patrick Baker.

“Each January begins a new journey for our team, and we feel a quality spring can directly influence what we do in the fall.

We have a large group of players returning and will be able to address a variety of different topics throughout the season.

Our players will compete three times before Spring Break and three times after, against very good teams that will challenge us in many ways. Player development will be a key piece to 2018 and their progression will be exciting to see.”

Once more, here is the full schedule for the Owls this spring: • Friday, Feb. 9 – Home – University of Victoria – 7 p.m.

• Friday, Feb. 16 – Home – FIU – 7 p.m.

Saturday, Feb. 24 – Coral Gables, Fla. – Miami – Noon • Sunday, March 18 – Fort Myers, Fla. – Florida Gulf Coast – 4 p.m.

• Friday, March 30 – Home – Barry – 7:30 p.m.

• Saturday, April 14 – Orlando, Fla. – UCF – 3 p.m.
