SMEs power Singapore’s economy, but rising costs, intense competition and talent pressures are making survival tougher than ever. With people often the biggest expense line, is HR still being treated as back-office admin instead of a strategic function? We speak with Stephanie Chua, Founder of Vault Personnel, about whether HR has evolved fast enough to meet the realities facing SMEs today, and why getting it wrong can be costly.

President Donald Trump said he has learned that his administration might need to take "a little bit of a softer touch" in its immigration crackdown in Minneapolis, following the fatal shootings of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents last month. Trump's comments come amid mounting backlash, including from some Republican lawmakers, over the Department of Homeland Security's response to the shootings and its broader handling of operations in Minneapolis. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, both Democrats, called the withdrawal a positive first step but urged the Trump administration to end the remaining federal presence as soon as possible. After Pretti's shooting, Trump removed Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino from overseeing the Minneapolis operation and placed Homan in charge, calling him "tough but fair" and saying he would report directly to the president.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
He’s free of “The Mitch Reynolds’ Ordinance.” After a year and a half of debate and study on creating a city administrator position, it failed in council last week, and La Crosse Mayor Shaundel Washington-Spivey feels like he can finally move forward. On the show, Washington-Spivey dubbed the plan “The Mitch Reynolds’ Ordinance" — it was first put out to council in September of 2024 and proceeded to get pushed back over and over until it finally landed on February’s agenda. But the council essentially voted down the plan(s) — a position Washington-Spivey campaigned and won an election for mayor on, but also one that he admitted, a few months ago on WIZM, he hoped would fail. We dove into where the city goes now, along with other things the mayor is doing to set a path for La Crosse’s future with strategic planning sessions, budget sessions and his fourth "Your City, Your 15" interviews. We also discussed the expansion of the airport — and it was suggested to him that maybe they need a Culver's if airlines are going to keep coming there. We began the show, though, recapping Gov. Tony Evers’ State of the State address. Washington-Spivey was an invited guest and got to go to what was jokingly called the “after party at the governor’s mansion.” So, of course, we had to ask him about the spread — the highlight of which was seafood and New Glarus. Ultimately, though, a lot of the show focused on the city administrator issue, and what Washington-Spivey hopes to see going forward now that the council and government officials aren’t "hamstrung" by having to discuss the old ordinance.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Why does the day disappear, even when you start with a clear plan? For busy professionals with ADHD, time blindness isn't a character flaw. Research points to neurobiological differences in executive function and time perception, dopamine dysregulation affecting motivation and internal timing. The result? Reactive weeks. Strategic thinking is squeezed out by "urgent." Constant context switching. Strained relationships. In this episode, Dave reframes time blocking as visual decision-making and not rigid scheduling. Why high achievers with ADHD struggle with estimating time The leadership cost of operating without visual structure Using themed blocks (Deep Work, Meetings, Admin, Strategic Thinking, Recovery) Planning by energy, not just the clock Matching high-focus windows to complex work Building buffers and overflow blocks (plan for reality, not perfection) Transition rituals to reduce friction (5-minute resets, defining the next tiny step, clearing tabs) The "Land and Launch" method for smoother task switching **Do you want to work with Dave one-on-one?

Most business owners are barely scratching the surface of AI — and it's costing them speed, clarity, and competitive advantage. If you're using AI to: "Write me an email." "Create 5 social posts." "Give me some ideas." You're driving a Ferrari at 25 mph. In this episode of SoTellUs Time, Trevor and Troy Howard break down how to stop using AI like a search engine and start using it like a strategic execution partner. This is not about better prompts. It's about Prompt Stacking — the method that turns AI into your marketing department, project manager, operations assistant, and execution engine.
This is likely only the beginning of the reckoning. ----- As predicted on last week's episode, Brad Karp left the top post at Paul Weiss following the disclosure of friendly correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein. But Karp wasn't the only Biglaw lawyer in the files, nor were his conversations the most troubling. A former Clifford Chance trainee drafted a sex contract with Epstein, Goldman Sachs GC Kathy Ruemmler made a joke with Epstein that normally you wouldn't make with someone who already pleaded guilty to child prostitution charges, and Alan Dershowitz managed to drag Paul Weiss into the case again when people found sex tourism legal analysis in the files from a now-Paul Weiss partner... passing along Dershowitz's thoughts. Meanwhile in Minnesota, a DOJ lawyer called out the broken immigration system before literally asking to be held in contempt so she could get some sleep. which is what happens when an administration breaks the legal system so thoroughly that even its own lawyers can't keep up with the chaos. And legal tech took a financial jolt as Anthropic announced its entry into the legal tech space. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Walk Your Buyer's Journey: Finding the Friction Points Killing Your Customer Experience When was the last time you actually experienced what it's like to be a customer of your own company? Most operators and Seconds-In-Command are so deep in the weeds of delivery that they've never walked the buyer's journey from first contact to final goodbye, which means customer experience issues go unnoticed until they become complaints. The exercise is simple but revealing: map out every single step from that first phone call or website visit all the way through fulfillment, including timelines between steps and who the customer interacts with at each point. Together you'll cover a case studio of a company that discovered two major friction points through this process. The businesses winning right now aren't always the ones with the best product or pricing - they're the ones making it easy and pleasant to work with. You'll hear all about: 00:29 - Introduction: Walking the buyer's journey - what does it actually look like to do business with you 01:02 - The reality check: It's rare that you have firsthand experience being a customer of your own company 01:14 - Why minor problems go unnoticed until they become customer complaints 01:26 - The exercise: Start mapping from the very first phone call, email, or website visit 01:47 - How to map it: Take a blank piece of paper and document every single step, no matter how small 02:15 - Include timelines between steps and who in your company interacts with the buyer at each point 02:37 - Map all the way to the last touch: fulfillment, project close-out, or the final goodbye 02:45 - Two key things to analyze: How many people are they interacting with? Where are the significant time gaps? 03:16 - Critical insight: Buyer's remorse sets in as soon as payment is processed 03:37 - Real example: Landscaping company case study reveals two major issues 03:50 - Issue #1: Admin takes initial info, then client waits a week or more for the design team to contact them 04:14 - Issue #2: Multiple waiting periods create a roller coaster of excitement and frustration 04:57 - The harsh truth: Silence and time kill deals 05:17 - How gaps create anxiety even for clients who stick around 05:23 - The coffee shop analogy: Two long lines might look like success, but customers are actually frustrated 06:03 - Important caveat: Not every gap is bad - custom work takes time, but are you managing expectations? 06:19 - Your homework: Walk the buyer's journey yourself or have a team member act as an internal secret shopper 07:00 - Level up move: Ask a recent customer to walk you through their experience (15 minutes of insight) 07:17 - Fall retreat preview and the four CSat questions discussed at the last event 08:05 - Question #1: Who owns customer satisfaction? (If everyone owns it, no one owns it) 08:33 - Question #2: What decisions in the past year impacted CSat most (positive or negative)? 08:43 - Question #3: What complaints led to the most significant operations changes? 08:53 - Question #4: What opportunities exist in your buyer's journey to improve customer experience?

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 5:13–20 and Jesus' words, “You are the salt of the earth.” This sermon explores salt not as a compliment, but as a calling—meant to preserve life and bring flavor to the world.

Every leader carries expectations they rarely question. In this episode, Dr. McKinley exposes seven common expectations that quietly undermine leadership when left unchallenged. Drawing from psychology and timeless wisdom, he explores how unrealistic demands erode trust and resilience and how releasing them restores clarity and influence.

Erica thinks an Admin Night could be fun...can she convince Slacker to join, too?
In this episode, we explore the intersection of technology, scalability, and human connection. We begin with Peter Lancet from My Trencher, who discusses the "numbers game" university career services face. He explains how his platform provides an "operational layer" that allows small teams to support thousands of students, moving from reactive advice to strategically identifying and assisting those most at risk. The conversation then deepens with Doug Delpha, a Professor at the University of Strasbourg and AI Engineer. Doug advocates for a return to the "Aristotle and Plato" style of mentorship, arguing that while teachers must become AI-proficient, their primary role is to be a protected human figure who can handle sensitive student crises that chatbots simply cannot. Crucially, Doug also issues a wake-up call regarding digital sovereignty, challenging international institutions to build "elasticity" into their systems rather than relying blindly on American infrastructure that could be impacted by geopolitical shifts or outages. We then turn our focus to the administrative side of inclusion with Andy Bell from Trellis. A winner of the CivTech award in Scotland, Andy shares how his team is using AI to alleviate the paperwork burden in Special Educational Needs (SEND) departments. By transcribing meetings and automatically creating first drafts of child plans, Trellis is helping councils and teachers reclaim valuable time, allowing them to focus less on administration and more on the students who need them most.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITA quiet Starbucks run turns into a surprising tour of how small choices shape big outcomes. We start with the end of an era—Minute Maid retiring frozen juice concentrate after 80 years—and dig into what that says about shifting consumer habits, nostalgia's pull, and the way convenience rewrites household rituals. The story isn't just about orange juice; it's about how markets sunset what once felt essential and what we do with the empty space left behind.From there, we shift to a more personal, uneasy topic: the safety net around an 84-year-old who relies on others to get around. We ask the questions that often go unasked—about motion cameras with no subscriptions, rides that seem to vanish, and how community support can blur into assumption. If tech is part of your safety plan, it needs to be configured to record. If people are part of your safety plan, the rotation needs names and times. Aging with dignity depends on real structure, not just good will.Then we get practical with the “admin night” trend—friends gathering to clear inboxes, pay bills, cancel subscriptions, and set calendars. It sounds minor, but the psychology is major: social accountability lowers the activation energy on boring tasks. We walk through a lightweight playbook you can steal today—time boxing, single targets, no phone calls, shared playlists—to reclaim mental space fast. Finally, we face a hard headline: Match.com emails tied to Jeffrey Epstein, post-offender registration. It's a case study in platform safety, screening limits, and the trade-off between frictionless sign-ups and real protection. We call for transparency from platforms and practical self-protection for users.If you're ready for one small shift with outsized payoff, here's your prompt: what do you procrastinate most on, and when will you give it 25 minutes this week?
