For years, health systems have approached ambulatory care as a pipeline for inpatient volumes. But today's health care environment calls for a new mindset—one that prioritizes ambulatory capabilities designed to drive enterprise-wide success. Challenging this longstanding approach is just the first step. In this episode, host Rachel (Rae) Woods welcomes Advisory Board experts Nick Hula and Lauren Woodrow to explore why the ambulatory network of the future demands getting better before getting bigger. Smart growth isn't just about expansion—it's about focusing on operational efficiency, breaking clinicians' attachment to specific sites, and leveraging partnerships to unlock the full potential of ambulatory care. We're here to help: Ep. 238: Is your ambulatory strategy stuck in 2015?

Quarterly earnings reports have been a fixture of American business for more than 50 years ... but are their days numbered? Earlier this month, President Donald Trump reignited debate by suggesting companies should only report twice a year, a move he says would cut costs and free executives to focus on the long term. But would fewer reports build stronger businesses, or erode trust in the markets? In this episode of Is This Really a Thing?, Dean Paul Jarley sits down with UCF College of Business Hall of Fame members Paul Gregg and Jim Balaschak, along with accounting faculty member EB Altiero Poziemski, to examine whether the quarterly report is an outdated ritual or a critical safeguard. Could its demise really be a thing? Featured Guests EB Altiero Poziemski, MSA Program Director & Advisor / Associate Lecturer Paul Gregg, Finance Executive in Residence Jim G. Balaschak - Principal, Deanja, LLC Episode Transcription Paul Jarley: Sometimes things just come together. Last week I read something about the President's proposal to shift from quarterly to semi-annual earnings reports. That same week I was holding the College's fall meeting of our Dean's Advisory Board. The Board is filled with folks who have a direct interest in this debate. So I convened a quick panel to gain insights into the likely death of the quarterly report. Paul Gregg is an experienced CFO, member of the College of Business Hall of Fame and an Executive in Residence in the Department of Finance. He is joined by Jim Balaschak, a fellow Hall of Famer and serial investor, and EB Altiero Poziemski, a faculty member in the Dixon School of Accounting. Quarterly earnings reports have been with us for 50 years. President Trump has floated the idea of going European and cutting back to semi-annual reporting. Would that save money, destroy trust in markets or both? And what happens when AI makes real time disclosure possible? In this episode, we ask whether the cadence of reporting is about efficiency or about faith in the system itself. Could the end of the quarterly earnings report really be a thing? Stay tuned. This show is all about separating hype from fundamental change. I'm Paul Jarley, Dean of the College of Business here at UCF. I've got lots of questions. To get answers, I'm talking to people with interesting insights into the future of business. Have you ever wondered, Is This Really a Thing? Onto our show. EB, let me start with you. Talk a little bit about when the quarterly report first came about and why, and the changes over the years. EB Altiero Poziemski: The requirement to actually have any financial reporting whatsoever from our public companies started with the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. So that was the first time that there was a law that said a publicly traded company had to periodically report their results to their investors. Paul Jarley: This was a response that Great Depression, right? EB Altiero Poziemski: Yes. Following on that, in 1955, that was when the requirement for semi-annual reports was added to the rules, and so we saw that sometime between the original 1934 act and 1955, there was an increased demand for more timely information about these companies. And then from there, we didn't see quarterly reporting required until 1970. So in the grand scheme of things, it's actually a fairly recent development and not entirely a settled one either because we're here talking about it right now. But Donald Trump also brought this up in 2018, actually brought it to the SEC for comment. It did go out for public comment at that time, and in 2013, the European Union actually abolished quarterly reporting for the companies that they regulate. So it's been kind of a push and pull over time. Paul Jarley: Paul, you've been in the corporate world for a lot of years, what actually do you need to report? Paul Gregg: First of all, the report is unaudited, unlike the 10-K, which is an audited report.

In this episode of The Food Professor Podcast presented by Caddle, co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois bring their trademark mix of food industry news analysis and an in-depth conversation with a leading Canadian food entrepreneur.The episode opens with a wide-ranging look at the Canadian retail and restaurant landscape. Sylvain shares highlights from his keynote in Brampton, Ontario, where the city is building momentum as a potential logistics hub for food and agriculture. Michael and Sylvain discuss strong retail sales numbers, resilience in consumer spending, and a new Restaurants Canada report. The report highlights shifting meal occasions, with Canadians dining out less often but increasingly turning to delivery services like UberEats and DoorDash. They also unpack the surprising rise of solo dining, with nearly 30% growth in single reservations year over year, and how restaurants can adapt to this trend through design and menu innovation. The hosts then tackle Farm Credit Canada's call for greater export diversification, weighing the challenges of competing in heavily subsidized global markets. Finally, they examine the U.S. government's controversial decision to cut data collection on food insecurity, with Sylvain stressing the long-term risks of limiting access to robust research data.The second half of the episode welcomes Kirk Homenick, President of Naturally Homegrown Foods, the Surrey, B.C.–based company behind Hardbite Chips and PopTastic popcorn.

Kirk highlights the role of avocado oil in fueling 82% annual growth since 2018, how PopTastic quickly became an award-winning hit, and why innovation in seasonal flavours and packaging keeps the brand fresh and relevant.Kirk also offers a candid look at challenges, from volatile ingredient costs to managing manufacturing complexity, and how his team leans on operational excellence and creativity to stay ahead.

Health systems know they need to pull out all the stops when it comes to improving operational efficiency, given their financial climate. That doesn't necessarily mean they need entirely new strategies — but they do need to make the most of the tried-and-true tactics. Care variation reduction (CVR) has been part of the operational excellence playbook for years. The opportunity for efficiency and cost savings through CVR is massive—about $100B nationally — but the vast majority of health systems have not been able to unlock its full potential. This week, host Abby Burns invites Advisory Board provider operations expert Isis Monteiro to break down what's getting in the way of realizing that $100B, and how leaders can start to move the needle. We're here to help: Ep. 239: UNC Health: The care variation reduction story you need to hear Care Variation Reduction Assessment Identify your biggest opportunities for care variation reduction 6 strategies to improve your operating margins and financial resilience [Webinar] Care variation reduction: A $100B savings opportunity Learn from the 100+ health system finance leaders who participated in Advisory Board's capital spending survey — and find out how health systems are making capital decisions today.

Michael and Sylvain debate Canada's “Big Five” fast-tracked federal projects and why agri-food continues to be sidelined in national infrastructure planning. They highlight the missed opportunities for boosting food supply chain efficiency, from beef processing facilities to critical ports like Vancouver, which remain among the world's least efficient. The hosts also unpack new EV tariffs targeting Chinese electric vehicles, dissect how they intersect with trade relations, and explore why Canada's ag sector is often the first target of Chinese retaliation. The discussion moves to TikTok's ongoing influence in food marketing, recalling Ocean Spray's viral cranberry moment and the elusive quest for the next billion-view food trend. Rounding out the news, they tackle inflation, food counter-tariffs, and how media narratives are obscuring the real cost impact on Canadian consumers—everything from coffee and tea prices soaring by 20% to rising costs in meat, sugar, and spices.The conversation then shifts to a feature interview with James Maitland, CEO of Les Aliments Dainty Foods Inc.—Canada's only rice mill, located in Windsor, Ontario. James shares his career journey from General Mills and Maple Leaf Foods to leading Dainty, a company with a proud 140-year legacy. He reveals breaking news about the company's upcoming U.S. expansion, with a $50–$75 million investment in a new facility focused on retort pouch technology and ready-to-eat innovation. James explains how Dainty sources authentic rice from global origins, mills it in Canada, and continues to grow as a trusted brand on Canadian shelves. The discussion highlights innovation, from the launch of the new Timewise brand—featuring convenient pasta and rice dishes—to sustainability initiatives like regeneratively grown rice and packaging breakthroughs.With unique insights on tariffs, supply chain challenges, and the balance between legacy and growth, James Maitland provides a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to lead a Canadian food brand into the future.

Do you struggle with the idea of selling your products? I am hearing from a lot of creative entrepreneurs who are telling me that they feel uncomfortable with in-person sales.

“You can find out what your MSP is worth in just 15 seconds,” says Paul Daigle of Biz Advisory Board. “Our evaluator benchmarks your business against peers and shows where you can grow and how to position for acquisition.” At the MSP Summit in Orlando, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sat down with Daigle moments after his standing-room-only, three-hour session on mergers and acquisitions. Daigle explained how the Biz Advisory Board's MSP Business Evaluator and Accelerator helps owners measure themselves against best-in-class peers, identify gaps, and create strategies to “level up” across 72 key business functions—from marketing and HR to cybersecurity and finance. The model not only helps MSPs break through growth ceilings but also prepares them for successful exits. By showing where an MSP stands compared to others in its revenue group, the evaluator highlights the steps needed to increase valuation and attract buyers. Daigle emphasized that private equity firms, strategic buyers, and financial buyers all use similar benchmarks, making it critical for MSPs to align their operations before entering M&A discussions. He also highlighted the role of AI in shaping valuations. Smaller MSPs can increase EBITDA by replacing entry-level technicians with AI-driven efficiencies, while larger MSPs can scale without additional headcount—both strategies boosting profitability and acquisition appeal. With a growing newsletter following and active LinkedIn presence, Daigle shares weekly insights for MSPs seeking to grow or prepare for sale. “There's no two MSPs alike,” he noted. “But every MSP can accelerate growth and maximize value if they measure themselves and take action.” Learn more at bizadvisoryboard.com.
The Advisory Board | Expert Franchising Advice for Franchise Leaders
Big energy today with guest Josh Yonke (yes, you nailed the pronunciation) — co-founder & CRO of Leashed AI and a long-time operator in franchising and services (Thumbtack's first sales hire; helped scale to $100M+). Josh and Dave get real about how to actually use conversational AI to drive sales ROI — not the “spin up a chatbot and pray” version, but the integrated, on-brand, compliant, and relentlessly iterative version.Josh's backstory sets the tone: military family roots (Navy dad), four high schools, zero fear of striking up conversations — basically, the DNA of a top seller. He and partner Russ Burnett spun Leashed AI out from earlier work to focus on practical, revenue-producing automations: inbound/outbound AI calls, 24/7 web agents and chat that can book, SMS/email cadences, social DM responders across Meta, Google LSA responders, and even a roofing estimator that quotes straight from aerial imagery.What We Cover (and Why It Matters)The 3 ingredients of useful AI: great inputs (brand knowledge), continuous training/QA, and an operator who actually understands sales math and objection handling.Implementation that sticks: plug AI into your CRM, calendar, and phone systems so it can log notes, set tasks, and adjust cadences automatically — the follow-through humans intend to do.Compliance or consequences: get explicit opt-ins for SMS and automated calls; the “we haven't been caught” strategy is not a strategy when fines can stack fast.After-hours wins: most bookings happen when humans are off-duty. 24/7, on-brand AI captures those opportunities in home services and franchise development.Mid-funnel momentum: re-engage no-shows, answer FDD basics, and keep qualified prospects moving without making reps hike the ball and block.Customer experience > hold music: if AI can solve the problem now, don't make customers wait 45 minutes to talk to a human who can't.Augment > replace: use AI to eliminate minutiae so your best reps spend time selling — then iterate faster than your competition.Partner TeaseDave hints at fresh collaboration between The Advisory Board and Leashed AI — announcements coming soon.Connect with Josh & Leashed AISite: LeashedAI.comJosh direct: 385-888-6457 (main line routes to his AI after hours — fitting, right?)Sponsor LoveHuge thanks to ClientTether for powering this episode. If you care about speed-to-lead, compliant follow-up, and real pipeline lift, ClientTether's the quiet force that makes the loud results possible.Pull Quotes“AI is only as good as the operator and the inputs.”“Identify the minutiae, then automate it. Let reps do what only humans can do.”“Adoption, not hype, is the next big thing.”
In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Daniel Levy, President of the U.S./Middle East Project (USMEP). They discuss Levy's argument that the way that Israel withdrew Israeli settlements from Gaza in 2005 set the stage for today's genocide; as Levy put it in a recent +972 Magazine piece, the current Israeli paradigm is "not just separating from the Palestinians, relegated to shrinking Bantustans, but annihilating and erasing them." Moor and Levy also discuss the impact of Israel's attacks in Qatar this week both in the near and longterm, the need for Netanyahu to formally deny Israeli involvement in the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and shifting political approaches to Israel/Palestine. Daniel Levy is the President of the U.S./Middle East Project (USMEP), which emphasizes the Palestine-Israel issue alongside regional conflicts, trends and geopolitics. From 2012 to 2016, Levy was Director for the Middle East and North Africa at the European Council on Foreign Relations. Prior to that he was a senior Fellow and Director of the New America Foundation's Middle East Taskforce in Washington D.C. and a Senior Fellow at The Century Foundation in New York. Levy was a Senior Advisor in the Israeli Prime Minister's Office and to Justice Minister Yossi Beilin during the Government of Ehud Barak (1999-2001). He was a member of the official Israeli delegation to the Israel/Palestine peace talks at Taba under Barak and at Oslo B under Yitzhak Rabin (1994-95). Levy is a founder and Advisory Board member of Diaspora Alliance (combatting antisemitism and its conflation), a Council Member of the ECFR, and serves on the board of the European Middle East Project. He is a former Trustee of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund in New York and of the New Israel Fund, a co-founder of J Street, and a founding Editor of the Middle East Channel at foreignpolicy.com. Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine. He also currently serves on the board of the Independence Media Foundation. His work has been published in The Guardian, The London Review of Books, The Nation, and elsewhere. He earned a BA at the University of Pennsylvania and an MPP at Harvard University. Original music by Jalal Yaquoub.

In the past several months, the Trump administration has frozen, cancelled, or rescinded millions—even billions—of dollars in federal funding for scientific and clinical research. This is funding that flows directly from bodies like the NIH to universities, academic medical centers, and others to facilitate basic science research, translational research, public health initiatives, and more. Frankly, many organizations did not see these cuts coming—at least not at this scale. And the impacts are likely to touch most every corner of the industry. This week, host Abby Burns sits down with Advisory Board experts Emily Heuser and Gaby Marmolejos to dig into how these cuts are being orchestrated and the ripple effects they may cause across—and even beyond—the healthcare industry.

Bath, England is celebrating Jane Austen - 250 years of her and her legacy.
CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMWhile we normally would have a monologue this week, the urgency of the situation in places like Gaza compelled us to publish this interview sooner than later.In this episode, we interview world-renowned humanitarian Jason Jones, founder of the Vulnerable People Project (VPP). Jason is a Catholic convert from atheism, and through his deep study of the Great Tradition, has built his life's work of promoting a culture of life and human dignity based on a simple principle: Catholics have a duty to stand with the scapegoat.His work has taken him from the halls of power in Washington, DC advocating for the dignity of the unborn, to some of the most troubled spots on earth: Sudan, Iraq, Syria, Ukraine, Afghanistan, and now Gaza. In a world constantly trying to get us to pick unworthy sides in sordid conflicts, Jason embodies what it means for Catholics to not merely think about the Great Tradition, but to live it out in our lives: sacrificially taking up the cross of Our Scapegoat Jesus Christ, and standing with all the other scapegoats the world abuses and destroys for its own purposes.Jason Jones is a film producer, author, activist, popular podcast host, and dedicated human rights worker. He is also a member of Eternal Christendom's Advisory Board.Please support the work of Christ through the Vulnerable People Project: https://www.vulnerablepeopleproject.com/VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONWe are a non-profit, and all gifts are tax-deductible.

This episode originally aired on April 15, 2025. In times of uncertainty, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by what's out of your control. That's why over the next few weeks we're revisiting three powerful conversations that remind us where to focus: on operational excellence, on what is within your control, and on the urgency to act now. Whether you're navigating workforce challenges, financial pressures, or strategic pivots, these episodes offer practical insights to help you retrench, refocus, and lead with clarity. Let's face it: Hospitals and post-acute providers can find themselves at odds. Post-acute is an area of the industry that is often misunderstood and sometimes villainized. But when post-acute care struggles, it directly impacts hospital operations. The industry needs a solution. It starts with understanding that the post-acute space is not a monolith. Because only by understanding how different facilities struggle—and how systems can support or partner with them—can we unlock their potential. That's why this week, host Abby Burns invites Advisory Board expert Monica Westhead, and Optum Advisory post-acute care expert Jennifer Skaggs to unpack the post-acute landscape and break down what effective acute-post-acute partnerships looks like. Throughout the discussion, they explore why post-acute facilities are struggling to stay afloat, and why partnering with post-acute facilities is better avenue than building or buying. We're here to help: Optum Advisory partners with hospitals nationwide to improve efficiency and optimize resource utilization to reduce labor expenses. The Playbook for Hospital/Post-Acute Care Collaboration New staffing mandates for SNFs will have broad effects. Here's how to prepare.

That's why over the next few weeks we're revisiting three powerful conversations that remind us where to focus: on operational excellence, on what is within your control, and on the urgency to act now. Whether you're navigating workforce challenges, financial pressures, or strategic pivots, these episodes offer practical insights to help you retrench, refocus, and lead with clarity. We've said it before on Radio Advisory: hospital volumes are back. But leaders know this isn't necessarily a sigh of relief. With a lot of hospitals at—or even over-- capacity, hospital leaders need to find ways to improve patient throughput and reduce length of stay. And trust me, they've been trying. The question is, why is it so hard to address capacity and length of stay, and what can leaders do about it in 2025? This week, host Rachel (Rae) Woods is joined by Advisory Board expert Isis Monteiro. Isis shares what she learned from her “world tour” of talking with 45 healthcare leaders from nine countries to understand how they're tackling capacity challenges. Throughout the conversation, they break down three root causes of high hospital length of stay and highlight examples of how organizations are overcoming them. We're here to help: Ep. 225: Patients are back – so why aren't hospital margins? Ep. 221: How will health system growth look different in 2025 and beyond?

(This episode originally aired on October 1, 2024.) In times of uncertainty, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by what's out of your control. That's why over the next few weeks we're revisiting three powerful conversations that remind us where to focus: on operational excellence, on what is within your control, and on the urgency to act now. Whether you're navigating workforce challenges, financial pressures, or strategic pivots, these episodes offer practical insights to help you retrench, refocus, and lead with clarity. In the past, we've told our listeners that the number one area of focus for health system growth is operational excellence, and a major part of that is capturing all of the revenue on the table from your medical group. Healthcare organizations have spent the last decade buying up medical groups and physicians, in part because of the “promise” of downstream referrals. It is a long-held belief that physician employment leads to higher referral integrity. But according to an Advisory Board data analysis, that doesn't hold true - just 55% of total referral revenue attributed to employed PCPs is realized in-network. This week, host Rachel (Rae) Woods invites Advisory Board physician experts Eliza Dailey and Colleen Wagner to unpack where referral leakage actually happens and share the real (and relatively easy) steps organizations can take to reduce referral leakage. We're here to help: Tools to reduce referral leakage in the medical group Are employed PCPs more likely to refer within their health systems?

Healthcare organizations have always faced operational, financial, and strategic pressures—but in 2025, those challenges are intensifying. A wave of current and anticipated policy changes is reshaping the industry, leaving leaders to navigate an increasingly complex and uncertain landscape. To better understand how executives are preparing for what's ahead, Advisory Board held more than 130 conversations through one-on-one calls, small-group policy forums, and other formats. These discussions revealed a wide range of strategies, concerns, and priorities. The reality? There's no universal playbook for this moment. When best practices fall short, peer-to-peer insights offer a powerful way to benchmark reactions and learn from others. In this episode, host Rachel (Rae) Woods sits down with Natalie Trebes and Chad Peltier—two researchers leading Advisory Board's policy work. Together, they explore why peer learning is more critical than ever, what's top of mind for executives across the industry, and how organizations are responding to the shifting policy landscape.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by LMNT, we are joined by Nathan Wright, known on trail as Switchback. Nathan is an ambassador for the Pinhoti Trail and Alabama trails more broadly, wearing almost too many hats to count. He is the co-founder of the Pinhoti Outdoor Center - a hostel he runs with his wife, President of the Alabama Hiking Trail Society, Vice President of the Alabama Pinhoti Trail Association, Chairman of the Board of the Pinhoti Experience Foundation, and serves on the Advisory Board of the Alabama Trails Commission. In this conversation, we go deep on everything to do with the Pinhoti Trail and Nathan's many roles in supporting it. We cover the best time of year to hike it, what to expect in terms of wildlife, resupply, water, and logistics, as well as the standout physical features of the trail. Nathan also shares why the trail's surrounding community makes it so special, the can't-miss town stops and restaurants, and why he believes it's the best off-season thru-hike in the US. We wrap the show with a FREE STUFF alert for 2025 PCT Thru-Hikers, how to get college credit for thru-hiking the AT, how our lives would be totally different if our first names were spelled differently, the triple crown of thru-hiker fads, a shortest day of the year of the week, and a listener shares some intel on Texas' most underrated trail.
