Mark Gilham is an experienced senior executive with a proven track record in finance, strategy, and consulting. He brings deep expertise in driving commercial success, improving operational efficiencies, and influencing industry best practices.  In this episode, Mark shares the transformative power of rebates as tools for driving both customer behavior and operational efficiency, rather than just cost-cutting mechanisms. He highlights the importance of designing rebates that align with business goals, such as incentivizing desirable customer actions, improving operational processes, and fostering long-term loyalty.    Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn how rebates can go beyond simple cost-cutting to solve operational challenges, enhance customer loyalty, and drive profitability for your business. Gain insights into how rebates can incentivize customer behaviors that benefit both parties, creating a more collaborative and sustainable business relationship. Discover innovative ways to use rebates to optimize your operations, create efficiencies, and stronger partnerships with customers.   "Get out from behind your desk; get away from the spreadsheet and understand your business. Understand what makes your business tick." - Mark Gilham   Topics Covered: 01:11 - How he transitioned from accountancy to pricing 02:24 - Explaining why accountants' focus on cost-plus pricing 03:52 - Highlighting how understanding pricing enables finance professionals to interpret data more effectively and influence business outcomes 05:35 - Strategic role of rebates in B2B, their challenges, and how they differ from traditional incentives and discounts 08:18 - Importance of structuring rebates and balancing discounts and rebates in B2B to maintain margins 11:11 - Dynamics of incentivizing end consumers versus channel partners 14:59 - Optimizing rebate structures 20:40 - Sharing how rebates can incentivize operational efficiency 25:55 - Advocating for pricing teams to lead rebate strategies to create lasting customer relationships and reduce reliance on discounting 28:11 - Highlighting the potential of rebates to address operational inefficiencies   Key Takeaways: "Immature pricing practices tend to be that cost-plus. And when I say immature, it's not that it's bad, it's just they don't know what good looks like or what's better." - Mark Gilham "A good rebate is a rebate that a manufacturer or supplier wants to pay out." - Mark Gilham "I believe pricing have the tools and the skillset to, and it should be on the sell side, to equip salespeople to go out, not to win an order, but to kind of win a relationship. And make that relationship sticky so that discounting actually is not, it's always going to be important, but hopefully you can take a little bit of that pressure off the table." - Mark Gilham "If you want a better deal from your supplier, think about all the things you could do to make their life easier and ask them, ‘What's that worth to you?' And that's a far better way of getting a bit of extra money out of the contract than just saying, ‘I want my product for less.'" - Mark Gilham   People/Resources Mentioned: Enable: https://www.enable.com   Connect with Mark Gilham: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markgilham/ Email: mark.gilham@enable.com   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

In this episode, Meg and Maggi explore the concept of self-trust and introduce their 'Self-Trust Starter Pack.' They discuss the importance of three foundational principles: Practice, Pause, and Presence, which can help individuals cultivate self-trust. Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, they emphasize the significance of reflection, the power of taking a moment to pause before responding, and the necessity of alone time to foster a deeper connection with oneself. The conversation encourages listeners to embrace their journey towards self-trust, acknowledging that it requires practice and patience. Takeaways: Self-trust is a journey that requires practice. Emotions can cloud our ability to make decisions. Reflection is key to understanding our choices. The pause allows us to respond rather than react. Presence is about being in the moment with ourselves. Alone time is essential for cultivating self-trust. We must advocate for our needs in relationships. Mistakes are part of the learning process. Self-trust grows from making decisions and reflecting on them. The three P's are foundational to building self-trust.

On the latest episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, we explore the innovative and impactful journeys of two remarkable guests: Shanna Greathouse, founder and CEO of Pigybak, and Joe Manofsky, chairman, president, and co-founder of One Step Ahead Ohio. These two changemakers are reshaping how we think about skilled trades, community development, and career pathways in ways that are inspiring and deeply transformational. Shanna Greathouse: Transforming Communities Through Technology Shanna Greathouse's entrepreneurial journey is rooted in her love for community and her passion for creating equitable solutions. As the founder of  Pigybak, she's revolutionizing the way homeowners and tradespeople connect. Leveraging AI-driven technology, Pigybakprovides a marketplace where contractors can streamline their scheduling while homeowners access affordable, collaborative home services. The company's unique "group deal" model encourages neighborhood collaboration, reducing costs and fostering a stronger sense of community. Drawing from her background in consulting and analytics, Shanna turned her observations of inefficiencies in the trades and home services industry into an innovative platform. Her deep commitment to supporting local tradespeople—many of whom are small business owners from underrepresented groups—adds a layer of purpose to Pigybak's mission. For Shanna, the initiative isn't just about home services; it's about empowering tradespeople, rebuilding neighborhoods, and creating sustainable opportunities for growth. Joe Manofsky: Advocating for Workforce Development in Ohio Joe Manofsky's path to philanthropy and advocacy began in his hometown of Youngstown, Ohio, where community values shaped his drive to give back. As the co-founder of One Step Ahead Ohio, Joe leads a nonprofit that focuses on eliminating executive salaries, ensuring transparency, and directly supporting local families and nonprofits in Northeast Ohio. His initiatives extend to workforce development through the Skilled Labor Foundation, which aims to address the skilled trades shortage. Joe's vision includes early career exploration programs for middle school students, exposing them to the vast opportunities in skilled trades. By creating events that connect students, parents, and trades professionals, Joe and his team hope to shift the narrative around the trades, demonstrating that these careers are viable, lucrative, and vital to our economy. Through transparency, collaboration, and advocacy, Joe is transforming the perception of skilled trades, ensuring they are recognized for their significance and potential. Shifting the Trades Narrative To Build Better Communities Together, Shanna and Joe are tackling a shared challenge: changing the perception of skilled trades. Whether it's through gamifying trades to highlight their athleticism and skill or hosting community events that connect stakeholders, their work emphasizes the importance of collaboration and storytelling. As Andi Simon noted during the episode, this movement is about rebranding the trades, creating pride in these careers, and highlighting their critical role in community development. Why These Programs Matter In a time when workforce shortages are impacting industries from construction to healthcare, the work of innovators like Shanna and Joe is more important than ever. Their stories inspire action—whether it's supporting local tradespeople, exploring workforce development grants, or simply rethinking the career paths we advocate for in our communities. Takeaways for Listeners For Homeowners: Pigybak offers a way to support local tradespeople while collaborating with neighbors for affordable, community-driven solutions. For Advocates: One Step Ahead Ohio demonstrates how transparency, collaboration, and grassroots initiatives can drive change in workforce development. For Everyone: By raising awareness about the skilled trades, we can help young people see the potential for meaningful, successful careers outside of traditional college pathways. As I like to remind us, “Take your observations and turn them into innovations.” Shanna and Joe are perfect examples of this philosophy in action, using their insights to create solutions that empower individuals and strengthen communities. Catch the full episode to learn more about their inspiring work and discover how you can contribute to transforming the trades in your community.

I also dive into the eye conditions I can diagnose just by looking at someone, from ptosis to third nerve palsy, and reflect on the challenges patients with disabilities face during eye exams. Lastly, I get into all the equipment and machines we use in the eye doctor's office! Takeaways: LASIK Is Not for Everyone: Dr. Flannery advises against LASIK for patients over 50, explaining why cataract surgery provides better long-term vision improvement with fewer risks. Diagnosing Eye Conditions at a Glance: He lists common conditions ophthalmologists can spot immediately, including ptosis, strabismus, thyroid eye disease, and eyelid cancers, and discusses the potential dangers of ignoring these signs. The Power of Second Opinions: Dr. Flannery emphasizes the importance of getting a second opinion on expensive treatments like LASIK to ensure patients make informed decisions. Advocating for Patients with Disabilities: He highlights the need for ophthalmology practices to accommodate patients with disabilities, from portable slit lamps to alternative testing methods, and stresses that it's the doctor's responsibility to make the exam comfortable. Advocacy in Eye Care: Through humorous anecdotes, Dr. Flannery underscores the importance of self-advocacy in healthcare, encouraging patients to ask questions and ensure they receive the best possible care. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

As a medical oncologist working in a rural private practice in Australia, Dr. Christopher Steer expresses that one of the biggest challenges in cancer care is a limited workforce. Lacking personnel at every level of cancer care makes it difficult to provide high-quality, timely care, especially in a rural region. In this episode, Dr. Steer also mentions the importance of advocacy work in improving patient care. A particularly salient issue in Australia is the lack of coverage for cancer therapeutics by private insurance companies—which affects about 40% of patients with cancer in the country. Dr. Steer emphasizes the need for patients and providers alike to use their voices to make meaningful improvements in cancer care. Guest:  Christopher Steer, MBBS, FRACP Medical Oncologist, Albury Wodonga Regional Cancer Centre Associate Professor University of New South Wales Adjunct Professor John Richards Centre for Rural Ageing Research La Trobe University Quote:  “Adequate assessment yields appropriate treatment. Ask the patients. Personalize their care.

We speak with a Partner at an aviation practice who advocates for 737 MAX crash victims. In the news, we look at the Azerbaijan and Jeju crashes, Boeing's safety and quality-control plan update, Delta's plan for an AI-rich future, and V-22 Osprey catastrophic failure risks. Also, favorite flybys from listeners. Guest Erin Applebaum is a partner in the aviation practice at Kreindler & Kreindler LLP, specializing in high-stakes litigation for passengers injured or killed in general aviation accidents and commercial airline disasters.  Erin has devoted her career to advocating for justice and fighting for the advancement of aviation safety. She serves on the Plaintiffs' Executive Committee for the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 Boeing 737 MAX litigation. Erin is part of the legal team representing the 737 MAX crash victims in the federal criminal case against Boeing. Erin updates us on the status of the 737 MAX crash civil litigation. The criminal case is ongoing but likely nearing an end. Boeing was found in violation of the deferred prosecution agreement but the judge rejected the negotiated plea deal. The families of the victims are unhappy because the criminal case focuses on the single charge of defrauding the FAA, and not on those who lost their lives. Erin maintains a robust practice of litigating tort claims governed by the Montreal Convention, the global treaty governing international commercial flights. She teaches a popular aviation CLE course for other attorneys on how to litigate personal injury claims for international airline passengers. Erin has published a comprehensive update on the law governing international aviation claims in the highly respected legal journal of McGill University, “Annals of Air and Space Law.”  Erin serves as Co-Chair of the New York City Bar Association's Aeronautics Committee, Vice Chair of the American Bar Association's Aviation and Space Law Committee, and is an active member of the American Association for Justice and the International Aviation Women's Association.

The strong potential that Azerbaijan Airlines flight 8243 could have been the victim of military operations, as indicated by several governments including Russia and Azerbaijan, places the highest priority on conducting a thorough, transparent, and impartial investigation.
