Send us a textIn this candid conversation, hosts Elisa Pratt and Andrew Chamberlain challenge the relentless pursuit of new ideas and constant change in association management. They explore how organizations often chase innovative strategies without implementing existing solutions, leading to instability rather than growth. The hosts propose that in today's turbulent environment, associations might benefit more from stability and consolidation than continuous transformation. They advocate for focusing on "the donkey work" - the unglamorous but essential tasks of data management, resource optimization, and purposeful prioritization. The episode offers a refreshing counterpoint to motivational business literature, suggesting that success comes not from new philosophies but from execution, perspective, and the courage to do less and do it exceptionally well.Support the show

Eurasia Group's Mujtaba Rahman talks about the power shift taking place at the G-20 summit in Hamburg, Germany. Joe Deaux, a metals and mining reporter at Bloomberg, tells Pimm Fox how Americans will pay the price if Trump taxes foreign metals. Andrew Chamberlain, the chief economist at Glassdoor, discusses the June jobs report, trends in hiring and the dominance of the health-care sector on jobs.

Have economists become the latest casualties of the so-called "populist wave"? Some of them got their forecasts badly wrong over Brexit, and widespread fears over a US economy under President Donald Trump have given way to record highs in financial markets. Plus, of course, most economists completely failed to foresee the global financial crisis. It's led some to suggest that economics has become too detached from reality, that its experts have become too politicised and that the profession has lost much of its credibility. After all, Brexit and Trump voters ignored economists' dire warnings in their tens of millions. And, at a time of such huge political and technological change, is economics still a useful way to make sense of and predict events? Ed Butler is joined by three guests with their own visions for how economics should change: Wendy Carlin, professor of economics at University College London and leader of the CORE project to reform the undergraduate economics curriculum; Andrew Chamberlain, chief economist at recruitment website Glassdoor, in San Francisco; and Paola Subacchi, director of international economics research at the UK think-tank Chatham House.

Episode 3 Host: Ben Eubanks Guest: Dr. Andrew Chamberlain, Chief Economist at Glassdoor If you check out a company's profile on Glassdoor, one of the first things you see is the CEO approval rating. As an HR leader, this is a number that I was always concerned with as a signal for overall employee satisfaction. It's common to hear stories about CEO approval in the news, and all of us have an opinion about our current and past leaders at the top of the organizational hierarchy. But what goes into that measurement and how do company decisions affect the ratings? Until now, most of the information in this area has been ad hoc or anecdotal, but Glassdoor has been able to gather enough data to show true links between CEO approval and areas like culture, benefits, and work/life balance. In this episode of We're Only Human, Ben Eubanks interviews Dr. Andrew Chamberlain, Chief Economist at Glassdoor. Ben and Andrew discuss the links between CEO approval and executive compensation, what it means to be a founder versus an externally hired CEO, and what really matters to employees when it comes to rating the performance of their leaders.

This week In the Balance takes a look at the gender pay debate through the public arenas of sport and film. Off the stage and field, what lessons can be learnt in everyday business? Last month, world tennis number one Novak Djokovic ignited controversy by saying male tennis players should get more money than their female counterparts, is he right if the men’s game brings in more money? Over in tinsel town actresses like Charlize Theron and Jennifer Lawrence are shining a light on gender pay discrepancy – but is it vulgar to talk about money when you are already earning millions of dollars? The BBC’s Ed Butler hears from retired US goalkeeper Briana Scurry - one of the first women to participate in a woman’s paid professional league- Terry Lawler, Executive Director of ‘New York Women in Film & Television’ and labour market economist Andrew Chamberlain.
