In B2B, people buy from people, even when it's a corporation selling through a corporation to another corporation. In this episode of Content Amplified, Richard Hutton, Associate Vice President of Demand Generation at Sharp, explains how his team shifted from slick, highly produced product content to human-led stories, and why engagement went up when they did. Richard shares the standout example: instead of the usual flying-through-a-galaxy corporate video at the NSCA business leadership conference, his team asked sellers across the country to film one-minute clips on their phones, stitched them together, and watched the room light up recognizing familiar faces. He also takes on the "marketing's not my job" objection with a simple reframe (everyone is in sales), makes the case for case studies built around human outcomes instead of specs, explains why 20 great conversations at a regional event beat 3,000 badge scans at a big trade show, and shares his brand-guardrail philosophy: skip the 16 pages of rules and just tell people to make good choices. If you want your whole team creating content that actually sounds like them, this episode shows you how.About RichardRichard Hutton is the Associate Vice President of Demand Generation at Sharp, where he leads a channel-oriented team marketing both through partners and to end clients in the audio visual industry. He joined NEC Display Solutions ten years ago and moved to Sharp when it purchased NEC through a joint venture, and before that he spent years running channel marketing at Samsung. His path into marketing was anything but typical: he started out as a psychiatric nurse and music promoter before landing in IT distribution, where he worked through purchasing, sales, and marketing roles. He still loves music.Show NotesConnect with Richard on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-hutton-1407915/Text us what you think about this episode!

You can detect radiation in seconds. Understanding what it does to the human body can take far longer. This gap defines a leading challenge of radiation biology, the field that studies how radiation interacts with living systems. In this episode, Dr. Marc Mendonca, Associate Vice President of Research at the University of Central Florida, joins host Dr. Arun Seraphin to discuss what problems radiobiologists are attempting to solve, and how these problems shape the realities of warfighters, first responders, cancer patients, astronauts, and civilians. The conversation highlights persistent limits in assessing how much radiation an individual has actually absorbed, how their body will respond, and why so many sectors rely on better understanding these effects. It also examines the operational strain created by the “walking well” in mass exposure scenarios. Mendonca outlines key research gaps in the field, including radiation's influence on the immune system, the mechanisms behind radiation-induced cancer, the need for effective post-exposure mitigation, and the development of faster, field-ready diagnostic tools. Watch ETI's “Tech 101: Radiation Biology” seminar: https://www.ndia.org/events/2026/5/19/tech-101-radiation-biology  For updates on our content, sign up for our weekly mailer: https://www.emergingtechnologiesinstitute.org/sign-up 2026 NDIA Emerging Technologies for Defense Conference and Exhibition September 8-10, 2026, at the Walter E.

How do healthcare organizations continue innovating while protecting some of the most sensitive data in existence? Recorded at Cisco Live, this episode features Kevin Ludwig, Associate Vice President of Information Technology at XiFin, and Jeff Kronlage, CEO of CrossConnect Engineering.  Together, they provide a behind-the-scenes look at the technology infrastructure supporting healthcare billing, laboratories, pharmacies, and medical providers, where reliability, security, and automation all play a central role in keeping critical processes moving. During our conversation, Kevin explains how XiFin helps healthcare organizations process and validate complex billing workflows while reducing manual intervention wherever possible. With healthcare providers facing growing financial pressure, improving efficiency has become increasingly important, but never at the expense of security or data protection. We explore how cyber threats continue to shape decision-making across healthcare technology and why organizations are looking beyond traditional security architectures. Kevin and Jeff share their experience as one of the earliest adopters of Cisco's smart switching technology, discussing how distributed security models can simplify operations, reduce complexity, and help teams manage growing demands without constantly adding new layers of infrastructure. The conversation also examines AI adoption inside healthcare environments. While organizations are eager to benefit from automation and AI-powered capabilities, Kevin explains why guardrails, governance, and customer trust remain top priorities. We discuss the balance between innovation and risk, the importance of observability, and how teams are approaching AI with both enthusiasm and caution. Along the way, Jeff offers an insightful perspective on reducing decades of accumulated technical debt, challenging long-standing assumptions about network security, and creating simpler ways to manage increasingly complex environments. What emerges is a discussion about much more than technology. It's a conversation about trust, responsibility, and helping healthcare organizations deliver better outcomes through smarter systems and better operational decisions. If you're interested in healthcare technology, cybersecurity, AI adoption, or the future of enterprise infrastructure, this episode provides valuable insights from leaders working at the intersection of all four. As healthcare becomes increasingly connected and data-driven, how should organizations balance innovation, security, and trust?

Patient safety is often associated with what happens inside the exam room, operating room, or hospital bedside. But what if one of the greatest threats to patient safety occurs long before a patient ever receives care?In this thought-provoking episode of All-Access Pass, Elizabeth Woodcock sits down with Dr. Victor Hassid, Associate Vice President of Access Services and Professor of Plastic Surgery at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, to discuss his groundbreaking JAMA article, Patient Safety Begins with Access. Together, they explore the powerful argument that delays, barriers, and failures in patient access should be viewed not simply as operational challenges, but as patient safety events. Dr. Hassid shares how fragmented referral processes, scheduling barriers, authorization delays, and care coordination failures can directly impact diagnosis, treatment, and patient outcomes. The conversation also examines the concepts of visibility, accountability, high reliability organizations, and the critical role of data in identifying and preventing access-related harm.Tune in to hear discussions on patient safety, access-related harm, high reliability principles, referral and scheduling barriers, access performance metrics, patient advocacy, health equity, and the future of treating access as a core component of quality and safety in healthcare.

 In this special live-recorded episode of Tales from the 10th, a panel of legal experts, landowners, and state officials examines the Tenth Circuit's landmark decision in Iron Bar Holdings v. Cape, the case that brought national attention to "corner crossing." While the court held that crossing between federal public lands without touching private property is lawful under specific circumstances, the discussion explores the many practical, legal, and policy questions the decision left unresolved from state trust lands and damaged survey markers to trespass liability and future legislative action. Moderator: Professor Alan Romero, Senior Associate Dean at the University of Wyoming College of Law and Director of the Rural Law Center. Presenters: David Willms, Associate Vice President, Public Lands at the National Wildlife Federation, and Adjunct Professor at the University of WyomingJim Magagna, with the Wyoming Stock Growers Association David Dewald, Deputy Attorney General, Water & Natural Resources Division.

Food crises are not anomalies — they are recurring and predictable. COVID-19, Ukraine, the Middle East conflict, and now El Niño forming on the horizon: each shock travels the same transmission channels, driving up input costs, and hitting small-scale farmers first and hardest. These farmers produce a third of the world's food, including up to 70% of the food in Africa, and they operate with thin margins. When input costs spike, production falls, and what begins as a price crisis quickly becomes a hunger crisis, then a stability crisis. The question is no longer whether the next shock is coming. It is whether the world will respond after it hits or invest before it does. 100% of IFAD investments are directed toward the poorest and most marginalized people. In 2024, IFAD's US$7bln ongoing portfolio reached approximately 95 people, with the objective of increasing productivity and incomes, access markets, employment, and building resilience to shocks. IFAD President Alvaro Lario makes the case to increase long-term investment in food system transformation and resilience at the "first mile" — the rural communities where food is produced. He also addresses the EU's role, and how Ireland's forthcoming EU Presidency can help turn ambition into delivery. Alvaro Lario is President of the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). IFAD was established in the 1970s in response to a global food crisis. It is the world's fund for transforming agriculture, rural economies, and food systems. Lario is a seasoned international development finance leader, he has more than 20 years of experience across academia, private sector asset management, the World Bank Group and the United Nations, including as Associate Vice-President of Financial Operations at IFAD.

What happens when an organization says all the right things about culture, puts the values on the wall, launches the initiative, and nothing actually moves? Carlee Wolfe has spent more than two decades inside that gap, and her answers will challenge how you lead. Carlee Wolfe is Associate Vice President of Leader Development and Organizational Effectiveness at Hyatt Hotels, where her work sits at the intersection of global leadership, talent strategy, and culture.

In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, Tony Schueth, CEO of Point-of-Care Partners (POCP), welcomes Pooja Babbrah, Executive Vice President of Strategy and Industry Alignment at NCPDP, and Anna Taylor, Associate Vice President of Population Health and Value-Based Care at MultiCare Health System and Steering Committee member of the HL7 Da Vinci Project, for a discussion on the relationship between standards development and policymaking.  Using the CMS “Interoperability Standards and Prior Authorization for Drugs” Proposed Rule (CMS-0062-P) as a backdrop, the conversation explores how standards communities, implementation accelerators, pilot programs, and industry collaboration influence healthcare interoperability long before requirements appear in federal regulations. Tony opens the discussion by asking how organizations should think about the relationship between standards development and policymaking today. Pooja and Anna explain that organizations such as the HL7 Da Vinci Project and NCPDP Standards are often viewed as technical standards bodies, when in reality they serve as collaborative forums where providers, payers, vendors, pharmacists, regulators, and other stakeholders work through real-world operational challenges. The conversation then shifts to the value of participating early. Tony asks what organizations miss when they wait for final rules before becoming involved. Anna discusses the operational, strategic, and financial advantages organizations can gain by participating in standards development activities, implementation guide development, pilots, testing events, and implementation communities. As part of that discussion, Tony and Anna touch on the growing body of production implementations supported by Da Vinci. Organizations interested in understanding how these implementation guides are being deployed across the industry can explore the Da Vinci In-Action Implementation Tracker, which documents real-world adoption efforts and implementation progress. Pooja expands on the importance of creating opportunities for broader industry participation. She describes NCPDP Collab, an interactive forum open to both members and non-members that provides a venue for discussing workflow challenges, implementation barriers, and emerging industry needs before formal standards development begins. The discussion naturally progresses into the CMS “Interoperability Standards and Prior Authorization for Drugs” Proposed Rule (CMS-0062-P), which directly references standards and implementation approaches developed by both NCPDP and Da Vinci. As Tony guides the conversation toward implementation, Anna discusses how Da Vinci's collaborative testing model and initiatives such as Trebuchet help organizations evaluate interoperability workflows in real-world settings before widespread adoption. The discussion then turns to one of the central themes of CMS-0062-P: the convergence of pharmacy and medical benefit workflows. Pooja explains that while patients and providers simply want access to treatment, healthcare organizations continue to operate within separate medical and pharmacy benefit structures. She argues that future interoperability efforts must focus less on the underlying standards and more on creating workflows that deliver a seamless experience for providers and patients regardless of where coverage resides. Building on that theme, Tony asks how healthcare organizations should think differently about workflow design. Drawing on her background in human factors engineering, Anna argues that healthcare has historically allowed technology to dictate workflows rather than designing technology around how people actually work. She advocates for starting with desired outcomes and user experience, then working backward to determine how standards, automation, and technology can support those goals. The conversation then moves to trust, adoption, and data quality. Tony observes that interoperability is no longer simply about moving data but about delivering the right information at the right time and within the right workflow. Anna discusses the importance of consistency and reliability in building trust, while Pooja shares examples of how incomplete implementations can undermine provider confidence even when standards and technology are technically available. Together, they argue that adoption depends as much on usability and trust as it does on technical capability. Returning to CMS-0062-P, Tony asks where organizations should focus their feedback beyond timelines and compliance concerns. Both guests encourage stakeholders to look closely at the broader strategic questions embedded throughout the proposed rule, particularly the requests for information that may signal future policy priorities. Rather than focusing solely on implementation challenges, they encourage organizations to use the comment process as an opportunity to help shape how healthcare workflows should function in the future. The episode concludes with Tony's signature question: what should healthcare stakeholders think differently about or start doing differently tomorrow? Pooja highlights the expanding role pharmacists can play in care coordination, medication management, and prior authorization workflows, arguing that pharmacists remain an underutilized resource within the healthcare ecosystem. Anna closes with a call for broader participation across healthcare, encouraging providers, employers, patients, vendors, and other stakeholders to engage with standards communities and implementation efforts. She emphasizes that meaningful progress happens when stakeholders move beyond identifying problems and actively participate in building solutions. Throughout the discussion, Tony reinforces a central theme: the future of healthcare interoperability is not being shaped solely through regulation. It is shaped through the collaboration, testing, implementation, and problem-solving taking place every day within standards organizations, implementation accelerators, pilot programs, and stakeholder communities. Organizations that want to influence the future of healthcare should not wait for final rules to arrive. They should participate in the conversations that help create them.

Send us Fan MailLeadership in healthcare simulation doesn't always come with a title or a roadmap. One day you're an educator or clinician, and the next day you're responsible for staffing, budgets, accreditation prep, outcomes, and the long list of “Can you also…?” requests that land on a simulation program. We sit down with two leaders who have lived that reality and built thriving programs anyway: Dawn Swiderski, Associate Vice President of Simulation Services at the Carolina Simulation Center at Atrium Health (now Advocate Health), and Cheryl Camacho, Director of Simulation and Outreach at Nationwide Children's Hospital.We dig into the shift from the SSH Directors Section to the Simulation Program Leadership Section and why that change is more than a rebrand. It's a move toward inclusion for people leading without the “director” label, whether you're new to simulation, stepping into management unexpectedly, or guiding a program through influence instead of authority. Dawn and Cheryl share how they listen to member feedback and turn it into practical support that actually matches what leaders need in the moment.You'll also get a clear tour of what's available through SimConnect: quarterly webinars, section meetings, and the highly popular couch conversations where members bring burning questions like simulation ROI, accreditation, costing models, policies, staffing allocation, and how to prove value with metrics and KPIs (including examples like Power BI). We talk about the underused SimConnect library filled with templates, forms, job descriptions, and recorded sessions that help you move faster, especially if you're tired of reinventing the wheel.If you lead any part of clinical simulation education, patient safety simulation, or simulation operations, this one is built for you. Subscribe, share it with a simulation colleague, and leave a review with the leadership topic you want tackled next.Innovative SimSolutions.Your turnkey solution provider for medical simulation programs, sim centers & faculty design.

For people waiting for a lung transplant, every phone call could be life changing. But too many donor lungs are still turned down. In this episode of Tomorrow's Cure from Mayo Clinic, host Cathy Wurzer explores how ex vivo lung perfusion, or EVLP, is helping turn a “no” into a “maybe” and sometimes a “yes” for patients who are running out of options. Cathy talks with Mayo Clinic cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Jack Haney and Brandi Zofkie, Associate Vice President at Lung Bioengineering, about how EVLP keeps lungs alive outside the body so experts can better evaluate and sometimes improve them before transplant. They discuss real patient impact, the logistics of making this technology available to more centers and the honest challenges that still remain. Listeners will hear why this innovation matters now and what it could mean for the future of lung transplantation, from expanding the donor pool to offering more second chances to breathe.

Today we're taking a wide angled look at the state of higher education marketing, an industry under increasing pressure to drive enrollment, prove impact, and adapt to rapidly changing student expectations, all while navigating complex institutional realities. From how prospective students discover and evaluate schools, to how institutions balance brand, performance, and long-term growth, higher ed marketing is evolving fast, and marketing teams are being asked to deliver greater impact amid evolving expectations and constraints. To unpack what's really changing, what's working, and where institutions need to evolve next, I'm joined by two leaders with deeply connected, but distinct perspectives. From the client side, we're excited to welcome Dave Gladson, Associate Vice President of Marketing at Point Loma Nazarene University. Dave has been leading PLNU's marketing evolution firsthand, balancing internal priorities, enrollment goals, and the shift toward more measurable digital-first strategies. And joining us from Red Door Interactive is Mallory Collins, director of Brand Strategy and Creative. Mallory has partnered with higher education institutions across the country to help them navigate enrollment pressure, evolving student behavior, and the challenge of aligning performance marketing with long-term brand building. She's also the former business manager on the PLNU account, giving both her category wide perspective and firsthand institutional experience. Together we'll explore what's shifting in higher ed marketing, what institutions are getting right, and where real opportunity lies ahead.
