Physician executive Steven Lane discusses his article, "Why interoperability is key to achieving the quintuple aim in health care." He explains that true interoperability is not just about technology but about aligning people, processes, and IT systems to allow patient information to flow seamlessly across all members of a care team. Steven argues that interoperability is one of the few factors in health care that can positively influence all five goals of the Quintuple Aim. He details how connected data leads to a better patient experience, improved clinical outcomes, lower costs, greater provider satisfaction, and better health equity. The conversation highlights that technology alone isn't a silver bullet; real progress depends on educating clinicians on how to use available data exchange tools and fostering a collaborative mindset. By embracing its full potential, interoperability can become a foundational element of a more modern, efficient, and equitable health care system.

"Just because you have a water management plan doesn't mean it's working." That's the hard truth Matt Freije, founder and CEO of HC Info, delivers in this episode of Scaling UP! H2O. As the architect behind LAMPS — a leading cloud-based platform for water management programs — Matt joins Trace Blackmore to explore the critical evolution of water safety, compliance standards, and real-world implementation challenges facing facilities in 2025. Beyond the Binder: Water Management Plans That Actually Work In an era of heightened awareness and shifting regulations, simply checking the compliance box is no longer enough. Matt walks us through the CDC data and ASHRAE findings that make a strong case for active, ongoing water management — not just documentation. Drawing from recent outbreak investigations, he explains why implementation, not content, is often the root failure. Trace and Matt discuss the widespread misconception that water management plans guarantee zero Legionella. They also address the real barriers preventing facilities from taking action — from budget limitations to internal roadblocks — and what water professionals can do to influence smarter, risk-based decisions. Regulatory Pressure, AI Integration, and What's Coming Next With ASHRAE 514, AAMI ST108, and ASSE 12080 gaining ground, the water industry is seeing increased scrutiny, especially in healthcare and hospitality facilities. Matt outlines how these evolving standards are transforming expectations and forcing a shift in accountability. The conversation takes a forward-looking turn as they explore the power of AI and aggregated analytics to optimize pathogen control. With 10,000 buildings in the LAMPS system, HC Info is preparing to offer data that could shape public health outcomes nationwide — a move that could redefine how we benchmark performance and interpret Legionella test data at scale. Culture, Purpose, and Long-Term Vision As a mechanical engineer with an epidemiology background, Matt also reflects on the human side of leadership — from building a values-driven team to embracing his faith as a cornerstone of decision-making. His message for water treaters is clear: “Either do it well or don't do it.” For facilities leaders, his advice is to stop fearing complexity and start leveraging the tools available — because water management done right can improve not just compliance, but health outcomes, asset longevity, and operational resilience. Conclusion This episode is a masterclass in how to future-proof your water safety strategy. With actionable insights, emerging technologies, and a clear call to accountability, Matt Freije reminds us that smart water management is both a technical responsibility and a moral imperative. Listen to the full conversation to understand how new standards, digital tools, and intentional leadership are shaping the future of water safety.

A half-hearted water management plan can do more harm than good.” “Most facilities still don't have a water management plan — and many don't even know what one is.” “Just because you had the conversation once doesn't mean it stuck. With Legionella, repeating the important things is critical.” “Analytics should make the problem obvious — you shouldn't need a PhD to interpret what your water data is telling you.” Connect with Matt Freije Email: mfreije@hcinfo.com Website: Legionella Water Management Plans LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattfreije Guest Resources Mentioned HC Info ASHRAE Standard 188 (Legionellosis: Risk Management for Building Water Systems) ASSE 12080 Certification: Professional Qualifications for Legionella Water Safety and Management Personnel Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health by Casey Means The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics by Daniel James Brown John Adams by David McCullough (Audiobook) John Adams by David McCullough (Paperback) Keep Your Love On: Connection Communication and Boundaries by Danny Silk (Paperback) The Bible (KJV) Scaling UP!

In many companies, the CFO is more important than the CEO. And the majority of private equity-backed CFOs are actually not up to par. In this episode, CJ is joined by Scott Engler, of LinkedIn fame, to explain why he believes these bold statements to be true. Scott is the CEO and co-founder of Sync Executive Partners and the co-founder of PE-Xcelerate. He has decades of experience studying, recruiting, and coaching CFOs. He shares insights on the evolving role of the CFO, the many hats they wear, and which they should prioritise. He gives advice on how to navigate your relationship with your CEO, your PE sponsor, and other stakeholders, and provides some social profiling hacks that can help. The conversation covers the benefits of upside-down reviews and why not having a recommendation can be the smartest move, before examining the best way to get a CFO job at a PE-backed company, and how to negotiate equity packages.—LINKS:Scott Engler on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottengler/Sync Executive Partners: https://www.syncexecutivepartners.com/PE-Xcelerate: https://www.pexcelerate.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.comLooking for Leverage: RELATED EPISODES:So You're Looking for a “Strategic” CFO?

In this week's episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO and Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, shares a timely and personal perspective on the cost - and value - of college education. With one child already in college and another preparing to go, Darryl walks listeners through findings from SoFi's “The Cost of Admission” report and offers four hard-hitting takeaways that every family should consider before signing on the dotted line. From real-life debt stories to the generational impact of poor financial decisions, this episode is a candid look at what too many Americans learn the hard way: how you pay for college matters just as much as where you go. Key Highlights: Why “ignorance is not an excuse” when it comes to student loan debt. The $365,000 medical school debt story - and what it teaches us. What most borrowers say they regret about college financing. The importance of making affordability a higher priority than reputation. How parents can help kids “think long term” when planning their future. Whether you're planning for your child's education or revisiting your own financial journey, this episode delivers the kind of clarity that cuts through the noise.

In this episode of UC Today, host Rob Scott sits down with Garth Landers, Director of Global Product Marketing at Theta Lake, to tackle one of the most urgent and overlooked risks in Unified Communications today: voice compliance.As enterprises migrate from legacy PBX systems to cloud-first platforms like Microsoft Teams Phone and Zoom Phone, many are leaving a dangerous gap in their compliance stack. Voice is no longer isolated — it's deeply integrated with chat, video, AI tools, and screen sharing — yet many compliance strategies are still built for a siloed world.Why watch this? Because as AI transforms UC platforms and vendors roll out new features at lightning speed, knowing how to govern all forms of communication data — including voice — is critical to avoid regulatory risks and future-proof your organization.Key discussion points include:Why voice compliance continues to lag behind messaging and video — and why that's a risk.The top challenges enterprises face when migrating voice to cloud platforms like Teams & Zoom.How to ensure consistent compliance across hybrid UC environments with multiple voice channels.How Theta Lake's solutions enable real-time risk detection and flexible archiving for voice, chat, video, and AI-generated content.Practical advice for IT and compliance leaders preparing for AI-driven voice features and virtual agents.Next Steps: If your organization is modernizing its UC stack or exploring AI-powered communication features, now is the time to review your compliance readiness. Explore how Theta Lake can help you bridge the gap and stay ahead of regulatory demands.

227: Pt. 2 Reset Your Marketing Mindset | Dr. Dave JonesInThis part two Dr. Dave, the hockey-player-turned-high-performance-coach, shares his proven strategy to rock your marketing…and your business & life.Be sure to catch his story in part one if you missed it.We dove into everything from mindsets to marketing to miracles, and I came out with my hair blown back (in the best way). Dr. Dave dropped his powerful R7 Framework, a game-changing process for success. Vision, strategy, branding—it's all there.Our convo was rich, real, and ridiculously practical. Whether you're launching a business, a ministry, or just trying to make sense of your next move—grab a pen, and let's go!BIO RECAP:Dave is a sports consultant who coaches CEOs, executives, professional athletes to help achieve their vision, by executing and developing mental skills training, and enhancing thought blocking techniques.He works with organization leaders on their strategy, execution and communication, and managing the gaps between employees and management.As a thought leader and highly motivated individualDave engages executive teams by consulting on analytics, oversight of talent initiatives, and one-on-one coaching. He helps leaders improve the effectiveness of their organizations, by utilizing practices such as strategic planning, mental skills training, organizational assessment, and team interventions.HIGHLIGHTS:1.Growth mindset = God's setup for breakthroughDr. Dave breaks it down: if you're not open to learning and growing, you're basically blocking the upgrade God wants to give you. A growth mindset says, “There's more!” A fixed mindset says, “I've arrived.” Spoiler alert: God loves working with people who still think there's more to discover.2. Reset your people, reset your pathThis one hits deep—if you don't like where you're headed, it might be time to check your circle. You're the average of your top three friends. Want to level up? Surround yourself with folks who are spiritually and financially rich, who think bigger and dream Kingdom-sized dreams.3. R7 is the roadmap for real resultsDr. Dave's “R7” framework isn't just a snappy name—it's a powerhouse process that includes steps like Reset, Destiny, Vision, Strategy, Brand, Communication, Prayer, and Action. It's doing the work of digging that ends up with a rock-solid foundation for your life and business.4. Biblical principles are baked into the blueprintProverbs 15:10, “In the multitude of counsel there is wisdom,” isn't just good advice—it's part of the strategy. Dr. Dave works with Christian leaders and makes sure God's Word is woven into the work. Pride is out, humility and wise counsel are in.5. Don't Skip the Strategy—Creative Alone Won't Cut ItJumping straight into branding and creative assets without first locking in your vision and strategy is like lighting a match in a windstorm. It flares up fast... and burns out just as quick. Want long-term impact? Slow burn with a solid strategy.6. Want to Cut Through the Noise? Use Hero vs. VillainWe're swimming in 17,000+ impressions a day (yikes), and our attention span is toast. To break through, create a clear narrative. People connect emotionally when there's a hero and a villain. Bonus tip: the hero doesn't need to be perfect, but the villain better be memorable.7. Your Brand Isn't What You Say—It's What They FeelYour brand isn't just your logo or color palette. It's every touchpoint—email, website, tone of voice—all rolled into one emotional experience. People either feel a connection... or they don't. The goal? Be intentional, or your brand will still say something, just maybe not what you want.8. Make Them the Hero—You're the GuideMajor mindset shift: You are not the hero of your brand story. Your audience is. Whether it's a customer, donor, or guest—they need to feel like the center of the journey. Your job? Be their guide. Think Yoda, not Luke. Be the Obi-Wan of your niche.9. Pray, Think, and Taste-Test Your VisionDon't just slap your mission, vision, and brand together and call it done. Like chili, it might look good in the pot, but does it taste right? Take a step back, pray over it, reflect, and ask, “Lord, is this really what You want me to cook up?” (Bonus: Ask yourself—should I start, stop, or continue?)10. God Might Pull the Plug—and That's OkayEven after investing time and money, sometimes God just says “Nope.” Dr. Dave reminds us: that's not failure—it's divine redirection. You're not alone if a seemingly great opportunity gets shut down. It happens to the best of us.11. Ask the Big 5-Year QuestionBefore jumping in, ask God: “Is this what I'm supposed to be doing for the next 5 years?” This isn't just a weekend project. If you're going to commit, make sure heaven's backing it.12. Don't Just Dream—Test It OutA/B testing isn't just for marketers. Send your ideas into the wild—get feedback, observe reactions, tweak and repeat. Whether it's formal surveys or just gauging real responses, testing brings clarity.13. Take Action (But Not First!)Action is step 7, not step 1. Don't jump the gun. Lay the foundation first, then move. Faith isn't passive—yes, you've got to move—but not without preparation. God can move a parked car, but He'd rather you turn the ignition.LINKS for DR.
