Tom Ackerman talks to Chaim Bloom about the Cardinals approach coming out of the GM meetings in Las Vegas. Bloom outlines the focus on adding pitching through trades and free agency while balancing depth with player development. He discusses the team's need for more power, the value of stronger scouting and evaluation, and how uncertainty around the 2027 CBA shapes long term planning. Bloom emphasizes staying flexible and building a roster that positions the Cardinals for sustained success.

Warum wir innerlich zerrissen sind – und wie du wieder klar denken & fühlen kannst.Kennst du dieses Gefühl, wenn zwei Stimmen in dir gleichzeitig sprechen?Eine, die genau weiß, was du willst – und die andere, die dich zurückhält, kleinmacht oder verwirrt?Genau das ist Kognitive Dissonanz:Der Zustand, in dem deine Werte, Gefühle und Handlungen nicht mehr zusammenpassen.Es ist einer der stärksten inneren Konflikte, den ein Mensch erleben kann – und einer der schmerzhaftesten.In dieser Folge erfährst du:

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 6th study session on Evelyn Williams's Inadmissible Evidence: The Story of the African-American Trial Lawyer Who Defended The Black Liberation Army. We read our 4th biography of the year in recognition of the recent passing of Assata Shakur. The Katherine Massey Book Club read Assata's autobiography a decade earlier, where she reveals extraordinary details about her childhood and what led to her becoming an attempted counter-racist and member of the Black Liberation Army. Williams is Shakur's aunt and has her own fascinating experiences with the System of White Supremacy. Last week, Williams details being found in contempt and forced to served nearly two weeks in greater confinement. Too the dismay and fear of the prison staff, Williams took extensive notes of the prison abuse she observed and read non-fiction books during her confinement. The guards denied her access to clothes, toilet tissue and even water, but they allowed her plentiful access to cigarettes. Once done with her sentence, Williams attempted to contact do-gooder White attorney Robert Bloom to coordinate their defense strategy. Bloom had failed to respond to all of her previous inquires. When she attempted to speak with him at court, a black guard strangled and arrested her. The charges were easily dismissed, but it furthered her suspicions about Bloom's involvement in Assata's case. The White lawyer eventually admitted that his black male client had been pressured to testify against Assata for more lenient sentencing. Bloom refused to testify to all this in a court of law and under oath. #PrisonBreak INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

GRADING MY RECRUITMENT FORECASTS FOR 2025   Every year I write a long post making 20 predictions for the year ahead. This year, for the first time ever, I'm going to grade my predictions and see how I have got on   20 x Predictions for Recruiting in 2025   1. AI Assessment mainstreams; 50% of high volume hirers (more than 5000 hires per year) will have a solution in place by EOY. 2. ‘Skill based hiring' revives as employers describe deployment of AI assessment as commitment to SBH. %age of employers describing themselves as SBH increases 50%. 3. 2FA on job ads increases 400% as an attempt to suppress increased applicant flow. 4. Applications per job increase by 25% as AI-enablement mainstreams candidate side. 5. Big round of investment for AI voice interview vendors currently at Seed - $100M raised in this sector by EOY 2025. 6. Non-FTE vs FTE hiring increases by 10% in 2025. 7. Avg internal TA team goes 25% non-FTE. 8. Req load per recruiter increases 15%. 9. Percentage of solo TA function goes from 73% to 83%. 10. TA teams continue geographic dispersal - %age of TA teams with multinational component increases by 30%. 11. More companies decentralise talent acquisition - %age of employers where HM do outreach increases by 10%. 12. Candidate resentment stabilises - with 2% points either side of 2024 level. 13. ‘Chief Automation Officer' becomes an industry talking point in 2025, same as Chief Diversity Officer in 2020. 14. Speaking of DEIB, clear Atlantic divergence in 2025 - US explicit retrench, Europe implicit progress. 15. US vs UK economic integration deepens - %age of new UK based TA jobs from US employers increases 100%. 16. Global Staffing agencies revenue / profit down another 10% (profit warning again in Q1 2025). 17. But medium sized agencies / RPO stage mini bounce back as employers push more requirements out from denuded TA teams. 18. RecOps, Talent Intelligence roles decline 20%, EB roles decline 30%. People & Culture roles increase 15%. 19. Somebody Ubersises the legions of fractional TA's out there. Probably this is Indeed. 20. Over half of these predictions will be directionally incorrect, 20% will be absolutely incorrect.   What should the grading system be? I thinking a sliding scale A to E.   What should be the source of truth? That is where we will be bringing in experts from industry who can validate the claims.   It's going to be a good one folks.   Friday 14th November, 12pm GMT   Register by click on the green button (save my spot) and follow the channel here (recommended) to be noticed when we go live.     Ep 344 is sponsored by our friends Popp   Popp's AI recruitment platform amplifies what your team can do by effortlessly and instantly scaling your recruiting capacity.

Monster Beverage Corporation (NASDAQ: MNST) is without a doubt one of best two-way players in the beverage game, but it's hard to argue another “best defender in the industry” award isn't warranted after it recently announcing a new female-focused energy drink called FLRT will launch in early 2026. Offense and defense are terms that we're mostly familiar with when talking about sports, but these words are also applicable in business strategy. When a company is playing offense, its making investments that move the business forward. Alternatively, when a company is playing defense, its making investments to prevent potential downside. Offensive and defensive business strategies are equally important, but when you utilize them depends on numerous internal and external considerations...and accounting for these various marketplace dynamics could mean an offensive-heavy or defensive-heavy strategic gameplan would yield more short- and long-term value generation. So, who's the “King of Defense” in the beverage industry? If I was voting for this totally made-up award (again), I would give it to Monster Beverage Corporation just like when I examined the Reign Total Body Fuel and Reign Storm product innovations in February 2023. But instead of launching copycat energy drinks to defend against Bang Energy and CELSIUS, another highflying energy drink brand (or I guess brands) are currently on the Monster Beverage hit list. And while recent business performance has been relatively great at Monster Beverage, but that doesn't mean it's benefitted from every underlying growth driver powering the energy drinks market. Amid a slew of distribution partnerships, investments and acquisitions, the biggest success stories of the past several years have come to energy drink brands reaching toward female consumers. And the massive, continued achievements by Alani Nu and record-breaking early categorical results from Bloom Nutrition must've finally signaled “the future is female” to Monster Beverage because they just announced the upcoming launch of FLRT. Initially debuting in four flavors, FLRT will be positioned as a zero-sugar, female-focused energy drink brand. And while totally understanding (and respecting) the strategic defensive move from Monster Beverage, I didn't need to read the overwhelmingly negative comments from pundits to know FLRT wasn't going to be received well online. But since energy drinks are marketed as lifestyle brands that offer beverages with a functional benefit of caffeine, authenticity matters A LOT. So, while Alani Nu and Bloom Nutrition were each co-founded by female fitness influencers, Monster Energy is the epitome of such longtime mainstays of energy drink marketing like extreme sports and bikini models…that for some time suggested the only valuable categorical consumer were young males. And even if Monster Beverage attempted to develop female-focused energy drinks more than a decade ago, that overwhelmingly negative sentiment online obviously shows the brand identity of Monster Energy is so entrenched that consumers feel it seems grossly inauthentic to suddenly pivot now. Instead, if Monster Beverage wants to become liked by female consumers…it probably needs a more dramatic strategic plan. Thus, how about I leave you with this idea…Monster Beverage should acquire Olipop.

What if EMS educators placed as much focus on emotional intelligence, empathy, and reflective practice as they do knowledge and skills? Listen in as hosts Maia Dorsett, Hilary Gates and Rob Lawrence talk with Liz Harney, quality assurance leader at Baptist Health in Kentucky and former paramedic program director, to explore the often-overlooked affective domain of EMS education.  Liz shares how her frustration with the neglect of the affective domain inspired her to transform her own EMS instruction—bringing emotion, awareness, and humanity into every case study, scenario, and clinical rotation. From teaching students to manage bias and self-regulate under pressure, to modeling vulnerability and connection as educators, this conversation reveals how intentional focus on the affective domain can elevate not only patient care, but also the well-being and longevity of EMS clinicians. As Liz says, teaching the affective domain can help your students "choose the version of themselves they want to walk into a room." Ginger Locke highlights the episode's key points with her "Mindset Minute."
