Our jobsite boards are supposed to make things clearer but are they actually holding us back? In this episode, I break down the biggest mistakes the industry is making with field boards, from confusing “constraints” with “roadblocks” to locking critical look-ahead schedules inside the trailer where crews can't see them. You'll hear: Why our visuals for the Last Planner System are nowhere near where they need to be. The difference between constraints and roadblocks and why mixing them up kills flow. How to rethink board placement so information actually reaches the field. The setup I recommend for maximum clarity, collaboration, and implementation. If you want your boards to actually drive results instead of gathering dust, this one's for you.

At Black Hat USA 2025, Rupesh Chokshi, Senior Vice President and General Manager at Akamai Technologies, connected with ITSPmagazine's Sean Martin to discuss the dual realities shaping enterprise AI adoption—tremendous opportunity and significant risk.AI is driving a seismic transformation in business operations, with executive teams rapidly deploying proof-of-concept projects to capture competitive advantage. Yet, as Chokshi notes, many of these initiatives race ahead without fully integrating security teams into the process. While budgets for AI are expanding, funding for AI-specific security measures often lags behind, leaving organizations exposed.One of the most pressing concerns is the rise of AI bots—Akamai observes 150 billion such bots traversing networks daily. These bots scrape valuable digital content, train models on it, and, in some cases, replace direct customer interactions with summarized answers. The result? Lost marketing leads, disrupted sales funnels, and even manipulated product recommendations—all without traditional “breach” indicators.This is not just a security problem; it's a business continuity challenge. Organizations must develop strategies to block or manage scraping, including commercial agreements for content usage. Beyond this, the proliferation of conversational AI agents—whether for booking tickets, providing mortgage information, or recommending products—introduces new attack surfaces. Threat actors exploit prompt injections, jailbreaks, and code execution vulnerabilities to compromise these interfaces, risking both customer trust and brand reputation.Akamai's response includes capabilities such as Firewall for AI, providing in-line visibility and control over AI-driven sessions, and bot mitigation technologies that protect high-value content. By offering real-time threat intelligence tailored to customer environments, Akamai helps enterprises maintain agility without sacrificing protection.Chokshi's call to action is clear: every company is now an AI company, and security must be embedded from the outset. Boards should view security not as a budget line item, but as the foundation for innovation velocity, brand integrity, and long-term competitiveness.Learn more about Akamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guests:Rupesh Chokshi, SVP & General Manager, Application Security, Akamai | https://www.linkedin.com/in/rupeshchokshi/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com______________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Akamai: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/akamaiLearn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

In this session I talked with Dr Brett Mann about conflict and how it influences board dynamics and he had a lot of wisdom to share on this fascinating topic. This is part of our ongoing commitment from Parry Field Lawyers to hosting important conversations that help you all. Forward on or tag someone in it may interest?  Dr Brett Mann joined me in a conversation we need to have about conflict and board dynamics.  Brett shared his perspective as an educator and communication skills trainer and draw on his experience with governance to explain connection points as we cover:  - Looking at conflict - what do we mean by that?   - What do Chairs and all those on Boards need to consider when it comes to conflict?    - What role does our personal history around past conflict play in this?    - Is conflict ‘bad' or can it help unlock new ways of thinking?      - What are some ‘Rules of engagement' to manage conflict?   - How do you suggest we address three common, often unspoken, ‘minor conflicts' to improve board dynamics? Earlier seeds conversation with Brett on the impact of stress on our bodies: Dr Brett Mann on the impact of stress on our bodies, psychotherapy and 'somatisation' - Seeds Recent book on Careers with Impact: https://theseeds.nz/articles/the-circle-careers-with-impact/  Biography of Dr Brett Mann Brett is a medical educator and recently finished forty years as a general practitioner. He had a central role in the design of the New Zealand general practitioner communication skills training programme. This included introducing training on ‘dealing with conflict.' which, for the last eighteen years, has been an important part of the programme. He has given many seminars to doctors and provided many hours of one to one and group training in this area. Hat tip to Grant Adams for the suggestion.

Stefan Collini, FBA. Professor Emeritus of Intellectual History and English Literature, University of Cambridge.The Donald Winch Lectures in Intellectual History.University of St Andrews. 11th, 12th & 13th October 2022.In the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, universities expanded to include a wide range of what came to be regarded as academic ‘disciplines'. In Britain, the study of ‘English literature' was eventually to become one of the biggest and most popular of these subjects, yet it was in some ways an awkward fit: not obviously susceptible to the ‘scientific' treatment considered the hallmark of a scholarly discipline, it aroused a kind of existential commitment in many of those who taught and studied it. These lectures explore some of the ways in which these tensions worked themselves out in the last two hundred years, drawing on a wide range of sources to understand the aspirations invested in the subject, the resistance that it constantly encountered, and the distinctive forms of enquiry that came to define it. In so doing, they raise larger questions about the changing character of universities, the peculiar cultural standing of ‘literature', and the conflicting social expectations that societies have entertained towards higher education and specialized scholarship.Handout - Lecture 3: Syllabuses1. ‘“English”, including Anglo-Saxon and Middle English along with modern English, including what we ordinarily call the “dull” periods as well as the “great” ones, is an object more or less presented to us by nature.'2. ‘In the 1880s, an exciting duel between two great publishing houses brought the price of the rival National and World Libraries (Cassell's and Routledge's, respectively) down to 3d in paper and 6d in cloth. And not only were prices cut: the selection of titles was greatly enlarged, the old standbys - Milton, Pope, Cowper, Thomson, Burns, Goldsmith, and the rest - being joined by many other authors who had seldom or ever appeared in cheap editions.'3. ‘Sir John Denham (1615-1668) is familiar from the oft-quoted couplet in his poem of Cooper's Hill, the measured and stately versification of which has been highly praised. He died an old man in the reign of Charles II, with a mind clouded by the sudden loss of his young wife, whom he had married late in life. John Cleveland (1613-1659), author of the Rebel Scot and certain vigorous attacks on the Protector, was the earliest poetical champion of royalty. Butler is said to have adopted the style of his satires in Hudibras. Colonel Richard Lovelace (1618-1658) ....'4. ‘Poetry: More advanced poems from Chaucer (e.g. The Prologue), Shakespeare, Spenser, Milton, Pope, Wordsworth, Tennyson, or from selections such as The Golden Treasury; Shakespeare, (Histories, Comedies or easier Tragedies). Prose: Plutarch's Lives, Kinglake, Eothen, Borrow, Lavengro, Ruskin, Sesame and Lilies, Frowde [sic; ?Froude], selected short studies, Modern prose Comedies (e.g. Goldsmith and Sheridan), Selections from British Essayists (e.g. Addison, Lamb, Goldsmith), Macaulay, Essays or selected chapters from The History.'5. ‘In the 1930s favourite Higher Certificate set books and authors among the various Boards include: The Faerie Queene, Marlowe's Faustus, Bacon's essays, Sidney's Apologie for Poetrie, Hakluyt, The New Atlantis, Shakespeare, Chaucer, Milton, Lamb, Carlyle, Pope, Dryden, Scott and the Romantic poets. These texts and authors changed hardly at all between 1930 and 1950 (and represent a very similar situation to that of 1900-1910).'6. ‘An Honours Degree in English Language and Literature at present entails, in every University in England, some knowledge both of Latin or Greek at the outset, and of Old English later.'

What are the 4Qs? (1) Three favorite films. (2) An underrated film. (3) An overrated film. (4) A lesser-known film people should seek out. I first had Rosalie Alspach on the podcast in July of 2021 to discuss how her short film “The Hostess” rocked Film Invasion Los Angeles in 2020.                                                                                              Rosalie has generously offered her film expertise as a juror on the FI-LA/SOFF Filmmaker's Boards and recently returned to the podcast to discuss her crowd sourcing campaign for her upcoming project, "If We Be Friends".

What if our best intentions were doing more harm than good? In this compelling and unflinchingly honest conversation, global humanitarian consultant Jen Brewer, Vice President at Care for Life, challenges the deeply ingrained dynamics behind the so-called “hero complex,” also known as the white savior complex.Jen's lived experience—once showing up with “20 suitcases full of stuff to give” to Guatemalan communities—serves as the jumping-off point for this raw and revealing discussion about what real help looks like. With decades of international service work, Jen isn't interested in guilt trips or shame tactics. Instead, she invites a shift from paternalistic giving to genuine empowerment.Care for Life's Family Preservation Program in Mozambique provides a concrete model. Rather than offering handouts or short-term missions, they employ local staff to walk with entire communities through multi-year journeys of education, self-reliance, and sustainable growth. Jen makes clear: this isn't about swooping in and saving people—it's about listening, partnering, and trusting communities to lead themselves.“The only tweak we needed to make,” Jen explains, “was to train their doctor—rather than replace them.” That small shift encapsulates her broader message: good intentions aren't enough. Without humility, reflection, and a willingness to step back, well-meaning aid can unintentionally dismantle local economies, erode agency, and reinforce dependency.She contrasts acute and chronic interventions, urging nonprofits to ask hard questions: Are we helping during a crisis—or perpetuating a crisis mindset for long-term issues like poverty? Are donors prepared to support systemic change instead of photo-worthy quick fixes?The impactful discussion also surfaces the unspoken cultural programming behind American charity impulses—whether it's collecting coats for refugees or defaulting to physical donations over economic solutions. It's not that action is wrong, Jen argues. It's that the type of action matters—and often needs recalibrating.Jen is not interested in charity that centers the giver. Instead, she calls for philanthropy that trusts and equips communities to solve their own problems—on their own terms. As she puts it, “If I have a program that requires me to run it, it's a failure in progress.”Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Tiang Lim Foo, General Partner at Forge Ventures, and Jeremy Au discussed how Southeast Asia's tech and venture capital landscape is evolving through cycles of hype, correction, and AI-driven transformation. They unpack the eFishery scandal as a clearing event, reframe expectations around exits, and debate whether venture capital remains viable in a region where only one unicorn appears every four years. They explore the split between local and global-first startups, how AI is reviving SaaS through productivity gains, and why only a few VC funds will likely outperform. Tiang also shares how fatherhood shaped his leadership style and how delayed gratification builds better founders and better kids. 02:43 eFishery was a clearing event that exposed systemic gaps: The scandal's late-stage exposure revealed weaknesses in due diligence from seed to growth rounds. Tiang and Jeremy discuss how this singular event damaged investor confidence and might risk Southeast Asia facing a “lost decade” unless the ecosystem regains trust and transparency through police investigations. 08:20 Power law math must shift for Southeast Asia: Tiang explains why assuming a unicorn every year is flawed. With only one home run in Southeast Asia every four years, only two to four VC funds will hit top-tier returns in the region. He outlines how funds must underwrite exits between $100 million to $500 million and reverse-engineer ownership, dilution, and ticket size accordingly. 14:32 The ecosystem is splitting into two startup types: Baskit is an example of a hyper-local play focused on Indonesia's supply chain, while Mito Health began in Singapore and now earns more revenue in the US. Tiang shares how these two paths local capital efficiency versus global market scale require different underwriting logic and founder support. 21:04 AI is reviving SaaS by changing productivity math: SEA companies previously avoided SaaS due to low labor costs. Now, AI-powered tools like Vercel enable 10x productivity, allowing startups to reduce headcount and speed up delivery cycles. Boards and management are pushing AI pilots across conglomerates and tech companies. 26:08 ChatGPT's viral growth unlocked new software models: Tiang highlights how its intuitive UI and cross-language support made it usable with zero training. Unlike older tools like Evernote that required localization, ChatGPT's frictionless adoption signals a shift in how enterprise software scales globally. 29:03 AI is widening the power law: Some lean teams hit 15K to 20K MRR without fundraising. Others build toward massive ARR and attract large rounds. Tiang explains how AI-native startups either stay bootstrapped or scale explosively, polarizing outcomes and reshaping venture expectations. 37:47 Parenthood reshaped Tiang's leadership and time discipline: With two kids and a hard stop at 5:30 p.m. daily, Tiang structures board meetings around decisions, ensures clear agendas, and enforces pre-reading. He also draws parallels between parenting and investing both require influence, not control.

In a sector that thrives on purpose yet struggles with burnout, Paul Hanscom, Chief Growth Officer at Ewald Consulting, unpacks what happens when nonprofits become risk-averse after a crisis—and the surprising costs of playing it safe.This conversation is a powerful challenge to nonprofit leaders: don't retreat. The world is still changing—rapidly—and the organizations that will thrive are those who remember what got them through the last storm and are brave enough to face the next one head-on.Paul, a Certified Association Executive (CAE), begins with a reflection on 20 years of working with nonprofit boards and executives. His insights span not just the tactical, but the philosophical: What is lost when an organization, once agile and responsive during the pandemic, slips back into indecision and overly cautious governance?As Paul notes, “We've opened up people's eyes and created new opportunities… they don't want to go back to the way things used to be.” This sentiment fuels the entire conversation—a reminder that organizations grew stronger by being nimble, collaborative, and bold during the pandemic. Now, many are at risk of losing that momentum.Paul addresses executive burnout and decision fatigue. Boards are often leaning harder on Executive Directors and CEOs, who are caught between exhausted staff and cautious boards. As Paul puts it, “The turnover rates for executive directors have never been higher.” This reality points to the need to reassess organizational culture—not with fear, but with clarity and courage.This dynamic discussion considers the root of the sector's current malaise. Is it fatigue? Fear? Habit? The answer, Paul suggests, lies in building a risk-aware culture—where calculated experimentation is embraced, failure is allowed within reason, and data is balanced with decisiveness. He shares a compelling example of a board reluctant to shift from a “C” level initiative to an “A” one, simply out of fear they'd land at an “F.” The longer they waited, the more performance declined. It's a parable many in the sector will recognize.Perhaps the most valued idea comes toward the end: technology will change, funding will fluctuate, but what remains is the need for belonging. Paul makes the case that associations—and nonprofits writ large—are uniquely positioned to fulfill that human desire for connection, identity, and authenticity. “There's nothing quite like it elsewhere,” he says, “and the clearer we can communicate that to the world, the more we resonate.”Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Accreditation affects everything from financial aid to institutional viability—but many board members don't realize how directly they're accountable. In this episode, AGB's Natalie Boehm talks with AGB Consultant John Cavanaugh about what every board should know: why accreditation matters, how it connects to fiduciary duties, and what questions boards should be asking. Opinions expressed in AGB podcasts are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the organizations that employ them or of AGB.

In this deeply moving and high-impact episode of The ASHHRA Podcast, Bo and Luke are joined by Maureen O'Brien, CEO of the Global Wisdom and Leadership Forum, keynote speaker, cancer survivor, and self-proclaimed “Sales Sage.” Together, they explore the powerful intersection of leadership, sales, mindset, and purpose in healthcare HR and beyond.This is not your typical sales conversation.Maureen shares transformative insights on how HR professionals can build internal sales acumen to effectively pitch strategic initiatives to executives like CEOs, CFOs, and Boards.

It's budget season for nonprofits, and Dr. Stephanie Rose-Belcher, Chief Operating Officer at JMT Consulting, brings powerful insight to the table in this energizing session with host Julia Patrick. With over three decades of nonprofit sector expertise, JMT helps finance departments move from back-office cost centers to proactive strategy drivers—and Stephanie shows us how. Whether you're preparing for the fiscal year or completely rethinking how your nonprofit builds financial strategy, this episode offers more than insight—it gives you a roadmap.“We need to stop thinking of budgets as fixed and start treating them like what they really are—a living, breathing plan of action,” Stephanie begins. This instructive conversation lays out exactly how nonprofit leaders can reframe budgeting as a collaborative, mission-aligned process rather than a one-time spreadsheet task.The conversation opens by emphasizing the necessity of starting with a strategic plan. Before anyone touches a budget template, the entire leadership team needs to align on long-term goals, funding mechanisms, and sustainability models. Only then does budgeting begin—with intention and purpose.Stephanie urges nonprofit leaders to ditch the siloed approach. Budgeting shouldn't live with just the CFO. It must involve department heads, development teams, and the board to ensure full alignment between goals and resources. This transparency avoids the all-too-common tension that arises when program and development departments operate without a shared roadmap.One standout tip: Build not one, but three budgets—best case, expected case, and worst case. “This isn't just a COVID-era idea,” Stephanie asserts. Scenario planning is a best practice that strengthens resilience and foresight.Stephanie also shares how benchmarking and key performance indicators (KPIs) can become tools for empowerment, not just financial oversight. When done right, they spark innovation and teamwork. Monthly forecasting and open communication about KPIs help leadership make smarter decisions and enable course corrections before things go off track.But transparency must be handled with care. Stephanie offers practical advice on sharing financial realities without inciting panic. By pairing clear updates with actionable solutions, organizations can rally their teams around shared responsibility instead of fear.Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Credentialed veterinary technicians are pillars of modern veterinary care, but in most U.S. states, they're excluded from the very boards that govern their profession. This week on The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, break down why this lack of representation is not just outdated, it's dangerous for workforce development, public health, and the long-term sustainability of veterinary medicine. Beckie shares that only 20 U.S. states have even one credentialed technician on their state veterinary medical board, and even then, some are not voting members. She highlights how token roles can feel more performative than powerful, contributing to burnout, disillusionment, and underutilization of skilled professionals. Beckie draws attention to the legal implications, invoking precedents such as Reynolds v. Sims to question whether boards lacking proportional representation may be skating on thin constitutional ground. Together, our hosts challenge the assumption that only veterinarians should hold regulatory authority and make a compelling case for multidisciplinary governance that mirrors the evolution of healthcare in human medicine and nursing. This episode offers a blueprint for a more equitable and effective future, one where credentialed veterinary technicians have real influence, veterinary boards are more accountable, and the entire profession benefits from smarter, more inclusive leadership.

How do you lead when everything feels uncertain? Carina Santa Maria, CEO of Shelter Youth and Family Services, shared a bold, forward-thinking approach to nonprofit leadership in challenging times. From weathering funding impasses and the pandemic to rethinking donor relationships and pioneering new models of care, Carina proves that crisis can be a catalyst for transformation.Shelter-Inc.org, based outside Chicago, has served vulnerable youth and families for 50 years. Yet Carina candidly shares that despite its legacy, the organization has had to reinvent itself multiple times. Whether navigating Illinois' state budget freeze or pivoting during COVID-19, the common thread has been resilience backed by strategy. “We had to pivot and find the resources to make sure those services were delivered,” Carina says.But this conversation is about more than survival—it's about rising. Carina reveals how she and her team moved away from event-based fundraising and focused on cultivating deep donor relationships. The result? A record-setting $1.8 million raised in one year—without galas or trivia nights. This change didn't come easy, but it paid off with greater mission alignment and long-term investment from supporters.Carina also discusses the organization's next bold chapter: building Illinois' first DCFS-approved group home for child victims of human trafficking. What began as a donor's $50,000 trust experiment has blossomed into a $5 million initiative. “He told me, ‘I don't care if it works. I just want to see you think outside the box,'” Carina shares. It's a stunning example of what's possible when leaders are trusted and supported to innovate.The episode touches on advocacy, trauma-informed storytelling, and building credibility through impact rather than sentiment. Carina makes a compelling case for nonprofit leaders to demand their place at decision-making tables and challenge outdated narratives that nonprofits are less strategic than their corporate counterparts.For nonprofit professionals, this conversation is both a challenge and a blueprint. Carina reminds us that strategy, communication, and vision can carry organizations through uncertainty—not just intact, but stronger. 00:00:00 Welcome 00:01:27 What Shelter Youth and Family Services does 00:02:37 Navigating 24/7 operations and community needs 00:03:50 Impact of state and federal policy on services 00:04:44 Surviving Illinois' budget impasse and COVID 00:06:38 Managing donor fatigue and funding volatility 00:07:53 The importance of donor communication 00:09:43 Leveraging board and stakeholders as advocates 00:11:26 Advocacy and public perception of trafficking 00:12:59 Systems change as financial strategy 00:13:53 Transitioning from events to major gifts 00:17:08 Donor trust leading to bold innovation 00:20:25 Trauma-informed storytelling vs. strategic impact 00:24:10 Educating partners and demanding a seat at the table 00:26:20 Saying no and owning nonprofit leadership Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

By Adam Turteltaub As important as gaining access to the board is, using that time properly is even more crucial. Becky Rohr, Chief Compliance Officer and head of Investigations at Ericsson, will be sharing her insights and advice on this topic in her session “Board Reporting, Not Bored Reporting: Presenting to Boards and Other Senior Stakeholders by Using Data and Storytelling” at the 2025 SCCE Annual Compliance & Ethics Institute in Nashville. In this podcast and preview of her session, she advises that, even before entering the boardroom it's important to take the time to know your audience. Talking to the board, a board committee or senior executives is different since each has its own priorities. Be sure that what you say and show them speaks directly to their role. Remember, too, that the board is focused on the organization as a whole. She cautions that the board will feel obligated to read anything you send it. So, be sure to avoid overwhelming them and to focus on the larger issues that could materially affect the organization. When presenting data, don't just give them the raw numbers. Prepare a concise analysis that tells them what those numbers mean and what the key takeaways are. She found that a slide showing opportunities, challenges, highlights and lowlights in a simple quadrant graphic can be particularly useful. Dashboards, too, can be valuable, so long as every light on it isn't green. That's bound to raise suspicions. Take the time, too, to anticipate what questions they are likely to ask. She warns that boards tend to want to know how the organization stacks up against its industry peers. So, be sure to take the time to benchmark.
