Many B2B companies make half their profitable revenue from just three percent of their customers, yet don't recognize the significance of these accounts, nor invest appropriately in them. Account-Based Growth introduces a comprehensive framework for improving internal alignment and external engagement with these vital few. It contains bullet-pointed takeaways at the end of each chapter and a comprehensive checklist to help you improve your company's approach to its most important customers. Each framework element is brought to life through viewpoints from industry experts and case studies from leading organizations including Accenture, Fujitsu, Infosys, SAP, Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Telstra. About the Author: Bev Burgess is passionate about the critical role marketing can play in accelerating business growth.  Her specialism is the marketing and selling of business services, built through a combination of postgraduate study and the privilege of working with 40 of the world's most influential firms, primarily in the technology and professional services sectors.  Bev's background includes senior marketing roles at British Gas, Epson, and Fujitsu, and she was a Senior Vice President at ITSMA, where she led the global ABM Practice and ITSMA's European operations for many years. Bev first codified ABM as a marketing strategy while managing director of ITSMA Europe in 2003. Today Bev is a Founder and Managing Principal at Inflexion Group, delivering thought leadership, consulting, and training to companies around the world that are designing, developing, and implementing account-based growth programs.  Bev holds an MBA in strategic marketing and a BSc Honours degree in business and ergonomics.

Both editions of that book were featured on The Marketing Book Podcast episodes 117 and 373 with Dave Munn.

Dr Jen Matthews has pioneered the application of metabolomics to unravel the metabolic interactions underpinning coral health and resilience to environmental change.Increasing environmental pressures, such as increased sea temperatures, are causing the catastrophic loss of coral cover around the globe, including the largest coral reef ecosystem in the world: the Great Barrier Reef. So, it's unsurprising we are starting to see corals migrate poleward to cooler waters. In fact, Sydney has recently become home to a new subtropical coral. This raises a significant question: Could Sydney be a refuge for corals from the warming GBR? A Human Frontier Science Programme Fellow at the University of Technology Sydney, Jen holds a PhD in Marine Biology (Dean's list, Victoria University Wellington), a MRes (Imperial College London) and a BSc (Honours, Bath University). Jen is dedicated to finding solutions to current environmental challenges, targeting local (e.g. tropicalization of coastal NSW), national (e.g. Great Barrier Reef restoration), and global topics (e.g. microplastic pollution).Her contributions are internationally recognised, being invited to join the prestigious Coral Bleaching Research Coordination Network, and the International Metabolomics Society Early-Career Members Network. In 2009, she founded ‘Big Blue Conservation', a not-for-profit organisation protecting and restoring beautiful reef ecosystems in Thailand. Her industry engagement while developing the innovative microplastics removal tool, funded by Lord Mayor's Charitable Foundation Seed Innovation Grant, has shown her to be an emerging STEMprenuer. Despite her early-career stage, Jen has secured $300,000 in competitive funding, produced 14 publications and actively advocates for effective science communication and women-in-STEM, through programs such as SoapboxScience Sydney 2019-2020.

Ali Moore is a therapist focused on helping people – especially young girls and women – face and work through the pain, anxiety, stress and depression they face that holds them back in life. Her work was born of her own struggle after losing a child and pushing harder in her career to avoid facing the pain...until that approach stopped working. Ali is an Advanced Member of The Association  for Evidence Based Psychotherapists and is supported by the British Psychological Society. Ali also holds an advanced Diploma in Coaching as well as being accredited in Mindfulness Based Practise, a BSc Honours in behavioural psychology and a member of the British psychological society. She is a regular expert contributor to media such as BBC3 Counties , The Daily Express and Thrive Global and guest expert for Woman's Own and Sheerlux magazines. Ali is the author of best seller Reconnect Your Life - based on her successful Reconnection Programme. Key Points from the Episode with Ali Moore: Ali is a psychotherapist and coach, primarily focused on women, and helping them deal with anxiety, stress and self-worth So many people today feel lost, stressed and unsure of who they are So much of this comes from comparing ourselves to others, lacking compassion for where we are, and then comparing ourselves to others worse off to try to find a way to feel better, which isn’t healthy Ali trained later in life for her current work because of her own experience creating a need to change her life She had a good job, two daughters, and then lost her son, which lead to a divorce Her career kept going as she got promoted, lost weight, found her now-current-husband and seemed to be doing great After the death of her son, she had gone back to work and her life quickly to move forward, which is what everyone said she should do She pushed really hard to get through She got to a point where she had pushed too hard, and broke It lead to a story she calls, “There once was a chimp” She was getting her girls ready for school She had this random idea that a chimpanzee had escaped from the zoo, and was on the loose She almost called the school to tell them she was keeping her kids home because of this wild chimp, but thinking that thought broke the cycle so she could send her kids to school Unfortunately, the chimp stayed with her, and she found herself checking for him randomly throughout her life – in hotel rooms, in her car, etc This went on for 2 1/2 years, and the anxiety behind it claimed her second marriage, too It got to the point where she knew she needed help, and started by turning to a hypnotherapist who she thought would just make it all go away, which isn’t actually how it works What it actually did was teach her that the way she had dealt with things hadn’t actually dealt with things A big part of the breakthrough was understanding that it’s ok to talk about it Other people are like you – you aren’t the only one who has been through something or not be ok She’s now been a therapist for the past decade, and even found herself going back to the pushing approach, looking for external validation, doing more, etc We can get caught up in the “What’s next” of it all, which Ali was living and working in for years, so moving past that approach can take much repeated, consistent focus and effort What has helped her refocus her effort is to think less about the outward achievements and more about individual impacts she gets to have on people in changing their lives She always asks, “What are you most afraid of?” That fear is what holds us back because we are afraid of what we will be when that thing isn’t there anymore “Yes, things happened to me, they are horrible, but I’m responsible for who I am now, and that’s a big thing” Working with teenage girls especially has been rewarding for Ali, and takes parents who are willing and interested enough to want to seek help for their kids and have the means to get them help But not every parent has the interest, and many who do lack the means, so Ali wanted to solve for both of these constraints Since she herself struggled as a teen, and raised two girls and as a step-mother to another, she decided to setup a foundation called “BeMoore” They go into schools to connect with girls to talk about your position in society, how you feel about yourself, how things like social media impact you, etc They’ve had to change tact given the situation with COVID-19 to get more personalized, training more people so they can do 1-on-1 work since the group interactions are harder to do We talked about the pandemic and lockdowns have impacted so much of our daily life, but that can include good things, like getting people to spend time together as a family as they hadn’t been doing, riding bikes again, etc Ali is building out the foundation more, and also started a community for women to come together, share, support and have common values She’s also busy with her private practice, and is working on her next book Links: Website: www.BeMoore.uk Book: Reconnect Your Life Facebook: bemoorereconnectyourlife Twitter: BeMoore_AMoore Instagram: bemoorereconnectyourlife Subscribe to The Do a Day Podcast Keep Growing with Do a Day Get Bryan's best-selling first book,Do a Day, which is the inspiration for this show and can help you overcome your greatest challenges and achieve in life.

Global Health Perspectives with Derek Yach

Tikki joined the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy after 13 years at the World Health Organization (WHO) in Geneva, Switzerland as Director of its Research Policy & Cooperation department. In this capacity, he worked with countries to strengthen their national health research systems, developed mechanisms and initiatives to improve the efficiency and transparency of global health research, and helped formulate an Organization-wide research policy. After following a traditional academic career path in Malaysia, his experience at the WHO convinced him that the generation of knowledge must be accompanied by its translation and utilization, and the bridging of the ‘know-do' gap into effective and sustainable public policies in order to improve the health of humankind, especially in the developing world. In turn, and in order to ensure its effective implementation, effective public policies must exist in a climate of good global governance as health in a globalized world is increasingly becoming a trans-national issue which knows no borders. Tikki's main research and academic interests are in infectious diseases, the impact of genomics on public health, global health governance, national health research systems, knowledge translation, research transparency & accountability, and the use of evidence in health policy development. In these areas he has published more than 200 scientific articles and 12 books, edited volumes and reports. This includes several major WHO reports, includingGenomics and World Health (2002), the World Report on Knowledge for Better Health (2004) and a History of Research in WHO (2010). His involvement with the LKY School of Public Policy began in 2009 through the ST Lee Project on Global Health Governance. Tikki holds a BSC (Honours) and PhD degrees from the Australian National University in Canberra, Australia in the fields of biochemistry and microbiology/immunology. He is a Fellow of the Royal College of Pathologists (UK), American Academy of Microbiology (USA), Institute of Biology (UK) and the Academy of Medicine of Malaysia. He was the Founding Editor of Health Research Policy & Systems and the Asia-Pacific Journal of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology.

It could cost tax payers billions of dollars to clean up the 100,000 plus abandoned oil and gas wells throughout Alberta. However, if used as geothermal energy, many of these wells can be an asset instead of a liability. Abandoned wells can cost $300,000 each to reclaim. Converting those same wells to operate as geothermal greenhouses may be much cheaper and more cost effective. The Living Energy Project at the Leduc #1 Energy Discover Centre is converting an abandoned oil well to capture geothermal energy. This energy will be used to heat the building and an 8000 square-foot greenhouse. Provided that Government gives the green light, this could be the first time in Canada's history that a disused well will be used as a tool for agricultural production, which in turn could help increase local food security and make it possible for farmers to profit. The potential for Canadian geothermal greenhouses are extensive. Clean local heating and electric energy for smaller and remote communities are also possibilities, utilizing disused wells. These benefits highlight the potential of creative solutions and job creation through geothermal energy. Despite Alberta's great geological potential and available technology and workforce for producing geothermal energy, there is currently no framework permitting its development. In order to develop policies for geothermal, there must be agreement between Government, industry and the public. The speaker will make a case that the current economic downturn in the energy sector is a great opportunity to develop geothermal energy and at the same time boost the economy, bring the skilled workforce back to employment, develop an industry for a reliable and low-emission resource, and decrease the reliance on non-renewable energy sources.
