• Supply chain expert Art Koch offers tips to be prepared • “We have to do a lot more education and training” (Total Recorded Time is 16:15) Assuming President-elect Donald Trump succeeds in imposing massive tariffs on goods imported from other countries, some manufacturing may move back to the U.S., or at least closer to the nation, says Art Koch, an expert in supply chain management. But don't look for any sudden significant increase in domestic manufacturing simply because the trained workers are not available, he says. “We have to do a lot more education and training,” he says. “I don't think it can be turned around in a short time.” How should companies be preparing?  Art Koch offers ideas in this Bizgnus Interview. Mr. Koch is the author of the new book, “The Supply Chain Revolution: Unlocking the Sustainable Profit Chain,” (Business Expert Press, June 2024).

For the last several years, Brendan has worked as a Registered Investment Advisor for Lafayette Investments.

Brendan is the author of two books: Markets in Chaos: A History of Market Crises Around the World (published by Business Expert Press) and The Wandering Investor. We talk about Brendan's book and research on market crises around the world. We start with the most recent global COVID pandemic and the market chaos that followed. We take a tour around the world, stopping by in Iceland, and taking a fresh look at what happened there over a decade ago. Icelanders became three times richer in three years as leverage, and banking led to trouble. Brendan shares stories of crises in Latin America and Asia. We have a longer conversation about the dangers of inflation, and specifically hyperinflation. Our trip around the world wouldn't be complete without a stop in Africa. We both have great curiosity about the 1970s in the US, the Japanese stock market rise and fall in the 1980s. We both strongly believe that there is always a lot to learn from history, and past market crises can teach us a lot. They expand our imagination and show us how to navigate some more stormy seas.

Her doctoral work, completed with interprofessional groups at Stanford, and subsequent books,* deal with mitigating this very issue of the cultural mis-communication issues that are at the root of the problem.The solution?Candy uses her 20+ years experience as an actor/director/coach/facilitator and her 40 years in the healthcare industry to help leaders create a culture where everybody WANTS to work and nobody wants to leave.*Improv to Improve Healthcare and (coming in April) Improv to Improve Your Leadership TeamBut Wait! There's more!For you nurses, statisticians, social consciousness wonks, or other masses yearning to learn from history, Candy's third solo show, 'An Evening With Florence Nightingale: A Reluctant Celebrity, ' has been enjoyed, in-person, in 4 countries and now, virtually, by a global audience .

Youtube Version https://youtu.be/5jyucCcXf6w https://www.candycampbell.com Meet Candy Improv provokes innovation Candy Campbell Award-winning actor, author, filmmaker; nurse, mom, and motivational speaker. :) It wasn't long before Candy found her way back as a commercial actor, doing voice-overs, commercials, and television spots, as a side-hustle. That was a fun diversion from the often-difficult work as an intensive care nurse. After divorce, she felt she really needed to laugh again, so began studying stand-up and improv comedy, and co-founded an improv company, The Barely Insane Players, in the San Francisco East Bay area, in 1993. In 1995, at the request of an audience-member, she began teaching applied improv skills to a series of Silicon Valley start-ups, then to other groups of all ages and stages, and realized the principles were very applicable to both personal and professional growth. Meanwhile, although she was performing and teaching improv regularly, and federal research surfaced about the mistakes and deaths caused by miscommunication in healthcare, she could not get a toe in the door in any healthcare organization to help solve the problem by sharing improv principles. The resistance was: “no evidence the method works in healthcare.” Oy! That pushback caused her to rise to the challenge and complete her doctoral work and qualitative research with groups at Stanford's LPCH, to emphasize the benefits of applied improv training in relation to combating burn-out with team building, inclusivity, resilience, This work has expanded to become a series of four books on the subject. In 2020, the first of the series (Improv to Improve Healthcare) was published by Business Expert Press, and the second (Improv to Improve Your Leadership Team) will be released in 2022.

In this episode of the HRchat podcast, we consider the employee experience and ask: Are we getting worse at communicating? Bill's guest this time is Yuri Kruman, Chief Executive Officer / Head of Remote at HR, Talent & Systems, a full-service HR Consultancy, focused on building out robust HR functions for fast-growth companies.Yuri is a sought-after speaker and expert on HR, Digital Transformation, and Employee Experience (EX).Questions For Yuri Include: How did you end up in HR after 5 other unrelated careers?In an article on LinkedIn, you write: "Basically, humans, especially men, f-ing suck at communication. We have a million channels for communication - you know, WhatsApp, Facetime, Messenger, face-to-face, FB, Slack, email, carrier pigeon. But our actual communication is poor and getting poorer". What did you mean by this, why do you feel men are particularly bad at communicating? How can poor communication manifest in the workplace? What are the negative consequences on the employee experience and what can be done to improve things?In another post called '5 Ways Transactional Thinking Is Robbing You Blind -- and How to Stop It NOW', you say "The trouble is, most of really don't get how this transactional, tactical short-sighted thinking has become a self-fulfilling prophecy, with 4-second attention spans, insanely short news cycles and blazing fast internet and mobile data speeds driving us (crazy), anxious and inattentive." Transactional thinking, you suggest, blinds us to what unites us, while exacerbating what separates us, makes us more easily manipulated, takes away our hope and makes us depressed, and causes us more to be more dependent on technology and less dependent on our own sense of right and wrong, and truth and lies. Why do we think transactionally and how can we adjust our mindsets? What compelled you to write your latest book series, Be Your Own Commander-in-Chief?More About YuriYuri is a member of the Fast Company Executive Board, Newsweek Expert Forum and Forbes Coaches Council, as well as a contributor to Fast Company, Forbes, Entrepreneur, Newsweek, Business.com, Influencive and a number of other top platforms.

A discussion on learning and development: Episode Notes Learning and development is usually seen as a subset of the Human Resources department, and it is related to improving employees' competencies and performance. Oftentimes, just like it happens with many other well-being practices at work, companies do not treat learning and development as a main priority for their business. As a matter of fact, revenue growth, profitability and technology investment tend to come first. But why is it so hard for companies to embrace a “people first” mentality?In this episode of Stepsero, we ask Christoph Spiessens, who has spent the last fifteen years in learning and development.Below are a few highlights from our conversation: Learning and development should be approached holistically. This means that L&D practitioners should strive to identify employees' needs and motivation factors outside of conventional practices.Learning and development is about gaining employees's trust by listening, rather than performing. In this regard, no amount of conventional off-the-shelf training, no matter how brilliantly designed, will hit the target if it is focused on the wrong objectives.Managers and company leaders can take the first step to establish a circle of trust at work. One way to do this is to show their own vulnerability.Individuals generally benefit by deliberately choosing a “being mode” over a “doing mode”. The doing mode is usually about trying to change one's own status, which causes people to avoid facing their fears and anxieties. The being mode, on the other hand, allows people to accept their situation, therefore lifting any unnecessary pressure. Our Guest: Christoph Spiessens Christoph Spiessens is an inspirational author, certified coach and accredited mindfulness teacher. His book, "Life of a Lifetime" is published by Business Expert Press, NY. Christoph helps people thrive with mindfulness workshops and talks, and brings secular mindfulness to employees across all sectors and all levels in a practical and usable way.When people ask him where he gets his “calm energy” from, Christoph always replies: “Life itself. It's an incredible, humbling experience and the journey teaches us so much. The good, the bad and the ugly. We can -if we choose to- grow from it all. I have a huge passion for life and the opportunities it brings us to evolve into happier, more fulfilled, self-actualising people. This excitement fuels my work.” He is particularly fascinated by the intersection of neuroscience, spirituality and wellbeing. Christoph is a childhood abuse survivor. The recovery journey was not always easy but he cultivated a practical, secular spirituality along the way that continues to empower him. He believes his message can help you thrive too.References:Christoph Spiessens Linkedin profile www.christophspiessens.comChristoph's profile on Insight Timer Listen to the next Episode All Podcast Episodes

Well before the current frenzy over “tweets gone wild,” Joe Barnes walked into businesses, for profits and non-profits, and would ask: “What’s your social media policy?” The usual response was: We don’t have one, or “Go talk to marketing about that.” In his travels he realized that nearly every business and organization he walked into, no matter what size, did not have a written social media policy, nor did they clearly understand or even know what the Federal Trade Commission requires in the way of disclosure. That’s why he wrote his book: “Social Media Ethics Made Easy: How to Comply with FTC Disclosure Requirements.” The book is available from Business Expert Press or on Amazon. Our host today is Matthew Cummings. ----more---- About our guest: Joe Barnes Joe is a full-time faculty lecturer in marketing, business communications, and social/digital/mobile marketing at the Albers School of Business & Economics at Seattle University.

Hi, this is Leah Hinds. Welcome to episode 63 of ATG: The Podcast. We’ve had a gap in our shows recently but I’m glad to be getting back on track! This week, I’m nearing the end of our summer road trip. We’re in Freeland, Michigan, visiting my husband’s family and then we’ll be heading back to South Carolina in time for me to participate in the Charleston Conference Call for Papers review meeting. Speaking of the conference, before we get into today’s episode I have a brief reminder about our Charleston Fast Pitch Competition. The call for submissions and nominations is now open, and the deadline is this Friday, July 20. Fast Pitch encourages proposals for ideas on improving or transforming the work environment at a library, or any information-related enterprise or organization in educational technology. There will be two awards of $2,500 each for winning proposals from U.S.-based tax exempt non-profit organizations through the generous support of the Goodall Family Foundation. There will also be a third international award of a travel stipend to attend the 2018 Conference to present your winning idea to the audience. The international travel award is graciously supported by Business Expert Press and Momentum Press. Go to www.charlestonlibraryconference/fastpitch for more information and to submit your proposal or nomination. I’m looking forward to seeing all of your innovative ideas! This week’s episode features the audio from a recording of a webinar where we introduced a new project called ATG Trendspotting. Building on last year’s FutureLab, Against the Grain and the Charleston Conference invite broad participation in our new ATG Trendspotting Initiative, a community-engaged process for cooperatively and collaboratively exploring different trends and forecasting their impact on scholarly communication, publishing, and academic libraries. One of the outcomes of the initiative will be producing a vetted listing of social, policy, economic, technology, and educational trends by means of the Trend Storm. Anyone in the library, publishing, and information industry is invited to fill out the Trend Storm submission form by July 20 – the link is available in the show notes. You can submit a Trend Storm even if you are unable to attend the Charleston Conference so don’t let travel be a barrier to participation! We will also be hosting a Trend Lab forum at the Charleston Conference on the potential impacts of the trends on the information industry with a small group of nominated/invited participants, as well as presenting a Trend Talk panel at the Charleston conference sharing the results of the Trend Lab discussion and soliciting further input.

“Agile” has become a buzzword in the software development industry as well as the wider business landscape. And for good reason – several organizations have cited Agile principles as the influence behind results such as better financial performance, project success, customer satisfaction and employee engagement. In fact, 92 percent of executives said they believe organizational agility is critical to business success (Forbes/PMI). However, a deep understanding of Agile frameworks at the board-level is necessary in order for implementation to be effective. If this deep understanding is coupled with enthusiasm, CEOs and the C-Suite can initiate an overall digital transformation that directly impacts the bottom line and boosts the potential of every employee – and nobody knows this better than Dave West.Dave West is the CEO and Product Owner at Scrum.org and former VP and Research Director at Forrester Research for software development.

The Road Ahead? Patron-Driven Acquisition Might Become... Library patrons make use of many forms of content: journals, ebooks, videos, audio tracks, archival documents, musical scores, etc. Each of these content types is amenable to PDA and the technology certainly exists to deliver each of these content types in PDA. So what stands in the way? We consider the prospects for a future-state of PDA that is multimedia, universal in its publisher/provider inclusion and delivered in an "e-commerce," if you will, environment where the content providers and the library can engage in negotiated agreement on item subscription charges and the trigger to purchase, rather than these being set by the aggregator. In this panel we explore three trends propelling us toward this future state and three trends hindering this future state, and will solicit feedback from participants as to other trends we may have missed. Propelling: 1. Continually tightening library budgets 2. Gradual emergence of affordable, patron-driven models like ReadCube 3. Decreasing demonstrable value of "commodity collections," especially in print and especially in research libraries, moving us towards digitization of rare and unique collections for consumption on demand Hindering: 1. The emergence of a standard for a platform 2. Flexible terms on triggers and prices 3. Strong culture of "institutional ownership" and collection building in libraries   Rick Anderson Associate Dean for Collections & Scholarly Communication University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT Rick Anderson is Associate Dean for Scholarly Resources & Collections in the J.

For some time people thought that business and ethics constituted separate and mutually exclusive realms. Businesses that perpetuate such a belief or still hold that “business ethics” is an oxymoron are at risk. Indeed, managers are now being called on to actively promote ethical organizational integrity. This means understanding the principles that define and creating an organizational culture that measurably encourages ethical conduct. The reason for this shift in paradigm is clear. Ethical organizational integrity drives long-term company success and sustainable value production, serves to prevent illegal conduct, and best contributes to overall social welfare. This book provides a brief introduction to and general framework for managing for ethical-organizational integrity that will be useful to managers and business students alike.
