I tried to be the type of leader that other people expected me to be, not the person that I wanted to be.” - Robb Wong [26:59] “What's going to happen is if you continue to try to help people, they're going to come to you and they're going to say, Shana, I know this isn't what NYLA does, but we have this other problem.

And you have to be open for change.” - Robb Wong [50:50] “I love helping small businesses who can help our government because I think it makes for a stronger government.

Government Contractors - Best Practices to Guide You Forward.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act at the start of the pandemic was a lifeline for millions of small businesses in the U.S. The Paycheck Protection loan program (PPP) and the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) provided relief and cash for all kinds of small businesses, but for government contractors, the confusion and changing guidance and interpretations has caused much consternation, stress, confusion, and frustration.Now, almost two years after the initial programs were put in place, there is still confusion. Listen to Susan Moser, Advisory Partner and leader of Cherry Bekaert's Government Contracting industry practice, Martin Karamon, a Tax Services Principal and leader of Cherry Bekaert's Tax Credits and Incentives advisory practice, Brynn McNeil, an Assurance Partner in the Firm's GovCon practice, and Eric Poppe, a Senior Manager in the GovCon practice, as they provide a recap of the programs and discuss their current state, how contractors are handling relief, the accounting for these credits, the tax implications and how government auditors are looking at these credits and the impact on contracts.If you have any questions specific to your situation, Cherry Bekaert's GovCon Consultants are available to discuss your situation with you.

Tuesday on Political Rewind: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released its latest reporting last week. It is the most definitive report yet on the consequences of an unchecked global carbon economy on our global climate. Scientists are crystal clear that human activity is to blame for widespread and rapid changes. The findings are grim, but not surprising to anyone who has been following the unfolding crisis. “The extremes associated with climate change and that are talked about in the IPCC report; they are not happening in 2100, they are not happening just to the polar bears, they are happening right now,” Dr. Marshall Shepherd said. “And we're seeing implications for our day-to-day lives, what I often call our kitchen-table issues.” So what is the message Americans should take away from this report? As we look ahead to uncertainty, what are the paths forward that address this existential issue? Panelists: Dr. J. Marshall Sheperd — Georgia Athletic Association Distinguished Professor of Geography and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Georgia Dr. Marilyn Brown — Regents and Brook Byers Professor of Sustainable Systems, School of Public Policy at Georgia Institute of Technology Dr. Nirajan Dhakal — Associate professor and vice chair of Environmental and Health Sciences Program Tamar Hallerman – Senior reporter, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
In this episode, I talk with my friend Thomas Lee about how his career journey combines his technical background in engineering with his experience in business and government policy. Thomas shares the interesting work that happens at the interfaces of these sectors, in particular with his passion for climate change. Come listen to Thomas' wide-ranging work and interests and where his curiosity has led him! You can find Thomas at: Twitter: thomastlee Clubhouse: Climate 101 room every other Monday. Beginners are welcome! Some of my key takeaways from our conversation are: It is so easy to simplify someone else's job when we don't understand the big picture. Take a moment to explore what it's like being in other person's shoes Thomas started asking "why" from a very young age, first about objects and tools around him, and then that led to larger questions on society as well as individuals working together. Consider digging below the surface by asking "why" and following your curiosity. Things get interesting at the intersection, whether of industries or subjects or even devices! Where are intersections in your life and what are you learning from them? If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

I got a question from a YouTube viewer asking about government grants for buying businesses. I’ve learned over the course of time that governments operate on their own time tables and with their own priorities. Let me tell you about what I’ve learned about free money from the government… (of course not getting into the politics of the fact that free money from the government is actually coming out of your neighbour’s pocket so it’s not really FREE is it??)

Pending government shutdown is just hours away. Congress has been legislating crisis-to-crisis because it is unwilling or unable to address the bigger problem we face: uncontrolled government spending. Solution passes House after Freedom Caucus negotiates deal, now bill moves to Senate. What will happen there? Senator Diane Feinstein says people may die from a government shutdown. Reminds me of Reason TV's parody song "People Will Die." Illustrates so much of what's wrong with government and the role some believe it should play in our every day lives. A year of Trump. Waiting to see Facebook post updates from my Liberal friends. Business & Government.

Rooster Radio - Stories & Insights from Entrepreneurs and Leaders in Business, Health, Tech & More
Greg Mackie OAM is one of South Australia's most influential people in arts and culture, and current Chief Executive of History SA. For Greg, the journey started with his family bookstore which built a cult following in the Adelaide CBD. His in-store events took a life of their own, and were the genesis of what would become the Adelaide Festival of Ideas, founded by Greg. He then applied for the state's most senior Arts gig, CEO of Arts SA, and to his surprise got the job. It was a steep learning curve, but Greg quickly found success. Through this role, and other influential positions within the public sector, Greg increased investment in the arts and also oversaw a number of cultural and social innovations. Greg is particularly unique in that he has somehow found a way to make art, entrepreneurship and government work together. He reveals why, and shares really important insights about how to cut through red tape and get things done in and with the public sector. He also put the arts community on notice about the reality of the future and funding of the arts, as well as leadership, his story and much more.
