#180: Pat sits down with Erik Owen, president and founder of Oak Hill Business Partners.  After 20 years in corporate roles at companies like M&I, Johnson Controls, and Rockwell, Owen realized the "corporate sweater" fit, but it was itchy as hell. That friction pushed him into entrepreneurship, where he launched Oak Hill and never looked back. Here's what you'll learn in this episode: How Owen positioned himself as a fractional CFO to get early traction How he evolved Oak Hill into a growth and exit advisory firm that helps owners build repeatable profits, sustainable growth, and ultimately a transferable business.  The Oak Hill business model – it operates like a design-build general contractor, owning the whole project and partnering with specialists to execute. His thoughts on marketing lead gen vs. general, brand building. Owen also shares his philosophy on real networking, the sacrifices behind his success, and what surprised him most about becoming an entrepreneur. Want to connect with Erik?

Dans cet épisode, Stan nous ouvre les coulisses d'une carrière qui ne ressemble à aucune autre : six pays, des environnements totalement différents, des scale-ups en hypercroissance, des levées de fonds massives, un MBA à Oxford… et aujourd'hui un rôle de CFO à Dubaï.Un vrai parcours de globetrotteur de la finance.Avec Stan, on parle clairement, sans filtre et sans jargon. Il raconte comment il est passé des Big Four aux fintechs, comment il a vécu le shift du rôle de CFO, et pourquoi la finance moderne n'a plus rien à voir avec le modèle traditionnel français.Au Royaume-Uni, il l'a constaté : on attend du CFO qu'il soit rapide, orienté croissance, capable de prendre des décisions avec 80 % d'information.En France, la culture est différente : la technicité prime. Deux visions, deux manières de piloter une organisation.On plonge aussi dans son expérience en scale-up :

Dans cet extrait, Stan partage sans filtre sa vision d'un métier en pleine transformation : celui du CFO.Un métier qui, selon lui, n'a plus grand-chose à voir avec l'image traditionnelle de “l'expert-comptable de l'entreprise”.Tout commence par une comparaison frappante entre la France et le Royaume-Uni : deux cultures financières, deux approches de la formation, deux façons d'envisager le rôle du DAF.En France, on valorise la technicité. On se rassure avec les diplômes longs, les normes, la précision absolue.Au UK, Stan l'a vécu : on attend du CFO qu'il avance vite, prenne des décisions, taille dans le bois, fasse du 80/20 et accompagne la croissance.Et c'est là que son témoignage devient essentiel pour tout DAF, CFO ou contrôleur de gestion :

Usher is suing his longtime collaborator Bryan-Michael Cox and several business partners over an unpaid $700,000 balance from a $1.7 million loan intended for a Buckhead restaurant project that never materialized. Usher, who has worked with Cox on classics like Burn and U Got It Bad, is now seeking up to $4.9 million in damages after court documents allege the loan money was misused rather than applied to the property purchase as agreed.

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show starts with a headline-grabbing lawsuit as Usher sues longtime collaborator Bryan-Michael Cox and several business partners over an unpaid $700,000 balance from a $1.7 million loan intended for a Buckhead restaurant project that never materialized. Usher, who has worked with Cox on classics like Burn and U Got It Bad, is now seeking up to $4.9 million in damages after court documents allege the loan money was misused rather than applied to the property purchase as agreed. The crew then turns to disturbing new allegations against Motown legend Smokey Robinson, as a male accuser joins existing civil cases claiming Robinson sexually assaulted him in 2022—accusations Robinson denies. These lawsuits add to a growing list of Jane and John Doe filings that have put Robinson under intense public scrutiny. Finally, the show dives into breaking political news as the House votes overwhelmingly to release the long-sealed Epstein documents, with a near-unanimous 427–1 vote. The remaining paperwork is expected to move quickly through the Senate before heading to the President’s desk, raising anticipation for what high-profile names or communications might emerge once the files become public.

We've talked to many design leaders who have burned out after a decade or more of corporate work. But after 17 years at Philips designing health innovations, Cecilia Brenner wasn't burnt out…she loved it. And she wanted to find a way to scale her sense of purpose, so she joined Design for Good as Managing Director, and found a way to work with hundreds of designers who want meaningful impact without leaving their day jobs. This is a preview of a premium episode, find the full episode on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/cecilia-brenner Design for Good mobilizes what Cecilia calls a “radical global action collective”—1,600 designers from companies like Philips, Lloyds Bank, and others—to tackle UN Sustainable Development Goals through focused, two-year cycles. Their first cycle addressed clean water and sanitation. Now they're working on quality education. And here's the twist: everything they create is open source. In our conversation, Cecilia explains how Design for Good measures real impact (not estimated future impact), why they chose to focus on one SDG at a time instead of spreading resources thin, and what it means to design for “all life,” not just human life. If you've ever wondered how to find more meaning in your design work—or questioned whether purpose-driven projects actually move the needle—this episode offers a surprisingly practical model. Bio Cecilia Brenner is the Managing Director of Design for Good, a global alliance dedicated to creating lasting, measurable impact for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Since joining in May 2024, Cecilia has successfully led the charity in mobilising hundreds of creatives to design in close collaboration with NGOs and affected communities worldwide. With over 25 years of international experience in design and leadership, Cecilia is a catalyst for inclusion, innovation, and impact. She previously served as an Experience Design Director & Business Partner at Philips, where she spent 17 years improving people's health and well-being through meaningful innovation, building high-performing, engaged global design teams and communities, as well as leading transformational programmes with a unique blend of network leadership, team-building excellence, and strategic insight. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better.

In this episode of the AI Agent & Copilot Podcast, John Siefert hosts Jeff Miller, Vice President, Americas, LS Retail, for a discussion on LS Retail's position in its industry, how it supports organizations across the globe, integrating AI, and upcoming projects.Key TakeawaysAbout the company: LS Retail has been a leader in its industry from an ISV perspective. The company has been in the ecosystem for about 30 years, focusing on software development in the retail market. There are over 110,000 retail locations using LS Retail in their stores. "We come to a market with what we call 'composable solution,' so I can build building blocks, depending on a retailer's need, that can do everything from run the entire enterprise of a retail business, simply down to a point-of-sale solution that integrates into the rest of the retailer solution stack," Miller explains.Global use: One of LS Retail's specialties is creating the localization and fiscalizations that organizations need to operate across different countries. Every country manages aspects of business, like taxes, a little bit differently. Between LS Retail and its partners, they have done the work to make sure it operates in a way that companies conducting business in various countries can use the software in their stores around the world. Deploying in the Microsoft Cloud with Azure enables them to implement the software seamlessly.Partner network: Operating at a global scale also speaks to the power of LS Retail's business partner network. It has over 300 business partners globally who go through certification testing so they have a technical understanding of how to implement the software and support clients in their local communities.AI integration: "We really take in the whole idea of customer zero and being a frontier firm to heart," Miller says. Within LS Retail, there has been an emphasis on using Copilot and Copilot Studio not only from a development standpoint but also for automating the testing of code. Externally, LS Retail is part of Microsoft's program, "The Microsoft Red Carpet Club." They have been meeting to discuss ideas around agents and providing feedback to Microsoft about the future of products and code, as well as how it integrates with Dynamics products.Pharmacy agent: LS Retail recently announced a project at an event. One of the agents it has developed supports pharmacies in Europe. The company is working on co-innovation projects with pharmacy clients to develop an agent that manages tasks for them, like handling prescriptions and refills. LS Retail is looking at opportunities to expand this particular agent in Latin America as well. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

In this episode, I sits down with my husband, Matt, for a raw and refreshingly honest conversation about spirituality, partnership, and what it really looks like to grow together when you're evolving in completely different ways. We explore the tension between wanting to be deeply seen in your healing journey and learning to honor the individuality, pace, and language of the person you love. I open up about the ego patterns that surfaced in my awakening, the messy desire for validation, and the tenderness of learning to stand in my truth without needing my partner to mirror it. Matt shares his grounded perspective on spirituality, emotional labor in relationships, and the realities of holding space during someone's rock bottoms. Together, we break down communication, boundaries, business, nervous system regulation, and why authenticity matters more than alignment that looks good on the internet. If you've ever wondered how to navigate a relationship where one person is “more spiritual,” or if you've been craving a down-to-earth conversation about love, personal growth, and the hard moments in between, this episode is for you. You'll walk away with new insight into sovereignty, acceptance, and how to honor your path without losing connection in the process. Take a breath - this one goes deep in a really beautiful way. We also talk about: - Why wanting your partner to be “more spiritual” often comes from fear - The ego's desire for validation and belonging during awakening - What it feels like to be the emotional “rock” during someone's deep healing - How to communicate when triggers and projections get activated - The difference between individuality vs. shared identity in partnership - Why spirituality is deeply personal and impossible to measure - The emotional consequences of Lauren's Sedona year and how they rebuilt - Navigating pressure, burnout, and regulation while running a business together - Letting go of performance on social media and embracing realness - Building a relationship rooted in respect, sovereignty, and actual teamwork

I'm Josh Kopel, a Michelin-awarded restaurateur and the creator of the Restaurant Scaling System. I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses. In this episode, I dive into one of the most overlooked parts of running a successful restaurant—the lease. I explain how rent isn't just an expense but a performance metric that can shape your entire business. You'll learn how to negotiate from a position of strength, build better relationships with landlords, and know when walking away is the smartest move for your bottom line.  TakeawaysYour lease can bankrupt you while you're succeeding.Treat rent as a performance metric, not a bill.Negotiate from proof, not panic.Investors don't ask for discounts, they ask for upside.A bad lease with great sales is just a trap.Know when to walk away and leave rich.Highlight every clause that changes over time.Schedule a lease review with your accountant, not your landlord.Your landlord is your most dangerous business partner.Share this with an owner still negotiating like a tenant.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Restaurant Success Strategies01:52 Understanding the Lease as a Business Tool05:39 Negotiation Tactics for Restaurant OwnersIf you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.

In this throwback episode, we have Anne and Mark Lackey. Entrepreneurs that has a series of ventures that each emerged from a real‑world problem they faced themselves. When a valued employee abruptly quit, they recognized the hidden cost of staff churn and the difficulty of finding reliable “drudgery” workers—people willing to handle repetitive, phone‑based tasks. Their answer was to create HireSmart Virtual Assistants. HireSmart's model combines two core services: rigorous recruiting that matches the right talent to the right role, and a one‑week certification boot‑camp that trains virtual assistants in both technical skills and cultural communication. They also act as an ongoing HR partner, handling issues that arise after placement. The result is a seamless experience for clients—calls sound as if they're coming from the U.S., tasks are completed efficiently, and companies enjoy significant cost savings. The founders also note the broader social impact: they now provide health care to thousands of Filipino families, a benefit many Fortune 500 call centers don't offer.
