Podcasts about Byers

In Oklahoma, the Edmondson family was royalty. For decades, the Edmondson name had been synonymous with public service, integrity, and leadership. Some people even called them "the Kennedys of Oklahoma." It was because, generation after generation, they answered the call to serve. Sarah's grandfather served in the United States Congress. Her great-uncle was both the governor of Oklahoma and, later, a U.S. senator. Her uncle served as the state's attorney general. And her father, Jim Edmondson, would become a justice on the Oklahoma Supreme Court. Their reputation had been built on a deep commitment to the people of Oklahoma. The Edmondsons weren't known for scandal. And then came Sarah. Join Jen and Cam as we discuss ‘From Fiction to Fatal: William Savage & Patsy Byers.' Shout out to Jason P, who suggested the episode!

In this episode of The Brand Called You, we welcome Justin Byers, Founder & CEO of Axio BioPharma, for an insightful discussion on transforming the biopharma industry through data coordination and infrastructure innovation. The conversation focused on lessons from Justin's experience at leading pharmaceutical companies, the challenges of fragmented process data, and why connecting siloed systems—not the science itself—is the industry's greatest hurdle.The discussion explored how a unique combination of biotechnology and cybersecurity expertise shaped Axio BioPharma's federated, vendor-neutral architecture. One key concept was the importance of providing a coordination layer that enables AI models to reach their full potential by connecting and structuring high-quality data across multiple platforms.A key theme that emerged was the importance of neutrality and trust when handling sensitive pharmaceutical data, and why large manufacturers cannot easily serve as neutral coordination layers. The conversation also explored the technical challenges of standardizing data across disparate systems, the parallels between the future of biomanufacturing and financial networks, and the value of firsthand operational experience.Tune in to discover how Justin and Axio BioPharma are bridging operational realities with digital innovation to accelerate breakthroughs in pharmaceutical manufacturing and AI-driven process development.

Tracy Byers spent 25 years running AI and technology transformations at some of the biggest names in tech and healthcare: HP, GE, Philips, IBM Watson, Change Healthcare, and Optum. Then she did something that looked, from the outside, like a downgrade. She left the giants to lead veterinary software, diagnostic imaging, and telemedicine at IDEXX. In this episode of Inspiring Women, Tracy sits down with Laurie McGraw to explain why that leap was the smartest bet she could make, and what a career spent transforming complex businesses has taught her about trust, discomfort, and leading when the future is still being built. Tracy traces her path from finance major to med-tech powerhouse, a curiosity that started in her father's basement machine shop, where she couldn't drive the family car until she could change the oil, change a tire, and do a brake job. She breaks down the three-part filter she runs every role through (impact, people and culture, and hard problems), why a $4.5B company hit the sweet spot between agility and scale after the giants, and why the fragmented, private-equity-fueled veterinary industry is one of the most interesting problems in healthcare today. Then it gets practical. How she built credibility running an MRI business she knew nothing about by learning the product first. Why admitting what she's not good at is one of her greatest strengths. How she gets comfortable being uncomfortable, makes fast decisions without a "conditioned gut," and coaches both women and men through the real tradeoffs of career and family, including one piece of advice a colleague thanked her for 20 years later. In This Episode, topics covered are: - The basement machine shop that made her curious about how everything works - Why she left $450B companies for a $4.5B one, and what she gained - The three-part filter behind every job she's ever taken - Inside the vet industry: small independent practices vs private-equity consolidation - How to build startup culture and speed inside a large, complex company - Running the MRI business when she didn't know an MRI from a CT - Why knowing what you're bad at makes you a stronger leader - Getting comfortable being uncomfortable later in your career - Managing emotion and protecting credibility as a woman in the room - Paying it forward: accelerating the next generation of women leaders - The stay-at-home-spouse feedback story a colleague never forgot

PLAAD's Mark Stankey and Matthew Byers join Mark for a deep dive into what actually makes a home authentic, and it turns out the answer has a lot more to do with composition than cost. They talk through never evers like windows to nowhere, soffit returns gone wrong, and why a quiet, well composed exterior beats a gable smashed mansion every time. Stick around for the courtyard story that proves the best design lessons sometimes come straight from the client.
