We have talked a lot on this show about the benefits of a diverse and inclusive culture and how it leads to outstanding business results. But did you also know how DEI helps your company manage risk and future-proof against churn, productivity loss, and potentially falling behind in the market?Today, you will hear one of the best definitions of DEI and how it enhances your organization. And the definition will leave you hungry for dessert!Vivian Acquah shares a very clear - and delicious - definition of DEI, how the strategies and mindsets ensure your organization manages risk effectively, the financial costs you pay when you actively shy away from DEI, and an amazing look at how she uses virtual reality to help leaders truly understand what many in their organizations experience daily. To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:While the term DEI has been vilified recently, DEI is just like the best carrot cake - every aspect of the ingredients, the cooking temperature, and all of the elements make it great.Company loyalty is no longer guaranteed just because you pay your employees. Partnering with, not overpowering, your employees gives you better, stronger, and longer-term results. What motivates you may not be what motivates your employees. We all have different motivators.

Today, we return to the subject of Renewable Natural Gas, which could be as much as 15 % of global natural gas supply by 2050, offering significant advantages both in its carbon intensity as well as driving a powerful circularity, capturing waste methane that would otherwise go into the atmosphere, driving biodiversity and providing significant optionality in trading. What is RNG? Where does it sit today in terms of  global policy support and participants and what does its future hold? Our guests are Warren Feather and Ben Kruger. Warren was a Managing Director of Cargill and led their global oilseeds processing and renewables solutions businesses before joining Roeslein as a board advisor while Ben Kruger has joined Roeslein and Associates as the SVP of Renewables after a 25 -year career at Cargill, where he latterly was Director of Renewable Natural Gas and Specialty Oil Seeds. Roeslein itself is a global technology and engineering company that, through its Roeslein Renewables Group, is now developing projects around the world in renewable natural gas, offering turnkey solutions to agricultural customers,including finance and all technical aspects of project development.

Join Vivian Acquah and Mary Jane on the next episode of Let's Humanize The Workplace as they dive into a critical topic: Unmasking Carewashing. Too many organisations hide behind surface-level well-being initiatives—like yoga classes or mindfulness training—while continuing to uphold unhealthy “work hard, play hard” cultures.

Quadrise PLC (AIM:QED) non-executive chairman Andy Morrison and CEO Jason Miles talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest strategic leadership update and its focus on delivering key commercial and technology goals. Morrison outlined that Miles will transition to a new role focused on advancing Quadrise's core technologies and overseeing trial programmes, particularly those involving MSC and Cargill. Morrison stated, “We all believe the time for Quadrise PLC is now. We need to get on with it to deliver our technology and play our role in the decarbonization of shipping and the heavy industry sectors that we serve.” He explained that the change follows successful fundraising efforts in January and milestone achievements across core areas of the business. The search for a new CEO will now begin, with Morrison temporarily increasing his involvement to support the transition. Miles said his new role, effective 1st June, would allow him to focus more on the company's bioMSAR technology and extend its IP portfolio. He emphasised the importance of the marine sector trials and commercial scale-up of their fuels. Quadrise is also strengthening its team with new appointments to build sector-specific expertise.

In October of 2024, McDonald's sued four of the world's largest meat producers – Tyson, JBS, Cargill, and National Beef Packing – for allegedly conspiring to inflate the price of beef by creating artificial scarcity in the market. This is not the first time McDonald's has sued these meat producers, and it is not the first time these meat producers have been sued. Over 200 cases have been brought by restaurants, retailers, wholesalers, and ranchers. Some are still pending and others have been settled - with high payouts but no admission of wrongdoing. In this week's episode of Art of Supply, Kelly Barner reviews the case McDonald's is making against the Big 4: The price setting power associated with controlling 80 percent of the U.S. beef market The complexity associated with trying to track cost and price data in a highly concentrated market Why being the largest beef buyer in the world isn't enough to tip the scales in McDonald's favor Links: Kelly Barner on LinkedIn Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter  Art of Supply on AOP Subscribe to This Week in Procurement

In this episode of The Food Professor Podcast, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois take on some of the hottest topics, shaking up the Canadian food industry. There's plenty to discuss, from McDonald's latest attempt to crack the plant-based market with a new veggie burger to the disruptive impact of China's tariffs on Canadian seafood and agricultural products.Kicking off the episode, Michael and Sylvain dissect McDonald's surprising re-entry into the plant-based space after previous failures. They debate whether the new veggie burger will finally resonate with consumers or if it's another attempt destined to fizzle out. As one of Canada's biggest beef buyers, McDonald's faces a delicate balance between satisfying traditional customers and appealing to the growing demand for plant-based alternatives.Next, they turn their attention to China's tariffs on Canadian seafood and other agricultural exports, which pressure producers and create economic uncertainty. The hosts discuss how Canada's food export strategy is being tested and why policymakers seem more focused on protecting the automotive sector than agriculture despite the latter's massive economic footprint.Amid these challenges, the episode spotlights new leadership in agriculture. Canada has a new federal Minister of Agriculture, Kody Blois from Nova Scotia, and Ontario has appointed Trevor Jones as its new Minister of Agriculture. Sylvain shares insights on how Blois's background as chair of the Agriculture Committee could bring a pragmatic approach to the role. At the same time, Jones's rural roots could positively shape Ontario's agricultural landscape. The hosts debate what priorities these ministers should address first, especially given the ongoing trade disputes and the economic pressure on Canadian farmers.In the second half of the episode, the hosts welcome Michel Gagné, CEO of WeCook, to the show. Michel shares his journey from managing primary Cargill and Maple Leaf food operations to leading one of Canada's top fresh meal delivery services. He discusses how WeCook differentiates itself by offering fully prepared, high-quality meals rather than meal kits, making busy weeknight dinners simple and convenient.WeCook's strategy includes local sourcing and a commitment to freshness, with meals made daily and delivered to customers within just a few days. Michel also discusses challenges like price volatility in ingredients—especially chicken—and how the company has become profitable while maintaining its quality standards. He highlights the importance of brand partnerships, like working with chef Gabrielle Drapeau and ambassador P.K. Subban, to build credibility and expand into new markets. The episode concludes with Michael and Sylvain reflecting on how the food industry can innovate in the face of global trade issues, shifting consumer preferences, and evolving political landscapes. Whether you're interested in food policy, fresh meal innovation, or how Canadian companies adapt to the times, this episode delivers fresh insights with every bite.https://www.spraguefoods.com/  The Food Professor #podcast is presented by Caddle.
