Podcasts about CBS Interactive

On this episode of the Invest In Her Podcast, host Catherine Gray welcomes Irene Tang, Director of Data and Insights at StartOut, an organization dedicated to empowering LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs. Irene brings a wealth of experience from her past roles at Google and CBS Interactive, now using her expertise to advance data-driven initiatives that highlight the unique challenges and successes of LGBTQ+ founders. Based in Houston, Texas, Irene is a passionate advocate for creating opportunities and visibility for underrepresented entrepreneurs, particularly in communities where support systems may be limited. Catherine and Irene discuss StartOut's groundbreaking research, which revealed that LGBTQ+ founders receive just 0.5% of startup funding, despite making up approximately 7-10% of the population. They explore the impact of StartOut's initiatives, including mentorship programs, investor introductions, and their Growth Lab accelerator, which has helped founders scale their businesses and secure significant funding. Irene shares inspiring success stories, such as Avocademy, a UX/UI education platform that dramatically increased its revenue after joining the accelerator, and Carbon Reform, a startup revolutionizing air purification that has raised over $5 million. This episode sheds light on the importance of financial inclusion and the role of LGBTQ+ investors in fostering innovation. https://www.startout.org/ www.sheangelinvestors.com    Follow Us On Social Facebook @sheangelinvestors Twitter (X) @sheangelsinvest Instagram @sheangelinvestors & @catherinegray_investinher LinkedIn @catherinelgray & @sheangels

One of the most important aspects of success is a team's ability to collaborate – but it can also be one of the most challenging parts. In this episode, we're highlighting a popular session ELC Annual 2024 on how to encourage collaboration, ultimately increasing productivity and creating more likely outcomes of success. This conversation features Marcel Weekes, VP of Product Engineering @ Figma, and Arquay Harris, former VP of Engineering @ Webflow. This conversation also features a robust Q&A session from ELC Annual attendees on their most pressing collaboration questions – including diagnosing teams that are struggling to collaborate, how to measure the success of collaborative tools, strategies for building rituals / processes around collaboration, and much more.ABOUT MARCEL WEEKESMarcel Weekes is VP of Product Engineering at Figma, where he oversees product and growth engineering efforts across Figma's entire platform. Marcel brings decades of experience and previously served as the VP of Engineering at Slack where he led the teams building Messaging features and Slack Connect."A trait of product engineers that I have found to be successful in predicting positive outcomes is they view code as a tool to get something done. Engineers on the other end of the spectrum who might be more elite code engineers or more like, ‘I got this algorithm to go like .005 percent faster,' frankly that's not what's going to get your product to product market fit. If you're not focused on the end goal here, you're going to make suboptimal decisions the whole way.”- Marcel Weekes   ABOUT ARQUAY HARRISArquay has held Engineering leadership positions at Slack, Google and CBS Interactive. A developer who also has a Masters in Design, Arquay loves the marriage of form and function. Following her most recent role as VP of Engineering at Webflow, Arquay is currently enjoying retirement. She fills her days with occasional mentoring and speaking engagements as well as pursuing her many hobbies.SHOW NOTES:Marcel's definition of effective team collaboration (2:36)How Figma's dev mode is reducing collaborative tension (5:42)Processes & rituals that increase productivity early on (7:12)Marcel & Arquay's collaboration example: success with Slack Connect (9:44)Why collaborative teams are ultimately more productive teams (13:21)Audience Q&A: Frameworks for diagnosing teams that are struggling to collaborate (14:25)How to avoid over collaboration / communication (17:09)Strategies for creating collaboration standards early on in a project (19:33)Navigating the balance between collaboration & preserving autonomous teams (22:23)Encouraging engineers to care about broader outcomes & collaboration (26:54)Tips for measuring the success & productivity of collaborative tools (29:11)How to foster cross-collaborative respect between design & engineering (32:19)Building relationships across teams / functions to promote smooth operation (34:27)Recommendations to help developers & design to share more work in progress (36:52)This episode wouldn't have been possible without the help of our incredible production team:Patrick Gallagher - Producer & Co-HostJerry Li - Co-HostNoah Olberding - Associate Producer, Audio & Video Editor https://www.linkedin.com/in/noah-olberding/Dan Overheim - Audio Engineer, Dan's also an avid 3D printer - https://www.bnd3d.com/Ellie Coggins Angus - Copywriter, Check out her other work at https://elliecoggins.com/about/

It used to be if you wanted to break into broadcast media you first had to start small – by getting a job as a correspondent at a local news station and then working your way up to bigger and bigger markets.   That's the career trajectory that Casey Keirnan followed. He started out covering high school sports in small towns and then eventually landed a job at CBS Interactive, which was trying to create an ESPN competitor for OTT streaming. But after only two years on the job, Casey's contract wasn't renewed, and he feared he would have to go back to local news.   But then he launched A.M. Hoops, an NBA-focused YouTube channel that ended up being so successful that he replaced his previous salary within a few months. Today, it boasts over 400,000 subscribers and 264 million channel views.   In our interview, Casey told me about his slow climb in local news, why he struggled at his CBS job, and what inspired him to strike off on his own to start a YouTube channel.

Las empresas han aprovechado esta tecnología para mejorar la toma de decisiones y agilizar procesos internos, como la introducción de datos, ventas y marketing. El marketing con aprendizaje automático ha demostrado ser productivo, con aplicaciones como la segmentación de clientes, sistemas de recomendación, predicción de pérdida de clientes y previsión del valor del tiempo de vida. Los líderes del mercado, como JPMorgan Chase, CBS Interactive, Stitch Fix, Dstillery y Sephora, han adoptado el aprendizaje automático en sus estrategias de marketing para mejorar la personalización, comprender las opiniones de los clientes y aumentar la interacción. Sin embargo, utilizar el aprendizaje automático en marketing requiere explorar y analizar los datos, recopilar y procesarlos adecuadamente, y desarrollar modelos complejos, lo cual puede ser costoso y complejo para muchas organizaciones.

https://youtu.be/fAumfn8MMo0 David McClellan is a serial entrepreneur and founder of Social Catfish, a company that helps consumers find lost personal connections and verify if people are really whom they say they are online. We discuss the challenges of hiring a marketing firm, the limits of being protected online, and having a realistic workload for your team.   --- Focus on the Top 20% with David McClellan Our guest is David McClellan, a serial entrepreneur and founder of Social Catfish, a company that helps consumers find lost personal connections and verify if people are really whom they say they are online. David, welcome to the show. Yeah, thanks for having me, Steve. It's great to have you and I'm very curious about your company and your journey. I mean, how does, what does it take for a procrastinator to become actually a launcher of multiple successful companies? How can you launch a company when you're a procrastinator? It takes changing. That's what it takes. It takes not being a procrastinator. Although I do say that like being a, you know, growing up as a procrastinator, you learn to prioritize the things that are important. You know, getting that, you know, homework assignment done and, you know, when it's due and making sure you can prioritize that and get that done has helped me, you know, build and scale business by focusing on what's going to move the needle. Okay, all right. So, okay, so you overcame your procrastination, and then what happened? So how did you end up with the social catfish and the predecessor companies? How did your journey lead to here? Yeah, so I mean, it's a long journey, but long story short, I was in the car business early on and when I was younger and our local economy was hit harder than any other part of the country in the 2007 recession. And so I went from making about 100 grand a year to about $1,200 a month. And so my family and I, we were hit really, really hard. And during that time, I knew I always wanted to be an entrepreneur. I was always thinking and writing down business ideas. And when your income gets slashed, the risk of doing those things becomes more appealing. And so during that time, I tried a few things out and then I started a digital marketing company because I started realizing that anything I was gonna do, I'd have to build websites and market those websites. And so I started doing that. One of my clients got bought out by CBS, the broadcast company, CBS Interactive. And so I ended up coming on board and doing SEO for them. And while I was doing that, I was starting websites up and I would sell them or I just make money from a period of time. And then eventually built socialcafe.com, which was significantly different from a lot of the projects I had worked on in the past, where you saw, with some of the other things we worked on, we started a project, made a little bit of money, or made it valuable, and then was able to sell it. And with Social Catfish, I just saw this long future. And it was that pivotal point in my life where I'm like, look, it doesn't make sense to just continue to build websites over and over and over. You know, there's an actual business here that I can build and, you know, and then just really ran with it. You know, David, it's so interesting, your story of how you were doing the marketing for other people and then eventually you figured out, I might as well do it for myself. And you know, I have had this lingering suspicion for a long time that the challenge of hiring a marketing firm is that only those people are available for hire who don't really know how to do it because if they did, it would not be worth their while to stay in a job. So, I have a love-hate relationship with marketing firms. I have buddies that I know are very good marketers and very successful that own their own agencies. I've hired many, many agencies. I've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars through third-party agencies. And I think the difference is,

Tik Tok, the Chinese-owned social media platform, has taken the U.S. by storm with nearly two thirds of American teenagers currently active on the app. Through a national security lens, Tik Tok is a giant red flag – Congress is advancing legislation to enable a nationwide ban over growing data-privacy concerns. But would a flat ban actually hurt more than it helps? This week, host Elisa welcomes Glenn Gerstell, former General Counsel at the National Security Agency. Together they examine Tik Tok's business model, what user data the company collects, and why concerns over transparency are legitimate. What does Tik Tok know about us? Is it just government employees that should be concerned? And is a nationwide flat ban just a slippery slope for future social media legislation?
