Podcasts about cheaper

Episode blog post with video, transcript, and more My guest for Episode #535 of the Lean Blog Interviews Podcast is Gregg Stocker, a seasoned Lean practitioner, consultant, and author. Over the past 30+ years, Gregg has worked across industries, including oil and gas, energy services, manufacturing, and construction, guiding both independent operators and major corporations on their Lean journeys. He is the author of Profitable at Any Price: Lean Thinking for Safer, Cheaper, and More Responsible Oil and Gas Production and is revising his earlier book Avoiding the Corporate Death Spiral. In this conversation, Gregg shares his Lean origin story, which began with exposure to Dr. W. Edwards Deming's teachings in college and later expanded through hands-on work with Toyota. We discuss the importance of daily Kaizen, the influence of Deming's philosophy of profound knowledge, and why psychological safety and systems thinking are essential to effective Lean leadership. Gregg also reflects on his experiences helping organizations in high-risk industries such as oil and gas. He explains how Lean thinking can simultaneously drive improvements in safety, cost, and reliability -- showing that these are not trade-offs, but outcomes of a stronger system. Listeners will hear stories of transformation, lessons from Toyota, and practical insights on structured problem-solving, leadership behaviors, and building a culture where people feel safe speaking up. Whether you work in energy, healthcare, manufacturing, or any other sector, Gregg's insights are broadly applicable. This episode is a reminder that Lean isn't just about tools -- it's about leadership, systems thinking, and creating conditions for continuous improvement. Questions, Notes, and Highlights: How did you first get introduced to Lean and Deming? What did you learn from Toyota about shifting from TQM to daily Kaizen? How did senior leaders in your early company become engaged in Lean? What were your experiences attending Dr. Deming's four-day seminars? Which of Deming's principles do you wish leaders better understood today? How do systems thinking and psychology apply in high-risk industries like oil and gas? What are some Lean approaches to improving both safety and performance? What's the origin story behind your book Profitable at Any Price? How do oil and gas companies typically react to fluctuating prices, and how does Lean help? How has Lean adoption in oil and gas evolved over the past 15 years? When starting a Lean transformation, what should leaders do -- and avoid? How do you define better problem solving, beyond just tools and structure? What leadership behaviors help create psychological safety and encourage people to speak up? Can you tell us about your upcoming books and where your writing is headed next? This podcast is part of the #LeanCommunicators network.

Scott tells us where he grew up, how he got into Dumpters, and what made him start a business with his best friend designing and building portals. With a price tag of $15,000, what would be cheaper, a full 1-ton axle swap build or simply adding some portals?

Most real estate investors assume buying existing rentals is the fastest path to cash flow. But what if you could build them cheaper, and end up with a property that performs better long-term? That's exactly what Tyler Casey discovered.On this episode, Tyler breaks down the strategy that's allowing him to out-build the market. He shares why the right floor plan can be a game-changer, how repeating the same blueprint cuts costs and saves time, and the small design details that dramatically reduce maintenance headaches down the road.We dive into the financing he's using, walk through the actual numbers on one of his recent builds, and compare new construction to rehabs, and why building can actually be the easier, smarter move.Tyler also takes us back to his beginnings, buying his first rentals at just 18, and shows how his approach has evolved into something far more scalable.Along the way, we unpack the hidden advantages of building vs. buying: tax benefits, lower operating costs, higher rent potential, better tenant quality, and even cheaper insurance.https://rentalincomepodcast.com/episode536Thanks To Our Sponsors:Ridge Lending Group - Get A Free 30-Minute Strategy Session With Caeli Ridge.MidSouth HomeBuyers – Turnkey Rentals In Memphis & Little Rock.

the blog postWhat does Lean healthcare really mean? It's more than tools like 5S, A3s, or huddle boards. Lean is a management system that depends on two pillars: respect for people and continuous improvement. Without both, attempts to copy Lean practices in healthcare fail.In this episode, Mark Graban—author of Lean Hospitals, Healthcare Kaizen, and The Mistakes That Make Us—explores how the Toyota Way philosophy applies to hospitals and health systems. He shares lessons from Toyota, Franciscan Health in Indianapolis, and other organizations proving that Lean leadership in healthcare is not about cost-cutting—it's about creating a culture of improvement.What You'll Learn About Lean Healthcare:Why Lean is a system, not a toolbox of methodsHow respect for people means designing systems that prevent mistakes, not blaming staffHow Kaizen in healthcare develops people while improving quality and safetyWhy suggestion boxes fail and daily improvement succeedsThe four goals of Kaizen: Easier, Better, Faster, Cheaper (in that order)How Lean leadership means coaching, not controllingWhy psychological safety and trust are essential for sustainable improvementKey Quotes from Mark:“Improvement happens at the speed of trust.”“The primary goal of Kaizen is to develop people first and meet goals second.”“A Lean environment doesn't cut costs through layoffs. It invests in people and meaningful work.”If you're a healthcare leader trying to reduce errors, engage staff, and build a lasting culture of improvement, this episode provides practical insights you can apply today.

Send us a textAn expert on Venture Capital shares why traditional VC math doesn't add up and how his team flips the model. Instead of paying inflated valuations and hoping for one breakout, they buy in early at favorable terms, use growth-hacking to add measurable value, and structure warrants for a second bite at a lower price.Key Takeaways:• Challenge the VC Norm – Paying 10× in hopes of 100× rarely works.• Early Entry Advantage – Secure low entry valuations before hype inflates prices.• Value Creation via Growth Hacking – Actively improve portfolio performance post-investment.• Use Warrants Strategically – Lock in the right to invest again at your target price.• Portfolio Mindset – Don't rely on just one “winner” to carry the fund.

Alyson Stoner is the founder and CEO of Movement Genius, a mental health platform designed to support child performers. Stoner started their career as a child star, acting in hundreds of projects as an actor, singer, and dancer. They got their big break as a dancer in Missy Elliot's “Work It” music video and went on to star in Disney Channel's Camp Rock, Cheaper by the Dozen, the Step Up movies, and many others. At age 17, after a decade of nonstop work and growing up in the spotlight, Stoner stepped away from performing to take care of their mental health. In rehab, they questioned whether they would have chosen to be an actor after realizing how much it affected their well-being—and wondered what their life would have been like if they had felt more supported as a kid in the entertainment industry. After realizing that their true passion was psychology, Alyson left Hollywood behind to study it. After gaining multiple certifications in the field, they founded Movement Genius with the goal of making mental health support more accessible and affordable online. They also created the Artist Wellbeing Essentials—a digital tool kit designed to support children performers. Today, Stoner is a fearless advocate for mental health, whether it's on their podcast, Dear Hollywood, or in their new memoir, Semi-Well-Adjusted Despite Literally Everything.Order the book here!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: Hi Dave & Jamison, Long time listener, first time google-form filler outer! I work in a hybrid role as a lead developer and manager of a small team (less than 5). I'm new to management and most of ny experience so far has been with smart, motivated engineers. . . UNTIL! My new recruit is driving me crazy, they are clearly very capable, but just do not do the work. They are frequently late for work, frequently sign off early, and constantly evasive when I ask for updates. I have spoken to them about these issues a bunch, and everytime they are apologetic and say they “have some personal issues but are working on it” - and nothing changes. Urgh! I am pretty sure I will have to fire them, but I feel terrible about it! I know I can't keep them on and pay them to do nothing, but what's the best way to let somebody go? How do I break the news to the rest of the team? How do I avoid feeling bad for the rest of my life? Yours guiltily, Anon A listener named “erm what the sigma” asks, Do you have any advice on how to reduce the ramp-up time when context switching? I've always felt like context switching comes at a high cost for me—it just takes so long for me to mentally shift between tasks. This wasn't much of a problem before, but I've recently become a tech lead and now my calendar is cluttered with meetings (why did I ask for this again??). I'm struggling to complete my coding stories because just as I hit my stride, I get pinged by someone on my team to help them or have to jump into yet another meeting. pls send help

Bryan Murphy, CEO of Smartling, confronts a $40 billion industry stuck in the slow lane, the world of translation. Most companies still handle translations like it's 1999: manual, expensive, and painfully slow. Bryan saw AI as the game changer that could rewrite the rules, but integrating it wasn't a walk in the park. He shares how Smartling harnessed AI to not just cut costs and speed up translation but to finally boost quality close to human-level precision without losing control over brand voice or nuance. Yet, making this leap meant upheaval: reorganizing teams, hiring AI experts, and establishing ruthless R&D discipline to separate winning ideas from distractions. Thanks for tuning in!

Adi is an addiction & mental health expert, and founder of IGNTD. Nick is an actor, father, and advocate for conscious masculinity. They are also two dads doing the work of taking so much personal responsibility for their growth as men and fathers.We sat down to talk with Adi and Nick about: finding self-compassion and what it looks like to do the conscious work of repairing as a parent how to avoid the trap of parentified dynamics with your partner the often unaddressed desire to feel valued as men and whether or not that equates to ‘needing' the women in their lives reimagining privilege in a society where we've lost track of what it means to support one another in community..and so much more!

Why do drugs like Ozempic cost $1500 in the U.S., but only $147 in Canada? Most people don't know about the invisible middleman making more than 10 of the top drug companies combined.Healthcare may seem like a broken system, but it's actually not broken at all. It works great; it's just not working for you. Pharmacy benefit managers use their contracts to make massive profits off of everyone.PBMs may appear to be helpful. They negotiate lower prices for manufacturing companies, reduce out-of-pocket expenses, and handle logistics between employers and insurance companies. Pharmacy benefit managers charge the employer a very high price and pay the pharmacies a very low price, pocketing the difference. This is known as spread pricing. PBMs decide which drugs your plan covers, how much you'll pay out of pocket, which pharmacy you can use, and when or if you'll get your medication.Cheaper and better drugs are often denied if PBMs don't get a big enough rebate. They can even force you to fill your prescriptions at specific PBM pharmacies for more profit.Drug companies have to give PBMs a kickback or “rebate” to get their drugs covered by insurance companies. To afford this rebate, drug companies raise the list price, and PBMs promote the drug that gives them the most profit.Pharmacy benefit managers own insurance companies and pharmacies. Three of the largest PBMs control 80% of the medications in the U.S. Surprisingly, PBMs don't exist in other countries.
