Nearly one-third of the world's population lacks reliable access to safe water or sanitation, with serious consequences for health, education, and economic opportunity. This talk examines the global water crisis through the lenses of policy, finance, and development, asking why access remains uneven despite available solutions. Drawing on the experience of Water.org, founded in 2009 by Matt Damon and Gary White, the discussion explores financial innovation and cross-sector partnerships as pathways to expanding access. Looking ahead to the 2026 UN Water Conference, the talk considers long-term, scalable approaches to improving public health, fairness, and shared prosperity worldwide. Speakers Gary White, Co-founder and CEO, Water.org Moderated by Gareth Wynn, Chief Communications Officer, TAQA
"If we all came together to solve the problem, to solve the issue, and work together — those are the areas that we would see the most improvement." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, OcuTrap, and Strategies to Reunite Lost Cats with Families Certification Workshop and Increasing Your Impact With Targeted TNR Certification Workshop. The kittens are coming. We know it every spring, but this year, Shelter Animals Count has the data to prove exactly how big the wave will be — and which organizations will feel it hardest. If your shelter or rescue isn't already ramping up fosters, supplies, and community outreach, this episode is your signal to start today. Tori Fugate is the Director of Communications for Shelter Animals Count — now a program of the ASPCA — and she has spent more than a decade at the intersection of animal welfare and strategic communications. Before joining SAC, she was Chief Communications Officer at KC Pet Project, where she helped transform one of the country's most visible municipal shelters into a national model for innovative, lifesaving work. Tori joins host Stacy LeBaron to unpack the latest findings from SAC's 2025 Annual Data Report — including the striking reality that 59% of all cats entering shelters in 2025 were kittens under five months of age. They dig into how to use zip-code-level intake data to target foster recruitment and community outreach before the floodgates open, and why creative thinking — think paper collars with QR codes to crowdfund spay/neuter costs — may be just as important as resources and policy. They also tackle one of the industry's most alarming trends: only 23% of cats entering shelters in 2025 arrived already spayed or neutered, nearly 3% below pre-pandemic levels. Tori explains how SAC's groundbreaking Altered Status at Intake Report is helping organizations understand where access-to-care gaps are widest — and what shelter communicators can do right now to start closing them.

A lot of healthtech thought leadership is interchangeable. Swap out the logo, change the company name, and much of the time, nobody would notice. In this episode what great thought leadership looks like and how it happens. Adrianna Hosford is the Chief Communications Officer and Head of Marketing at Artera, the AI patient communication platform that just won Best in Class. She came up through corporate reputation at Ketchum, one of the world's premier PR firms, which means she brings a reputational lens to everything, and that changes how you see the problem.We talk about why healthtech's risk-averse culture is directly responsible for the forgettable content flooding every channel, and why that problem is only going to get worse as AI-generated content becomes the norm.Adrianna also shares some genuinely sharp examples from outside healthcare, including the Chase Sapphire launch in the middle of the Occupy Wall Street movement, which is one of the most interesting brand stories I have heard in a long time. And she walks through the three-pillar marketing strategy her team at Artera uses: making the customer the hero, driving the narrative with data, and putting human voices front and center.If you have ever wondered why your brand is not cutting through, or why your thought leadership feels like it lands with a thud, this conversation will give you a clear framework for thinking about it and some practical ways to close the gap.Key Topics Covered:"(00:00)" Introduction"(03:33)" Why most healthtech marketing is interchangeable"(04:20)" The three-level spectrum of thought leadership"(06:22)" Lessons from outside healthcare"(08:58)" Why it is harder for companies selling products to maintain authentic thought leadership"(10:14)" Using a belief system and mission to differentiate software products"(11:30)" The role of thought leadership in Account-Based Marketing"(13:33)" Case Study: Launching Chase Sapphire in 2009"(19:51)" Advice for CMOs "(21:58)" Artera's three pillar strategy"(23:51)" Four key takeaways for healthtech marketers to improve brand presenceIf you are interested in discussing this or any other topic, let's have a chat.

This week on The Ana Cruz Show, we're talking about the life-saving importance of blood donation—and why the Latino community plays a critical role. Only 7–8% of Latinos in the U.S. donate blood, and that number needs to change. Ana Cruz is joined by Marcela Fajardo, Chief Communications Officer for the American Red Cross North Texas Region, to discuss the realities behind these numbers, the blood donation process, common myths, and their personal experiences with donating. This episode is both educational and deeply personal—and it's a reminder that a simple act can save lives.
Send a textIn this episode of Deconstructing Comp, Yvonne Guibert and Rafael Gonzalez talk with Liva Rivera, Chief Communications Officer at Hamilton, Miller, and Birthisel Law Firm, for a lively conversation about the power of social media in building relationships, expanding professional networks, and supporting mentorship within the workers' compensation community.Liva shares how platforms like LinkedIn have evolved from simple professional profiles into powerful tools for connection. Rather than approaching social media with a rigid strategy, she explains how authenticity, curiosity, and consistency have helped her build meaningful relationships across the industry. What began as casual online engagement eventually led to real-world collaborations, friendships, and opportunities, demonstrating that the workers' compensation community is often much smaller and more connected than people realize.The conversation also explores the human side of social media. Liva discusses how showing up online can sometimes invite criticism or skepticism, but she encourages professionals not to let that stop them from participating. Social media, when used thoughtfully, can amplify voices, foster mentorship, and help newer professionals find their place in the industry. For those who feel unsure about posting or engaging, Liva offers a refreshing perspective: you don't need a perfectly curated plan, just start joining the conversation.Yvonne, Rafael, and Liva also dive into the importance of mentorship and community, highlighting how social platforms can bridge generational gaps and help emerging leaders connect with experienced professionals. Whether it's sharing insights, celebrating successes, or simply supporting each other's work, these digital spaces can strengthen the professional fabric of our industry.If you've ever wondered how to use social media in a way that feels genuine, productive, and relationship-driven, this episode offers practical insights and plenty of inspiration. We talked about Rise Professionals on the episode. Be sure to check out their website and their 2026 Annual Leadership Summit under events. ¡Muchas Gracias! Thank you for listening.

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sat down with Joshua Altman, founder of beltway.media, to unpack what corporate communication really means in 2026 and why it has quietly become one of the most misunderstood leadership functions inside modern organizations. Joshua describes his work as a fractional chief communications officer, a role that sits above individual campaigns, tools, or channels and focuses instead on perception, trust, and consistency across everything a company says and does. Our conversation starts by challenging the assumption that communication is something you "turn on" when a product launches or a crisis hits. Joshua explains why corporate communication is not project-based and not owned by marketing alone. It touches internal updates, investor messaging, brand signals, packaging, email, social platforms, and even the tools teams choose to use every day. If it communicates with internal or external audiences and shapes how the company is perceived, it belongs in the communications function. When that function is missing or fragmented, confusion and noise tend to fill the gap. We also explored why communication has arguably become harder, not easier, despite the explosion of collaboration tools. Email was meant to simplify work, then Slack was meant to replace email, and now AI assistants are transcribing every meeting and surfacing more content than anyone can realistically process. Joshua makes a strong case for simplicity, clarity, and focus, arguing that organizations need to pick channels intentionally and use them well rather than spreading messages everywhere and hoping something lands. Technology naturally plays a big role in the discussion. From the shift away from tape-based media and physical workflows to the accessibility of live global collaboration and affordable computing power, Joshua reflects on how dramatically the workplace has changed since he started his career in video news production. He also shares a grounded view on AI, where it adds real value in speeding up research and reducing busywork, and where human judgment and storytelling still matter most. Toward the end of the conversation, we get into ROI, a question every leader eventually asks. Joshua offers a practical way to think about it, starting with the simple fact that founders, operators, and technical leaders get time back when they no longer have to manage communications themselves. From there, alignment, clarity, and consistency compound over time, even if the impact is not always visible in a single metric. As organizations look ahead and try to make sense of AI, platform shifts, and ever-shorter attention spans, are we investing enough thought into how our companies actually communicate, or are we still mistaking volume for clarity?

When you think about the technology that connects our world—the phones in our hands, the cars we drive, the networks powering everything around us—there's a good chance Qualcomm is behind it.Jim's guest this week is Don McGuire, Global Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Communications Officer of Qualcomm. Since becoming CMO in 2021, Don has helped transform Qualcomm's narrative, elevating the company from “the tech behind the tech” into one of the most respected innovation brands in the world, while turning Snapdragon into a globally recognized consumer brand.Before Qualcomm, Don spent 25 years shaping the wireless ecosystem at companies like AT&T Wireless, Intel, Kyocera, Leap Wireless, and Amp'd Mobile—giving him a rare, end-to-end perspective on how technology, brands, and markets evolve together.For nearly 40 years, Qualcomm has been the engine driving wireless innovation, from the earliest days of mobile to today's breakthroughs in 5G, AI, automotive, and beyond. It's one of those rare companies whose technology quietly powers modern life—and the numbers tell the story: roughly $40 billion in annual revenue and a market cap of about $180 billion.Recorded live at the ANA Masters of Marketing in Orlando and powered by TransUnion, this conversation explores what it truly means to takes to build a brand that stands for innovation.---Learn more, request a free pass, and register at iab.com/almPromo Code for $500 of ticket prices: ALMCMOPOD26---This week's episode is brought to you by Deloitte, TransUnion and the IAB.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We also cover what to expect in 2026.Follow Marta on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martabowles/Follow NielsenIQ on Linkedin at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/nielseniq/posts/?feedView=allConsumer habits report download : https://nielseniq.com/global/en/insights/report/2024/mid-year-consumer-outlook-guide-to-2025/Here's what we asked her : Marta, let's start by understanding what these reports are, when did you release them and what data inputs went into them?Your report says 2026 will be defined by consumer caution—even among financially thriving households. Why do you think this cautious mindset is sticking around, and how should brands respond to this ‘insurance mentality' consumers seem to have?Two-thirds of consumers say brand trust is very important. In a world where ‘less is more,' how can brands earn and maintain that trust—especially when shoppers are cutting back and being more intentional with their purchases?AI is rewriting product discovery, but there's still distrust in AI-driven shopping. How do you see this tension playing out? Will consumers embrace AI as a shopping assistant, or will skepticism slow adoption?You talk about retail media networks and creator commerce as game-changers for visibility. How do you see the balance shifting between traditional retail strategies and these new digital-first approaches in 2026?Historically, shopping started with intent — increasing, platform like TikTok Shop show us that it now begins with inspiration. How is the consumer changing how they shop?Private label is no longer just a trade-down option—it's becoming a first choice. What's driving this shift, and how should national brands rethink their competitive playbook?Your report mentions anti-obesity medications, functional snacking, and commodity volatility as catalysts for change. Which of these trends do you think will have the biggest impact on CPG innovation in 2026—and why?We see a note on consumers to prioritize core expenses over many CPG items own 2026. What does this mean?Marta, with all the uncertainty and change consumers are navigating, what makes you most excited about 2026? And why should brands and retailers see this as a year of opportunity rather than just challenge?CPG Guys Website: http://CPGguys.comFMCG Guys Website: http://FMCGguys.comSheCOMMERCE Website: https://shecommercepodcast.com/Rhea Raj's Website: http://rhearaj.comLara Raj in Katseye: https://www.katseye.world/DISCLAIMER: The content in this podcast episode is provided for general informational purposes only.

The energy at AWS re:Invent 2025 in Las Vegas was undeniable. The narrative has shifted decisively from the passive "Industrial Copilots" of last year to active, autonomous Agentic AI. Everywhere you looked, the talk was of autonomous swarms, "Supervisor Agents," and the new Strands Agents SDK empowering developers to build digital workers that can reason and act.However, as I (Colin Masson of ARC Advisory Group) noted in my recent Top 10 Takeaways for Industrial AI from AWS re:Invent 2025, there is a stark divergence between the "hyperscaler dream" and the "brownfield reality." For manufacturers dealing with 20-year-old assets, proprietary protocols, and disparate silos, building these agents often hits a brick wall—the "Factory Wall." An AI agent is only as intelligent as the context it is fed, and in most factories, that context is trapped in the machine layer.To explore how the industry is breaking through this barrier, I sat down at re:Invent with Joe Rosing, Worldwide Head of Smart Manufacturing at AWS, and Torey Penrod-Cambra, Co-Founder and Chief Communications Officer at HighByte. We discussed the critical role of Industrial DataOps in untangling the mess of industrial data to fuel the next generation of AI.Would you like to be a guest on our growing podcast?Do you have an intriguing or thought provoking topic you'd like to discuss on our podcast?

In this special compilation of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings together two powerhouse conversations that define what it means to live with purpose, resilience, and unrelenting drive.First, Bruce Cardenas takes us through his extraordinary path — from the Marines and LAPD to becoming the Chief Communications Officer at Quest Nutrition, and now a driving force behind brands like Legendary Foods. Bruce shares how his discipline, attention to detail, and relentless commitment to service opened doors he never expected. But beyond his professional success, Bruce's story is about people — the power of building authentic relationships, leading with gratitude, and showing up for others without expectation. His journey reminds us that fulfillment doesn't come from chasing titles but from finding ways to contribute and lift others along the way.Then, Jason Redman, a decorated Navy SEAL, joins Ben to share his story of survival, leadership, and the “Overcome Mindset” that turned one of life's darkest moments into his greatest source of strength. After being severely wounded in combat, Jason refused to be defined by his injuries. Instead, he built a new mission: helping others rise through their own ambushes — the unexpected challenges that test our purpose and perseverance. His story is not just about war; it's about the fight we all face in life, and the power of preparation, awareness, and relentless belief in your mission.Together, these conversations capture the essence of The Burn — the inner fire that pushes YOU to serve, to overcome, and to keep showing up when life demands your very best.************************************Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/KOBRaWl5P8UListen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

In this very first Inside the NDA episode, Jeremy sits down with Lindsay Thomas Jr., Chief Communications Officer for the National Deer Association, for an eye-opening discussion on how deer see, smell, and survive in the wild. Lindsay breaks down fascinating insights into deer vision—how their broader peripheral view, ability to see in low light, and rapid information processing give them a huge advantage over hunters. They also dive into why scent control and cover matter more than just camo, and how understanding these details can elevate your time in the woods. Beyond the science, this episode highlights why the NDA's mission matters now more than ever. Jeremy and Lindsay discuss deer behavior patterns, how hunters can prepare both physically and mentally for success, and the importance of practicing in the same gear you'll hunt in. Lindsay also shares how NDA programs like Field to Fork and local chapters are strengthening the hunting community and creating opportunities for mentorship, recruitment, and education. Whether you're chasing whitetails this fall or looking to give back to the next generation of hunters, this conversation is packed with insights to make you sharper and more connected in the field. So, grab your gear, sit back, and join us on this episode as we Antler Up! www.antlerupoutdoors.com www.tethrdnation.com www.huntworthgear.com www.sportsmensempire.com https://thebowtiquellc.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Washday Woosah, BA Fam! It's the Sunday slow-down you need, something to listen to while you're doing the laundry, deep conditioning, or simply enjoying a nice quiet moment of relaxation before the Sunday scaries start to hit. If you needed a sign to play matchmaker for your friends, this episode is it! Gabrielle and I were "set up" by a mutual friend during the pandemic when he realized we were two media mavens juggling our careers and motherhood in New York and somehow had never crossed paths. Gabrielle is a multi-hyphenate who's lead communications at technology giants like Disney ABC, Comcast NBCUniversal, CBS Corporation and Amazon. She's a college professor at NYU and Columbia and a proud wife and mother of two. Today, I got to dive deep with Gabrielle who shares her inspiring journey from humble beginnings in Los Angeles to becoming the Chief Communications Officer at Hachette Book Group. She discusses the importance of mentorship, the impact of her upbringing on her career, and the significance of diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Gabrielle also emphasizes the need for work-life balance, her financial strategies, and her commitment to teaching and empowering the next generation. The discussion highlights the challenges and triumphs of navigating a successful career while being a dedicated mother and partner. I hope you're loving these Washday Woosah episodes as much as I am!
