Mojca Briščik je kariero začela kot novinarka, a se je po letih nabiranja izkušenj na številnih medijih, od Radia Capris do Radia Ekspres in POP TV-ja, pričela razgledovati še po drugih izzivih. Bila je direktorica blagovnice Maximarket, direktorica korporativnega komuniciranja v Mercatorju, zdaj pa že več kot osem let vodi Slovensko oglaševalsko zbornico, kjer predseduje tudi priznanemu oglaševalskemu festivalu Zlati boben. IzobrazbaMojca Briščik je diplomirana novinarka ter magistra ekonomije, ki je iz lastnega zanimanja do trajnostnega razvoja uspešno zaključila tudi intenziven osem tedenski program »Business Sustainability Management« Univerze v Cambridgeu, Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL). Mojca Briščik je izvršna direktorica Slovenske oglaševalske zbornice (SOZ) in predsednica mednarodnega kreativnega festivala Zlati boben. Ponaša se s široko paleto znanj in izkušenj, še zlasti s področja korporativnega komuniciranja, marketinga in odnosov z javnostmi, ter tudi vodenja in upravljanja prodaje na drobno. Karierno pot je začela še v času študija kot radijska in televizijska novinarka ter radijska voditeljica in snovalka radijskih oddaj. Svojo medijsko pot pa je zaključila na mestu urednice Radia glas Ljubljane. Poklicno pot je po 17 letih aktivnega delovanja v medijih nadgradila kot direktorica blagovnice Maxi. Po štirih uspešnih letih je nato prevzela mesto direktorice korporativnega komuniciranja v Mercatorju, ki je zajemalo, ne zgolj komuniciranje z vsemi deležniki v matični državi, temveč tudi koordiniranje vseh PR služb po tujih trgih (skupno šestih) kjer je družba delovala. Pod njenim vodstvom je družba Mercator, za področje družbene odgovornosti, prejela tudi mednarodno nagrado European Business Award. Trenutno je zaposlena na Slovenski oglaševalski zbornici, kjer ji je Upravni odbor spomladi potrdil že tretji mandat. Najljubša knjiga: Nekoč sem bila pravi knjižni molj, že v srednji šoli so se mi posmehovali, ker sem brala knjige Antona Trstenjaka, a se zanje nisem ravno zmenila. Danes pa se na moji nočni omarici ali v potovalni torbi znajdejo predvsem strokovne knjige, po romanih pa le še redko sežem. Iz tega obdobja (izpred več kot 15-imi leti) izstopa predvsem eden, to je delo z naslovom 2.999 SIT francoskega pisca Frédérica Beigbederja, ki je zagotovo pomembno vzbudilo zanimanje za svet v katerem tičim še danes. Sicer pa … tisti, ki me dobro poznajo vedo, da imam rada 'praholovce' v obliki knjige. Sem generacija, ki še vedno vzame v roke ne samo knjigo, temveč tudi časnike in revije.Najljubša serija: Razdvojena med serijo Peaky Blinders in The gentleman, režiserja Guyja Ritchieja. Hobiji: Sem aktivna oseba, kardio vadbe sem zamenjala za vadbe za krepitev mišične mase (starostno pogojena odločitev), sprehodi s psom so obvezni in pa rada prebedim noči ob kakem dobrem filmu ali seriji. Najbolj me nasmejijo francoske ali španske komedije in skandinavski trilerji. Nesporno pa noči ne bi prebedela zaradi grozljivk.Najljubša hrana: Mediteranska kuhinja.Najljubši podjetnik: Od tujih je to zagotovo Angela Ahrendts, nekoč direktorica Burberryja, nato podpredsednica v Apple-u, odgovorna za prodajo, danes predavateljica in predsednica upravnega odbora »Save the Children International« - izjemno karizmatična ženska, ki zna povezovati in spodbujati ljudi s katerimi deluje tako da dosežejo svoj največji potencial.Od domačih pa Blaž Brodnjak, predsednik uprave NLB, ki zna reči bobu bob - več pa ni potrebno dodati.Najljubši app: LinkedIn (službeno), Podcasts (zasebno)Zaključni nauki: · Družina naj bo vedno na prvem mestu. · Ne dajaj nasvetov, če te zanje eksplicitno ne prosijo.· Poskusi ohraniti moralni kompas.

Susan and Scott are joined by special guest Tamara Copple, Product Owner for Children International, to talk about Working with Developers. Key take-aways: When working with developers (or software engineers), do your homework. Bring your research and be prepared to share what you've learned about the problem or opportunity to get the developer up to speed. Provide business context. As a business analysis professional, you may understand more about the business than the developer. Offering this context can provide important background information needed to perform work. Know your audience. Understand what your developers need from you and how they want it delivered. Sometimes, this may not be the way you have learned to write requirements. But knowing how to write (or communicate) with developers will result in better outcomes! Understand your technology. You don't need to know how to code! But understanding the features and limitations of the technologies you work with can help you communicate better with developers.

Uncle Si calls Jep and Jessica Robertson into the duck call room so he can personally ask them what happened in that limo. Martin hypes up Jep about his son playing flag football and even says he could go pro!

Jep bemoans the sad state of toilet paper quality in hotels across the country. Jep and Jessica talk about their adoption journey with their son, Gus, and share encouragement for anyone considering this step for their family. Martin asks Jep and Jessica fan questions like if they would dye their hair matching colors — and which Robertson man dyes his beard! Plus, who are their celebrity crushes?

Four international aid agencies have suspended their humanitarian programs in Afghanistan in response to the Taliban-run administration's order to stop female employees from working. Save the Children International says the United Nations is leading efforts to negotiate with the Taliban over the issue.
Humanitarian reform, here we go again!? Remember the Grand Bargain or the Charter for Change? Reform is necessary to improve our work, but how do we know it worked? What have we learned from past reform successes and failures? Now we have the 'Pledge for Change 2030', led by a Somalia organisation, Adeso; some of the world's biggest aid and development organisations (CARE International, Christian Aid, Plan International, Save the Children International, and Oxfam International) have signed commitments "to create closer partnerships with local and national organisations in a drive to shift more power, decision-making, and money to the places worst affected by crisis and poverty". You can read more about the Pledge here. Lauren and Teia reflect on what's different (or not!) about these new commitments, bringing, as always, a healthy balance of skepticism and hope.

Today's conversation is extremely important for parents to hear as we talk about how young people are being targeted by drug cartels with deadly fake prescription pills. Clare Kramer is joined by Wendy Woolcock, the special agent in charge of the special operations division at the DEA and returning guest, Amy McCarthy, Clinical Social Worker at Boston Children's Hospital. Wendy explains the messaging and rising death toll behind the One Pill Can Kill initiative and how Mexican drug cartels are literally making a killing off fentanyl-laced pills. Wendy, Amy and Claire share how parents can protect their children and the importance of educating them about the fact that one pill can kill! IN THIS EPISODE: [00:45] The initiative behind One Pill Can Kill and the growing fentanyl epidemic [02:46] What is a lethal amount of fentanyl and why is fentanyl the new drug of choice [07:51] The process that these fake pills are being manufactured [12:33] What do these pills look like [14:33] What can parents do to protect their children and how to have this awkward conversations with your kid KEY TAKEAWAYS: We have seen two milligrams of fentanyl alone in one of these fake pills is a deadly dose of fentanyl and can kill an individual. That amount is equivalent to several pieces of salt or sugar on the end of a pencil tip. That means a very, very small amount can be lethal, hence, the statement one pill can kill. The DEA has found that along with the CDC that four out of 10 pills can contain a lethal dose of fentanyl. Last year, the CDC stated around 108,000 people died as a result of an unintentional overdose death. This is not simply a law enforcement problem, and it is definitely not a law enforcement solution. It is a unified effort that needs to be taken on by parents, schools, and leaders in our communities. And we have to educate children about this serious threat.

Transcript Reading Time: 5 minutesEpisode Overview:Fact: ~9,000 children under five years old die every day from pneumonia or diarrhea, two diseases that could stop being fatal if they had access to a soap bar and learned how to wash their hands. Sounds simple, right? This episode is a conversation with the founder of Clean The World. They have distributed ~75 million free bars of recycled soap to children and mothers across the globe in 127 countries and have been saving lives for 13 years. This great company was founded by social entrepreneur Mr. Shawn Seipler. Clean The World is on a mission to reduce the millions of deaths worldwide caused by lack of hygiene. How? Brilliantly using old soap from hotels and giving it a new life. Clean The World collects, melts, reforms, and packages partially used soap. Gross? Nope! Countless young lives have been saved by Clean The World soap. How many times do you use soap inside your hotel bathroom? Once? Twice maybe? It's a huge waste, right?

This was the beginning of Clean The World. Shawn developed a plan for ~8,000 hotels to pay Clean The World to take away their used soap. He recycled this soap and donated it to young millions of young kids in need of hygiene. It turns out that repurposing soap is saving lives.
