Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles take a closer look at Donald Trump's encounter with Xi Jinping and what China may have learned from a president they see as unusually susceptible to flattery, especially when it comes to the delicate question of Taiwan. They also dissect Melania Trump's new women's network, the growing role of billionaires around the White House, and the extraordinary rise of Kimberly Guilfoyle from Fox News to ambassador to Greece, including the business and personal relationships now surrounding her diplomatic role. Then, the conversation turns to Trump's escalating fight with the press and the uncertain future of CNN as its ownership changes hands, before Wolff and Coles weigh in on the memoirs of Bob Chapek and Ari Emanuel and what they reveal about a rapidly changing media and entertainment industry. #ad INCOGNI Deal: To get an exclusive 60% off an annual Incogni plan, go to https://incogni.com/beast

The Product Experience
How to fix your product roadmap — Matt Feczko (Director of Product Ops, Ocado Technology)

The Product Experience

Matt Feczko is director of product operations at Ocado, the UK grocery technology company whose warehouse robots and delivery automation now run for retailers including Kroger in the US and Coles in Australia. He spent the first half of his career as a customer-facing product manager, starting on SharePoint and Office at Microsoft before moving to the UK to join Skype and then four different startups over six years. A LinkedIn recruiter's typo — dropping a comma from his job title — led him to Ocado three and a half years ago, where his remit has since expanded to cover both product and engineering operations. Talking to host Randy Silver backstage at MTPcon London, he explains how he replaced Ocado's roadmap planning process, rebuilt its Jira taxonomy from scratch, and built a product management skills framework that other functions have since copied without being asked.Key takeawaysOcado's roadmap problem wasn't a lack of roadmaps, it was too many of them, rebuilt by hand every quarter. Before Feczko joined, product teams spent two months of every three-month cycle remaking roadmap slides in Google Slides, with no shared document explaining what the company was building or why, and no way for anyone outside the planning meetings to weigh in.He traced that chaos to a single root cause: an inconsistent Jira taxonomy. Different teams used "epics" to mean different things, some nesting parent epics inside parent epics, so there was no agreed definition of what a feature or an initiative actually was. Feczko fixed the hierarchy first, using Denise Tilles and Melissa Perri's book Product Operations as his reference, before touching the roadmap process at all — his team nicknamed the project the "Jira Revolution".The hard part wasn't designing the new structure, it was getting roughly 3,000 developers to adopt it. Feczko frames that adoption problem as the actual job of product operations: not producing an artefact, but changing how a large organisation works, thinks and describes its own output.Two years on, Ocado has replaced its quarterly roadmap slide decks with an internal app, built on top of Jira data, and Feczko is aiming to run the next planning cycle with zero slides. His team also worked with finance to translate operational metrics — such as items added per basket, or driver deliveries per shift — into the financial value each initiative is expected to produce, so planning conversations use the same language as the business case.To answer a question Ocado's product managers couldn't answer for themselves — what "good" looks like in the role — Feczko built a 12-skill framework across four themes, including execution, influence and strategy. He combined an existing Reforge framework with his CPO's own view of the job and his own 15 years of experience, then spent six months negotiating the exact wording with the wider team before any of it shipped.The skill Feczko insisted on calling "storytelling and evangelising", over his CPO's preferred "effective communication", has become the framework's anchor. His argument: the ability to tell a clear story about a product is itself evidence of every other skill, because it requires command of the data, a defined strategy and the ability to prioritise.The framework's real test came when other functions adopted it unprompted. Engineering, roughly 2,000 people, built its own version, as did design and data — keeping Feczko's four themes but writing skill definitions specific to each craft. That took total usage from around 150 product people to roughly 3,000 across the wider organisation.One skill, product adoption, was added specifically because Ocado's product managers didn't see driving adoption as part of their job — they considered their job done once a feature shipped, and expected the business to work out how to use it. Feczko flags this as a gap worth checking for in any company's own skills work, whatever it ends up being called: he expects most will need their own version, along the lines of "value realisation".Feczko's rule of thumb for when a company needs a dedicated product operations function is somewhere around 30 to 40 product managers, though he says the pressure shows up earlier: even at 10 people split across teams, a cross-functional roadmap with real dependencies is where the gap first becomes visible.Asked what to do first, his advice is to resist fixing everything at once. Product operations, he says, is the "connective tissue" of an organisation: find where there's tension, solve that one problem fully, then move to the next — because switching between half-solved problems just turns the job into whack-a-mole.Chapters(00:00) Slides are dead for product planning(00:26) Backstage at MTPcon London(00:49) From computer science nerd to Microsoft PM(02:02) The Skype mafia(02:58) What Ocado actually builds(04:38) How a LinkedIn typo led to Ocado's product ops job(07:14) The minimum viable bureaucracy problem(08:14) The Jira Revolution(11:46) Killing the roadmap slide deck(12:58) Translating metrics into value(14:43) Building a skills framework for product managers(17:52) Do skills differ across platform and customer teams(19:40) Storytelling and evangelising as the master skill(20:38) Using the framework for promotion and fairness(22:29) Scaling the framework to 3,000 people(23:43) How universal is the framework beyond Ocado(24:53) Vibe-coding the skills tool with AI(26:34) When does a company need product ops(28:24) Product ops in the age of vibe-coded apps(29:58) Product ops as the connective tissue(31:37) Proving the value of a thankless job(32:46) Bringing Ocado's product community together(34:35) Wrap-upReferencedOcado — https://www.ocadogroup.comProduct Operations: How Successful Companies Build Better Products at Scale, Melissa Perri and Denise Tilles — https://www.amazon.com/Product-Operations-successful-companies-products-ebook/dp/B0CKFKX94ZReforge — https://www.reforge.comWe're refreshing The Product Experience and want your input.

Terry Moran joins Joanna Coles on the Daily Beast Podcast to discuss his recent trip to Iowa, where voters are growing increasingly frustrated with Donald Trump over the rising cost of living, soaring energy prices, and a shrinking sense of possibility. Moran reveals what he learned from farmers and young people in a state that once embraced Trump, and why their dissatisfaction may not translate into renewed faith in the Democratic Party. He also opens up about his departure from ABC News, the pressures facing legacy media, and why fear and corporate interests are shaping coverage of the White House. Moran and Coles examine the questions surrounding Trump's health, the influence of Natalie Harp, and Melania Trump's conspicuous absence from public life before turning to the chaos inside the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth's future, and the growing role of social media in the administration. As the conversation looks ahead to 2028, Moran weighs the potential of figures like Gavin Newsom, JB Pritzker, and Jon Ossoff, and explains why the next generation of political leaders may need to restore something Americans are increasingly missing: a sense of seriousness and possibility.

Mythes et réalité du commerce agentique

Le 9 septembre 2026, Visionary Marketing, avec le sujet du commerce agentique, a inauguré une nouvelle série de webinaires baptisée « Le numérique sans bullshit » avec le concours de Webikeo. Le principe est simple, prendre un sujet à la mode et le confronter aux chiffres plutôt qu’au discours marketing habituel. Pour ce premier épisode, je recevais Olivier Laborne, fondateur du cabinet Digital On Board et praticien du e-commerce depuis 1998. Passé par Leclerc, Intermarché puis Morgan, avant de lancer les premiers pilotes de Carrefour Drive, il a ensuite cofondé Storetail, la première société française de retail media, revendue à Criteo. Il conseille aujourd’hui des industriels et des retailers internationaux, dont l’australien Coles, et enseigne à l’IDRAC, à l’INSEEC et à NEOMA. Des machines qui achètent aux machines, la vérité sur le commerce agentique Voici donc mon résumé de ces échanges très riches. Vous le retrouverez dans le podcast du jour. Je mettrai également le fichier son du webinaire et la vidéo dans le billet afin de vous permettre de revoir ou réécouter cet événement. Un constat net mais à nuancer Selon Olivier, le constat de départ est que le commerce agentique, ces agents d’intelligence artificielle capables de rechercher, de comparer et parfois d’acheter à la place du consommateur, représentent une rupture réelle. Toutefois, la plupart des discours qui entourent cette avancée technologique, vont plus vite que les vrais usages. Au travers de cet entretien, Olivier a démonté trois mythes qui circulent depuis plusieurs mois sur l’autonomie totale des agents, la disparition du référencement classique et l’idée que cette révolution serait réservée aux très grands acteurs. Pour écouter l’enregistrement audio de ce webinaire sur le commerce agentique Entre conseil et délégation, une distinction à ne pas rater Avant de mesurer quoi que ce soit, encore faut-il s’entendre sur les mots. Olivier Laborne pose une distinction qui structure tout l’entretien. Dans un shopping assisté par IA, « l’humain décide et l’IA conseille », un peu comme un copilote d’avion qui multiplie les options, filtre les prix et compare les caractéristiques, mais laisse l’utilisateur cliquer et payer. Dans un achat entièrement délégué à un agent, la logique s’inverse, c’est la machine qui décide, sur la base d’un mandat fixé à l’avance (budget, délai, qualité), et l’humain se contente de valider, ou d’avoir prévalidé une bonne fois pour toutes. Cette distinction est cohérente avec le discours de Ben Hamilton de Base France sur notre chaîne. Le commerce agentique et son marché potentiel alléchant Olivier Laborne prend l’exemple d’un bouquet de fleurs qu’on désir offrir, l’acheteur et le bénéficiaire n’étant alors plus la même personne. Cette délégation totale existe déjà, dans un tout autre domaine, celui du trading haute fréquence, où environ 70 % des transactions boursières se font entre machines. C’est cette même logique, transposée au commerce de détail, qui inquiète et fascine à la fois. Les enseignes et le médias, puis les enseignes-médias Cette bascule ne sort pas de nulle part. Olivier Laborne rappelle que, pendant près d’un demi-siècle, les industriels déléguaient la distribution aux enseignes et la construction de leur image aux médias, un équilibre stable entre deux métiers séparés. Puis les enseignes sont devenues elles-mêmes des médias, monétisant linéaires, sites et données de caisse, ce qui a imposé aux marques un second péage, numérique cette fois. La disparition annoncée des cookies tiers a ouvert un troisième âge, celui où l’IA s’installe comme nouvel intermédiaire entre la marque et le client, avec un risque nouveau, celui de sortir des circuits de recommandation automatisés pour une marque dont les données produit ne seraient pas lisibles par une machine. C’est cette perspective, plus qu’une simple promesse de productivité, qui explique selon lui la ruée actuelle des entreprises vers le sujet. Mythe n°1, l’autonomie totale Premier mythe à tomber sous le bon sens des chiffres, celui d’un commerce déjà piloté par des machines en pleine autonomie. Mythe no.1 : l’autonomie totale. Bonne nouvelle, on pourra encore aller chercher sa pizza soi-même. Photo antimuseum.com Commençons par la tendance de fond. Celle-là, personne ne la conteste. Chez Shopify, le trafic généré par l’IA a été multiplié par huit au premier trimestre 2026, et les commandes issues de ces recherches ont presque été multipliées par treize, selon la transcription des résultats trimestriels rapportée par The Motley Fool. Plus d’un milliard de produits ont été restructurés pour devenir lisibles par des agents, un chiffre que le président de Shopify, Harley Finkelstein, met en avant en affirmant que l’IA est devenue le « langage naturel » de l’entreprise. Les résultats de Shopify en 2026 (Source : The Motley Fool) Pendant la Cyber Week 2025, les agents IA ont pesé sur 67 milliards de dollars de ventes, un cinquième des commandes mondiales, et les enseignes équipées de leur propre agent, comme Pandora, Shark Ninja ou Funko, ont vu leurs ventes progresser 32 % plus vite que les autres, d’après Salesforce. Sur l’ensemble des fêtes 2025, l’IA a pesé sur 262 milliards de dollars de dépenses en ligne, avec une hausse de 693 % du trafic en provenance des outils d’IA, selon les données croisées Adobe et Salesforce. Mais dès qu’on regarde la part réelle des achats confiés de bout en bout à un agent, sans validation humaine, les chiffres s’effondrent. Olivier Laborne situe cette part entre 0,2 et 0,8 % du commerce mondial, et entre 0,2 et 0,3 % pour l’achat totalement autonome. Une étude académique portant sur 973 sites marchands et 20 milliards de dollars de revenus cumulés, menée par les chercheurs Kaiser et Schulze, chiffre le trafic organique issu des IA génératives à moins de 0,2 % du trafic total, un trafic qui convertit moins bien que la recherche classique ou l’affiliation. Chez commercetools, 73 % des consommateurs utilisent déjà l’IA à un moment de leur parcours d’achat, mais seuls 13 % ont réellement conclu un achat après avoir été orientés par elle. Et selon Checkout.com, 3 % seulement des transactions passeraient aujourd’hui par un agent, pendant que 27 % des consommateurs ne font confiance à aucune organisation pour en opérer un et que 24 % ne délégueront jamais leurs achats à une IA. « Il faut sortir de ce fantasme comme quoi l’IA va tout décider à notre place », résume Olivier Laborne, pour qui l’IA joue aujourd’hui un rôle de filtre, pas de décideur. Il faut sortir de ce fantasme comme quoi l’IA va tout décider à notre place Là où l’achat autonome fonctionne déjà : le réappro Il existe pourtant des poches où l’achat autonome fonctionne déjà, mais elles restent étroites, des abonnements récurrents comme les lames de rasoir, des achats programmés déclenchés par un capteur, comme une cartouche d’imprimante qui signale son niveau bas, ou des transactions entre machines proches du trading haute fréquence. « Ce ne sont pas des achats impulsifs, ce ne sont pas des achats de découverte, ce sont des achats de réapprovisionnement », précise Olivier Laborne, qui invite à ne pas confondre ce réassort automatisé avec la promesse d’un commerce entièrement piloté par des agents. Fort de son expérience du drive et de l’alimentaire, il ajoute une distinction que les discours généralistes oublient souvent, celle qui sépare les produits qu’on ingère de ceux qu’on n’ingère pas. Les produits alimentaires et de santé obéissent à des logiques de confiance bien plus strictes que la lessive ou les piles, ce qui explique pourquoi les premiers acteurs grand public de l’automatisation ont concentré leurs efforts sur les catégories non alimentaires. Le B2B, souvent oublié de ces débats, mérite d’être cité lui aussi, une bonne moitié des échanges interentreprises transitent déjà par des flux automatisés de type EDI, hérités d’une vingtaine d’années de structuration des données de commande et de fiche produit. Le commerce agentique n’invente donc pas l’automatisation des transactions, il en déplace surtout le curseur vers de nouveaux acteurs et de nouveaux protocoles. Mythe n°2, le référencement est pas mort Deuxième mythe, celui d’un référencement classique balayé par l’arrivée du GEO, le generative engine optimization. Là encore, la réponse tient en une nuance plutôt qu’en un verdict tranché. Selon Adobe Analytics, sur plus d’un milliard de visites analysées en avril 2026, le trafic issu des IA génératives convertit 42 % mieux que le trafic non assisté. Mais une étude Amsive portant sur 54 sites ne trouve, elle, aucun avantage de conversion statistiquement significatif, avec 41 % des sites qui convertissent même moins bien via l’IA, laquelle ne représente que moins de 0,6 % du trafic total pour 90 % des sites étudiés. Prudence néanmoins, 54 sites est un petit échantillon, il faut donc prendre ces chiffres comme une tendance et une hypothèse de travail. « Il y a ce que les gens disent et ce qu’on constate derrière », résume Olivier Laborne, qui rappelle que le trafic IA reste, pour l’instant, un phénomène de niche comparé au poids historique du SEO. Choisir entre SEO et GEO ? Faut-il alors choisir entre les deux ? Non, répond sans détour Olivier Laborne, qui reprend une formule entendue auprès d’homologues asiatiques, on fait du SEO pour exister et du GEO pour être cité. Une analyse SE Ranking portant sur 129 000 domaines confirme d’ailleurs que l’autorité compte toujours autant à l’heure du GEO qu’à celle du SEO classique, les sites disposant de plus de 32 000 domaines référents ayant 3,5 fois plus de chances d’être cités par ChatGPT. Être déjà connu aide donc à être cité, ce qui ne facilite pas la tâche des marques qui démarrent. Qualité et structuration du contenu Le nerf de la guerre reste, selon lui, la qualité et la structuration du contenu, en particulier des fiches produit, un chantier sur lequel l’Institut du commerce travaille depuis plusieurs années avec ses adhérents, et qu’Olivier Laborne invite à approfondir auprès de Françoise Acca, qui suit ce sujet au sein de l’institut. Adobe estime qu’à peine 66 % d’une fiche produit américaine moyenne est aujourd’hui réellement lisible par une machine. Dans l'ensemble du secteur de la vente au détail aux États-Unis, le score moyen des pages d'accueil s'établit à 75 %. Cela signifie qu'environ un quart du contenu des pages d'accueil n'est pas optimisé pour les LLM. Les pages de catégorie (comme l'électroménager ou les vêtements pour hommes) affichent un niveau similaire, à 74 %. Un point de difficulté concerne les pages produits individuelles, qui se situent à 66 %. Les distributeurs possèdent des milliers de références, et nos données montrent qu'une grande partie de ce contenu est actuellement invisible pour les LLM.Adobe Digital Insights, par Vivek Pandya (directeur Adobe Digital Insights) avril 2026 : « AI traffic grows but retail sites lag in AI search visibility » Le risque inverse, celui de tout déléguer à l’IA pour produire du contenu, inquiète tout autant Olivier Laborne, qui met en garde contre le « slop », ces contenus génériques que les moteurs eux-mêmes finissent par écarter. Comme je l’ai suggéré au cours de notre échange, l’AI slop a au moins le mérite de succéder à un « human slop » qui n’avait rien à lui envier. Commerce agentique et écart entre usage et achats Mythe n°3, le commerce agentique serait réservé aux géants Troisième mythe enfin, celui d’un commerce agentique taillé sur mesure pour les seuls Amazon et Rakuten de ce monde, hors d’atteinte du commerçant de taille moyenne. Olivier Laborne relativise, en s’appuyant sur un parallèle avec le CRM ou l’ERP, deux technologies que tout le monde annonçait réservées aux grands comptes avant qu’un écosystème de prestataires n’en démocratise l’accès. Des plateformes comme BASE, qui travaille avec 30 000 marchands dans le monde et 150 en France, dont Kiabi, Back Market ou Spartoo, absorbent aujourd’hui la complexité technique des protocoles d’IA pour le compte de leurs clients. Il serait pourtant malhonnête de nier tout avantage structurel aux grands acteurs, dont les volumes de données leur servent déjà de laboratoire de recherche et développement, et dont la notoriété continue de peser lourd dans les citations des moteurs génératifs. Le risque, souligne Olivier Laborne, est de reproduire les biais déjà connus du référencement payant, où les budgets les plus larges captent l’essentiel de la visibilité. Des sigles à connaître, sans devenir informaticien Reste la question du vocabulaire technique. Faut-il, en tant que marketeur, maîtriser les protocoles MCP, ACP, UCP ou AP2 ? Olivier Laborne compare la situation à celle d’un logement raccordé au réseau électrique, on n’a pas besoin de connaître son abonnement en kilowatts pour brancher un appareil, mais on a besoin de comprendre les grandes masses en jeu. Le MCP, pour Model Context Protocol, lancé par Anthropic et confié à la Linux Foundation en décembre 2025, permet à un agent de conserver le contexte d’une plateforme à l’autre. L’ACP, porté par OpenAI et Stripe, gère le paiement conversationnel dans ChatGPT. L’UCP, adopté par Shopify depuis janvier 2026, standardise la découverte produit. L’AP2 enfin, lancé par Google puis confié à la FIDO Alliance, prouve cryptographiquement qu’un humain a bien autorisé une transaction, un enjeu sensible pour des catégories comme le luxe. Ces protocoles ne sont, insiste Olivier Laborne, que des « traducteurs universels » entre des systèmes qui, sinon, ne se comprendraient pas, un site marchand, une application mobile et un agent conversationnel ne parlant pas nativement la même langue. Inutile pour autant de vouloir tous les adopter, la bonne stratégie dépend d’abord de ce que l’on vend. Ce que font, et défont, les géants du commerce Sur le terrain, l’été 2025 et le début de l’année 2026 ont livré un premier bilan grandeur nature. OpenAI a lancé son Instant Checkout en septembre 2025, avec la promesse d’un paiement finalisé en quelques secondes, sans la moindre friction. Dès mars 2026, plusieurs marques avaient pourtant fait machine arrière, invoquant la perte de trafic direct, de données clients et de fidélité, et Shopify a tranché sans ambiguïté lors de ses résultats du premier trimestre 2026, les modèles de langage ne contourneront pas le système de paiement maison, a affirmé son président. Le bras de fer entre Amazon et Perplexity illustre la même tension. Amazon a lancé en mars 2026 un avertissement à la profession en bloquant l’agent Comet de Perplexity sur ses pages, au motif qu’il accédait aux comptes clients de façon dissimulée, tout en développant en parallèle son propre assistant Rufus, fort de 300 millions d’utilisateurs et d’environ 12 milliards de dollars de ventes incrémentales estimées sur 2025. Chacun maître chez soi « Chacun est maître chez soi », résumait Olivier Laborne le jour du webinaire, qui rapprochait la situation d’un concurrent qui installerait ses propres panneaux publicitaires à l’intérieur du magasin d’un autre. Mise à jour utile pour le lecteur, début août 2026, la cour d’appel a annulé cette injonction, jugeant que c’est l’utilisateur, et non Perplexity, qui « accède » techniquement au site d’Amazon. Le bras de fer est donc loin d’être clos, et la jurisprudence moins stable que ne le laissait penser l’entretien ou nos recherches préliminaires. Le PDG d’Amazon, Andy Jassy, reconnaît par ailleurs que la plupart des agents d’achat actuels manquent encore de personnalisation et fournissent des estimations de livraison ou de prix erronées, un aveu qui confirme l’écart persistant entre la promesse et l’expérience vécue. Les critiques de Jassy d’Amazon contre le commerce agentique : le géant du e-commerce a-t-il peur de la désintermédiation ? La question qui fâche, celle de la réglementation Interrogé en direct par une auditrice du webinaire sur le risque que l’AI Act européen vienne freiner le commerce agentique, Olivier Laborne a fourni une réponse qui conclut l’entretien de manière nette. La technologie reste selon lui trop instable pour qu’on tire des conclusions définitives, mais certains sujets, la maîtrise des données personnelles et la validation juridique d’un mandat donné à une machine, appelleront un encadrement plus strict. Il cite l’exemple d’un réapprovisionnement de matière première en B2B qu’il aurait lui-même refusé après coup pour un problème de qualité, preuve qu’un droit de rétractation face à la décision d’une machine reste indispensable. Côté B2C, il plaide pour une certification propre au commerce agentique, sur le modèle d’un label de la FEVAD. La souveraineté des données n’est pas loin non plus, recommander un cloud suisse pour échapper au droit américain a perdu son sens depuis que la Suisse a elle-même signé les textes autorisant le transfert de ces données vers les États-Unis, au point que certains hébergeurs suisses, comme Proton, ont menacé de délocaliser leur entreprise. Dans les faits, face aux dangers potentiels de la nouvelle loi, l’entreprise genevoise a préféré geler 100 millions de francs suisses d’investissement prévus à Genève et installer les serveurs de son IA Lumo en Allemagne et en Norvège, selon Blick. Sur le paiement, Olivier Laborne se montre plus rassurant, avec un système français et européen « ultra surveillé ». Celui-ci n’est cependant pas immune aux problèmes, comme l’a démontré l’énorme bourde de Revolut dévoilée le 14 septembre 2026. La néobanque britannique, qui vient de recevoir son agrément bancaire, a transmis des données de ses clients à des hackers qui s’étaient fait passer pour des représentants de l’Etat. Comme quoi, tout n’est pas si rose que cela non plus ici. Trois actions concrètes pour l’année qui vient À l’heure de conclure, Olivier Laborne resserre le propos autour de trois priorités, volontairement éloignées de toute promesse technologique. La première consiste à structurer ses données et à connecter son catalogue produit aux standards existants, à commencer par le format schema.org Product, condition minimale pour qu’une intelligence artificielle puisse seulement détecter l’existence d’une offre. Deuxièmement, la qualité du contenu, avec une attention particulière portée au multilinguisme, un point faible récurrent des sites français selon lui. Enfin, garder la main sur le paiement et sur la relation client, plutôt que de la déléguer entièrement à un tiers, la meilleure garantie contre la désintermédiation que les marques redoutent depuis l’arrivée des plateformes. « Tout ça sort totalement de l’IA », insiste Olivier Laborne, pour qui ces trois chantiers relèvent d’abord d’une hygiène de commerçant, bien avant d’être des sujets d’intelligence artificielle. Tempérer l’enthousiasme autour du commerce agentique Reste une donnée qui remet les choses en perspective. Le commerce de détail mondial devrait peser environ 50 000 milliards de dollars en 2030. Même dans l’hypothèse haute avancée par McKinsey, entre 3 000 et 5 000 milliards de dollars absorbés par le commerce agentique à cette date, on reste sur une fourchette de 1 à 10 % du total. De quoi tempérer aussi bien l’enthousiasme des évangélistes que l’inquiétude des sceptiques. Le commerce agentique n’est ni un raz-de-marée imminent ni un simple effet de mode, c’est un chantier de fond, qui repose moins sur la course aux protocoles que sur des fondamentaux vieux comme le commerce lui-même, la qualité des données, la qualité du contenu et la maîtrise de la relation client. Comme le résume Olivier Laborne, dans le mot e-commerce, il n’y a qu’une lettre pour l’électronique et huit pour le commerce, une manière de rappeler que la technologie, aussi spectaculaire soit-elle, ne remplace toujours pas les fondamentaux du métier. Pour poursuivre votre lecture, deux sujets complémentaires sur le site de Visionary Marketing : « Agents e-commerce, état des lieux pour 2026 » et, plus alarmiste, « IA hors de contrôle et déni collectif ». Le bandeau de la chaîne du numérique sans bullshit sur le site de Webikeo The post Mythes et réalité du commerce agentique appeared first on Marketing and Innovation.

Today we're exploring one of the most overlooked challenges in mergers and acquisitions - not systems integration, not organizational structures, and not even culture. But a turnover of your highest performers.One of the biggest risks in a merger is not losing poor performers - it's losing your best people. Research shows that highly skilled employees and managers are the most likely groups to leave after a merger because uncertainty about their future, status, and career opportunities makes external options more attractive.A significant merger has just taken place. Within the first weeks and months you're starting to see your best people leave. The truth is while leaders have been focused on strategy, synergies, and culture integration , many of your best employees are asking a very different question:"What does this mean for me?"And if that question remains unanswered for too long, organisations often experience disengagement, declining productivity, an erosion of trust - and turnover.So today we'll unpack the psychology behind this phenomenon and explore how leadership coaching can help leaders guide people through uncertainty and toward a meaningful future.Rebecca, on asking yourself different questions as leader: "Mergers can result in high turnover of your best talent which often stems from uncertainty. Rather than focusing on tasks and productivity, your people are consumed with thoughts that question their identity in your new culture. They worry about their growth and if there will be opportunities for them moving forward.”Links:Get a copy of Rebecca's 7 Strategic Shifts to Position You as a High-Impact LeaderSpeak to us about your leadership development objectivesRate, Review, & Follow our Show on Apple Podcasts:Also, if you haven't done so already, follow the podcast.

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles take on Donald Trump's increasingly bizarre relationship with Vladimir Putin as Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff head to Moscow, asking what Trump's Russia fixation is really about and why Putin seems so comfortable dealing directly with Trump's inner circle. They also dissect Trump's obsession with the Qatari plane, his plans to leave a permanent physical mark on the White House, and the latest battle over his triumphal arch. Then, Maria Bartiromo's sudden departure from Fox News opens a revealing discussion about her long relationship with Trump and the network's transformation under the Murdoch family, before Melania Trump's conspicuous absence from the GOP's midterm gathering raises fresh questions about the state of the Trump marriage. Finally, Wolff and Coles turn to the chaos at the Pentagon, where dozens of officials are being subjected to lie-detector tests as Pete Hegseth faces mounting questions about his leadership and the military's ability to function. #ad Free trial at https://shopify.com/dailybeast Learn more about your ad choices.

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets at Sharesies Note: Filmed Monday 31 August ↑ WHAT'S UP — US indices edged higher, with the S&P 500 up 0.5% and the Nasdaq up 0.9%, while the ASX 200 added 0.4%, propelled by results including Qantas’ 4.8% jump on a $2.06 billion underlying profit, Coles rising 5%, and NEXTDC beating guidance with revenue up 16% on surging AI infrastructure demand. ↓ WHAT'S DOWN — The NZX 50 fell 1.5% in its worst week since May, snapping three weeks of gains. DroneShield sank 11% despite a 74% revenue jump as it swung to a $32.2 million loss, Air New Zealand posted a $336 million full-year pre-tax loss, and Xero drew a 70.6% protest vote against its remuneration report. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — Australia's July CPI ran hotter than expected at 3.5%, with trimmed mean inflation at 3.6%, lifting the odds of an RBA hike by year-end to 78% from 67%. At Jackson Hole, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh’s tone was hawkish, pushing September US rate-rise odds from around 36% to nearly 60%. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — The RBNZ meets Wednesday, with markets expecting a 25 basis point hike from 2.5%, and Australia's Q2 GDP lands the same day. In the US, the August employment report on Friday will be a key read ahead of the Fed's next decision on September 16. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Inflation is proving stickier than hoped, with a hot Australian CPI and a hawkish Warsh pushing rate-hike expectations sharply higher on both sides of the Pacific. The AI build-out still looks robust — Nvidia flagged hyperscaler capex near US$800 billion this year — but its warning on shrinking margins is a reminder that even the AI winners face cost pressure.

Would you be happy having your face not just surveilled, but scanned every time you walked into the supermarket? It's no longer a hypothetical. Coles and Woolworths have both now admitted to trialling facial recognition technology, while Bunnings has won the right to scan customers' faces in limited circumstances - a shift privacy experts warn could creep from spotting known troublemakers to tracking every shopper who walks through the door. So what do we know about facial recognition technology and just how invasive can it really be? To make sense of it, we're rewinding a few years to one of the most alarming case studies involving facial recognition tech company – CLEARVIEW AI. In this bonus episode of The Briefing, we're revisiting an episode of Secrets We Keep: Uncovered by investigative journalist Joey Watson.

In this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, I sit down with Javier Lucas Coles—entrepreneur, father, author, and powerful leader—for a deep conversation about what masculinity actually means. We unpack why masculinity feels like it's under attack today, but probably not for the reasons you might think. Lucas breaks down the difference between healthy, grounded masculinity and the loud, aggressive, macho bullshit that often gets mistaken for it. True masculine leadership isn't about control or dominance. It's about being calm, collected, capable, and powerful. It's about taking responsibility, creating safety, and leading from the front—especially inside your own home. We dive into what it means for men to tap into their divine masculine, how fathers can show up more intentionally for their families, and why leadership starts with how you live when nobody is watching. While this conversation is geared heavily toward men, I think women will get just as much value from hearing Lucas explain these concepts. And this is only part one—we'll be coming back for a second conversation geared more toward the feminine perspective. If you're a man who wants to become a better leader, father, husband, entrepreneur, or simply a more grounded version of yourself, this conversation will challenge you to take a hard look at how you're showing up.   Key Nutrition Links: Work With a Nutrition Coach - Schedule A Consultation Nutrition Coaching - www.keynutrition.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Key Nutrition – @keynutritioncoaching

BIGGEST SURPRISES Bond yields were the big story. The 30-year US Treasury yield pushed above 5.3% for the first time since 2007 and the 10-year near 4.7% as national debt topped US$40 trillion for the first time. The Treasury's expanded buybacks to ease the pressure didn’t hold, with yields retracing most of their decline by week's end. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH New Fed Chair Kevin Warsh gives his first keynote on Thursday, while Nvidia's results land Wednesday and Australian reporting rolls on with Coles, Woolworths, Wesfarmers and Qantas. On the data front, RBA minutes are due Tuesday and Australian July CPI Wednesday, alongside key US inflation and GDP prints mid-week. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE Attention is turning to climbing long-dated US yields, with fiscal concerns and sticky inflation pressuring equities even as the Treasury tries to intervene. Down under, reporting season shows a divergence on the ASX: a cooling housing market weighing on banks, while the miners and biotech CSL rise. With rising unemployment but consumers gaining confidence on the RBA's hold, Australia sends mixed signals heading into a pivotal week.

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles go inside the increasingly bizarre inner workings of Donald Trump's presidency, beginning with Wolff's extraordinary account of Natalie Harp's deeply personal letters to Trump and the alarm they sparked among campaign staff and the Secret Service. They explore how Harp became one of the president's closest gatekeepers, what her influence says about the people surrounding him, and why Trump's White House remains driven by loyalty, proximity, and personal obsession. Then, as the war with Iran drags on without a clear endgame, Wolff and Coles turn to Pete Hegseth, his ever-present wife, and the mounting signs of dysfunction at the Pentagon before asking whether a presidency once defined by raw power is now slipping into something far more chaotic: outright farce. #ad If you're ever injured in an accident, you can check out Morgan & Morgan.

Quantum Scientist Patrick Coles Reveals How Tumors Protect Your Mitochondria From Toxic Overload Cancer might not be the enemy your doctor says it is. What if tumors are actually your body's emergency detox system, built on purpose to protect you from something far more dangerous? Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Patrick Coles, Ph.D., Chief Scientist at Normal Computing, where he develops novel computing hardware for AI applications. Previously a Staff Scientist at Los Alamos National Lab, Coles led their near-term quantum computing group and made significant contributions to quantum computing theory. He holds a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from UC Berkeley and a Master of Philosophy in Biochemistry from Cambridge, and he's currently developing a new theory for cancer and chronic disease, the subject of this conversation. His rare combination of hard physics and deep biochemistry gives him a radically different lens on one of medicine's most misunderstood diseases. Coles lays out his Toxin Sequestration Theory, a framework that reframes cancer tumors not as malignant accidents but as intentional storage vaults the body builds to sequester toxins, heavy metals, seed oils, mold, and excess glucose, away from healthy tissue and mitochondria. He and Dave connect the dots between this theory and chronic disease, biohacking fundamentals, and why chemotherapy itself behaves as a toxin that can backfire. They dig into oxalates, deuterium, linoleic acid, circadian biology, and the detox protocols that support the body's natural ability to shrink these toxic reservoirs. This conversation challenges the mainstream genetic theory of cancer, explores the metabolic theory popularized by Thomas Seyfried, and lands on a radical, functional medicine-aligned framework for anyone serious about longevity, anti-aging, and human performance. Dave and Coles also break down how sleep optimization, fasting, ketosis, and a carnivore approach to nutrition support the body's detox hierarchy, from fat tissue and the liver to moles, cysts, and eventually tumors themselves. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, functional medicine, mitochondria health, brain optimization, nootropics, and taking full control of their metabolism and longevity. You'll Learn: Why toxins may be the root cause of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, autism, and most chronic disease How Toxin Sequestration Theory reinterprets tumors as the body's backup detox organs Why chemotherapy ranks among the most tissue-damaging toxins, and what happens when a tumor bursts The role of oxalates, deuterium, heavy metals, and seed oils in cancer cell hoarding Why moles, cysts, lipomas, and nodules may be minor versions of the same detox response How circadian rhythm, sleep, and light exposure affect the body's toxin excretion cycles What spontaneous tumor regression reveals about lowering your toxic burden Why tracking tumor progression matters no matter which treatment path you choose Thank you to our sponsors! - Download Dave's Free Peptide Guide at daveasprey.com/peptide-guide. - ZenBud | Dave's Nervous System Biohack.

In this series, Going Deep, we're pulling back the curtain on the industries that shape everyday life in Australia. We've watched Woolworths and Coles pocket billions in profit during a cost-of-living crisis, seen a CEO walk out of a live TV interview rather than answer questions, and watched a Federal Court judge rule that hundreds of "discounts" at the checkout were never real in the first place. In this episode, we'll explore how two supermarkets came to control two-thirds of what Australians eat… and whether the laws we're writing now will actually be enough to stop it from happening again. _ Note: This recording took place in February 2026.

They also confront the bizarre obsession with Trump's health and ponder whether the 80-year-old president wears diapers, dissect the elaborate decoy-plane operation as another example of Trump's need to dominate the news cycle, and examine his determination to remake the White House into a monument to himself. Wolff and Coles also look at Jeanine Pirro's increasingly creative efforts to satisfy Trump through a special grand jury, the growing pressure around the midterms, and the increasingly valuable business of being close to Trump while his power is at its peak. #ad Use code BEAST at the link below to get an exclusive 60% off an annual Incogni plan: https://incogni.com/beast #ad If you're ever injured in an accident, you can check out Morgan & Morgan.

Anthony Scaramucci and Nell Scovell join Joanna Coles on a special edition episode of the Daily Beast Podcast. In the first installment of a four-part series on the women around Donald Trump, they ask the question that's hanging over Washington: where are Melania Trump and Ivanka Trump? Drawing on Scaramucci's firsthand experience inside Trump's orbit, the conversation explores why the first lady has become so absent from public life, what her disappearance could reveal about her marriage, whether Ivanka's decision to leave politics has changed the balance inside Trump's White House, and why the women closest to him may have once acted as the only people capable of tempering his instincts. Coles and Scovell unpack Melania's rare public interventions, Ivanka's dramatic transformation from political insider to private citizen, and the complicated family dynamics shaping Trump's second presidency.

Narelle Plapp started Food for Health twenty years ago making recipes for patients who couldn't find allergy-friendly food on any shelf. She loaded her first Woolworths order by hand - 14 pallets that showed up via fax and had to be paid on delivery, funded by $13,000 from her parents. One SKU eventually did over $2 million in a single retailer. Then she did something most brand founders never attempt: she borrowed $8 million, bought a paddock, and built her own factory. Nine years later, Grain and Bake is a $35 million business - targeting $45 million this year - manufacturing for some of Australia's biggest food brands, running 24 hours a day, five days a week. In this interview, Narelle breaks down what it actually costs to manufacture an allergy-friendly bar, the brutal reality of retailer margins most founders don't see until it's too late, and how she convinced the bank to back a factory before she had a single confirmed customer. What you'll learn in this interview: • How she got her first Woolworths ranging by making sure friends and family bought out every trial store • Why she borrowed $8M to build a factory on a paddock - and the soft commitments from brands that got the bank across the line • What it actually costs to manufacture an allergy-friendly bar - the hidden 10-hour cleans, swabs, and 8-person cleaning crews most founders never budget for • The $0.40 per bar reality - and how to work backwards from RRP to know if your margins will survive retail • Why retailer category margins have jumped from 35% to 55% minimum over 20 years - and what that means for your P&L before you pitch Coles or Woolies • The 13-week clock: how long you have to prove velocity on shelf before you get cut • How a $4M investment in automated cartoning increased her line output by 30% - and why she passed the savings to her brand clients • Why she trawled Europe to find the right oven - and what it takes to commission a factory when you've never built one before • The Grain and Bake client model: why manufacturing for other brands makes her a partner in their success, not just a supplier • What she'd tell every CPG founder before they pitch a retailer - the whiteboard session that changed one AFL footballer's entire business plan If you're building a CPG brand, trying to understand the real cost of manufacturing and retail at scale, or just want an unfiltered view of what Australian food manufacturing actually looks like from the inside, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about supply chain, margins, and what it takes to build something that lasts 20 years.
