We're mashing up quantum computing, AI infrastructure, and space stocks as we dig into a handful of headline-grabbing earnings reports. From GPU farms on the ground to satellites in orbit, we're asking what's investable now… and what still belongs in the “sci-fi someday” bucket. Emily Flippen, Jason Hall, and Keith Speights: - Break down CoreWeave's latest results, including booming backlog, heavy capex, and whether an AI infrastructure arms race can still reward shareholders. - Compare CoreWeave's reality to “up-and-coming” quantum names like Rigetti, IonQ, D-Wave, and QUBT – and make the case for (or against) taking the tech-giant route with Alphabet or Microsoft instead. - Explain why Rocket Lab's record revenue, rising margins, and growing backlog are bright spots in a bruised space sector – and how government shutdown drama factors into the story. - Dig into AST SpaceMobile's satellite-to-cell strategy, big-name carrier partners, ambitious launch plans, and why 2026 could be a make-or-break year for the stock.

This Listing Bits episode is now available on your favorite podcast player! Overview Greg Robertson sits down with industry veteran Amy Gorce of REdistribute to clarify what REdistribute actually does, how it differs from display-focused data platforms, and why MLSs should care about the exploding gray-market use of MLS data. Amy breaks down the institutional-buyer use cases, explains how gray-market pipelines emerged, and outlines why MLS participation directly impacts valuation accuracy, AVMs, risk modeling, and overall market health. Key Takeaways  • REdistribute is not a display vendor. Their data is used solely for institutional-grade analytics, AVMs, risk modeling, and portfolio management—never for consumer-facing listing display.    • Owned by MLSs, built for MLSs. The operating agreement limits eligible purchasers and prevents MLSs or brokers from using the data for competitive display products.    • The gray market is real and accelerating. Companies scrape, partner with brokers, or purchase unclear data sources to fuel AVMs and risk tools—often without MLS compensation. REdistribute is actively converting gray-market users.    • AI is making the problem bigger. Scraping tools, automated ingestion, and LLM training pipelines are proliferating. REdistribute is building an MCP server to support AI-specific use cases in a controlled and compliant way.    • Coverage, not demand, is the bottleneck. Institutional buyers are ready, but MLS participation is still below critical mass (~55–60% coverage). More MLSs joining closes the gap and increases revenue potential.    • Economics vary by use case. AVM licensing generates significantly higher value than simple match-and-append use cases—creating real opportunities for meaningful revenue distribution back to MLSs and brokers.    • Joining is simple. MLSs sign a license agreement and can be onboarded in roughly two weeks, with quarterly revenue distributions.   Links  • The Market Value of Listing Data—and the Cost of the Grey Market - White Paper Contact Amy Gorce Allison Duggins Sponsors Trackxi - Real Estate's #1 Deal Tracking Software Giant Steps Job Board – Where ORE gets hired Production and editing services by: Sunbound Studios  

California is once again leading the nation on privacy. Governor Gavin Newsom just signed three new laws that will reshape how businesses manage user data, account deletion, and browser-based opt-outs. Together, these laws—the Opt Me Out Act, expanded data broker disclosure requirements, and new social media deletion rules—signal where CCPA enforcement is headed next. Companies should start preparing now, as compliance deadlines are just around the corner. Hosted by Simone Roach. Based on a blog post by Aaron J. Burstein and Meaghan M. Donahue.

Eric Pilkington joins the show to cut through the noise around artificial intelligence and deliver some hard truths about what's actually working—and what's just expensive theater.AI isn't new; it's been around for 70+ years. The current generative AI boom is democratization, not innovation—and 95% of AI projects are still failing.Startups with no product, no customers, and no revenue raising $30-100 million. Companies are getting massive funding without a single dollar of revenue.The real AI leaders aren't the loudest voices on conference stages. They're the ones quietly embedding AI into workflows, building better products, and closing the gap between pilots and actual impact. Most companies chase cost savings instead of using AI to drive top-line growth. You can't cut your way to growth. Real business transformation comes from understanding the actual problems you're solving, not from chasing the newest shiny object. The superheroes of AI aren't prognosticating on stages—they're in garages and labs building things that'll matter five years from now.Mentioned:MIT Study on failure of AI pilots in business

In today's episode, we're delighted to be joined by Elaine Dorward-King, an accomplished mining executive and board director with over three decades of international experience in the resources sector. Elaine currently serves as a non-executive director for Sibanye-Stillwater, Kenmare Resources, and NovaGold, and has previously held senior leadership roles at Newmont and Rio Tinto. In our conversation, we'll explore Elaine's journey from operational leadership to board service, unpack what Boards of Directors actually do, and discuss what makes for effective corporate governance. We'll also touch on the evolving landscape of ESG and diversity in boardrooms, and the continued relevance of social license to operate, a topic Elaine will be moderating a panel on at the upcoming Resourcing Tomorrow Conference in London this December - the premier gathering for the world's mining leaders taking place at the Business Design Centre from 2-4 December. What sets this event apart is its unmatched audience: C-level executives from the biggest mining companies worldwide, over 40 government ministers, leading mining technology providers, and more. Dig Deep The Mining Podcast is proud to partner with Resourcing Tomorrow so to register, go to https://hubs.ly/Q03JvH2K0 and use DIGDEEP10 for 10% off your pass. KEY TAKEAWAYS When recruiting new directors, boards assess the skills and expertise needed, aiming for a diverse range of backgrounds and independent perspectives.  This process often involves using search firms to identify a broad spectrum of candidates. Companies benefit from having a workforce that reflects a wide range of perspectives, which can lead to better performance and results. Directors must be willing to speak up and hold management accountable to minimise risks and protect shareholder interests. BEST MOMENTS "The primary role of boards is to think long-term and to help the management team think that way." "A diverse and inclusive workplace is one where people are more productive and want to contribute their very best."  "If everyone is a golfing buddy of the CEO, they may be less willing to challenge."  "You need to know why you want to be on a board. Not everybody is suited for it or wants to do it."

Take a deep breath and refocus on total well-being — body, mind, and spirit. As summer winds down and back-to-school stress ramps up, many of us feel a little “off.” Our energy dips, moods shift, and stress levels climb. But what if the key to feeling better isn't just about food, sleep, or supplements — but about your energy field?Integrative pharmacist Dr. Swathi Varanasi-Diaz calls it Quantum Ayurveda — the meeting point of ancient Ayurvedic wisdom and modern energy science. She explains that every person has a measurable aura, an electromagnetic field created by your body's biological processes. “It's not mystical,” she says. “Your aura is your body's unique energy signature — like a fingerprint that reflects your physical, mental, and emotional state.”When your energy field is strong and balanced, your body adapts more easily to stress and heals more efficiently. But when that energy is scattered or low, it can be an early signal of burnout or imbalance — long before symptoms appear.The future of wellness, according to Dr. Varanasi-Diaz, lies in energy-tuned nutrition. Companies like Greenspace Herbs are pioneering research into “Quantum Ayurveda,” using technology to align herbal formulas with human energy patterns. These energy-tuned supplements may help the body recognize and absorb nutrients faster — potentially leading to better results with smaller doses.Until that technology becomes mainstream, you can start “retuning” your energy every day. Move your body, breathe deeply, spend time in nature, and take quiet moments to recharge. These simple habits act like daily tune-ups — helping your body, mind, and energy stay in sync.After all, wellness isn't just about what you take in — it's about how you vibrate through life. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/late-night-health-radio--2804369/support.

Understanding Corporate Liability: Navigating the Complexities of Modern AccountabilityIn today's rapidly evolving business landscape, understanding corporate liability is more crucial than ever. As companies grow in size and complexity, the challenge of holding them accountable for their actions becomes increasingly intricate. This blog post explores the key concepts of corporate liability, insider trading, and the evolving frameworks of accountability.The Puzzle of Corporate AccountabilityImagine a world where a giant corporation commits a crime, such as fraud or bribery. Who pays the price? Is it the CEO, the board, or the company itself? This question lies at the heart of corporate liability, a concept that has evolved significantly over the years. The traditional legal frameworks, such as the identification doctrine, often fall short in addressing the complexities of modern corporations.The Identification Doctrine: A Narrow ApproachThe identification doctrine, a cornerstone of UK corporate law, requires prosecutors to prove that the company's "directing mind and will" was responsible for the crime. This approach, while theoretically sound, often fails in practice, especially in large corporations with complex hierarchies. The case of Barclays in 2018 highlights this gap, where charges against the company were dismissed due to the inability to pinpoint the directing mind.Respondeat Superior: The Broad US ApproachIn contrast, the US model of respondeat superior holds companies liable for the actions of their employees, provided they acted within the scope of their employment. This broad approach ensures accountability but raises questions about fairness, especially when companies have robust compliance programs in place.The Middle Ground: Failure to Prevent ModelEmerging as a middle ground is the "failure to prevent" model, which shifts the burden of proof onto companies. Under this model, companies are guilty unless they can demonstrate reasonable procedures to prevent the crime. This approach is gaining traction, particularly in addressing economic crimes and ensuring companies take proactive measures to prevent wrongdoing.The Role of ESG and AI in Modern AccountabilityAs we move into an era dominated by environmental, social, and governance (ESG) concerns, the landscape of corporate accountability is shifting. Companies are now expected to consider their broader impact on society and the environment. Additionally, the rise of artificial intelligence introduces new challenges in attributing liability, as algorithms make increasingly complex decisions.Redefining Corporate ResponsibilityThe old rules of corporate liability are being rewritten to address the realities of modern business. As we navigate this new landscape, the challenge lies in redefining what it means for a corporation to be responsible. The future of corporate accountability will depend on our ability to adapt legal frameworks to the complexities of global systems and AI-driven decision-making.Subscribe NowStay informed about the latest developments in corporate law and accountability. TakeawaysUnderstanding corporate liability is essential for legal exams.Corporations act through individuals, complicating accountability.The U.S. model allows broad corporate liability through respondent superior.The U.K. model requires proof of a directing mind for liability.Comparative models like Canada's and Australia's offer broader accountability.Failure to prevent offenses shift the burden to corporations.Individual accountability is crucial in corporate crime cases.Sentencing often ignores the financial impact on shareholders.ESG factors are increasingly influencing corporate liability.The legal landscape is evolving with technology and AI implications.corporate liability, attribution, respondent superior, identification doctrine, compliance, ESG, corporate governance, individual accountability, sentencing, legal frameworks

Petit point rapide sur la plainte contre Airbnb concernant leurs locations en Cisjordanie. A quick update on the complaint against Airbnb concerning their rentals in the West Bank.Alors, de quoi il s'agit? So, what is it about?D'une action en justice lancée à Paris contre ces géants de la réservation en ligne. It's a lawsuit launched in Paris against these online booking giants.Le truc, c'est qu'ils proposent des logements dans des colonies israéliennes, en Cisjordanie, donc. The thing is, they offer accommodation in Israeli settlements, in the West Bank, therefore.Et ça, bah c'est considéré comme illégal par le droit international. And that, well, is considered illegal under international law.La Ligue des droits de l'homme et d'autres associations disent : ces plateformes listent des biens dans les territoires palestiniens occupés sans dire clairement ce qu'il en est. The Human Rights League and other associations say: these platforms list properties in the occupied Palestinian territories without clearly stating what they are.Du coup, ça pourrait non seulement tromper les voyageurs, mais aussi banaliser la situation illégale de ces colonies. As a result, it could not only mislead travelers but also normalize the illegal status of these settlements.Les plaignants espèrent créer un précédent juridique ici en France. The plaintiffs hope to set a legal precedent here in France.Une sorte de rappel, quoi. A kind of reminder, you know.Les entreprises, même les plateformes, doivent respecter le droit international humanitaire. Companies, even platforms, must respect international humanitarian law.Et ça relance tout le débat éthique. And that relaunches the whole ethical debate.Est-ce qu'une plateforme peut vraiment rester neutre si elle tire profit économiquement de zones d'occupation ou de conflit ? Can a platform truly remain neutral if it profits economically from areas of occupation or conflict? Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Hiring a contractor isn't as easy as scrolling through your dating app and swiping right—trust me, I learned that the hard way! In this wild ride of an episode, we're joined by Joseph Brinkman, an attorney who shines a light on the chaotic world of contractor hiring and real estate law. We dig into everything from dodging liability like it's a bad ex to deciphering contracts that are about as clear as mud. Spoiler alert: if you think you can just grab the cheapest guy off Craigslist and everything will magically go smoothly, then buckle up, because we're about to expose the absurdity of that idea. So, grab your coffee, settle in, and let's navigate this construction minefield together!Ever thought hiring a contractor was as easy as picking a pizza topping? Well, buckle up, because Eric G, John Dudley, and attorney Joseph Brinkman are about to take you on a wild ride through the chaotic world of contractor hiring and real estate law. They dive into the nitty-gritty of why you shouldn't just swipe right on the first contractor you see on Craigslist. Spoiler alert: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. From understanding liability (you might be responsible if they fall off a ladder) to deciphering contracts that are murkier than that lake you swim in, this episode is here to shed light on the often absurd realities of home improvement projects. They discuss how to vet contractors properly, the importance of communicating expectations, and why a solid contract is your best friend when things take a turn for the worse.Joseph Brinkman shares his wisdom on navigating the legal labyrinth of hiring contractors, emphasizing the importance of doing your homework. The guys share stories that will make your jaw drop—like the time a homeowner had to call the cops because of a contractor dispute that escalated to fisticuffs! They stress the importance of having clear communication and a vibe check before you sign any dotted line, because, believe me, no one wants to end up in a legal battle over a bathroom remodel. This episode is packed with practical advice, sharp humor, and a lot of laughs as they navigate the often ridiculous world of home renovations. So grab your coffee, sit back, and prepare to learn about the dos and don'ts of hiring contractors—because let's be real, you're gonna need it!Takeaways: Hiring a contractor isn't as easy as swiping right on a dating app; it's a full-on relationship with all the complications. If you think hiring a contractor who offers the lowest bid is a good idea, just remember: you get what you pay for, and sometimes that means chaos. Navigating contracts in real estate can feel like deciphering your ex's mixed signals; if you're not careful, you might end up in a mess. Always do your due diligence before hiring; checking references and past work can save you from a nightmare scenario later on.

Remember being a kid and thinking a power outage was an adventure? Candles, family stories, a break from the routine. That feeling shatters when the outage lasts for weeks and your roof is gone.Hurricane Melissa wasn't just another storm—it was a Category 5 monster, the strongest Jamaica has ever seen. In this raw and urgent episode, Dr. Thaon Simms and Dr. Matthew Preston are back after surviving the storm to break down what comes next. They move beyond theory to the hard reality: which companies on the Jamaica Stock Exchange are poised to help rebuild, and which are facing a long, painful recovery.You'll hear why hardware stocks like Atlantic Hardware and Lumber Depot are surging, while tourism and agriculture face collapse. We dive into the nightmare scenarios for insurance companies, the critical payouts from the World Bank catastrophe bond, and the sobering exposure of loan companies like Dolla Financial. From the urgent need for cement (Carib Cement) to the damaged wind farms (Wigton Energy), no sector is left unexamined.Whether you're investing $50,000 or $5 million, understanding how a disaster of this magnitude reshapes the economy is no longer just an edge—it's essential for survival.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Sebastien Denef, CEO and co-founder at AGENTS.inc, a company at the forefront of building intelligent agent platforms for enterprises. On this episode we explore how agentic AI architectures are reshaping industries, what it takes to scale agentic AI solutions across siloes, and why the winners in this space will be those who master both the technology and collaboration. KEY TAKEAWAYS You can give a task to an AI agent – a piece of software – that autonomously handles the task. When compared to previous layers of automation, we can now increase the autonomy level because of the AI models and the increased amounts of data we have.  It's underhyped. The impact we can have with today's technology is very, very big and it will impact all sectors, from education to finding a job, buying a house, buying your groceries, deciding where to go on your weekend where right now we're only seeing the beginnings of what could happen.  Almost the entire industry is trying to improve ChatGPT, to make it a little bit better, we actually see that this chat function isn't really needed. What is needed is having a tireless workforce that tirelessly works for you as AI agents – you don't necessarily want to converse with all of them because there would be too many messages to handle. You need a control interface to steer these new employees. RPA allowed us to move a document from A to B. AI agents will allow us to understand what's inside that document, extract the right stuff, put the right thing into the system, evaluate the information, and so on. All these things were impossible before, that's the big difference and that is possible today. BEST MOMENTS  ‘Think of AI agents as computers that work while you are asleep.'  ‘We will see shifts in entire industries, especially those with large workforces which will no longer be needed, and we will see new stuff coming up because of that.' ‘Companies are only just waking up from the dream that if you use ChatGPT or Microsoft CoPilot you're “AI-ready”.' ‘More than 70% of the work people do right now can be automated.' ABOUT THE GUESTS Sebastien Denef is CEO and co-founder at AGENTS.inc who is inventing the future of human-computer interaction. LinkedIn ABOUT THE HOST Sabine is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur. She is the CEO and Managing Partner of Alchemy Crew a venture lab that accelerates the curation, validation, & commercialization of new tech business models.

Strategic pricing is a growth lever, not a calculation. Companies that align price with customer value typically see 15-25% revenue growth in year one. Key Pricing Psychology: The 3-Tier Model: Used by 70% of B2B SaaS companies, this model leverages psychology. The premium tier makes the middle tier (where most profit is captured) look like the "reasonable" choice. Persona-Based Pricing: Design pricing around the customer's jobs-to-be-done rather than linearly scaling features. Dan Balcauski - https://www.producttranquility.com/

The paramount concern articulated in this discourse pertains to the significance of networking within the realm of music education and professional advancement. I, alongside my esteemed colleagues, delve into the merits of attending institutions such as Berklee, elucidating how these establishments serve not merely as educational platforms but as fertile grounds for forging invaluable connections with industry professionals. Our conversation further navigates the dichotomy between formal education and self-directed practice, challenging the notion that success in music is solely predicated on traditional academic pathways. We acknowledge the myriad of successful artists who have transcended conventional educational routes, yet we underscore the multifaceted advantages that arise from collaborative engagements and shared experiences fostered in academic settings. Ultimately, the episode serves as a contemplative exploration of the intricate balance between individual artistry and the collaborative spirit essential for thriving in the contemporary music landscape.The conversation delves into the significance of obtaining a formal music education, particularly at prestigious institutions such as Berklee. I articulate the duality of this experience, emphasizing that while a traditional education provides invaluable networking opportunities, it is also possible to achieve success through self-directed study and practice. The guests elucidate their personal journeys, highlighting the evolution of music education in the digital age, where resources abound online, contrasting with the more financially prohibitive methods of the past. They underscore the importance of cultivating relationships within the industry, which can yield substantial benefits in one's career trajectory. Networking emerges as a pivotal theme, as they recount how connections made during their time at school continue to influence their professional lives, facilitating collaborations and opportunities that may not have been accessible otherwise.Takeaways: The significance of attending a prestigious institution like Berklee lies in the invaluable networking opportunities provided, which can greatly enhance one's career in music. While self-teaching can be effective for some musicians, formal education can offer structured learning and connections that may be beneficial in the long run. The collaborative nature of music production necessitates effective communication and team dynamics, as it allows for a more natural and cohesive creative process. Working with esteemed artists such as Michael Jackson and James Brown imparts essential lessons about simplicity and accessibility in music, which can resonate with wider audiences.

Fine is a 4-Letter Word is all about those moments when “fine” is just the mask we wear before life gives us a loud wake-up call.For Massimo Backus, that wake-up call came wrapped in a leadership 360 evaluation that painted a picture he didn't recognize. The team he thought he was inspiring and supporting saw someone defensive, unsafe to approach, even a bully. Gut punch, right?Raised by creative, supportive parents who met in a woodworking class over a three-legged chair, Massimo learned the values of creativity, acceptance, and generosity that would later guide his unconventional career path. He also carried the invisible weight of childhood dyslexia and a lifelong habit of needing to prove himself. That pattern followed him into adulthood and eventually showed up in how he led others. His relentless pursuit of purpose-driven work eventually led him to a prestigious position as global head of leadership development for a large international consulting firm, where he thought he had finally “made it.” However, that 360-degree feedback assessment came as an unexpected wake-up call.Massimo first tried to “fix” himself on his own. It wasn't until he surrendered control and attended the Hoffman Process, a weeklong retreat, that he uncovered the real saboteur: his own inner critic.Through self-compassion, Massimo finally found the power to stop performing and start being. Listen as we unpack his journey from overactive inner critic to radical freedom.Massimo's hype song is Dance Yrself Clean by LCD Sound SystemResources:InKind Leaders Website: https://www.inkindleaders.com/Massimo's Personal Website: https://massimobackus.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/massimo-backus/Claim your copy of: “Human First, Leader Second” bookInvitation from Lori: This episode is sponsored by Zen Rabbit. Smart business leaders know trust is the foundation of every great workplace. And in today's hybrid and fast-moving work culture, trust isn't built in quarterly town halls or the occasional Slack message. It's built through consistent, clear, and HUMAN communication. Companies and leaders TALK about the importance of connection and community. And it's easy to believe your organization is doing a great job of maintaining an awesome corporate culture. Because you've got annual all-hands meeting and open door policies, and “fun" team-building events.But let's be real. Leaders who are serious about building real trust are finding better ways to strengthen culture, create connection, and foster community.That's where I come in. Forward thinking companies are hiring me to produce internal podcasts. To bring leadership and employees together through authentic stories, real conversations, and meaningful connections. Think of it as your old-school printed company newsletter - reinvented for the modern workforce. I KNOW, what a cool idea, right?! If you run, work for, or know of a company that wants to upgrade communication, facilitate connections, build community, and maintain culture, let's chat. Message me at Lori@ZenRabbit dot com. Because when people feel heard, they engage. When they engage, they perform. And when they perform, the business succeeds beyond projections.

When it comes to stable tenants and predictable cash flow, it's hard to find a better asset class then Medical Office. As the population ages and people live longer, the demand for medical care will continue to flourish. Plus, technology will never replace the human body. Another commercial real estate class with predictable cash flow is Multifamily. Multifamily is attractive because of looming loan maturities and resulting distress.  Ben Reinberg, CEO of Alliance Consolidated Group of Companies, has specialized in Medical Office for the last twenty years and is now capitalizing on Multifamily to leverage current buying opportunities to acquire great properties for less than replacement costs.

Company culture is more than a buzzword—it is the foundation that determines whether a business simply survives or truly thrives. In a marketplace defined by constant change, culture has emerged as the key driver of growth, employee retention, and the freedom leaders seek when scaling their companies. Few leaders embody this truth more than Josh Cunningham, Founder and CEO of Rokrbox and Five Star Company Culture. Over the past decade, Josh has built a reputation for transforming organizations by building teams that perform at the highest level. His journey began in real estate, where Rokrbox worked more than three million internet leads for teams across the United States. Along the way, he hired and trained over 400 inside sales assistants, proving that with the right culture in place, talent can be developed, empowered, and retained. That success became the foundation for Five Star Company Culture, where Josh now helps businesses implement systems that put culture at the center of growth. His philosophy is clear: when company culture is strong, employees stay longer, productivity rises, and leaders regain the freedom to focus on strategy instead of daily firefighting. The importance of company culture is even more evident in today's business climate. High turnover, disengaged teams, and rising competition can all erode profitability. Leaders often search for solutions in marketing or operations, but the most sustainable results come from within. A thriving culture attracts top performers, motivates them to achieve more, and creates an environment where people want to contribute their best work. Josh's story highlights how intentional culture-building unlocks scalability. By focusing on values, accountability, and shared purpose, he has shown how even fast-growing businesses can avoid the pitfalls of burnout and constant churn. His companies demonstrate that investing in culture is not a luxury—it is a business strategy that pays dividends in loyalty, innovation, and profitability. For business leaders, the lesson is simple: culture should not be an afterthought. It is the competitive edge. Leaders who understand the connection between culture and performance can move beyond short-term fixes and build organizations that last. They can also create the personal freedom many entrepreneurs dream about but rarely achieve, because the right culture allows them to step back without losing momentum. The phrase "company culture" often conjures images of office perks or team-building events, but Josh's approach goes deeper. It is about aligning people with purpose, setting clear expectations, and rewarding results. It is about creating a workplace where the right people feel inspired to stay and grow, and where leaders can trust their teams to deliver consistently. The conversation about culture is not just theoretical. Businesses across industries are proving that when culture is strong, growth follows. From scaling sales teams to expanding into new markets, the foundation that supports long-term success is always cultural. Companies that neglect this reality risk constant turnover, disengagement, and the inability to grow beyond the owner's direct involvement. Company culture is the key to unlocking both business growth and personal freedom. By looking at Josh Cunningham's journey, it becomes clear that culture is not a side project. It is the system that drives results. Leaders who embrace this mindset will not only scale their businesses more effectively but will also create organizations where people thrive—and where the freedom to focus on the future becomes a reality.

PREVIEW. Tariff Impact Absorbed by Corporate Pandemic Profits. Elizabeth Peek recounts the Wall Street Journal's speculation that new tariffs have not yet damaged the American economy because big companies are absorbing the costs. This absorption is possible because these companies already "fattened their margins" by jacking up prices during the pandemic. Companies are also rapidly sourcing imports from places less impacted by tariffs.
