Managing IT costs has always been challenging and the FinOps movement is working to tackle this problem. Analysts Jean Atelsek and Melanie Posey return to the podcast to discuss their research and what they saw at the FinOps X conference with host Eric Hanselman. Cost angst has been exacerbated by the move to cloud. The shift from capital expense to operational expense has been a complicated transition for many. The infrastructure spending growth that being driven by AI initiatives has only just begun, but is already concerning. As cloud costs have become material expenses, more focus has been put on managing them. There are a host of startups that are looking to provide tools and cloud providers all have some form of cost management tooling. The shift to virtualization opened the door to optimization, but was one that only few walked through. Efforts at charge-back and show-back accounting created better visibility, but FinOps is looking to take things a step further by identifying costs early in the development cycle. Putting the vast quantities of operational data that cloud throws off to work requires a new focus. It's another area where AI can help businesses work their way out of the looming costs that AI applications create. It requires bringing together lines of business, development teams and IT operations, but the benefits could be significant.

In this episode, Dave explores the differences between manufacturing in China, India and the USA after ordering some products from all three countries. We talk about the good, the bad and the ugly between all three areas and the factors that you should consider if you do choose to move your manufacturing to India or to America. Specifically, we'll dive into the lead times, the cost differences between each country (including tariffs), the quality differences and the other pros and cons we found.  Struggling with tariffs? Unsure about upcoming changes? Let's talk! With Portless, you only pay tariffs after your customers pay you – so your cash always moves faster than your costs. Schedule a risk assessment and leverage tariff deferment today. All new customers get $1,000 to reinvest in their business. Now that the tariffs have been somewhat finalized, we can now do a clear and accurate breakdown of the pros and cons of manufacturing in China, India and the US.  So for the sake of our audience, Dave ordered products from each country to breakdown the differences in quality, costs, and lead times that you should know about.  If you've been considering moving your manufacturing base, then this episode is definitely for you.  In a rush? Here's the high-level takeaways:  Manufacturing in China currently comes with the caveat of 50%~ tariffs. Lead times in India are basically unpredictable because everything is handmade.  Prices in India are generally higher than in China, despite lower tariffs but the quality of products from India is high, especially in textiles and handicrafts. American manufacturing offers lower lead times but comes at 2x the cost of Chinese prices. Finding manufacturers in America can be challenging because of high MOQs and lack of responsiveness. Most manufacturers in America are already selling D2C.  A lot of American manufacturers have a lot of requirements to create your product.  American manufacturers typically also do not do any additional kitting for free.  Online marketplaces for manufacturing are emerging as valuable resources in the US.  E-commerce entrepreneurs may need to consider in-house manufacturing as a long-term strategy. The future of manufacturing may involve a mix of domestic and overseas production. Understanding the specific product requirements is crucial when choosing a manufacturing location.

Poock, Esq. addresses the following: Why the Rewards Outweigh the Risks for Growth by Acquisition   As Poock states at the outset, “[W]hen it comes to growth by acquisition for Growing Law Firms, the rewards absolutely outweigh the risks.”   Poock explains the following Rewards associated with growth by acquisition:   (1) Instant client growth by succeeding to a well-established Book of Business filled with clients and referral sources   (2) Adding knowledgeable and experienced lawyers and para-staff   (3) Low-risk earnout payment terms (% of revenues paid during a fixed period of time)   (4) Opportunities to convert decades of Subject Matter Knowledge to content for Multi-Channel Digital Marketing   (5) Succeed to a legacy phone number(s)   (6) Benefit from established websites and additional digital value (egs.

In this episode of Quick Fire Friday, host Michael Denehey interviews David Dilger, co-founder of Edge Legal, to explore the critical topic of psychosocial safety for small business owners. Drawing on over 30 years of legal and leadership experience, Dilger highlights the significant impact of unmanaged mental health risks in the workplace—emphasizing that mental health injuries cost three times more and take four times longer to resolve than physical injuries. He identifies key psychosocial hazards such as interpersonal conflict, inappropriate behavior, resistance to change, and mismatched expectations. Dilger underscores the importance of self-aware leadership, cultivating a respectful workplace culture, and conducting regular one-on-one meetings with team members. He also stresses the need for up-to-date policies, comprehensive training, and proactive risk assessments to effectively manage psychosocial risks and ensure legal compliance. Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners: Mental Health Risks Are Costly: Mental health injuries cost businesses three times more and take four times longer to resolve than physical injuries—making prevention and early action essential. Know Yourself as a Leader: The way leaders behave significantly influences workplace culture. Self-awareness and empathy are crucial for building trust and psychological safety. Interpersonal Issues Are the Core Hazards: Most psychosocial risks stem from interpersonal conflict, inappropriate behaviors, resistance to change, and unmet expectations—addressing these proactively reduces harm. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? One-on-One Meetings Are Powerful Tools: Regular 10–15 minute one-on-one meetings between managers and team members help detect issues early, improve communication, and strengthen relationships. Update Policies and Train Your People: Outdated policies won't protect your business. Regularly revise them to reflect current expectations, and ensure all staff are trained and understand them. Risk Management Is Not Optional: Conducting proper risk assessments, applying reasonable controls, and reviewing them over time is essential for compliance and maintaining a healthy work environment. One action small business owners can take: According to David Dilger, one action a small business owner should take is to implement regular one-on-one meetings with employees, as this fosters open communication, builds trust, and helps identify and address psychosocial risks early.

Here's my 2012 conversation with Don Ingber, founding director of Harvard's Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering, who has emerged as one of the leading voices defending science and attacking White House cuts to research. Following this conversation you're about to hear, I was hired by the Wyss Institute to host and co-produce Disruptive, a 17 episode podcast series, honored by the Webbies as one of the five top science podcasts of 2017. Search Disruptive, Terrence McNally to find the series at numerous sites.

Should we really restore primary molars without local anaesthetic or injections? When should we start taking radiographs for child patients? Is it time to say goodbye to traditional anterior strip crowns and embrace preformed zirconia crowns? And seriously - how do you get a wiggly, fidgety child to sit still long enough for a solid restoration?! The secret lies in choosing a technique that's both quick and effective! In this episode, Dr. Tim Keys unpacks the real challenges of restoring primary teeth, breaking down the pros and cons of popular approaches like the Hall Crown technique, Pediatric Zirconia crowns, and conventional stainless steel crowns (SSCs). Tune in for practical insights to make pediatric crown work less stressful and more successful - helping you find the best fit for your little patients. https://youtu.be/VJm4TFKLXEA Dr. Keys is also involved in dental education and offers courses through his platform, Kids Dental Tips.

Check out the Full Episode Transcript below! Key Takeaways: The Hall crown technique is a non-invasive approach to treating pediatric teeth. Radiographs are essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning in children. Case selection is crucial for the success of pediatric dental treatments. Zirconia crowns have superior aesthetics over stainless steel crowns. The success rate of intra-coronal fillings in primary molars is lower compared to crowns. Zirconia crowns rarely fracture compared to strip crowns. Mild supra-occlusion is acceptable in pediatric dentistry. Hands-on experience is crucial for mastering crown techniques.

Teachhoops.com⁠ In today's highly competitive world, whether it's in sports, business, politics, or even personal relationships, there's an increasingly pervasive belief that the only thing that matters is victory. This isn't just about striving for excellence; it's about the "win at all costs" mentality – a philosophy that often justifies any means to achieve the desired outcome, regardless of the ethical, moral, or human toll. But what exactly does this mindset entail, and what are its true ramifications? This episode delves deep into the origins and manifestations of the win at all costs mentality. We'll explore how it's fostered in various environments, from youth sports where championship trophies become the sole measure of success, to cutthroat corporate cultures where quarterly profits overshadow employee well-being and ethical conduct. We'll examine the psychological underpinnings that drive individuals and groups to adopt this extreme approach, looking at factors like ego, insecurity, fear of failure, and the societal pressures that often equate winning with worth. Crucially, we'll unpack the profound and often devastating consequences of this relentless pursuit of victory. Beyond the immediate triumph, what are the long-term impacts on integrity, trust, mental health, and the very fabric of relationships and communities? We'll discuss how a win at all costs approach can lead to burnout, unethical behavior, a corrosive work environment, and ultimately, a hollow victory that leaves a trail of damage. Join us as we challenge the conventional wisdom that winning is everything and instead, explore the hidden price tag of a mentality that prioritizes outcome above all else. ⁠CoachingYouthHoops.com⁠ ⁠https://forms.gle/kQ8zyxgfqwUA3ChU7⁠ ⁠Coach Collins Coaching Store⁠ Check out.  [Teachhoops.com](⁠https://teachhoops.com/⁠) 14 day Free Trial Youth Basketball Coaches Podcast Apple link: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coaching-youth-hoops/id1619185302⁠ Spotify link: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/0g8yYhAfztndxT1FZ4OI3A⁠ ⁠Funnel Down Defense Podcast⁠ ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/funnel-down-defense/id1593734011⁠ Want More ⁠Funnel Down Defense⁠ ⁠https://coachcollins.podia.com/funnel-down-defense⁠ [Facebook Group .
