Today, amid cost inflation, geopolitical conflict, and an ever-changing global business landscape we are staring down a massive shift in corporate sustainability and it's starting to prompt some pretty big questions.  Does navigating the triple threat of media, politics, and boardroom backlash mean we need to change the playbook? In this episode Lou is joined by Mark Lancelot from Better Business Design. Together, they unpack how the traditional role of the Chief Sustainability Officer is changing to survive, and how we might reshape the narrative around sustainability and circular economy goals to land positively in our global boardrooms.

Three years ago, one of the world's largest banks, Switzerland-based UBS, completed the acquisition of another major global bank, Credit Suisse.   In today's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking to UBS Chief Sustainability Officer and Group Historian Christian Leitz. He tells us how the combined bank is embedding sustainability into its operations, culture and strategy. Christian also explains how he brings his background as a historian to the CSO role — ensuring that clients, shareholders and employees understand the long-term context for current geopolitical volatility. "I don't want to distract from the fact that there is this noise, but I also want to do a bit of a reality check," Christian says. "There are enormously positive movements that we've seen" when it comes to the transition to a low-carbon economy.  Christian also shares his takeaways from the inaugural Climate Week Zurich in May 2026, and what to expect at London Climate Action Week, which kicks off June 20 and includes a focus on climate adaptation alongside continued mitigation.  "We need to do both, and we need to do both well," Christian says.  This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we talk to Chief Sustainability Officers around the world and across industries.

Pre-Order The Chief Storytelling Officer HERE: https://amzn.to/4eihvql"Commercials interrupt people. Shows invite them into the story world. That is the difference between traditional marketing and storytelling." — Rain BennettYour marketing campaign strategy is perfectly executed... and it still flops. The visuals are crisp, the copy is tight, and nobody cares. In this solo episode, Rain breaks down the real reason most marketing fails: it isn't a production problem, it's a storytelling problem. When your marketing isn't rooted in a clear brand purpose, it becomes what Rain calls "story yelling," which is loud, scattered, and ultimately forgettable. This is the fifth installment of the Narrative Operating System series, and it's where brand building and marketing strategy finally collide.Rain walks through how the Chief Storytelling Officer fits into your marketing function. Not to replace your CMO, but to ensure every campaign, every message, and every piece of content traces back to the brand narrative your company intentionally chose. The CSO's job isn't to ask "does this say what we want to say?" It's to ask "does this make people feel what we want them to feel?" That distinction is the entire difference between brand storytelling and traditional advertising.Using Yeti, Cali BBQ, and the Neuroendocrine Cancer Foundation as case studies, Rain shows how the most effective marketing strategies aren't campaigns at all—they're story worlds. He introduces the Content Cascade model as a practical framework for building tent pole projects, supporting stories, and audience amplifiers from a single unified brand messaging strategy. And before you go, he breaks down which metrics actually reflect meaningful connection (watch time, saves, comments, shares) and which vanity metrics to stop reporting on entirely. If your brand purpose is clear but your marketing still feels scattered, this episode is your blueprint. In this episode, you will learn to:Understand the difference between story yelling and storytelling—and which one your brand is currently doingUse the Content Cascade model to build tent pole projects, supporting stories, and audience amplifiers from a single narrativeReplace vanity metrics with story metrics that actually measure connection and community growthAvoid the traps of trend chasing, channel hopping, and virality chasing that derail most marketing strategiesAudit your last 10 pieces of marketing to see if they stem from one unified brand narrative or exist as isolated piecesLINKS AND RESOURCESEpisodes Referenced:EP 225 → Brand: How It Feels to Be Part of Your Story WorldEP 230 → Product: Where Your Story Gets ProvenGuest Referenced → Sean Walcheff, Cali Barbecue Media → https://www.calibbq.mediaOrganization Referenced → Neuroendocrine Cancer Foundation → https://www.ncf.net/Book → The Chief Storytelling Officer by Rain Bennett → Coming August 25th https://amzn.to/4eihvqlFor more storytelling tips and strategies, visitWebsite → https://rainbennett.comPodcast → https://thestorytellinglabpodcast.comOr follow along at:TikTok → https://www.tiktok.com/@chiefstorytellingofficerTwitter/X → https://twitter.com/rainbennettInstagram → https://www.instagram.com/rainbennettFacebook → https://www.facebook.com/thestorytellinglabYouTube → https://www.youtube.com/@RainBennett Hosted on Acast.

In this special Founder Initiative pitch episode, four cybersecurity founders pitch their startups live to Robert Lowry, CSO of Tonic AI and former security leader at organizations including NASDAQ and the Federal Reserve Bank. Robert Lowry- https://www.linkedin.com/in/lowryrobert/ The conversation covers some of the biggest emerging enterprise security challenges around AI agents, shadow AI, runtime protection, memory systems, cybersecurity data infrastructure, and modern SOC operations. Featuring: * IceGuard — next-generation AI-native cybersecurity data infrastructure - Anders Holden, https://www.linkedin.com/in/andersbholden/ * Optimus Labs — agent defense and AI runtime governance - Nipun Gupta - https://www.linkedin.com/in/guptanipun/ * KeyCaliber — AI usage visibility and cybersecurity asset intelligence - Roselle Safran - https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosellesafran/ * Dyng/Pilot AI — AI memory and contextual learning systems - Ricardo La Rosa - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ricardo-larosa/ Instead of polished demos and sales decks, this episode captures real buyer reactions, live feedback, objections, and the kinds of questions enterprise security leaders actually ask before considering a product. If you're building for CISOs, enterprise security teams, or AI infrastructure buyers, this episode gives a rare inside look at how technical buyers evaluate early-stage startups in real time.

The data says we're making real progress on climate. So why does the conversation still feel like we're losing, and what does it mean to finally separate the signal from the noise? Joe Speicher didn't arrive at Autodesk's Chief Sustainability Officer role through a conventional channel. Deutsche Bank, the Peace Corps in the Philippines, impact investing — each stop informed how he thinks about deploying capital and measuring what actually changes. That background matters now more than ever, because the sustainability conversation, he argues, has too often been happening at the wrong altitude. Organizations set targets, publish disclosures, and track compliance. Meanwhile, the real decisions — how a building gets designed, which materials get specified, how early-stage procurement choices lock in carbon for decades — happen elsewhere, mostly without sustainability in the room. Autodesk's software sits upstream in that process, shaping choices before ground is ever broken in industries responsible for roughly 40% of global emissions. "Sustainability cannot be a sidecar," Speicher says. It has to be embedded in the tools people use every day, making it everyone's job rather than one team's report. He also makes the case for reading the data honestly: 40% of global electricity now comes from renewables and nuclear, 43 countries have peak emissions behind them, and $2.3 trillion was invested in the energy transition in 2025. Are you building your strategy around the signals — or the noise?Joe Speicher is Chief Sustainability Officer at Autodesk, where he leads global ESG strategy and works to embed carbon intelligence across the tools used by architects, engineers, contractors, and asset operators — industries collectively responsible for roughly 40% of global emissions. His path to the role was anything but direct: he began his career in finance at Deutsche Bank, served in the Peace Corps in the Philippines, and spent years working at the intersection of impact investing and corporate philanthropy before becoming Autodesk's CSO. That cross-sector background — finance, development, technology — shapes how he approaches sustainability as a strategic business function rather than a compliance obligation, focused on translating climate risk into decisions that drive measurable resilience and performance. In This Episode:  (00:00) Joe Speicher's unconventional path to climate leadership (03:26) From Deutsche Bank and Peace Corps to leading Autodesk's sustainability strategy (06:41) Why a finance and development background sharpens climate decision-making (09:20) Reading the real signals: global emissions progress and the economics driving change (12:05) Moving from commitments to action: embedding carbon intelligence into daily workflows (14:11) Climate adaptation, wildfire recovery, and the CSO as strategic operator Share with someone who would enjoy this topic, like and subscribe to hear all of our future episodes, send us your comments and guest suggestions!

It's not about you. Literally, prospecting is not about you. Prospecting is about your prospect, not you. So ..... STOP TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF AND YOUR AGENCY AND YOUR PEOPLE AND YOUR HISTORY AND ... Do you understand? Your prospects don't care about you. They don't care about you --- yet! They will later, just not now. While prospecting, you're a stranger and people don't want to meet with strangers to learn about the stranger's agency or about other strangers who work at a stranger's agency. Get it? You see, you need to focus on your prospect. It's about them. It's about the Prospect. It's about their problems and their struggles and their worries and their costs and what keeps them up at night.  Prospecting is about winning your prospect's undivided attention (a.k.a. their "Permission"). In this episode, host Charles Specht explains how to prospect using "Permission Prospecting" so that your prospect agrees to meet with you and then will give you everything you want and need so that you can get what you want. It's all about permission!

Gus Bartholomew, co-founder of Leafr, joins Jennifer and Kati to talk about one of the most persistent challenges in corporate sustainability: the expertise gap.With most large companies relying on just one to three people to deliver on increasingly complex mandates, sustainability teams are stretched impossibly thin. To help, Gus and co-founder Nick Valenzia created Leafr, a marketplace connecting businesses with more than 1,000 vetted freelance sustainability specialists across the UK, Europe and US.We consider whether the “fractional CSO” model is gaining traction, what Leafr's annual report reveals about how teams are actually structured, and why sustainability leaders might want to take a page from their marketing colleagues when it comes to negotiating budgets.Have a question for us?

Del Potter, PhD is an ethnopsychopharmacologist, chemist, and psychedelic pioneer whose career has moved across some of the most consequential and unconventional edges of the field, from Mesoamerican field research and underground manufacturing to cutting-edge pharmaceutical development and clinical trials. He brings a rare perspective to the psychedelic renaissance: not as a commentator, but as someone who was inside the apparatus that produced these compounds long before the current wave had a name. Dr. Potter holds a PhD from a joint program between the UCSF Medical School and UC Berkeley's Department of Anthropology, specializing in psychiatric anthropology, ethnopsychopharmacology, and neuropharmacology, with additional clinical training at the San Francisco Psychoanalytic Institute. His postdoctoral fieldwork examined shamanic traditions and indigenous psychotherapeutic practice across multiple lineages, including ceremonial psilocybin and Salvia divinorum use among the Mazatec of central Mexico, ayahuasca and yagé ritual among the Shuar of Ecuador, and parallel traditions among the Yanomami of Brazil and the Cofán of Colombia, contributing to Richard Evans Schultes' comprehensive survey of psychotropic botanicals worldwide. A formative mentorship with Alexander Shulgin oriented his chemistry toward novel tryptamine compounds, particularly in the DMT and 5-MeO-DMT structural classes, and he has since developed a portfolio of compounds that retain the neuroplasticity associated with psychedelic receptor activity while producing no psychedelic effect. On the pharmaceutical and biotech side, Dr. Potter served as Chief Science Officer at Leef Holdings, designing what became California's largest fully automated medical cannabis manufacturing facility, and later directed first-in-human 5-MeO-DMT clinical trials at UCSF through his work with Alvarius Pharmaceuticals, followed by a Phase 1 trial at Trinity College Dublin. At University College Dublin, he developed and validated the use of human stem cell-derived brain organoids to assess how psychedelic compounds reverse epigenetic changes caused by substance abuse. In 2023 he founded Spiritus Bioscience to develop novel delivery formats for psilocin, DMT, and 5-MeO-DMT, with the first product entering clinical trials in Australia targeting Alcohol Use Disorder. He currently serves as founder and CSO of BioUnbound Inc., exploring the intersection of psychedelics and bioactive peptides for mental health and longevity applications. Dr. Potter is currently completing his memoir, whose working title is Was a Different Time: Chronicles of a Psychedelic Pioneer in the Reign of the Cartels.Episode Highlights ▶ Del's background supplying California cannabis genetics to the Guadalajara cartel and working at Rancho Bufalo  ▶ Meeting cartel figures Miguel Felix Gallardo and Rafael Caro Quintero, and the fallout from the Kiki Camarena murder  ▶ Manufacturing LSD in Marin County using precursor chemicals sourced through cartel connections  ▶ How a DEA sting led to a federal task force, a stunning offer, and a get-out-of-jail-free card  ▶ Mentorship under Alexander Shulgin and the countercultural milieu of Esalen, Claudio Naranjo, Allen Ginsberg, and Terence McKenna  ▶ Why psychedelics have no intrinsic politics: the compound is the same, the container decides everything  ▶ The retreat economy as product development: when one medicine stops differentiating, operators start stacking  ▶ How the clinical and pharmaceutical models convert ceremony into a billable procedure  ▶ The psychoplastogen pipeline: engineering the experience out so the worker is back at their desk by Wednesday  ▶ Indigenous cosmological governance as a technical achievement, not a romanticized ideal  ▶ The concept of restraint and reciprocity as regulatory systems, and what Western culture has lost  ▶ Why patenting psilocybin protocols and dosing postures is a winnable legal argument  ▶ Publicly funded, community-governed clinics as the only container that can hold what these compounds require  ▶ The mental health crisis as inseparable from the housing, wage, care, and climate crises  ▶ Building a parallel infrastructure: cooperatives, commons defense, and indigenous benefit sharing as models    Dr. Del Potter's Links & Resources ▶ https://delpotterphd.substack.com ▶ https://www.facebook.com/del.potter.75 ▶ @drdelpotter.bsky.social ▶ www.biounbound.com ▶ https://www.instagram.com/potter_del/ Download Beth's free trainings here:  Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business:  https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-business Integrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business ▶ Beth's Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching  ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services ▶ Instagram:  @bethaweinstein  ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz  Download Beth's free trainings here: Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-businessIntegrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business▶ Beth's Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services▶ Instagram: @bethaweinstein ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz

All Things Sustainable is the official podcast of the inaugural Climate Week Zurich taking place May 4-9, and all week we're bringing you special daily episodes from Zurich. In our third episode of the week, we're talking to Zurich Insurance Chief Sustainability Officer Linda Freiner. Zurich Insurance is one of the world's largest insurers, serving over 82 million customers in more than 200 countries and territories across multiple types of insurance, including property & casualty and life insurance.   Linda explains how the insurance industry is evolving to address climate change. She says climate mitigation and adaptation are both needed to build systemic resilience amid compounding global crises.  "You can no longer look at climate risk on its own, or geopolitical risk on its own, or social risk on its own. They're all interconnected and they're all compounding," Linda says. "As an insurance company, it's our job to help our customers navigate those risks and build the right resilience measures in place to be able to withstand the shocks." This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we talk to Chief Sustainability Officers around the world about how they're navigating the sustainability landscape. Linda says the CSO role has "changed tremendously" in recent years. Now, she says, "it's about the focus on execution. We have set all the big commitments. We have put out the plans."   The All Things Sustainable podcast will be back with more special coverage from Climate Week Zurich throughout the week, so please stay tuned.  Learn more about events S&P Global is hosting during Climate Week Zurich: Climate Week Zurich 2026 : Turning Uncertainty into Opportunity | S&P Global  Listen to all the episodes in our CSO Insights series: CSO Insights by All Things Sustainable - YouTube  Listen to previous episodes of the All Things Sustainable podcast about insurance and climate:  Why all eyes are on insurance in climate risk conversations | S&P Global   Why insurance is becoming central to climate risk conversations | S&P Global  What the LA wildfires show about climate change and the future of insurance | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

Hardware-Faithful Digital Twins for Quantum Computing with Izhar MedalsyIzhar Medalsy is not a career qubit theorist. His path runs from a physical chemistry PhD and an ETH Zurich postdoc in atomic force microscopy and ternary nanoscale logic, through productizing scientific instruments at Bruker, through building one of the fastest resin 3D printers on the market, into co-founding Quantum Elements in 2023 with Daniel Lidar (USC) and Amir Yacoby (Harvard). That arc — nanoscale measurement scientist turned deep-tech operator — shapes how he thinks about the simulation gap in quantum computing.The conversation lands at a specific moment. In April 2026, Quantum Elements published a joint result with AWS, USC, and Harvard simulating a distance-7 rotated surface code with 97 physical qubits using full quantum master equations on AWS HPC7a, and announced a deeper collaboration with Rigetti Computing on next-generation superconducting processors. If you care about how error correction strategies, decoders, and pulse-level controls actually get developed before they ever touch hardware, this episode is for you.EPISODE SPONSORThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine. The need for computational power is rapidly increasing in every sector. From drug discovery to material innovation to complex financial modeling, classical systems are reaching their absolute limits. It's time for a paradigm shift. The answer is a scalable quantum network, built on open standards and vendor-agnostic architecture. By uniting distributed quantum devices, you unlock limitless computational power.Learn more about the Cisco Universal Quantum Switch at Outshift.comGo deeper with the blog post The switch that quantum networking has been waiting for====================================================================================================What We Get IntoWhy generic noise models fall short and what "hardware-faithful" actually means when two nominally identical QPUs have different noise fingerprintsHow Quantum Elements scaled open-system master-equation simulation from a brute-force ceiling around 16 qubits to 97 qubits using stochastic compression on top of Quantum Monte CarloThe compute reality of the distance-7 surface code run on AWS HPC7a — only 96 vCPUs and a few hundred gigabytes of memory, not the thousands of vCPUs they initially fearedWhy decoders are the invisible bottleneck in fault tolerance, and where AI-trained decoders fed by digital twin data could plausibly run inside the real-time quantum-classical loopExtending error suppression from physical qubits up to logical qubits — the IBM Eagle work where digital-twin-guided strategies reportedly took entangled logical qubit fidelity from 43% to 95%How the same digital twin approach extends to neutral atoms (live today) and ion traps (on the roadmap)What Rigetti gets out of the partnership, what it means to have Chad Rigetti on the board, and how Constellation fits alongside real hardware timeIzhar's "wooden models in the air tunnel" critique of how the quantum industry currently iterates — and what a parallel virtual development track buys youResources & LinksGuest & CompanyIzhar Medalsy — Quantum Elements team page — Background and role at Quantum Elements.Izhar Medalsy on LinkedIn — Full career arc from ETH biophysics through 3D printing to quantum.Quantum Elements — Constellation platform, where listeners can build their own virtual QPU and run circuits, error suppression, and QEC experiments.Papers & ArticlesAWS Quantum Computing Blog: Decoding realistic QEC syndrome with Quantum Elements digital twins — Primary technical reference for the 97-qubit distance-7 result discussed in the episode.The Next Platform: How HPC and AI Digital Twins Accelerate Quantum Error Correction (Apr 17, 2026) — Independent reporting on the AWS/USC/Harvard simulation.The Quantum Insider: Quantum Elements & Rigetti collaboration (Apr 21, 2026) — Details on the partnership Izhar describes.Guest post: Quantum Digital Twins — The Missing Acceleration Layer — Izhar's own framing of the thesis.The Next Platform: Startup Profile of Quantum Elements (Jan 2026) — Background on the company.arXiv 2603.14607 — Calibration-Based Digital Twins for IBM Quantum Hardware — Useful independent context on the limits and promise of calibration-based twins.Key Quotes & Insights"Sometimes when I look at the quantum industry, there are instances where you think, well, it's almost like building the next fighter jet with wooden models in the air tunnel." — Izhar's framing for why the field needs a real simulation layer.On hardware awareness: each modality, each QPU, sometimes each calibration cycle has its own pulses, its own noise processes, and its own failure modes. You cannot build the control stack without modeling where you are starting from and where you are trying to get to.Insight: The brute-force ceiling for open-system master-equation simulation is roughly 16 qubits. Stochastic compression layered on Quantum Monte Carlo is what let Quantum Elements reach distance-7 surface code at 97 qubits — exploiting sparsity rather than enumerating the full state space.On logical qubits: "We cannot assume that logical qubits will be noise-free." Error suppression strategies developed at the physical level need to be re-derived at the logical level, and digital twins are how you train and test those strategies before hardware.Insight: The most interesting downstream story may not be simulation itself but AI decoders trained on digital-twin-generated data — small enough to run at the edge, fast enough to live inside the real-time quantum-classical loop.Related EpisodesEpisode 52 — Quantum noise with Daniel Lidar — Quantum Elements' co-founder and CSO on the noise suppression and error correction foundat...

Mythos just found 30,000 new vulnerabilities, and now every security team is asking the same question: what actually matters? In this episode, Ron Eddings sits down with Dan Pagel, CEO at Brinqa, and Brad Hibbert COO & CSO at Brinqa, to break down the Anthropic Mythos moment that rattled the security industry. From the panic of millions of new findings dropping overnight to the strategy of narrowing them down to the 50 that actually matter in YOUR environment, this episode is a masterclass in exposure management at machine speed. Dan and Brad share how Brinqa helps organizations make sense of massive volumes of findings, correlating data across 260+ connectors, enriching vulnerability context, and delivering clear, explainable actions to IT operations teams. They also tackle the bigger question: how do you build enough trust in AI to let it take autonomous action on your behalf? The answer starts with better data, better explainability, and knowing when to keep humans in (or on) the loop. Impactful Moments 00:00 - Introduction 02:00 - What just happened?
