It's difficult to imagine my life without books. For as long as I can remember, reading has been my form of escape, my outlet for stress, for learning, or broadening my horizons as I am exposed to new ideas, thoughts, or a pleasant trip to another world. I can't quite wrap my mind around having a hard time reading … but today's author had many challenges to overcome as she struggled with severe dyslexia, discouragement from others, and her own spiritual battles to emerge as my favorite type of author I love to interview … the debut novelist. At sixty-four years old, Kristena Mears has published her first book called, Under the Penalty of Death. Will running set them free or sentence them to death? Keturah idolizes her brother, Justus. He stood his ground with Abba, declaring Yeshua Messiah, resulting in Keturah's desire to know more about Yeshua, and Abba proclaiming Justus dead to the family. Today, Keturah became a woman, but her joy ends in terror when Abba accepts an offer for her betrothal. Devising a plan to escape the arranged marriage is dangerous, but it works. Now she's able to find her brother and live as she chooses. Every choice she makes turns into disaster. Manipulating to get her own way puts her in difficulty and danger. Women get stoned for what she is doing. What happens if Justus and her new friends see through the deception? Will her actions alienate her from her brother forever? Most of all—how much does Yahweh demand of her life? Listen in as debut novel Kristena Mears talks candidly about her journey, her book, and what the Lord has done new in her life on Tuesday, February 20th, at 7 pm Eastern, Listen in 646-668-8485.

In this episode I do a dive deep with my guest, Marc Borrelli, into the critical importance of understanding a business's core customer. We explore how accurately identifying and comprehending the core customer is not just about demographics or market segmentation, but about genuinely understanding their needs, wants, and pain points. This understanding is pivotal for devising a successful business strategy and creating a unique market differentiation which contributes to a company that can thrive without you, giving you more options for your 4th quarter. The conversation further dives into the common pitfalls companies face when they fail to identify their core customer, leading to short-term tactical decisions rather than a cohesive, long-term vision.Equally helpful is for the listener who has exited their business to pursue another venture. Knowing your core customer is important to saving time so you can get up and running quicker with success.Marc Borrelli, CFA, is a recognized Strategic Advisor and Leadership Growth Coach, propelling CEOs and Executive Teams worldwide toward uncharted growth and success.

Authored by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay to appear anonymously in New York papers under the pseudonym "Publius" in 1787 and 1788, the Federalist Papers aimed to rally public support for the proposed Constitution of the United States. As such, it is one of the most important sources for understanding the original intent of the US Constitution by those who participated in its construction. In Federalist number one Alexander Hamilton sets forth the ambition of arguing the following positions in favor of the adoption of the Constitution: "I propose, in a series of papers, to discuss the following interesting particulars: THE UTILITY OF THE UNION TO YOUR POLITICAL PROSPERITY THE INSUFFICIENCY OF THE PRESENT CONFEDERATION TO PRESERVE THAT UNION THE NECESSITY OF A GOVERNMENT AT LEAST EQUALLY ENERGETIC WITH THE ONE PROPOSED, TO THE ATTAINMENT OF THIS OBJECT THE CONFORMITY OF THE PROPOSED CONSTITUTION TO THE TRUE PRINCIPLES OF REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT ITS ANALOGY TO YOUR OWN STATE CONSTITUTION and lastly, THE ADDITIONAL SECURITY WHICH ITS ADOPTION WILL AFFORD TO THE PRESERVATION OF THAT SPECIES OF GOVERNMENT, TO LIBERTY, AND TO PROPERTY."

They stand in contrast to "traditional" phishing emails that hackers design using a handful of general rules they have gleaned from experience.The V-Triad is an inductive model that replicates these rules. In this study, we compare users' suspicion towards emails created automatically by GPT-4 and created using the V-triad. We also combine GPT-4 with the V-triad to assess their combined potential. A fourth group, exposed to generic phishing emails created without a specific method, was our control group. We utilized a factorial approach, targeting 200 randomly selected participants recruited for the study. First, we measured the behavioral and cognitive reasons for falling for the phish. Next, the study trained GPT-4 to detect the phishing emails created in the study after having trained it on the extensive cybercrime dataset hosted by Cambridge. We hypothesize that the emails created by GPT-4 will yield a similar click-through rate as those created using V-Triad. We further believe that the combined approach (using the V-triad to feed GPT-4) will significantly increase the success rate of GPT-4, while GPT-4 will be relatively skilled in detecting both our phishing emails and its own.Stay tuned for all of our Black Hat USA 2023 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/bhusa____________________________ResourcesDevising and Detecting Phishing: Large Language Models (GPT3, GPT4) vs. Smaller Human Models (V-Triad, Generic Emails): https://www.blackhat.com/us-23/briefings/schedule/#devising-and-detecting-phishing-large-language-models-gpt-gpt-vs-smaller-human-models-v-triad-generic-emails-31659For more Black Hat USA 2023 Event information, coverage, and podcast and video episodes, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/black-hat-usa-2023-cybersecurity-event-coverage-in-las-vegasAre you interested in telling your story in connection with our Black Hat coverage?

The early 1970's saw the start of the medical specialty we now know as oncology. How does one create standards and practices for patient care during that time? Dr. John Glick is a pioneer during the dawn of oncology. He says that early work involved humanity, optimism, and compassion, all of which were the foundation of his career. Dr Glick describes the clinical experiences that drove him to oncology (4:28), his rapport with patients, which was portrayed in Stewart Alsop's book Stay of Execution (9:21), and his groundbreaking work developing the medical oncology program at the University of Pennsylvania (12:22).

Pat Loehrer: Welcome to Oncology, Etc. This is an ASCO education podcast. I'm Pat Loehrer, Director of Global Oncology and Health Equity at Indiana University. Dave Johnson: And I'm Dave Johnson, a medical oncologist at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas, Texas. If you're a regular listener to our podcast, welcome back. If you're new to Oncology, Etc., the purpose of our podcast is to introduce listeners to interesting people and topics in and outside the world of oncology. Today's guest is someone well-known to the oncology community. Dr. John Glick is undoubtedly one of oncology's most highly respected clinicians, researchers, and mentors. I've always viewed John as the quintessential role model. I will add that for me, he proved to be a role model even before I met him, which hopefully we'll talk about a little bit later.   To attempt to summarize John's career in a paragraph or two is really impossible. Suffice it to say, he is to the University of Pennsylvania Cancer Center what water is to Niagara Falls. You can't have one without the other. After completing his fellowship at NCI in Stanford, John joined the Penn faculty in 1974 as the Ann B. Young Assistant Professor. Some five decades later, he retired as the director of one of the most highly respected comprehensive cancer centers in the nation. Among his many notable accomplishments, I will comment on just a few. He established the Medical Oncology program at Penn and subsequently directed the Abramson Cancer Center from 1985 to 2006. Interestingly, he established the Penn Medicine Academy of Master Clinicians to promote clinical excellence in all subspecialties across the health system. He's been a driving force in philanthropy at Penn Medicine, culminating in his role as Vice President Associate Dean for Resource Development.  Over the past several decades, he has helped raise over half a billion dollars for Penn Med. We need you on our team, John. As a clinician scholar, John's research has helped shape standards of care for both breast cancer and lymphomas. For example, he pioneered the integration of adjuvant chemotherapy and definitive breast irradiation for early-stage breast cancer. In 1985, he chaired the pivotal NCI Consensus Conference on adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. He also was a driving force in a clinical landmark study published in The New England Journal some 20 or so years ago about the role of bone marrow transplant for advanced breast cancer. Most impressive of all, in my opinion, is John's legacy as a mentor to multiple generations of medical students, residents, and fellows.   So, John, we want to thank you for joining us and welcome. Thought we might start by having you tell us a little about your early life, your family, your parents, where you grew up, and how you got into medicine. Dr. John Glick: Well, thank you for having me on the podcast, Pat and David, it's always a pleasure to be with you and with ASCO. I grew up in New York City in Manhattan. My father was a well-known dermatologist. He was my role model. And from the age of eight, I knew I wanted to be a doctor. Nothing else ever crossed my mind. But having seen my father's many interests outside of medicine, I realized from very early that there was much more to medicine than just science. And that really induced me, when I went to college, to major in the humanities, in history, art history, and I actually took the minimum number of science courses to get into medical school. That probably wouldn't work today, but it was the start of my interest in humanism, humanities, and dealing with people outside of the quantitative sciences.  Dave Johnson: So that's reflected in how we all view you, John. You're one of the most humanistic physicians that I know personally. I wonder if you could tell us about your interest in medical oncology, and in particular, as one of the pioneers in the field. I mean, there wasn't really even a specialty of medical oncology until the early 1970s. So, how in the world did you get interested in oncology and what drew you to that specialty? Dr. John Glick: Well, I had two clinical experiences that drove me into oncology. The first, when I was a third year medical student at Columbia PNS, my first clinical rotation in internal medicine, I was assigned a 20-year-old who had acute leukemia, except he was not told his diagnosis. He was told he had aplastic anemia, receiving blood and platelets, and some form of chemotherapy. And I spent a lot of time just talking to him as an individual, not just taking care of him. And we became friends. And he was then discharged, only to be readmitted about two weeks later. And in the elevator, the medical assistant had his admission sheet, and unfortunately, it was facing the patient, and it had his diagnosis, acute leukemia. So he came into the ward and he confronted me. "Why didn't you tell me I had acute leukemia?" Well, I couldn't say the attendees forbade me to do that. So I took what today we would call ‘the hit', and apologized. But it stimulated me to reflect that honesty with patients was extremely important, and that oncology was just in its infancy. We knew nothing about it. It was not considered even a specialty. I don't think we used the word "oncology."  But that inspired me to take an elective in my fourth year at PNS, at an indigent cancer hospital called the Francis Delafield Hospital. It only took care of indigent cancer patients, and there were wards, twelve patients in a ward, six on each side, and nobody would go see the patients. It was almost as if they were afraid that if they were to touch the patient, they would get cancer. And I started talking to the patients, and they were human beings, but nobody had told them their diagnosis. Nobody had told them if they were terminal. And there were a few patients who were getting a new drug at that time for multiple myeloma called melphalan, and they actually had relief of some of the symptoms, of their bone pain. But I realized that there was a huge void in medicine that I could possibly help to fill.  And that was the era of Vietnam, and so I applied to the National Cancer Institute to become a commissioned officer in the Public Health Service to avoid the draft, to be on a service with, at that time, some very notable oncologists Vince DeVita, Ed Henderson, Paul Carbone. I had read some of their papers, and I was lucky to be accepted. And I was a clinical associate at the National Cancer Institute. And that was life-changing because there every patient was considered to be potentially curable. The advances at that time using MOPP for Hodgkin's disease, C-MOPP for lymphoma, some treatments for leukemia. George Canellos pioneered the use of CMF for metastatic breast cancer. It was an amazing, amazing experience. That was in 1971 to ‘73. Oncology did not become a true specialty till ‘73, but my two years at NCI were formative.  However, I realized that there was something missing in my training. Everybody was considered curable, but I had never seen a patient with metastatic colon cancer, metastatic lung cancer. The radiotherapists there did not like to teach clinical associates, and I knew that there was a place called Stanford. And Stanford had Saul Rosenberg in medical oncology for lymphomas and Henry Kaplan in radiotherapy. So, everybody was going to California, and my wife and I packed up and went to California and spent a year at Stanford, which, combined with my training at the NCI, led me to the principles that guided my career in oncology; humanity, optimism, reality, compassion, and a love for clinical trials.  I was very, very fortunate to be there at the dawn of medical oncology shortly after I decided to go to Penn, which at that time did not have a medical oncologist. In fact, I was the only medical oncologist at Penn for four years and did every consult in the hospital for four years, much to the chagrin of my wife. But I was fortunate to have great mentors in my career: Paul Carbone, Vince DeVita, Saul Rosenberg, Henry Kaplan, among many, many others. And that impressed me about the importance of mentorship because my career would never have been where it was or is without these mentors. Pat Loehrer: John, just to echo what Dave said, you've been such a tremendous mentor for us. Dave and I particularly, you took us under your wings when you didn't know who we were. We were people in the Midwest. We weren't from any place shiny, but we really appreciate that. Dave Johnson: So, John, I mentioned at the very beginning that I met you before I met you, and the way I met you was through Stewart Alsop's book, Stay of Execution. He portrayed you as an extraordinarily caring individual, and it tremendously impacted me. It was one of the reasons why I chose oncology as a specialty. I realize it's been 50 or more years ago and most of our listeners will have no idea who Stewart Alsop was. And I wonder if you might share with us a little bit of that experience interacting with someone who was particularly well-known in that time as a columnist for The New York Times.  Dr. John Glick: His brother Joe Alsop and Stu Alsop were two of the most famous columnists at that time. Joe Alsop was a hawk right-winger who lived in the Vietnam War. Stewart was charming, was a centrist Democrat, wrote the back page for Newsweek for years. He and I had very similar educational backgrounds and interests. And we functioned on two different levels—one as a physician-patient, and then we became friends. And he and his wife adopted us into the Georgetown set.  And I received a lot of criticism for socializing with a patient. But over the years, I've been able to become friends with many of my patients, and I've been able to compartmentalize their medical care from our friendship. And I use the analogy if I was a doctor in a small town and I was the only doctor,  I'd be friends with people in town, with the pastor and likely the mayor. But I have always believed that patients can become your friends if they want it and if they initiated it.   Taking care of Stewart Alsop was an amazing, amazing experience. We didn't know what he had. People initially thought he had acute leukemia. In reality, he had myelodysplastic syndrome, but that hadn't been described yet. He had a spontaneous remission, which I rarely see, probably due to interferon released from a febrile episode, all his blasts went away in his marrow. One of my children's middle name is Stewart. But professionally and personally, it was an incredible experience. It taught me the importance of being available to patients. They had my home phone number. We didn't have cell phone numbers in those days. We had beepers, but they didn't work. And from that point on, I gave my home phone number to patients, and I actually trained my children how to answer the phone. “This is Katie Glick. How can I help you? My father's not home. You need my father? Can I have your phone number? I'll find him and he'll call you back.” Patients still remember my children and their way of answering the phone. Pat Loehrer: One of the things you did do is create this medical oncology program at Penn, which has graduated some incredible fellows that have become outstanding leaders in our field. But can you reflect a little bit about the process of creating something that was never created before, like a medical oncology program? Dr. John Glick: Well, I came to Penn, my first day. Person who recruited me was on sabbatical. I asked where my office was and there was no office. There was an exam room. There was a clinic for indigent patients which we scrubbed by hand. There was another office for patients who paid. Within two months, I had abolished that. We had one– I hate to use the word clinic, people still use the word clinic today, but one office that took care of all patients, irregardless of means.   I saw every oncology consult in the hospital for four years. But I had a mentor, not only Buz Cooper, but fortunately, Jonathan Rhoads was Chairman of Surgery, and he was also Chairman of the President's Cancer panel. And what he said at Penn in surgery became the law. And then when we introduced lumpectomy for breast cancer and radiotherapy, he endorsed it immediately. All the other surgeons followed suit. I don't think there's any hospital in the country that adopted lumpectomy and radiotherapy for breast cancer as quickly. And the surgeons were instrumental in my career.  Now, I was taking care of gliomas, head and neck cancers, and it was difficult. If I had a colorectal patient, I'd call Charles Moertel at Mayo Clinic and say, “What do I do?” I was there when Larry Einhorn in 1975 presented his data on testicular cancer with the platinum. Unbelievably inspiring, transformational. It also showed the importance of single-arm studies. You didn't have to do randomized studies because the results were so outstanding. And so in my career, I did both single-arm studies, proof of principle studies, and then many randomized trials through the cooperative groups.  But the first four years were very difficult. I didn't know what the word ‘work-life balance' meant in those days. If somebody was sick, I stayed and saw them. It was difficult introducing new principles. When I first mentioned platinum after Larry's presentation, I was laughed out of the room because this was a heavy metal. When patients were dying, they died in the hospital, and I wanted to hang up morphine to assist them. The nurses reported me to the administration. I had to fight to get the vending machines for cigarettes out of the hospital. So there were a lot of victories along the way and a lot of setbacks.  It took me several years to have an oncology unit of six beds, and now I think we have 150 or 160 beds and need more. So it was an interesting and, in retrospective, a wonderful experience, but I didn't know any better. Fortunately, I had a great wife who was working at Penn and then at Medical College of Pennsylvania, and she was incredibly understanding, never complained. And I think my kids knew that on Tuesdays and Thursdays, don't bring up anything difficult with dad because he's had a really tough day in clinic. Dave Johnson: We were not in that era, but we were very close. And many of the struggles that you had were beginning to dissipate by the time we were completing our training. But it was still a challenge. I mean, all those things. I gave my own chemotherapy for the first few years I was in practice. I don't know that our colleagues today who have trained in the last, say, 10 or 15 years, actually realize that that was what we did. Most of the chemo was given in the hospital. It was not uncommon in the early days to have 20, 30, 40 inpatients that you would round on because there just wasn't an outpatient facility. But the corporate mind made a big difference, allowing us to give drugs like platinum in the outpatient arena. You span all of that era, and so you've seen the whole panoply of change that has taken place.  John, the other thing you did that has impressed me, in part because of my time as a Chair of Medicine, is you created this Academy of Master Clinicians. Can you tell us a bit about that and what was the motivation behind that?  Dr. John Glick: Ben had a strategic plan, and one of the pillars was talking about valuing clinical medicine and clinical excellence. But there was no implementation plan. It was sort of just words and left in the air. And I was no longer director of the cancer center, and I realized we had a lot of awards for research, awards for education, and no awards for clinical excellence. So I created the idea of having an academy and master clinician spend six months talking to all constituencies, chairs of various departments, directors of centers to get a buy-in. Wrote a three-page white paper for the dean, who approved it immediately. And then, as typical at Penn, I raised all the money for it. I went to one of my patients who was an executive at Blue Cross. I said I need $500,000 to start this program. And then subsequently, I raised $4 million to endow it. Today, it is the highest honor that a Penn clinician can receive.  You could be on any one of our multiple tracks. You have to see patients at least 60% of the time. You not only have to be a great doctor, you have to be a humanist. So the world's best thoracic surgeon who has a demeanor in the operating room that is not conducive to working with a nurse as a team doesn't get in. We emphasize professionalism, mentorship, citizenship, teaching, national reputation, local reputation, and clinical excellence. And so we've elected over 100 people, maybe 3% of the Penn faculty. We give an honorarium. We have monthly meetings now by Zoom. We have monthly meetings on various topics. We never have a problem getting any dean or CEO to come talk to us.  We were the first to do Penn's professionalism statement. The school subsequently adopted, and it's become the highest honor for a Penn clinician. It's very competitive. It's peer-reviewed. The dean has no influence. And we're very proud that 40% of the members of the academy are women. We have a high percentage of diversity compared to the numbers on our faculty, but you really have to be elected on merit, and some people that you might expected to be members of the academy aren't. It's one of the things I'm proudest of. It will go on in perpetuity because of the money we've raised. I think many of my accomplishments as a researcher will fade, as they typically do, but I'm very proud of the Academy, and I'm very proud of the people that I've mentored. Dave Johnson: It speaks to your values, John, and I think it's one of the reasons why you're so widely admired. Thank you for creating that. It proved to be a model for other institutions. I know that for a fact. One would think that valuing clinical care would be preeminent in medical schools, but in fact, it's often ignored. So again, I know that your colleagues at Penn appreciate your efforts in that regard.  Tell us a little about your term as ASCO president. What are you most proud about and what were your most difficult challenges? Dr. John Glick: Well, the most difficult challenge was that ASCO was in transition. I had to fire the company that ran the meeting. We had to decide that ASCO was going to hire a CEO. We hired John Durant, made a small headquarters, tiny staff, and did a lot of the work as being chief operating officer myself. It was the year that email was just getting started, and ASCO wasn't using it. So every Saturday from 8:00 to 6:00, I came into the office and my secretary wrote letters inviting people to be on the program committee or various committees. But it was a society in transition. The growth of membership was huge. The meeting sites had to be changed. We emphasized science. Some of the things that we did are still in existence today.  We formed the ASCO ACR Clinical Research Methods course. It's still given. That's one of our real highlights. We forged relationships with other societies, the National Coalition for Survivorship. We made the ASCO guidelines much more prominent. And I remember that we were going to publish the first guidelines on genetic testing for breast cancer, and the MCI went up in absolute arms, so I arranged a meeting. I was at the head of the table. On my right were Francis Collins, Richard Klausner, Bob Wittes, and a few other people. Then the ASCO people who wrote the guideline were on the left, and they didn't want us to publish it. They thought it was premature to have a guideline about genetic testing. And what I learned from that meeting is that you can agree to disagree with even the most prominent people in oncology and still maintain those relationships. But we did what's right, and we published a guideline on the JCO. There were so many wonderful things that happened at ASCO that I can hardly restate all that happened I guess 27 years later. It was exciting. ASCO was still young. There was a lot we had to do, and we could do it. You could just go ahead and do it. It was exciting. It was gratifying. It was one of the most fun years of my life. Dave Johnson: I mean, that transition from an outside company in many respects, controlling the premier activity of ASCO, its annual meeting to ASCO, taking that on, that defined ASCO, and that's what I remember most about your time as president. It was a bold move, and the hiring of John Durant was brilliant. I mean, he was such an incredible individual, and it was great that you guys were able to pull that off. Pat Loehrer: Thank you for what you've done.  You've had a number of your mentees if you will, and colleagues that have gone on to prominent positions, including, I think, at least three directors of NCI Cancer Centers. Can you just talk briefly how you would describe your mentoring style because you've been so successful? Dr. John Glick: First, there are two aspects. One is when people come to you, and then when you go to people, you sense they're in need. The key aspect of mentoring is listening. Not talking, listening. Looking for the hidden meanings behind what they're saying, not telling them what to do, presenting options, perhaps giving them clues on how to weigh those options in pros and cons, being available for follow-up. Mentoring is never a one-time exercise. Not criticizing their decisions. You may disagree with their decision, but it's their decision, especially if they've considered it. Being proud of the mentee, being proud of their accomplishments, following them over the years. And when they've gotten in trouble or failed to get the job that they wanted, always be there for them, not just in the good times, but in the times that are difficult for them professionally. I think that's one of the most important things.  Even today, I mentor three or four clinical department chairmen, and people ranging from full professors to newly appointed assistant professors. Now that I'm retired, mentoring is the one activity that I've really retained. It's extraordinarily satisfying, and I'm proud of the people that I've mentored. But it's their accomplishments, and the key aspect of mentoring is never to take credit. Dave Johnson: I'll give you credit for mentoring me, and I appreciate it. You were very instrumental at a very decisive point in my career when the old Southeast Cancer Group disbanded, and we were looking for a new cooperative group home. And you were instrumental in helping my institution come into the ECOG fold, and not just as a very junior member, but really as a player. And I'll never forget that, and we'll always appreciate that very much. Pat Loehrer: Ditto on my side, too. Dave Johnson: John, you mentioned that you're retired. What do you like to do in your "free time” if you're not mentoring? Dr. John Glick: Life is good. My daughter says I have a disease, O-L-D. My grandson says, “He's not old; he's almost 80. Look how well he's done.” “Here's $20.” I'm having fun. We are fortunate to have homes in different places. We spend the summer up in the Thousand Islands on the St. Lawrence River, spring and fall down in Charleston, then lots of time in Philadelphia. We travel. I play golf poorly. I'm getting a chance to read history again, go back to one of my great loves. I'm with my children and grandchildren more. I lost my first wife. I've been remarried for about twelve years, and I'm enjoying every moment of that. I'm not bored, but I do wake up in the morning with no anxiety, no realization that I have to herd sheep or herd cats. I have no metrics, I have no RVUs,  not behind of the EMR.  Dave Johnson: You're making it sound too good, John.  Dr. John Glick: We're having fun. And I have not been bored. I've not been down in the dumps. Each day brings a different aspect. We see a lot more of our friends. I exercise. I deal with the health problems that people get when they get older, and I have plenty of those. Seeing doctors takes a lot of time, but I'm grateful that I'm having these few years of retirement. I'm one of the people who is most fortunate to have attained everything they wanted to do in their professional life, and now I'm trying to do some of the same in my personal life. Dave Johnson: John, Pat and I both love to read. We love history. You mentioned that you're reading some history. Is there a book that you've read recently that you might recommend to us? Dr. John Glick: “the Last of the Breed” {With the Old Breed} It's about a private in the Pacific campaign who was not a commissioned officer; it's just a grunt on the ground. It brings the horrors of the Pacific island campaigns to life. But there's a huge number of books, some historical fiction. I'm a great fan of Bernard Cornwell, who's written about the Medieval times, Azincourt, 1356. I'll read two or three books a week. I'm devoted to my Kindle. Dave Johnson: If you could go back in time and give your younger self a piece of advice, what would that advice be?   Dr. John Glick: Try and achieve more of a work-life balance. I didn't have any choice. If I didn't do the consult, it didn't get done. That's not the situation today. But I have a second piece of advice, don't treat medicine as a 9 to 5 job. If a patient is sick, stay with the patient. Give the patient your home or cell phone number. Remember, medicine is not just a profession, but it can be a calling. Too few of our physicians today regard medicine as a calling. And even if you're employed, as most of us are by an academic or other institution, do what's right for the patient, not just what's right for your timesheet or the EMR. Remember that the patient is at the center of all we do and that medicine is a calling for some people, as it was for me. Dave Johnson: Great advice, John. Great advice.  Well, I want to thank Dr. Glick for joining Pat and me. This has been a delight. You're one of our role models and heroes.  I want to thank all of our listeners of Oncology, Etc., which is an ASCO educational podcast where we will talk about oncology medicine and other topics.

Traditional approaches and outdated processes are proving inadequate to meet these challenges. Consequently, many recruitment firms are failing to capitalize on the huge potential for growth. My next guest, Natasha Makhijani, has managed to transform these challenges into an opportunity to revolutionize the recruitment industry. In this episode, Natasha shares how her team has developed their own mobile apps to increase candidate attraction, engagement and diversity.  She also reveals how they ensure much greater diversity and how they're pioneering the use of Amazon's Alexa to stay at the cutting edge of executive search.

Their Oliver Sanderson OS Executive App – brings digital innovation to the executive search process. Natasha explains, “when we go out and map the candidates, once we've got a long list of candidates whom we think are of interest. At that point, you can either just reach out to them or you can send them a link to an app which allows them to watch a little video.” If they like what they see, they can proceed from there onwards but you already got them to the point to make a small commitment. The app is proving to be a highly effective solution to combat the challenges of a candidate-driven market.  Our Sponsors This podcast is proudly sponsored by i-intro®.  i-intro® is an end-to-end retained recruitment platform.
