In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I discuss how Palantir's latest customer wins reveal a shift from point solutions to end-to-end AI strategies.Highlights00:19 — Palantir's got a customer that, very shortly after signing a deal for a fairly limited AI engagement, said it wanted to go enterprise-wide with an investment that's up 8x over what the original one was. This signals where CEOs are driving these AI-centered business transformations to ensure that they go end-to-end here and have enhanced business outcomes as the goal.01:21 — This medical device manufacturer CEO went to the Palantir executive team and said, “What would we need to do to make this an end-to-end business transformation powered by AI, designed to drive greater outcomes?” And very quickly, they rewrote the whole deal. So five months after this initial thing, they had a new deal going on — eight times bigger.02:31 — So again, there we see this notion of Palantir doing some different things and engaging with customers in different ways. So, I think broadly what we're seeing here, overall, with these AI-centered business transformations is: time is the enemy — not your traditional competitors, not necessarily the new ones. It is this notion of time.03:40 — If you're on the customer side here, I think you've got to look at this and take a hard view of what's going on inside your company. Is it a lot of these little disjointed trials that could have a nice little upward bump in efficiency or cost savings? Or are you shooting for the moon here? Visit Cloud Wars for more.

In this episode of Holy Disruption, Heather Schott sits down with filmmakers Chuck Konzelman and Cary Solomon—creators of Unplanned and Nefarious—to expose the spiritual war within Hollywood and how media has intentionally discipled generations away from God. Together they unpack Hollywood's hidden agendas, from normalized witchcraft and anti-God messaging to the strategic push for abortion and the shaping of cultural beliefs through storytelling. They share firsthand experiences of demonic activity during filming, why they believe Hollywood is collapsing under its own corruption, and how God is raising up a new movement of Kingdom creatives in places like Texas and Tennessee. This episode calls the Church to boldness, purity, and creative obedience as God prepares to reclaim media for His glory and awaken a generation to truth.

Investor and healthcare disruptor Mark Cuban joins The Other 80 to talk about his online pharmacy, Cost Plus Drugs, that is bringing affordable drugs with transparent markups to American households. Mark lays out his basic formula for taking overhead and complexity out of the US healthcare system by disaggregating huge vertical businesses and disintermediating middlemen.In this episode, Mark Cuban pitches:That direct contracting with hospitals is his next healthcare disruptionWhy he thinks medical schools should be freeHow financial audits are a first step to lowering healthcare pricesWhy price transparency is contagiousMark thinks the best way to make change is from outside the system:“What makes [Cost Plus Drugs] radical is when we started, everybody presumed and expected that we would work within the system. That we would partner with the big three wholesalers that control 98% of the sale of drugs - that we would partner with the big three PBMs that control 85% of prescriptions. And, we did the exact opposite because we knew they were the problem.”Relevant LinksThe Cost Plus Drugs mission statementRead and watch Mark Cuban testimony for the Senate Special Committee on Aging More on Mark's hospital negotiation strategyAbout Our GuestMark Cuban is an investor who lives for his family, his "Shark Tank" companies and the Dallas Mavericks.

In a world where algorithms and in person marketing compete for our attention and affection, the season of remembering the birth of Christ and awaiting his return provides light in the darkness. This week we began a four week sermon series on Advent – the season of preparing for the arrival of our King at Christmas. This church season has been celebrated for millennia, and while not prescribed to the Church in scripture, faithful saints have been marking these four weeks on calendars that we, the sons and daughters of God and the watching world around us, might remember that Christ has come. Christ will come again. (Longer read - https://leecadden.substack.com/p/the-disruption-of-advent)

The latest edition of the retail industry's leading podcast features an in-depth conversation with Jason Buechel, CEO of Whole Foods Market and Vice President of Amazon Worldwide Grocery Stores, who shares Amazon's rapidly expanding grocery ambitions. Already surpassing $100 billion in gross sales, Amazon is leaning into grocery as a strategic category driven by frequency, loyalty, Prime stickiness, and the potential to unite all household purchasing into a seamless digital and physical ecosystem.Buechel explains how Amazon is transforming grocery shopping—a category in which consumers currently visit four to five retailers a month—into a single, unified experience. With more than 1,000 same-day grocery delivery locations today scaling to 2,300 cities, store-level innovations such as Whole Foods Daily Shop formats, and the integration of perishables directly into Amazon baskets alongside electronics or apparel, the company is erasing long-standing channel barriers. He also outlines the “one grocery” operational vision: unified supply chains, technology stacks, and customer journeys across banners, while preserving the brand trust and standards that Whole Foods customers demand.The episode opens with co-hosts Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc breaking down early holiday results. This year's hottest retail storyline, however, may be the sudden emergence of agentic AI. Tools such as Amazon's Rufus and ChatGPT are now influencing search and conversion decisions, helping fuel what the hosts dub “the most agentic Christmas yet.” With traffic gains from AI agents multiplying, the shift from traditional search to intelligent assistants is poised to accelerate dramatically in 2026.The discussion then turns to Kohl's, and the decision to name interim CEO Michael Bender to the permanent position. The hosts frame this as symptomatic of a deeper issue: a retailer with declining relevance in a shrinking total addressable market.On the heels of new quarterly earnings reports they also spotlight the theme of “profitless prosperity”—brands reporting modest sales improvements but sliding EBITDA as tariffs, promotions, and supply chain pressures erode margin—the overarching message: top-line growth is not victory unless gross profit dollars follow.The episode concludes with the remarkable rise of Google's AI game, and Sears inexplicably still operating a handful of stores (though likely not for much longer).

What if a 110-year-old textbook company decided it wasn't in the textbook business anymore?We sit down with Steve Brown, CEO of Nelson Education, to talk about how a legacy brand chose to blow itself up—on purpose. From a “great bowl of vanilla” to a bold new flavour, Steve walks us through Nelson's reinvention and the birth of Edwin, a curriculum-aligned platform built to put everything teachers and students need in one trusted space.We dig into the skills that matter most in an uncertain world—literacy and numeracy as bedrock, but also equity, empathy, and the courage to debate. For Steve, when students learn to question well and lead with understanding, societies thrive. His north star isn't just better classrooms—it's a measurable lift in national GDP powered by engaged, creative graduates.On AI, he draws a firm line: tool, not product. Instead of leaning on public models that hallucinate, Nelson built its own large language model trained on rigorously vetted content. The payoff? Faster development, smarter assessment, and genuinely personalized learning—without trading away trust.Along the way, we talk naysayers, the five whys, and the “humble arrogance” it takes to make big bets and hold steady when things get rough.If you care about modern learning, teacher time, and scaling what works without losing soul, this one's worth your hour. Subscribe, share it with a colleague who needs a spark, and tell us—what would you disrupt first?

We're joined by Dan Rickards for an honest and insightful conversation about what effective change leadership really looks like now: not top-down communication, not rigid plans, but trust, transparency, and two-way dialogue. Because people don't resist change - they resist being changed without a voice.

Steve Blank: Blind to Disruption Steve Blank is an Adjunct Professor at Stanford and co-founder of the Gordian Knot Center for National Security Innovation. Credited with launching the Lean Startup movement and the curriculums for the National Science Foundation Innovation Corps and Hacking for Defense and Diplomacy, he's changed how startups are built, how entrepreneurship is taught, how science is commercialized, and how companies and the government innovate. Steve is the author of The Four Steps to the Epiphany and The Startup Owner's Manual and is the author of his recent article at steveblank.com: Blind to Disruption: The CEOs Who Missed the Future. Leaders may see the future coming, but we aren't always incentivized to act on it. In this conversation, Steve and I discuss what we can learn from the common patterns of disruption so we don't miss what's next. Key Points In the 1890s, there were approximately 4,000 carriage and wagon makers in the United States. Only one company made the transition to automobiles. In each of the three companies that survived, it was the founders, not hired CEOs, that drove the transition. Studebaker recognized that it wasn't in the business of carriages; it was in the business of mobility. Clayton Christensen taught us that disruption begins with inferior products that incumbents don't take seriously. The real problem isn't that companies can't see the future. It's that they are structurally disincentivized to act on it. Parsing innovation theatre vs. innovation means paying attention to what's actually shipping. If nothing is and you want to innovate, look elsewhere. Bubbles in the market are normal. Timing may be off, but that doesn't mean disruption isn't happening.

Arsenal leave Stamford Bridge with just one Premier League point after a chaotic afternoon defined by early bookings, a makeshift back line, and a referee who lost control long before Caicedo finally saw red.

An uncounted number of extra people have died, and 2.5 million have lost access to medicine to block the spread of HIV and AIDS. That's because of huge cuts to global aid programmes since US President Donald Trump returned to the White House in January. UNAIDS warns that unless the situation improves, the funding cuts will mean an extra 3.3 million people will be infected by HIV over the next five years. On World AIDS Day, we spoke in Perspective to Christine Stegling, Deputy Executive Director of the Policy, Advocacy and Knowledge Branch of UNAIDS.

In an AI disrupted world, what do you do when technology is moving faster than your people? Heather Jerrehian, Silicon Valley CEO, investor, and co-author of Sail to Scale, reveals why trust, psychological safety, and human-centred leadership are now the critical skills CEOs need to navigate AI-driven disruption. For most organisations, AI doesn't fail because the tech isn't ready. It fails because people don't feel safe enough to adopt it. But for Heather, this moment became a masterclass in leading through uncertainty, navigating resistance, and bringing teams with her into the future. In this conversation with Rebecca Jenkins and Callum Jenkins, Heather explains what CEOs must understand about human behaviour, fear, change, and how to build the trust that makes transformation possible. This is not theory, it's hard-earned insight from someone who has launched, pivoted, scaled, and exited companies at the heart of the AI revolution, including a transformational acquisition by ServiceNow. What you'll learn in this episode: Why AI adoption fails inside organisations, and the hidden fears leaders aren't addressing. How to build psychological safety so your people don't resist AI, but embrace it. The leadership behaviours that create trust during periods of disruption. How Heather's ‘listening tour' revealed a market opportunity that changed the trajectory of her company. Why futurist leaders must learn the skill of bringing people with them, not running ahead alone. The four waves of growth from Sail to Scale, and how to navigate each one without losing your team. Why human-centred leadership is the only sustainable strategy in an AI-powered world. This is for: CEOs, Founders, and C-suite leaders navigating AI-driven change, organisational resistance, or the complexity of leading people through disruption. ----more---- Connect with Heather: LinkedIn: Heather Jerrehian X: @Jerrehian Book: Sail to Scale: Steer Your Startup Clear of Mistakes from Launch to Exit (Amazon) ----more---- LEAD TO SUCCEED  is sponsored by RJEN The Revenue Architect.   Get your Boardroom Briefing for Scalable Growth How to breakthrough revenue plateaus, even in difficult market conditions.

The male (a father) plays a very important role. Masculinity cannot be entirely and comprehensively supplemented by a mother. It is not “do as I say”, it is “do as you see me doing”. The eyes take in the largest amount of information during the communication process.What gets set up in childhood, plays out in adulthood, in how we interact with others; seeking to bond, yet avoid repeat hurt. It is called Insecure Attachment. Insecure Attachment in Adulthood, often presents as “Love Addiction”, where the individual is not so much chasing Love, but connection; acceptance; to be inclusive; to be wanted; to be secure.The stuff of Sex, Porn, Love Addiction is indiscriminate. It impacts, in a significant way, women, children, men, LGBTQI community - cutting across all of the societal stratas and ages - (aged 9 to 75). The scale of addiction is staggering and is at pandemic levels:•          12% of all internet websites contain pornography.•          25% of all search engine queries—68 million per day—relate to sex.•          35% of all downloads are pornographic.•          70% of men aged 18–24 visit porn sites monthly.•          Average first exposure: 11 years old.•          1 in 5 pastors struggle with pornography.•          Over 50% of practising Christians report occasional porn use.•          Neurodivergent individuals show higher compulsive-use rates. Get some help from The Kairos Centre.

Die Deutsche Börse plant die größte Übernahme ihrer Geschichte. Und: Microsoft-CEO Nadella spricht über die Sorge vor einer KI-Blase, Disruption durch ChatGPT und Protektionismus.

Most people run from government bureaucracy. Pavan Parikh ran toward it—and decided to rewrite the system from the inside.He believes public service should move like a startup: fast, transparent, and built around people, not process.But when tradition, power, and red tape pushed back, he didn't fold—he went to the statehouse to fight for reform.So how do you disrupt a 200-year-old system that was never built for speed or equity?In Episode 188 of the Disruption Now Podcast, Pavan breaks down how he's modernizing Hamilton County's court systems, digitizing paper-heavy workflows, and using AI and automation to reduce barriers to justice rather than create new ones. Whether you work in government, policy, law, or tech, you'll see how startup tools and mindsets can create real impact, not just buzzwords.Pavan Parikh is the elected Hamilton County Clerk of Courts in Ohio, focused on increasing access to justice, improving customer service, and modernizing one of the county's most important institutions. In this episode, we talk about what happens when a startup mindset collides with decades-old court processes, why culture eats technology for breakfast, and how AI can help everyday people navigate civil cases, evictions, and protection orders more effectively.You'll also hear Pavan's personal journey—from planning a career in medicine to 9/11 shifting him toward law and public service to ultimately leading one of the most prominent offices in Hamilton County. We get into fear of AI, job-loss anxiety within government, and how he's reframing AI as a teammate that frees staff for higher-value work rather than replacing them.If you've ever looked at the justice system and thought “there has to be a better way,” this deep dive into startup thinking for government will show you what that better way can look like—and what it takes to build it from the inside.What you'll learn in this episode:How startup thinking for government can reduce friction and errors in court processesWhy is Pavan obsessed with access to justice and end-user experience for everyday residents?How Hamilton County is digitizing records, streamlining evictions, and modernizing civil protection order filingWhere AI and automation can safely support court staff and help-center attorneysWhy change management is the real challenge—not the technologyHow local government can be a faster “lab” for responsible AI than federal agenciesWhat it really looks like to design systems around people, not paperworkChapters:00:00 Why the government needs startup thinking03:15 Pavan's path from medicine to law and 9/11's impact10:45 Modernizing Hamilton County courts and killing paper workflows22:10 AI, access to justice, and reimagining the Help Center35:30 Careers, values, and becoming a disruptor in public serviceQuick Q&A (for searchers):Q: What does “startup thinking for government” mean in this episode?A: Treating residents as end users, iterating on systems, and using tech and AI to automate low-value tasks so staff can focus on service and justice outcomes.Q: How is Hamilton County using technology to improve access to justice?A: By digitizing records, expanding the Help Center, improving online access to cases, limiting or removing outdated eviction records, and building easier online processes for civil protection orders.Q: Will AI replace court jobs?A: Pavan argues AI should handle repetitive questions and data lookups so humans can spend more time problem-solving, doing quality control, and helping people with complex issues.Connect with Pavan Parikh (verified/public handles):Website: PavanParikh.comX (Twitter): @KeepPavanClerkFacebook: Pavan Parikh for Clerk of Courts / @KeepPavanClerkInstagram: @KeepPavanClerkOffice channel: Hamilton County Clerk of Courts – @HamCoClerk on YouTubeDisruption Now resources:Subscribe to YouTube for more conversations at the intersection of AI, policy, government, and impact.Join the newsletter for weekly trends in AI and emerging tech for people who want to change systems, not just complain about them. bit.ly/newsletterDN#StartupThinking #GovTech #AccessToJusticeDisruption Now: Disrupting the status quo, making emerging tech human-centric and Accessible to all.

In this episode The Remarkable Retail Podcast's co-host Michael LeBlanc's guest is with Lauren Price, Senior Vice President, E-Commerce & Digital Marketing for COS North America discussing her impressive career trajectory and work positioning the H&M-owned brand for growth in a competitive, fast-moving fashion retail landscape.Lauren's career began in the early days of luxury e-commerce at Createthe Group, building first-generation online stores for high-end brands . Her path included consulting with Demandware and L2 (Scott Galloway's firm), leading to her first in-house brand role at J.Crew before joining COS—a globally recognized fashion brand known for exceptional quality, timeless style, and meticulous craftsmanship.At COS, Lauren oversees North American marketing and digital commerce, a key growth market. She explains how COS benefits from the resources of a global parent company while operating with the agility of a smaller regional business. This unique position allows for strategic experimentation while maintaining the brand's commitment to premium quality.A highlight from the conversation is COS's viral marketing moment: a $45 T-shirt compared on TikTok to a $15 Uniqlo tee, with the influencer praising COS's superior quality and construction. This sparked organic buzz and significant new customer acquisition, prompting Lauren's team to launch a targeted influencer gifting campaign. The lesson: seize authentic, organic momentum quickly and amplify it with campaigns that focus on authenticity, craftsmanship, and product education—especially to win over savvy Gen Z shoppers.Lauren also tackles the emerging challenge of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), advising brands to prepare product catalogs for AI-driven search while maintaining current SEO performance. She predicts AI search adoption will accelerate faster than previous digital shifts, urging retailers to run both short-term and long-term optimization in parallel.As the discussion turns to holiday planning, Lauren offers several pieces of practical, results-focused advice.

When the world around you feels chaotic, leading a team can feel overwhelming, especially when your inner world is just as loud. Most managers try to push through, rely on willpower, or double down on doing more. But in reality, external chaos only becomes manageable when we learn to work with the internal chaos driving our emotions, reactions, and habits.Fortunately, this week's guest helps us unpack exactly why leaders get stuck in overwhelm and how to shift back into clarity and confidence.Rob Kalwarowsky is a world-renowned executive coach, author of the best-selling book Capitalizing on Chaos, and keynote & TEDx speaker. We explore the hidden parts of ourselves that shape our leadership, the subconscious fears that drive “DIY leadership,” people-pleasing, and imposter syndrome, and the practice that brings you back to center when everything feels too much.If you've ever found yourself spiraling, overworking, micromanaging, avoiding decisions, or doubting your capability even when you're successful… this conversation will help you understand what's happening inside your brain and what to do next.Rob's practical framework gives you the mental tools to lead yourself and your team with steadiness, self-awareness, and strength, even when everything feels uncertain.Get FREE mini-episode guides with the big idea from the week's episode delivered to your inbox when you subscribe to my weekly email.Join the conversation now!Conversation Topics(00:00) Introduction – Leading through internal and external chaos.(01:07) How self-awareness impacts leadership and team dynamics.(04:14) The DIY Leader—When doing everything holds you back.(07:44) TA tool for acknowledging stress and building empathy.(10:25) Understanding internal leadership behaviors.(16:21) Using self-awareness to improve interactions and decision-making.(19:41) Applying the “Parts Framework” to enhance collaboration.(22:50) How your internal state affects team morale.(24:41) Recognizing and managing energy-draining saboteurs.(30:39) [Extended only] Team strategies for shared language and stress signals.(32:56) [Extended only] Using vulnerability and playful cues to improve team communication.

Steve and Michael open this week's episode with a deep dive into the retail news of the week, marked by sharp contrasts in performance across the retail landscape. Walmart continues to separate itself from the pack, delivering another standout quarter, as omni-channel rival Target delivers another challenging quarter. The news segment analyses strong results from the off-price sector as TJX and Ross Stores both post impressive sales gains. The turnaround at Gap Inc. shows encouraging signs  under CEO Richard Dickson despite continued weakness at Athleta. In home improvement, both Home Depot and Lowe's see essentially flat comps as rate-locked consumers and affordability issues continue to weigh on spending. Furniture and home categories face rising tariff exposure, with Williams-Sonoma projecting its blended tariff rate jumping from 6% to 35%—a margin headwind that underscores industry-wide challenges. All told, the week's earnings reveal a retail landscape where the biggest players capture more share while many others struggle to keep pace.Steve and Michael revisit their encore interview with Artemis Patrick, President & CEO of Sephora North America—one of the most inspiring and resonant conversations in the show's archive. Artemis shares her extraordinary personal journey from immigrating from Iran and growing up in foster care to becoming one of the most influential leaders in global beauty.She details Sephora's global reach (34 markets, 3,000 stores), 700+ North American freestanding locations, a huge presence at Kohl's, and 40M+ Beauty Insider members, while unpacking the brand's unique power in incubating indie brands, championing diverse founders, and uniting physical and digital experiences long before Omni became a buzzword. Artemis also previews two transformational initiatives: a next-generation e-commerce platform enabling deeper personalization and a five-year renovation of every Sephora store—the largest capital project in the brand's history.After the interview the hosts each share their choice for buzziest story of the week before concluding with what's on their radar screens for the weeks ahead.

PJ talks to Noreen O'Callaghan from Watergrasshill who is Secretary Fórsa's School Secretaries Branch about the talks which broke down Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The conversation moves back to the USSR with Nikita Khrushchev's 1956 Secret Speech, which led to disruption in Eastern Europe. The Cuban Missile Crisis (1962) is analyzed as an act of traditional great power politics driven by the desire to prove Soviet superiority and overturn the strategic balance in intercontinental ballistic missiles. The 1979 invasion of Afghanistan is highlighted as a remarkable mistake that undermined détente and gave the United States an opportunity to pressure the USSR. Mikhail Gorbachev attempted to reform and reinvigorate Soviet communism based on a close reading of Marx and Lenin, but failed because he did not understand that the system was not popular and rested entirely on force.

In this episode of 'Holy Disruption' hosted by Heather Schott, Senator Josh Hawley discusses the controversial concept of 'toxic masculinity' and defends the traditional values of biblical manhood. The conversation explores how modern culture attacks masculinity and the family structure, pushing against the destructive ideology that equates all masculinity with being inherently toxic. Senator Hawley highlights the importance of men stepping up to their divine roles as leaders, protectors, and servants in their families and communities. The episode also addresses the rise of feminism, LGBTQ movements, the transgender ideology, and their impact on masculinity and family values. As a solution, both Heather and Senator Hawley call for a revival of biblical principles to restore the family unit and spark a transformative awakening in America.

A stopgap funding measure was passed to keep the government operating until January 30, while negotiations for a long-term appropriations bill continue. Political Narrative Democrats are responsible for the shutdown, accusing them of: Blocking votes to fund programs like SNAP (food stamps). Intentionally prolonging the shutdown to harm Americans and blame Trump. Republicans are portrayed as consistently voting for “clean” funding extensions. Impact of Shutdown Economic and social harm cited: Missed paychecks for over 1 million federal workers. 20,000 flight cancellations/delays due to air traffic controller shortages. Disruption of SNAP benefits for 42 million Americans. Financial strain on contractors and small businesses. President Trump’s Remarks Trump’s speech during the signing of the bill includes: Accusations of Democratic “extortion” and prioritizing illegal immigrants. Calls to terminate the filibuster to prevent future shutdowns. Celebration of economic achievements: record stock market highs, lower gas prices, and tax cuts. Criticism of Obamacare, proposing direct payments to citizens for healthcare instead of insurance companies. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
