Podcasts about drager

In deze aflevering van de Kennisnet-podcast spreekt Remco Pijpers met Siri Beerends, cultuursocioloog en onderzoeker bij medialab SETUP. Ze promoveert aan de Universiteit Twente op de manier waarop kunstmatige intelligentie het mensbeeld verandert. In het gesprek analyseert Beerends hoe AI behalve technologische ook culturele en morele gevolgen heeft. Welke rol speel het onderwijs daar volgens haar in? Drager van vooruitgang  Ze stelt dat technologie vaak wordt gepresenteerd als drager van vooruitgang, terwijl die veronderstelling zelden ter discussie wordt gesteld. “Technologie is niet goed of fout, maar ook niet neutraal. Elke technologie draagt een eigen waardensysteem met zich mee, waar we ons vaak niet van bewust zijn.” Volgens haar laat AI - met de nadruk op efficiëntie en berekenbaarheid - zien dat mensen steeds meer naar zichzelf kijken alsof ze machines zijn. Technologische vanzelfsprekendheden bevragen Vanuit SETUP werkt Beerends met kunstenaars aan projecten die technologische vanzelfsprekendheden bevragen. Humor en verbeelding spelen daarbij een belangrijke rol. In een workshop over AI en smartlappen leerden kinderen bijvoorbeeld dat creativiteit en gevoel niet zomaar vervangbaar zijn door software. “Het plezier zit niet in het efficiënte eindproduct, maar in het maakproces – in de snik, in het doorleefde.” Efficiënte ‘data-burgers' Het gesprek gaat ook over wat dit betekent voor leerlingen, leraren en schoolleiders. Deze belangrijke vraag is nu aan de orde, zegt ze: wil het onderwijs leerlingen opleiden tot efficiënte ‘data-burgers' of tot mensen die zich kritisch en creatief tot technologie kunnen verhouden? “Juist het persoonlijke en intermenselijke van de leraar wordt belangrijker, niet overbodiger.”

Founded in 2022, The Meatery MN has been creating a community of meathusiasts across the U.S. by creating an online platform for consumers to purchase high-quality beef, poultry and pork and have it shipped to them directly from the farm families who raised the animals.    As a gift from The Meatery MN this holiday season, use code Mittens15 at checkout to get 15% off an additional order.

They also discuss a recent Coalition to Stop Flu congressional briefing featuring NACCHO member Dr. Dianna Abney, Health Officer at the Charles County Health Department in Maryland, a 30th anniversary of the Vaccines for Children Program event featuring NACCHO's Board President Dr. Michael Kilkenny, and an open letter from NACCHO CEO Lori Tremmel Freeman to local health departments impacted by the recent hurricanes.

Boulder County has served for several years as a mentor for NACCHO's Food Safety Mentorship Program under the NEHA-FDA Retail Flexible Funding Model, NACCHO's Food Safety Workgroup, and with the Council to Improve Foodborne Illness Outbreak Response.  In their conversation, Drager discusses Boulder County Environmental Health Division's oral learner train the trainer program that provides essential food safety training to retail food service staff, regardless of their spoken language. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, retail food establishments experienced a significant labor shortage that led to burnout and high turnover. The labor shortage forced establishments to hire staff inexperienced in food handling and in recent years, it has been critical for local health departments to update their education and training programs to teach proper food handling practices and information on food safety to a wider audience. Drager also shared the improvements in Boulder County's food safety management systems that can help inform other local health departments in their food safety work.   ###   About NACCHO The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) represents the over 3,300 local governmental health departments across the country. These city, county, metropolitan, district, and tribal departments work every day to protect and promote health and well-being for all people in their communities.

Ciucă, înfiorat de sondajele care arată că nu prinde turul 2. Va renunța la candidatură? Trei variante pentru PNL (SpotMedia) - Marea amnistie fiscală e pielea ursului din pădure: Doar 4 mld. lei pot fi recuperați din ”creanțele de 180 mld. lei” anunțate de premierul Ciolacu (CursDeGuvernare) - Pozitivi la alcooltest după ce au consumat un corn cu ciocolată sau vanilie. Experimentul unor polițiști (Adevărul) SONDAJ. Mircea Geoană, lider cu 21%, Marcel Ciolacu pe locul al doilea, cu 17,2%. Elena Lasconi, scor dublu față de Nicolae Ciucă (Libertatea)Lupta pentru Palatul Cotroceni este una destul de strânsă. Candidata USR, Elena Lasconi, se clasează pe locul al treilea, cu 15,3%, la aproape șase procente de Mircea Geoană (independent) și două de Marcel Ciolacu (PSD), după cum arată datele unui ultim sondaj realizat pentru USR de Verifield, potrivit surselor Libertatea.Pe locul al patrulea este George Simion, cu 14,1%. La foarte mică distanță este Diana Șoșoacă, cu 13,9%.Departe de aceste procente este Nicolae Ciucă, cu 7,3%. Au mai fost măsurați Cristian Diaconescu (6% – independent), Kelemen Hunor (2,3% – candidat UDMR) și Ana Birchall (1,7% – candidată independentă).În ceea ce privește parlamentarele, fără a fi vreo surpriză, locul întâi e ocupat de PSD, cu o intenție de vot de 29,3%. Pe locul al doilea sunt liberalii, cu o intenție de vot de 17,8%, în timp ce pe locul al treilea este Alianța pentru Unirea Românilor, cu 16,6%. Ciucă, înfiorat de sondajele care arată că nu prinde turul 2. Va renunța la candidatură? Trei variante pentru PNL (SpotMedia)În PNL sunt discuții pentru găsirea unei variante de retragere a generalului. Campania de lansare a fost un eșec, cartea nescrisă a liderului liberal devenind subiect de glume pe rețelele sociale. O schimbare de strategie la PNL va avea efecte surprinzătoare asupra alegerilor parlamentare și prezidențiale din toamnă.Marea problemă a liberalilor e că nu au un înlocuitor competitiv. Asta a făcut ca în PNL să se formeze trei curente de opinie: Renunțarea la Nicolae Ciucă și susținerea Elenei Lasconi, candidata USR, singura care e pe trend ascendent în sondaje și are cotă de 16%. Astfel se formează o nouă alianță de centru-dreapta, PNL-USR, care are cele mai mari șanse să câștige alegerile prezidențiale și să ia un scor bun la alegerile parlamentare, apropiat sau mai mare ca al PSD. A doua soluție e o înțelegere cu PSD prin care formațiunea social-democrată să transfere voturi cu ajutorul primarilor către Nicolae Ciucă, astfel încât în finala prezidențială să intre Marcel Ciolacu și liderul liberal. Astfel s-ar rezolva problema majorității parlamentare, a președintelui (Ciucă) și a prim-ministrului (Ciolacu). Aici, problema principală e că nici PSD nu dispune de suficiente voturi, liderul social-democrat nefiind sută la sută sigur că ajunge în turul doi al prezidențialelor, deși are șanse mult mai mari ca Nicolae Ciucă. A treia e asumarea riscului ca Nicolae Ciucă să rateze finala. Partidul să intre în campanie, susținându-l pe actualul lider, iar decizia unei posibile alianțe să se ia după primul tur al alegerilor prezidențiale. Problema acestei strategii e că ratarea finalei pentru Cotroceni va avea consecințe negative asupra votului pentru Parlament, ce are loc la o săptămână după primul tur.Integral pe pagina SpotMedia. Marea amnistie fiscală e pielea ursului din pădure: Doar 4 mld. lei pot fi recuperați din ”creanțele de 180 mld. lei” anunțate de premierul Ciolacu (CursDeGuvernare)Premierul Marcel Ciolacu a confirmat marți, 27 august, că Ministerul Finanțelor pregătește un proiect de amnistie fiscală pentru firme și persoane fizice. Șeful Executivului a anunțat că sprijină acest proiect, care ar aduce la bugetul public o parte semnificativă din arieratele de 180 de miliarde de lei înregistrate de ANAF.Amnistia anunțată va aduce cel mult 4 miliarde de lei: o spun datele guvernului și Aritmetica, scrie CursDeGuvernare.Aproape 45.000 de firme au restanțe la bugetul de stat de peste 1.000 de lei. Dintre acestea, doar 1.000 au cifre de afaceri suficiente pentru a-și permite să achite datoriile.Premierul Marcel Ciolacu și ministrul Finanțelor, Marcel Boloș, speră să acopere deficitul record spre care se îndreaptă guvernul în 2024 prin recuperarea arieratelor din sectorul privat.Arieratele de 180 de miliarde nu există efectiv. 32.000 de firme datornice nici n-au au avut activitate în 2023, mai scrie CursDeGuvernare. Pozitivi la alcooltest după ce au consumat un corn cu ciocolată sau vanilie. Experimentul unor polițiști (Adevărul)O nouă postare a fostului polițist sibian Viorel Teacă a devenit virală după ce a repetat un experiment realizat anterior de un șef de poliție din Africa, în care s-a testat legătura dintre consumul unui corn cu ciocolată și alcoolemie.Viorel Teacă a realizat propriul experiment folosind un croissant cu vanilie și un alcooltest Drager, folosit și de Poliția Română. Astfel, a obținut o alcoolemie de 0,32. Videoclipul său a strâns aproape 1,5 milioane de vizualizări, declanșând numeroase reacții online.În timp ce unii au pus la îndoială autenticitatea experimentului, alții au folosit ocazia pentru a critica legislația și sistemul, sugerând că oameni nevinovați ar putea rămâne fără permis din cauza unor situații similare.Continuarea în Adevărul.

Ubica se u sudnici grohotom smejao dok smo gledali snimak gaženja moje kćerke. Vladan Krsmanović prvostepeno je osuđen na 8 godina zatvora otvorenog tipa sa slobodnim vikendima i pravom korišćenja godišnjeg odmora. Ako se bude dobro vladao može na slobodu i nakon trećine odležane kazne. Sud nije uvažio razultate Drager testa koji je pokazao da je vozač imao 97 posto drogu u krvi. Zato su uzeti u obzir rezultati urina i krvi na trakice koji su nepouzdani. Uzorci krvi su bez objašnjenja poslati tek nakon mesec i po dana iz Kragujevca na VMA analizu. Policajci sa uviđaja su menjali iskaz i svedočili suprotno zapisniku sa mesta nesreće. Zbog toga nije dobio maksimalnih 12 godina zatvora. Broj stradale dece u saobraćaju je dokaz koliko je sistem bezbednosti zakazao. U Srbiji je u 2023. godini poginulo 30 maloletnika u saobraćaju. U Srbiji je prosečna kazna za krivično delo ubistva u saobraćaju - godinu dana zatvora. Mi ne primenjujemo nijednu meru prevencije bezbednosti u saobraćaju. Mi imamo presude gde se počinioci puštaju uz nanogice ili uz minimalne kazne zatvora, većinom do dve godine. Ne kažnjava se krivica, ubice delima ne pokazuju kajanje, sistem ne pokazuje volju za odvraćanjem od takvih dela, samim tim ni od krvne osvete. Ovakvom praksom sistem gaji kriminalnu spregu policije, veštaka, upravljača puta, sudova i osiguravajućih kuća. Udruženje traži izmene Krivičnog zakona i ekstremno povećanje kazni, izmenu Zakona o bezbednosti saobraćaja u kom će se primenjivati koncept urbane mobilnosti i promenu Zakona o prekršajima koji će omogućiti video snimke građana kao dokaz za policiju i sud.

Episode 566: Today I chat with veterinarian-turned artist, Drager Meurtant in the Netherlands. Drager is a sculptor, collagist, a painter & a poet.

If you're here, I know you want to sell more. And whether you are an entrepreneur or sales professional, you care about growing your client base and the brand and reputation you're building in your space.  Today I'm going to introduce you to someone who has recently become a great friend of mine and someone I have tons of respect for in the business space. Mark Drager was introduced to me a while back by our mutual friend Bo Hawkins, and I was honored to go on his show “How to Sell More”.  In getting to know him, Mark has this concept he calls #CoreBrandIdentity that I thought was brilliant and can be applied to help you amplify your brand and sales whether you're in corporate or an entrepreneur.  Mark Drager is the Founder and CEO of SalesLoop, which has won 32 industry awards and produced $14 million in content. He's also a father of four who has had offbeat adventures including having a Boeing 737-800 for the day (twice!), a heated encounter with a billionaire, and even shedding 70 lbs in his late 30s.   Show Notes: [4:13] - Mark shares the reason behind jumping into entrepreneurship. [6:50] - When his daughter was born, Mark was a young risk-taker and quit his job. [8:14] - Mark describes the successes in a short time, including 2 million dollars in revenue. [9:52] - When he started, he wasn't considered an entrepreneur. He was called a small business owner and the stakes were really high. [11:08] - When Mark realized the mindset shift he needed to make, sales became easier. [12:12] - In the beginning, he felt that he was not a good people manager. Now he knows how important it is. [14:56] - When it comes to enneagrams, Mark is surprisingly the least likely to be an entrepreneur. [16:30] - When you strip down what you are for everyone else, you should be left with who you really are. [18:25] - Aren't sales and marketing overwhelming? [20:45] - We need to show up a certain way to earn the right to network in a beneficial way. [22:53] - What works for one client might not work for another. Mark couldn't figure this out until he noticed a particular pattern. [25:57] - The more lead generation you do, the more dud calls you're going to get. The goal is to find the diamond in the rough. [28:26] - There are three different types of business owners. Everyone has their Core Brand Identity. [30:03] - We have to start with what comes truly to us first.

On today's podcast, our guest is Mark Drager. He played a pivotal role in shaping the brand personality of Dark Work. However, this episode goes beyond just branding. It delves into the human element and the journey of discovering how to do more of what you love. Mark discusses how to elevate your vibe to achieve success in business and personal life, whether you're an entrepreneur or an employee. With a track record of working on 3,000 projects for 300 different companies and generating millions of dollars in business, Mark shares his insights and the human stories behind his journey. Stick around till the end to learn more about his work and how it might benefit you. Now, let's dive into the episode. [1:50] Why should I listen to you?  Well, I don't believe I have the ego to dictate that you should. I think none of us are inherently entitled to attention. Instead, I'd be curious to know more about you. Why are you here? What brings you to Canada? Why are we both at Tim Hortons, engaging in the classic Canadian standoff of 'after you' and 'no, after you,' exchanging apologies? It's not about what you should know about me; it's about discovering who you are, understanding your challenges, and identifying where you might need assistance. As a marketer, my goal is to tailor my response to be the person you need. [4:00] Why should somebody listen to an individual like you in that situation? I began my journey in the digital marketing world at the age of 23. At that time, I had just become a father, and despite the challenges, I decided to quit my $ 40,000-a-year job to start my agency. Fast forward to today, I have nearly two decades of experience in this field. I've led my agency through numerous recessions, gradually growing it into a multimillion-dollar business. We've completed over 3000 projects for more than 300 different companies spanning 29 industries, resulting in around $14 million worth of creative work. My journey is a testament to the expertise and insights I can offer.  [6:35] How did your journey unfold to bring you to your current position and achievements? I found myself at a crossroads when choosing my career path. Initially, I had dreams of becoming an architect and following in the footsteps of my family, who were all builders. The idea of designing and creating structures fascinated me. But then, as I was about to apply to colleges and universities, I hit a roadblock. I struggled with chemistry, and for the first time, things weren't coming easily to me. That fear of not excelling in subjects like chemistry made me reconsider my path to becoming an engineer. In a moment of uncertainty, I made a drastic decision. I chose to attend film school instead, believing it would be an easier route to take. I essentially ran away from the challenge I perceived in the sciences and opted for what seemed like a simpler path in filmmaking. This choice defined my journey and ultimately led me to where I am today. [13:05] What makes you stand out and dive into this task when others might have walked away due to not matching their background or skills? In high school, my pursuit of excellence led me initially toward architecture and engineering. I wanted to be extraordinary at something, but the daunting prospect of a 10-year journey to establish myself in this field filled me with fear. I questioned my choice and looked for a different path. That path unexpectedly led me to a sales job, which, at first, seemed unrelated to my film school background. For nine months, I felt like I wasn't using my skills and that life was passing me by. This realization drove me to make a change, and I joined a franchise. In the franchise role, I discovered my passion for connecting the dots and finding creative solutions despite limited resources. Without a team, budget, or even proper equipment, I had to learn how to deliver what was needed. The fear of presenting something entirely wrong to clients motivated me to develop a meticulous onboarding process to understand their vision accurately. This process turned out to be a game-changer when I eventually started my own company. It enabled me to extract clients' expectations effectively, leading to our company's growth into a million-dollar business. Over time, I perfected the art of understanding people's true needs and desires, a skill that has been instrumental in my journey, working on thousands of projects for hundreds of clients. [17:15] Could you explain how your company has evolved over the past six months and share what you're currently focused on, along with the reasons behind this transition? When the pandemic hit, I faced a pivotal moment in my agency's journey. We had 24 full-time staff and $2 million in annual revenue, but we lost a staggering 70% of our income in March 2020. This crisis forced me to ask hard questions and led to a significant shift in our direction. As the leader of an agency and someone guiding entrepreneurs in service-based businesses, I felt the pressure of determining the right strategies in a world with endless possibilities. It was overwhelming, and I didn't realize how burnt out I was becoming. However, the pandemic also permitted me to make the changes I knew were necessary. We streamlined our services and let go of some team members. It was during this break that I reflected on what I truly loved and what we excelled at. I realized that working with entrepreneurs and helping them navigate the complex world of messaging and strategy was my passion. We rebranded as Sales Loop, a refined agency exclusively serving B2B service-based businesses in the seven to eight-figure range. The key lesson I learned is that business can be fun and rewarding when you're aligned with your passion and focus on what you do best. It's about finding your sweet spot and making a positive impact on clients who truly value your expertise. [21:55] How would you guide someone who's searching for their calling but hasn't stumbled upon it like you did with your business? Life's journey resembles a maze of choices, each door leading to a unique outcome. In hindsight, we can connect the dots, but peering into the future, uncertainty reigns, tempting us to control every step. I've learned that life's purpose can emerge serendipitously. Embracing randomness, we explore diverse paths without fixating on predefined goals. My journey shifted from aspiring architect to film school, then to sales, franchising, and eventually founding an agency. These varied experiences, seen through a retrospective lens, define who I am today. It's vital to recognize our innate gifts, those things that feel natural, and understand their value. Mastery in one field often opens doors we never imagined. Arnold Schwarzenegger's transition from bodybuilding to acting and politics, or Michael Jordan's basketball prowess, exemplifies how excellence in one area sparks unexpected opportunities. Identify your passions, hone your skills, and welcome life's surprises, as extraordinary paths often emerge when we relinquish rigid control. [28:00] How do you encourage individuals to explore beyond their comfort zones and realize their potential in areas they haven't tried yet? Certainly, the shift in how I was perceived highlights a crucial point. When considering a departure from my agency business due to challenges, I contemplated a full-time podcasting career or starting a publication. Podcasting and public speaking were my passions. However, something intriguing happened when I introduced myself as a podcast host or event emcee within entrepreneurial circles. Strangely, my credibility seemed to plummet. People appeared disinterested, and I felt like I didn't belong. However, as soon as I reverted to presenting myself as an entrepreneur passionate about marketing, the dynamics changed. Suddenly, the same individuals who previously disregarded my podcasting role acknowledged my accomplishments in building a multimillion-dollar business, leading teams, and managing numerous projects. This shift wasn't about altering my identity; it was about recognizing that our perceived value can change based on how we present ourselves and the context in which we do so. While I remained the same person with the same skills and experiences, acknowledging my entrepreneurial achievements earned me newfound respect. This experience reinforces the idea that our path to success can involve unexpected detours and require us to embrace our unique strengths and journeys. [31:50-31:55] What's your approach to tailoring your advice and value proposition when working with individuals like Tony Robbins versus someone who might be struggling with their business and needs significant help? To earn trust and preference over competitors, you must reach more people who might not even know you exist. These challenges persist regardless of your business's size, from startups to global giants. In crafting sales, written, and social messages, your goal is to pique interest and drive sales. Unfortunately, these messages often become confusing or generic, leaving even your best prospects puzzled about your value proposition. Being equal to your competition won't cut it. You need a compelling reason for customers to choose you, not leaving it to chance. Many businesses overlook the entire customer buying journey, focusing only on message effectiveness. They forget about what happens before and after customers engage with their brand. Lastly, brands frequently fail to showcase the remarkable qualities of their team members. Spotlighting individual expertise and dedication can significantly boost trust and customer connections. [47:30] What promise did God make to the world when he created you?  It would be that my energy and personality are the  defining traits that I consistently bring into any room. I'm naturally inquisitive, exuberant, and outgoing, and it seems to resonate well with people. So, rather than downplay it, I should confidently acknowledge and own these traits as part of who I am. Key Quotes [26:00-26:05] The challenge lies in either not recognizing what we are truly gifted at because it comes so naturally to us. [27:20-27:24] The more you choose and walk in a pathway, the more you find out what that pathway is about.  How to connect with Mark Drager  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markdrager Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/markdragercom/  LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/markdrager

In this episode of the Business Growth Hacks podcast, Andrew discusses a range of valuable insights and experiences with Mark Drager. Mark shares how he learned that perception is truth, and how his black-and-white approach caused arguments with clients. They also discuss ways to be competitive in a tight job market, such as creating recruitment videos and improving onboarding. Mark shares how he recognized the various reasons why businesses needed video services, leading to their success in generating $1 million in revenue through trial and error.  The episode also covers expanding the business from video production to marketing and advertising and the importance of operations help. Finally, they discuss tips for conducting a successful workshop, including understanding the audience and structuring the presentation accordingly. KEY POINTS: Andrew has not been in the studio for the last few weeks, but has been busy doing a lot of things.The hardest lesson Mark has had to learn is that perception is truth. They used to have a black and white approach to doing things and would only go all-in or not do it at all, which caused arguments with clients.Discussing a former business partner that had a similar mindset, which caused friction between them and they didn't approach things with caution.Having talent and the company's interests at heart are important but so are people's feelings.Ways to be competitive in a tight job market, including creating recruitment videos, training videos, and improving onboarding to reduce turnover and save money for the business.How to recognize the various reasons why businesses needed video services, leading to their success in generating $1 million in revenue through trial and error.Expanding the business from video production to marketing and advertising, working with big clients like the NBA and the Toronto Raptors and creating multiple video assets for different platforms.Admits that their greatest strengths in the beginning, such as being able to overcome challenges with small budgets, became their weaknesses as they grew, leading to a lack of systems and operations to handle the complexity of the business.Reflecting on the pain and struggle of trying to figure out how to fix their mistakes and wishes they had brought in operations help earlier.A workshop for an association of auctioneers is to be conducted for four hours, and it's about marketing for their own individual businesses.To avoid contradiction with other speakers, one should look at the agenda and who is going to come before you.You need to have a clear understanding of the point you're trying to prove throughout your entire thing, like in a court of law.Before the workshop, one needs to know the audience, what they understand about the topic, and shift the presentation's flow accordingly.A four-hour workshop can feel like forever, but a keynote of 30-45 minutes, followed by 20-30 minutes of workshopping, is ideal.
