PREVIEW China's Technocratic Leadership: Efficiency vs. Brittle Decision-Making. John Kitch discusses Dan Wong'sbook Breakneck, which views Chinese leaders as engineers skilled at rapidly executing plans and directing vast resources, which has helped China rise up the value chain. However, Wong argues, and Kitch agrees, that using a purely technocratic mindset to handle complex human and political problems is a major downside. This approach results in leadership that lacks imagination and is brittle and inflexible in its decision-making. Guest: John Kitch.

In this conversation, Dr. Katharina Reinecke explores the intersection of technology and culture, discussing how cultural assumptions shape the design and functionality of technology. She delves into the implications of self-driving cars, the importance of understanding diverse user experiences, and the challenges posed by a predominantly Western perspective in technology development. The discussion highlights the need for greater cultural sensitivity in technology design and the potential consequences of ignoring these differences.Takeaways Technology is not culturally neutral; it reflects the values of its creators. Self-driving cars are based on American commuting assumptions. Cultural differences significantly impact user experience and technology design. Efficiency in technology can undermine social interactions and relationships. WEIRD populations dominate technology research, leading to biased outcomes. Universal design principles often fail when applied globally. Stack Exchange exemplifies individualistic design, contrasting with collectivist values. AI systems must be designed with cultural sensitivity to avoid reinforcing biases.Chapters 00:00 Understanding Digital Culture Shock 03:53 The Challenges of Autonomous Vehicles 06:21 Cultural Assumptions in Technology 08:37 The Impact of AI and Data Bias 10:32 Efficiency vs. Social Interaction in Design 12:14 The Concept of 'Weird' Populations 14:24 Cultural Values in Digital Platforms 21:53 The Simplicity of Design and Its Cultural Impact 22:51 Efficiency vs. Community: The Stack Exchange Debate 25:41 Adapting Global Platforms to Local Norms 31:52 The Implications of AI and Digital Infrastructure 34:34 Recognizing Cultural Bias in Technology Design 37:42 Technology as CultureFollow Katharina on Twitter, LinkedIn, Bluesky, and find her new book here.You can find Lab in the Wild on Twitter and BlueskySubscribe to Breaking Math wherever you get your podcasts.Follow Breaking Math on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website, YouTube, TikTokFollow Autumn on Twitter, BlueSky, and InstagramBecome a guest hereemail: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

How do meditation, breathwork, and tapping influence the brain—and what can they teach us about healing, connection, and resilience? In this episode, I speak with four thought leaders exploring the neuroscience and practice of inner calm: Niraj Naik, creator of SOMA Breath, on breathwork rooted in Pranayama and how rhythmic breathing and brief hypoxia strengthen mitochondria and balance energy. Nick Ortner, founder of The Tapping Solution, on how Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) calms the amygdala, lowers cortisol, and helps rewire stress and cravings at the brain level. Dr. Lisa Miller, author of The Awakened Brain, on how meditation shifts us from rumination to guidance, activating the brain's natural capacity for oneness and enduring alpha waves associated with peace and spiritual connection. Dr. Tony Nader, neuroscientist and leader of the Transcendental Meditation movement, on TM's measurable effects on blood pressure, brain coherence, and even collective consciousness. From ancient practices to modern neuroscience, this episode explores how tuning the mind and body can transform stress into clarity—and reconnect us to our shared field of consciousness.

Running technique coach Paul Mackinnon (The Balanced Runner) unpacks why most runners "force outcomes" (cadence, foot strike, knee drive) instead of changing the inputs that actually reshape movement. Paul explains his top-down approach—starting at the arms and torso to influence what happens below—so athletes can reduce ground contact time, improve rhythm, and shift along the continuum from rehab to performance. Across an engaging conversation in episode 374 of The Physical Performance Show, with hosts Brad Beer and Huw Darnell, Paul challenges the idea that "technique doesn't matter," arguing that how you move determines how you load. He distinguishes economy from efficiency, shows why arm swing and thoracic control set the timing for the legs, and shares practical cues to build self-awareness, symmetry, and lift—without derailing training volume. Clinicians and athletes alike will gain a clearer roadmap for translating S&C work to the road, coaching more effectively, and making durable technique change.

Starting with tech rollouts, Trimble bets big on AI to fix trucking's workflow bottlenecks. It debuted its new cloud-native, modular, AI-powered Transportation Management System (TMS), designed as a single intelligence center for enterprise operations. New AI agents, such as the Order Intake Agent, automate administrative tasks like data extraction from emails and PDFs, potentially eliminating manual review for up to 90% of standard orders. Efficiency is also the core strategy behind major network redesigns at FedEx, who is focused on prioritizing high-quality B2B business and sectors like high-tech freight and healthcare logistics, while using generative AI to predict classification codes to simplify cross-border trade execution. In contrast, global maritime operator CMA CGM profit collapses on ocean ‘slowdown'. reported a staggering 72.6% decline in net income, yet maintained volume growth (up 2.3%) due to its agility in redeploying assets to counter Red Sea disruptions and volatility. On the regulatory and legal front, a Delaware bankruptcy court approved Judge Oks Yellow Corp.'s final liquidation plan, clearing the path to distribute up to $700 million to creditors, crucially classifying employee claims for PTO and sick time as priority for payment. Meanwhile, truck safety advocates strongly oppose the FMCSA's proposed pilot program, detailed in Safety group opposes extending truckers' workday, which would allow truck drivers to pause their 14-hour on-duty window for up to three hours, arguing the agency should instead study detention time directly. Managing constant risk is essential, as evidenced by the U.S.-flag barge Brooklyn Bridge running aground in the Bahamas after a tow wire failed and subsequently being looted, highlighting the vulnerability of routine operations to external factors. The defining trait of a successful logistics operation today is agility built on automation; technology is no longer a differentiator but a necessary cost for maintaining margins and compliance.

Darren Richman, CEO of Millrose Properties, Inc. (NYSE: MRP), joined the REIT Report podcast to discuss the land banking business model and how the REIT works with major home builders to improve capital efficiency.Millrose was spun off from home builder Lennar Corp. in February, allowing Lennar to focus on the consumer-facing aspect of its business by transferring the land development side to Millrose. The REIT works with Lennar and 11 other homebuilders.“The more modern form of land banking is about capital efficiency, where a builder is looking to clarify their own business model, looking to separate the opco (operating company) from the propco (property company),” he said.

Our guest, Kathryn Judge from Columbia Law School, explores how trust quietly sustains the financial system and why it becomes most visible when things start to break. She explains that in finance, trust means acting despite incomplete information. Depositors often have little insight into the health of their bank, yet they continue to keep money there, relying on signals, habits, and confidence. When that confidence falters, trust does not fade slowly. It snaps, as seen in the rapid bank runs of 2023. Judge points out that technology accelerates these reactions, while strong relationships, particularly in community banking, can still hold panic at bay. We examine how post-2008 rules improved resilience but also created expectations that governments will always intervene. That expectation has its own dangers. If markets believe support is guaranteed, discipline erodes, and when the government reaches its limits, panic can spread even faster. Kathryn stresses that credible transparency paired with the ability to act remains essential. She highlights the successful stress tests after the financial crisis as a rare example where disclosure built trust instead of shaking it. Balance sheet strength, liquidity, and established human relationships continue to be powerful stabilizers. We discuss the current political environment and the pressures facing central banks. The Federal Reserve's independence, she notes, has always been fragile, designed to avoid short-term political influence over monetary policy. Once doubt about that independence grows, long-term inflation expectations and sovereign credibility can shift, which households eventually feel in the form of higher prices, interest rates, and economic uncertainty. Kate Judge also touches on her work on the middleman economy, describing how long supply chains and platform-based systems create efficiency but reduce direct connection. Efficiency comes with fragility, and the loss of human connection makes trust harder to form and easier to lose. Toward the end of the conversation, we move to Europe and the debate over Eurobonds. She explains that shared debt across EU member states could deepen trust and strengthen the financial system if supported by genuine political commitment. At the same time, linking national financial destinies increases scrutiny and potential friction. Trust and vulnerability rise together, and success would depend on a shared willingness to stand together in good times and in crisis. Her core message is straightforward: trust makes finance work until the moment it breaks, and rebuilding it is far harder than maintaining it. Real stability comes from credible commitments, transparency paired with action, and deeper human and institutional relationships.  

Key Takeaways from This Week's DiscussionETFs vs. Mutual Funds — Tax Efficiency MattersMutual funds often create higher annual taxes in taxable accounts. ETFs and index funds are more tax-efficient because of how they handle capital gains—saving investors up to 1% a year. Keep mutual funds inside IRAs to avoid unnecessary taxes.Equal-Weighted vs. Cap-Weighted PortfoliosThe Invesco Equal Weighted S&P 500 (RSP) holds the same 500 companies as the standard index but gives each stock equal weight. This creates different exposure and more turnover, yet the ETF version reduces the tax drag—a key advantage for long-term investors.Small-Cap Value Funds — Choosing the Right FitVBR (Vanguard) performs best when large-cap growth leads, while AVUV and DFSV outperform when smaller value companies rise. The lesson: size and style matter in long-term returns.The Power of Rebalancing & “Shannon's Demon”Mentioned by Bill Yount from the Catching Up to FI podcast,  Shannon's Demon illustrates how periodic rebalancing can turn volatility into profit. By selling high and buying low, you can enhance long-term performance while keeping risk in check.Morningstar Ratings — Don't Chase the StarsStar ratings mostly reflect recent trends, not future potential. Focus instead on the underlying asset class and decades of evidence, not last year's winners.Small-Cap Value Slump — Patience Pays OffSmall-cap value has struggled this year, but historically it offers one of the best long-term premiums. Remember: asset class selection drives up to 99% of overall portfolio performance.Risk Parity Portfolios — Balancing Risk the Smart WayPaul compared traditional diversification to risk parity, which balances exposure across stocks, bonds, and commodities. He prefers government bonds over commodities since bonds generate income and often rise when stocks fall.Diversifying Within an Asset ClassInstead of going “all or nothing,” you can hold multiple ETFs—like AVUV and DFSV—for extra balance within a category. Just keep the lineup manageable for your brokerage or platform.Factor Investing — What Really Drives ReturnsThe strongest long-term drivers are size and value. Momentum and quality can help, but smaller, cheaper companies historically deliver the best rewards.Growth Funds & Ten-Year PerformanceTen-year snapshots can mislead. From 2000 to 2025, small-cap value funds far outperformed growth and the S&P 500, showing the value premium remains powerful across full market cycles.S&P 500 vs. Total Market — Nearly Identical Over TimeSince 1928, returns differ by only 0.1%. The S&P's recent edge comes mainly from a handful of mega-cap tech stocks, not fundamental differences in the indexes.Hiring an Advisor — When It's Worth ItA skilled fiduciary advisor can help manage emotions, discipline, and rebalancing. If you struggle to stay consistent, professional guidance may be worth far more than the fee.The DIY Investor Myth — Overcoming Human Biases“No one cares more about your money than you” sounds good, but behavioral biases—recency, overconfidence, and loss aversion—can derail results. Automation or a trusted advisor can protect you. For more insight, see Paul Hayes' free book Spending Your Way to Wealth, especially the appendix on 48 investor biases.Thank you again for your time, attention, and thoughtful participation. Despite the technical hiccups, your engagement made this an incredibly rewarding session!

Glenn Wiggle, Mike Hoeflich, and Mike Sperrazza dive into the real fallout of Washington's latest government shutdown—and the hypocrisy behind politicians still cashing paychecks while everyday Americans go without. From bloated regulations driving up healthcare costs to the failures of Obamacare, the hosts call out both parties for their inaction and lack of leadership. They break down how excessive government control has crippled competition, inflated costs, and hurt working Americans, arguing for a return to smaller government, personal responsibility, and common sense. Plus, a no-holds-barred discussion on welfare reform, accountability in Congress, and why the GOP must finally deliver.(00:02:15) Impact of Government Shutdown on Individuals and Politicians(00:11:58) Impact of Regulations on Healthcare Accessibility and Costs(00:14:22) Healthcare Overhaul: Promoting Competition and Efficiency(00:24:28) Effective Legislators: Leading for Progress(00:26:37) Republican Party's Lack of Initiative and Action(00:30:24) Republican Party's Urgency for Accountability and Prosecution(00:34:29) State-Level Enforcement of Welfare to Work

In this episode, I share my top five lessons for mom entrepreneurs managing a flexible schedule. I talk about how I've overcome guilt for enjoying midday freedom—reminding myself and my fellow working moms that this flexibility is a strength we've created, not a luxury. I explain how I define what “done” looks like by setting clear goals and calendar blocking, which helps me avoid overwhelm and improve my productivity. I discuss the boundaries I set to honor my off-hours, boosting both my work and family life. I also share how I reduce decision fatigue with planned routines and themed family dinners, making daily life with a business smoother. Finally, I reveal how pre-planning and batching household tasks keeps me focused as a business owner and mom. These productivity tips help me—and hopefully you—find balance, thrive in entrepreneurship, and enjoy more time with your family.  Free Resources:Join 30 Day Calendar Blocking Blueprint and finally feel in control. ​Click here to join the next round. ​Are you a business owner making $100,000+ and still wearing all the hats? ​Click here​ to learn about my upcoming 12-week Outsourcing Mastermind.Are you an aspiring or newer business owner who needs some accountability and clarity on the next steps? ​Click here​ to join my 6-month accountability group - Simplify.

The world record for fastest pit stop—a mere 1.8 seconds—was set by the McLaren F1 Team at the Qatar Grand Prix in 2023. It's an incredible feat of speed and choreography; a pit stop that fast can't happen without a team of people operating at peak human performance. But as Dan Keyworth explains, AI plays a crucial role, too. As the Director of Business Technology at McLaren Racing, Dan is responsible for helping the whole team perform at their best—and that starts with having the right tools. Whether it's the firehose of sensor data coming off a race car, video analysis of the pit crew in action, or marketing analytics for the next Grand Prix, AI helps the McLaren F1 Team make the right decisions—and make them fast.On this episode, Dan talks about the importance of getting simple answers from complex data, how they use Dropbox Dash, and why we shouldn't think of AI as labor replacement so much as laborious replacement.You can learn more about the McLaren F1 Team at mclaren.com/racing/formula-1.

What happens when innovation outpaces our moral compass?In episode 255 of At The Table, Patrick and Cody wrestle with the tension between technological innovation and human dignity in the workplace. As artificial intelligence reshapes industries, they ask whether efficiency has become more important than humanity. This episode invites leaders and consumers alike to seek a moral “true north”—one that values people over profit and connection over convenience.Topics explored in this episode: (02:57) Innovation Without a True North* Concern that the rise of AI could fundamentally displace human work.* Innovation must be guided by ethics and human-centered purpose, not just economic efficiency.(07:15) The Role of Leaders * The need for leaders to assess whether their choices serve humanity.(10:10) The Role of Consumers* Consumers voting with their wallets and resisting convenience that devalues human connection.(14:27) The Convenience Crisis* How people increasingly prioritize ease over meaning.(18:45) Dignity, Work, and the Future* The deeper value of work beyond income—as a source of dignity, growth, and relationship.This episode of At The Table with Patrick Lencioni is brought to you by The Table Group: https://www.tablegroup.com.

Campbell's Headset Defines the Win in Washington The Detroit Lions walked out of Washington with a road win and a clearer identity. The camera told the story before the box score did. John Morton sat in the booth. Silent. Dan Campbell wore readers, gripped a play sheet, and owned the microphone. He called the offense. He never stopped talking. That shift mattered. It set the tempo. It framed every decision in a game the Lions controlled when it counted. This was not business as usual. It was a structural change. It was visible on the broadcast and confirmed after the game. The Detroit Lions Podcast made the point that many missed in real time. Campbell took command of the operation, and the sideline reflected it. Efficient communication. Direct sequencing. A head coach imprinting the plan on every snap against the Washington Commanders. This Is Dan Campbell's Offense Strip away the noise. The Lions run Dan Campbell's offense. That has been true since his first season. He took the plays then. He shaped the language. He refined the approach. Ben Johnson learned under him, executed it, and added wrinkles. That history matters now that Campbell is back on the stick. Campbell said it again this week. He laid out how the system came together and how his coaches fit inside it. Morton is part of that structure. Johnson, previously, was part of that structure. The ideas, the core concepts, the way the run and pass fit, the way Detroit marries formations to its identity, all flow from the head coach. The Lions' win at Washington looked like that lineage. Direct. Physical. Decisive. The quarterback, Jared Goff, works inside that framework. Timing, trust, and calls delivered from the top. Numbers Over Narratives The numbers told the story more cleanly than the chatter. Efficiency on schedule. Situational calls that stacked. Detroit's offense kept the plan ahead of the sticks, and the plan kept the defense honest. That balance tracked with Campbell's voice on the headset. The Detroit Lions Podcast drilled into how those figures aligned with last year's profile when the attack clicked. The overlap is the point. Scheme is stable. Play calling sharpens it. It is November. These are the NFL weeks that separate real contenders. The Lions leaned into what they do and who they are. That is the lesson that travels. What's Next: Clarity, Accountability, Enemies List Early this week, Campbell addressed the offensive structure and his staff. He kept it clear and kept it in-house. No finger-pointing. No burying a colleague. The head coach owns the call sheet and the outcomes. That posture resonates in the locker room and on the sideline. The enemies list is updated because November exposes problems and pretenders. The teams that threaten Detroit are stepping into view. Washington was a test in communication and control. The next tests intensify. With Campbell calling plays, the Lions know what travels: clean mechanics, decisive sequencing, and a head coach setting the tone. That is the edge. That is the standard. That is Detroit Lions football heading into the heart of the NFL season. https://www.detroitlionspodcast.com/?p=592624 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Breaking Free from Data Normalization: A Smarter Path for Security TeamsTraditional security models were built on a simple idea: collect data, normalize it, and analyze it. But as Director of Product Marketing Cory Wallace explains in this conversation with Sean Martin, that model no longer fits the reality of modern security operations. Data now lives across systems, clouds, and lakes—making normalization an inefficient, error-prone step that slows teams down and risks critical blind spots.Rethinking How Analysts Work with DataCory describes how schema drift, inconsistent field naming, and vendor-specific query languages have turned the analyst's job into a maze of manual mapping and guesswork. Each product update or schema change introduces a chance to miss something important—something an attacker is counting on. Crogl's new patent eliminates this problem by enabling search and correlation across unnormalized data, creating a unified analytical view without forcing everything into one rigid format.From Data Chaos to Analyst EmpowermentThis shift isn't just technical—it's cultural. Instead of treating SOC analysts as passive alert closers, Crogl's model empowers them with meaningful context from the start. Alerts now come with historical data, cross-referenced fields, and prebuilt queries, giving analysts the information they need to make decisions faster and more confidently.Efficiency with IntelligenceWallace explains how this approach saves time, reduces training burdens, and cuts dependency on multiple query languages. It helps overworked teams move from reactive triage to proactive investigation. By removing unnecessary layers of data transformation, organizations can accelerate incident resolution, minimize risk, and help analysts focus on what matters most—catching what others miss.At its core, the conversation highlights how removing the barriers of data normalization can redefine what's possible in modern security operations.Watch the full interview: https://youtu.be/Kx2JEE_tYq0Learn more about CROGL: https://itspm.ag/crogl-103909Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.GUESTCory Wallace, Director of Product Marketing at CROGL | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/corywallacecrogl/RESOURCESLearn more and catch more stories from CROGL: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/croglPress Release: https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/11/05/3181815/0/en/Crogl-Granted-Patent-for-Analyzing-Non-Normalized-Data-for-Security.htmlForbes Article: https://www.forbes.com/sites/justinwarren/2025/11/05/tackling-cybersecurity-data-sprawl-without-normalizing-everything/LinkedIn Post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/activity-7391913358817517569-QaCHAre you interested in telling your story?▶︎ Full Length Brand Story: https://www.studioc60.com/content-creation#full▶︎ Spotlight Brand Story: https://www.studioc60.com/content-creation#spotlight Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

John Dittar and Felipe share how refining supply paths, removing low-quality inventory, and layering intelligence into deals leads to cleaner, smarter buying. They explain how curation powers stronger brand safety, reduces pre-fraud exposure, and replaces guesswork with predictable, high-performing inventory. This conversation moves beyond CTRs and surface metrics to show how curated deals create meaningful engagement, improved conversions, and simpler workflows for traders. Here's What You'll Learn Curation as a Service, explained: how GDB cleans, classifies, and enhances every impression in real time. DSP to SSP evolution: why GDB shifted its focus to smarter supply and what that means for buyers. Beyond CTR: how removing low-quality inventory leads to real engagement and conversion gains. Operational simplicity: how curated deals reduce manual work while improving transparency and brand safety.

The conversation highlights why 65% of contractors remain optimistic despite tighter competition, how 79% identify pipeline performance as their top challenge, and why firms with centralized PMOs submit 10+ more proposals annually. Kim and John also explore the rapid adoption of AI, where it's adding value, where it's overhyped, and how integration across BD, project management, and finance is becoming a true game changer.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Lee Rudin discuss:Aligning business with purposePreparing financially before independenceMarketing actively and creativelyLeveraging systems, technology, and people Key Takeaways:Building a law practice around shared success creates deeper fulfillment and stronger client relationships. Choosing work that serves others transforms daily effort into long-term motivation and genuine impact. Purpose becomes the foundation that sustains growth beyond profit or recognition.Launching a firm requires a clear understanding of cash flow, expenses, and delayed revenue cycles. Planning for at least 120 days without income establishes realistic expectations and stability. Financial awareness and discipline ensure resilience during the early, uncertain stages of growth.Obscurity, not competition, remains the greatest risk in professional services. Consistent visibility through digital campaigns, community engagement, and creative branding drives trust. Distinct messaging turns curiosity into recognition and recognition into opportunity.Efficiency grows when repetitive tasks are automated and skilled support is used effectively. Strategic use of offshore staff and fair compensation creates scalable, sustainable operations. Generosity, structure, and smart tools combine to amplify performance without excess cost. "You've got to give people a reason to pick you.
