Podcasts about Efficiency

In this episode, I share how putting everything on your calendar—even the smallest tasks—can transform your productivity and peace of mind. I talk about my own journey with calendar blocking, why it's so effective, and how it helps reduce decision fatigue and overwhelm. You'll hear practical tips for scheduling everything from work projects and family time to errands and rest, plus why building in buffer time is essential. I also discuss how this habit gives you the freedom to say yes to what matters and no to what doesn't, and how it helps you spot patterns where you need more support or boundaries. If you're new to calendar blocking, I encourage you to try it for just one day and see the difference.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode David Boyd, Six Sigma Black Belt, emphasizes that defined processes and systems are essential for shop efficiency and growth. Every task follows a process, whether recognized or not, and “rapid toggling” (doing the same job differently each day) leads to chaos. Key Insights: Define Processes: Ask “Why do you do it that way?” to uncover gaps and create consistency. Use DMAIC: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control, establish “normal” and fix what's “abnormal.” Apply Lean Thinking: Reduce wasted motion and idle time (e.g., proper tool placement, faster approvals). Link KPIs to Action: Observe workflows directly (“management by walking around”), not just reports. Commit to Continuous Improvement: It's a loop, not a one-time fix. For MSOs: Scaling requires standardized systems and local accountability. The payoff: higher efficiency, stronger customer experience, productive technicians, fewer mistakes, and sustainable growth.

In this tactical episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady opens the first part of a new series on expired listings and how to leverage the non-distressed auction process as a point of difference in today's slowing market. With inventory climbing and more properties failing to sell, expireds are once again one of the best lead sources for agents looking to generate new business.Ben shares the scripts, mindset, and strategies he's using to help agents break through the noise. Instead of chasing sellers with the same tired pitch, he explains how to position auction as a fresh solution—and why a low-barrier Zoom call can be the fastest, most efficient way to secure more appointments.You'll also learn how to view rejection as validation, the importance of clarifying data, and why leaving voicemails is not just about the seller—it's about sharpening your own delivery. This is step one in a multi-part training that will also cover text messaging, video follow-ups, and advanced sequencing to convert more expireds into signed listings.⏱️ Timestamps & Key Topics[00:00:00] – Why expired listings are back in play in today's market[00:01:17] – Auction as a true point of difference for expired sellers[00:03:11] – Where new business comes from if your database is thin[00:04:16] – Why traditional expired scripts often fail without differentiation[00:05:19] – Combining calls with text and video for more cut-through[00:07:15] – Why “no” can still be a win: validating data through calls[00:10:12] – A sample script to book a low-barrier Zoom meeting[00:12:27] – Efficiency gains: Zoom vs. traditional listing appointments[00:13:28] – Preview of next episode: integrating texts and video

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ interviews Dr. Paola Ballester, CEO and Co-founder of EasyPA, about the broken state of prior authorizations in healthcare. Dr. Ballester shares her journey from pediatrician to tech founder, the real-world impact of administrative burdens on patients and clinicians, and how her AI-driven platform is streamlining processes to put patient care back at the center. Key Takeaways: The Real Cost of Prior Authorizations [2:05] – Administrative hurdles in healthcare lead to denied claims, lost revenue, and wasted time, forcing clinicians to choose between paperwork and patient care. Empathy Drives Disruption [4:35] – Dr. Ballester’s deep empathy for patients and providers inspired her to create a solution that addresses the root frustrations in the system. AI as a Force for Good [27:05] – EasyPA’s AI platform modernizes prior authorizations, making them 10x faster and giving clinicians more time with patients, not paperwork. Systemic Change is Possible [36:45] – With new technology, regulatory mandates, and a focus on patient-centered care, the healthcare system can move beyond outdated, inefficient processes. Quote of the Show [19:40]:"The assumption that physicians need to prove on a per case basis that their intent is anything other than to provide direct patient care based on evidence-based standards is wild." - Paola Ballester Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Microsoft introduced a prototype analog optical computer that uses light to perform calculations, aiming to make artificial intelligence tasks up to one hundred times more energy efficient. The system leverages micro-LEDs and camera sensors to process information in the analog domain, reducing energy consumption and overcoming digital speed limitations. The prototype matched digital computers in image classification and, through a digital twin model, reconstructed brain scan images with less data. The technology also outperformed some quantum computers in financial optimization tasks. Microsoft plans to scale the system to handle more variables as hardware advances.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

The Big Unlock · Michael Docktor, MD, Co-founder and CEO of Dock Health In this episode, Dr. Michael Docktor, Co-founder and CEO at Dock Health, shares his journey from being a pediatric gastroenterologist at Boston Children's Hospital to building a healthcare technology company. Inspired by his sister's medical experiences and his family's design background, Dr. Doctor combined medicine, design, and technology to address inefficiencies in operational workflows, particularly the administrative burdens that weigh heavily on providers and staff. Dr. Docktor explains how Dock Health was created to serve as a productivity platform for healthcare, filling the gap between electronic health records (EHRs) and the countless administrative tasks not supported by them. By digitizing and streamlining processes like referrals, patient intake, and care coordination—often still managed through faxes, emails, and spreadsheets—Dock Health aims to reduce redundancy, improve visibility, and enhance the overall user experience for healthcare organizations of all sizes. The conversation also focuses on the role of AI and automation in transforming healthcare operations. Dr. Docktor highlights Dock Health's “AI‑first” approach, incorporating generative AI and agentic models to automate routine tasks while keeping humans in the loop for oversight. He envisions a near future where administrative inefficiencies are largely eliminated, giving clinicians more time with patients. Dr. Docktor also describes AI as the “big unlock” that could massively reduce the trillions wasted annually in healthcare administration, making care more efficient, accessible, and patient‑centered. Take a listen.

When Craig Foster talks about artificial intelligence, he begins with scale. Pax8, the enterprise marketplace where he serves as CFO, connects vendors like Microsoft and CrowdStrike with 43,000 managed service providers. Those MSPs, he tells us, serve between 700,000 and 800,000 small and midsize businesses worldwide.Against that backdrop, Foster describes how AI is reshaping both internal operations and external opportunities. Inside Pax8, teams are experimenting across functions—from customer support to accounting—to automate what was once manual. The company, he tells us, has set a target “to do 20% more with 20% less,” relying on AI tools that are already available. Efficiency gains are not hypothetical; they are part of the current planning cycle.Externally, Foster sees what he calls “agentic marketplaces” emerging—ecosystems where AI modules act as labor components. Vendors are already building such agents, and Pax8 is designing its own. “We're a marketplace,” he tells us, “so we need to incorporate those different… AI components and enable our downstream clients for efficiency.” He believes this wave, unlike earlier technology cycles, is reaching SMBs with unusual speed.The finance leader is also watching economics evolve in real time. Data aggregated across Pax8's network shows strong interest, but pricing remains unsettled. Foster compares today's uncertainty to the early days of API marketplaces, when usage-based models became standard. The question now, he tells us, is how to split value between provider and customer—whether by consumption, per interaction, or shared outcomes. “That's probably the biggest challenge in industry right now,” Foster says.

In this episode, I'm sharing my favorite productivity tip: the 30-minute catch all block. As a mom and business owner, I know how overwhelming it can be to juggle constant inputs and endless micro-tasks. That's why I schedule one or two dedicated 30-minute blocks each day—midday and/or at the end of the day—to batch tasks like replying to emails, returning messages, and handling admin work. This simple shift has helped me reduce task switching, clear mental clutter, and protect my focus time for deep work. I use my digital calendar to make these blocks non-negotiable, so I can stay in control and be less reactive throughout the day. If you're looking for more clarity, calm, and productivity, try adding a catch all block to your routine. Plus, if you haven't already, check out my free training on the habits and routines that help me balance business and motherhood here. 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.
