Orchestrating the Nomad Century: Quotas, New Cities, and the Food Production Revolution. Gaia Vince encourages a proactive vision for managing massive climate-driven migration, involving facing expected heat, enlarging northern cities, and building entirely new ones. Vince provides an optimistic example of a managed migration where a farmer in Gujarat, India, applies for migration and is assigned to Aberdeen, Scotland. She suggests establishing a new United Nations agency with "real teeth" to organize migration among host and origin nations, allocating people via a quota system to specific jobs and areas. To mitigate hostility, migrants would commit to taking jobs in high-need industries for their first few years. A major challenge is food supply, requiring a complete overhaul of global food production, necessitating a shift toward a plant-based diet, as mass meat production is extremely inefficient. Alternative food sources like plant-based meats, insects, and vertical farming in cities are essential. Vince emphasizes the enormous potential for biodiversity restoration if damaged natural landscapes are left alone.

Guest: Tom Dee Guest Bio: Tom began his sales management career over eight years ago, and he is passionate about turning underperforming teams into high-performing, revenue-generating ones. Tom loves using tools like AI-driven sales insights to stay sharp and ahead of the game. His approach to leadership is all about mentorship, making smart decisions, and keeping the focus on the customer, building relationships that last. Key Points: Career Journey Started in sales by accident. Studied TV and radio production at the University of Dayton, but couldn't find work in that field. While waiting tables, he met the president of a copier company who was impressed by his "sales pitch" and hired him. Learned cold calling and sales fundamentals in copier sales. Connected through the Chamber of Commerce to Ryden, where he started as a sales account representative. After two successful years, he was promoted to sales manager despite having no prior management experience. His boss recognized his leadership potential and sales acumen. Has been with Ryden for nine years, discovering his true calling in leadership, mentorship, and sales management. Music and Sales Tom is also a musician and band singer. Believes music and sales share core similarities: both require creativity, persistence, and appreciation of the process, not just the outcome. Says the best salespeople, like musicians, hone their craft over time — success isn't innate; it's developed through discipline and practice. Comparing recording music ("you don't see how many takes it took") to the sales process, the journey matters as much as the final result. Sales Philosophy Rejects the myth of the "born salesperson." Emphasizes that sales success comes from process, practice, and consistency, not innate talent. Says the best reps "get out what they put in". Hard work and repetition pay off. Values creativity, resilience, and self-belief in sales performance. Leadership & Coaching Approach Focuses on individualized coaching to help each rep become "the best version of themselves." Builds on strengths and raises the floor on weaknesses, progress can mean moving from a D to a B, not perfection. Believes in incremental improvement - small, consistent gains lead to big results. Encourages trust-based coaching by explaining the "why" behind feedback. Promotes two team types: · Business Development Reps: Need direction, creativity, and fresh energy. · Account Reps: Need structure, process optimization, and focus on managing existing clients. Overcoming Sales Call Fear Recognizes fear of cold calling as common, "there's no magic wand." The only real solution is repetition and desensitization: pick up the phone, make calls, and learn from experience. Sales managers often act like psychologists, helping reps shift their mindset from "I'm bothering people" to "I'm helping people." Acknowledges that sales isn't for everyone, and that's okay. The Power of Process Process brings structure and rhythm to an unpredictable job. Encourages reps to block time and eliminate distractions during call sessions. Teaches that routine builds confidence and consistency, helping overcome discomfort. Note the moment of breakthrough when reps see results from their effort; that's when confidence clicks. Use of Scripts Provides scripts to new reps, especially since Ryden is in the print industry with its own terminology. Scripts help reps learn the "language" of their customers. Encourages reps to act as if, use scripts as training wheels until they internalize the message and make it their own. "Fake it till you make it… But eventually, you have to make it." Management Philosophy Believes in meeting people where they are, not forcing everyone into one mold. Success comes from helping each rep develop in their own authentic way. Leadership is about guidance, empathy, and helping others grow, not control.

  Startups from Funding to Community w/ Daniela Santagelo of Freeway - AZ TRT S06 EP15 (277) 8-17-2025       What We Learned This Week: Freeway - Helping Startups - Talent • Capital • Community Talent Retention & Reinvestment are key to building a Flywheel Phoenix Tech Ecosystem is growing, but not yet mature Always need more VC Funding + Deal Flow Government Partnership as enabler for Tech     Guest: Daniela Santagelo https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielaalpert/ I'm a founder, startup ecosystem builder, and civic innovation partner working at the intersection of tech, talent, and community. Through my work with Freeway Phx, I help cities, startups, and global partners co-create thriving innovation ecosystems, starting in Arizona and building bridges worldwide. I believe that opportunity doesn't just happen. It's designed. That's why I focus on activating communities, cultivating tech talent, and building connective infrastructure that turns vision into velocity. My journey spans founding multiple companies including scaling a venture-backed startup to $33M in funding and helping grow it to a $100M business. I've also spent 15 years in the Moving & Relocation industry, which gave me a unique lens on talent migration patterns and the infrastructure needed to build resilient, people-first startup communities. Like many founders, I've experienced both the highs of scaling and the lows of setback. That reinvention shaped my sharper mission: helping founders grow and give back. ⚡️ I lead Tech Talent Summits that connect employers, educators, and jobseekers

Tricia Rose Burt had done everything right, according to the way she was raised.  She went to a “good school,” had a “good job” and all seemed to be going great on the surface.  But inside, she was miserable and decided to make a change.  She left her career in public relations, took classes at art school, and began to explore her own creativity in a way that, as she describes it, “filled her cup.”  She's never been happier, and in this Blue Sky conversation, she'll explain how listeners might want choose to tap into their “inner artist” as well.    Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Tricia Rose Burt  This chapter introduces Tricia Rose Burt, highlighting her journey from a conventional upbringing to a fulfilling creative career. It sets the stage for her story of transformation and how she helps others find their own path.  02:22 Overcoming Prescribed Paths  Tricia discusses her upbringing in Tampa, Florida, where there was a ‘right way' to do things, leading her to feel miserable despite doing everything ‘correctly.'   05:04 The Art School Transformation  Tricia shares how she transitioned from a career in public relations, which she disliked, to art school. A career counselor's advice and an initial art class led to a complete career and life change, reigniting a childhood spark for creativity.  08:05 Focusing on Process, Not Outcomes Tricia explains her current philosophy of focusing on the creative process rather than the outcome, a challenge for someone raised in an ‘overachieving household.'   12:36 No Time to Be Timid: Podcast  Tricia discusses her podcast, ‘No Time to Be Timid,' and its message about embracing courage at any age. She emphasizes the pain of an uncreative life and encourages listeners to overcome obstacles to pursue their passions.  16:47 Integrating Creativity and Life  Tricia advises listeners to integrate creativity into their daily lives rather than making drastic changes, sharing her own ‘dramatic' pivot to Ireland. She highlights the importance of a low overhead and finding joy in the creative process, contrasting it with exhausting unfulfilling work.  23:01 The Riskiest Thing: Playing It Safe  Tricia introduces her ‘No Time to Be Timid' manifesto, starting with ‘The riskiest thing you can do is play it safe.'   25:54 Non-Linear Paths and Creativity's Value  Tricia discusses the non-linear nature of life paths and how it allows for following curiosity, a contrast to her father's single career. She stresses that creativity is not frivolous, but essential for problem-solving and leading a fulfilling life, challenging the societal undervaluation of creative pursuits.  28:45 Constraints as Opportunities  Tricia elaborates on ‘constraints are opportunities,' sharing how financial limitations in Ireland led her to create art from unconventional materials like tea bags. She provides examples of how constraints, whether financial or time-based, can spark creativity and innovation.  35:03 Embracing Failure for Growth  Tricia discusses ‘failure is your friend,' explaining that setbacks offer valuable learning experiences and redirect paths. She shares a friend's perspective that ‘no' can be as good as ‘yes' and emphasizes asking ‘what happens if I do this?' in the creative process.  38:45 Courage in Community  Tricia highlights the importance of ‘courage in community,' noting that fellow pilgrims provide support and understanding for creative individuals.   41:50 Make Art Now: The Power of Story  Tricia passionately advocates for ‘make art now,' asserting that art and stories are vital for human connection, empathy, and overcoming demonization. She emphasizes that creativity isn't limited to ‘big A' art but encompasses everyday acts of making and connecting.
