In this episode of the Solar Maverick Podcast, Benoy Thanjan joins Peter Pongracz of Soliverse for a wide-ranging conversation about how the global solar market is changing. They discuss why early-stage development capital has become more difficult to secure, why investors increasingly prefer later-stage and lower-risk projects, and why solar-plus-storage is becoming the new standard in many markets. Benoy and Peter also examine the growing importance of community relationships, energy independence, repowering, solar-panel recycling, and innovation as the United States and Europe compete with China's scale and long-term energy strategy. A central theme throughout the episode is that solar technology itself is relatively simple, but developing, financing, interconnecting, and delivering projects has become increasingly complex.

3162 Achtung vor Kollegenschweinen   Ich weiß, das Wort „Kollegenschweine" ist hart. Es ist umgangssprachlich und steht hier symbolisch für Menschen, die sich bewusst unkollegial verhalten. Kennst du solche Kollegen? Sie lassen dich für sich arbeiten, drücken dir ständig neue Aufgaben aufs Auge, reden hinter deinem Rücken und beschweren sich beim Chef. Sie machen dir das Arbeitsleben schwer und nutzen deine Hilfsbereitschaft aus. Dann heißt es schnell: „Ich werde gemobbt." Natürlich tragen diejenigen Verantwortung, die dich schlecht behandeln. Aber du musst trotzdem anfangen, klare Grenzen zu setzen. Solange du immer Ja sagst, alles herunterschluckst und versuchst, es allen recht zu machen, wird sich nichts verändern. „Kannst du das noch schnell erledigen?" Eigentlich willst du Nein sagen. Trotzdem machst du es. Warum? Vielleicht hast du Angst, nicht mehr gemocht zu werden. Vielleicht befürchtest du, dass dir später niemand mehr hilft oder dass schlecht über dich gesprochen wird. Doch genau dadurch wirst du immer mehr zum Fußabtreter der Abteilung. Alle laden ihre Arbeit bei dir ab und verlassen sich darauf, dass du schon funktionieren wirst. Hör auf, dich für andere selbst aufzugeben. Wenn du ständig Aufgaben übernimmst, die gar nicht zu deinem Bereich gehören, bleibt deine eigene Arbeit liegen. Danach musst du Überstunden machen und bekommst möglicherweise sogar Ärger vom Chef, weil deine Aufgaben nicht erledigt sind. Du warst für alle da, nur nicht für dich selbst. Das führt zu Frust, Erschöpfung und dauerhaftem Stress. Du gehst ungern zur Arbeit, kommst abends völlig ausgelaugt nach Hause und handelst ständig gegen deine eigenen Bedürfnisse. Frag dich ehrlich: Wie oft helfen dir diese Kollegen wirklich? Wie oft bist nur du derjenige, der einspringt? Wie lange möchtest du dieses Spiel noch mitmachen? Natürlich müssen Kollegen zusammenarbeiten. Aber Zusammenarbeit bedeutet nicht, dass einer alles erledigt und die anderen sich darauf ausruhen. Du darfst sagen: „Nein, das gehört nicht zu meinen aktuellen Aufgaben."   „Nein, ich muss zuerst meine eigene Arbeit fertigstellen."   „Nein, dafür habe ich heute keine Kapazität." Das ist nicht unkollegial. Das ist Selbstschutz. Wichtig ist, dass du ruhig, klar und konsequent bleibst. Du musst nicht aggressiv werden. Aber du darfst deutlich zeigen: Bis hierher und keinen Schritt weiter. Nein zu sagen ist Übungssache. Wenn du jahrelang automatisch zugestimmt hast, wirst du dieses Muster nicht an einem Tag verändern. Du musst es trainieren. Ende August findet deshalb in St. Moritz ein zweieinhalbtägiges Trainingscamp statt. Dort üben wir, klare Grenzen zu setzen, sicher Nein zu sagen und ohne Angst für dich einzustehen.   Für die ersten vier Anmeldungen gibt es einen Spezialpreis. Danach wird es schrittweise teurer. Hier findest du das aktuelle Seminar: https://bit.ly/NEIN-Seminar-Podcast   Hör auf, nur für andere zu funktionieren. Steh zu dir und erschaffe dir ein starkes, freies Leben. Tschüss, bye-bye, dein Ernst. #Kollegen #Arbeitsplatz #GrenzenSetzen #NeinSagen #Mobbing #Selbstachtung #Selbstschutz #Arbeitsleben #StMoritz #podcast #ergebnisorientiert #ernstcrameri Wenn du Ernst Crameri im Video sehen willst, in unterschiedlichen Umgebungen, schaue es dir jetzt hier an https://www.youtube.com/user/ErnstCrameri Kontaktdaten von Ernst Crameri: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ErnstCrameri Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crameriernst/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ernst_crameri LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ernstcrameri/ X: https://x.com/Ernst_Crameri

David Baerwald is a famous songwriter who's worked with artists like Joni Mitchell and Sheryl Crow. But when he uncovered a family history filled with spies, music, and wartime secrets … David went from notes to novels and wrote a sweeping historical debut. The Fire Agent fictionalizes the story of Ernst Baerwald, David's real grandfather. In 1900, Ernst was recruited to become a spy. His work took him across two continents and through two world wars, and his life became an adventure involving Japanese gangsters, the fight against fascism and numerous pivotal moments in history. This week, David tells Mattea Roach about espionage in the 1900s, his love of Japan and how the novel brought his family back together. Liked this conversation?

3161 Eins nach dem anderen Eins nach dem anderen. Kennst du das? „Ich muss noch schnell dies erledigen. Ich muss noch schnell jenes machen." Gleichzeitig kommen immer neue Fragen: „Kannst du das noch übernehmen?" „Kannst du hier noch schnell helfen?" „Kannst du das auch noch erledigen?" Was entsteht daraus? Hektische Betriebsamkeit. Je hektischer du wirst, desto mehr verlierst du den Überblick. Du beginnst vieles gleichzeitig, bringst immer weniger zu Ende und irgendwann endet alles im Chaos. Im schlimmsten Fall brennst du langsam aus. Besonders Mütter und Väter leisten jeden Tag unglaublich viel. Familie, Kinder, Partnerschaft, Eltern, Schwiegereltern, Freunde, Beruf und Haushalt,  von allen Seiten kommen Erwartungen und Aufgaben. Doch wann hattest du zuletzt eine echte Auszeit? Wann hattest du einen halben Tag nur für dich? Wann konntest du einfach die Seele baumeln lassen, ohne dass sofort wieder jemand etwas von dir wollte? Viele Menschen sind dauerhaft im Stressmodus. Auch das Handy hält sie ständig in Alarmbereitschaft. Sie sind immer erreichbar, weil ja etwas Wichtiges passieren könnte. Immer erreichbar zu sein bedeutet nicht, immer verfügbar sein zu müssen. Eines deiner wichtigsten Wörter muss deshalb Nein sein. „Nein, jetzt nicht." „Nein, heute schaffe ich das nicht." „Nein, hier ist meine Grenze." Es geht nicht darum, niemandem mehr zu helfen. Es geht darum, nicht jede Verantwortung automatisch selbst zu übernehmen. Auch Kinder dürfen lernen, Verantwortung zu tragen. Nehmen Eltern alles ab, werden Kinder nicht automatisch selbstständig. Viele sagen: „Mein Kind soll es einmal besser haben als ich." Doch besser bedeutet nicht, dass einem Kind alles abgenommen wird. Selbstständigkeit ist ebenfalls ein Geschenk. Frag dich deshalb: Muss ich wirklich jede Fahrt übernehmen? Muss ich jedes Problem lösen? Muss ich immer sofort reagieren? Welchen Preis zahlst du dafür? Wenn du dauerhaft über deine Grenzen gehst, zahlst du möglicherweise mit deiner Gesundheit, deiner Lebensfreude und deiner Zeit. Dein Leben ist nicht unendlich. Viele sagen: „Ich habe keine Zeit, solange die Kinder klein sind." Später heißt es: „Jetzt muss ich mich um die Enkel kümmern." Irgendwann ist dann der Satz: „Jetzt bin ich zu alt." Dann ist es zu spät. So wird das eigene Leben immer weiter verschoben. Dein Leben findet aber jetzt statt. Prüfe genau: Was ist wirklich wichtig? Was kann warten? Was muss vielleicht gar nicht mehr von dir erledigt werden? Ende August gehen wir in St. Moritz genau diesen Fragen nach. Du lernst, klare Prioritäten zu setzen, Grenzen zu ziehen und dein Leben wieder bewusster zu gestalten. Du machst das nicht für mich. Du machst es für dich. Tschüss, bye-bye, dein Ernst. #EinsNachDemAnderen #StressReduzieren #GrenzenSetzen #NeinSagen #Selbstfürsorge #Prioritäten #Lebensfreude #podcast #ergebnisorientiert #ernstcrameri  

Diese Folge nimmt euch mit auf eine kleine Zeitreise. Wir tauchen ein ins Mittelalter – zwischen Ritter, Alltag und so manchem Mythos, der sich hartnäckig hält. Was fasziniert uns eigentlich bis heute an dieser Epoche?Zwischendurch wird's persönlich und heiter: Sören berichtet von seinem Besuch im Spielwarenladen und davon, was so ein Streifzug durch die Regale mit einem erwachsenen Menschen macht.Zum Schluss schlagen wir ernstere Töne an. Wir sprechen über das alliierte Flächenbombardement auf deutsche Städte im Zweiten Weltkrieg und über die Zivilisten, die dabei ums Leben kamen – ein schwieriges Kapitel, dem wir mit dem nötigen Ernst und ohne einfache Antworten begegnen wollen.Von verspielt bis nachdenklich – hört rein und begleitet uns durch die Jahrhunderte.

3160 Nein zu deinem Chef Sage auch deinem Chef gegenüber öfter einmal Nein. Natürlich geht es nicht darum, trotzig zu reagieren oder Aufgaben grundsätzlich abzulehnen. Es geht darum, klar zu kommunizieren, Prioritäten zu setzen und deine eigenen Grenzen zu kennen. Du hast ein bestimmtes Aufgabengebiet. Gleichzeitig wünsche ich dir, dass du in einer Firma mit einer echten Vision arbeitest. Eine Firma sollte innovativ sein, neue Dinge ausprobieren und sich weiterentwickeln. Arbeit darf Freude machen. Es sollte etwas bewegt werden und nicht jeden Tag nur das gleiche 08/15-Programm ablaufen. Schwierig wird es jedoch, wenn ständig neue Aufgaben auf deinem Tisch landen: „Könntest du das noch schnell erledigen?" „Könntest du hier noch kurz helfen?" „Könntest du das bitte vorziehen?" Gerade wenn ein Chef viele neue Ideen hat, kann ein Mitarbeiter schnell den Überblick verlieren. Du beginnst eine Aufgabe, wirst unterbrochen und sollst sofort etwas anderes erledigen. Kurz darauf kommt schon der nächste Auftrag. Am Ende fragt der Chef möglicherweise: „Warum ist die erste Aufgabe noch nicht fertig?" Genau hier musst du lernen, klar zu kommunizieren. Du kannst zum Beispiel sagen: „Ich bearbeite gerade diese Aufgabe. Soll ich sie zuerst fertigstellen oder soll die neue Aufgabe jetzt Vorrang haben?" Oder: „Gerne übernehme ich das. Welche meiner bisherigen Aufgaben darf dafür warten?" Das ist kein unhöfliches Nein. Es ist ein verantwortungsvolles Nein. Du stellst sicher, dass dein Chef die Prioritäten festlegt und dass nicht alles gleichzeitig von dir erwartet wird. Ein einfaches „Nein, mache ich nicht" wäre möglicherweise trotzig und wenig konstruktiv. Ein klares, begründetes Nein zeigt dagegen, dass du zuverlässig arbeitest und deine Aufgaben ernst nimmst. Grenzen zu setzen, bedeutet nicht, die Arbeit zu verweigern. Grenzen zu setzen bedeutet, Verantwortung für die Qualität deiner Arbeit zu übernehmen. Ich wünsche dir, dass du in einer Firma arbeitest, in der du respektiert wirst, von deinem Chef, deinen Kollegen und den Kunden. Respekt auf Augenhöhe ist eine wichtige Voraussetzung für gute Arbeit. Du solltest nicht jeden Freitag denken: „Endlich ist Wochenende." „Endlich habe ich meine Ruhe." „Hoffentlich kommt bald der nächste Urlaub." Natürlich darfst du dich auf deine Freizeit freuen. Wenn du aber jeden Arbeitstag nur noch überstehen möchtest, solltest du genau hinschauen, was nicht mehr stimmt. Am Ende wirst du auch daran gemessen, was du tatsächlich bewegt und abgeschlossen hast. Sagst du zu jeder neuen Aufgabe Ja, aber nichts mehr konzentriert fertigstellen kannst, hilft das weder dir noch dem Unternehmen. Fehlende Grenzen führen häufig zu Frust, Überforderung und dauerhaftem Stress. Vielleicht gehst du irgendwann nur noch widerwillig zur Arbeit. Vielleicht schläfst du schlecht oder fühlst dich ständig erschöpft. Warte nicht darauf, dass andere deine Überforderung von allein bemerken. Wenn du keine Grenzen setzt, wissen andere möglicherweise gar nicht, dass deine Belastungsgrenze längst erreicht ist. Menschen orientieren sich häufig daran, was du zulässt und wie viel du immer wieder übernimmst. Das gilt gegenüber dem Chef genauso wie gegenüber Kollegen, Mitarbeitern oder der Familie. Deshalb ist es wichtig zu lernen, rechtzeitig Stopp zu sagen. Nicht aggressiv, nicht beleidigt und nicht respektlos, sondern klar und sachlich. „Das schaffe ich heute nicht mehr in der notwendigen Qualität." „Dafür benötige ich mehr Zeit." „Bitte sagen Sie mir, welche Aufgabe jetzt Priorität hat." „Diese zusätzliche Aufgabe kann ich übernehmen, wenn eine andere verschoben wird." Solche Sätze schaffen Klarheit. Ein ehrliches Nein ist oft besser als ein überfordertes Ja. Du darfst deine Arbeit engagiert machen. Du darfst dich einbringen, neue Ideen unterstützen und Verantwortung übernehmen. Aber du musst nicht alles gleichzeitig tragen. Ende August gehen wir in St. Moritz genau solchen Fragen nach. Wie setzt du klare Grenzen? Wie kommunizierst du deine Bedürfnisse? Wie stehst du zu dir, ohne ständig Angst vor den Reaktionen anderer zu haben? Für die ersten vier Plätze gibt es einen besonderen Seminarpreis von 497 Euro. Hier findest du das aktuelle Seminar: https://bit.ly/NEIN-Seminar-Podcast Jetzt liegt die Entscheidung bei dir. Finde zu dir und gestalte dir ein traumhaftes, schönes Leben.

Giordano, Anna www.deutschlandfunk.de, Informationen am Abend

I am Rolf Claessen and my co-host Ken Suzan and I are welcoming you to episode 177 of our podcast IP Fridays! Today's interview guest is Dr. Ernst-Peter Heilein, who is a German and European patent attorney, the founder of HEILEIN IP LAW, and a long-time IP leader at BSH Home Appliances. He is the mastermind behind the BSH v. Electrolux decision of the European Court of Justice about long-arm jurisdiction in Europe that has the whole patent world stirring in Europe at the moment! But before we jump into this fascinating interview, I have news for you! Emboline v. AorticLab (UPC Court of Appeal) The UPC Court of Appeal has clarified for the first time how a conditional revocation counterclaim should be handled, in a dispute over Emboline’s embolic protection patent EP 2 129 425 against AorticLab. A defendant can validly make its revocation counterclaim conditional on infringement being found first, meaning no ruling on the counterclaim is needed if the infringement claim fails, as the Munich Local Division had held. The Court of Appeal also closed a related gap: if the claimant appeals a non-infringement finding, the counterclaimant may conditionally appeal the unresolved counterclaim too. AorticLab missed its own appeal deadline and can now at best seek re-establishment of rights, while Emboline has already appealed the non-infringement finding. FujiFilm v. Kodak (UPC Court of Appeal) Following the closely watched long-arm jurisdiction ruling of June 2, the UPC Court of Appeal, chaired by Rian Kalden, has now granted FujiFilm an injunction against Kodak in a second proceeding. The Court upheld the limited printing plate patent and found that Kodak’s Sonora XTRA 3 plate infringes it. Kodak can no longer sell or use that plate in Germany. OpenAI v. EUIPO (General Court of the EU, T-555/25) The General Court’s Eighth Chamber dismissed OpenAI’s action against the EUIPO decision to partially cancel the OPENAI trademark. The partial refusal for classes 9, 42, and 45 rests decisively on Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR, the descriptiveness ground. For a significant part of the English-speaking public, “OPENAI” directly conveys that the goods or services are provided using freely accessible artificial intelligence. Dental Monitoring v. Align Technology (CAFC) On July 7, 2026, the Federal Circuit confirmed that AI and deep-learning patent claims covering dental image analysis are not patent-eligible under Section 101. Simply training a “deep learning device” on a specific dataset does not amount to a patent-eligible technical solution. Publisher v. Google (Munich I Regional Court) The Munich I Regional Court issued a preliminary injunction barring Google from spreading false factual claims about a publishing company in its AI Overviews. A search query combining the company’s name with the German term for “fraud scheme” had triggered an AI-generated summary containing entirely fabricated accusations of subscription traps. KPN v. Oppo (Federal Court of Justice, X ZR 103/24) On July 1, the Federal Court of Justice dismissed KPN’s appeal against the revocation of a central claim of its LTE patent EP 2 291 033. Oppo had successfully challenged the claim, leaving KPN’s infringement action against Oppo’s German distribution entity without a legal basis for now. BSH v. Electrolux: What the ECJ Ruling Means for Your Company’s Patent Enforcement Strategy A vacuum cleaner from 2001 has reshaped the European patent landscape. That sounds like an overstatement. It isn’t. For IP Fridays, I spoke with Dr. Ernst-Peter Heilein, founder of HEILEIN IP LAW and long-time Senior IP Leader at BSH Home Appliances. He guided the case BSH v. Electrolux from its first strategic idea all the way to the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Justice, a case that earned the 2025 Managing IP Award as “Europe Impact Case of the Year.” For managing directors, IP heads, and R&D leaders at German Mittelstand companies, this case is not a legal footnote. It changes where you can enforce your patents, and it changes where you yourself can be sued if your company operates across several European markets. That is what this article is about. Background: How a Patent Dispute Became an ECJ Case The invention dates back to 2001 and concerns a new vacuum cleaner technology. In 2006, BSH identified what it believed was an unauthorized use of that invention and contacted Electrolux to clarify the situation. The European patent was granted in 2009 and validated in a number of European countries. Nobody, Heilein says, could have imagined at the time that this matter would eventually reach the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Justice almost twenty years later. In late 2018, BSH successfully defended the patent through opposition and appeal proceedings before the European Patent Office. In 2019, the Higher Regional Court of Düsseldorf found that certain Electrolux vacuum cleaner models infringed the patent. A classic milestone win, the kind that occurs regularly in patent practice. Except the patent had been validated in many countries. Winning in Germany did not solve the enforcement problem everywhere else. Heilein describes the starting point in very concrete terms: how do you enforce a patent that exists in many countries without filing a separate lawsuit in every single one? And how do you prevent claims from becoming time-barred while you work that out? Running parallel proceedings in multiple countries is not just legally complex. It consumes time, personnel, and money that a mid-sized company rarely has in that quantity to spare. This is exactly where the real value of this case for you begins. From the outset, this was never an academic debate about jurisdiction. It was a question that every company holding rights in more than one country eventually faces: how do you enforce your rights efficiently without burning your budget on ten parallel proceedings? Brussels Ia Regulation: The Underrated Article 4 While searching for a solution, the BSH team came across Article 4 of the Brussels Ia Regulation. The underlying idea is simple: a person can generally be sued in the country where that person is based. In the BSH case, that pointed toward the Swedish home court, because Electrolux is headquartered in Stockholm. For a long time, this rule played no real role in patent practice. The widely held view was that cross-border patent litigation in Europe was effectively dead the moment a defendant challenged the validity of the patent. Anyone wanting to enforce a patent across several countries appeared to have no choice but to litigate country by country. Heilein and his team questioned that assumption instead of simply accepting it. This is the point I find most instructive: challenging accepted assumptions in your own field is often the difference between a standard solution and a strategic one. In 2020, the team decided to file the action in Sweden, aware that they were looking at a possibility, not a guarantee. Cross-Border Enforcement: The Three Questions Referred to Luxembourg After Electrolux challenged the validity of the patents, the Swedish home court declared itself not competent to hear the case. BSH appealed, and the Swedish Court of Appeal agreed to refer three questions to the European Court of Justice. The first question addressed the core problem: does a home court that would otherwise have jurisdiction over an infringement claim lose that jurisdiction simply because the defendant argues the patent is invalid? The second question concerned a feature common to many legal systems, including Germany’s, where infringement and validity are decided in separate proceedings. The third question originally concerned Turkey. Today, most people immediately think of the United Kingdom, and some even think of US patents. Originally, the question was simpler: do the same jurisdiction rules apply to patents from countries outside the European Union? The fact that the ECJ first assigned the case to a Chamber of seven judges and later referred it to the Grand Chamber of 15 judges already signaled how much weight the Court placed on these questions. The Judgment: What the ECJ Actually Decided A home court does not automatically lose jurisdiction simply because the defendant argues the patent is invalid. For many years, the opposite was widely assumed to be settled law. The ECJ made clear that this reading was too narrow. The court where the defendant is based can generally continue to hear the infringement case. One point matters for how you read this ruling: questions concerning the validity of a European patent still fall to the national courts of the country for which the patent was granted, as provided in Article 24(4) of the Brussels Ia Regulation. What is new is that the infringement case does not automatically collapse the moment validity is challenged. The home court keeps control of the overall proceeding. For patents from EU Member States, the home court does not automatically lose jurisdiction. It assesses the validity challenge. If it looks strong, the home court may stay the infringement case. If it looks weak, the home court may proceed. For patents from non-EU countries, the home court may stay the case if a validity proceeding is already pending there, drawing on Articles 33 and 34 of the Brussels Ia Regulation. The result is a considerably more flexible system than most observers expected . Patents from Outside the EU: Long-Arm Jurisdiction The part of the judgment with the greatest international reach concerns patents from countries outside the EU. The ECJ ruled that the special jurisdiction rule for patent validity generally does not apply to non-European patents. That means the general rule can apply instead, opening the door for infringement claims based on non-European patents to be brought before a home court where the defendant is based in the EU. Commentators quickly started calling this “long-arm jurisdiction.” One clarification matters here, because it tends to get lost in the public discussion: the ECJ did not say that a European home court can revoke or invalidate a foreign patent. That remains a matter for the authorities and courts of the country that granted it. What the ECJ said is that a European home court may assess the claims between the parties. That distinction is essential to how you should read this ruling. Consequences in Practice: Fujifilm, Regeneron, and Onesta Three recent cases show how quickly practice is already adapting to the new possibilities. Fujifilm v. Kodak: the Düsseldorf Local Division of the Unified Patent Court accepted jurisdiction over the UK part of a European patent even before the ECJ delivered its judgment, building on reasoning the Advocate General had already signaled in the BSH case. In June 2026, the UPC Court of Appeal further developed that approach based on the principles confirmed in BSH. Regeneron v. Formycon: the Munich home court applied the BSH framework and granted a Europe-wide injunction based on a European patent, one of the first examples of a national home court putting the BSH logic into practice. Onesta v. BMW: this case shows the debate has moved well beyond Europe. After Onesta attempted to assert two US patents before the Munich home court, BMW obtained an anti-suit injunction from a Texas federal court. Judge Albright took the view that US patents should generally be decided by US courts. The injunction was directed against Onesta, not against the Munich court, and Onesta has appealed the Texas decision. The Munich home court stayed the proceeding but did not reject its own jurisdiction. Whether a European home court can ultimately decide infringement claims based on US patents remains an open question, one that has turned from a European jurisdiction issue into an international jurisdiction conflict. What This Means for Your Company Heilein sums up twenty years of litigation in three lessons, and I share this assessment without reservation when advising my Mittelstand clients. First: patent enforcement has become more international. National litigation still matters, but companies should think across borders from the very beginning, not only once the first cease-and-desist letter has been sent. Second: choice of forum now carries real strategic weight. Where you bring a case can matter just as much as the legal arguments themselves. Third: long-term commitment pays off. Major developments rarely result from a single filing or a single hearing. They come from pursuing a clear strategy consistently over many years. For you as a managing director, R&D lead, or Head of IP at an innovative Mittelstand company, this translates into two concrete points. First, if you hold rights in several European countries and a competitor infringes them, you no longer necessarily have to fund five or six parallel national proceedings. A single action at the infringer’s home base can be the economically smarter option. Second, and this side of the ruling gets less attention in public discussion, if your company is based in Germany and operates across several countries, you can now be sued at your own home base over patent infringement claims tied to activities in other countries. That risk belongs in every freedom-to-operate analysis and in every assessment tied to acquisitions or market entry. Here is the full transcript of the interview: Host Today's interview guest is Dr. Ernst-Peter Heilein. If you don't know Ernst-Peter, he is a German and European patent attorney, the founder of HEILEIN IP LAW, and a long-time IP leader at BSH Home Appliances. Thank you for being on IP Fridays. Answer Yeah, great to be here! BLOCK 1 – THE PERSON BEHIND THE CASE Host When looking at your career, one thing stands out: you never really followed the traditional path of either private practice or industry. Er, how did your professional journey begin, actually? Answer My professional roots are actually in private practice. After qualifying as a Patent Attorney, I worked in private practice and fairly early founded my own law firm, which later became HEILEIN IP LAW. Host So you never completely left private practice behind? Answer Exactly. In 2005, I had the opportunity to take on additional responsibilities on the BSH side. There, I was able to build and lead a new unit within the IP organization. The team was responsible for patents in the small appliances business, as well as global design and trademark protection. At the same time, I helped build an international network of internal and external IP counsel and coordinated their work. Host That still sounds fairly like traditional IP work. When did international disputes become part of your career? Answer Over time, my focus gradually shifted from traditional IP protection to strategic enforcement. That included anti-counterfeiting activities, global trademark and design matters, and cross-border patent disputes. Host So your work became more about enforcing rights rather than simply obtaining and managing them, right? Answer Exactly. And that development eventually led me to play a strategic role in the case BSH Home Appliances versus Electrolux, a case that still accompanies me today. Host Looking back now — from private practice, to building an international IP organization, and eventually becoming involved in a case before the European Court of Justice — did you ever imagine that path? Answer No, not at all. Looking back, this combination of private practice, responsibilities on the business side, and international enforcement experience turned out to be very useful when our case eventually reached the European Court of Justice. BLOCK 2 – HOW IT ALL STARTED Host Yeah, talking about this case. The case BSH versus Electrolux started long before it reached the European Court of Justice. When did the story actually begin? Answer The story actually begins much earlier than most people would expect. The invention itself dates back to 2001 and concerns a new vacuum cleaner technology. In 2006, we identified what we believed to be an unauthorized use of the invention and contacted Electrolux to clarify the situation. The European patent in suit was granted in 2009 and validated in a number of European countries. At the time, nobody could have imagined that this would eventually lead to a decision of the European Court of Justice almost twenty years later. Host Wow, 20 years! That's a long time. So, at first this was simply a normal patent dispute? Answer Yes, absolutely! After many years of opposition and appeal proceedings before the European Patent Office, we were finally able to defend the patent successfully in late 2018. Less than one year later, in the summer of 2019, the Higher Regional Court of Düsseldorf found that certain Electrolux vacuum cleaner models infringed the patent. Host Er, at that point, one might think, that the patent owner had achieved its goal, right? Answer That is what many people would think. But that judgment did not bring the dispute to an end. A new challenge emerged. The patent had been validated in many European countries. Winning in one country, like Germany, did not automatically solve the enforcement issue in all the other countries. Host What was the practical problem then? Answer We were facing a very simple question: How do we enforce a patent that exists in many countries? And how do we prevent claims from becoming time-barred without filing separate infringement actions in every single country? Doing that would not only be legally complex. It would also require a huge amount of time, effort, and money. Host That sounds less like a major legal question and more like a business problem. Answer Exactly. At the beginning, this was not an academic discussion about jurisdiction. It was a very practical business question. How can we enforce our rights efficiently without running parallel lawsuits all over Europe? That was the real challenge we were trying to solve. BLOCK 3 – THE IDEA OF A CENTRAL ACTION Host So, how did the idea of one central action emerge? Answer While looking for possible solutions, we came across Article 4 of the Brussels Ia Regulation. The idea behind that rule is very simple. In general, a person can be sued in the country where that person is based. In our case, that pointed us toward the Swedish home court because Electrolux is based in Stockholm. Host That sounds like a fairly ordinary jurisdiction rule. Answer Yes. And that was exactly what made it interesting. Article 4 is the general rule. The question was whether that rule could also be used for patent infringement claims covering several countries. Host Was that a common approach at the time? Answer No. Quite the opposite. Many people believed that cross-border patent litigation in Europe was effectively dead. Host That sounds rather dramatic. Why did people think that? Answer Because there was a widely held view that a central patent case could be stopped as soon as the defendant challenged the validity of the patent. As a result, many companies assumed they had no real choice but to litigate country by country. Host Yet you decided to look at the issue differently. Answer Yes. Sometimes it is worth taking a fresh look at accepted assumptions. We felt that Article 4 might play a much more important role than many people believed. Host So at that point, you already saw an opportunity, right? Answer Yes, we saw a possibility! Not a guarantee. But we believed there was a strong legal basis for bringing all claims before the Swedish home court. Host And that eventually led to the lawsuit being filed in Sweden, right? Answer Exactly. In 2020, we decided to file the action in Sweden. That followed our success before the European Patent Office in late 2018 and in the Düsseldorf infringement proceedings in 2019. At that stage, our objective was very practical. We were simply trying to find an efficient way to enforce rights that exist in many countries. Host At that point, you already think the case might end up before the European Court of Justice? Answer No. Not at all. We were focused on solving a business problem. The idea that the case would eventually reach the European Court of Justice came much later. BLOCK 4 – THE OBSTACLE: GAT v. LuK Host You mentioned that, er, many people believed cross-border patent litigation in Europe was no longer a realistic option. Why was that? Answer The main reason was an earlier decision of the European Court of Justice known as GAT versus LuK, decided in 2006. For many years, that decision was understood to mean that a home court could lose its ability to hear a patent infringement case as soon as the defendant challenged the validity of the patent. In practice, that understanding made many cross-border patent cases extremely difficult. As a result, many people believed that cross-border patent litigation was not effective. Host And yet you decided to follow exactly that path, right? Answer Yes. Sometimes it is worth questioning assumptions that have been accepted for many years. We believed that Article 4 of the Brussels Ia Regulation played a more important role than many people thought. That is why, in 2020, we decided to file the case in Sweden. Host And at that point, did you already realize that the case might eventually reach the European Court of Justice? Answer No. Not at all. Our goal was simply to find a practical solution to a real enforcement problem. The idea that this would eventually become a case before the European Court of Justice was far from our minds. BLOCK 5 – THE QUESTIONS REFERRED TO THE EUROPEAN COURT OF JUSTICE Host So, how did the case eventually reach the European Court of Justice then? Answer After we filed the lawsuit in Sweden in 2020, Electrolux challenged the validity of the patents. The Swedish home court then concluded that it could not hear the case and declared itself not competent to proceed. We appealed that decision, because the issues were important and affected far more than just our case. We suggested that several questions should be referred to the European Court of Justice. The Swedish Court of Appeal agreed and sent those questions to Luxembourg. Host So, what were these main questions? Answer At the heart of the case, there were three questions: First: if a home court has jurisdiction over a patent infringement case, does it lose that jurisdiction simply because the defendant argues that the patent is invalid? Second: Does it make a difference if the national legal system requires validity issues to be decided in a separate proceeding? And third: Do this jurisdiction rules also apply to patents from countries outside the European Union? Host The third question sounds particularly interesting. Answer Yes, at the time, the discussion in our case focused on Turkey. Today, many people immediately think about the United Kingdom, and some even think about US patents. But originally, the question was much simpler. We wanted to know, whether the same jurisdiction rules also apply when patents from non-European countries are involved. Host And, did you realize how important that third question might become? Answer No, certainly not to that extent. At the beginning, most of the discussion focused on the relationship between the different jurisdiction rules within Europe. Only later did it become clear that the European Court of Justice’s answers might have consequences far beyond the European Union. Host So, how did the European Court of Justice react then? Answer That was actually quite interesting. The European Court of Justice first heard the case before a Chamber of seven judges. Later, it referred the case to the Grand Chamber of 15 judges. That already showed that the European Court of Justice considered the issues to be important. And when the judgment finally came out, some of the answers were very different from what many observers had expected. BLOCK 6 – THE DECISION OF THE EUROPEAN COURT OF JUSTICE Host Let’s talk about the European Court of Justice’s answers. What was, in your view, the most important part of the decision? Answer The most important point was this: A home court does not automatically lose jurisdiction just because the defendant argues that the patent is invalid. For many years, many people believed exactly the opposite. The European Court of Justice made it clear that this understanding was too narrow. The home court where the defendant is based can generally continue to hear the infringement case. That is really the key message of the decision. Host Why is that so important? Answer Because it gives new momentum to cross-border patent enforcement in Europe. Before this decision, many people assumed that a defendant could effectively stop a central infringement case simply by challenging the validity of the patent. The European Court of Justice made clear that this is not automatically the case. Host Does that mean the home court hearing the infringement case will now also decide whether the patent is valid? Answer No, and that is a very important point. The European Court of Justice confirmed that questions about the validity of a European patent should still be decided by the national courts of the country for which the patent was granted, as provided for in Article 24(4) of the Brussels Ia Regulation. What is new, is that the infringement case does not automatically fall apart because of a validity challenge. The home court can keep control of the overall case. Host So, how does that work in practice? Answer The European Court of Justice gives the home court some flexibility. For patents from Member States of the European Union, the home court does not automatically lose its power if the defendant says the patent is invalid. The home court can look at the validity challenge. If it seems strong, the home court may stay the infringement case. If it seems weak, the home court may continue the infringement case. For patents from countries outside the European Union, the home court may also stay the case if there is already a validity case pending in that country. In such situations, Articles 33 and 34 of the Brussels Ia Regulation may apply. That creates a much more flexible system than many people expected. Host Er, we have discussed the implications for patents from Member States of the European Union, but a lot of attention has been given to another part of the decision, that we already talked about briefly, namely patents from countries outside the European Union. Answer Absolutely, and that may be the part of the judgment with the biggest international impact. Host Why? Answer Because the European Court of Justice decided that the special jurisdiction rule for patent validity does not generally apply to patents from non-European countries. In simple terms, that means the general rule can still apply. And that opens the possibility of bringing infringement cases based on non-European patents before the home court where the defendant is based in the European Union. Host That sounds like a very far-reaching statement. Answer It is. That is why many commentators started talking about what is often called “long-arm jurisdiction.” In other words, a European home court may, under certain circumstances, deal with infringement claims relating to patents from countries outside the European Union. Host So, many listeners may now wonder: Can a Swedish or a German home court really decide a dispute involving a British or Turkish patent? Answer Ah, we need to be careful here. The European Court of Justice did not say that a European home court can cancel or revoke a foreign patent. That remains a matter for the authorities and national courts of the country that granted the patent. What the European Court of Justice said is that a European home court may assess the claims between the parties in a dispute. That is an important distinction. Host Did you realize during the proceedings how important this part of the decision might become? Answer Not to this extent. We started with a very practical enforcement problem. Only later did it become clear that the European Court of Justice’s answers might have consequences far beyond the original case. Today, the decision is discussed not only in connection with Turkish patents, but also British patents and even possible claims involving US patents. Host If you had to summarize the decision in one sentence, and I know, this is a very difficult task, what would that sentence be? Answer The European Court of Justice did not re-invent cross-border patent enforcement in Europe. But after many years, it clearly gave it much more room to develop. BLOCK 7 – THE REACTION OF THE IP COMMUNITY Host So, how was the decision received after it was published? Answer Ah, the reaction was very strong. It quickly became clear that many people saw the decision as much more than just another patent case. Many articles and commentaries described it as an important development in European patent litigation. Host Did that surprise you? Answer To some extent, yes. Of course, we knew that the questions referred to the European Court of Justice were important. But I was surprised by how quickly the decision became a major topic of discussion across the European patent community. Host Er, you later presented the decision at several conferences yourself, right? Answer Yes. The discussion started right away. I had the opportunity to discuss and present the case at several conferences and events, including the annual VPP conference in Germany and the Ingolstadt Patent Symposium. I recently received an invitation to serve as a panel speaker on cross-border litigation at the AIPPI World Congress 2026 in Hamburg. What struck me most was that both internal and external IP counsel were trying to understand the practice consequences of the decision. Host So, what was the question you were asked most often? Answer Almost always the same one: How far does this decision really go? People wanted to know whether this was simply a correction of earlier case law or whether it marked the beginning of a new phase in cross-border patent enforcement. Host And what did you say? Answer I would describe it as: neither a revolution nor a minor adjustment. The European Court of Justice did not rewrite the system. But it clearly changed the balance between the different jurisdiction rules. That is why I believe the decision will continue to be discussed for many years, both in practice and in academia. Host Er, one year later, the case received the Managing IP Award as the “Europe Impact Case of the Year.” What did that recognition mean to you? Answer First of all, it was a great honor for everyone involved. But for me, the most important thing was the message behind the award. The award showed that the decision affects much more than the parties involved in the case. It has an impact on European patent practice as a whole. And it also shows that the underlying jurisdiction questions reach far beyond patent law. They are relevant whenever companies have to enforce rights across borders in an increasing international world. That is what makes this case special. Host You often describe this case as a team effort. Answer Absolutely. A case of this size is never the work of one person. Many people contributed over many years. On the BSH side, team members from different functions played an important role throughout the proceedings. And we worked closely with external advisors in several countries. So I see the award as recognition of a shared achievement rather than an individual success. Host Looking at the discussions today, would you say the debate is over? Answer Not at all. I actually think we are only at the beginning. There are still many practical questions that home courts will have to answer in the coming years. That is exactly why the decision remains so interesting. BLOCK 8 – WHAT DOES THE DECISION MEAN IN PRACTICE? Host Let’s move from legal theory to practical business implications. What does this decision mean for patent owners and companies? Answer In my view, the biggest change is strategic. Patent owners now have better opportunities to bring cross-border disputes together in one central proceeding. At the same time, companies need to be aware that they may face claims at their European headquarters covering activities in several countries. So the decision creates opportunities, but it also creates new risks. Host That sounds really like a significant shift; right? Answer I would call it a rebalancing rather than a revolution. The European Court of Justice did not create a completely new system. But it made clear that the general rule — suing a defendant where it is based — plays a much bigger role than many people had assumed. As a result, the court at the defendant’s home base becomes much more important strategically. Host In the patent community, people often talk about cases such as Fujifilm v. Kodak, or Regeneron v. Formycon or Onesta v. BMW. Why are those cases attracting so much attention now? Answer Because they show how quickly practice is already adapting to the new possibilities. Fujifilm was important because it was one of the first UPC cases to test the logic that was later confirmed in BSH. At that time, the BSH case was already pending before the European Court of Justice, and the Advocate General had expressed a view that pointed in that direction. Against that background, the Düsseldorf Local Division accepted jurisdiction over the UK part of a European patent even before the European Court of Justice delivered its judgment. In June 2026, based on the principles confirmed in BSH, the UPC Court of Appeal further developed that approach. Host And what happened in Regeneron v. Formycon ? Answer In the Regeneron case, the Munich home court applied the approach confirmed in BSH and granted a Europe-wide injunction based on a European patent. That was one of the first examples of a national home court using the BSH framework in practice. That demonstrates that the decision is not just an academic discussion. It already has practical consequences. Host And what about the Onesta case? Answer The Onesta case shows that the debate has moved beyond Europe. After Onesta attempted to assert two U.S. patents before the Munich home court, BMW obtained an anti-suit injunction from a Texas federal court. Judge Albright took the view that U.S. patents should generally be decided by U.S. courts. The Onesta case therefore illustrates that the limits of the BSH logic are now being tested internationally. Host Did that end the proceedings in Munich? Answer Not necessarily. What makes the case interesting is that the Texas injunction was directed against Onesta, not against the Munich home court. At the same time, Onesta appealed Judge Albright’s decision in the United States. The Munich home court therefore decided to stay the case for the time being. Importantly, however, the Munich home court did not reject its own jurisdiction. So, at least for the moment, the underlying question remains open. Host Can a European home court ultimately decide infringement claims based on U.S. patents? Answer That question has not yet been answered. But the case has already shown that such an attempt can trigger strong reactions outside Europe. In that sense, the debate has moved from a European jurisdiction question to an international jurisdiction conflict. Host For our audience of internal and external IP counsel, what are the main lessons from this decision? Answer For me, there are three key takeaways. First: Patent enforcement has become more international. National litigation remains important, but companies should think across borders from the very beginning. Second: The choice of forum is becoming more important. Where you bring a case may be just as important as the legal arguments themselves. And third: Long-term commitment matters. This case shows that major developments rarely happen because of a single filing or a single hearing. They usually result from pursuing a clear strategy consistently over many years. Host Do you think this decision will also influence the Unified Patent Court, the UPC? Answer Yes, I believe so. The decision fits into a broader trend toward more centralized patent litigation. Both, the UPC and the BSH decision are driven by the same idea: Handling cross-border disputes more efficiently and more consistently. What is interesting is that many of the questions were faced in BSH versus Electrolux are now reappearing in a new form before the UPC. Cases like Fujifilm versus Kodak show that the discussion about jurisdiction, scope, and cross-border effects is far from over. Institutions may be new. But the underlying challenge remains the same: How do we enforce patents effectively across borders? Host Some commentators even see this as a step toward a more independent European patent judiciary. Do you agree? Answer To some extent, yes. Professor Hanns Ullrich, who supervised my doctoral studies on the legal protection of a then new semiconductor technology many years ago, recently observed that the UPC is gradually developing its own European case law.[DH1] I think that is — again — a very accurate observation. If you look at the developments since BSH and the first UPC decisions, you can see that European patent litigation is becoming more connected. National courts will remain important. But at the same time, we are seeing a more integrated European patent system taking shape. How far that development will go remains to be seen. Host Looking back on the entire journey — from a vacuum cleaner patent, through litigation in several countries, all the way to the European Court of Justice and an award-winning decision — what is your personal conclusion? Answer My main conclusion is that innovation needs effective legal protection. But it also requires the willingness to challenge established assumptions and explore new approaches. For me, the BSH versus Electrolux case shows that persistence, teamwork, a willingness to challenge accepted assumptions, and a long-term strategic view can sometimes lead to developments that go far beyond the original dispute. BLOCK 9 – THE PERSON BEHIND THE DECISION Host Ernst-Peter, today we have talked a lot about jurisdiction, patent enforcement, and European case law. When you look back at this journey, which has lasted almost twenty years, what impressed you most? Answer Probably the realization that major developments rarely follow a straight line. When we started thinking about the case, we were dealing with a very practical problem. Nobody said: Let’s create a landmark decision of the European Court of Justice. We were simply looking for a reasonable and practical solution for a company. The fact that this would eventually lead to a decision with Europe-wide impact was something nobody could foresee at the time. Host Were there moments when you thought the case might fail? Answer Of course. Whenever a case lasts many years, there will be setbacks, new questions, and unexpected developments. That is exactly why persistence is so important. In the end, success is often not about one filing or one hearing. It is about staying focused on a clear objective over a long period of time. Host You often talk about teamwork. Is that one of the main lessons from this case? Answer Absolutely. A case of this size requires commitment from many people and institutes over many years. On the BSH side, my role was to help maintain the strategic direction and long-term commitment that such a case requires. At the same time, experts from different functions within BSH contributed technical expertise, testing, documentation, and practical support throughout the proceedings. On the legal side, Roman Sedlmaier and his team at IP-Counsels Gigerich & Sedlmaier (IPCGS) helped develop the cross-border litigation strategy and the overall case architecture. Our Swedish litigation team then carried the arguments through all stages of the proceedings. Looking back, it was the combination of institutional commitment, technical expertise, strategic leadership, well-designed case architecture, and consistent execution that made the difference. Host One final question. What advice would you give to young internal or external IP counsel? Answer Stay curious: Don’t be afraid to question accepted assumptions. Be patient: Intellectual property is usually a marathon, not a sprint. And never forget that every patent dispute involves an invention, a business, and many people who have worked hard to bring that innovation to market. For me, that connection between technology, law, and strategy is what still makes this profession so fascinating today. Host Ernst-Peter, thank you very much for joining us today on IP Fridays. Answer Thank you. It was a pleasure to be here.

3159 Wie lange willst du dich noch verbiegen? Wie lange willst du dich noch für andere Menschen verbiegen? Wie lange willst du noch versuchen, es allen recht zu machen? Sie wollen etwas nicht, dann sagen sie Nein. Wie lange willst du noch besonders lieb und nett sein, nur damit dich möglichst jeder mag? Vielleicht hast du längst gemerkt: verbiegst und je stärker du versuchst, nirgendwo anzuecken, desto mehr entfernst du dich von dir selbst. Hinter diesem Verhalten steckt häufig der tiefe Wunsch, geliebt zu werden. Vielleicht hättest du dir von deinen Eltern mehr Liebe und Anerkennung gewünscht. Vielleicht hast du als Kind nicht die Nähe bekommen, die du gebraucht hättest. Dadurch kann ein Mangel entstehen, den du später krampfhaft durch andere Menschen auszugleichen versuchst. In der Partnerschaft, im Beruf, bei deinen Kindern oder gegenüber deinen Eltern: Du strengst dich an, passt dich an und hoffst, endlich die Liebe und Anerkennung zu bekommen, die dir fehlen. Doch zuerst beginnt die Liebe bei dir selbst. Du musst lernen, dich selbst anzunehmen, zu achten und zu lieben. Solange du deinen eigenen Wert davon abhängig machst, wie andere auf dich reagieren, wirst du ihnen immer hinterherlaufen. Dann beschäftigst du dich ständig mit der Frage: Was muss ich tun, damit die anderen mich mögen? Die wichtigere Frage lautet jedoch: Wer bin ich eigentlich? Was will ich wirklich? Wofür bin ich hier? Welche Aufgabe möchte ich in meinem Leben erfüllen? Ich bin davon überzeugt, dass wir nicht zufällig auf dieser Erde sind. Jeder Mensch hat bestimmte Fähigkeiten, Möglichkeiten und Aufgaben. Je mehr wir diese erkennen und leben, desto glücklicher und erfüllter werden wir. Je weniger wir wissen, wofür wir stehen und wohin wir wollen, desto stärker geraten wir in Konflikte – vor allem mit uns selbst. Ich gebe seit vielen Jahren Seminare. Wenn ich Menschen frage: „Was ist deine Aufgabe? Wovon träumst du? Was möchtest du wirklich erreichen?", höre ich häufig: „Ich weiß es nicht." „Ich möchte glücklich sein." „Ich möchte gesund sein." Das sind wichtige Wünsche. Aber da steckt noch viel mehr in dir. Wenn du ein erfülltes Leben führen möchtest, musst du wissen, was du wirklich willst – und was du nicht mehr willst. Zu dem, was du willst, brauchst du ein klares Ja. Zu allem, was dir schadet, dich klein hält oder dir nicht guttut, brauchst du ein klares Nein. Frag dich bei deinen Entscheidungen: Gibt mir das Energie oder kostet es mich Energie? Alles, was dir Kraft, Freude und Entwicklung bringt, zahlt auf dein Leben ein. Alles, was dich dauerhaft Energie kostet, solltest du überprüfen und, wenn möglich, verändern oder aus deinem Leben entfernen. Viele sagen dann: „Wenn das so einfach wäre." Doch häufig ist es tatsächlich einfacher, als wir glauben. Wir haben nur nie gelernt, klar zu uns selbst zu stehen. Kleine Kinder können das noch sehr gut. Sie  wollen etwas nicht dann sagen sie Nein. Sie zeigen deutlich, was ihnen gefällt und was nicht. Später wird ihnen dieses klare Verhalten oft abtrainiert. Sie lernen, sich anzupassen, brav zu sein und niemanden zu enttäuschen. Im Erwachsenenalter fällt es ihnen dann schwer, ihre eigenen Wünsche und Grenzen überhaupt noch wahrzunehmen. Doch du kannst wieder lernen, zu dir zu stehen. Ende August gehen wir in St. Moritz genau diesen Fragen nach. Du lernst dich intensiv kennen, erkennst deine Wünsche, deine Muster und deine Grenzen. Du wirst klar Ja zu dem sagen können, was du wirklich willst, und konsequent Nein zu dem, was nicht mehr zu deinem Leben gehört. Für die ersten vier Teilnehmer gibt es einen besonderen Preis. Danach wird die Teilnahme schrittweise teurer. Hier findest du das aktuelle Seminar: https://bit.ly/NEIN-Seminar-Podcast Freue ich mich auf dich. Sehen wir uns in St. Moritz?

3158 Setze klare Grenzen Setze klare Grenzen. Immer. Eine Grenze setzt du mit einem klaren Stopp oder einem deutlichen Nein. Klar, konkret und unmissverständlich. Nein heißt Nein. Nein ist eines der kraftvollsten Wörter, die es gibt. Trotzdem fällt es vielen Menschen unglaublich schwer, dieses kleine Wort auszusprechen. Während du diesen Podcast hörst, sag ruhig mehrmals laut: Nein. Vielleicht merkst du dabei schon, dass es dir gar nicht so leicht über die Lippen kommt. Genau das ist bei vielen Menschen das Problem. Sie können nicht aus ihrem tiefsten Inneren Nein sagen. „Nein, das mache ich nicht." „Nein, das will ich nicht." „Nein, das passt für mich nicht." Dazu braucht es Mut. Wenn du über Jahre oder sogar Jahrzehnte immer Ja gesagt hast, ist dieses Verhalten tief in dir verankert. Du sagst wieder Ja und merkst erst später: Eigentlich wollte ich Nein sagen. Du nimmst dir vor: Beim nächsten Mal mache ich es anders. Doch beim nächsten Mal tappst du wieder in dieselbe Falle. Warum? Du bist so konditioniert worden. Durch deine Erziehung, dein Umfeld, deine Erfahrungen und deine Glaubenssätze. Diese Muster können so stark sein, dass dir ein Nein beinahe unmöglich erscheint. Ich sehe das immer wieder. Menschen sagen automatisch Ja. Manchmal kommt dieses Ja bereits mit einem Seufzen: „Ja, ich mache es." Innerlich wollen sie es überhaupt nicht. Komm aus diesem Mechanismus heraus. Wenn du Nein meinst, dann sag Nein. Wenn du Ja sagst, dann prüfe vorher, ob dieses Ja wirklich aus deinem Herzen kommt. Ein echtes Ja fühlt sich klar an. Du hast Lust darauf. Du willst es wirklich. Dann sag Ja. Aber wenn du etwas nicht möchtest, dann sag Nein. Nein. Einfach Nein. Jetzt sagen manche: „Man muss doch auch Kompromisse machen." Natürlich gibt es Situationen, in denen Menschen aufeinander zugehen müssen. Aber ein Kompromiss darf nicht bedeuten, dass du dich ständig selbst aufgibst. Gibst du immer nach, nur damit es für andere bequemer ist, verkaufst du Stück für Stück deine eigenen Bedürfnisse. Du stellst dein Leben zurück, damit andere keinen Widerstand erleben. Doch es ist nicht deine Aufgabe, das Leben für alle anderen bequem zu machen. Du bist zuerst für dein eigenes Leben verantwortlich. Du musst darauf achten, dass du ein erfülltes, gesundes und glückliches Leben führst. Wie viele Menschen sind frustriert? Wie viele gehen jeden Tag zu einer Arbeit, auf die sie überhaupt keine Lust mehr haben? Wie viele leben in einer Partnerschaft, die schon lange keine echte Partnerschaft mehr ist? Unzählige Menschen bleiben in Situationen, die ihnen nicht guttun, weil ihnen der Mut zum Nein fehlt. Dabei beginnt vieles bereits viel früher. Weißt du von Anfang an, was du willst und was du nicht willst, kannst du deine Grenzen klar kommunizieren. Gerade in einer Partnerschaft ist das entscheidend. Werden Bedürfnisse und Grenzen frühzeitig ausgesprochen, muss es möglicherweise gar nicht erst zu großen Verletzungen oder zum endgültigen Bruch kommen. Das Gleiche gilt im Beruf. Was willst du wirklich? Was bist du bereit zu akzeptieren? Wo ist deine klare Grenze? Je klarer deine Grenzen sind, desto stärker stehst du für dich selbst ein. Das lernst du nicht über Nacht. Vielleicht hast du viel zu lange Ja gesagt. Deshalb braucht es Übung, Mut und Konsequenz. Ende August bist du herzlich nach St. Moritz eingeladen. In diesem Seminar beschäftigen wir uns intensiv damit, wie du erkennst, was du willst und was du nicht mehr willst. Du lernst, deine Bedürfnisse klar auszusprechen, Grenzen zu setzen und ein ehrliches Nein zu kommunizieren. Die Entscheidung liegt bei dir: Leidest du weiter unter alten Mustern oder bist du bereit, etwas zu verändern? Hier findest du das aktuelle Seminar: https://bit.ly/NEIN-Seminar-Podcast Ich freue mich auf dich.

The League Episode #51 – Show Notes In this episode of The League, Clean energy demand continues to accelerate as utilities, data centers, manufacturers, and large commercial customers seek more power. Solar, storage, transmission, and nuclear all have major opportunities, but the next phase of industry growth will depend less on demand and more on execution. In this episode of The League, we discuss the growing importance of permitting, interconnection, community engagement, tax-credit certainty, domestic manufacturing, and access to capital. We also examine the rising cost of grid upgrades in ISO New England, the renewed interest in nuclear development, and the continued evolution of tax equity and transferable tax-credit markets. The companies that can navigate complexity, manage risk, and move projects from development to operation will be best positioned to win.   Host Bio: Benoy Thanjan Benoy Thanjan is the Founder and CEO of Rene Down down down down downu Energy, solar developer and consulting firm, and a strategic advisor to multiple cleantech startups.

3157 Immer machen und tun „Ich bin immer am Machen und Tun, aber keiner dankt es mir." Hast du diesen Gedanken auch schon gehabt? Du kannst noch mehr machen. Du kannst dich noch stärker anstrengen. Trotzdem werden es dir viele Menschen nicht danken. Warum? Weil dein Einsatz für sie längst selbstverständlich geworden ist. Es ist selbstverständlich, dass du immer da bist. Es ist selbstverständlich, dass du funktionierst. Es ist selbstverständlich, dass du alles erledigst. Doch selbstverständlich sollte das nicht sein. Die entscheidende Frage lautet: Wo ist deine eigene Wertschätzung geblieben? Du kannst nicht von anderen erwarten, dass sie dich wertschätzen, wenn du selbst deinen Wert nicht erkennst. Du darfst zuerst lernen, dich selbst zu achten. Je mehr du dich wertschätzt, desto klarer zeigst du anderen, wie sie mit dir umgehen dürfen. Lässt du dich dagegen wie einen Putzlappen behandeln, den man benutzt und anschließend in die Ecke wirft, darfst du dich nicht wundern, wenn andere genau damit weitermachen. Wie behandelst du dich selbst? Warum setzt du keine Grenzen? Warum machst du immer weiter? Vielleicht bäumst du dich kurz auf und sagst etwas. Dann bekommst du Gegenwind, ziehst dich wieder in dein Schneckenhaus zurück und machst erneut alles für die anderen. Das kann im Beruf passieren, in der Partnerschaft, in der Familie oder in einem Verein. Je höher deine Selbstachtung ist, desto eher werden dich auch andere Menschen achten und respektieren. Die Frage ist: Wie lange möchtest du dieses Spiel noch mitmachen? Viele sagen: „Mir reicht es langsam. Ich weiß nicht, wie lange ich das noch aushalte." Vielleicht suchen sie Hilfe, behandeln aber nur die Folgen ihrer Belastung. Doch wenn du die Ursache nicht anschaust, wird sich an deinem Leben nichts Grundlegendes verändern. Deshalb darfst du lernen, zu dir selbst zu stehen. Dafür ist es wichtig, dass du dich kennenlernst und dir bewusst machst, was du alles kannst. Wie oft wirst du von anderen niedergemacht? „Du bist zu dumm." „Du kannst das nicht." „Das hast du noch nie gekonnt." Ich sehe Männer, die respektlos mit ihren Frauen umgehen. Es gibt ebenso Frauen, die ihre Männer fertigmachen. Eltern beschimpfen ihre Kinder, Kinder ihre Eltern. Was ist das für ein Umgang? Der eine verhält sich respektlos, und der andere läuft herum wie ein geprügelter Hund. Anschließend kommen die Entschuldigungen: „Mein Mann ist eben so." „Meine Frau hatte eine schwere Kindheit." „Mein Sohn steht gerade unter Stress." Eine schwierige Vergangenheit oder eine belastende Situation kann manches erklären. Sie rechtfertigt aber keine dauerhafte Respektlosigkeit. Es gibt Grenzen. Diese Grenzen beginnen dort, wo die Würde und die persönlichen Grenzen eines anderen Menschen nicht mehr respektiert werden. Zuerst musst du deine eigenen Grenzen kennen. Du musst wissen: Bis hierher und keinen Schritt weiter. Jetzt ist Schluss. Dann musst du bereit sein, konsequent zu handeln. Oft hält dich die Angst zurück. Du hast Angst, deine Arbeitsstelle zu verlieren. Du hast Angst, deinen Partner, deine Kinder oder deine Eltern zu verlieren. Diese Angst begleitet viele Menschen wie ein roter Faden. Sie entsteht häufig durch Erfahrungen, Erziehung und das Umfeld. Wer früh gelernt hat, sich anzupassen, um Anerkennung oder Liebe zu bekommen, trägt dieses Muster oft bis ins Erwachsenenalter weiter. Angst macht dich gefügig und verhindert, dass du klar entscheidest. Deshalb ist es wichtig, aus dieser Angst herauszukommen. Der Satz „Ich bin eben so" ist keine Lösung. Du bist geprägt durch deine Erziehung, dein Umfeld, deine Glaubenssätze und deine bisherigen Erfahrungen. Nur du kannst diese Muster erkennen und verändern. Ende August lade ich dich nach St. Moritz ein. Zweieinhalb Tage schauen wir ganz genau hin: Was treibt dich an? Warum sagst du nicht Nein? Warum stellst du deine eigenen Bedürfnisse immer wieder zurück? Du lernst, zu dir zu stehen, deine Grenzen zu erkennen und ein klares Nein auszusprechen, wenn etwas nicht mehr zu deiner Welt gehört. Willst du weiter leiden oder bist du bereit für Veränderung? https://bit.ly/NEIN-Seminar-Podcast Bis zum Wiedersehen.

15 Jahre Freiheitsstrafe kündigt die Bundesregierung für organisierte Steuerkriminalität an – dabei wird schon die aktuelle Höchststrafe von zehn Jahren kaum je ausgeschöpft. Cum-Ex-Schlüsselfigur Hanno Berger wurde 2022 vom LG Bonn wegen besonders schwerer Steuerhinterziehung zu acht Jahren verurteilt, die Staatsanwaltschaft hatte neun gefordert. Ein weiteres Urteil des LG Wiesbaden aus 2023 brachte acht Jahre und drei Monate. 2026 fasste das LG Bonn beide Urteile zu einer Gesamtfreiheitsstrafe von zehn Jahren zusammen – die höchste je verhängte Cum-Ex-Strafe. Ob eine höhere Strafandrohung an diesem Grundproblem etwas ändert, hinterfragen wir in dieser Folge kritisch – ebenso wie die frühere Chefermittlerin Anne Brorhilker, die der Justiz mit dem Vorwurf den Rücken kehrte, kleine Fälle würden verfolgt, große dagegen eingestellt. Wir gehen den 26-Punkte-Aktionsplan gegen Steuer- und Finanzkriminalität im Detail durch: Mit der geplanten Wiedereinführung des Verbrechenstatbestands für besonders schwere Steuerhinterziehung – Mindeststrafe ein Jahr, Höchstmaß 15 Jahre – wäre eine Verfahrenseinstellung nach § 153a StPO künftig ausgeschlossen. Allein 2024 wurden auf diesem Weg 10.000 von 50.000 Strafverfahren beendet, oft mit einer Geldauflage, die für Betroffene günstiger ist als ein langer Prozess. Bei der Vermögensabschöpfung wird es konkret: „Der Porsche und die Rolex sind dann erstmal weg", kündigt Finanzminister Klingbeil an – tatsächlich versteigert der Zoll seit Ende 2023 bereits Gold- und Platin-Schallplatten, die bei Bushidos Ex-Manager Arafat Abou-Chaker gepfändet wurden. Auch das Thema Cum-Cum bekommt neuen Zündstoff: Ende 2023 waren laut Bundesfinanzministerium erst 81 Fälle rechtskräftig abgeschlossen, 253 Verdachtsfälle mit einem Volumen von rund 7,3 Milliarden Euro noch in Bearbeitung – zurückgeholt wurden bislang nur etwa 226 Millionen Euro, deutlich unter einem Prozent des geschätzten Schadens. Wir sprechen außerdem über die geplante Abschaffung der Straffreiheit bei Selbstanzeigen, das neue Gemeinsame Zentrum gegen Steuer- und Finanzkriminalität nach Vorbild des Terrorismus-Abwehrzentrums, sowie den Ausbau der Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) – die bereits Mitte 2020 mit über 280.000 unbearbeiteten Verdachtsmeldungen zu kämpfen hatte und dafür scharf vom Bundesdatenschutzbeauftragten kritisiert wurde. Kontrovers wird's beim geplanten Datenanalysezentrum: KI-gestützte Risikobewertungen sollen Muster in Finanzdaten erkennen, Kritiker warnen aber vor intransparenten „Score-Werten" und einem Datensatz, der theoretisch auch gegen politische Gegner missbraucht werden könnte. Zum Abschluss ordnen wir praxisrelevante Neuerungen ein: die 15-jährige Aufbewahrungsfrist für Buchungsbelege, die Registrierkassenpflicht ab 100.000 Euro Umsatz und das elektronische Echtzeit-Meldesystem für die Umsatzsteuer, das ab 2027 auf der verpflichtenden E-Rechnung aufbaut.

Tom Fox and Ronnie Feldman host Caveni Wong on Creativity and Compliance to discuss how change management principles align with ethics and compliance by focusing on influencing behavior rather than prioritizing “defensibility” alone. Wong describes her 20-year compliance career across consulting, service providers, and in-house roles, plus change management work at Ernst & Young and IBM. The group emphasizes stakeholder involvement, relationship-building, and user experience (UX) across the full risk management lifecycle, arguing that engaging, creative, and appropriately short training and communication improve attention, retention, approachability, and trust. Wong shares examples like creative visuals, World Cup goalie analogies, and “two truths and a lie” during M&A integration to humanize compliance and build credibility with leaders. They discuss measuring effectiveness via evaluations, recall questions, engagement, increased speak-ups, and more HR/compliance inquiries, concluding that compliance success depends on not forgetting people.

We resume our 1-2-3 series by diving into 2 John! Colton takes us through 2 John and points out the intentionality of John's message in this letter; that if we love Christ than we will abide in His commandments. Embracing the Lord's conviction will lead to growth. And the truth is, that the Lord corrects us because He loves us, and wants us to live a life that is truly free, free from the bondage of sin. Because, a life fully devoted to Jesus looks different. It's one of the ways we are meant to impact the world and share the gospel! How we love God and how we love one another are the two greatest commandments, and John instructs us better on how to do that through his message in this letter. Ultimately, he and Colton encourage us to live a life fully devoted. - Key Verses // 3 John 1:4, 2 John - For Sermon Notes, the Connect Card, and our other online resources: https://linktr.ee/Celebrationchurchlive

Autorität aufbauen Shownotes Wie kannst Du Autorität aufbauen, ohne laut, künstlich oder aufdringlich zu wirken? Genau darum geht es in Episode 956 von TomsTalkTime. Viele Unternehmer, Selbstständige und Coaches kennen das Gefühl: Sie verfügen über Erfahrung, liefern gute Arbeit und wissen genau, wovon sie sprechen. Trotzdem bekommen andere Menschen mehr Aufmerksamkeit. Das kann frustrierend sein. Besonders dann, wenn lautere Wettbewerber sichtbarer sind, obwohl ihre fachliche Kompetenz nicht unbedingt größer ist. Schnell entsteht die Frage, ob man selbst aggressiver auftreten, mehr versprechen oder sich stärker in Szene setzen müsste. Die klare Antwort lautet: Nein. Du kannst Autorität aufbauen, ohne Dich zu verbiegen. Entscheidend ist nicht, wie laut Du bist, sondern wie klar, hilfreich und verlässlich Du kommunizierst. Zusammenfassung und Stichpunkte In dieser Episode erfährst Du, warum Kompetenz allein nicht ausreicht. Dein Markt muss Deine Erfahrung auch erkennen und einordnen können. Das bedeutet nicht, dass Du Dich selbst ständig als Experten bezeichnen solltest. Viel stärker wirken konkrete Beispiele, klare Einschätzungen und nachvollziehbare Empfehlungen. Klarheit wirkt stärker als Lautstärke: Menschen vertrauen nicht automatisch demjenigen, der am meisten redet. Sie vertrauen der Person, die Zusammenhänge verständlich erklärt und Orientierung gibt. Eine klare Position schafft Vertrauen: Wenn niemand genau weiß, wofür Du stehst, bleibst Du austauschbar. Eine erkennbare Haltung sorgt dafür, dass Menschen Dich einordnen und weiterempfehlen können. Erfahrung statt Eigenlob: Du kannst Deine Expertise sichtbar machen, indem Du von echten Situationen, Ergebnissen und Fehlern berichtest. So kannst Du Autorität aufbauen, ohne anzugeben. Du musst nicht jedem gefallen: Eine klare Meinung wird nicht von allen geteilt. Das ist völlig normal. Autorität entsteht nicht durch allgemeine Zustimmung, sondern durch nachvollziehbare Überzeugungen. Beständigkeit schlägt Lautstärke: Lautere Wettbewerber können kurzfristig mehr Aufmerksamkeit bekommen. Wer jedoch regelmäßig hilfreiche Inhalte veröffentlicht, baut langfristig Vertrauen auf. Eine Kernaussage bleibt im Gedächtnis: Definiere ein Thema, mit dem Dein Name verbunden werden soll. Wiederhole diese Botschaft konsequent auf Deiner Website, in sozialen Medien, in Gesprächen und in Deinem Podcast. Wenn Du Autorität aufbauen möchtest, brauchst Du deshalb keine künstliche Inszenierung. Du brauchst Klarheit, eine erkennbare Haltung und die Bereitschaft, Deine Botschaft regelmäßig zu zeigen. Vielleicht hast Du bisher geglaubt, dass Deine gute Arbeit irgendwann automatisch für sich sprechen wird. Aber Menschen können nur das wahrnehmen, was Du sichtbar machst. Das heißt, Deine Zurückhaltung ist nicht grundsätzlich das Problem. Problematisch wird sie erst dann, wenn Deine Zielgruppe nicht versteht, welchen Wert Du liefern kannst. Diese Episode hilft Dir dabei, einen Weg zu finden, der zu Deiner Persönlichkeit passt. Du musst nicht lauter werden als andere. Du darfst ruhiger, klarer und konsequenter kommunizieren. Genau so kannst Du Autorität aufbauen und endlich als die starke Stimme wahrgenommen werden, die Du fachlich längst bist.   Shownotes und Episodendetails Viele fachlich starke Unternehmer und Experten werden unterschätzt. Nicht weil ihnen Wissen oder Erfahrung fehlen, sondern weil ihre Kompetenz nach außen nicht klar genug sichtbar wird. Vielleicht kennst Du diese Situation. Du siehst Menschen in Deinem Markt, die häufiger posten, größere Versprechen machen und deutlich selbstbewusster auftreten. Gleichzeitig weißt Du, dass Deine eigene Arbeit mindestens genauso wertvoll ist. Dann entsteht schnell ein innerer Konflikt: Du möchtest Autorität aufbauen und ernst genommen werden, aber Du willst nicht zum Selbstdarsteller werden. Genau an diesem Punkt setzt diese Episode an. Autorität beginnt mit einer klaren Aussage Menschen brauchen Orientierung. Sie möchten verstehen, welches Problem Du löst, welchen Weg Du empfiehlst und warum Deine Einschätzung vertrauenswürdig ist. Wenn Du jede Aussage sofort abschwächst, wirkst Du möglicherweise unsicher, obwohl Du fachlich genau weißt, was Du tust. Natürlich musst Du nicht so tun, als hättest Du auf jede Frage eine perfekte Antwort. Du darfst aber klar sagen, was Du beobachtest und welche Handlung Du daraus ableitest. So kannst Du Autorität aufbauen, ohne dominant oder künstlich aufzutreten. Deine Position macht Dich unterscheidbar Viele Selbstständige möchten niemanden ausschließen. Deshalb formulieren sie ihre Botschaft möglichst breit. Das Ergebnis ist häufig eine Kommunikation, die zwar niemanden stört, aber auch kaum jemanden berührt. Eine klare Position bedeutet nicht, dass Du provozieren musst. Sie bedeutet, dass Menschen erkennen können, wofür Du stehst. Welche Methoden empfiehlst Du? Welche Fehler beobachtest Du immer wieder? Welche Überzeugung prägt Deine Arbeit? Wenn Du diese Fragen beantwortest, kannst Du Autorität aufbauen und gleichzeitig authentisch bleiben. Zeige, statt Dich selbst zu bewerten Du musst nicht behaupten, dass Du der beste Experte bist. Erzähle lieber, welches Problem ein Kunde hatte, welche Entscheidung getroffen wurde und welches Ergebnis daraus entstanden ist. Auch Fehler und schwierige Erfahrungen sind wertvoll. Sie zeigen, dass Du nicht nur theoretisches Wissen wiedergibst, sondern echte Situationen erlebt und daraus gelernt hast. Konkrete Geschichten wirken glaubwürdiger als große Behauptungen. Warum Wiederholung so wichtig ist Viele Unternehmer vermeiden Wiederholungen, weil sie glauben, ihre Zielgruppe kenne die Botschaft bereits. In Wahrheit sehen die meisten Menschen nur einen Bruchteil Deiner Inhalte. Wenn Du Autorität aufbauen möchtest, musst Du deshalb nicht jeden Tag eine völlig neue Idee erfinden. Du solltest Deine wichtigste Botschaft immer wieder aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln erklären. Genau dadurch entstehen Wiedererkennung und Vertrauen. Dein konkreter nächster Schritt Vervollständige diesen Satz: „Menschen kommen zu mir, wenn sie Hilfe bei … brauchen." Wähle zunächst ein klares Thema. Nutze diese Kernaussage auf Deiner Website, in Social Media, in Gesprächen, in Präsentationen und in Deinem Podcast. Bleib dabei ruhig und konsequent. Du musst Dich nicht verbiegen. Du musst nicht der Lauteste sein. Aber Du solltest Deinem Markt regelmäßig zeigen, welche Erfahrung Du hast und welche Orientierung Du geben kannst. So kannst Du Schritt für Schritt Autorität aufbauen, Vertrauen gewinnen und endlich ernst genommen werden.

In Episode 109 of the Cybersecurity Readiness Podcast Series, Dr. Dave Chatterjee is joined by Joshua Weinick, AI Automation Engineer at Blink Ops, to examine a question every security leader is now facing: what happens when the volume, velocity, and variety of cyber threats exceed what any human-staffed security operations center (SOC) can handle, and what role do humans play in a security function that increasingly depends on AI agents executing at machine speed.Drawing on his background in cybersecurity consulting and his time embedded in Fortune 500 SOCs at Ernst & Young, Josh traces the limitations of legacy SOAR automation — rigid, Python-coded pipelines that broke whenever an edge case or a system change occurred — and explains why agentic AI, unlike its predecessors, is built to absorb change rather than collapse under it. The conversation moves through the three forces breaking the traditional SOC model — overwhelming alert volume, attack speed that has compressed response windows from hours to minutes, and the cognitive toll of analyst burnout — and arrives at a reframed model Josh calls “human after the loop,” in which agentic systems take initial action within guardrails while humans review, audit, and reverse where needed.The discussion examines what this shift means for emerging security talent, walks through a real-world 3 a.m. incident scenario that illustrates why a 45-minute human approval delay is now functionally equivalent to no response at all, and lays out five concrete steps organizations can take to begin the transition responsibly. Analyzed through Dr. Chatterjee's Commitment–Preparedness–Discipline (CPD) Framework, the episode reframes the SOC transformation not as a story about replacing security professionals, but about redesigning where human judgment adds the most value once the mundane, repetitive, and time-critical work is handled by governed AI systems.To access and download the entire podcast summary with discussion highlights: https://www.dchatte.com/episode-109-agentic-ai-in-the-security-operations-center-redesigning-the-human-role-in-automated-threat-detection-and-response/Connect with Host Dr. Dave ChatterjeeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dchatte/ Website: https://dchatte.com/Books PublishedThe DeepFake ConspiracyCybersecurity Readiness: A Holistic and High-Performance ApproachArticles & Cases PublishedChatterjee, D.

Welcome to our first-ever solo episode with host Amanda Goetz! With an impressive career trajectory that spans roles at big corporations, startups, and as an author, Amanda offers invaluable insights into navigating the professional world in this big-sister-style coffee chat. She pulls from her own career path (Ernst & Young → celebrity wedding planner → startup founder → The Knot → CMO at Reale Actives) to give you real, tactical advice on annual reviews, one-on-ones, burnout, job searching, and more.  Consider this your permission slip to stop white-knuckling your career on your own.  Got a question for a future episode? Send it to @girlboss or @theamandagoetz on Instagram. 00:00 Intro 01:43 Amanda's career journey 03:46 What she'd tell herself during the hardest year of her life 04:40 Her go-to career book recommendation 05:12 How to make the most of one-on-ones with your manager 06:56 Balancing your own opinions with your team's ideas as a leader 10:04 Returning to work after a year-long maternity leave 11:22 How to prepare for your annual review 14:56 Redesigning your career mid-life 17:38 How to know when it's time to leave a job 20:25 Falling back in love with your work 22:51 How to work with someone you don't get along with 24:37 Staying organized (and sane) as a business owner 26:41 Staying motivated during a tough job search 27:36 Managing email and outreach anxiety 28:56 Getting your manager to notice how much you're doing 30:00 Balancing all the hats marketers have to wear 31:31 Outro Key Takeaways Use the "start, stop, continue" framework in every one-on-one—it turns feedback into something structured, not confrontational. Build a weekly "operating rhythm," so your team always knows when to bring you ideas. Send a "managing up Monday" email each week: top wins, focus areas, and shout-outs. Visibility trumps ability. Before an annual review, translate your work into business terms your boss can repeat to their boss. Career changes don't need to be justified in hindsight—just take the next step with the best info you have. Confront conflict directly instead of triangulating through other people. "Focus and finish": pick two priorities a day instead of running an endless to-do list. Networking should start long before you need it—keep a running list of contacts and stay in touchGUEST LINKS Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theamandagoetz/ Book: https://bookshop.org/a/116169/9781464233258  https://www.amandagoetz.com/  FOLLOW THE PODCAST IG: https://www.instagram.com/girlboss/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@girlboss  Amanda Goetz: https://www.instagram.com/theamandagoetz/  https://girlboss.com/pages/ambition-2-0-podcast  SIGN UP  Subscribe to the Girlboss Daily newsletter: https://newsletter.girlboss.com/   For all other Girlboss links: https://linkin.bio/girlboss/  ABOUT AMBITION 2.0  Powered by Girlboss, Ambition 2.0 is a podcast where we'll be exploring what it really means to "have it all" in work, family, identity, and self… and if it's actually worth it.

Go to: riseupkings.com/ffn---------What if becoming a better father has less to do with learning more parenting techniques and more to do with becoming a man who is fully alive?Zac Ernst is a husband of 22 years, father of two teenagers, entrepreneur, co-founder of ActivityPay, and founder of Pursuit, a men's movement helping men come fully alive through community, fitness, spiritual formation, and adventure. Living in Seal Beach, California, Zac has built his life around one central conviction: the greatest adventure isn't paddling to Catalina or riding bicycles down the California coast—it's becoming the husband and father God created you to be.In this conversation, Ned sits down with Zac Ernst to explore what it looks like to intentionally pursue God, your wife, your children, and your own formation as a man. From the opening minutes discussing dreams and how God still speaks today, the conversation quickly moves into entrepreneurship, margin, fatherhood, adventure, raising teenagers, discipling children, and the loneliness epidemic facing modern men.Zac shares how building businesses wasn't primarily about money—it was about creating enough freedom to be present at every game, school event, and important moment in his children's lives. He explains the family values acronym “GraceFi,” why adventure slows time down with kids, and why fathers should become students of their children's hearts instead of trying to make them into younger versions of themselves.One of the most powerful moments comes when Zac explains the transition every Christian parent eventually faces: moving from telling children about Jesus to revealing Jesus through a life of answered prayer, faithful obedience, and authentic dependence on God.The conversation concludes with Zac sharing the heart behind Pursuit—a nationwide movement helping men fight isolation through community, physical challenge, spiritual growth, and honest relationships.This episode is packed with practical wisdom for fathers who want to raise resilient kids, build intentional families, and become the kind of men whose lives point people toward Jesus.5 Questions This Episode AnswersHow do fathers build deeper relationships with teenage children?How do I help my kids develop their own faith instead of simply borrowing mine?What should fathers do when their kids don't enjoy the same interests they do?How can entrepreneurship create more freedom for family life?How do Christian men build authentic friendships with other men?---------Check out Zac's Christian men's fitness and fellowship program Pursuit:www.joinpursuit.coJoin a nationwide 90-Day Challenge with Pursuit in August 2026 - or anytime!Pursuit 90 Day Challenge---------The Dream Journal App---------Check Out the Program Talked About: Genesis by Rise Up KingsThis episode is sponsored by Genesis - a Rite of Passage by Rise Up KingsOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?www.adventureoffatherhood.comwww.rebelandcreate.comEach week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

In this episode we speak with Alon Goren from UC San Diego about his work at the intersection of genomic technology development and chromatin biology. We discuss how his lab studies how the epigenome is regulated, how disruption of that regulation contributes to disease, and how technology can be improved to make results more robust and reproducible. We talk about his early interest in biology, how that developed through medical research training, and how a molecular biology lab shaped the direction of his career. He explains how curiosity about how cells and organisms work led him toward genomics and chromatin research. We then discuss several methods from his career, including early direct sequencing approaches for small amounts of DNA and RNA, ChIP-based methods for chromatin regulators, and work on improving ChIP-seq workflows. He explains why antibody choice matters, why monoclonal antibodies can improve reproducibility, and how automation helped scale the process. We also cover his work on spike-in normalization, including the risks of using exogenous chromatin incorrectly and the need for better safeguards in genome-wide comparisons. He describes a newer approach that uses two spike-ins to provide multiple checks on normalization. Finally, we discuss his work on short tandem repeats, zebrafish heart regeneration, and SIRT6-related polymerase pausing, as well as a newer platform that converts molecular interactions into sequencing-readable barcodes. He closes by stressing the importance of validation, careful protocol design, and methods that can be used reliably by multiple people.

Every marketer and business leader is talking about AI right now, but many companies are stuck. They've run the pilots, tried the tools and still can't turn any of it into real results.  In this episode, Tessa Burg talks with Dhiraj Rajaram, Founder and CEO of Mu Sigma, about why that gap between AI hype and AI impact exists. And what it actually takes to close it. Dhiraj breaks down some big ideas in an easy-to-follow—and very entertaining—way, like why every new technology creates a bubble and why AI is no different. He explains why most companies are trying to bolt AI onto old ways of working rather than rethink how decisions are made.  If you've ever wondered why your company's AI investment has not paid off the way you had hoped, this conversation will give you a new way to think about the problem. You'll walk away with practical language and a framework you can bring back to your own team along with a clearer picture of what needs to change before any new technology can really move the needle.  Leader Generation is hosted by Tessa Burg and brought to you by Mod Op. About Dhiraj Rajaram: As Founder, Chairman and CEO of Mu Sigma, Dhiraj Rajaram built one of India's first profitable unicorns. He pioneered decision sciences, digitizing management consulting by mapping decision and perception traces—visionary concepts now critical in an agentic, AI-driven corporate world.

Lauren Wang is the CEO and founder of period-product brand The Flex Company. Before even graduating college, Wang held several positions. At just age 15, she freelanced as an HTML website builder. Then during college, she took classes at night while working for IBM and Coca-Cola on their respective marketing teams. A couple years after graduating college, she moved to San Francisco to work in tech at companies such as Autodesk and Upwork. In 2013, after many years of struggling to find period products that worked for her, Wang came up with her initial idea for a better period product. She spent the next year researching the menstrual-hygiene industry, and in 2015, she quit her corporate job to found Flex. In October of 2016, the company began shipping its first product: the Flex Disc. As the company continued to grow, it released its Flex Cup product line and expanded into new categories, and Wang was named an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year for the Los Angeles region in 2023.

Executive Summary AI strategic thinking for women executives is no longer optional — it's the dividing line between leaders who get exposed and those who get elevated. Executive coach Sabrina Braham and author Barry O'Reilly reveal how to build your judgment system, accelerate decisions, and think strategically at the highest level. Quick Takeaways Barry O'Reilly's defining insight: "AI is not going to replace leaders — it's going to expose them." Most executives have never documented their judgment system — and AI makes this gap impossible to hide. Decision velocity + decision advantage are the two metrics separating leaders who accelerate from those who stall. Misty Schaefer, VP at American Airlines, uses AI voice notes and scenario planning for orders-of-magnitude better decisions. The biggest missed opportunity in AI leadership is not learning together — yet the fastest learners do exactly that. There's a line on the back of Barry O'Reilly's new book that every woman executive needs to sit with: "AI is not going to replace leaders. It's going to expose them." AI strategic thinking for women executives is no longer a competitive edge — it's fast becoming the baseline expectation at the director, VP, and C-suite level. I'm Sabrina Braham, executive leadership coach (MA, MFT, PCC) with 30+ years of experience, and host of the Women's Leadership Success Podcast — top 1.5% globally with almost 900,000 downloads. My clients include leaders at Stanford University, Ernst & Young, and Autodesk. And what I see in my coaching practice right now is a clear divide emerging: women executives who are building AI-enhanced judgment, and those who are still relying on invisible, inarticulate intuition they've never made explicit. AI is about to make that gap impossible to hide. This is Part 2 of my conversation with Barry O'Reilly — author of Artificial Organizations: Build Better Judgment, Speed, and Results with Machine and Human Intelligence, keynote speaker at Gartner's CFO Conference, and one of the most sought-after AI leadership advisors in the world. In Part 1, we covered how women leaders can use AI to build personal career confidence and grow into bigger roles. Here, we go deeper — into the strategic leadership capabilities that will define who rises at the executive level in 2026 and beyond. New research from Chief and The Harris Poll (2026) confirms that 85% of senior women leaders are now active players in their organization's AI strategy — and 68% are focused on using AI to amplify human talent, not replace it. The leaders pulling ahead are those who've moved beyond productivity tools into something more fundamental: AI-enhanced judgment systems. The Uncomfortable Truth: AI Will Expose Leaders Without a Judgment System When Barry walks into executive rooms around the world, he asks a deceptively simple question: "Show me your system for making this decision." The silence that follows is telling. "Often, a lot of the time, they just don't have a system," he explains. "They've never systematically written down all the steps they're going to go through to make an actual decision." For most leaders, the judgment system — the internal algorithm for weighing options, prioritizing inputs, and reaching decisions — has never been made explicit. It works. But it has four critical limitations: It's not visible — others can't observe or learn from it. It's not repeatable — it can't be consistently applied by or handed off to others. It's not challengeable — if it's in your head, no one can push back on its blind spots. It's not improvable — you can't deliberately tune what you can't see. In my 30+ years of executive coaching, this is one of the most consistent patterns I see in women leaders who are passed over for promotion despite exceptional performance: their judgment is excellent — but it's invisible. They can't teach it, transfer it, or demonstrate it in the way boards and senior leaders need to see. AI strategic thinking for women executives forces this reckoning, and the leaders who embrace it rather than resist it will define the next decade of leadership. Here's what my Leading Before You're Ready playbook addresses directly: building the judgment, presence, and strategic clarity that precedes you into every room — before you hold the formal title. AI doesn't change that mission. It accelerates it. What Is a Judgment System — and Do You Have One? A judgment system is the explicit process and criteria you use to make leadership decisions: the information you seek first, the variables you weigh, the sequence you follow, and the principles that guide your final choice. For most leaders, this system exists — but it lives entirely in their heads, accumulated through years of experience and pattern recognition. It works. But it has critical limitations that AI strategic thinking for women executives can directly address. The Judgment System Exercise Barry Uses With Executive Teams Here's the exercise Barry runs at the opening of his executive engagements — and one I now recommend for every leader I coach: Name a key decision coming up for your team. Be specific: a resource allocation decision, a product investment, a market expansion choice. Draw out your judgment system for making that decision. What information do you look for first? What criteria matter most? What's your sequence of evaluation? What would make you say yes — or no? Share your judgment system with your peers. This is where the transformation happens. A VP of Marketing and a VP of Finance, both making the same type of decision, suddenly realize they weight customer behavior and market size differently — and neither has ever made that explicit in shared decision-making. Identify the gaps. Where is your information current and reliable? Where is it outdated, incomplete, or missing entirely? What would better information change? "Suddenly you have groups of people sitting around going, 'I've never done this before,'" Barry explains. "And they're right. Most executive teams have never made their collective judgment infrastructure explicit." From a coaching perspective, I want to highlight what this exercise does beyond improving decision quality: when you can articulate how you make decisions — not just what decisions you make — you demonstrate the executive presence that earns trust and bigger responsibilities. This is exactly what I teach in the Leading Before You're Ready playbook. Judgment Infrastructure: The Data Ecosystem That Feeds Your Decisions Once leaders map their judgment systems, Barry introduces a second connected concept: judgment infrastructure — the data ecosystem that feeds your decision-making algorithm. Barry asks leaders: "Across your company, how are you getting the information you need to run your judgment system?" The answers reveal how fragile most leadership data environments actually are. "I have a spreadsheet I get once a month." "Our customer records are three months out of date." "I usually get that information from a conversation with someone else, so it depends on who I ask." The principle is clear: the output of any system is determined by the quality of its inputs. Poor-quality, delayed, or incomplete information fed into even an excellent judgment system produces poor decisions. For women executives in tech leading AI-adjacent organizations, understanding how to design and govern your information ecosystem — not just receive reports — is a defining capability for 2026. Decision Velocity + Decision Advantage: The Two Metrics That Define Executive Performance Barry's work with high-performing organizations has surfaced two metrics that consistently predict which leaders — and companies — pull ahead: Decision velocity: How fast can you move from problem identification to a well-reasoned decision? Not impulsive speed — calibrated speed supported by quality process. Decision advantage: How current, accurate, and comprehensive is the information available to you when you need to decide? Real-time — or three months stale? "That is how companies, startups, businesses power ahead," Barry explains. "They learn faster, they make decisions at a high velocity, and the information to support those decisions is to hand in real time."   AI dramatically accelerates both metrics. A meeting co-pilot that captures and synthesizes every conversation means you're never walking into a decision without full context. Barry describes his own routine: "I run a process either the day before, the morning of, or even five minutes before I meet someone. It runs all the last conversations we've had against my judgment system for the meeting I'm about to have." He shows up to every conversation with full context, clear priorities, and the calm that comes from genuine preparation. That calm is not incidental. As I always tell the executives I coach: your cognitive and emotional state in high-stakes situations is a performance variable. Anything that reduces cognitive load — like AI capturing your meeting context — directly improves your effectiveness in those moments. AI strategic thinking for women executives isn't just a professional tool. It's a confidence tool. Case Study: How Misty Schaefer Uses AI to Lead American Airlines Strategically The most vivid example Barry shared of AI strategic thinking in action involves Misty Schaefer Sern, VP of Consumer Technology at American Airlines — responsible for AA.com, the mobile app, and every digital touch point the world's largest airline uses to serve customers. Misty's natural trait: she has her best ideas on the move — walking the terminal, talking to ground staff, observing what's happening at the gate. The traditional problem: those ideas used to evaporate between the inspiration and the desk. ...

Leading Without a Title: Formal authority is not a prerequisite for impact; some of the most profound leadership occurs when individuals step forward to influence and lift others without holding an official calling or position. Emotional Regulation: Effective leaders act as thermostats rather than thermometers. They actively set the emotional temperature and bring stability to a room during high-stress situations instead of merely reacting to the environment. Gratitude as a Multiplier: Practicing deliberate gratitude serves as a cognitive interrupter that shifts a leader's mindset from defensive, reactionary conflict to collaborative, executive problem-solving. Extending Trust: While being trustworthy is a basic requirement, exceptional leadership requires actively extending trust to others, which fosters their potential and builds long-term confidence. Intentional Time Investment: Human life consists of a finite number of seconds. Leaders must prioritize their weekly focus around essential tasks and specific individuals to build deep, lasting connections. Leadership Applications Implementing the 5×4 Method: Latter-day Saint leaders can organize their weekly schedules by identifying five critical objectives and four specific people to intentionally reach out to and lift up. Expressing Written Appreciation: Ward and stake leaders can cultivate a supportive culture by sending regular, handwritten notes of gratitude to members, validating their voluntary service and building deep organizational trust.
