Podcasts about EVP

Our guest this week is an industry powerhouse with a lengthy list of accomplishments, with titles including (SVP, CEO, EVP, CMO, GM), at some incredible companies over the last 25 years.  Getting his degree from UCI and a Masters at USC Marshall School of business, it makes total sense he has applied those skills to the corporate world which pay dividends on his success.  He has strong relationships with Bob McKnight and Danny Kwok and got straight to work at Quiksilver where he honed his skills as Director of Marketing and later as SVP Sales Marketing Operations.  He was President and Co-Founder of SALT Optics and also helped numerous companies in developing strategic planning in Sales, Marketing, and business management/finance.  We welcome to the show our friend who has the most acronyms of anyone we know, Mr. Taylor “TAY“ Whisenand.

"What is a microgrid?...There's a lot of challenges that folks are dealing with around the grid infrastructure, with weather related challenges and load growth and other elements. And so what a microgrid does is help those customers become not only consumers of energy, but also producers of energy. So we like to call that a prosumer….So a microgrid helps to create that bridge between the building and the big grid…So if the grid's no longer there (e.g., an outage), they can act independently of the grid. It also helps with deploying more renewables on their sites, as well as really energy costs." Jana Gerber on Electric Ladies Podcast Our hearts go out to the many people who are out of power in the current massive winter storm. We wish they had access to a microgrid to give them power when the grid is down, like during this ferocious storm. How does a microgrid work? Can you get one for your home? Listen to Jana Gerber, President of Microgrids at Schneider Electric in this helpful and engaging conversation with Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson, live at the Schneider Electric U.S. Innovation Summit a couple of months ago. They also share insightful career advice. You'll hear about: What a microgrid is, how it works and how to use it. How microgrids can serve communities in disaster situations – and are doing so in real time. How facilities as different as military bases to airports to EV charging are using microgrids to keep the power on. How microgrids are powered by renewables and batteries…and so much more Plus, insightful career advice, such as… "I think having purpose in what we do really drives that passion. And so continue to find what your North star is and where your passion aligns with that and keep going at it. So I think that's the important thing….I've had multiple different roles across different elements of the (SE) business and really getting to understand the perspectives and everybody wants to provide value and what they're doing. And so helping to find ways that you can pull folks in to help them bring their value to your customers or through other means is really critical."

Mark Wopata, Chief Data Officer and EVP of Finance at EquipmentShare (EQPT), which just went public on Nasdaq on Friday. The company is a vertically integrated construction company that is driving “productivity, safety, and efficiency.” It rents equipment for construction projects but also has a tech platform – Mark argues that the company should be viewed more as a tech IPO than a cyclical. “We serve the biggest and largest customers and jobsites in the world,” he says, with visibility into the trillions of dollars.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

While at CIBC's Annual Institutional Investor Conference in Whistler, we had the exciting opportunity to host Grant Isaac of Cameco for this Special Edition COBT. Grant serves as President and Chief Operating Officer of Cameco and has held several roles over his 16-plus years with the company, including EVP & CFO and SVP of Corporate Services. In his current role, he is responsible for all Cameco operations, exploration, and corporate development, as well as the company's commercial and financial strategy. Grant earned a Ph.D. from the London School of Economics and previously served as a business professor at the University of Saskatchewan. We were delighted to sit down with Grant to explore the latest developments in nuclear energy. In our discussion, Grant outlines Cameco's integrated nuclear platform and strategy, with vertical integration as a way to help “build their own demand,” as each reactor build creates 80-100 years of downstream recurring fuel and services demand. We explore how nuclear has shifted from “maybe/what if” to “must do it now,” what drives ordering momentum, and the industry's push to turn nuclear from a project into a product through standardization, sequencing, and simplification. Grant discusses how investors are increasingly underwriting Cameco as a “nuclear super-major” with scarce, strategic assets, and how the Westinghouse acquisition and partnership with Brookfield broadened the shareholder base and improved visibility into future demand. We touch on supply-chain pinch points across mining, conversion, enrichment, and fabrication, the post-Russia fuel-cycle reset, and why uranium is uniquely constrained by geology and can't be “fixed” with industrial policy. Grant explains the Global Laser Enrichment (GLE) project, the role of public-private partnerships in capital-intensive nuclear projects, and Ontario as a positive case study for government involvement. Grant also shares why traditional NPV frameworks tend to undervalue nuclear assets, noting that governments and sponsors instead focus on payback math over 80–100-year asset lives, the significant economic multipliers from large-scale nuclear builds, and the “cluster effects” that attract long-term industry, jobs, and investment, making the case for nuclear as a generational, nation-building infrastructure investment. We also cover evolving investor frameworks and valuation metrics, expectations for consolidation in the nuclear sector, his outlook for 2026, the future of uranium supply, and more. It was an insightful conversation. In other nuclear news, the World Nuclear Association published a World Nuclear Outlook Report on Tuesday, January 20 (linked here), which provides the most comprehensive assessment to date of global nuclear energy development, assessing national targets for nuclear capacity against the global goal to triple nuclear capacity by 2050. We hope you enjoy the discussion with Grant as much as we did. Our best to you all!

In this episode of Unspoken Security, host AJ Nash sits down with Eric Yunag, EVP of Product and Services at Convergint. They explore how security integration is changing as organizations face a fast-moving threat landscape and rising expectations from leaders and regulators. Eric explains why today's environment demands a new approach—one that connects hardware, software, and services in a more dynamic, real-time ecosystem.Eric shares how integrators help companies navigate not just the technical, but also the legal and operational complexity of modern security. He describes how shifting to cloud platforms, unifying physical and digital identities, and balancing privacy with business outcomes all add new layers of challenge. The conversation highlights the growing use of AI and “visual intelligence”—using camera data for both security and business insight—as organizations look to do more with their investments.Throughout the discussion, Eric makes the case for trusted, neutral advisors who help organizations build smarter, more connected security systems. He shows how today's integrators are positioned to guide clients through tough choices, benchmark best practices, and unlock value that goes far beyond traditional security.Send us a textSupport the show

Topics:“99% Right Is 100% Wrong” MindsetMaximizing Outcomes in a Sale ProcessPost-Close Seller Regrets...and so much more.Top TakeawaysMake your first deals your brand. Matt emphasizes that early deals define how the market sees you and become proof of your standards and the caliber of clients you can win. That's why it pays to set a clear bar for what you'll take on: deal quality, counterparty strength, and your ability to run a clean process.Build an advisory board with a clear purpose. Matt notes that advisory boards only create value when you're clear on what you want from them At Edgeview, advisors were brought in for credibility, introductions, and high-level guidance. That clarity kept the relationship lightweight and efficient. Decide early whether you need a stamp-of-approval and network board with periodic check-ins or an operator board that requires heavy preparation and greater accountability.Private business owners: not every great outcome is a sale. The best path forward might be a recap, a minority partner, or a keep-and-grow strategy with the right buyer. Before going to market, owners should align on liquidity needs, legacy goals, leadership succession, and employee impact. That clarity reframes value from price alone to after-tax outcomes and long-term fit.Mid-level bankers: don't get stuck as “the execution person.” If you don't build a revenue lane, you'll never leave the trenches. The bankers who create real leverage carve out a clear wedge—a vertical, sponsor set, buyer niche, or unique POV—and spend real time developing deal flow and ideas, not just executing.About Matt SalisburyMatt Salisbury has built, scaled, and exited two successful investment banking firms over a 25+ year career, advising on 100+ M&A and strategic transactions primarily for private business owners. Matt launched EVP Strategic Advisors to focus on helping entrepreneurs navigate complex strategic decisions with clarity and confidence.About EVP Strategic AdvisorsEVP Strategic Advisors is a boutique advisory firm dedicated exclusively to privately held and family-owned businesses. Rather than pushing owners toward a transaction, EVP helps founders clarify their long-term goals, evaluate strategic options, and maximize outcomes across growth, liquidity, and legacy.

Send us a text This episode explores the unsettling history of animal spectacle through Terrible Ted the wrestling bear, the Cashmere Goat Baseball Club, and the infamous Diving Horse. These attractions blurred the line between circus entertainment, sideshow novelty, and normalized cruelty hidden behind applause. From staged danger and forced comedy to breathtaking stunts that masked suffering, each story reveals how animals were transformed into props for mass entertainment. Using historical context and cultural analysis, this episode examines how spectacle reshaped public morality and desensitized audiences. The question remains whether these acts were harmless fun or an early warning about what entertainment culture was willing to excuse. Watch the video version here: https://youtube.com/live/V8Bm_PZOcgMDon't forget, you can watch us live on Tuesday nights at 8PM CST - U.S. on YouTube and Facebook!

Retail Media Networks are generating billions of dollars, but not all brands benefiting from them equally. Agility requires more than just shifting budgets to the newest channel; it demands a fundamental rethinking of how internal teams collaborate and how technology is applied to the unique environment of retail. Today, we're going to talk about the nuanced reality of Retail Media Networks. They represent one of the biggest shifts in marketing, but many brands are finding that the playbook from traditional digital advertising doesn't quite translate. We'll explore why simply plugging in programmatic tools isn't the silver bullet it's promised to be, how to navigate the internal budget battles between trade and media teams, and what it really takes for AI to deliver on its potential in a retail context. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Dave Simon, President of In-Store Marketplace at ISM.

Send us a textIn 1938, a radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds blurred the line between fiction and reality, triggering one of the most infamous moments in media history. Directed by Orson Welles, the program used simulated news bulletins to portray a Martian invasion unfolding across the United States. Listeners tuning in late heard urgent reports, military responses, and escalating destruction that sounded terrifyingly real. Newspapers later claimed mass panic and nationwide hysteria, but how much of that story actually holds up under scrutiny. This episode examines the broadcast, the public reaction, and what the event reveals about fear, trust, and the power of media.Watch the video version here: https://youtube.com/live/zlNHpUteMZgDon't forget, you can watch us live on Tuesday nights at 8PM CST - U.S. on YouTube and Facebook!

Banks love to claim they are high-tech and high-touch. The truth is, most are neither, and the gap between what institutions promise and what customers experience is widening fast. It is costing banks billions in lost trust, slower growth, and missed opportunities, especially as expectations accelerate across the rest of people's financial lives. At Fintech NerdCon in Miami, I sat down with two leaders who are actually closing that gap. Siya Vansia, Chief Brand and Innovation Officer at ConnectOne Bank, and Suzan Chaffin, EVP of Solutions at LoanPro, are showing what modern banking looks like when technology, culture, and leadership come together with clarity and purpose. Our Banking Transformed conversation dives into the real work behind transformation. Not the marketing language, but the decisions, processes, and organizational alignment needed to deliver both speed and empathy. These leaders expose why retrofitting new technology onto old processes always fails, and how banks can rebuild for a future where high-tech and high-touch finally work together. If your institution is trying to modernize, improve experience, or break free from legacy constraints, this discussion offers a practical look at what it takes to move faster and deliver better value today.

That viral claim about "The 12 Days of Christmas" being a secret Catholic catechism turns out to be the perfect example of how our brains can trick us into seeing faith where none was planted. From a $28,000 grilled cheese sandwich bearing the Virgin Mary's face to ghost hunters hearing spirit voices in radio static, we're wired to find meaningful patterns everywhere — even when those patterns don't exist.
