Margery Kraus is the Founder and Executive Chairman of APCO Worldwide, a company she started in 1984 as a small subsidiary of a Washington, D.C. law firm and built into a global consultancy with roughly 1,200 people across 35 locations.Her story, though, starts much earlier. The child of immigrants whose family fled Nazi Europe, passed through Cuba and eventually rebuilt their lives in America, Margery grew up around resilience, risk and starting again.We talk about how that shaped the entrepreneur she became, why she refused to listen when people told her “you can't do that,” and what it was really like building a global company while raising a family.We also get into the 2004 management buyout that helped make APCO one of the world's largest majority women-owned consulting firms, how you step back from leading a company you built without really letting go, and what four decades advising some of the world's most influential leaders have taught her about who thrives under pressure and who doesn't.Recorded in Dalian, China, during the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting of the New Champions, we also look at the world right now: China's place in the global economy, shifting trade relationships and what the rest of the world may be getting wrong about this moment.And then there's AI. Margery says it's the thing that keeps her up at night. For someone who has built a career and a business around human trust, judgment and relationships, I wanted to know why.A fascinating conversation with someone who has spent more than 40 years building, adapting and refusing to stand still.Special thanks to the World Economic Forum for bringing us together in Dalian.

Mark Cruise, Executive Chairman of BP Silver Corp. (TSX.V: BPAG) (OTCQB: BPSCF), joins me for a big picture overview of the value proposition in the Company, why he joined the board and believes in the team, why he is bullish on discoveries being made in Bolivia as an emerging jurisdiction, the potential he sees across multiple targets at the Cosuño Silver Project, and then we dive into an updated exploration strategy for 2026.   The 2,000-meter Phase 2 drill program is well underway at Cosuño, and is just the first part of a broader ~8,000 m diamond drilling campaign anticipated for 2026.   The Phase 2 drill program is designed to test the broader scale potential of the Cosuño lithocap-hosted hydrothermal system and build on the positive results of the Company's Phase 1 drill program; and will comprise approximately 20 to 24 diamond drill holes. The first drill hole is currently following up on high-grade silver mineralization intersected at the Pocañita Chica target, where discovery drilling returned 5 m grading 600.40 g/t silver, including 1 m grading 1,655 g/t silver.   We then discuss the series of other exploration workstreams that will be commencing over the next couple months, such as: the MAG Survey, IP Survey, more mapping and sampling. Together, these datasets are expected to improve significantly the Company's understanding of the geometry, continuity, scale, and tenor of the vein and breccia systems across Cosuño.   Once this new data gets incorporated into the geological model, then it will lead into prioritizing the targets for the 6,000-meter Phase 3 drill program later this year. Tim also highlighted that Pocañita Grande will be getting its maiden drilling during the Phase 3 program, now that they have been developing roads and site access to this important target.   Click here to follow the latest news from BP Silver Corp       For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Arturo Préstamo Elizondo, Executive Chairman and CEO of Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. (TSX.V: SCZ) (NASDAQ: SCZM) (FSE: 1SZ), joins us for a review of the Q2 2026 production and operational results across their portfolio of 4 producing silver-zinc mines and ore feed sourcing business in Bolivia and Mexico. We also review a few of the key growth initiatives that the company has slated for 2026 across multiple projects.   Q2 2026 Production Highlights   Primary Production Metrics:   Silver: 1,573,100 ounces Zinc: 23,240 tonnes Lead: 3,165 tonnes Copper: 337 tonnes   Supplemental Production Metrics:   Silver Equivalent Production: 2,814,489 silver equivalent ounces Zinc Equivalent Production: 59,680 zinc equivalent tonnes   Consolidated silver production increased 17% to 1,573,100 ounces in Q2 2026 from 1,341,499 ounces in Q1 2026, with quarter-over-quarter increases at all five operations. Lead production increased 18% to 3,165 tonnes and copper production increased 9% to 337 tonnes. Compared with Q2 2025, consolidated silver production increased 11%, and zinc production increased 10%, on 9% higher consolidated tonnes milled.   The improvement was driven primarily by higher processed volumes, with consolidated tonnes milled increasing 7% to 521,956 tonnes, together with higher silver head grades at Bolivar and Porco and a marked improvement in silver recovery at Zimapan.   At Bolivar silver production increased 32% quarter-over-quarter to 343,522 ounces, driven by ongoing recovery efforts in the areas affected by the localized flooding event that occurred in May 2025. San Lucas processed 22% more ore than in the prior quarter. Consolidated zinc production increased 7% to 23,240 tonnes, driven principally by higher throughput, which more than offset lower zinc grades at Bolivar and Porco. Porco delivered higher silver and zinc production, driven by stronger silver grades and improved metal recoveries, while Caballo Blanco continued to make steady, meaningful contributions.   At Zimapan, operations rebounded from the temporary constraints experienced during the first quarter, including limited ventilation in the higher-grade zones at Level 960 due to a contractor delay in completing the ventilation Robbins incline shaft, as well as repeated power interruptions caused by the local service provider's maintenance of the power grid. As a result, metal recoveries improved across all four payable metals.   Next we transitioned to future growth, where the operations team is advancing their silver-dominant Soracaya mine towards development and near-term production. There is already a decline ramp into this project with initial stope access in 2 areas, and the plan once the permit is received in Q3 is to get this mine into initial ramp-up production by Q4 of 2026.   Wrapping up, we discussed the potential for future accretive acquisitions in the Americas.  The board and management team are open to a currently producing mine or development-stage underground mining assets, but only if the acquisition would be accretive for shareholders and if their team can unlock value in these acquired assets.     If you have any follow up questions for Arturo regarding Santacruz Silver, then please email those to us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Santacruz Silver at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Santacruz Silver   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

In this episode we speak to Harry Anagnostaras-Adams, Founder and Executive Chairman of KEFI Gold and Copper. Harry has spent more than four decades in the mining industry, building companies and advancing projects across Australia, the Middle East and Africa. With KEFI, he is now developing the Tulu Kapi Gold Project in Ethiopia and maintaining exposure to Saudi Arabia's rapidly growing mining sector.   Harry offers a unique perspective on financing projects in emerging jurisdictions, navigating geopolitical challenges and creating long-term value. We also explore his remarkable journey, the lessons learned from operating across multiple continents, and his outlook for KEFI and the wider mining industry. KEY TAKEAWAYS Building direct, long-term relationships and being present in the country are essential for navigating local political, regulatory, and security challenges. By following specific geological formations—such as VMS deposits and greenstone belts—companies can unlock massive, previously untapped mineral potential. Innovative financing structures—such as combining project debt, royalties, and preference shares—allow major developments to proceed while keeping equity dilution remarkably low. Maintaining strict ethical standards and transparency ensures resilience against geopolitical instability, regulatory hurdles, and localised conflicts. BEST MOMENTS "The hallmark of our decision and style was that we would move over to that part of the world, roll up our sleeves, and get amongst it on the ground." "When you've got one or two [geologists] that have found a number of deposits in their lifetime, you know you've got a precious person." "Never do anything that can compromise you... if you've never been compromised, there's nothing to worry about. You can always lie straight in bed and have a good night's sleep." "In the first ten years of KEFI's existence, we made discoveries, and then we literally stopped exploration. And now that we're in a position to launch development, we're restarting."

The firm has incubated, built, and acquired asset management talent and firms to scale across strategy and geography into the global platform that it is today.Paul and I had a fascinating conversation about the business of asset management and why Sagard exists to serve entrepreneurs around the world. We covered:Sagard's entrepreneurial DNA.What does it mean to build a business that builds businesses?Being the “next first generation.”How Sagard approaches the buy, build, partner framework of asset management businesses.How Sagard has expanded its platform across asset classes and strategies.How to build a global, multi-strategy asset management brand.Why specialization matters in asset management.How to approach the wealth channel.The decentralized pod shop model.The future of private markets.BioPaul Desmarais III is the Chairman and CEO of Sagard, an alternative asset management firm active in venture capital, private equity, credit, and real estate.Paul has led Sagard since 2016, along with a handful of close partners bound by a common vision: partnering with entrepreneurs to catalyze transformation in our investments and communities.

Artificial intelligence is often discussed through models and GPUs. This episode looks beneath that surface, at the power delivery and networking required to make AI work at scale.Host Sriram Viswanathan speaks with Rajiv Khemani, a serial deep tech entrepreneur whose career has tracked several major infrastructure cycles: internet networking, cloud switching, blockchain compute and now AI networking. Khemani reflects on his early work at NetBoost and Intel, his operating role at Cavium, and the founding of Innovium, which Marvell agreed to acquire for $1.1 billion in 2021. He also explains how work on low-power blockchain silicon led his team toward the infrastructure demands created by generative AI.The discussion examines why incumbents often overlook emerging markets, why purpose-built hardware can outperform systems inherited from an earlier technology cycle, and how founders decide whether to keep financing a company or sell while the outcome remains attractive. Khemani describes the concentration risk of selling to a small number of hyperscalers, the fragility of semiconductor supply chains, and why leading-edge chip development now demands much larger balance sheets.The conversation then turns to AI's emerging bottlenecks. Large models require many accelerators to operate as one computer, making low-latency scale-up and scale-out networks central to performance. The episode explores heterogeneous compute, open networking standards, memory scarcity, AI's growing electricity demand, and the competition between AI and Bitcoin mining for energy. Speaker Profiles and LinksSriram Viswanathan: Founding Managing Partner, Celesta Capital — https://www.linkedin.com/in/onesriram/ Rajiv Khemani: Co-founder and Executive Chairman, Upscale AI; deep-tech entrepreneur and IIT Delhi alumnus LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajivkhemani/ Profile and contribution to the IIT, Delhi, Yardi School of Artificial Intelligence : https://scai.iitd.ac.in/rajiv-khemani References Mentioned and Further ReadingUpscale AI : https://upscaleai.com/ Upscale AI Launch Announcement : https://upscaleai.com/press-release/ Velaura AI : https://velaura.ai/ Acquisition of Innovium and cloud data-centre switching rationale, Marvell: https://www.marvell.com/company/newsroom/marvell-to-acquire-innovium-accelerates-cloud-growth-with-expanded-ethernet-switching-portfolio.html Cavium combination and infrastructure semiconductor strategy, Marvell:  https://www.marvell.com/company/newsroom/marvell-and-cavium-to-combine-creating-an-infrastructure-solutions-powerhouse.html Energy and AI, International Energy Agency: https://www.iea.org/reports/energy-and-aiEnergy demand from AI, International Energy Agency: https://www.iea.org/reports/energy-and-ai/energy-demand-from-ai Tokenisation in the context of money and other assets, Bank for International Settlements : https://www.bis.org/cpmi/publ/d225.pdf Leveraging tokenisation for payments and financial transactions, Bank for International Settlements : https://www.bis.org/publ/othp92.pdf Collective communication for clusters exceeding 100,000 GPUs, Meta researchers : https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.20171 Load balancing for AI training workloads, UC Berkeley researchers : https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.21372 Reliability in large-scale machine-learning clusters : https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.21680 Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System : https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf Timestamps:[Timestamp] Chapter Title00:00 - Highlights and welcome02:28 - From IIT Delhi to Silicon Valley07:50 - Building Through Major Technology Waves10:19 - Why Incumbents Miss Emerging Markets And Where Start-Ups Win12:47 - Building Innovium for the Cloud19:37 - Supply Shocks and Strategic Exits27:28 - From Bitcoin Chips to AI30:09 - Bitcoin, Tokenisation and Energy42:37 - Agentic AI and Future Networks53:21 - Memory, Capital and Founder Resilience

Rugby league is on a roll – due in no small part to the efforts of Peter V'Landys. Since joining the Australian Rugby League Commission in 2018 and taking up the role of ARLC and NRL Chairman in 2019, he's got quite the list of achievements. V'Landys was behind the Las Vegas expansion, the plan to expand the number of teams involved, and most recently, the $5.3 billion broadcast deal. NRL's audience has also doubled over the last five years, thanks to the fan-focused changes they made to the game. “Unfortunately, in a lot of sports they're very insular, they live in a cocoon and take all the advice off the participants, and the players, and the coaches, etc,” V'Landys told Mike Hosking. “We wanted to make sure that we accommodated the needs of the fan,” he explained. And what fans needed, V'Landys says, was less predictable play, the ball in play for longer, and more entertainment. “And that's exactly what we did.” “In New Zealand, there's been substantial growth – a lot of that's to do, of course, with the Wahs and how good they're going, but also the fact is the game is a lot more entertaining.” Speaking of the Warriors, despite Australia's typical aversion to seeing New Zealand win at anything, V'Landys says they would like to see the Warriors claim the NRL title. “They deserve it,” he told Hosking. “They've worked really hard to be where they're at.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interview with Shubham Garg, Executive Chairman & CEO of Prospera EnergyRecording date: 21st July 2026Prospera Energy Inc. (TSXV:PEI) is a Calgary-headquartered heavy-oil producer executing a well-reactivation strategy across its Cuthbert, Luseland, Hearts Hill, and Brooks properties in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Since a board and management transition in October 2024, led by CEO and Executive Chairman Shubham Garg, the company has shifted away from new drilling toward reactivating wells that were shut in due to prior operators' lack of capital and technical focus rather than poor underlying geology.The model is capital-light: each reactivation costs approximately $150,000, with typical payback in 6-8 months and a second payback cycle following within 12-14 months, as production continues to climb rather than decline in the manner of a shale well. Management has completed at least 17 reactivations to date against an inventory of more than 140 candidates, of which 42 have now been screened as "Tier One" and is expected to pay back in under nine months.Financially, the company is mid-close on a $12 million non-brokered private placement at $0.04 per unit with proceeds split between the reactivation programme ($10 million) and working capital ($2 million). The balance sheet currently carries approximately $21 million of senior debt and $7 million of subordinated debt, both largely held by board members and large shareholders, alongside roughly $75.8 million in accumulated tax pools that management expects will shelter cash income tax for several years. The company has stated an intention to retire approximately $30 million in combined debt and royalty obligations within 24 months of the financing's close.Production stood at approximately 800 boe/d gross up from a first-quarter average of 720 boe/d. Realized netbacks improved sharply through Q1 2026, from $4.78/BOE in January to $27.70/BOE in March, tracking a broader strengthening in Western Canada Select pricing tied to the Strait of Hormuz supply disruption. Management expects Q2 2026, due to be reported around mid-August, to be the company's strongest quarter to date, with a netback approaching $30/BOE.On reserves, Prospera's 2025 year-end report shows 1P before-tax NPV10 of $130.6 million and 2P of $202.0 million, with proved developed producing value guided to grow from $27 million to approximately $65 million by year-end 2026 as newly reactivated wells are recognized. Management also anticipates a further positive technical revision once more production history accumulates on wells already outperforming initial decline assumptions, expected to show up in the April 2027 reserve report.Risks include commodity price sensitivity (a stated pause threshold near $55/barrel WTI), execution risk around sand management in reactivated wells, and an unreconciled gap between the board-ownership figure cited by management (52%) and the insider-ownership figure shown in company materials (36%).Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

What keeps a multi-generational business from collapsing by the third generation? In this episode, Jeff and Spence discuss:  Building family relationships from a young age. The origin story of Holiday Inn and how it was built out of necessity.  Growing a business with customer service and going above and beyond, even when nobody else does.  Leading and guiding with questions, not commands.     Key Takeaways:  In a family business (and life), build the relationship capital before stressing about the business capital, especially with younger generations as they're being raised.   Failures help make success sweeter and give you more appreciation for those things that work well. It also gives you lessons that, if you learn from them, can help you progress forward with more wisdom.  Not all businesses require family ownership to succeed. Understanding whether your family business does or does not is key.  Entitlement will ruin more family businesses than anything else. Be humble, stay grounded, and continue to steward the legacy - it is your responsibility for whatever comes next.     "There's nothing better than working with your family. But there's probably nothing worse than working with your family if you don't do it right. You've got to have a foundation of trust, mutual respect, and love. With those, you can go a long way, personally and professionally." —  Spence Wilson Jr.   About Spence Wilson Jr.: Spence Wilson, Jr. joined Kemmons Wilson Companies (KWC) in 1995. He is currently a Principal of KWC Management and Executive Chairman of KWC, LLC. Spence began his career with KWC by helping turn around two different operating businesses. In the early to mid-2000's, he helped develop KWC's private investment strategy along with creating a network of deal sources and potential partners. Today, in addition to his duties as Chairman of KWC, LLC, he serves as a director on the board of Holiday Inn Club Vacations (formerly the Family of Orange Lake Resorts) headquartered in Orlando, FL.

Content has traditionally been treated as a creative output, but increasingly it is being measured like a performance variable. From your perspective, what has fundamentally changed?Many brands produce enormous amounts of creative content but still struggle to understand what actually drives conversion. Where do you think organizations are getting disconnected from the consumer?One thing that stands out right now is the growing pressure to produce more content, across more platforms, at much higher speed. How should executives think about balancing creative quality, consistency, and operational scale?AI-generated content is accelerating rapidly, but it also raises questions around differentiation, authenticity, and performance saturation. What do you think separates effective AI-enabled content strategies from ineffective ones?Looking ahead, do you think content intelligence becomes as measurable and operationalized as pricing or media optimization, and how does that change the role of creative organizations inside brands?

In the first episode of the Summer School series, Phil challenges professionals to adopt the mindset that separates top performers from the rest: thinking like a CEO. Regardless of your title, you're running a business within a business, and success depends on leading it with intention. In this episode, Phil outlines seven essential questions every advisor, entrepreneur, and business leader should answer to define their mission, identify their ideal clients, market their value, and build a sustainable business that creates lasting impact. If you're ready to stop drifting and start designing the future of your practice, class is officially in session. Resources: Please send Comments, Questions, and Feedback to: mojo@cannonfinancial.com Please send First Friday Feedback Submissions to: mojo@cannonfinancial.com   Transcription: Top performers in every field surround themselves with those who inspire them, who seek to build them up, and who push them to reach beyond their current limits. I'm Phil Buchanan, Executive Chairman of Canon Financial Institute. I designed Monday Morning Mojo to provide you with a weekly spark, a push, and motivational insight to live your best life. Thanks for joining. Good Monday morning, Canada Nation. It is Phil here with episode 755 of Monday Morning Mojo. Throughout the month of July, we're headed back to school. Not the kind of school with desk, textbooks, and final exams. We're talking about the kind of learning that can transform careers, elevate businesses, and ultimately change lives. I'm calling this the Monday Morning Mojo Summer School. And each week in the month of July, we're going to tackle a different lesson that every exceptional business leader, be them a wealth management professional or entrepreneur, should master. Today's lesson is simple, but it may be the most important one of the entire series. You are the CEO of your business. Now, I know what some of you are thinking. Phil, I'm not a CEO. I work for a bank. I work for a trust company. I'm part of a family office. I manage advisory relationships. I counsel clients. Now, all of that is true. But regardless of your title, every one of us operates a business within a business. Now, the elite professionals understand this. The average professionals ignore it. Elite performers think like owners, and owners think like CEOs. So let's head into today's summer school lesson. CEOs are responsible for the business thesis. Now, every successful company begins with a simple question. Why does this business exist? That's the business thesis. What problems are we solving? Who are we serving? Why should someone choose us? Look at any great company and you'll find a very clear thesis behind it. The same should be true for you. If I ask you right now, what is your professional business thesis? Could you answer in a simple one-sentence explanation? Not your firm's mission statement, not a generic value proposition, your thesis. For example, I help closely help business owners transition wealth and leadership successfully across generations. Or I help affluent families reduce complexity and increase confidence in every aspect of their financial lives. That is a thesis. Now, many professionals spend years working hard without ever defining exactly what business they're in. CEOs can't and don't make that mistake. Before they build a company, they define the mission. Before you build your business, you should define yours. Lesson 2, what type of business will you build? Once you've established your thesis, the next question is simple. What type of business are you trying to create? Now, many professionals drift throughout their careers, accepting whatever opportunities arrive. CEOs intentionally do not drift. They design. Do you want a highly specialized advisory practice? Do you want a multi-generational family office business? Do you want to become the leading advisors to entrepreneurs in your market? Do you want a smaller number of relationships or a larger number of smaller relationships? There is no right answer. That's the beauty of this business. But the value is in your clarity. The future you're building today is being shaped by the decisions you're making right now. Every client you accept, every niche you pursue, every referral source you cultivate, every hour you spend, all of it is either helping build your intended business or helping build someone else's vision. CEOs don't leave that to chance. Neither should you. Lesson 3, who are your target clients? One of the greatest mistakes professionals in any business makes is trying to serve everyone. When you try to be relevant to everyone, you become memorable to no one. The most successful businesses in the world know exactly who they serve. You should too. Who is your ideal client? What is the type of client that has issues and has challenges in their lives that cause them to search for someone with your expertise? What opportunities excite your ideal client? What obstacles frustrate them? What stages of life are they navigating? What decisions are weighing on them? The more clearly you define your audience, the easier it becomes to create value. The advisor who specializes in business owners thinks differently than the advisor who specializes in retirees. The family office professional serving ultra-high-net-worth families faces different challenges than the private banker focused on emerging wealth. Specificity creates relevance. Relevance creates trust. Trust creates multiple opportunities. Lesson #4, what services do your ideal clients need? Now here's a critical distinction. Don't, and I mean never, start with your services. Start with your clients. Too many professionals lead with what they want to sell. CEOs focus on what clients need to buy. What keeps your ideal clients awake at 2 A.m.? Is it succession planning, asset protection? tax complexity, family dynamics, charitable planning, a business transition, wealth transfer, risk management. Your value grows when you become a solution to meaningful problems. The deeper your understanding of client needs, the more indispensable you become. Remember this, clients don't buy products and services. They are buying outcomes. They are buying confidence. They are buying clarity. They are buying peace of mind. Lesson 5, how will you market your value? To be brutally honest, many talented professionals struggle here. Not because they're incapable. Rather, they've convinced themselves that marketing is someone else's job. CEOs know better. Marketing is not advertising. Marketing is helping people understand the value you create. It's your visibility. It's your reputation. It's your voice. It's your willingness to educate and engage. Today's marketplace rewards expertise that can be found, that can be searched for, that is digital and identifiable. Write articles. Host education events, create content, speak at industry gatherings, build relationships in your community, share your insights generously. When people consistently associate your name with expertise, opportunities begin to find you. Marketing is not about self-promotion, it's about value promotion. Lesson #6, what's your go-to-market strategy? Great ideas are useless without execution. Again, every CEO knows this. That's why they develop a go-to-market strategy. How will opportunities become relationships? How will relationships become clients? How will clients become advocates? What's your process? What referral sources are you cultivating? What centers of influence are important to your growth? How frequently are you engaging your community of practice? How intentional are you being? Growth rarely, if ever, happens, certainly on a sustainable business by simple chance or accident. Great businesses execute a deliberate plan. Great professionals do the same. Lesson #7, how will you service clients once they arrive? Perhaps the greatest CEO lesson of all time. Acquiring clients is important. Keeping clients is essential. What happens after someone chooses to work with you? Do they receive a deliberate onboarding process? Do they communicate proactively? Do you create clear service expectations? Exceptional service creates loyalty. Loyalty creates retention. Retention fosters referrals. And of course, referrals help accelerate growth. And then suddenly, one day, you realize you've built something sustainable instead of something dependent solely upon constant prospecting. The best businesses in the world don't just attract clients. They create advocates. Your practice should do the same. As we wrap up today's summer school lesson, I want to leave you with a challenge this week. Carve out 30 uninterrupted minutes. Grab a notebook, silence your phone, and answer these seven questions. Number one, what is my business thesis? Number 2, what type of business am I building? Number 3, who are my ideal clients? Number 4, what problems do they need solved? Number 5, how will I market my value? Number 6, what is my go-to-market strategy? And #7, what is my client servicing model? Because whether you've realized it or not, you're already the CEO of your own business. The only remaining question is, are you running it intentionally? Ladies and gentlemen, summer school is officially in session, and until next week, class is dismissed. Monday Morning Mojo is a production of Cannon Financial Institute.

Interview with Luke Norman, Executive Chairman of US Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/us-gold-corp-nasdaqusau-14b-npv-at-spot-fully-permitted-major-upside-9904Recording date: 29th June 2026U.S. Gold Corp (NASDAQ:USAU) presents a case that is relatively uncommon in the junior mining sector: a fully permitted, feasibility study-backed gold-copper project with a share structure that limits near-term dilution risk. The company's CK Gold Project, located roughly 20 miles from Cheyenne, Wyoming, benefits from established infrastructure including road, rail, and power that Executive Chairman Luke Norman argues meaningfully reduces both construction cost and timeline risk relative to more remote developments.The project's permitting status is central to the investment case. Wyoming's state-level permitting framework includes a defined objection window that closes once permits are issued, reducing the risk of legal challenges arising mid-construction which is a risk that has affected other North American projects situated on federal land or in jurisdictions with less defined objection timelines. Norman has described CK Gold as one of very few hard-rock mining developments to achieve full permitting in Wyoming in close to a century.On economics, the definitive feasibility study uses a base-case gold price of $3,250 per ounce, below the consensus estimate of roughly $3,800 per ounce cited at the time of the interview, and still produces an after-tax net present value of approximately $630 million, alongside an internal rate of return just under 30%. Copper, which contributes around 30% of the project's economics, was modelled using a price assumption that has since been exceeded by the market, suggesting the study may understate current project value.Central to management's undervaluation argument is the company's share count. With approximately 16.5 million shares outstanding which is low relative to typical junior developers, the resulting market capitalisation of roughly $260 million appears modest set against the feasibility study's NPV. Norman has attributed part of this gap to the company's Nasdaq listing, suggesting that comparable projects may be priced differently on Canadian exchanges where specialist mining investors are more concentrated.Beyond the current reserve, management points to several sources of unquantified upside: approximately 80% of drill holes extending past the existing reserve boundary showed continued mineralisation, gold remains recoverable from tailings material, and waste rock carries commercial resale value comparable to that of a neighbouring quarry operator. None of these factors is currently reflected in the feasibility study's economics.The company's financing strategy also differs from many peers. Rather than raising further equity, management has expressed a preference for debt-heavy project financing, citing the project's relatively short payback period as support for this approach as a structural distinction from junior developers whose valuations are often discounted by anticipated shareholder dilution.For investors, the opportunity rests on several dependencies: successful and timely project financing, continued permitting stability, and commodity prices holding near or above the levels used in the feasibility study. As with any development-stage mining investment, prospective investors should review the company's public filings and feasibility study documentation directly, and weigh these factors against their own risk tolerance before making investment decisions.View U.S. Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/us-gold-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Have you ever wondered whether the skills that build a company are the same skills needed to scale it? In today's episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Hadi Moussa, the newly appointed CEO of Oyster, the global employment platform helping businesses hire, pay, and support talent in more than 180 countries. The conversation comes at a fascinating moment for the company, following founder Tony Jamous' decision to step into the Executive Chairman role and hand over the CEO position from a place of strength rather than necessity. What makes this leadership transition particularly interesting is that it challenges many assumptions about founder succession. Rather than waiting for investor pressure, market turbulence, or burnout, Tony recognized that the next chapter of Oyster's growth required a different operational skill set. Hadi shares what he learned from a succession process that centered on mission alignment, alongside leadership assessments, case studies, and extensive feedback. We also explore Hadi's own journey from Lebanon to leadership positions at Facebook, Airbnb, Deliveroo, Coursera, and now Oyster. His personal experience of leaving home to pursue opportunity has given him a deep connection to Oyster's mission of making global employment accessible regardless of geography. The discussion moves beyond leadership transitions and into the future of work itself. As artificial intelligence reshapes hiring, productivity, and workforce structures, Hadi explains why he believes there is a real risk that AI could concentrate opportunity within a handful of established technology hubs. He shares Oyster's vision of using technology to more broadly distribute opportunity, enabling companies to access talent wherever it exists while maintaining trust, compliance, and human support. We also discuss what businesses continue to underestimate about managing distributed teams at scale. From culture and communication to trust and compliance, Hadi argues that remote work success requires far more than technology alone. Companies must be intentional about how they build relationships, create alignment, and support employees across borders and time zones. For founders and business leaders, this episode offers thoughtful lessons on self-awareness, leadership evolution, and knowing when a company's needs may outgrow the strengths that originally built it. It is a conversation about growth, opportunity, and the difficult decisions required to put mission ahead of personal attachment. How should leaders know when it is time to pass the baton, and can AI help create a more globally distributed future of work rather than concentrating opportunity in a few select places? Share your thoughts and join the conversation.
