"Relationships come before proposals; kokoro-gamae signals intent long before a contract". "Nemawashi wins unseen battles by equipping an internal champion to align consensus". "In Japan, decisions are slower—but execution is lightning-fast once ringi-sho is approved". "Detail is trust: dense materials, rapid follow-ups, and consistent delivery reduce uncertainty avoidance". "Think reorder, not transaction—lifetime value grows from reliability, patience, and face-saving flexibility". In this Asia AIM conversation, Dr. Greg Story reframes B2B success in Japan as a decision-intelligence exercise grounded in trust, patience, and detail. The core insight: buyers are rewarded for avoiding downside, not for taking risks. Consequently, a new supplier represents uncertainty; price discounts rarely move the needle. What does? Kokoro-gamae—demonstrable, client-first intent—expressed through meticulous preparation, responsiveness, and long-term commitment. Greg's journey began in 1992 when his Australian consultative selling failed to gain traction. The lesson was blunt: until trust is established, the offer is irrelevant because the buyer evaluates the person first. From there, the playbook is distinctly Japanese. Nemawashi—the behind-the-scenes groundwork—recognises that many stakeholders can say "no." External sellers seldom meet these influencers. The practical move is to equip an internal champion with detailed, risk-reducing materials and flexible terms that make consensus safer. Once the ringi-sho (circulating approval document) moves, execution accelerates; Japan trades slow decisions for fast delivery. Greg emphasises information density and speed. Japanese firms expect thick printouts, technical appendices, and rapid follow-ups—even calls to confirm an email was received. This signals reliability and reduces the purchaser's uncertainty. Trial orders are common; they are not small but strategic—tests of quality, schedule adherence, and flexibility. Win the test, and the budget cycle (often April-to-March) can position the supplier for multi-year reorders. Culturally, face and accountability shape referrals. Testimonials are difficult because clients avoid responsibility if something goes wrong. Longevity itself becomes social proof: "We've supplied X for ten years" carries weight. Greg's hunter-versus-farmer distinction highlights the need to support new logos with dedicated account "farmers" who manage detail, cadence, and service levels that earn reorders. Patience is tactical, not passive. "Kentō shimasu" may mean "not now," so he calendarises a nine-month follow-up—enough time for internal conditions to change without ceding the account to competitors. Throughout, he urges leaders to think in lifetime value, align to budget rhythms, and communicate more than feels natural. The result is a high-trust system where consensus reduces organisational risk—and where suppliers that master nemawashi, detail, and delivery become integral partners rather than interchangeable vendors.  Q&A Summary What makes leadership in Japan unique? Leadership succeeds when it reduces organisational risk and preserves face during consensus formation. Nemawashi equips internal champions to address objections before meetings, while ringi-sho formalises agreement. Leaders who foreground kokoro-gamae, provide dense decision packs, and allow time for alignment see decisions stick and execution accelerate. Why do global executives struggle? Western managers often prize speed, big-room persuasion, and minimal detail. In Japan, uncertainty avoidance is high; buyers seek exhaustive documentation and incremental proof via pilots. Under-investing in detail or follow-up reads as unreliable. Overlooking budget cycles and internal approvals leads to mistimed asks and stalled ringi. Is Japan truly risk-averse? Individuals are incentivised to avoid downside, which shifts decisions from "risk-taking" to "risk-mitigation." The system favours tested suppliers, visible track records, and trial orders. Price rarely offsets perceived risk. Trust and history function as risk controls; once approved, delivery speed reflects the system's confidence. What leadership style actually works? A patient, service-led style that privileges relationships over transactions. Leaders ask permission to ask questions, listen for hidden constraints, and co-design low-risk pilots. Farmers—or hunter-farmer teams—sustain cadence, escalate issues early, and remain flexible as conditions change, protecting the champion's face and the consensus. How can technology help? Decision intelligence platforms can map stakeholders and sentiment across the approval chain. Digital twins of delivery schedules and SLAs, plus living dashboards of quality metrics, give champions ringi-ready evidence. Structured knowledge bases, rapid response workflows, and audit trails strengthen reliability signals during nemawashi. Does language proficiency matter? Language builds rapport, but process fluency matters more: understanding nemawashi, ringi-sho, and budget cycles; providing dense Japanese-language materials; and maintaining a proactive follow-up cadence. Bilingual support teams and translated technical appendices can materially lower perceived risk. What's the ultimate leadership lesson? Optimise for the reorder, not the first sale. Reliability, speed of follow-up, document density, and cultural fluency compound into durable trust. Japan rewards those who "hasten slowly," then deliver flawlessly when the decision finally lands.  Timecoded Summary [00:00] Context and thesis: Japan's B2B environment rewards risk mitigation over risk-taking; relationships precede proposals. Greg recounts his early failure applying Australian consultative selling before building rapport and trust as prerequisites. [05:20] Nemawashi in practice: Many stakeholders can veto; sellers rarely meet them. Equip the champion with dense packs, options, and flexibility to navigate objections. Ringi-sho formalises consensus, and once signed, execution accelerates. [12:45] Detail and responsiveness: Japanese buyers expect information-rich printouts and fast follow-ups—even same-day responses. Trial orders function as risk-controlled tests of quality, schedule, and flexibility. Delivery during trials sets the tone for long-term partnership. [18:30] Referrals and proof: Public testimonials are rare due to accountability risk. Tenure becomes currency—long relationships serve as de-risking signals to new buyers. Social proof derives from sustained performance, not logos on a webpage. [24:10] Cadence and patience: "Kentō shimasu" often means "not now." Calendarise a nine-month check-in to match likely internal change cycles. Align proposals to April budget rhythms to avoid timing out. Maintain polite persistence without pushiness. [31:05] Operating model: Pair hunters with farmers; once a deal lands, a service-led team manages detail, SLAs, and face-saving flexibility. Leaders message lifetime value, not quarterly wins, and use technology (decision intelligence, digital twins, knowledge bases) to support nemawashi and ringi.  Author Credentials Dr. Greg Story, Ph.D. in Japanese Decision-Making, is President of Dale Carnegie Tokyo Training and Adjunct Professor at Griffith University.

Do all whitening gels work the same, or is the brand actually important? Are lights and in-office “power whitening” just marketing hype? And what's the deal with the infamous white diet - do your patients really need to give up coffee and red wine? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Wyman Chan, the man who literally hung up his drills in 2002 to dedicate his career to whitening alone. With over 20,000 cases under his belt (and a PhD in the science behind it), Wyman shares his three golden rules for whitening success: trays, communication, and conscious bleaching. We're also joined by Dr. Niki Shah, who brings his own insights into whitening and patient care, making this a conversation packed with both science and clinical experience. Wyman introduces his latest invention—Magic 3, a fizzing gel that reveals and removes plaque while calming gums. Plus, Wyman busts some of the biggest whitening myths (sorry, “white diet”) and explains why he no longer bothers with internal bleaching. If you've ever wondered how to make whitening safer, more predictable, and less stressful for you and your patients—this is the episode you'll want to tune in for. Protrusive Dental Pearl Innovation in Hygiene with Magic 3 - What is Magic 3? A colorless plaque indicator gel developed by Wyman Chan. Fizzes on contact with plaque.

Learn more at https://protrusive.co.uk/magic3 https://youtu.be/ImpHJP3Wxec Watch PDP245 on YouTube Key Takeaways: Teeth whitening success depends on tray design, formulation, technique, and compliance. Conscious bleaching helps minimise sensitivity. Sensitivity is due to peroxide reaching the pulp. Patients should adjust wear time gradually, starting short and increasing if comfortable. Communication and treatment planning are crucial to match whitening regimes with lifestyles. The “white diet” is not scientifically necessary - normal eating and drinking can resume within minutes. External bleaching alone can be effective, even for single dark teeth. Tetracycline-stained teeth can respond to whitening with the right protocols. The brand is less important than protocol consistency and clinician experience. In-office light-assisted whitening adds risk, cost, and chairside time without proven benefit. Allergic reactions are more likely caused by gel additives, not peroxide itself. Emerging products, such as peroxide-based gels for plaque disruption and gingival health, may complement whitening in the future.

Have you ever wondered how tracking people actually works? You've probably seen a lot of Hollywood depictions of how law enforcement track people over external terrain, and maybe you've wondered what's real and what's exaggerated. I talk with Rob Speiden, an instructor in what's called “sign cutting." Rob breaks down real search-and-rescue, law-enforcement, and military use-cases; why “broken twigs” and deep foot prints are actually weak evidence; how pros actually determine the age of sign using weather history and side-by-side comparisons; and why disciplined interviewing at the start of a mission can save hours later. He's blunt about the limits of tracking, too—like why you can't easily deduce someone's weight from track depth alone. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

You've probably noticed: influence isn't just for the ‘personal brand' crowd anymore. It's the new leadership language. In this solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why visibility alone isn't enough—and how today's leaders need to evolve their presence to stay relevant and bankable. I break down the real shifts happening in boardrooms, executive suites, and industries where trust is fragile, talent is scarce, and perception drives power. I started this show helping entrepreneurs turn influence into income. That mission still matters. But now? We're going bigger. Because the same principles that fuel personal brands are now mission-critical for executives, corporations, and anyone leading in a high-stakes, high-visibility environment. So if you're still defining executive presence by how polished you look in a meeting—let's fix that. In this episode, I break down: Why the old rules of influence no longer apply How executive presence must evolve—from the room to the world The three external forces reshaping leadership today Why “being seen” is no longer the goal—and what to aim for instead How to position your leadership identity for ROI (reputation, retention, revenue) Your Next Steps: Access the white paper: External Influence: The Currency Every Leader Must Carry. https://externalinfluence.us Follow Shayna on LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/shaynarattler Visit our website: https://shaynadavisconsulting.com

The group compares weight, comfort, thermal balance, strap systems, and software ecosystems. Marty shares his early hands-on impressions with the Galaxy XR—including its lighter design but occasional light leakage—while Ben and Jill discuss how purpose may determine market success: Vision Pro for spatial productivity, Galaxy XR for approachable consumer entry.  The discussion moves to VisionOS Beta 4, where developer-focused updates aim to improve stability and groundwork for more immersive experiences. The consensus: incremental but necessary.   Then comes one of the show's most passionate sections: Apple's decision not to allow trade-ins of the first-generation Vision Pro. The panel debates how this affects:     •    customer loyalty     •    early-adopter trust     •    whether the Vision Pro is being treated like a dev kit vs. consumer product. Reactions range from “understandable” to “rough look for a $3,500 device.”  From there, the conversation shifts to the GM / CarPlay breakup, which inspires instant groans. Everyone shares personal and community stories confirming that CarPlay is no longer a luxury—it's baseline expectation.

In this episode of the Crisis Lab Podcast, host Kyle King takes a hard look at the internal fractures forming within the emergency management community. Kyle reflects on how recent disasters and public criticism have brought long-standing issues to the surface. This episode challenges the profession to face uncomfortable truths about authority, messaging, and its evolving role in the face of growing demands. With examples drawn from major events like Hurricanes Helene and Milton, and reactions from both public officials and emergency professionals, Kyle unpacks how misinformation, internal conflict, and a crisis of credibility are reshaping what it means to serve communities during emergencies. He explores how the field's reliance on heroic language has masked a quiet shift toward managing scarcity rather than delivering aid and why the time for honest self-examination is now. Tune in to hear why emergency management stands at a crossroads and what it must do to rebuild public trust and professional unity in an age of constant crisis.

Oh, so you'd like to create EVERY story arc, enemy, NPC, and element of your D&D adventure out of thin air, without resorting to using characters who are blatant knockoffs of well-known actors or movie characters? And let me guess: you'd also like every adventure arc be an entirely new story that's never been seen (or at least is heavily disguised). Well, this is the wrong episode for you, because Tanner discusses why copying or embracing external story and character inspiration isn't cheap, negative, or even lazy: it's actually a great tool for DMs!

BRUE, Brief Resolved Unexplained Events, are a common and anxiety-provoking condition that presents to the Emergency Department. In this episode we explore the definition of BRUE, contrast it with ALTE, and walk through evidence-based approaches to risk stratification. We'll explore the original AAP framework and two subsequent prediction models to see where the recommendations stand today. This is a classic example of scary event / well child that you will see in the Emergency Department. Learning Objectives By the end of this episode, you will be able to: Define BRUE and contrast it with the older concept of ALTE. Recognize evolving risk stratification criteria Apply evidence-based strategies for evaluation and counseling of infants with BRUE, including safe discharge decisions and the role of home monitoring.

Send us a textHow external circumstances can influence inner peace and its importance in personal and global contexts is what this week's episode covers. We reflect on recent events, including political situations, and the dialogue emphasizes the need for balance between intellect and emotion, the role of leadership in fostering peace, and the significance of timing in life's opportunities. Ultimately, the conversation serves as a reminder that true peace begins within oneself and is essential for navigating life's challenges."I was radiating peace (from) inside."  In this conversation, the speakers explore the theme of peace from a spiritual perspective, discussing the importance of balancing intellect and emotion to find and maintain peace, the role of inner and outer leadership in fostering peace, and the necessity of finding inner peace amidst the chaos of life for personal evolution.  "I come in alone, I go out alone."  What does that mean?  They also emphasize the significance of self-awareness and the impact of one's inner state on external circumstances, ultimately advocating for a peaceful approach to life's challenges. TakeawaysThe keyword for this week is peace.Radiating peace internally can influence external situations.Inner peace is essential for navigating external influences.Leaderships' role in fostering peace.Recognizing and acting on ripe opportunities is key.Personal responsibility is vital for raising one's state of awareness.Finding peace within oneself is a prerequisite for being of true service.Life is a game, and maintaining perspective is essential.Season 1 Episode 43 of Spiritual Perspectives: Discerning News...Discover spiritual truths delivered in a practical way in these three e-books created by The Wayshowers College.

Hey Team! Today I'm joined by Alex Bellitter, Senior Manager of Coaching at Shimmer, an ADHD coaching platform that's guided over 75,000 sessions. If this sounds a bit familiar, I also did an interview with Shimmer's CEO, Chris Wang, last year - but of course in this episode, we're covering a lot more and while Shimmer is mentioned it certainly isn't the focus of what we're talking about here. But back to who we're talking with today. Alex holds a Master's in Psychology and is a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach. She's passionate about building a neuroinclusive approach to coaching and helping people redefine what success looks like for their unique brains. We get into what burnout really looks like for ADHD brains and how the “grind it out” mindset backfires every time. Alex shares how resilience isn't about powering through and we also unpack the ideas of capacity, how we burn through future energy, and why rest, play, and flexibility are actually key parts of productivity. Plus, we get into ADHD inertia, smart scaffolding, and that tricky process of rediscovering your strengths when your brain insists you don't have any.

But leaving unscheduled blocks gives us breathing room and time for the unexpected. This means it's important that we're making sure keep at least some white space on our calendars. We can fall into the trap of treating rest like a reward for finishing everything, but rest is part of the system that keeps us going. Taking time to rest isn't laziness; it's maintenance that we sorely need. External structure, such as reminders, alarms, notes, and accountability partners, can often help ADHD brains thrive, but a lot of us carry shame around using these supports. We're not “cheating” the system by building one that works for us. These scaffoldings allow us to grow stronger over time without collapsing under pressure by giving us the support we need.

“Too many procurement professionals have developed a push energy. If you take that same approach with internal stakeholders, it won't work. We need to develop pull energy — asking questions, listening, and creating a shared vision.” - Giuseppe Conti, Professor, Author of Negotiation + Influence = Success: Quick Lessons to Help You Win in Corporate Life Procurement leaders know how much the field has changed, but the biggest barriers often come from within. As procurement's role expands, it has become essential to influence internally, manage expectations, and go beyond data-driven persuasion. In this Art of Procurement podcast episode, Philip Ideson speaks with Giuseppe Conti, a seasoned procurement executive turned business school professor. Giuseppe reveals why internal negotiation is so much tougher than dealing with suppliers, and offers strategies to shift procurement teams from “push” to “pull” influence. If your team's technical skills are strong, but your impact could be greater, this is a must-listen. Giuseppe's practical tools – like a 20-minute, one-page prep template and real-world active listening techniques – will give any procurement leader an edge. In this episode, Giuseppe explains how to: Diagnose and close the gap between perceived and actual listening skills Move from “push energy” to “pull energy” for genuine, lasting influence Set realistic internal stakeholder expectations and avoid common missteps Balance data with emotional intelligence to drive decisions Links: Giuseppe Conti on LinkedIn Negotiation + Influence = Success: Quick Lessons to Help You Win in Corporate Life by Giuseppe Conti Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube

In this heartfelt episode of Not Alone, Valeria sits down with her husband Gary for an intimate and honest conversation about family life, parenting, and the values that shape their home. Together, they open up about raising their three boys and reflect on how their approach to parenting has evolved over the years. From Gary's “clairvoyant” instincts about their kids' genders to navigating the early days of parenthood and finding patience along the way, the couple shares stories that are both funny and deeply touching. They discuss teaching their sons critical thinking in the digital age, the importance of leading by example, and how they stay intentional about what they allow into their home. With moments of laughter, reflection, and even tears, Valeria and Gary discuss what kind of parents they want to be for their boys, and why, in the Lipovetsky household, accountability, integrity, and love are always at the core.

External pressures are reshaping the HVAC industry — from tariffs and private equity, to rapidly evolving homeowner expectations. Yet despite it all, top-performing contractors are growing stronger and finding new ways to stay in control by turning challenges into opportunities. On this episode of Cracking the Code, David Holt sits down with Decision Analyst, a […] The post How Contractors are Thriving in a Changing Landscape first appeared on My Contractor University | Dashboard.

The female mind works like an intricate spider web - connecting threads across time, memory, intuition, and care - which makes women's capacity for love extraordinarily powerful, but when twisted into bullying becomes devastatingly cruel. The same mental architecture that creates profound nurturing can transform into covert psychological warfare that reshapes perception with five words or less, magnifies mistakes across decades, and undermines targets while smiling. The stark contrast between male and female bullying patterns gets unpacked through evolutionary psychology, showing why female cruelty often feels more confusing and harder to escape than direct male aggression. External female bullying can be internalized as a vicious self-critical voice that can become harmful to ourselves - not from sadness like movies portray, but from rage and disgust. The path forward involves recognizing these patterns, reclaiming healthy feminine power, and learning to spot, boundary, and avoid these dynamics while building genuine female connections rooted in love rather than control.

Tony Robbins dives deep into the truth about emotions: they're not caused by external events but created by us through focus, language, and meaning. He reveals how habitual patterns and the questions we ask shape our feelings and ultimately our destiny. Through powerful stories — like W. Mitchell's resilience after unimaginable tragedies — Tony shows that it's never what happens to us, but how we respond that defines our life.Source: Anthony Robbins Seminar Tony Robbins Life Mastery State ManagementHosted by Sean CroxtonFollow me on Instagram Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Aanya talks with innovation coach and life-design expert Ibeth Ayala, author of No Risk, No Fun and From the Ground Up. This conversation cuts through buzzwords to show how real innovation begins with self-honesty, not strategy decks. Ibeth unpacks her Connect → Create → Try framework, how to spot rising stress before burnout, and why “permission to fail” accelerates progress in careers and companies—especially in legacy industries like insurance. If you're navigating exhaustion, change, or a high-stakes role, this episode offers a direct path to clarity, creativity, and sustainable action. About the Guest  : Ibeth Ayala is an innovation coach, life-design expert, and internationally best-selling author. After a personal reset in her 20s, she's spent years guiding leaders and teams to shift from burnout to bold creativity, building innovation capacity across sectors from insurance to aviation. Key Takeaways: Innovation is an inner game first. External tactics don't land without personal clarity on needs, priorities, and values. Burnout ≠ only about work. Life stress compounds; address the whole system—relationships, health, money, career—rather than a single silo. Use the 3-step loop:Connect (self-check: what do I need?), Create (options, reframes), Try (small experiments to validate). Catch stress early. Rate stress 1–10 and intervene sooner; prevention beats recovery. Drop inherited beliefs. Question norms like “marriage/work is supposed to be hard” and choose what actually serves your life design. Permission to fail—fast. In teams, name failure as expected learning. The sooner you see what doesn't work, the faster you progress. Risk drives momentum. No risk, no fun: calibrated risks unlock creativity and engagement, especially in traditional sectors. Context matters. Diets, routines, and advice are abstractions until personalized to age, health, history, and goals. Design your “ground.” Clear the old (assumptions, limits) before planting new habits—like prepping soil before a garden. Sustainable innovation = ongoing tuning. You don't need to hit rock bottom; build awareness and adjust before crisis.
