When Phong Nguyen stepped into the CEO role at Modus—a technology platform processing over $2 Billion annually in driver reimbursements—he skipped the victory lap and did something his team was terrified to arrange: he got on a call with one of their biggest, angriest ex-customers.The client "ripped them a new one," exposing a hard reality: Modus had lost its innovation edge and treated them transactionally. But instead of getting defensive, Fong took a walk to cool down, gathered his leadership team, and used that uncomfortable call to recalibrate the company's "true north". Within 12 months, they won that customer back.In this episode of Lead The Team, host Ben Fanning sits down with Phong Nguyen to discuss:The Ex-Customer Playbook: Why calling lost accounts yields the rawest, most valuable strategic data.Customer Centricity vs. Customer Success: Why true customer focus is a business strategy, not a metrics-driven department.Leading Through Perspective: How growing up as a Vietnamese refugee shaped his long-term view on work ethic, discipline, and opportunity."Liked vs. Respected": The screaming match early in his career that forced him to develop his own philosophy on modern management.Uncovering Hidden Signals: Moving past surface-level KPIs to align with actual customer business outcomes.Resources & LinksGet Weekly Insights: Receive vital takeaways from every episode directly to your inbox at benfanning.com/insight.Rate & Review: Enjoying the show?

Raised in the Pasadena area, he worked professionally in apparel marketing before transitioning full-time to the culinary industry. Woon initially launched as a pop-up noodle stand in 2014 to share the original recipes of his mother, Julie Chen, also known as Mama Fong. The family-backed venture grew to open its first brick-and-mortar restaurant in Historic Filipinotown in 2019, followed by a second location in Pasadena in 2025, while also expanding its distribution of sauces and pantry staples nationwide.

You're mid-combo, nailing your choreography, and suddenly—snap! The floor shifts beneath you, pain shoots up your leg, and your rehearsal dreams hit pause. This week on Performers Happiness in the Arts (PHARTS), Jenna Kantor, PT, DPT—dance medicine specialist and performer—dives deep into one of the most common and frustrating injuries for musical theatre artists: the ankle sprain. Whether you're a dancer landing from a tour jeté, a singer gliding across stage in character heels, or an actor pivoting during a quick scene change, your ankles are the unsung heroes of your performance. Learn how to spot the difference between a mild twist and a true sprain, why these injuries happen so often onstage, and what the science says about your recovery timeline. We'll also unpack research showing that up to 70% of dancers experience an ankle injury during their career (Steinberg et al., Tel Aviv University, 2011) and discuss how even minor sprains can affect balance, mobility, and confidence long after the swelling fades. This episode walks you through: The anatomy behind a sprain (why the ATFL is always in the spotlight) What the healing phases really look like for performers How to safely return to turns, jumps, and stage movement Evidence-based prevention tools that keep you performing pain-free ✨ Referenced Research: Steinberg, N., Hershkovitz, I., et al.

What if one of the most overlooked factors affecting memory consolidation, emotional regulation, practice efficiency, and performance consistency wasn't a new practice strategy - but sleep?Dr. Joanna Fong-Isariyawongse is a triple board-certified neurologist, sleep specialist, and epileptologist at the University of Pittsburgh, where her work focuses on cognitive performance, sleep, and neurological recovery under high-demand conditions. In addition to her clinical and academic work, she consults with high-performing populations including professional athletes, executives, pilots, and first responders, and has served as a neurology consultant to the Pittsburgh Steelers.In this episode, we explore why practice sometimes doesn't “stick,” how sleep affects emotional reactivity and performance anxiety, why pianists improved 10-13% overnight without additional practice, how naps and “sleep banking” can help before auditions and performances, what musicians should know about jet lag and chronotypes, and the surprisingly small sleep habits that may have the biggest impact on performing at your true level.Get all the nerdy details in this month's interview:Joanna Fong-Isariyawongse: The Science of Sleep for MusiciansMore from The Bulletproof MusicianGet the free weekly newsletter, for more nerdy details and bonus subscriber-only content.Pressure Proof: A free 7-day performance practice crash course that will help you shrink the gap between the practice room and the stage.Learning Lab: A continuing education community where musicians and learners are putting research into practice.Live and self-paced courses
For decades, a tight carotid stenosis felt like a ticking time bomb — a plaque waiting to throw an embolus and cause the next stroke. We were taught that severe narrowing meant surgery, and trials like ACAS and ACST-1 seemed to prove it. But medicine has changed. Statins, antiplatelets, tighter blood pressure control, even PCSK9 and GLP-1 therapies have quietly slashed stroke risk, and now newer data from CREST-2 suggest that for many asymptomatic patients, the knife — or the stent — may not add much at all. So if modern medical therapy works better than ever… who actually benefits from intervention anymore? Today, we unpack the evidence, the controversies, and how to counsel the patient who feels perfectly fine but has high-grade stenosis.Hosts: Carolyn Judge, Andrew Huang, Luciano Delbono, Frank Davis, Robert BeaulieuInstitution: University of Michigan, Department of Surgery, Section of Vascular SurgeryLearning objectives: Describe how modern intensive medical therapy has transformed the natural history of asymptomatic carotid stenosis and explain why contemporary patients experience substantially lower annual stroke risk than those in earlier eras. Interpret and compare the results of landmark trials—including ACAS, ACST-1, and CREST-2—to assess the relative benefits of medical therapy, endarterectomy, and stenting. Apply current evidence and guideline recommendations to patient care by selecting which asymptomatic patients are most likely to benefit from carotid revascularization versus optimized medical therapy alone.

There was no more trenchant and substantive critic of the Left from the Left in the 1960s and 1970s than Bayard Rustin. Some liberals and leftists today valorize Rustin on the basis of his multiple oppressed identities and civil rights organizing. On the other hand, many others dismiss him for being compromised by his commitment to the Democratic Party or by his deep suspicion of the new forms of left activism that appeared in the mid-1960s. While Rustin certainly made some strategic mis-steps later in life, his challenges to the New Left, Black Power, and a regressing liberal establishment from 1964 until his passing in 1987 were insightful, cutting, and often quite prescient. At a time when the Left is in dire need of self-reflection and reorientation, Rustin's work has gained a new relevance and urgency. In a new collection of Rustin's writings from this period, Fong and Prescod gathered together articles and speeches that represent Rustin's Challenge to the Left of his day. Some of the pieces of Rustin's writing chosen for inclusion have been published before, but only in pamphlets or newspapers from many decades ago. Some will be published for the first time here.The volume also includes commentaries on these pieces by Adolph Reed, Jr., Jennifer Silva, Les Leopold, Mark Dudzic, Jen Pan, John-Baptiste Oduor, and many others, all contextualizing Rustin's challenge and demonstrating its continuing applicability. Matthis Frickhoeffer is a scholar of critical theory and French thought with a background in literature studies, linguistics and art theory. His work focuses on questions of form, semiotics, and intertextuality. He teaches at the University of Texas at Dallas. Learn more about your ad choices.

There was no more trenchant and substantive critic of the Left from the Left in the 1960s and 1970s than Bayard Rustin. Some liberals and leftists today valorize Rustin on the basis of his multiple oppressed identities and civil rights organizing. On the other hand, many others dismiss him for being compromised by his commitment to the Democratic Party or by his deep suspicion of the new forms of left activism that appeared in the mid-1960s. While Rustin certainly made some strategic mis-steps later in life, his challenges to the New Left, Black Power, and a regressing liberal establishment from 1964 until his passing in 1987 were insightful, cutting, and often quite prescient. At a time when the Left is in dire need of self-reflection and reorientation, Rustin's work has gained a new relevance and urgency. In a new collection of Rustin's writings from this period, Fong and Prescod gathered together articles and speeches that represent Rustin's Challenge to the Left of his day. Some of the pieces of Rustin's writing chosen for inclusion have been published before, but only in pamphlets or newspapers from many decades ago.

On Amazon, labour & logistics, and trains. Benjamin Fong, of ASU's Center for Work and Democracy, as well as an editor at Damage and co-author of the substack On The Seams, talks to Alex and George about organising workers in locations of corporate vulnerability. We also preview the forthcoming print issue of Damage, Trains, by discussing modernity and its avatars, and development and de-development in Brazil. Why target Amazon above all else? What are the "seams" and why are they important? Can labour still "go after the big targets"? Do these still exist given the dispersion of production and distribution? How much public appetite is there for blockages at pain points?
