Forrester's latest report indicates that the AI hype wave is reaching its peak, with many enterprises expected to delay a significant portion of their AI spending until 2027 due to challenges in proving return on investment (ROI). As a response to increasing regulatory complexities, 60% of Fortune 100 companies are anticipated to appoint heads of AI governance by next year. This shift highlights a growing focus on compliance and risk management rather than pure innovation. Meanwhile, G2's findings present a contrasting narrative, revealing that nearly 60% of companies have successfully deployed AI agents, with a low failure rate and high satisfaction among users.Despite the positive deployment statistics from G2, a study by Atlassian uncovers a paradox: while individual usage of AI tools has surged, 96% of businesses report no significant improvements in efficiency or innovation. The survey indicates that only 3% of executives believe AI has driven transformational change within their organizations. This disconnect suggests that while AI tools are being adopted widely, their impact on actual business outcomes remains limited, leading to skepticism among decision-makers.Anthropic's recent research raises concerns about the security of large language models, revealing that as few as 250 malicious documents could effectively poison these models, compromising their functionality. This alarming finding underscores the vulnerabilities present in AI systems, particularly those relying on public or partner data. The implications for businesses are significant, as they must now consider the security of their AI systems alongside their operational capabilities.In the hardware arena, Apple and Intel are igniting a new chip race, with Apple launching its M5 chip, which boasts enhanced AI performance and graphics capabilities. Intel's Panther Lake chip is set to compete with improved efficiency and performance metrics. As AI technology becomes increasingly integrated into devices, managed service providers (MSPs) must adapt to the complexities of endpoint management and AI readiness. The evolving landscape emphasizes the need for governance, security, and effective measurement of AI outcomes, positioning MSPs as crucial enablers in this transition.Four things to know today 00:00 Forrester, G2, Atlassian, and Anthropic Paint a Complex AI Picture — Success, Stagnation, and Security Risk06:09 Apple's M5 and Intel's Panther Lake Show the Future: Every Device Becomes an AI Engine09:17 GoTo, Gradient, and LevelBlue Show the Next MSP Evolution — Refinement, Not Reinvention12:21 Microsoft's Final Windows 10 Update and IE Mode Lockdown Signal the End of Legacy Tolerance This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://try.auvik.com/dave-switchhttps://scalepad.com/dave/

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: .Sermon Notes:IntroductionIllustration: Gift wrapping → multiple boxes → unwrapping reveals more gifts.God gives Moses the gift of His name.Like unwrapping a gift, we discover multiple blessings within God's name.Context (Ex. 3:10–13)God calls Moses: “I will send you to Pharaoh.”Moses: “Who am I?” (hesitant, insecure).God's answer: “I will be with you… here is my name.”The Gift of God's Name – Five Blessings1. Presence (vv. 12, 14–15)Name: “I AM WHO I AM” → Yahweh (“HE IS”).God's most foundational truth: He exists, eternal, absolute.His presence goes with us. Pharaoh = nothing compared to Yahweh, the One Who Is.2. Personal (v. 15)God shares His covenant name, Yahweh.Illustration: King Charles → “Call me Chuck.”A privilege of intimacy. God's name = invitation into covenant relationship.3. Promises (vv. 16–17)A “good name” = trustworthy reputation (Prov. 22:1).God's name = tied to His promises.Example: Exodus 6 – “I am Yahweh… I will bring you out… I will redeem you… I am Yahweh.”Yahweh = Promise-making, Promise-keeping God.4. Power (vv. 19–21)Pharaoh will not let Israel go “unless compelled by a mighty hand.”Yahweh demonstrates power through plagues, Passover, Red Sea.Yahweh reigns over nations, nature, life, death.Subtle power too: influencing Egyptian hearts to give Israel gold & silver.5. Plan (John 8:58; Phil. 2:9–11)Yahweh was not the final revelation.Jesus claims: “Before Abraham was, I AM.”In Jesus, Yahweh's name is fulfilled and exalted.“At the name of Jesus every knee will bow…”Applications1. Cherish the Gift – Don't misuse the NameCommandment: “Do not take Yahweh's name in vain.” (Ex. 20:7)God's name is sacred → not to be used flippantly.Use His name with reverence, worship, love, gratitude.2. Call on the Name – Especially in MissionGod gave Moses His name to empower mission.Jesus: “Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it.” (John 14:12–14)We carry the name of Jesus into brokenness, suffering, and mission.Discussion Questions:Someone has observed: "the larger God is in our hearts, the smaller our problems seem." Do you agree or disagree? How might the meaning of God's name "I AM/Yahweh" help us magnify the greatness of God?In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus teaches his disciples to pray "hallowed be your name."  What does it mean to pray these words? How does it connect to the gift of God's name? What are different ways we can apply that prayer petition today?Can you think of times when God displayed his power in your life - either overtly or subtly?Give examples of misusing the gift of God's names (God, the LORD, Jesus, etc).Why is the context of mission important for asking for things in Jesus' name (see John 14:12-14)?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon?

Sermon NotesI. IntroductionJoseph Campbell (not a Christian, but a student of mythology/religion) observed:“What we are looking for is a way of experiencing the world that will open to us the transcendent...”Human beings are incurably spiritual—we seek transcendence.Some through traditional religions (Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam).Others through mindfulness, energy work, nature, etc.Two key points:Affirm the desire for transcendence—it is real and God-given.Learn to discern authentic transcendence from false or self-referential spirituality.II. The Text: Exodus 2:23–3:12Context: Moses in Midian, tending sheep near Horeb.Not seeking a spiritual encounter; God initiates it.Key Question: What can we learn about genuine transcendent encounters?Two themes: Person and Paradox.III. The PERSON Moses EncounteredThe Angel of the LORD (v. 2)More than just an angel → identified with God Himself.Possibly the pre-incarnate Christ (Word/Logos).Authentic TranscendenceEncounter with someone other than himself.Not self-discovery or inner potential—real personhood beyond Moses.God is personal, not impersonal force/energy.The Burning Bush SymbolismFire = light, warmth, purification, judgment.Bush not consumed → God is self-sustaining, absolute reality, source of all existence.Childlike question: “Who created God?” → answer: no one. He is the source.Authentic transcendence = encountering the self-existent God who draws near.IV. The PARADOX of God's PresenceGod Knows Moses by Name (v. 4)God is relational, loving, intimately aware of Moses' story.God's nature = love and relationship.But… God's Holiness Creates Distance (v. 5)“Do not come near; take off your sandals, for this is holy ground.”Holiness = God's otherness + moral purity.Human corruption (sin) incompatible with holiness.Illustration: fresh snow → pure → later becomes dirty slush.Result: God is both near and distant → paradox.Resolution of the ParadoxGod Himself provides the way for humans to approach.In Moses' case: humility (remove sandals).Later: OT sacrificial system.Ultimately: Jesus Christ.His cross removes sin barrier.Makes access to God's holy presence possible.Application: Spirit is HOLY; without Christ we would be consumed, with Christ we receive Him with joy.V. ConclusionWe are spiritual beings with souls that crave transcendence.Not every spirituality satisfies—self-focused versions fall short.At the burning bush, Moses encountered:Absolute reality.A personal God.Holy presence made accessible by God's provision.Our souls find satisfaction only in the Triune God—Father, Son, Spirit.Call: Don't settle for less than the real.Discussion Questions:How would you define transcendence? Have you had any experiences in your life that you would describe as transcendent?If, as the sermon suggests, genuine spirituality is not self-referential (simply connecting with more of yourself), is deeper self-knowledge still important? If so, where is it found? Is there a connection between encountering the real God and discovering the real self? How so?Read Exodus 3:3-4. Do you believe it is significant that God did not call to Moses until he turned aside to see the strange sight? Do you think God would have still spoken to Moses if he had not turned aside? How might this speak to the lack of encounters with God that many experience today? As you reflect on that, consider Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poem:Earth's crammed with heaven,And every common bush afire with God,But only he who sees, takes off his shoes,The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries,And daub their natural faces unaware.Read Exodus 3:7-12.  What was the ultimate purpose of Moses' encounter with God at the Burning Bush? What was God's purpose for revealing himself to Moses? Is there a link today between our personal encounters with God and a greater purpose like mission?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon? Email Randy Forrester ().

In Part 1 of this two-part series we explored how families navigate the system designed to find America's missing warriors. This episode examines the hopes and the frustrations flowing from that continuing effort, questions about closure, what Vietnam MIA families should expect, and what they can do in the meantime.

Time for a Would You Rather Wednesday edition of GCR as we continue talking Ravens and where we go next after the loss Monday night to Detroit. We'll began looking ahead to the matchup with the Chiefs in Kansas City on Sunday, our final takeaways from MNF before we put it behind us and much more, including the O's who picked up a shutout win over the Rays last night. We'll dive into all things Ravens with our buddy Drew Forrester of DrewsMorningDish.com as we do every Wednesday, talk a little baseball, some Ryder Cup and of course participate in some Would You Rather Wednesday. Then at 11:45am, we will have the opportunity to catch up with the great Jim Nantz, who will be on the call for CBS on Sunday afternoon in Kansas City for Ravens-Chiefs as we preview the game with Jim, talk about his 40 years at CBS, a little golf, Lamar Jackson and more.

This week's episode marks the second edition  of "The Analysts" once again bringing together the sharpest minds in global retail. This time we welcome Sucharita Kodali, Vice President & Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, and Neil Saunders, Managing Director at GlobalData Retail for a lively, insight rich discussion about the future of retail.The episode kicks off with U.S. retail sales results from the NRF/CNBC Retail Monitor and the US Census Bureau, which showed surprisingly strong growth despite inflation, tariffs, and shaky consumer sentiment. Neil and Sucharita explain why inflation-adjusted numbers tell a more modest story, while digging into the growing disconnect between historically low consumer confidence and healthy sales. They highlight how wealth concentration and media filter bubbles distort the economic picture, making retail performance appear stronger or weaker depending on perspective."The Analysts" then turn to the state of mega-brand retail turnarounds. Neil delivers a tough assessment of Kohl's—calling it the “turnaround that never happened”—while offering cautious optimism on Macy's and Gap, which are showing small but real signs of progress. Sucharita points to structural weaknesses in department stores but also notes resilience in Walmart, Costco, and dollar stores. Together, they weigh how tariffs, operational missteps, and consumer shifts complicate recovery.Next up: AI in retail. Sucharita underscores that artificial intelligence isn't new—retailers have relied on it for years in pricing, supply chain, and labor planning. The novelty lies in generative AI and so-called “agentic AI,” which she characterizes as incremental rather than revolutionary thus far. The panel agrees that while these tools can deliver efficiency, they're unlikely to transform the top or bottom line soon—though Amazon's deep AI and automation investments continue to give it a strategic edge.Looking ahead, holiday forecasts are mixed. Deloitte predicts growth under 3.5%, while eMarketer forecasts just 1.2%. Neil and Sucharita expect more resilience driven by consumers' determination to celebrate. The panel also highlights Amazon's bold logistics move to fulfill orders for Walmart and Shein, underscoring its unmatched infrastructure advantage.The discussion closes with Steve, Michael, Neil and Sucharita each offering what's on their radar screen, including Saks Global's financial turbulence, macroeconomic signals like inflation and jobs data, and AI's potential labor impacts.  About UsSteve Dennis is a strategic advisor and keynote speaker focused on growth and innovation, who has also been named one of the world's top retail influencers.

Originally released July, 2023. In this episode of Relationships at Work, communications and leadership nerd (and host) Russel Lolacher highlights the gap between leadership assumptions and employee reality.Numerous surveys have been conducted by SHRM, Deloitte, Forrester showing executives have a very different perception of their organizational culture than those who work for them.Russel asks the question, "but how do you know?" to challenge those leaders who make assumptions, dismiss data they don't agree with or have far too small of a network to know what's really going on. He also offers ideas on how to embrace employees and the challenges they face. And connect with me for more great content!

In banking, every second matters. Fraud happens in milliseconds. Customers demand instant answers. And AI can only deliver value if it's powered by live, real-time data. Yet many banks are still relying on batch reports and outdated systems, making decisions based on yesterday's insights. The shift can't wait. Forrester predicts that by 2025, half of all businesses will use AI-powered self-service as their primary customer touchpoint. That future won't be possible without real-time data at the core. Banks that leverage streaming data will transform customer experiences, manage risks more efficiently, and unlock the full potential of AI. Those who don't risk being left behind. Today, I'm joined by Guillaume Aymé, CEO of Lenses.io and a leading voice on data innovation. Together, we'll explore why real-time data is becoming the lifeblood of modern banking, the hurdles institutions must overcome, and how to build the foundation for AI-driven success.

Segment 1 - Interview with Jeff Pollard Introducing Forrester's AEGIS Framework: Agentic AI Enterprise Guardrails For Information Security For this episode's interview, we're talking to Forrester analyst Jeff Pollard. I'm pulling this segment's description directly from the report's executive summary, which I think says it best: As AI agents and agentic AI are introduced to the enterprise, they present new challenges for CISOs. Traditional cybersecurity architectures were designed for organizations built around people. Agentic AI destroys that notion. In the near future, organizations will build for goal-oriented, ephemeral, scalable, dynamic agents where unpredictable emergent behaviors are incentivized to accomplish objectives. This change won't be as simple or as straightforward as mobile and cloud — and that's bad news for security leaders who in some cases still find themselves challenged by cloud security. Segment 2 - Weekly News Then, in the enterprise security news, there's funding and acquisitions, but we're not going to talk about them AI's gonna call the cops on you and everyone's losing money on it and Anthropic agreed to pay for all the copyright infringement they did when training models and Otter.ai got sued for recording millions of conversations without consent Burger King got embarrassed and their lawyers didn't like it NPM package mayhem certificate authority hijinks AI darwin awards All that and more, on this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly. Segment 3 - Executive Interviews from Black Hat 2025 Interview with Rohit Dhamankar from Fortra Live from Black Hat 2025 in Las Vegas, Matt Alderman sits down with Rohit Dhamankar, VP of Product Strategy at Fortra, to dive deep into the evolving world of offensive security. From red teaming and pen testing to the rise of AI-powered threat simulation and continuous penetration testing, this conversation is a must-watch for CISOs, security architects, and compliance pros navigating today's dynamic threat landscape. Learn why regulatory bodies worldwide are now embedding offensive security requirements into frameworks like PCI DSS 4.0, and how organizations can adopt scalable strategies—even with limited red team resources. Rohit breaks down the nuances of purple teaming, AI-assisted red teaming, and the role of BAS platforms in enhancing defense postures. Whether you're building in-house capabilities or leveraging external partners, this interview reveals key insights on security maturity, strategic outsourcing, and the future of cyber offense and defense convergence.

Interview with Michael Leland from Island At BlackHat 2025 in Las Vegas, Matt Alderman sits down with Michael Leland, VP Field CTO at Island, to tackle one of cybersecurity's most urgent realities: compromised credentials aren't a possibility — they're a guarantee. From deepfakes to phishing and malicious browser plug-ins, attackers aren't “breaking in” anymore… they're logging in. Michael reveals how organizations can protect stolen credentials from being used, why the browser is now the second weakest link in enterprise security, and how Island's enterprise browser can enforce multi-factor authentication at critical moments, block unsanctioned logins in real time, and control risky extensions with live risk scoring of 230,000+ Chrome plug-ins. Key takeaways: Why credential compromise is inevitable — and how to stop credential use How presentation layer DLP prevents data leaks inside and outside apps Real-time blocking of phishing logins and unsanctioned SaaS access Plug-in risk scoring, version pinning, and selective extension control Enabling BYOD securely — even after a catastrophic laptop loss Why many users never go back to Chrome, Edge, or Safari after switching Segment Resources: https://www.island.io/blog/how-the-enterprise-browser-neutralizes-the-risks-of-compromised-credentials This segment is sponsored by Island.

In this episode, Mack McGee, Chief Marketing Officer at CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, shares how the organization earned top marks for customer experience in Forrester's 2025 rankings and discusses the importance of trust, personalization, and simplifying healthcare interactions for members.

Marketers' roles are changing, but their goals are still the same: reach and engage customers, meeting them where they are, and for better or worse, often needing to do more with less while delivering greater value. Agility requires both adapting to change quickly while also having the wisdom to know which changes truly matter. It demands a delicate balance between embracing new technologies and staying laser-focused on core business objectives. Today, we are here in New York City at Opticon25. We are going to talk about the growing role of AI for both marketers and consumers, how organizations can leverage an agentic platform to create better internal and external customer experiences, and how marketers can both do more with less while delivering exponentially greater value. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Rupali Jain, Chief Product Officer and Kevin Li, SVP Product at Optimizely. About Rupali JainRupali Jain is the Chief Product Officer at Optimizely.

Threat modeling is often called the foundation of secure software design—anticipating attackers, uncovering flaws, and embedding resilience before a single line of code is written. But does it really work in practice?In this episode of AppSec Contradictions, Sean Martin explores why threat modeling so often fails to deliver:It's treated as a one-time exercise, not a continuous processResearch shows teams who put risk first discover 2x more high-priority threatsYet fewer than 4 in 10 organizations use systematic threat modeling at scaleDrawing on insights from SANS, Forrester, and Gartner, Sean breaks down the gap between theory and reality—and why evolving our processes, not just our models, is the only path forward.

We explore the monumental shift from SEO to GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) as AI platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity become the new front doors to the internet, fundamentally changing how customers discover businesses online.• Traffic patterns are transforming as users get answers directly from AI without clicking through to websites• Content optimized for AI interpretation requires different approaches than traditional keyword-focused SEO• Organizations must shift from optimizing for keywords to building comprehensive topic frameworks• Users coming from AI platforms are more informed and show higher conversion rates despite lower overall traffic• Measuring success requires new metrics beyond traditional organic traffic numbers• Authority signals are evolving from backlinks to expertise indicators and authoritative source citations• Quality content formatted properly for AI consumption can be picked up and highlighted within days• Forward-thinking brands are experimenting with FAQ formats and structured content that AI models prefer• The future belongs to specialists who demonstrate deep expertise in specific niches• Human oversight remains essential to prevent recursive loops of "AI generating content for AI"The digital landscape is experiencing its most significant transformation since the rise of Google, as AI platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity increasingly become users' first stop for information. This fundamental shift challenges everything we thought we knew about digital visibility.In this eye-opening discussion, we decode the evolution from traditional SEO to what experts variously call GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), AEO, or AIO. Our guests Rishi Mallik, Chief Growth Officer at Workato, and Eric Nalbone, client strategy lead at Position2, share frontline insights into how this transition is reshaping marketing strategies and customer journeys.The conversation reveals how forward-thinking organizations are adapting to a world where traffic patterns are dramatically changing. Rishi describes seeing approximately 20% of Workato's traffic now self-reported as coming from generative AI platforms.  Meanwhile, Eric challenges us to reconsider success metrics, asking provocatively: "If revenue is up but traffic is down, isn't that a win for everyone?"We explore the tactical shifts required to thrive in this new environment: moving from keyword-centric content to topic frameworks, optimizing content structure for AI interpretation, and rethinking how authority and expertise signals are communicated. You'll discover why FAQ formats perform well with AI models, how "borrowing authority" through explicit citation differs from traditional backlink strategies, and why creating comprehensive content hubs trumps isolated keyword-targeted pages.Rajiv Parikh: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajivparikh/Rishi Mallik: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rishimallik/Rishi Mallik is currently the Chief Growth Officer at Workato, an AI-driven integration platform that automates workflows across enterprises, recognized as a Gartner and Forrester leader in the automation space.

Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) are set to take center stage as they deal with their father's actions. Ridge dodged Thomas's query about his relationship with Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig). This move, coupled with Ridge's decision to return to Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), leaves Thomas and Steffy fuming. Spoilers suggest that the siblings may unite against their father and potentially oust him from Forrester Creations. Bold and Beautiful sees Ridge's decision impacts not only his relationship with his children but also with Eric Forrester (John McCook), who had encouraged him to go back to Brooke. Thomas and Steffy's disillusionment might extend to their grandfather Eric, causing further ripples within the family. Bold and the Beautiful sees Thomas and Steffy's retaliation against Ridge, Brooke, and Eric could involve the use of Forrester Creations as a tool for revenge. With the current ownership split, the siblings might not have enough power to pull a coup, but changes in the company's ownership could tip the scales in their favor. B&B sees Taylor is heartbroken after being dumped by Ridge and is expected to leave the Forrester mansion. There are potential conflicts as Katie Logan (Heather Tom) and Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) might hassle Taylor on her way out.  You are listening to Belynda from Soap Dirt.

Time for a Would You Rather Wednesday edition of Glenn Clark Radio, lots to go over on the show this morning as we continue re-hashing Sunday night's Ravens-Bills game and try to put it behind us as we shift focus towards this weekend's home opener vs the Brown. Plus the Orioles continue to be the more pleasant story in town as Kyle Bradish tossed 7 innings of 1-run ball before yet another Samuel Basallo walkoff hit, to slightly less fanfare than his first. It's a Wednesday so that means Drew Forrester, of DrewsMorningDish.com will be hanging out with us in studio, we'll play some Would You Rather, talk Ravens with him, maybe some Orioles and probably a little golf as well as whatever else happens to be on the mind of Drew. At 11:15am, our friend from FS1 and host of ‘First Things First' Chris Broussard check in as we talk some Ravens-Bills with Chris, get his temperature after the latest Ravens collapse, his outlook on the 2025 season and more. At 11:55am, we are going to talk some college football with Stevenson Mustangs HC Ed Hottle before Stevenson's home opener this weekend in Owings Mills at Mustang Stadium. And we are going to wrap the program by catching up with former voice of the Orioles, legendary baseball play-by-play broadcaster, Jon Miller to chat about a special weekend at Camden Yards while he was in attendance for the 30th anniversary of 2131!

AI is everywhere in application security today — but instead of fixing the problem of false positives, it often makes the noise worse. In this first episode of AppSec Contradictions, Sean Martin explores why AI in application security is failing to deliver on its promises.False positives dominate AppSec programs, with analysts wasting time on irrelevant alerts, developers struggling with insecure AI-written code, and business leaders watching ROI erode. Industry experts like Forrester and Gartner warn that without strong governance, AI risks amplifying chaos instead of clarifying risk.This episode breaks down:• Why 70% of analyst time is wasted on false positives• How AI-generated code introduces new security risks• What “alert fatigue” means for developers, security teams, and business leaders• Why automating bad processes creates more noise, not less 

It's not easy to keep pace with constant change. If you want to stand out, you need to pivot (yes, PIVOT!), adapt, and build real connection with your audience.That's the genius of Friends, a cultural phenomenon built on chemistry, community, and conversations that felt timeless. In this episode, we're decoding its lessons with the help of special guest Lisa Cole, Chief Marketing Officer at 2X.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from embracing constant pivots, building your own Central Perk with your community, and why team chemistry often matters more than individual expertise.About our guest, Lisa ColeLisa Cole is currently CMO at 2X. She's a strategic marketing leader with over 24 years of experience driving transformative growth for B2B technology and professional services. As a former CMO at Huron, FARO, and Cellebrite, she has earned industry recognition for enhancing brand positioning, optimizing demand generation, and leveraging AI to accelerate go-to-market strategies. Through her earned accolades from Sirius Decisions, Forrester, and CMO Alliance and her book The Revenue RAMP, she guides B2B leaders in achieving more with less using her proven frameworks. What B2B Companies Can Learn From Friends:Pivot, pivot, pivot. In marketing, staying still isn't an option. New channels, new buyer behaviors, and now AI advancements mean marketers are in a constant state of change. Lisa explains, “Pivot is certainly one, especially now that, it seems like every week there's a new advancement… marketing as a whole is pivot. We're constantly in a period of time in between pivots is compressing.” The same way Ross couldn't move that couch without shouting “Pivot!” every marketer today needs to be ready to shift strategy, adjust direction, and keep moving forward.Create your Central Perk. Every brand needs a place where buyers feel safe, connected, and part of something bigger than a transaction. For the Friends cast, it was Central Perk, a space where they could gather, vent, and support each other without judgment. Lisa says, “You have to create a place… where your target audience, your buyers feel safe to get together and meet and engage as a community… if you care about Central Perk for your buyers, then they'll care about you too.” In B2B, that means investing in communities and experiences where customers can be candid, connect with peers, and build trust—with your brand quietly in the background.Build team chemistry. The Friends cast worked because the chemistry was real—something greater than the sum of its parts. Marketing teams are no different. Lisa says, “Sometimes it's the chemistry that matters more than the expertise. It's not necessarily that I brought together six experts.  It's the way that they work together, sometimes is the real magic.” Great marketing doesn't just come from the smartest experts; it comes from teams (in-house, partners, or both) who click, collaborate, and push each other toward a shared mission.Quote“  I'm not necessarily saying to marketers that this cast needs to be a large in-house marketing team. I'm just simply saying that the people that are in the day-to-day business of executing marketing for your organization, that there is a chemistry between them and that they are working together in a unified way.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Lisa Cole, CMO at 2X[01:09] Why Friends?[01:52] The Role of CMO at 2X[03:34] The Creation of Friends[07:54] The Chemistry and Dynamics of Friends[21:59] Marketing Takeaways from Friends[32:17] The Humble Leader[37:36] Introducing Brand Gravity[48:11] 2X's Content Strategy[49:46] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Lisa on LinkedInLearn more about 2XAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: .Sermon NotesPT story: Overusing wrong muscles, learning what the right ones feel like.Spiritual parallel: Faith is our central muscle group.Often atrophied → we rely on self-reliance, control → strain.Goal: Learn what faith “feels like” and strengthen it.Faith grows in response to grace (10:19–22)Sequence: Grace → Faith.Grace = God's free kindness in Christ; Faith = saying “yes” to it.Ongoing: Grace sustains faith for life.When faith feels weak: Seek grace, not just “more faith.”Means of grace: Scripture, fellowship, worship, Communion, prayer.Faith sees that which is unseen (11:1)Assurance of future promises; conviction of present spiritual realities.Not irrational—like belief in love.Faith = “organ to see the invisible order” (F.F. Bruce).Example – Moses(11:26–27)A. In TemptationTurned from Egypt's visible wealth by looking to unseen reward in Christ.Application: Resist visible false promises (wealth, status, sex, control) by seeing greater unseen reward.B. In SufferingEndured Pharaoh's wrath by “seeing Him who is invisible.”Application: Fix eyes on unseen love, power, promises of God.Faith in suffering = visible witness to invisible grace.Discussion Questions:How would you define grace? What about faith?In Eph 2:8, Paul says we are saved by grace through faith. What does he mean? How are grace and faith linked?Give examples of something real that you can't see.Temptation and suffering are often the context in which faith is used and strengthened.  How so?In what way is someone's faith amid personal suffering a benefit to the whole community? Can you give examples of where you have seen this?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon? Email Randy Forrester ().

Industrial Talk is talking to Sandy Carielli, Vice President at Forrester Research about "Quantum Computing Cybersecurity". Scott Mackenzie and Sandy Carielli discuss the implications of quantum computing on cybersecurity. Quantum computers could potentially break today's public key cryptography, compromising data security.

Send us a textEnterprise IT decisions carry enormous financial and strategic weight, and analyst firms like Gartner, Forrester, and IDC play a pivotal role in shaping them. Yet despite the influence of their research, many IT and business leaders struggle to use it effectively. Too often, organizations rely on reprints or surface-level summaries without grasping the full context or limitations. When properly interpreted, analyst insights can significantly reduce risk, streamline decisions, and steer companies away from costly mistakes. But unlocking that value requires more than just access—it demands a clear understanding of how to translate dense reports into actionable guidance that aligns with specific business needs.In this episode, Sam Gupta engages in a LinkedIn live session with Carter Lusher—an industry analyst veteran with experience on both sides of the table, as a former Gartner and Ovum analyst, in a live LinkedIn session as they discuss the consumer's guide to IT industry analyst research and advice.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.
