The trio reflects on pressing topics such as privacy, cybersecurity, and the shifting landscape of cyber law, all while situated in one of Australia's most tech-forward cities.EJ Wise's Journey and PerspectiveEJ Wise shared her remarkable career path, starting as a member of the U.S. Air Force JAG Corps and later founding her boutique law firm in Australia in 2018. Her firsthand experience sheds light on Australia's relatively recent introduction of comprehensive cyber laws and the ongoing need to bridge the gap between technological innovation and legislative action.Educating Consumers: A Shared ResponsibilityA key focus of the conversation was consumer awareness. EJ highlighted the critical need for industries to take responsibility for educating the public, much like banks have historically done with financial literacy. The discussion also touched on embedding technological literacy into early education, ensuring children grow up with a clear understanding of privacy and digital security.Technology and Ethics in TensionThe group examined the ethical challenges posed by advancing technologies, especially regarding surveillance and data privacy. From facial recognition in retail spaces to the increasing capabilities of modern devices to monitor user behavior, the conversation drew thought-provoking parallels between these innovations and the history of advertising practices.The ethical implications of such technologies go far beyond convenience, raising questions about transparency, consent, and societal norms in the digital age.Legal Frameworks and Industry ResponsibilityMarco and Sean explored the evolving role of legal frameworks in holding industry players accountable for consumer safety and privacy.

The Digital Meetup welcomes special guest Gerry Crispin. Gerry has a bunch of well-founded data and well-formed suspicions about what education is likely to produce in the next 10 years if we don't intervene as employers. Do we need to further pique interest? Gerry borrows from the 10 principles of Burning Man, including radical inclusion and transparency as a means to demonstrate fairness. Maybe this applies to his thinking around candidate experience and expectations, but what else does it apply to? Takeaways Recruiters need to adapt and upskill to stay relevant in a changing landscape. Strategic talent work, such as workforce planning and addressing diversity, should be a focus for recruiters. There is a lack of collective leadership in the recruiting industry. Recruiters should embrace technology and think bigger about their role in the future of work.

Paul Morris is the Founder/Principal of Foundry Fundraising. We talk about the nonprofit sector's use of technology. Among the things we discuss: Technology won't do the work for you and doesn't solve all your problems. Nonprofits are woefully underinvesting in the technology tools needed, especially for development. There seems to be three reasons for this: Nonprofits don't have to invest wildly, they can and should be smart about it. The right tools supports the work. The impact of this underinvestment? Wasting a ton of time - staff, stakeholders, volunteers, donors. The risk to not investing has short-term and long-term impacts. We welcome support of the Nonprofit SnapCast via Patreon.

The IRDC is one of the best retail design conferences that there is bringing together the world of retailers, brands and experience place makers every year for two days of engaging conversations and pushing the discourse forward on what makes retailing relevant.You will find the archive of the NXTLVL Experience Design podcast on VMSD.com.Thanks also goes to Shop Association the only global retail trade association dedicated to elevating the in-store experience. SHOP Association represents companies and affiliates from 25 countries and brings value to their members through research, networking, education, events and awards. Check then out on SHOPAssociation.orgIn a minute, we'll dig into my discussion with Yasmine Mahmoudieh - architect, designer, and tech entrepreneur, who is internationally recognized for ground breaking designs and an unwavering commitment to sustainability. But first a few thoughts to set up our talk…****************I remember back in 2009 going to see the movie Avatar. The narrative followed a typical story of white man's colonization and subjugation of an indigenous peoples - this time on Pandora - a planet light years away from earth  - because presumably we had succeeded in trashing our own planet and had gone off to exploit the natural resources of another. There were multiple other themes written into the script but in principle it dealt with what I would characterize as corporate greed and the decimation of natural landscapes an indigenous peoples. The singular motivation to mining the planet's natural resources?... the billions of dollars of revenue for a large corporation who was mining a natural resource called “unobtanium.” Naturally the corporation militarized their operations under the guise that the 10 foot tall blue-skinned sapient humanoid indigenous peoples called the Na'vi - as well as the flora a fauna were… lethal. Another re-telling of big bad corporations exercising their power over a helpless people by flexing their military muscle with sociopathic leaders with a bent for murderous behavior. And adding insult to narrative injury, there was the denial of science and the well intentioned initiatives of creating Avatars of the Na'vi where humans could transfer consciousness into alien bodies cultivated in an enormous incubation chamber, that would then animate and go out among the native beings and infiltrate their community with the intention of learning more about them.OK... So this is a story that we're pretty familiar with.Notwithstanding the re-telling of a narrative we all know, James Cameron the director, brough the theater-going public compelling visualizations of an imaginary verdant jungle-like environment. On the big screen of a movie theater it was immersive and realistic. I'd say that for a while Avatar was a superb example of the use computer generated imagery that brought viewers into the experience of a distant world.Ok, so as not to get bogged down with the nasty-self-serving-humans part of the story ...…one of the key feature of this world was the Home Tree (which the humans eventually destroyed as well). Ok sorry I had to add that in…Home Tree - and all other tress for that matter - created an eco-system, an integrated network, that was connected underground. For the Na'vi people, Eywa was the living deity but not in the physical form humans would have expected.Eywa was a biological sentient guiding force of life and was physicalized through a network of plants, trees and other wildlife that stretched across Pandora. Eywa acted to maintain equilibrium among all things.Now… the obvious connection to be drawn here is the idea that our earth is a massive ecosystem and that there is an urgent need for our collective understanding that everything in this ecosystem works as a complex set of interdependencies. Everything is connected to everything. Our life energy is intimately intertwined with the planet's natural resources. We are from the earth. Though, I believe, many often see themselves as separated from it.I seem to have been having an increasing number of conversation with people where one of the things we end up returning to is sustainability. What the building industry does in negative ways to the environment and by consequence us, emotionally and physically.The conversation is encompassing straight up building practice, materials and finishes and what the CO2 contribution is to the planet when we build things, anything. Not a good thing for the environment and by extension not a good thing for us.and… what the effect of the building typologies has to do with our emotional well-being – a field called Neuroaesthetics – how he built environment affects us at a mind-body level.The sea of sameness and a building stock of overwhelming banality can undermine a sense of well-being. We are born experience expectant and our brains love novelty. The brain isn't fond of being bored.And yet, many of our urban environments are monotonous. So not only is the building industry responsible for about 40% of the CO2 in the atmosphere contributing to the global climate problem, the buildings we are putting into the environment are, from the neuroaesthetics point of view, often not contributing to our sense of wellbeing since they often create city blocks that area mundane.This is where my guest Yasmine Mahmoudieh enters the scene. Her work has earned her numerous international design awards, including the prestigious Global Sustainability Award in 2022 for her contributions to architecture and design in hospitality. With an illustrious career spanning prestigious institutions, she serves as a visiting professor at renowned establishments such as EHL Hotel School and Institut Paul Bocuse, inspiring emerging talents in the field. Mahmoudieh seamlessly integrates modern technologies with traditional design principles, crafting captivating and immersive spaces that engage all senses.With an unwavering passion for harmonizing functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability, Mahmoudieh continues to shape the future of architecture and design with her profound influence and visionary approach.So why the whole description of the movie Avatar and undergound connections between trees and other forest plants?Because that idea directly aligns with the emerging use of mycillium. What is mycelium?Mycellium is tubular thread of cells that spread through the soil underground and connects the roots of plants to one another. It is like the earth's natural internet. Everything is connected…Why would understanding the portential use of Mycellium as a building material be important ?Well… it is a naturally occurring substance and research suggests that it has a positive effect on enhancing immune strength.As a prominent global ambassador for eco-conscious practices, Yasmine Mahmoudieh pioneers sustainable construction techniques, utilizing recycled plastics through 3D printing and exploring mycelium as a substitute for traditional building materials.The Na'vi and Eywa had something goin' on. And humans just bulldozed it all in search for a rock in the ground. A familiar story with tragic outcomes.I think that the more we turn to ancient indigenous traditions, understand them and perhaps augment them with modern science, the more we may find solutions to some of the more profound eco challenges we now face.ABOUT DAVID KEPRON:LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/david-kepron-9a1582bWebsites: https://www.davidkepron.com    (personal website)vmsd.com/taxonomy/term/8645  (Blog)Email: david.kepron@NXTLVLexperiencedesign.comTwitter: DavidKepronPersonal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidkepron/NXTLVL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nxtlvl_experience_design/Bio:David Kepron is a multifaceted creative professional with a deep curiosity to understand ‘why', ‘what's now' and ‘what's next'.

MEDIATION, HOSTILITY, AND EMOTIONS EP 111 HOST: Beverly Price, Divorce & Empowerment Coach GUEST: Ellice (Lisa) Halpern, Founder/Principal Mediator, Little Falls Mediation SUMMARY: The divorce process can be challenging, triggering a torrent of emotions that range from fear, grief, loss, sadness, and anxiety to anger and frustration. In such trying times, effective mediation can serve as a vital lifeline, offering a safe space to express your feelings and concerns without descending into hostility. Mediation provides a structured platform for open communication and negotiation for fairness, enabling spouses to work through their issues with the help of a neutral third party. By addressing the underlying emotions and grievances constructively, mediation strives to pave the way for amicable resolutions and, in the process, helps ease the burdens of separation, preserves relationships, and fosters a sense of closure and healing. In this episode of Her Empowered Divorce, your Host, Beverly Price, talks to Ellice (Lisa) Halpern, Founder/Principal mediator of Little Falls Mediation. Together, they discuss mediation, hostility, and emotions to provide you the tools to navigate your divorce journey with stability, control, grace, and resilience. KEY TAKEAWAYS: What does mediation look like when done the right way? The most important thing about mediation is to empower you to have control over the process and the outcome.There are four prompts for Mediation: Identify the issue, pick an issue and brainstorm all kinds of options, evaluate those options by asking questions and doing reality testing, and come to a joint decision. How do I identify a great mediator vs. a not-so-great mediator? It depends on what you are looking for, but check if they are certified by your state, if you are comfortable talking to them, and if they have the qualities you want, such as kindness, rapid response, and confidence. I want my mediation results to be fair. In mediation, you have the flexibility you don't have in court. In court, the judge gives an order, but in mediation, you can negotiate what is fair to you. NOTABLE QUOTES:Acknowledging your emotions during meditation will empower you, create a legitimate sense of control and fairness, and create the opportunity to preserve the relationship. (Ellice) Making mediation a business-like transaction, putting those emotions aside, and viewing it as a neutral business transaction is not easy, but it can be done. (Beverly) Mediation is not therapy, but it does not ignore the emotions; you are allowed to pause, take a break, get a drink, and choose whether you want to continue or not. (Ellice) The cornerstone of meditation is disclosure and confidentiality, and it's voluntary, so if someone does not want to share financial information, they are not a candidate for mediation. (Ellice) Mediation can be a tool used in situations of domestic violence, but when there is abuse, a lawyer can help you in a better way than mediation. (Ellice) It's important for you to have professionals you can consult with, whether it's a lawyer, divorce financial neutral, tax person, parenting coordinator, therapist, divorce coach, or real estate professional, who can guide you along the way with your mediator. (Ellice) ABOUT OUR GUEST: Ellice (Lisa) Halpern launched Little Falls Mediation in early 2015 to help private clients who approached her to mediate issues related to marriage, separation, and divorce, as well as business and community matters.

Howdy, y'all, and welcome to The Cyber Ranch Podcast!  That's Tim Rohrbaugh, Founder/Principal at DefaultDenySec, former CISO for JetBlue Airways, advisor, investor: yup!  Another Cyber Ranch guest with an awesome history!  Tim and Allan were chatting a while back about budgeting cybersecurity programs, and they found out that they disagreed on a rather key point.  In true Cyber Ranch fashion, Allan immediately asked Tim to come back to the show and to dig into the issue with him.  They are starting with disagreement, which always makes for a better show... Allan maintains that the cybersecurity budget should be tied to specific risks identified vs. specific business processes and/or assets as determined by Business Impact Analysis. In other words, we identify WHAT we care about, use BIA to tell ourselves HOW MUCH we care, and then we chart the risks to those processes and assets.  We then stack rank the risks based on impact but also plausibility (see prior show with Andy Ellis and Chris Roberts as to why Allan uses plausibility and not probability).  We then can sit down with the business and say: For $x we can address these top 5 risks For $y we can address these top 7 risks Etc, etc. Budgets are tight? Lower the risks addressed.  It's that simple! NOTE: Allan is cheating here with this simplification.  Run rate matters.  Our existing tech stack is already in play before we address specific risks.  So there is accretion there that must be acknowledged.  And the question is also begged:  How much does the already established run rate actually tackle specific risks vs. broad strokes?  EDR, for example, should already be present.  Do we say that EDR addresses the ransomware risk or the data leakage risk of HR data or the data theft risk of customer data, and/or…  You get the point.  Allan's model is not perfect.  But what Allan has ALWAYS stood against is the idea that the cyber budget should simply be expressed as percentage of revenue or percentage of IT budget or percentage of anything external to cybersecurity, really. Tim, disagrees and finds flaws in Allan's model: Should we be tied to IT budget at all?  Tim says YES! Should we only be a percentage of revenue or overall organizational budget?  Tim says YES! What is the value in capping budget via external measures like %age of IT spend or %age of revenue? How do we tackle run rate vs. specific projects in your model? How does one choose what remains and what gets cut from the to-do list when budget tightening occurs? What other benefits exist to Tim's model? Is there a way to reconcile the two models? Is that reconciliation even necessary?

In this episode, Ryan concentrates on executing two distinct campaigns for Superhuman, while Kevin focuses on reaching out to sales leaders. One campaign centers around standard outbound call services, while the other is geared toward closed lost leads within the automation and robotics sector.During one of their conversations, Kevin manages to obtain two additional phone numbers, prompting discussions on the best approach for subsequent contact. In another scenario, Ryan follows up with a lead who had previously shown disinterest and was preparing for a flight. He initiates the conversation by inquiring about the trip and transitions into discussing the prospect's business needs. Meanwhile, in another call, Ryan successfully reaches the company's accountant and secures a lead to the sales department. Kevin underscores the importance of waiting on hold only when it leads to a connection with a more relevant contact if the prospect is well-informed about their schedule.Ryan then engages with a client facing overcapacity issues. He inquires about the client's market and client type, although it remains undisclosed. Despite this, Ryan receives positive feedback yet regrets forgetting to request referrals. Both Kevin and Ryan observe the evolving landscape of cold calls, noting a shift towards cold connections via LinkedIn and email in the current B2B landscape. Kevin adopts a double-tap approach in one of the calls. He underscores the importance of avoiding assumptions about negative reasons for missed calls and emphasizes the need to put oneself in the prospect's shoes. At the same time, he advises against excessive follow-ups, which can become counterproductive.In one of his attempts, Ryan encounters voicemail but remains persistent, continuing with his pitch and attempting to schedule a callback. Kevin recommends placing greater emphasis on live calls and mentions the uncertain legality of ringless voicemails, which should be verified before use. Additionally, they highlight the importance of avoiding text messaging when reaching out to B2B contacts.Throughout these cold call scenarios, Kevin and Ryan offer insights into various engagement strategies. They emphasize the need for thoughtful and professional interactions, persistence, adaptability, and the significance of building rapport to understand how to provide value to prospects by navigating their company structure to find the correct contacts. Ryan: "I did not ask for a referral as the prospect was a gate-keeper. I still kept going on with the call because the prospect did ask some questions and usually that is an indication. If the seemingly gate-keeper is asking questions, you should consider: what does that typically say about their knowledge or insight of what is going on in the business? You should figure out their competence even if they are in a receptionist or secretary position, you must understand if they have an insight of where the problems lie within the business."Timestamps: [00:00:52] Introduction about Ryan[00:18:24] Generating leads from empty prospects[00:21:39] Adjusting to the prospect's needs and pivoting[00:30:03] Turning rejection into referrals [00:37:37] Reading and understanding gate-keepers[00:44:25] Adapting and building on unresponsive prospects [00:44:50] Remain prepared to be called back[00:49:00] The use of double taps and triple tapsConnect and learn more about Ryan through this link:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanpereusConnect with Kevin:Kevin Hopp: https://www.linkedin.com/in/khopp/More live conversations mean more?
