Podcasts about GCS

In this episode of Pearls On, Gloves Off, Mary sits down with Jacqueline Lee, Senior Vice President and General Counsel at Flynn Group, to unpack what it takes to lead legal, compliance, and risk functions at scale. Flynn is the parent company behind brands like Panera, Taco Bell, Wendy's, Planet Fitness, and more, with 75,000+ employees across the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand. Jacqueline shares her journey from big law to being unexpectedly tapped for a GC role just a year into her in-house life. Along the way, she reveals what's really changed (and what hasn't) in that transition — especially around how legal advice must shift to be more strategic, practical, and business-aligned. In this conversation, you'll learn: How to translate your legal skills for non-lawyer clients. Jacqueline stresses the importance of tailoring advice to how business leaders think and act — not how lawyers talk. Why “perfect information” is a myth in-house. You'll hear how GCs must balance risk, ambiguity, and the need to move fast. How to lead through crisis and uncertainty. Jacqueline's leadership during the pandemic reveals lessons in transparency, empathy, and restoring a feeling of control. How to demonstrate real value to the business. She explains her shift from narrative legal reports to visual dashboards, metrics tied to core business KPIs, and proactive reporting. The case for in-house litigation. Flynn handles much of its litigation internally; Jacqueline explains how they pick which matters to pursue internally vs. outsource — and why she still loves law. How to recruit, grow, and scale a legal team. We dig into her hiring philosophy, aligning on values, and the challenges of hybrid teams. Pricing and partnership with outside counsel. Jacqueline critiques the inefficiencies of hourly billing and shares how value-based arrangements can align incentives and build trust. If you're an aspirational in-house counsel or a legal leader grappling with how to prove impact, this episode is packed with insights you can start applying now.

Contributor: Alec Coston, MD Case Report Summary: A 17-year-old female involved in a motor vehicle collision presented to a rural emergency facility via personally operated vehicle. During workup and initial CT scan, the patient began rapidly decompensating with CT revealing a 1.5cm epidural hematoma with 7mm of midline shift. The patient went from being able to walk and talk to being obtunded with a blown left pupil and unresponsive. Following intubation, the patient was being prepared for transport but potential delays required immediate emergency evacuation of the hematoma via a Burr Hole. A traditional Burr Drill was not immediately available at the facility, so an improvised Burr Drill using an Intraosseous (IO) drill was used. 35mL of blood was removed from the hematoma and the patient immediately improved from a GCS of 3 to GCS of 8. The patient was transferred to a higher level of care facility, extubated the following day, and made a full neurological recovery.  Educational Pearls: What is an epidural hematoma? An epidural hematoma is a collection of blood between the dura mater (outermost layer of the meninges) and the skull, whereas a subdural hematoma is a collection of blood between the dura mater and arachnoid mater. Both can be life threatening depending on location and size. Epidural hematomas tend to be arterial, and are typically secondary to trauma and can rapidly expand, but with timely recognition and evacuation of the bleed, favorable outcomes are often possible. What are typical intracranial pressures and at what levels do they become pathologic? Typical intracranial pressure (ICP) varies by age, but past infancy and early childhood, adolescents and adults have a value typically between 8-15mmHg. Values exceeding 20mmHg become pathologic and rise exponentially with increased volume. Initial symptoms may include headache, nausea, and vomiting, but with increased pressures may progress to more life threatening symptoms such as loss of consciousness, cranial nerve palsies, pupillary constriction or dilation (sign of herniation), and respiratory irregularities. What is the takeaway in timing of epidural hematomas? Older studies show that evacuation of a hematoma with lateralizing features before the two hour mark of coma symptom onset is correlated with decreased mortality (ranging from 15-17%), but beyond 2 hours the mortality increases to well over 50%. Though mortality statistics have grown more variable, early targeted evacuation of epidural hematomas still remains critical for improved patient outcomes. In austere conditions with limited resources, improvisation with interosseous drills and needles can improve patient outcomes and achieve the target therapy for epidural hematomas.

Welcome to 'AI Lawyer Talking Tech,' the podcast that explores the future of law in the machine age. Today, we unpack a professional landscape defined by rapid acceleration and profound risk. The legal world is currently experiencing a foundational shift, driven by artificial intelligence that simultaneously promises exponential efficiency and introduces critical new liabilities. We examine the dynamic efforts by courts and policymakers to establish boundaries for AI-generated content and copyright, even as legal tech leaders introduce innovative solutions that streamline complex documentation workflows with over 99% accuracy. However, this new reality brings inherent danger: sophisticated cyber espionage groups are targeting U.S. legal firms for high-value national security intelligence using backdoors like BRICKSTORM, while pervasive data breaches compromise sensitive personal information across the healthcare and academic sectors. From law schools mandating AI fluency to state initiatives testing legal practice reforms using new technology like chatbots, the industry is actively balancing the promise of augmented intelligence against the threat of "AI slop," where rigor and verification remain paramount to ensure documents are enforceable. Join us as we dissect these crucial developments shaping compliance, commerce, and the core definition of legal value today.Copyright and AI: Controlling Rights and Managing Risks; Morgan Lewis, September 23, 20252025-09-24 | Ethics, Info, Tech: Contested Voices, Values, SpacesEdelson Lechtzin Investigates Data Breach for Albany Gastro Clients2025-09-24 | InvestorsHangout.comWashington becomes latest state to test legal practice reforms2025-09-24 | ReutersInnovative Integration Revolutionizes Legal Documentation Workflow2025-09-24 | InvestorsHangout.comChinese Hackers Steal Data from U.S. Legal, Tech Firms for More Than a Year2025-09-24 | Security BoulevardSmartAdvocate's Consistent Excellence Shines at Awards Ceremony2025-09-24 | InvestorsHangout.comValparaiso University Faces Data Breach Investigation2025-09-24 | InvestorsHangout.comUnderstanding the Implications of the Sturgis Hospital Data Breach2025-09-24 | InvestorsHangout.comAccelerate Sales With CLM Implementation2025-09-24 | Epiq SystemsTop Law Schools In Nevada: Acceptance Rates, Rankings, & Academics2025-09-24 | Lexinter Law DirectoryLaw School In Wyoming: University Of Wyoming Law School2025-09-24 | Lexinter Law DirectoryAmy Ross Highlights Importance of AI Fluency for New Attorneys in Reuters2025-09-24 | Ropes & GrayAI-Written Contracts: What to Do When a Client Brings You One2025-09-24 | Wisconsin Lawyer MagazineLegal Department Operations Index 2025: LDO teams join GCs' quest for value2025-09-24 | Thomson ReutersMichelle Kallen Talks Data Center Regulation on Bloomberg Law's "On The Merits" Podcast2025-09-24 | SteptoeUNC5221 Uses BRICKSTORM Backdoor to Infiltrate U.S. Legal and Technology Sectors2025-09-24 | The Hacker NewsMCN Law September round-up | ‘Can ChatGPT win my case?'2025-09-24 | Motor Cycle NewsWhitepaper open for comment: The Unfinished Digital Estate: Culture, Law, and Technology After Death2025-09-24 | OpenID FoundationGuest Column: As AI Helps Close the Justice Gap, Will It Save the Legal Profession or Replace It?2025-09-24 | LawSitesTop 50 Legal Employers Hiring Now: Where the Opportunities Are in 20252025-09-24 | JDJournal[Video] 5 Key Takeaways | The Law of the Machine (Learning): Solving Complex AI Challenges2025-09-24 | JD SupraCities Need a New Model for Incentivizing Responsible AI2025-09-24 | TechPolicy.press5 Key Takeaways | Faulty Intelligence Responding to an AI Incident2025-09-24 | JD SupraThe Living Playbook: How AI Will Truly Transform Legal Work2025-09-24 | Legaltech on MediumThe Case for Multilingual AI in Global Legal Operations2025-09-24 | Legaltech on MediumIf Lawyers Don't Trust AI, They Won't Use It2025-09-24 | Artificial Lawyer

There's a common saying in construction: “You're not doing your job unless your name's on the porta john.” Jason and Mark Story break it down and break it apart. Disrespect is not a badge of honor. It's a warning sign that leadership is failing. Instead, they show how real leaders win trust and build high-performing jobs by supporting their teams, not fighting them. You'll hear field-tested stories of: Turning messy, conflict-heavy projects into stable, clean, and respectful jobsites. Why adding restrooms and daily worker huddles can instantly boost morale and productivity. How trades are already bending over backwards and what GCs must do to better support them Why “leadership” boils down to one thing: removing roadblocks so your people can succeed. This episode is about more than porta john graffiti. It's about flipping the culture of construction from disrespect to dignity, from chaos to flow.   If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.  And if you really like the Elevate Construction podcast, I'd appreciate you telling a friend (Maybe even two

Competition may sound like it sharpens us, but in practice it creates waste, weakens innovation, and leaves most of us struggling while a tiny fraction benefits. Cooperation, on the other hand, unlocks speed, quality, and respect for people. In this episode, Jason shares: A powerful example of how rivalry once stopped firefighters from saving lives. Why Asian manufacturers thrive on total participation while U.S. industries stall. How CPM schedules and competitive contracts reinforce the wrong behaviors. The overlooked “ninth waste” in construction: competition itself. Personal stories of being punished for helping others and why that mindset is broken. He challenges leaders to imagine a jobsite where trades, GCs, and partners stop hoarding information and start sharing openly. What would happen if instead of fighting each other, we fought waste together? If you're ready to flip the script from rivalry to results, this is the episode to hit play on.   If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.  And if you really like the Elevate Construction podcast, I'd appreciate you telling a friend (Maybe even two

Kevin Morris joins me to explore the deeper reasons behind burnout in physical therapy—and why staying connected to your personal values may be the key to surviving (and thriving) in this profession. Kevin opens up about his unexpected entry into PT through a high school job, the physical toll of clinical work, and why he's turned to both resistance training and civic engagement as lifelines outside the clinic. We talk about the importance of protecting your body as a PT, the value of community service, and how students can discover their “why” through simple reflection on what already brings them joy. Kevin also unpacks the financial challenges of DPT education and advocates for structural change in the cost and delivery of higher ed. If you're searching for purpose, balance, and a bit of inspiration in your career journey—this one hits all the right notes.

Jason's back, and this time we're going deeper. From his early classroom failures to his passionate critiques of the grading system, Jason Turner pulls back the curtain on what it really means to teach—not just art, but agency. We dig into how subjectivity can be a strength, why guiding questions trump easy answers, and how teachers can help students own their learning journeys without spoon-feeding them. Jason shares the philosophies that have shaped his unique classroom culture, where failure isn't just tolerated—it's part of the lesson plan. If you've ever wondered how to foster true critical thinking in kids, or what it looks like to hold space for students to grow at their own pace, this conversation hits home.

I sat down with Jason Turner—graphic designer turned middle school art teacher—to explore how subjectivity isn't a limitation in education, but a secret weapon. Jason walks us through his journey from corporate design to the classroom, how burnout led him to teaching, and what he's learned guiding kids through one of the most emotionally turbulent times of their lives. We unpack what it means to teach decision-making, why failing publicly is essential, and how standards don't have to stifle creativity. Jason makes a strong case for trusting kids to think independently, framing failure as a growth tool, and valuing “soft skills” as real-life essentials. Whether you're an educator, parent, or someone passionate about shaping future humans, this episode is a warm, funny, and thoughtful reminder that confidence, creativity, and connection are just as important as curriculum.

In this episode of The Corporate Counsel Show, recorded at last week's Australian Law Forum, we explore the day-to-day experience of working as a general counsel in a faith-based institution and what other law department leaders can learn from lawyers in such roles. Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Seventh Day Adventist Church general counsel Igor Radonjić about how he came to be a “church lawyer” and why the role was appealing to him, what the day-to-day looks like, his own journey with faith, how his faith intersects with driving forward the purpose of a faith-based institution, and how his faith has evolved since starting in the role. Radonjić also delves into the biggest challenges and trends facing faith-based institutions right now, how law departments can better support them, what will constitute best practice for GCs like himself, and what other law department leaders can learn from the expertise of GCs in faith-based institutions.

In this episode of Season 2, A. Valerie Mirko, Partner at Armstrong Teasdale LLP and leader of the firm's Securities Regulation and Litigation Practice, joins William Nelson, Director of Public Policy and Associate General Counsel at the Investment Adviser Association, for a timely conversation with Michelle Heisner, Partner at Baker McKenzie LLP and a member of the Firm's Global Corporate and Securities Practice Group.

The market is changing, and it's not just about inflation or interest rates. It's rewriting valuations, reworking supply chains, and reshaping your disclosures. This episode of The Pre-Read, brought to you by Workiva, explores what happens when market volatility meets materiality, and why CFOs, GCs, and audit chairs are all paying attention. We feature insights from Nick Mazing of AlphaSense and Josh Gertsch, Workiva Industry Principal for Capital Markets, on the unpredictable forces at play. Nick discusses the messy and varied impact of tariffs, noting that the deal-by-deal approach has created an unpredictable environment, even for companies expected to benefit. He also touches on how AI is maturing in corporate disclosures, the return of M&A, and the growing number of companies allocating to Bitcoin. Josh provides a historical perspective on the IPO market, highlighting the biggest boom in over 20 years, followed by some of the worst years ever, and its current upward trend. He explains that despite a large pipeline of companies ready to go public, market volatility—especially with changes over 20%—is preventing deals from being priced. He advises companies to focus on what they can control, such as refining their equity story and ensuring operational readiness, while they wait for stability.

Fletcher and Chad dive deep into one of the most critical and often overlooked challenges in scaling a commercial construction business: taking the estimating hat off the owner's head. They explore: Why owners must eventually delegate estimating to scale effectively. The two main paths: grow an estimator internally vs. recruit one from a competitor. Growing your own estimators: Preferred degrees, expected timeline (3–5 years), and how to differentiate between technical estimating and executive pricing strategy. When to hold on to pricing and sales as an owner even after hiring an estimator. Outsourcing and offshoring estimating work: what works for trades, what doesn't for GCs, and how relationships remain key. How to attract experienced talent from competitors: understanding the top 3 gripes they have—compensation, lack of influence, and burnout in “bid factories.” Recruiting strategies: From warm outreach and pain-point probing to long-game relationship building with high ROI. Key Takeaways: Investing in the right estimator—whether a junior you train or a seasoned pro—can unlock millions in revenue growth. Don't confuse estimating with pricing or sales. Each has a distinct role and impact. Treat outsourced/offshored team members like internal staff: communicate, manage, and integrate them thoughtfully. Pay and empower your estimators—they're often your #1 revenue generator.  

Ben Whybrow returns for part two of our conversation, and this time we dive even deeper into the art—and science—of clinical communication. From the way stories create emotional buy-in to how AI could reshape patient interactions, Ben brings insight, humor, and clarity to the complexities of modern healthcare. We break down what makes reassurance effective (or not), how to communicate with patients who don't agree with your clinical narrative, and why understanding beliefs is just as important as understanding symptoms. Ben also shares his take on the NHS's AI roadmap and how future clinicians may have to adapt to tech-based frontlines. Whether you're a new grad or a seasoned clinician, this episode is filled with actionable strategies to improve how you connect, explain, and empower.

What happens when we stop treating communication as a soft skill and start recognizing it as the core of effective patient care? In this episode, I talk with UK-based physio and medical communication educator Ben Whybrow about why connection, tone, and storytelling matter more than ever in healthcare. Ben shares how his journey through persistent pain care and teaching at Cambridge Medical School led him to a powerful realization: if your patient doesn't feel heard, your plan won't work. We dive deep into motivational interviewing, emotional intelligence, the parallels between sales and healthcare, and why open-ended questions are the real clinical superpower. Ben also unpacks the cultural shift toward more psychologically informed care, and how students and seasoned clinicians alike can improve outcomes by asking better questions. This episode is packed with insight, perspective, and plenty of British charm.

What does it look like when a general counsel doesn't just adopt AI—but rewires her entire legal function around it? In this episode, Mary O'Carroll sits down with Shannon Thyme Klinger, Chief Legal Officer at Moderna and President of Moderna Charitable Foundation. Named by the Financial Times as one of the most innovative GCs of the past two decades, Shannon is reshaping what it means to lead a legal team—and a profession—through profound change. In this episode: “AI won't replace lawyers, but…” Shannon lays out her bold vision: why lawyers who don't harness AI may get left behind—and how her team at Moderna is using GPTs, reasoning models, and agents to transform everything from contracts to compliance. From Skepticism to Buy-In: How Shannon got a room full of reluctant legal leaders to see AI's potential—by showing, not telling. The Self-Service Revolution: Why Moderna's business teams now use AI-powered contract tools to answer 90% of their questions—freeing legal to focus on higher-value work. Fearless Experimentation: The mindset shift that changed everything: fail fast, learn faster. Beyond Legal: Why Shannon sees legal ops as a strategic engine, not a back-office function—and how her team is training other departments to work smarter with AI. The Big Picture: Shannon's take on the future of legal—what's at risk, what needs to change, and why it's time for GCs and law firms to rewrite the playbook. If you've ever wondered what real legal transformation looks like—led from the top, grounded in purpose, and driven by tech—this conversation is your blueprint.

Dr. Katie Wadland, PT, DPT, GCS's entrepreneurial journey is a testament to adaptability and patient-centered care. What began as a pandemic-era pivot while homeschooling her children transformed into Healthy Aging Physical Therapy, a robust 20-person mobile practice specializing in geriatric and neurological rehabilitation. Her practice emerged from a critical healthcare need, offering innovative at-home therapy services that prioritize patient accessibility. Unlike traditional clinical models, Wadland created a flexible business approach that allows therapists to manage their own schedules while maintaining high-quality care standards. Financial sustainability came through a strategic blend of insurance-based and wellness services, with approximately 70% of revenue from Medicare and 30% from wellness programs. By maintaining transparent financial practices and implementing a profit-sharing model, Wadland cultivated a collaborative team culture that values both professional growth and work-life balance. A key differentiator in her practice is the emphasis on continuous learning and interdisciplinary collaboration. Therapists are encouraged to co-treat, leveraging individual specialties to provide comprehensive patient care. This approach not only enhances clinical outcomes but also creates a supportive professional environment. Wadland's success underscores an important healthcare entrepreneurship principle: innovative practices can thrive by remaining patient-focused, adaptable, and committed to both clinical excellence and team development. Her model offers a compelling blueprint for healthcare professionals seeking to reimagine traditional service delivery. FB: @HealthyAging PT  IG: @HealthyAgingPT  Web: www.HealthyAgingPT.com

If you're ready to challenge the norms and create a more inclusive world—this episode is your invitation.Learn more about our guest at:

Welcome back! In this episode, we're diving deep into something we all think we know, the Glasgow Coma Scale. The GCS has been a fundamental part of assessing patients with altered consciousness for over 50 years. You'll find it in trauma scores, neurology exams and practically every prehospital and ED handover. But here's the thing, is it as reliable and useful as we think? In this episode, we'll explore the origins of the scale, what it was designed for and how it's been used (and maybe misused...) since. We take a look at how reproducible it really is, particularly when different clinicians score the same patient. Spoiler alert: it's not always as consistent as you might hope! We'll also unpack the individual components; eyes, voice, motor and ask if they all carry equal weight, or are some more prognostically useful than others? Because a GCS of 4 isn't always the same GCS of 4, depending on how you get there… We'll be looking at real-world implications, how we make decisions around airway management, imaging, and referral, all based on that one number. So whether you're in prehospital care, the ED, or intensive care - stick with us as we try to answer the question: is the GCS still doing what we need it to, or is it time to move on? Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon, Rob & James
