Transition Engineering with Susan Krumdieck and Josh Susan Krumdieck (PhD, mechanical engineering) is a Professor at Heriot-Watt University in Scotland and is the foremost global proponent of the emergent discipline of Transition Engineering. Susan figured out “Doomer Optimism” before it was a thing and asked herself, “What can I do as an engineer?” The answer was to elaborate a novel approach to tackling wicked challenges, dismantling the unsustainable systems that modernity depends on, and replacing them with systems that can serve people and ecosystems for the long term. She formed the Global Association for Transition Engineering to work at the grassroots and with academics, businesses, municipalities, and regional governments to advance Transition Engineering projects. Her seminal textbook on Transition Engineering can be downloaded for free from the publisher.

Hear from Moody's Analytics' Cris deRitis about geopolitical risk, cybersecurity, political unease, supply-chain threats, and other key issues that will impact risk managers this year. 2023 was a hectic and extremely challenging year for risk managers. The U.S. regional banking crisis grabbed headlines, with failures being blamed on everything from poor risk culture and ineffective risk modeling to interest-rate volatility – and even to the speed at which news travels in the social media era. Geopolitical risk and supply-chain risk also contributed to an environment of volatility and uncertainty, fueled by the start of a violent conflict between Israel and Hamas, the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, and attacks on commercial shipping vessels in the Red Sea. Technology, moreover, has evolved, with cyberattacks becoming more sophisticated and more prevalent, and with new innovations – like generative AI – bringing both risks and opportunities. That leads us to today's topic: namely, how will the remainder of 2024 shake out? What changes may be on the horizon, and which trends will have the greatest impact on the financial risk management landscape? Cris deRitis, the deputy chief economist at Moody's Analytics, sheds some light on what lies ahead for risk managers.

Tailoring your message to the audience and framing it in a relatable way can make you a more thoughtful communicator.Cybersecurity awareness and controls are crucial for preventing breaches, but the way you "sell" the experience matters. By making engagement positive and impactful, you can increase social capital and encourage people to follow the rules.Change can be overwhelming, especially when we're already dealing with a lot of decisions and cognitive load. To make change easier, it's important to focus on what matters in the moment and avoid overwhelming people with too many changes at once.By understanding how our brains work and tailoring our communication and change management strategies accordingly, we can make a positive impact on our organizations and help drive progress.If you're interested in understanding the behavioural science behind cybersecurity and how we can communicate more effectively, then you're in the right place.

Welcome to Compromising Positions! The tech podcast that asks non-cybersecurity professionals what we in the industry can do to make their lives easier and help make our organisations more prepared to face ever-changing human-centric cyber threats! Join your hosts, Lianne Potter, Cyber Anthropologist and Head of Security Operations for a major retailer, and Jeff Watkins, Cybersecurity enthusiast and CTO for a software consultancy as they interview this week's guest!This week our guest is Melina Palmer, a renowned keynote speaker in behavioural economics and the CEO of The Brainy Business, as well as hosting one of the best podcasts on the subject of the practical application of behavioural economics.In this episode, we discuss how silos and tribal mentalities occur in the workplace due to confirmation bias and how we can expand the circle of empathy to create a more cohesive team.We'll also delve into the issue of time discounting, availability bias and optimism bias to understand why people are drawn to the easy option in the moment.We shall explore how the cybersecurity team's curse of knowledge can be a barrier to effective communication, and the need to create easier-to-digest content that enables 'buy-in.' Key takeaways for this episode are:Understanding the behaviour that leads to insecure cybersecurity behaviour is crucial in developing effective cybersecurity strategies. Silos and tribal mentalities in the workplace can be detrimental to team dynamics and productivity. Leaders should work towards creating a 'team company' culture.

In an exclusive interview, we had the opportunity to talk with UFI President Michael Duck, who serves as executive vice president, commercial development of Informa Markets, and UFI CEO Kai Hattendorf, to get the inside scoop on the breaking news that UFI kicked off its first Global Congress in U.S. with the launch of a North America Regional Chapter. We talked about: Why the regional chapter was formed in North America and why now What UFI regional chapters do and how they support members Who will lead the North America Chapter (volunteer and staffing) What benefits members will receive from the chapter Why is UFI different from the U.S. based associations When and where the chapter will meet next On Nov. 1, UFI, The Global Association of the Exhibition Industry, kicked off its 90th UFI Global Congress in Las Vegas — the first time for the global gathering to meet in the U.S. — with a member vote during its annual General Assembly to approve the launch of a North America chapter. Exhibition Place Toronto General Manager Laura Purdy will chair the new chapter together with vice chairs Kim Carcone, executive vice president, global market events for the Toy Association, and Pepe Navarro, director general for Tarsus/Informa. UFI will work with MAD Event Management, a trade show management company led by President Martha Donato and CEO Marty Glynn, to manage the activities for the new North America chapter. Back story As an integrated part of the industry association ecosystem, UFI has long been active across North America. More than 65 national and international exhibition end events industry associations — including the Society of Independent Show Organizers and the Exhibition Services and Contractors Association in the U.S., AMPROFEC and AMEREF in Mexico and Canadian Association of Exposition Management in Canada — are UFI members. “UFI is a trailblazer for collaboration among industry associations – and has been for more than 20 years, with great success around the world,” Hattendorf said. “Having seen multi-year stable growth in membership from across North America, UFI opens a North America chapter to ensure these members are well represented in the organization,” said Duck, who helped UFI open its first regional chapter more than 20 years ago. At the time, that regional chapter covered Asia/Pacific, Middle East and Africa. As of today, UFI will have five regional chapters, including North America, Europe, Asia/Pacific, Middle East and Latin America. At least 5% of its global membership is based in each of these regions, Hattendorf said. “We have seen our membership numbers rise constantly across North America,” Duck said. “North America represents a vital and growing share of UFI membership, with 7% of UFI's 830 member companies based in the region and more than 25% of UFI members with active business in the region.” Major trade show companies, like Informa, RX and Clarion, are part of the European chapter, as their headquarters are located in Europe. “Through the chapter, we make sure that the voices and needs of UFI members from Canada, U.S. and Mexico are well represented in UFI's governing bodies, including the Executive Committee and the Board, as well as through the Chapter leadership,” Duck said. Hattendorf added, “We can also serve our members and the industry in the region better through the chapter structure and its corresponding regional office.” Podcast host Danica Tormohlen also shared the top five new stories from Trade Show News Network, Exhibit News Now and Corporate Event News as November begins.

He also supports the wider Informa Group divisions, with commercial activity in Asia.

Minerals critical to the energy transition The International Energy Agency's inaugural edition of the Critical Minerals Market Review offers intriguing insights into global energy markets as the world transitions from a fossil fuel-based system to renewable energy. While the transition has happened in significantly less time than it took to build a fossil fuel-based system (we're already seeing record deployment of solar panels, wind turbines, and electric vehicles), it hasn't been without challenges. The shift towards renewables and the growing demand for this technology underpin the growth in the critical minerals markets. In fact, the market size for energy transition minerals has doubled compared to 2017, making it a massive $320 billion industry. The challenges with the energy transition are largely tied to critical mineral extraction. The demand for minerals like copper, nickel, lithium, and rare earth elements like neodymium used in electric vehicles has skyrocketed. But as market demand for these minerals grows, so must the mining industry. The mining boom raises concerns about the environmental and societal impacts of expanded mining operations. The Critical Minerals Market Review highlights an interesting tension between battery production for electric vehicles and consumer preferences, alongside potential negative implications of meeting the growing demand for minerals. While progress in improving the gender balance of workers and community investment by mining companies, concerns about worker safety, emissions, water use, and waste production persist. Furthermore, equitable access to the technology developed from these minerals for resource-rich countries remains unsolved and unanswered. Climate change scenarios in financial services The University of Exeter's Institute and Faculty of Actuaries released a paper (The Emperor's New Climate Scenarios) highlighting that commonly used climate models in financial services often underestimate the risks of climate change. It's an area often overlooked in the discussions around climate change; however, financial services increasingly incorporate potential climate events into their risk assessments to improve their strategies. While it's encouraging to see a willingness to understand how climate poses a material risk to company performance, the paper warns that these models often produce “artificially benign” predictions, which could pose significant economic risks. The critical issue with these models is their failure to accurately incorporate the cost of real-world impacts of climate change. According to a survey by the Global Association of Risk Professionals, 80% of firms used climate-scenario analysis in 2022, but the models often overlooked the escalating costs of climate phenomena such as sea-level rise and crop die-off. Misinterpretation of these models is also prevalent due to financial firms' lack of climate expertise. Models built on a near-term time horizon of one to five years should not be applied to longer-term decision-making, and assumptions that we are on track to meet the Paris Agreement are inaccurate. To rectify these issues, it's recommended that models incorporate current emissions rather than assumed progress and that model creators convey what a model does and doesn't describe. Paired with a qualitative narrative, this could bridge the gap between climate and financial experts and foster a better understanding of climate implications across industries.

You have to make so many decisions every day as an educator or educational leader. It's overwhelming and enough to drive you to burnout. Add to that the change that happens seemingly every minute in the classroom or the office. We can't train on how to manage our brains around the constant disruptions and distractions. But you can change how you plan for and react to them. This week on the podcast, I'm talking with Melina Palmer, a behavioral economist who consults with businesses all over the globe. She's the author of the new book, What Your Customer Wants and Can't Tell you. We explore what your teachers (and students) need and want and why it's so hard to put that into words. We also talk about why the Golden Rule is antiquated and why we need to focus on the Platinum Rule instead. Melina is the real deal when it comes to behavioral change and there are so many takeaways from this conversation. But don't make the mistake of trying to change everything at once. Instead, tune into some micro-shifts to make long-lasting changes. About Melina Palmer: Melina Palmer is founder and CEO of The Brainy Business, which provides behavioral economics consulting to businesses of all sizes from around the world. Her podcast, The Brainy Business: Understanding the Psychology of Why People Buy, has downloads in over 160 countries and is used as a resource for teaching applied behavioral economics for many universities and businesses.

Change is hard, even when it's a change that makes our lives easier. Today, I speak with Melina Palmer, CEO of The Brainy Business, expert in behavioral economics for organizations around the world, and the author of What Your Employees Need and Can't Tell You. We give you a refresher on behavioral economics and how our human brains work - especially the conscious and unconscious parts of our brains. We discuss why change is hard, even when it's a good change, and how leaders get change massively wrong. Melina will share her framework called "It's Not About the Cookie" and how it applies to any employee initiative. She also shares her top tip for those who want to have more influence at work. Key Takeaways:Change doesn't need to be hard, you just need to understand what motivates the people you are trying to change - education alone will never be enough. Create a culture of feedback and input, solicit that feedback, then actually implement those ideas. Be transparent about your change management. The more transparent you are along the way, the more people can trust the process. "Every conversation and initiative is a change conversation or initiative - you are either in the midst of change, in the wake of change that has already happened, or building up to the next change." — Melina Palmer About Melina Palmer, CEO and author of What Your Employees Need and Can't Tell YouMelina Palmer is the founder and CEO of The Brainy Business, which provides behavioral economics consulting to businesses of all sizes from around the world.

Change is hard, even when it's a change that makes our lives easier. Today, I speak with Melina Palmer, CEO of The Brainy Business, expert in behavioral economics for organizations around the world, and the author of What Your Employees Need and Can't Tell You. We give you a refresher on behavioral economics and how our human brains work - especially the conscious and unconscious parts of our brains. We discuss why change is hard, even when it's a good change, and how leaders get change massively wrong. Melina will share her framework called "It's Not About the Cookie" and how it applies to any employee initiative. She also shares her top tip for those who want to have more influence at work. Key Takeaways:Change doesn't need to be hard, you just need to understand what motivates the people you are trying to change - education alone will never be enough. Create a culture of feedback and input, solicit that feedback, then actually implement those ideas. Be transparent about your change management. The more transparent you are along the way, the more people can trust the process. "Every conversation and initiative is a change conversation or initiative - you are either in the midst of change, in the wake of change that has already happened, or building up to the next change." — Melina Palmer About Melina Palmer, CEO and author of What Your Employees Need and Can't Tell YouMelina Palmer is the founder and CEO of The Brainy Business, which provides behavioral economics consulting to businesses of all sizes from around the world.

Futurists are people who plan for the future by looking at trends and identifying what's coming instead of only looking at the past. To explain more about this profession and the profound value it offers, today we are joined by Rebecca Ryan, a top 50 professional futurist, as well as an economist, best-selling author, and entrepreneur. She is also on the executive committee of the Global Association of Professional Futurists.

In Episode 2 of Looking Outside we're joined by the super smart behavioral economist, author, speaker and podcast host Melina Palmer, Founder & CEO of The Brainy Business. Today we're looking outside Brain Science. Together Jo and Melina discuss how better understanding the scientific workings of the human brain can unlock not just a business competitive advantage but help you better understand yourself. They explore how our human brain has a bias for predictability, for what's comfortable, of following the success path of others (herding) and the skills we should train within ourselves to push beyond the familiar or the socially predictive. We're still working the human brain out but already there is a lot we can leverage from what brain science has told us. But with 35,000 decisions made every day an essential ingredient to brain science is art and creativity (so you can throw darts where your competitors are throwing noodles). -- To look beyond the familiar, Melina recommends you speak with someone you know well, and who knows you well. Someone who can catch when you're falling into predictable patterns and can offer an alternate route. -- Melina Palmer is founder and CEO of The Brainy Business, which provides behavioral economics consulting to businesses of all sizes from around the world.

We, as humans, don't buy for the reasons we think we do, and there are ways to communicate our message so that we tap into those mental models and frameworks - not to manipulate, but to make your case in a way our brains can understand and connect with. My guest today, Melina Palmer, CEO of The Brainy Business, and author of What Your Customer Wants and Can't Tell You, will share exactly what behavioral economics is and why it matters to your success as a business, as a marketer, and as a persuasive communicator. Melina also shares why our customers can't even always tell us what they want, and we explore the concept of Behavioral Baking and how it works to better connect with customers. Key Takeaways:Look for anywhere you're communicating: “10% fat” instead of “90% fat-free” and see where you can flip it and reframe it to more appealing language and messaging (even if it is, logically, the same thing). Reframe your messages as a question to get people talking and understanding what they are looking for. Customers are distracted and are, habitually, buying 95% of the time. You need to understand which side of the habitual line you are on. "Essentially, behavioral economics is the psychology of why people buy and understanding what's really happening within the brain. It's so important for everyone in life and in business because our subconscious brains are making 99% of our decisions at any given time." — Melina Palmer About Melina Palmer:Melina Palmer is founder and CEO of The Brainy Business, which provides behavioral economics consulting to businesses of all sizes from around the world.

Veteran missionary to Guatemala, Brad Thompson challenges us to move beyond “the missionary must win the whole nation by himself” mentality, into the realm of ministry multiplication through the power of transformative teaching. We are to duplicate ourselves in those we teach because that is what Jesus did. Bro. Thompson candidly shares his frustrations and successes in the process of growing a world-class Bible School program in the nation of Guatemala, along with a series of “student-first” principles for Bible School programs. As a Regional Coordinator for the UPCI Global Missions official training arm, Global Association of Theological Studies (GATS), Bro. Thompson also describes the GATS Global Educators program. The dual-pronged program provides training resources to missionaries and also provides ample service opportunities for those considering service on the mission field. For more information about GATS, its resources, and its service opportunities visit https://www.gatsonline.org/ or email Bro. Jim Poitras / Bro. Thompson at GATS@upci.org.If you'd like to connect with Bro.
