Podcasts about GM

Step into Episode 201 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Riley, Director of Pickleball, and Casey, General Manager of Dink & Dine — a brand-new pickleball-anchored eatertainment facility that's rewriting what a night out looks like in the Valley. Four months in and sitting at a 4.9-star rating with over 110 fully organic reviews, this isn't a pickleball gym with a menu tacked on — it's something entirely different.Casey and Riley bring serious depth to this conversation. Casey went from cutting his teeth in Old Town Scottsdale's nightlife prime and graduating Scottsdale Culinary to spending 12 years growing through every level of Main Event — all the way to GM for all three Arizona locations and Regional Director covering Phoenix, Albuquerque, Denver, and Baton Rouge — before landing the opportunity to build something from the ground up with a team of hospitality consultants who asked, "Why don't we just start our own thing?" Riley's road ran through a painful divorce, a transformational pickleball flow state, a coaching company she built from scratch, overseas pickleball yacht trips, the PPA and App Tour, and even designing the world's first floating pickleball court in Croatia — before LinkedIn brought her to a facility she calls the nicest she's ever walked into. Together, they unpack four core values, the kitchen philosophy of Chef Kelly Milani, and why doing both pickleball and food at a truly high level is harder than anyone realizes — and exactly what makes Dink & Dine worth the visit.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:38) Intro: Episode 201, Delo's 52nd Birthday & Welcome to Casey and Smiley Riley(2:39 - 6:14) Casey's Origin: New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina, Scottsdale Culinary & Old Town Nightlife(6:15 - 8:10) Main Event to Dink & Dine: 12 Years, Regional Director & The Founding Team(8:11 - 12:33) 4.9 Stars, Organic Reviews, Hospitality Philosophy & Four Core Values(12:34 - 15:23) Riley's Story: From Divorce Court to the Pickleball Court & Finding Flow State(15:24 - 19:15) PPA Tour, Floating Court in Croatia & What It Means to Be Director of Pickleball(19:16 - 20:30) Bridging the Gap: High-Level Pickleball AND High-Level Food — Neither an Afterthought(20:31 - 37:00) Chef Kelly Milani, Kitchen Philosophy, Menu Highlights, Programming & Corporate Events(37:01 - 45:47) Rapid Fire Questions, Best Menu Items & How to Connect with Dink & Dine

My voice might be a little raspy… but I'm fired up.In this episode of The Loveall Sales Podcast, I break down why sales is the greatest industry in the world — and why most people never come close to reaching their full potential in it.Sales built me.I was an introvert. I didn't even want to talk to people.A mentor believed in me before I believed in myself — and that belief changed my life.But here's the truth:With great ability comes great responsibility.Talent without character is dangerous.Ability without discipline is wasted.And freedom without accountability destroys careers.In this episode, I cover:Why most salespeople have “one year of experience” repeated for a decadeWhy mastering every prospecting channel (showroom, internet, service drive, Facebook Marketplace, and especially the PHONE) is non-negotiableHow I closed 70–81% of showroom traffic and why the national averages are unacceptableThe lost art of the phone — and why it separates elite performers from average onesWhy self-worth limits incomeWhy mentorship compresses decades into yearsWhy dealerships are leaking millions by refusing to invest in trainingThe real reason 42% of automotive salespeople quit within 90 daysThis isn't motivational fluff.This is about skill set.Mindset.Habits.Discipline.Preparation.Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance.Sales will give you everything you want — but only if you're willing to become the person capable of earning it.If you're content being average, this episode isn't for you.If you want to dominate your market, master the phone, grow your income, and build a life you're proud of — this is for you.I am on a mission to elevate this industry.If you're a salesperson, manager, GM, or dealer principal and you're serious about growth — reach out.

The leaked NFLPA player report cards kick off the show, and the New York teams land on opposite ends of the spectrum. Giants players hammer the organization, handing Joe Schoen the worst GM grade in the entire league while facility issues and roster frustration take center stage. Meanwhile, the Jets receive strong marks across the board, including major praise for Aaron Glenn from players. The one thing both teams agree on? MetLife Stadium's playing surface is a disaster, earning an F-minus and reigniting concerns about injuries, turf stigma, and the upcoming World Cup grass overhaul. Does any of this actually matter, or is it just offseason noise? The guys break down what's real, what's changing, and what fans should actually care about.

The leaked NFLPA report cards spark a New York football reckoning. The Giants get crushed, including Joe Schoen landing the lowest GM grade in the league, while the Jets somehow come out glowing and Aaron Glenn grades out as one of the best-liked head coaches. And of course, MetLife's field gets dragged again, with World Cup grass plans creating even more questions. Then it's Cinco De Luncho time: in honor of the Giancarlo Stanton “can't open a bag of chips” saga, we draft the Top 5 hardest things to open. Plus, Mets fans argue Opening Day pitching drama, Jets fans debate drafting offense vs. defense, and the show detonates into Rangers chaos as Adam Fox's reaction fuels a full-blown Chris Drury and Mike Sullivan freakout.

Gary Parrish joins the show in-studio for the first hour and they'll open the show talking about the Grizzlies buying out Kyle Anderson, then signing Taj Gibson, why they need a vet like Taj Gibson, and why he helps the team off the court (5:17). Penny's Tigers lost again last night...this time to Wichita. Chris says, from what he's hearing, Penny is going to have a GM next year to fix the roster. Gary Parrish talks about why most schools need a GM at this point and they relate it to their own careers. Next, they'll talk about a player nobody is talking about who could go higher in the NBA Draft than where mock drafts have him...then Gary tells stories about his musician buddy Jason D. Williams (15:18). In the last segment, we'll touch on the NFL Draft Combine and how Ohio State LB Sonny Styles and S Caleb Downs have impressed teams the most (1:23:54). We also have Grizz/Mavs and Thunder/Nuggets tonight (1:31:44)Host: Chris VernonContributors: Jon Roser, Devin WalkerGuest: Gary ParrishTechnical Director: Jaylon WallaceAssociate Producer: Jena Broyles

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley kick off today’s show chatting about fashion before Stoke tells us about his plans for the Memorial this year. They scout for the Broncos a bit before they recap the Avs’ missed opportunity for a 4-point swing against the Wild last night. Former Nuggets GM Calvin Booth went on a podcast recently to explain his misunderstood genius in his time as the Nuggets’ GM... Mike and Stoke thoroughly debunk those claims. The guys wrap up the first hour talking about the unorthodox offseason that Sean Payton has planned for the Broncos and why Stoke doesn’t agree with the plan.  

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley without Mark Schlereth kick off the third hour getting into some new music and chopping it up about weekend plans. They discuss the implications of the Avs letting a 4-point game go to the Wild. The guys hear more from Calvin Booth’s podcast appearance where the Nuggets’ former GM takes veiled shots at Michael Malone. Mike and Stoke are joined by our NFL Insider, James Palmer, to get expert insight into Combine culture before getting his take on Sean Payton giving up play calling to Davis Webb. The guys unpack their interview with James Palmer to close out the third hour.  

Lai-Ling Su: The Explicit and Implicit Layers of Unclear Decision Rights Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. The Great Product Owner: Building Impactful Relationships That Get Things Done "What made her great was the fact that she focused not just on her technical prowess, but on the people, politics, and the performance side of product. And she used that to turn ambition into reality, and she used that to move strategy to execution." - Lai-Ling Su   Lai-Ling describes a phenomenal product owner she worked with about 12 months ago. This woman wasn't just technically strong—she was a leader whose team of 10 loved her because she mentored them to be as strong or stronger than herself.  The business loved her because she was exceptionally commercial, thinking about customer value, revenues, expenses, profit models, and marketing long before anything was built. She held everyone true to doing the right thing even when pressure mounted. The executive team loved her because her greatest strength was building solid, impactful relationships that transcended boundaries.  She removed the us-versus-them mentality, broke down departmental silos, handled politically charged scenarios, negotiated with difficult personalities across technology, legal, compliance, sales, and operations. She removed impediments responsively and got stuff done when others couldn't. Her secret was focusing on people, politics, and performance—not just technical prowess.   In this episode, we refer to Esco Kilpi's work on interactive value creation, which describes how value in knowledge organizations is created through ongoing conversations—not just meetings, but emails, wiki pages, and corridor conversations that steward decisions over time.   Self-reflection Question: How deliberately are you investing in building relationships that transcend your immediate team and department? The Bad Product Owner: Unclear Decision Rights "Does your head of product know that he has the rights and the authority to make the types of decisions that you want him to?" - Lai-Ling Su   The anti-pattern Lai-Ling encounters most persistently is unclear decision rights. She illustrates this with a story about a GM in a multinational who effectively worked as a chief product officer. His biggest complaint was that his head of product kept coming to him for decisions that should have been made independently—even though he'd been given $10 million a year to run his teams.  When Lai-Ling asked one simple question—"Does your head of product know he has the authority to make these decisions?"—the GM sat in shocked silence for a full minute. But the pattern runs deeper: there's the assumption that people know their decision rights, there's knowing your rights but not knowing how to make those decisions, and there's knowing your rights but getting trumped every time you try, leading to learned helplessness.  Some product owners have never learned to make decisions because they always defer to someone who seems better at it. There are both explicit and implicit unclear decision rights—you might tell someone they have authority while implicitly sabotaging their decisions.   Self-reflection Question: Have you explicitly confirmed with your stakeholders what decisions you have the authority to make—and are those decisions being respected in practice?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Hour 4 kicks off with Joe sharing his tips for having fun at work while avoiding HR, then pivots to the Miami Dolphins, who once again top the NFL's offseason report cards. Joe reminds listeners that while off-field grades are nice, what really matters is production on the field, citing the New England Patriots as a team that won big last year despite mediocre grades. The conversation naturally turns to Tua Tagovailoa, exploring whether he could serve as a backup in Miami or find a role elsewhere in the league. Mike Florio joins fresh from the NFL Combine, offering insights on the QB market, praising Miami's new head coach and GM for continuity, and breaking down prospects like Malik Willis, Ty Simpson, and Fernando Mendoza, while predicting that veteran Kirk Cousins will land with a new team after his release from the Atlanta Falcons.

Mike Florio joins the show fresh off interviews at the NFL Combine, sharing insights from players and executives around the league. He praises the Miami Dolphins's new head coach and GM for providing strong continuity, while weighing in on the Tua Tagovailoa situation, saying it doesn't make sense for Miami to cut him. Florio breaks down the quarterback market, highlighting Malik Willis and noting that the Green Bay Packers and Arizona Cardinals have the best intel on him. He also evaluates draft QBs, suggesting Ty Simpson could close the gap on Fernando Mendoza, and predicts veteran Kirk Cousins will land with a new team after his release from Atlanta Falcons.

The quarterback market is getting desperate, offensive tackle stock is crumbling, and the Combine is about to shake up the entire 2026 draft board. Ryan dives deep into the chaos unfolding across the NFL as teams scramble for answers heading into draft season. Key Discussion Points: The Vikings are "exploring all quarterback options" while JJ McCarthy sits on the roster — what that really signals and why drafting a QB before hiring a GM would be organizational malpractice Multiple teams including the Browns, Dolphins, and Jets are hunting for quarterback solutions, with Malik Willis hysteria reaching a fever pitch and teams calling Carolina about Andy Dalton Some NFL teams believe no offensive tackle in this class deserves a top 10 pick, a stunning departure from consensus rankings on Mauigoa and Fano Combine spotlight prospects who need to prove themselves: Ty Simpson, Garrett Nussmeier, Akeem Mesidor, Aiden Fisher, and Emmanuel McNeil-Warren each face make-or-break moments A passionate case for why the "mediocre draft class" narrative is lazy and why fans should invest in knowing prospects beyond the first round Don't just follow the first round — dig into the full draft with us and subscribe for year-round coverage! #NFLDraft #NFLCombine #DraftRoom #NFLDraft2026 #PackernetPodcast This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

The Packers are heading into the offseason with the worst offensive line of the PFF era, and Ryan isn't buying what Brian Gutekunst is selling. Today's episode dives deep into the numbers behind Aaron Banks' career — and the data tells a very different story than the GM's glowing endorsement at the combine. A full PFF breakdown of Aaron Banks' career grades reveals a player who has never cracked the top 20 at his position, despite his massive contract and $9.5 million roster bonus looming on day three of the league year Ryan challenges the Packers' philosophical shift toward bigger, stronger offensive linemen, arguing the team has historically dominated with smaller, athletic technicians — and the power approach has produced nothing but failure Combine day one highlights including Florida kicker Trey Smack drilling a 60-yarder after getting iced, plus quick hits on Aaron Rodgers' timeline, Tyler Linderbaum's market-setting deal, and the Brian Thomas trade rumors Early clues on Jeff Gannon's defensive scheme suggest a 3-4 base with nickel principles — and why that's actually exciting news for Micah Parsons and Rashan Gary Is the front office in denial, or do they see something the stats don't?

Inside a Quiet Combine Day for the Lions Jeff Risdon checked in live from Indianapolis on the Detroit Lions Podcast. Thursday at the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine brings the first on-field work across the street. Wednesday was lighter. For the Detroit Lions, it was mostly defensive podium sessions. Useful, but limited. You learn how prospects communicate. You hear how they talk football. You watch poise and clarity. You do not get many hard answers. What Detroit Looks For in Combine Meetings The NFL churns on the question, did you meet with the Lions? It is a weak tell. Teams meet for different reasons. The Detroit Lions use those rooms to learn the person. Competitiveness. Ability to be coached. How a player meshes with coaches. The whiteboard matters, but less than with some clubs that grill pure X's and O's. Others will demand a defensive tackle recite gap fits from a specific snap. Detroit more often probes mindset and fit. Do not overread formal versus informal. Kirby Joseph had only an informal visit at the Combine and left thinking the Lions were not all that interested. He became a Detroit Lion anyway. There is also a player from this regime who was drafted with no Combine meeting at all. On the flip side, a prospect two drafts ago helped himself with a strong interview. The door swings both ways. Timing matters too. Podium appearances happen before many meetings. Prospects stay in town through workouts. A player who says he has not met Detroit yet on Wednesday might sit down with them Thursday night. Keep that context in mind when the meeting lists hit social media. Kelvin Shepherd's HC Interview Was Real One media session cut through the noise. The Dolphins GM discussed their head coach search after moving on from Mike McDaniel. Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Kelvin Shepherd interviewed for that job. Some dismissed it as a box-check. The GM made it clear Shepherd was a serious candidate. That resonates in Indianapolis. It reflects how league decision-makers view Detroit's staff after back-to-back ascents. It also underscores why interviews at this NFL event are about people as much as plays. There is broader chatter. Miami's situation drew side-eye. Questions linger about Tua. There was even speculation about who will play quarterback for the New York Jets. Kyler Murray's name came up. It is not a great year to need a quarterback. None of that changes Detroit's plan this week. Watch. Learn. Separate signal from noise. The Combine is about stacking small edges. The Lions are sticking to it. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #nflscoutingcombine #indianapolis #podiuminterviews #formalmeeting #informalvisit #whiteboardx'sando's #defensivetackle #abilitytobecoached #kirbyjoseph #dolphinsgm #mikemcdaniel #tua #kylermurray #newyorkjetsquarterback #kelvinshepherdheadcoachinterview Learn more about your ad choices.

Walker and Peake discuss Popes interesting comments about a GM... again. Corey Price comes in for Trivia Thursday!

The crew breaks down the fallout from the Dolphins overpaying Tua Tagovailoa, noting how his performance dipped after securing a big contract and how finding a trade partner for him seems unlikely. Joe, Bo, and Hollywood debate the possibility of Miami giving Malik Willis a $30 million deal, with Joe and Bo skeptical about the price while Hollywood argues that if the front office believes Willis is the future, they should do whatever it takes to land him. The conversation also emphasizes the importance of building through the draft, echoing the new GM's vision for the team.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1279: Today we break down CarEdge's new Dealer Transparency Index shaking up pricing accountability, GM's MobileService+ reboot with lower-cost gas crossovers, and a fresh bump in consumer confidence that could signal steadier showroom traffic ahead.CarEdge just launched a new public report card for dealers—and it's aiming straight at pricing transparency. The AI-powered platform unveiled its Dealer Transparency Index, grading over 4,600 U.S. dealerships on how “real and honest” their pricing practices actually are.The Dealer Transparency Index (DTI) scores dealers on a 100-point scale, translating into A–F grades based on real out-the-door quotes.Scores are built from 40,000+ verified OTD quotes using CarEdge's AI negotiation platform. Dealers can't pay to improve their grade.The formula weighs doc fees (30%), add-ons (30%), dealer markups (30%), and quote data quality (10%).CarEdge lists 4,957 dealers in their search. 2,403 are graded A, 306 are graded F.CEO Zach Shefska clarified the mission: “We're not anti-dealer. We're anti-deception…"GM is retooling its MobileService+ strategy after dealers pushed back on the original $150,000 BrightDrop EV vans. Now, gas-powered crossovers are stepping in to power the next phase of at-home service—and dealers say this version actually pencils.Starting Q2, GM will offer upfitted 2026 Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain and Cadillac XT5 models for mobile service.The move follows the cancellation of BrightDrop 600 production and dealer concerns over cost, size and battery range.Upfront costs are expected to be cut by at least half compared to the $150,000 EV van. Dealers can even self-install the service kit in 6–8 hours.The setup allows stores to remove the equipment and resell the vehicle later—far more flexible than the “one-and-done” BrightDrop approach.MobileService+ Director Chris Hornberger said the new models hit the mark: “This, we feel, is the sweet spot, exactly what the dealers are looking for.”Consumer confidence edged higher in February, snapping a January slide as Americans felt slightly better about jobs and the labor market. While optimism is still well below last year's peak, expectations for the months ahead are starting to firm up.The Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index rose 2.2 points to 91.2, beating economist expectations of 87.The labor market differential improved, with more consumers saying jobs are “plentiful” versus “hard to get.”Today's show is brought to you by ESi-Q.

Great ideas don't fail in dealerships because they're bad. They fail because no one installs the behavior fast enough. In this episode of Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki, Jen breaks down a simple, high-energy methodology to help leaders stop "motivating" and start installing execution inside their stores. Most dealerships don't have a training problem — they have an execution problem. Processes get rolled out. Energy fades. Thirty days later, nothing sticks. Jen shares her proven meeting framework — used at NADA Academy and in high-performing stores — to compress action, build accountability, and make learning fun and sustainable. You'll learn how to: • Pick one behavior and install it fast • Teach a technique in under 20 seconds • Use real examples to drive discussion • Create immediate execution through activity • Run contests that build visibility and accountability • Shortlist, vote, and let the team own the win This is about turning meetings into movement. Not speeches. Not theater. Behavior change. If you're a GM, GSM, Fixed Ops Director, Sales Manager, or Service Manager who's tired of initiatives fading out — this episode gives you a repeatable structure to make things stick. Momentum doesn't come from motivation. It comes from movement. Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki Podcast |

Hosted by Tyler Bloom of Bloom Golf Partners, this conversation dives deep into the critical relationships that make or break a club's success: GM-superintendent dynamics, greens committee communication, member expectations, and the hiring practices shaping the next generation of golf course leaders. Whether you're a superintendent, club manager, Greens Chair, or aspiring industry professional, this episode is packed with hard-won wisdom you won't find in a textbook. What You'll Learn: The GM-Superintendent Relationship: Why mutual respect and open communication are the foundation of any successful club — and how to build that relationship even when leadership isn't proactive about it. The Role of the Head Golf Professional: How the golf pro acts as the "bank teller" of the club — hearing member feedback first — and why looping them into agronomic decisions is a game-changer. Greens Committee Best Practices: What makes a greens committee effective, how to involve diverse member voices (high and low handicappers, male and female), and why a mission statement can serve as your anchor when things get turbulent. Setting Realistic Member Expectations: How to communicate challenges outside the superintendent's control — like weather — and why having a communication infrastructure in place makes those tough conversations easier. Budgeting & Capital Projects: How GMs and Greens Chairs evaluate capital improvement requests, why a well-built business case matters, and how to frame a conversation around ROI rather than just agronomic necessity. Hiring for Cultural Fit: What hiring committees are really looking for beyond technical skills — leadership, emotional intelligence, attention to detail, and workplace culture. The Power of a Portfolio: Why a well-crafted interview portfolio can differentiate you from a sea of similar resumes, what to include (before/after photos, behavioral reports, SOP examples), and how to strategically deploy it throughout the process. Title Inflation in the Industry: A candid conversation about the rise of "Director of Agronomy" titles and what committees actually look for beyond the label. Book Recommendations: Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara and Sea Stories by Admiral William McRaven — two reads that connect service, leadership, and attention to detail in ways that translate directly to club management.

NFC North Roundtable: Combine Talk, Draft Priorities, QB Questions, and a Mental Health Message — Hosts from Bears, Lions, and Vikings coverage preview the NFL Combine and discuss team priorities and prospects. Detroit's Brad Holmes emphasizes versatile offensive linemen, defensive line, secondary (especially safety), and athletic linebackers, with coaches aiming to reduce explosive plays, stay versatile on offense, and potentially retain David Montgomery. Minnesota's Kevin O'Connell and Rob Brzezinski limit media access and speak generally about “casting a wide net” at quarterback for 2026 while reiterating belief in J.J. McCarthy despite a changed timeline; they also plan a GM search after the draft and debate potential veteran or backup QB options while criticizing Kyler Murray's recent stats. Chicago's Ryan Poles and Ben Johnson avoid stadium talk, address left tackle needs, and note tough roster decisions amid trade rumors involving Tremaine Edmunds and D.J. Moore. The panel highlights combine prospects at WR, center, safety, edge, and OL, then closes with a suicide prevention message and the 988 Lifeline. 00:00 NFC North Roundtable Intro 02:01 Combine Boots on Ground 02:52 Lions Draft Priorities 04:19 Lions Scheme and Defense Fixes 06:46 Lions Draft Class Talk 09:22 Vikings Media Strategy 11:11 JJ McCarthy Timeline 15:07 Vikings QB Shopping List 20:26 Packers Shade and Rivalry 20:45 Bears Combine Takeaways 21:47 Bears Left Tackle Need 23:30 Bears Cap Moves Rumors 24:36 Cap Space Reality Check 24:50 Bears Trade Rumors 25:29 Combine Prospects Vikings 28:18 Vikings Defense Targets 30:07 Lions Draft Wish List 34:43 Bears Combine Watchlist 38:17 Packers Needs and Sleepers 40:18 Network Shows and Coverage 42:04 988 Suicide Prevention Message FAN WITH US!!!  Follow us on Twitter ✖️ for more updates… Pay @TheRealPayday, host of Frustrated Chicago Sports Fan Channel, June @asgjune & M Foster @Mbrfosterchild, hosts of the Bleachers To Speakers [Lions] podcast, and Dave Stefano @Luft_Krigare, from @Vikings1stSKOL.

NY Giants Combine week is already giving us the clearest clues of the offseason: Harbaugh's “no silos” vision, Schoen's “I'm still the GM” response, and what it means for the draft, the run defense, and key rehabs.Follow on Spotify. If you listen on Apple Podcasts, a quick 5-star rating helps a ton.We break down why the Giants are restructuring football operations around integration (including where analytics/video fit), and why “stop the run” is being framed as a non-negotiable identity point. We also hit the Dexter Lawrence comments, what Schoen said about draft trade-back flexibility at pick 5, and why “explosiveness” is still an offensive priority even with positive updates on Malik Nabors and Cam Skattebo. Then we run through Combine intel: UFA priorities (Jermaine Eluemunor, Wan'Dale Robinson, Cor'Dale Flott), reported prospect interest (Arvell Reese, Caleb Downs, Jeremiyah Love), and confirmed meetings with Sonny Styles, Anthony Hill Jr., and Peter Woods.Listener Q&A: Trade down from pick 5 (A) or stay and take the best player (B)?Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us a text: what's your biggest Giants Combine takeaway so far?Send a textSupport the show

What does autonomous IT really look like when you move beyond the slideware and start wiring systems together in the real world? At Dynatrace Perform in Las Vegas, I sat down with Pablo Stern, EVP and GM of Technology Workflow Products at ServiceNow, to unpack exactly that. Pablo leads the teams focused on CIOs and CISOs, building the workflows and security products that sit at the heart of modern IT organizations. From service desks and command centers to risk and asset management, his remit is clear: enable AI to work for people, not the other way around. We began with ServiceNow's deepening multi-year partnership with Dynatrace. While the announcement made headlines, Pablo was quick to point out that the real story starts with customers. This collaboration is rooted in a shared goal of helping joint customers reduce outages, improve SLA adherence, and shrink mean time to resolution. The vision of autonomous IT operations is not about hype. It is about connecting observability data with deterministic workflows so that insight can evolve into coordinated, system-level action. Pablo walked me through the maturity curve he sees emerging. First came AI-powered insight, summarizing data and surfacing signals from noise. Then came task automation, drafting knowledge articles, paging teams, triggering predefined playbooks. The next step, and the one that excites him most, is orchestrated autonomy. That means stitching together skills, agents, and workflows into systems that can drive end-to-end outcomes. It is a journey measured in years, not months, and it depends as much on digitizing process and building trust as it does on technology. We also explored root cause analysis, still one of the biggest time drains in IT. By combining Dynatrace's AI-driven observability with ServiceNow's workflow engine, enterprises can automate forensic steps, correlate events faster, and shorten the time spent on major incident bridges where teams debate ownership. Even incremental improvements in accuracy can save hours when incidents strike. Trust, of course, remains central. Pablo was candid that full self-healing systems are still some distance away. What we will see first is relief automation, controlled failovers, scripted actions suggested by machines but approved by humans. Over time, as confidence grows and processes become fully digitized, the balance will shift. Beyond the technology, a consistent theme ran through our conversation. Outcomes have not changed. Enterprises still want higher availability, faster resolution, better employee experiences. What is changing is the how. ServiceNow is reimagining its platform to deliver those outcomes at a much higher standard, not through incremental tweaks, but through rethinking workflows for an AI-first world. From design partnerships with banks building pre-flight change checks, to internal teams acting as the toughest customers, this was a grounded, practical conversation about where autonomous operations are headed and what it will take to get there. If you are a CIO, CISO, or IT leader wondering how to move from theory to execution, this episode offers a clear-eyed look behind the curtain.

The Pacers drop their fourth straight since the All-Star break, falling at home to the 76ers and surrendering 130+ points for the third time in that span. Earlier in the day, Rick Carlisle addressed the league's recent sanctions and the injury investigation surrounding Aaron Nesmith, offering insight into how the organization is navigating both scrutiny and a mounting injury list. With Pascal Siakam sidelined due to a wrist injury and Johnny Furphy undergoing ACL surgery, the roster continues to thin while the losses pile up. Off the court, SVP of Player Personnel Ryan Carr departs for a GM role at Indiana University, adding another layer to a turbulent stretch. The lone bright spot on the night was a career performance from Micah Potter, but the bigger picture remains clear: the tank rolls on. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this segment, we dive deep into the evolving—and potentially murky—leadership structure of the New York Giants following Joe Schoen's defensive media session in Indianapolis. As Dawn Aponte steps into a senior role and John Harbaugh's influence looms large, questions are surfacing about whether the GM has been "marginalized" or if this is truly the collaborative dream team the organization claims it to be. We break down the tension surrounding Schoen's contract status, the looming "conundrum" of re-signing slot receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, and why a lack of a third-round pick makes the Giants "open for business" at the number five spot. Plus, we pivot to a heated debate on whether an Olympic Gold Medal carries a "Mickey Mouse" asterisk and why rooting for rival stars in the red, white, and blue feels so complicated for die-hard fans.
