Dass die Governance von Schlachthöfen scheitern kann, hatte ich ja bereits in Folge #290 behandelt. Ein neuer Fall in bayerischen Schlachthöfen bestätigt meine damalige Einschätzung. In diesem Podcast beschäftige ich mich daher erneut mit der Frage, wie die Governance gestärkt werden kann. Dazu analysiere ich die von der Politik vorgebrachten Argumente und vorgeschlagenen Maßnahmen, z.B. die für die Zukunft geforderten flächendeckenden Kontrollen. Komisch, dass das bisher mit den über alle Regierungsbezirke verteilten 85 bayerischen Veterinärämtern nicht der Fall sein soll. Zusätzlich lasse ich Sie an meinen Überlegungen teilhaben, wie die Internen Kontrollverfahren und die Governance für Schlachthöfe gestärkt werden könnte. Ich wünsche Ihnen viel Spaß beim Zuhören und erfolgreiche Prüfungsprozesse!

Shalini Sankarshana, MD, PlanviewIndia's banking sector is sprinting through a marathon of digital disruption—and the smartest players are using regulation not as a roadblock, but as guardrails for innovation. In this episode, Shalini Sankarshana, Managing Director at Planview®—an expert in Strategic Portfolio Management and Digital Product Development—tells Gloria Methri of IBS Intelligence why banks like Axis and SBI are racing ahead, how speed and security must go hand in hand, and why the future belongs to those who collaborate, not compete. 

The contemporary US and global Social Structure, like the formations that preceded it, shape mass opinion with words, frequently without proof of fact and increasingly it seems without sustained thinking. What happens when the word is given on a subject, a person, the meaning of an event or an era? What is a word? What is the word? What does the word of celebrity mean in fact, if anything? What does it signify? What does it say about the giver(s) and the audience(s)? What is the value and impact of mediation and Cultural Meaning-Making in today's society, when stories–narratives–penetrate more deeply into Governance formations and deliberations than ever before? And at a moment when others using other words to feed narratives that fuel anti-social, fascist and oppressive objectives are poised to fuel a potentially disastrous scenario in the United States in a little over six weeks?JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

South Africa needs a new generation of leaders - maybe a non-politician to run the country. That is the view of Professor William Gumede of the School of Governance at Wits University. “I think…that maybe we need less of the hard people…a lot of our leaders, our political leaders, many of our black political leaders particularly, these are hard individuals, ruthless individuals, self-interested individuals, people who…don't care about inciting violence and dividing the country, blaming other communities. They will walk over the bodies of black and white South Africans to be in power,” he says. In this wide-ranging interview with BizNews, Professor Gumede dissects the Trump-Ramaphosa meeting in Washington; the performance of the Government of National Unity (GNU), as well as the Democratic Alliance (DA), Patriotic Alliance (PA), and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) - and their future prospects. He also outlines the possible strategy of former President Jacob Zuma with his MKP. He delves into the Expropriation Without Compensation (EWC) controversy, and suggests alternatives to current Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) practices. Meanwhile, Professor Gumede is working from the outside to “try to get all of these opposition parties with a constitutional base…to cooperate…to sort of nudge people and politicians to begin to realign our politics to a much more reason-based, common sense-based centre”. He says the country needs “at least a bridging period, a five-year period in South Africa's history for the country to calm down, for the country to be much more pragmatic, and for us to be more inclusive and to get the populists to the sidelines, the people who think that only one colour can run the country or only one political faction and one ideology can run the country.”

John Maytham is joined by Adjunct Professor Alex van den Heever, who presently holds the Chair of Social Security Systems Administration and Management Studies at the University of the Witwatersrand, to unpack the financial implosion at Johannesburg’s City Power. With a staggering R16.3 billion negative bank balance, under-collection of revenue, and internal reports allegedly buried by Mayor Dada Morero, the city’s ability to deliver services now hangs in the balance. Van den Heever weighs in on the legal and governance implications and whether this crisis signals broader systemic failure. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather.

Episode Show Notes: May 22, 2025 Welcome to the Scuderia F1 Podcast! This week, we're strapping in for a packed grid of topics. We tackle Cadillac's "heavy" start to their F1 journey and Ferrari's relentless quest for qualifying pace, fueled by Tifosi "hopium." Then, we shift gears to F1's big commercial plays, including a surprising new alliance with Disney, before confronting the "digital daggers" of online abuse and media ethics in the sport. And, of course, with the iconic race just around the corner, we give you our essential Monaco Grand Prix Preview! Here's what we're unpacking in this episode: On-Track & Technical - The Weight of Expectation Cadillac's 2026 Charge: They've passed the crash tests, but their chassis is reportedly "well over the weight target set by engineers"! We discuss the monumental task of building a car AND a team for the new regs. Ferrari's Mid-Season Suspension Saga: Still losing "half a second per lap in qualifying"? The Tifosi are on their usual "hopium" to "despair" rollercoaster as a new rear suspension is prepped for Silverstone. Will it finally cure their Saturday struggles? Fred Vasseur admits, "When you start at P11 and P12, it's much more difficult." FIA Technical Directives: How new TDs on skid blocks and tyre cooling are stirring the pot between Red Bull and McLaren, and Andrea Stella's "good news" take on rivals "focusing on the wrong things." F1's Expanding Universe & Its Shadows Business, Governance & Growth: Media, Marketing & Mickey Mouse: The Darker Side - Online Abuse & Media Missteps: Monaco Grand Prix Preview - Your Essential Primer! The Crown Jewel: A look at the history and unique challenge of the iconic Circuit de Monaco. Track Secrets: We break down famous corners from Sainte Dévote to La Rascasse and discuss the optimal car setup (maximum downforce, soft suspension) and driver attributes (precision, concentration, confidence!) needed to win. Who Will Conquer the Principality? Our early thoughts and predictions for the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix winner. Blast from the Past: Remembering Jaguar's infamous lost $300,000 diamond at the 2004 Monaco GP! Join the conversation!

Usbekistan ist ein Land mit einer bewegten Historie: Die Stadt Samarkand war früh ein wichtiges Handelszentrum der alten Seidenstraße. Unzählige Karawanen zogen vorbei, die Kulturen kreuzten sich. Eine Tradition, die bis heute nachwirkt: Neben dem Reichtum an Rohstoffen ist Usbekistan für Europa noch immer wegen der Handelsrouten nach Asien und China spannend.Stefan Meister ist Leiter des Zentrums für Ordnung und Governance in Osteuropa, Russland und Zentralasien der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Auswärtige Politik (DGAP): Für ihn konkurrieren aktuell Kasachstan und Usbekistan um "eine Art Vorherrschaft" in der Region: Kasachstan habe seinen Öl- und Gassektor früh für westliche Investitionen geöffnet. "Usbekistan ist jetzt das zweite Land, das versucht, Kontakte Richtung Europa zu knüpfen", sagt Meister im Podcast "Wirtschaft Welt & Weit".Den Wunsch, sich enger zu vernetzen, sieht Meister auf beiden Seiten. Der russische Angriffskrieg auf die Ukraine hat ihn intensiviert: Usbekistan als postsowjetisches Land wolle sich "wegdiversifizieren vom russischen Einfluss", sagt der Experte. Das passt zum Interesse der EU und Deutschlands an alternativen Handelsrouten, die an Russland vorbei nach Asien und China führen. Und es steht genauso im Einklang mit dem europäischen Bestreben, sich bei den für die Hightech-Industrie so wichtigen seltenen Erden breiter aufzustellen: "Da gibt es einiges an Lagerstätten."Gerade erst war Samarkand Schauplatz des EU-Zentralasien-Gipfels. Die EU, Usbekistan, Kasachstan, aber auch Kirgisistan, Tadschikistan und Turkmenistan haben in der drittgrößten Stadt des Landes ihren Willen nach einer engeren Zusammenarbeit bekundet. Im Rahmen von "Global Gateway", dem europäischen Alternativprojekt zur neuen chinesischen Seidenstraße, sollen künftig Milliardensummen nach Zentralasien fließen. Wann und in welcher Form bleibt allerdings noch vage.Während die EU weiter plant, ist China schon jetzt ein großer Player in der Region. Stefan Meister sieht den Vorsprung der Volksrepublik gelassen: Der Ausbau des mittleren Handelskorridors könne von unterschiedlichen Seiten aus vorangetrieben werden, sagt er. "Letztlich geht es darum, dass man große Investitionen von verschiedenen Seiten her stemmt." Chinesische Investitionen sind für ihn "nicht per se negativ". Davon könne letztlich auch Europa profitieren.Fest steht: In Usbekistan ist Raum für deutsche Investitionen. Das Land möchte vor Ort höherwertige Arbeitsplätze schaffen. Außerdem ist es bestrebt, seine Abhängigkeiten zu China und Russland zu reduzieren. Sicher ist aber auch, dass es sich um ein autoritäres Regime handelt, welches beim Thema Rechtsstaatlichkeit Nachholbedarf hat. Das mache die Investitionsbedingungen aus deutscher Perspektive "nicht unbedingt attraktiv", konstatiert Meister. Schreiben Sie Ihre Fragen, Kritik und Anmerkungen gern an www@n-tv.de.

00;02;09;25 - 00;04;50;23 Trump's Ego and Celebrity Endorsements: Trump demands a probe into Kamala Harris's campaign for allegedly paying celebrities (e.g., Beyoncé, Bruce Springsteen, Oprah) for endorsements disguised as entertainment services. Claims this is about his ego rather than political integrity, as he's upset they opposed him. Accuses Harris of violating campaign laws but ignores similar issues in his own campaign. Trump's Tariff Policy Critique (00;24;19;26 - 00;29;39;05)Exposes economic consequences of Trump's tariffs, debunking his claim that China pays them. Highlights real-world impacts like price hikes, layoffs, and U.S. economic strain due to a weak manufacturing base. This challenges populist rhetoric and reveals policy flaws affecting everyday Americans.Infant Death After Vaccines (00;36;57;12 - 00;43;09;00)A tragic case of a six-month-old dying post-vaccination raises serious questions about routine vaccine safety and SIDS correlations. It's emotionally compelling and underscores the need for transparency in medical practices, resonating with parental concerns.Covid Vaccine Deaths Ignored (00;45;17;07 - 00;50;54;24)Reveals systemic failure in Australia's investigation of 35 same-day Covid vaccine deaths, highlighting government cover-ups and regulatory bias. The temporal correlation data is striking and fuels distrust in public health institutions.Covid Vaccines and Miscarriages (00;59;51;19 - 01;03;46;22)A near-10% increase in miscarriage rates among vaccinated pregnant women is alarming, especially with researchers downplaying it. This underscores ethical concerns about vaccine mandates for pregnant women and the manipulation of scientific narratives.Kristi Noem's Habeas Corpus Misunderstanding (01;11;24;13 - 01;15;50;20)Noem falsely claims habeas corpus grants Trump deportation powers, misunderstanding its role as a check on unlawful detention. Her error and Stephen Miller's suggestion to suspend it raise alarms about due process violations.Constitutional Concerns and Trump's Agenda (01;20;44;01 - 01;23;26;25)Suspending habeas corpus for migrants is constitutionally dubious, as the power resides with Congress, not the president. The “invasion” justification is weak, threatening civil liberties for all, including citizens critical of government policies.Stablecoin Bill and CBDC Concerns (01;40;02;12 - 01;42;23;23)The Senate's Genius Stablecoin Bill advances, raising fears of a trackable central bank digital currency (CBDC). Despite Democratic concerns over Trump's crypto ventures, the bill signals a push for government-controlled financial oversight.Moody's U.S. Credit Downgrade (01;42;51;13 - 01;44;43;24)Moody's U.S. credit downgrade triggers market reactions (falling futures, rising yields, gold up), reflecting unsustainable spending and signaling the decline of U.S. financial hegemony, a pivotal economic shift.Constitutional Crisis and Judicial Overreach (01;59;51;06 - 02;04;38;20)Trump's administration challenges judicial authority, claiming judges overstep by dictating executive actions like spending or policy. Vance argues judges lack authority over legitimate executive powers, while critics warn of a constitutional crisis and unprecedented presidential power.CIA's Role in Governance (02;25;36;10 - 02;36;37;04)Mike Johnson's anecdote about Biden's unawareness reveals CIA influence in the White House. A CIA official's claim that government prioritizes its own continuity over citizens' rights exposes a “national security” mindset treating Americans as economic tools.Stargate AI and mRNA Vaccines (02;48;56;23 - 02;57;01;06)Trump's $500B Stargate AI project with tech giants promises jobs but raises concerns about AI-driven mRNA cancer vaccines. Critics highlight genetic manipulation risks and elite control, amplified by Trump's vaccine advocacy and unproven mRNA safety.Follow the show on Kick and watch live every weekday 9:00am EST – 12:00pm EST https://kick.com/davidknightshow Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.comIf you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-david-knight-show--2653468/support.

This challenges populist rhetoric and reveals policy flaws affecting everyday Americans.Infant Death After Vaccines (00;36;57;12 - 00;43;09;00)A tragic case of a six-month-old dying post-vaccination raises serious questions about routine vaccine safety and SIDS correlations. It's emotionally compelling and underscores the need for transparency in medical practices, resonating with parental concerns.Covid Vaccine Deaths Ignored (00;45;17;07 - 00;50;54;24)Reveals systemic failure in Australia's investigation of 35 same-day Covid vaccine deaths, highlighting government cover-ups and regulatory bias. The temporal correlation data is striking and fuels distrust in public health institutions.Covid Vaccines and Miscarriages (00;59;51;19 - 01;03;46;22)A near-10% increase in miscarriage rates among vaccinated pregnant women is alarming, especially with researchers downplaying it. This underscores ethical concerns about vaccine mandates for pregnant women and the manipulation of scientific narratives.Kristi Noem's Habeas Corpus Misunderstanding (01;11;24;13 - 01;15;50;20)Noem falsely claims habeas corpus grants Trump deportation powers, misunderstanding its role as a check on unlawful detention. Her error and Stephen Miller's suggestion to suspend it raise alarms about due process violations.Constitutional Concerns and Trump's Agenda (01;20;44;01 - 01;23;26;25)Suspending habeas corpus for migrants is constitutionally dubious, as the power resides with Congress, not the president. The “invasion” justification is weak, threatening civil liberties for all, including citizens critical of government policies.Stablecoin Bill and CBDC Concerns (01;40;02;12 - 01;42;23;23)The Senate's Genius Stablecoin Bill advances, raising fears of a trackable central bank digital currency (CBDC). Despite Democratic concerns over Trump's crypto ventures, the bill signals a push for government-controlled financial oversight.Moody's U.S. Credit Downgrade (01;42;51;13 - 01;44;43;24)Moody's U.S. credit downgrade triggers market reactions (falling futures, rising yields, gold up), reflecting unsustainable spending and signaling the decline of U.S. financial hegemony, a pivotal economic shift.Constitutional Crisis and Judicial Overreach (01;59;51;06 - 02;04;38;20)Trump's administration challenges judicial authority, claiming judges overstep by dictating executive actions like spending or policy. Vance argues judges lack authority over legitimate executive powers, while critics warn of a constitutional crisis and unprecedented presidential power.CIA's Role in Governance (02;25;36;10 - 02;36;37;04)Mike Johnson's anecdote about Biden's unawareness reveals CIA influence in the White House. A CIA official's claim that government prioritizes its own continuity over citizens' rights exposes a “national security” mindset treating Americans as economic tools.Stargate AI and mRNA Vaccines (02;48;56;23 - 02;57;01;06)Trump's $500B Stargate AI project with tech giants promises jobs but raises concerns about AI-driven mRNA cancer vaccines. Critics highlight genetic manipulation risks and elite control, amplified by Trump's vaccine advocacy and unproven mRNA safety.Follow the show on Kick and watch live every weekday 9:00am EST – 12:00pm EST https://kick.com/davidknightshow Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.comIf you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-david-knight-show--5282736/support.

In this post-RSAC 2025 Brand Story, Marco Ciappelli catches up with Steve Schlarman, Senior Director of Product Management at Archer, to discuss the evolving intersection of GRC, AI, and business value. From regulatory overload to AI-enhanced policy generation, this conversation explores how meaningful innovation—grounded in real customer needs—is shaping the future of risk and compliance.Not All AI Is Created Equal: The Archer ApproachRSAC 2025 was buzzing with innovation, but for Steve Schlarman and the Archer team, it wasn't about showing off shiny new toys—it was about proving that AI, when used with purpose and context, can truly enhance the risk and compliance function.Steve, Senior Director of Product Management at Archer, breaks down how Archer Evolve and the recent integration of Compliance.ai are helping organizations address regulatory change in a more holistic, automated, and scalable way. With silos still slowing down many companies, the need for tools that actually do something is more urgent than ever.From Policy Generation to Risk NarrativesOne of the most practical applications discussed? Using AI not just to detect risk, but to help write better risk statements, control documentation, and even policy language that actually communicates clearly. Steve explains how Archer is focused on closing the loop between data and business impact—translating technical risk outputs into narratives the business can actually act on.AI with a Human TouchAs Marco notes, AI in cybersecurity has moved from hype to hesitation to strategy. Steve is candid: some customers are still on the fence. But when AI is delivered in a contextual way, backed by customer-driven innovation, it becomes a bridge—not a wedge—between people and process. The key is not AI for the sake of AI, but for solving real, grounded problems.What's Next in Risk? Better ConversationsLooking ahead, Schlarman sees a shift from “no, we can't” to “yes, and here's how.” With a better grasp on loss exposure and control costs, the business conversation is changing. AI-powered storytelling and smart interfaces might just help risk teams have their most effective conversations yet.From regulatory change to real-time translation of risk data, this is where tech meets trust.⸻Guest: Steve Schlarman, Senior Director, Product Management, Archert | https://www.linkedin.com/in/steveschlarman/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Archer: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/archerLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsac25______________________Keywords:steve schlarman, marco ciappelli, rsac2025, archer evolve, compliance.ai, regulatory change, grc, risk management, ai storytelling, cybersecurity, compliance, brand story, rsa conference, cybersecurity strategy, risk communication, ai in compliance, automation, contextual ai, integrated risk management, business risk narrative, itspmagazine______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage? Learn More

Private clubs often pride themselves on tradition—but without strong governance, even the most respected institutions can find themselves unprepared for what's ahead. In this data-driven conversation, Ed Heil talks with Joseph Abely, Executive Consultant at Club Benchmarking and lead author of the Club Benchmarking 2025 Governance Report. Rather than offering surface-level advice, Joe draws on insights from over 400 clubs to reveal what actually moves the needle: board education, succession planning, and long-term strategic thinking. The findings are clear—clubs that prioritize these elements don't just function more smoothly; they outperform their peers financially and operationally. If your board meetings are focused on operational fixes instead of future vision, this episode is your wake-up call.

As Artificial Intelligence reshapes our world, understanding the new threat landscape and how to secure AI-driven systems is more crucial than ever.

In an era where government tech projects often end in billion-dollar failures and privacy nightmares, there's a tiny Baltic nation that's quietly revolutionized what's possible. Estonia—a country of just 1.3 million people—has built what might be the world's most efficient digital government. Every public service is online. Digital signatures save 2% of GDP annually. And in a twist that should intrigue American conservatives, they've done it with smaller government, not bigger.How did a former Soviet republic become a model of lean digital governance? What's their secret for avoiding the "big-bang IT project" disasters that plague Washington? And most importantly—can America's divided political system learn anything from Estonia's success?Joining for this episode are two experts who've studied Estonia's digital miracle up close. Dr. Keegan McBride is senior policy advisor in emerging technology and geopolitics at the Tony Blair Institute. He's also a Non-Resident Senior Fellow at the Foundation for American Innovation. Joel Burke is the author of Rebooting a Nation: the Incredible Rise of Estonia, E-Government, and the Startup Revolution, and Senior Public Policy Analyst at Mozilla.

Send us a textOn today's show is Paul Dionne, chief strategy officer at Quantum Governance, L3C.  What's an L3C?  Good question: It's a low profit limited liability company and, in the case of Quantum Governance, that means it “help[s]  nonprofits, credit unions, associations and foundations realize the full potential of their missions.”The company's work with credit unions revolves around governance - especially issues involving the board and organizational leadership - and strategic planning.That's why a key focus of this discussion is a credit union board's fiduciary responsibility especially in the case of a merger.  When a merger is on the table, a board member's responsibility is to make decisions that are in the best interest of the membership, said Dionne.What's that mean?  How can a board member go off course?  In the show Dionne, who worked at Filene before joining Quantum Governance, tells the good, the bad and the ugly.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

What do chemistry, committees and cooking have in common?  They're all things which have formed part of the career of my guest on this episode. She's Sarah Ward, owner of The Cookery Lab, a unique cookery school that uses a science-led approach to teaching cooking skills. I first met Sarah when we worked together on governance at the Bank of England.  She began her carerer as a chemist, before switching — for reasons she explains on the show — to regulation.  And now she's a chef. In a fascinating discussion, I explore with Sarah how her scientific background shapes her approach to teaching cooking, emphasizing that it's not just about following recipes but about understanding the structure and science behind the food. Sarah shares how a pivotal experience teaching cooking at her son's school reignited her passion and led her to create a unique culinary space that blends chemistry and cookery. Sarah also reflects on her regulatory background, discussing the unexpected parallels between governance and gastronomy. From her time at the Bank of England to her experiences in professional kitchens, she reveals how good governance and good cooking share common themes – structure, discipline, and the ability to adapt under pressure. She also touches on how her teaching methods aim to empower everyday cooks to feel more confident and creative in the kitchen. We round off the conversation by discussing her vision for the Cookery Lab, her thoughts on the art versus science debate in cooking, and how she's combining her corporate experience with her culinary passion to teach life skills through food. Whether you love to cook or avoid the kitchen at all costs, Sarah's insights offer valuable lessons for anyone looking to rethink their relationship with food and/or their career. Guest Biography:Sarah describes herself as a chef, educator, and owner of the Cookery Lab – a unique cookery school that uses a science-led approach to teaching cooking skills.Prior to founding the Cookery Lab, Sarah worked in chemistry, financial regulation, and governance at the Bank of England. Her background in chemistry informs her cooking classes, where she helps everyday cooks understand the scientific principles behind recipes, encouraging them to experiment and build confidence in the kitchen. The Cookery Lab is designed to look like a chemistry classroom, complete with lab chairs, beakers, and test tubes, reinforcing Sarah's mission to demystify cooking through science. The Cookery Lab offers classes for all ages, focusing on life skills, confidence-building, and the joy of cooking, regardless of prior experience. AI-Generated Timestamp Summary[00:00:00] Introduction to Sarah Ward and her career path[00:01:00] From chemistry to regulation to cooking [00:02:30] What is the Cookery Lab?[00:04:00] Why cooking is a life skill everyone should learn [00:05:30] The pivotal moment at her son's school kitchen[00:07:00] Childhood memories of a sandwich shop project[00:10:00] The governance and gastronomy connection[00:12:00] The leap from chemistry to financial regulation [00:14:00] What Solvency II taught her about governance[00:16:00] The importance of reading board minutes [00:20:00] How Sarah applied her regulatory background in the kitchen[00:23:00] Learning leadership lessons from Michelin-starred chefs[00:27:00] Kitchen culture and the art of giving feedback [00:30:00] The challenges of transitioning from corporate to culinary[00:34:00] How science influences her teaching style[00:38:00] Creating a unique learning space at the Cookery Lab[00:42:00] How cooking can be both art and science [00:46:00] Lessons learned from running the Cookery Lab[00:50:00] Final thoughts and where to find Sarah Links:The Cookery Lab: https://www.thecookerylab.com/ Sarah on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-ward-87406147/ Tech Camp, the business run by Sarah's husband teaching kids real engineering and programming through custom take-home projects: https://www.techcamp.org.uk/Leith's culinary school: https://leiths.com/ The research that shows that eating together can increase happiness: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2025/mar/comment-why-sharing-meals-can-make-people-happier-what-evidence-142-countries-shows

Parisa Tabriz is vice president and general manager for Google Chrome, the world's leading browser platform. She leads efforts to make Chrome a secure and essential enterprise workspace, integrating AI and advanced cybersecurity to meet evolving business needs. In this episode, Parisa joins Bob to explore how Chrome is redefining the browser as a productivity and security platform, the role of AI in enterprise protection, and what's next for Chrome's innovations.Chrome at Google Cloud NextThe Big Themes:Chrome's Evolution into a Central Productivity and Security Platform: Over the past 17 years, Chrome has transformed from a simple web browser into a comprehensive platform integral to enterprise productivity and security. Users now spend a significant portion of their workday within Chrome, utilizing it for tasks ranging from document editing to video conferencing. This shift has positioned Chrome as the new endpoint in enterprise environments.Simplifying Enterprise Security with Chrome: Complexity is often the enemy of security. Chrome aims to simplify enterprise security by integrating protective measures directly into the browser, reducing the need for multiple, potentially conflicting security solutions. Features like automatic updates, built-in phishing protection, and centralized policy management allow IT teams to maintain a secure environment with less overheads.Personalization, Governance, and AI Empowerment: Chrome prioritizes features that allow organizations to personalize user experiences while maintaining strict governance over data and AI usage.

With the Government pledging to overhaul the way food is sourced for public institutions like hospitals, schools, prisons, and army bases, Sheila Dillon explores how these changes could be implemented and why they are deemed essential by many.Sheila visits St Peter's Hospital in Chertsey, Surrey, where chef Raouf Mansour has transformed the canteen for staff and visitors. After bringing the operation in-house post-Covid, the hospital began collaborating with local suppliers to provide fresh, seasonal produce. Raouf emphasises that retraining chefs to prepare nutritious, mezze-style meals has been crucial in encouraging staff to dine at the restaurant. The hospital is also working on plans to revamp patient meals, which are all prepared off-site, by working with smaller local caterers who can better meet some of the specific needs of patients there.Following her visit, Sheila returns to the studio to discuss whether the changes in Chertsey could signal a broader trend. She is joined by:Kevin Morgan, Professor of Governance and Development at Cardiff University and author of "Serving the Public: The Good Food Revolution in Schools, Hospitals, and Prisons" Kath Dalmeny, Chief Executive of Sustain Katie Palmer from Food Sense Wales, who is working on the Welsh Veg in Schools Project Derek Wright from Blackpool Catering Services, which has expanded its school meal provision over the past five years, with on-site chefs and locally sourced produce.Presented by Sheila Dillon Produced in Bristol for BBC Audio by Natalie Donovan
