Episode SummaryIn this episode of OnBase, host Chris Moody is joined by Alison Mendoza to dive into the power of the Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) framework and its transformative impact on innovation, marketing, and product strategy. Alison shares her non-linear journey into R&D, how her background in linguistics shapes her collaboration with engineers, and how JTBD allows companies to avoid blind spots and uncover real customer needs.Listeners will gain insights into how Honeywell uses behavioral science and JTBD to drive meaningful product adoption, why traditional voice-of-customer methods often fall short, and how AI is unlocking strategic work by automating repetitive tasks. From uncovering misaligned innovation strategies to empowering teams through better language and observation, this episode is a masterclass in modern customer-centric thinking.Key takeaways:Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) vs. Hypotheticals: JTBD eliminates guesswork by focusing on observable behaviors, not hypothetical customer desires.Behavioral Science + JTBD = Impact: The fusion of decision-making psychology with JTBD drives better adoption and product-market fit.Innovation Pitfalls: Over-reliance on competitor analysis or legacy processes can limit true innovation.Speak Their Language: Product teams must translate customer outcomes into language engineers can act on.AI for Strategic Work: Honeywell's $120M in AI-driven savings shows how tech can free time for impactful, strategic work.Quotes:“We don't really have to worry about product-market fit if we've built a product on the Jobs-to-be-Done framework.”“If you use AI for simple tasks, it will give you simple output. Use it for complex challenges—like segmentation or positioning—and you'll see exponential value.”Best Moments Tech recommendations:⁠⁠Notebook LM (Google)⁠⁠: A powerful AI research assistant ideal for strategic marketing and A/B testing.Resource recommendations:⁠⁠Thinking, Fast and Slow⁠⁠ by Daniel KahnemanBooks by ⁠⁠Jonah Berger⁠⁠ – Practical marketing playbooks from the Wharton professor⁠⁠321 Newsletter by James Clear⁠⁠ – Weekly insights on habits, strategy, and self-improvementLeaders to follow:⁠⁠Chandler Stillman⁠⁠– Director, Marketing & Customer Experience at ADDMAN⁠⁠Liz Schmittou⁠⁠– Brand & Marketing Content Leader at ADDMAN⁠⁠Emily Carr⁠⁠– Consulting Account Lead at Google⁠⁠00:30⁠⁠Alison's global career journey from flight attendant to R&D innovatorBest moments:⁠⁠03:00⁠⁠JTBD explained and why most voice-of-customer methods fall short⁠⁠08:30⁠⁠How to bridge engineering and customer outcomes with the right language⁠⁠14:00⁠⁠The synergy between behavioral science and JTBD in shaping innovation⁠⁠16:40⁠⁠Honeywell's AI success: $120M saved through automation and productivity tools⁠⁠20:20⁠⁠The evolving challenges of B2B marketing and the role of dynamic contentAbout the guest:Alison is the Global Sr. Director of Innovation at Honeywell International, leading innovation and growth across the Honeywell portfolio of businesses.

Are you spending like other consumers? Retail sales in the month of October showed an impressive gain of 2.8% compared to last year. With lower gasoline prices, gas stations were a major negative as they declined 7.1% compared to last year. If this group was excluded from the headline number, retail sales would have been up an even more impressive 3.7%. There were several areas of strength as gains were quite broad across various industries, but nonstore retailers, which was up 7.0% and food services and drinking places, which was up 4.3% continued to lead the charge. Interestingly, both furniture and home furnishing stores, which was up 1.5% and building material and garden equipment and supplies dealers, which was up 2.8% showed annual gains for the first time in many months. I wouldn't necessarily say these categories are particularly strong, but it appears they may have finally bottomed. With that said, I do believe they could be areas of strength in 2025 considering they have both been depressed areas for a couple of years now and I believe people will look towards home improvement next year. Overall, this is further evidence that the consumer remains healthy and willing to spend in this economy.    How the tariffs with China could play out over the next few months I'm beginning to get questions from people who have concerns about the tariffs on China products such as when will they start? How much will they be and should I buy products such as appliances now before the tariffs on China begin? These are all great questions. It's important to understand the tariffs cannot be placed until after the inauguration of the Mr. Trump. It is possible on is his first day that could be one of the many things he will do when he is the official president. It is, however, possible that he may hold off on the tariffs because the purpose of tariffs is to force equal trade or free trade with China, and Mr. Trump may want to use tariffs as a negotiation tool. In 2023 the trade deficit with China was $279 billion. Mr. Trump wants China to import more goods from our economy, which was only $148 billion in 2023. This could come from such things as agricultural products and based on the amount of oil we could be pumping in 2025, we may have more oil than we can use here and maybe China will purchase some. There are also other products as well that will be on the table. It should also be noted last time Mr. Trump was in office, China's economy was very strong, and they were not as willing to negotiate. Fast forward to today and the Chinese economy has weakened. This could mean they would be more open to talk on trade to help their economy. No one knows exactly what the new president will do or how much the tariffs will be, but if you need to buy goods that are made in China, your window of opportunity may be running out!   Is inflation continuing to cool? The October Consumer Price Index (CPI) showed price gains came in line with expectations. Headline CPI increased 2.6% compared to last year and core CPI, which excludes food and energy climbed 3.3%. The headline CPI was above September's reading of 2.4% and core CPI matched September's reading of 3.3%. According to economists, the monthly inflation rate in October 2023 was unusually low, which made the October 2024 reading look relatively high. Hopefully, this means we will see further progress in the months ahead as core CPI has not shown much progress as of last as it has been stuck at 3.2% or 3.3% since May's 3.4% reading. While much of this sounds problematic, there are not many areas of concern when looking at the inflation report. The major issue continues to be shelter which rose 4.9% compared to last year and accounted for over 65% of the annual increase in core CPI. I continue to believe shelter inflation will eventually resolve itself, which would then bring the major inflation measures more in line with the Fed's desired level. Powell even said during a press conference, “Market rents, newly signed leases, are experiencing very low inflation." He also mentioned the current shelter inflation readings are due to a catch-up problem and "It's not really reflecting current inflationary pressures." I do believe with this report a December cut looks more likely, but that would not leave room for as many cuts in 2025. Based on the current data, I believe a Fed Funds Rate around 3.5% would be a fair level and that compares to a current Fed Funds Rate of 4.5-4.75%. That means if there is a cut in December, we could be looking at maybe just 3 or 4 rate cuts next year.    Work Income vs Retirement Income When planning for retirement, it's important to understand the difference between your work income and your retirement income. If you get paid $200k/year, close to $17k/month, after taxes and savings, your net paycheck might be closer to $120k/year or $10k/month. If you go into retirement with the idea that you need to replace that entire $200k of income to continue your lifestyle, that's just not true. In retirement you are not paying payroll taxes, which in California is a flat rate of 8.75%, you're typically not saving much anymore, and if planned properly, you're paying less federal and state taxes as well. In this scenario, Social Security alone might be between $5,000 and $6,000 per month for a married couple which means any retirement savings just need to cover the remaining living expense need which a nest egg of about $1 million should be able to do if invested appropriately, even after taxes are considered. We see retirees all the time where their income potential, or the maximum amount they can spend without running out of money, is much larger than they are currently living on, and they have no idea. If you're planning for retirement, know how much you actually need so you can either retire earlier or at least have the peace of mind that you are financial independent if you'd rather keep working.     Companies Discussed: Honeywell International Inc.

3G Licensing, S.A. v. Honeywell International Inc.

Charles Vavra v. Honeywell International, Inc.

Honeywell International is one of the largest companies in the world, ranking 115th in the Fortune 500 and operating in 70 countries around the world. With lines of business in aerospace, building technology, workplace safety, and digital technology, Honeywell is applying its expertise to reduce its environmental impact. Since 2018, Honeywell has reduced CO2 emissions by 18%, progressing toward its Scope 1 and 2 carbon neutrality goal for 2035. Our guest, Dr. Gavin Towler, the Chief Sustainability Officer at Honeywell, led those efforts. He brings more than 30 years of experience in the chemicals and fuels industry to the conversation today and has helped Honeywell reduce the emissions associated with its refrigerants and electric vehicle solutions while engaging the wider industry to encourage environmental progress.  An essential aspect of Honeywell's progress is its focus on reducing operational carbon intensity, the amount of CO2 it generates to earn revenue, which fell from 60.5 MT of CO2e per $1 million of revenue in 2018 to 49.5 MT in 2022. Some of the projects Honeywell is pursuing include emissions management systems for oil and gas facilities that monitor and measure emissions and recover flare gas that traditionally was burned as waste. The company also launched battery energy storage systems to backup electric grids and is a leading producer of blue hydrogen, made from natural gas, at a facility that scrubs 98% of the CO2 produced by the process.

My topics come because I look for a book to buy on the subject and can't find one. I know it's supposed to be fancier than that, or that there must be some grand theory of my work, but there isn't one. That said, my readers seem to enjoy what I've written, so maybe it's fine? I am inspired by my literary heroes, including Robert Caro, Laura Hillenbrand, Candice Millard, Daniel James Brown, and Barbara Tuchman, among many others. They are all rigorous researchers—but reading their books doesn't feel like doing homework. That's what I'm going for, and hopefully I hit the mark a few times.

The Arizona Technology Council is one of the largest technology-driven trade associations in North America, with over 850 members and growing, the only organization specifically serving technology companies statewide. They protect innovators and truly believe that technology moves all of us forward; and are dedicated to the future of Arizona. Chips & Science Act is good for Semiconductors & the U.S. Supply Chain Clean Energy - many Tech Co's working on zero emission plan Semiconductor – big Tech Co's building plants in AZ Nuclear Power tech is vastly improved & viable in the future Full Show: HERE   Seg 2 Array Technologies main product is a solar tracker, part on a solar panel, allows the panel to move with the angle of the sun The trend in building solar panels is to go with a larger, kind of a giant panel and like wind bi-facial to keep up with where the sun is Typical solar panel is made with silicon wafer technology, and usually made in China. The company is a domestic US Corp. with offices worldwide, and they use new technology, not silicon away for tech. Their clients range from the US to Europe to Australia Africa and Canada Array Technology is module agnostic, their solar tracker can go on any solar panel They are a utility scale company, with bigger clients that are connected to the power grid using solar farms. The power grid in Phoenix Arizona uses very little solar or renewable energy, just 4%. Array Tech works with both APS and SRP Solar growth rate is 194% over last 5 years Array tech moving into an area of organic growth and strategic acquisitions. They are a 30 year old company which went public in October 2020. The overall projected goal for the US by 2040 is to have 40% from solar or renewable energy. Another goal is to have no carbon by 2035. Growth and solar for Array Technologies is 160% organic growth year over a year. Lots of commercial construction and solar.   Seg 3 The Inflation Reduction Act Bill of 2022, or IRA is a 750 page bill with large parts for renewable energy on a ten-year runway. The Inflation Reduction Act is the single most significant legislation to combat climate change in our nation's history, investing a total of $369 billion to help build a clean energy economy.Nov 29, 2022 https://www.energy.gov/lpo/inflation-reduction-act-2022   The long-term tax credits are very valuable for business investment. Previous government bills tax credits that were short term, 2 to 3 years. Government is looking for mass adoption of renewable energy to make energy clean and in our control. Currently in renewable energy, Europe is #1 and the US is #2. It's a long-term 10 to 20 year process to ramp down from fossil fuels while also building the needed infrastructure. Renewable Energy makes sense in different parts of the world. For example on the East Coast of the US wind can be very usable for energy, and on the West Coast solar can be of great benefit. Also over the long term both nuclear and hydrogen energy sources can be part of the solution. Battery storage is one of the biggest challenges in renewable energy and solar. The analogy is like the PC processing power of 20 years ago, where it was small slow and inefficient. Battery storage will be a lot better in five and even 10 years. RE+ https://www.re-plus.com/ is a solar tradeshow, & this past year batteries were one of the hot commodity topics. Battery power and technology is critical for the utility and power grid to build infrastructure. The permitting rules need to improve to lessen the regulation process for building out that infrastructure. Wind, EVs and natural gas plus solar tax credits is all part of the solution. The government also has an advanced manufacturing tax credit to have company is Bill domestic with also supplies made in the USA. Long-term investment in the energy plan with the government help and government as a customer   Seg 4 E.S.G. investing band is gaining headwind with venture capital and private equity money going towards renewable energy projects. Per Erica this is the modern day gold rush in a very good long-term investing bet. ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. Investors are increasingly applying these non-financial factors as part of their analysis process to identify material risks and growth opportunities. Array Technologies puts the ‘Big E' in ESG, as they are a manufacturer of an environmental product. E.S.G. simply ask companies to measure and improve on their environmental footprint, while also showing transparency. There is a new supplier code of conduct, where our business customers would prefer you to not use old energy sources to create the product. The idea of being to move towards new energy sources, not perfection but progress. Also being studied is how to build better solar farms and reduce their impact on the land in an environmental manner. Companies do not want to disrupt the land or heard it long-term. And ongoing issue currently is finding labor to build solar farms. Companies like Omni Track use topography for best use of the land. Farmers who build solar farms can engage in dual purpose of their land as the solar farms can shade livestock and crops. Other areas you will see solar farms built will be parking lots, commercial buildings, residential or apartment buildings. Engineers can determine best sourcing use for solar panels.

The Founder and President of the Dementia Society of America® talks about the misconceptions surrounding cognitive impairment, ways to improve brain health, and how the not-for-profit organization educates and empowers senior living communities and caregivers to better support those challenged with cognitive decline. About Kevin Starting as a young entrepreneur at age of 18 and having launched several start-up businesses in the security industry, Mr. Jameson built his career as a sales and marketing executive, which has included over 35 years with major corporate divisions of ADT, BOSCH, and Honeywell International. Author, singer, inventor, and patent holder, Kevin has traveled to Europe, Asia, India, Australia, the Middle East, Africa, South and Central America, and throughout North America to see how the world really lives. Kevin also has a personal story and connection to dementia. His first wife, Ginny, together for 32 years, died from dementia, and thus he leads the fight with thoughts, words, and deeds. In 2016, Jameson was awarded a Doctorate of Public Service, Honoris Causa (DrHC) for his life's work, by his alma mater. His establishment of the Dementia Society nearly ten years ago is still a mission in the making. Key Takeaways ​Senior living companies often “miss the boat” when it comes to dementia. Dementia is a syndrome not a disease (Alzheimer's is a disease.) Dementia effects more than memory. Early indicators of some types of dementia are personality and behavior changes. We can improve brain health and increase neuroplasticity by modifying risk factors and our environment. Important steps include improving nutrition, increasing movement, spending time outdoors, and creating cognitive reserves through lifelong learning. The Dementia Society offers presentations on dementia and brain health, virtually or in person, for senior living communities to share with prospects and residents. Informational pamphlets are provided to doctor's offices and care communities.

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Oprah Winfrey, “Every time you state what you want or believe, you're the first to hear it. It's a message to both you and others about what you think is possible. Don't put a ceiling on yourself."   YouTube: https://youtu.be/Qh-e19986zk   Check Out These Highlights:  As I write this introduction and reflect on this quote, I realize the importance of not putting a ceiling on ourselves.  This can be tough for business owners. We are often in our own worlds and minds.   Collaboration, ongoing learning, trial and error, tenacity, having a healthy mindset, and never giving up, are just some of the needed skills we need to tap into as business owners. Having an entrepreneurial mindset can help you start a business but also help you perform at a higher level in your corporate job too.    If you are thinking about starting a side hustle or launching your own business, you are in store for a treat.   About Professor Scott Livengood, a.k.a. the Seinfeld Sensei:  Scott earned his Ph.D. in Strategic Management from the University of Maryland and his Master of Business Administration and Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah.    He worked at KPMG, and Honeywell International along the way, but his true passion lies in education. He is the lead author of "That's Our Turf! Identity Domains and Competitive Dynamics" with Rhonda Reger, and has been an award-winning teacher ("sensei" in Japanese) of strategy and entrepreneurship at numerous universities throughout the United States and to groups around the world.   An Ironman, lover of music, movies, and sports, avid traveler, and curious explorer of the world around him, Scott is also fluent in Japanese and Seinlanguage.   How to Get in Touch With Scott Livengood Website:  http://seinfeldsensei.com/ Email:  seinfeldsensei@gmail.com Free Trial:  https://livengoodsensei.kyvio.net/trial EZone:  https://youtu.be/Ieq6vsYaqPs   Stalk me online!

1,000 Acres Of Ancestral Land Returned To Onondaga Nation Earlier this month, more than 1,000 acres of land in central New York were returned to the Onondaga Nation, the original steward of the land. This decision stems from a 2018 settlement between the Natural Resource Trustees and Honeywell International, Inc., which previously owned the land and polluted it with dangerous toxins, such as mercury and heavy metals. Under this agreement, Honeywell will fund and implement 18 restoration projects, and the Onondaga Nation will lead the restoration and preservation of its land. “It is with great joy that the Onondaga Nation welcomes the return of the first substantial acreage of its ancestral homelands. The Nation can now renew its stewardship obligations to restore these lands and waters and to preserve them for the future generations yet to come,” Onondaga Nation Chief Tadodaho Sid Hill said in a statement. “The Nation hopes that this cooperative, government-to-government effort will be another step in healing between themselves and all others who live in this region which has been the homeland of the Onondaga Nation since the dawn of time.” Roxanne Khamsi, science writer based in Montreal, Canada, joins Ira to talk about this “landback victory,” which marks one of the largest returns of land to an Indigenous nation in U.S. history. Roxanne and Ira also discuss other science news of the week, including why pulse oximeters aren't inclusive of people with dark skin, how some mosquito-borne viruses trick their hosts into attracting more mosquitoes, the discovery of a one-of-a-kind carnivorous plant that hides its traps underground, why some flowers act as cesspools for bumblebees, and how relocating sea turtle eggs can lead to health issues for newborn turtles.   A New COVID Wave Is Here, Raising The Risk Of Reinfections Coronavirus is surging again in the United States. The latest sub-variants BA.4 and BA.5 are now dominant. Right now, things are feeling a little different: People who were recently sick are getting reinfected. And those who have so far evaded the virus are getting it for the first time. A new booster based on the new omicron sub-variants is slated to roll out in the fall. Meanwhile, the Biden administration is pushing to allow people under 50 to get a second dose of the currently available booster. Ira is joined by Katelyn Jetelina, adjunct professor at UTHealth School of Public Health and author of the newsletter, Your Local Epidemiologist and Jessica Malaty Rivera, epidemiology fellow at Boston Children's Hospital and senior advisor at the Pandemic Prevention Institute to debunk the latest pandemic misinformation and update us on the current state of the virus.   Texas Heatwave Puts Strain on Electric Grid Texans woke up Monday morning to a familiar fear, worried that the state's electric grid may not provide enough energy to see them through the day. While the anxiety is understandable, a shortfall of energy reserves on the system does not automatically mean the grid operator will order rolling blackouts. If you, like millions of others, are wondering about the likelihood of blackouts, here's a review of what happens if the state falls short of power. Read the rest at sciencefriday.com.   Gene Editing Is Easy—And A Crime—In This New Techno Thriller Book Logan Ramsay wakes up one morning and feels different. It's not allergies, and it's not the flu. If anything, he feels sharper: He needs less sleep, and can multitask and read at lightning speed. What's going on with him? It turns out his genome has been hacked: tiny changes were made to his DNA to make him a bit of a superhuman. But at what cost? This is the plot of Upgrade, Science Friday's next book club pick, and a new science fiction novel that mixes real science concepts—notably CRISPR—with a fast-paced plot. It's written by author Blake Crouch, who was inspired to write the book in part because of a Science Friday appearance in 2016. It's also our current book club pick. Blake joins Ira to discuss a future where gene editing is used to hack drugs, people, and animals, and how far off we are from the book's climate disaster surveillance state.   Transcripts for each segment will be available the week after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Today's guest is Larry Bossidy … the former chairman and CEO of Honeywell International and author of the book Execution: The Discipline of Getting Things Done. Have you ever put together a business strategy that didn't work? Or perhaps the plans to execute that strategy weren't effective and ultimately, you failed? Building a strategy is one thing and executing it successfully is another.  But Larry knows what it takes to get things done and in this conversation, you're going to hear how he leverages three things, just three things to make big things happen: people, strategy, and operations. It was the process and discipline he put around those parts of the business that made his teams successful and it's what you can focus on as a leader if you too want to be successful.

You're listening to the Westerly Sun's podcast, where we talk about news, the best local events, new job postings, obituaries, and more. First, a bit of Rhode Island trivia. Today's trivia is brought to you by Perennial.  Perennial's new plant-based drink “Daily Gut & Brain” is a blend of easily digestible nutrients crafted for gut and brain health. A convenient mini-meal, Daily Gut & Brain” is available now at the CVS Pharmacy in Wakefield. Now for some trivia. Did you know that Rhode Island is home to the famed pirate, Thomas Tew? Also known as the Rhode Island Pirate, he was a 17th-century English privateer-turned pirate. He embarked on two major pirate voyages and met a bloody death on the second, and he pioneered the route which became known as the Pirate Round which involved traveling from the Western Atlantic, to the Southern tip of Africa, stopping at Madagascar and then up to Yemen and India. Many other infamous pirates followed in his path, including Henry Every and William Kidd. Now, we turn our feature story…. We start off the week with bittersweet news in Rhode Island. The pandemic in America is ending and a Rhode Island factory once praised by former President Donald Trump for ramping up production of N95 face masks in the early days of the pandemic is laying off nearly 500 workers as the pandemic eases and demand for the face coverings wanes. A spokesperson for Honeywell International told WPRI-TV on Wednesday that about 470 jobs at the Smithfield facility are being cut. Employees are being urged to apply for other jobs at the company and some eligible workers will receive severance, he said. “We are now seeing a dramatic reduction in demand for N95s in the U.S. as many states are ending or scaling back mask mandates and vaccinations are being widely distributed,” Eric Krantz said in a statement. “For these reasons, Honeywell is adjusting its N95 operations and ceasing manual production of N95s at our facility in Smithfield.” The company is shifting production of N95s to “more efficient, automated production lines” that were created during the pandemic. The disposable were a critical piece of safety equipment for health care workers and others. “We appreciate the hard work and dedication these employees displayed in helping to protect American frontline workers battling the pandemic,” Krantz said. The Smithfield facility also produces eye protection products, including safety glasses, goggles and face shields. For more on the pandemic, and all things Southern Rhode Island, head over to westerlysun.com There are a lot of businesses in our community that are hiring right now, so we're excited to tell you about some new job listings.

Dwight was born in Westerly in 1936 and attended Westerly Public Schools. He graduated from Worcester Polytechnic Institute with a BS degree in Civil Engineering and was a registered Professional Engineer in several states. After working for several organizations in New York City, Mr. Cornell moved to the Maryland suburb of Damascus where he was employed by Bechtel from 1965 until his retirement in 1993. Most of his work was in the field of design for large nuclear power facilities. Upon retirement he divided his time between West Palm Beach and a summer home in Weekapaug. In Florida, he became involved in the activities of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary. While with the Auxiliary, he taught safe boating courses in the Public Education section and was a Vessel Examiner. Mr. Cornell served as a Flotilla Staff Officer in these endeavors. In appreciation for the education he received at WPI, Dwight has made sizable donations of money and property to the Institute and has established a scholarship in his name in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. He is survived by his brother, two nieces and a nephew, as well as their children; and several cousins. Thank you for taking a moment today to remember and celebrate Dwight's life. That's it for today, we'll be back next time with more! Also, remember to check out our sponsor Perennial, Daily Gut & Brain, available at the CVS on Main St. in Wakefield!

On today's show, we hear from local county emergency managers as the state gets hammered by two winter storms and temperatures in the negatives. Plus, we have highlights from the governor's weekly coronavirus response briefing where he announced changes to restrictions on indoor gatherings. And, we speak with peace activists about why they're asking the University of Arkansas to end its collaboration with Honeywell International.

OMNI Center for Peace, Justice & Ecology activists are asking the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville to end a nuclear weapons research and development collaboration with Honeywell International. The U of A is among 50 universities involved in such partnerships, according to the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), a coalition of non-governmental organizations promoting adherence to and implementation of the United Nations nuclear weapon ban treaty.

This week, your hosts Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey interview Armen Akaragian and Garo Mardirossian of Mardirossian & Associates, Inc. (https://www.garolaw.com/)   Remember to rate and review GTP in iTunes: Click Here To Rate and Review   Episode Details: Los Angeles trial lawyers Armen Akaragian and Garo Mardirossian of Mardirossian & Associates, Inc. explain how they represented the family of Nonki Uno, a 66-year-old restaurant owner who was killed after the accelerator pedal in her 2006 Toyota Camry got stuck following a crash caused by another driver who ran a stop sign. In August 2009, 86-year-old Olga Bello broadsided Nonki Uno's car, sending it spinning and uncontrollably accelerating, crossing the center median curb and striking multiple telephone poles and trees. Nonki was found dead at the scene with her foot broken and mangled under the brake pedal and her emergency brake activated. Originally tried in 2013, this was a bellwether case for nearly 300 unintended acceleration cases involving Toyota vehicles. Toyota failed to include a Brake Override Safety System (B.O.S.S.) in the American model of the Toyota Camry until 2007 and failed to warn consumers about the fact that solid accelerator pedals can get stuck and cause sudden acceleration. Despite Armen and Garo's argument that Toyota and Olga Bello were to blame for Nonki's death, the Los Angeles jury ultimately found Olga 100% responsible and awarded $10,000,000 in noneconomic damages to Nonki's husband and son.    Click Here to Read/Download the Complete Trial Documents   Guest Bios: Armen Akaragian Armen Akaragian is an attorney with the firm of Mardirossian & Associates, in Los Angeles, California. He has been with the firm since 1999. Admitted to practice in 2006, Armen has arbitrated, tried, and settled several cases that have resulted in multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements. Some of the largest entities Armen has represented the firm's clients against include Ford Motor Company, General Motors, Toyota Motor Corporation, Marriott International, Inc., Kiewit Construction, Continental Tire, Land Rover, State of California, Chrysler Motors, Emerson Electric, and Honeywell International. In 2009, he was nominated for the coveted Consumer Trial Attorney of the Year Award by the Consumer Attorneys of California, a statewide organization, following his involvement in the case of Pannu vs. Land Rover. This complex product liability case, which was litigated for more than seven years, tried over eight weeks and underwent a two-year appellate process, ultimately resulted in a fully affirmed judgment in excess of $25,000,000.00. Most notably, the published Court of Appeal opinion set precedent in the State of California excluding from evidence crucial testing that automobile manufacturers have relied upon in defending complex product liability cases for decades. In 2011, Armen again was recognized for his accomplishments by the Armenian Bar Association as one of the top 20 lawyers under 40. This was the first time this award had been given out by the Bar Association. In 2013, Armen was one of the trial attorneys in the first bellwether case tried to verdict, Uno v. Toyota, in the about 300 coordinated cases against Toyota arising from unintended acceleration incidents. The trial lasted for more than three months and resulted in a jury verdict in the amount of $10,000,000.00 for the untimely death of a 66-year-old wife and mother. The case ultimately settled in 2015 at the Appellate Court steps. At that time, the judgment which also included costs and interest exceeded $13,000,000.00. During the trial in Uno v. Toyota, the California Court of Appeal published its opinion in Purton v. Marriott International, Inc., 218 Cal. App. 4th 499 (2013), reversing a grant of summary judgment. The Court of Appeal agreed with Armen's position taken at the trial court level and eventually held that an employer could still be responsible for the acts of its employee who became intoxicated at a company party even if the employee arrived home safely from the party, then left his house and was subsequently involved in a crash. The case eventually started trial in May of 2015 in San Diego. After three weeks and just before plaintiffs rested, the case was resolved for a confidential sum. Armen attended California State University, Northridge, where he earned, in 2002, a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration. He then attended Southwestern University School of Law in Los Angeles, where he was consistently on the Dean's List, and completed his Juris Doctor degree in 2005. During his studies, he was also a Judicial Extern for Honorable Dikran Tevrizian, Judge with the United States District Court for the Central District of California.

Since starting his practice in 1981, Mr. Mardirossian has focused almost exclusively on representing individuals who have been catastrophically injured. Mr. Mardirossian has obtained over 100 seven- and eight-figure verdicts and settlements, including eight-figure verdicts in product liability, general negligence, and civil rights cases. In April of 2019, Mr. Mardirossian obtained the largest settlement ever against the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department in the amount of $42,200,000.00 in the case of Fong v. LA County Sheriff's Department, where a rogue Sheriff's Deputy lost control of his patrol car while responding to a call, Code 3, and hit the plaintiff who suffered a broken leg and a moderate TBI. Despite the crash, within six months, the plaintiff returned back to work without any limitations. In an earlier case against the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Dole v. LA County Sheriff's Department, members of the Dole family were beaten and arrested at the Dole home while celebrating a bridal shower. Mr. Mardirossian obtained a defense verdict in the felony criminal case prosecuted against members of the Dole family and then obtained a jury award in the amount of $24,850,000.00 in the civil rights action -- the largest judgment in history against the Sheriff's Department at the time. In Mendoza v. LA County Sheriff's Department, Mr. Mardirossian obtained a $14,350,000.00 settlement for the family of Frank Mendoza, a grandfather who was mistakenly shot and killed by Sheriff's Deputies as he was exiting his home. More recently, in Valenzuela v. City of Anaheim, an excessive force case that resulted in the choking death of Vincent Valenzuela, Garo Mardirossian and Dale Galipo teamed up to obtain a federal court jury verdict of $13,200,000.00 for the family of an unarmed homeless father of two. In the nationally followed Kelly Thomas v. Fullerton Police Department case, Mr. Mardirossian fought for justice for Kelly Thomas, a homeless man suffering from schizophrenia, who was tased and beaten to death by Fullerton Police officers following an encounter that was escalated by the officers. During jury selection, Mr. Mardirossian obtained a settlement of $4,900,000.00 on behalf of Kelly's father. In Kunta Kinte v. Bart Simpson (real names), Mr. Mardirossian represented a South Central family that was beaten and arrested by officers of the LAPD. After obtaining an acquittal in the criminal case, Mr. Mardirossian settled the civil rights action case for $350,000.00. In Zerby v. Long Beach Police Department, Mr. Mardirossian and Dale Galipo obtained a jury verdict of $6,500,000.00 after Long Beach Police officers shot and killed Douglas Zerby, who was sitting on the steps in front of a friend's house. The officers mistook the water nozzle he was holding for a weapon and opened fire. In Amaya v. LA County Sheriff's Department, Mr. Mardirossian obtained a $3,050,000.00 jury verdict on behalf of the family of a man who was shot and killed in his home by Sheriff's Deputies who were executing an arrest warrant. In Ponce v. City of Anaheim, Mr. Mardirossian obtained a $1,650,000.00 settlement for the children of Adalid Flores, who was shot and killed by Anaheim Police Department officers who believed his cell phone was a gun. In 2000, Mr. Mardirossian won the prestigious CAALA Trial Lawyer of the Year award. In 2010, he was elected CAALA's president. He has been named by the Daily Journal as one of the top 100 Lawyers in California, and he has had numerous published decisions that have set an important precedent in California, including Purton v. Marriott International, Inc., 218 Cal. App. 4th 499 (2013); Pannu v. Land Rover, 191 Cal. App. 4th 1298 (2011); Mardirossian & Associates, Inc. v. Ersoff, 153 Cal.

Business leaders often take actions that prop up earnings in the short term, but compromise their companies’ long-term health. David Cote, the much-respected former leader of Honeywell International and one of the most successful CEOs of his generation, shares a simple, paradigm-shifting method of achieving both short- and long-term goals. Short-termism is rampant among executives and managers today, causing many companies to underperform and even go out of business. With competition intense and investors demanding strong quarterly gains now, leaders all too often feel obliged to sacrifice the investments so necessary for long-term growth. Dave Cote is intimately familiar with this problem. Upon becoming Honeywell’s CEO in 2002, he encountered an organization on the verge of failure, thanks to years of untrammeled short-termism. To turn the company around, he and his team adopted a series of bold operational reforms and counterintuitive leadership practices that enabled them to “do two conflicting things at the same time”–pursue strong short- and long-term results. The outcome was phenomenal. Under Cote’s leadership, Honeywell’s market cap grew from $20 billion to $120 billion, delivering returns of about 800%, two and a half times greater than the S&P 500. Bio: As Chairman and CEO of the industrial giant Honeywell over 16 years, David Cote grew the company’s market capitalization from around $20 billion to nearly $120 billion, delivering returns of 800 percent and beating the S&P by nearly two and a half times. Currently, David is Executive Chairman of Vertiv Holdings Co, a global data center products and services provider. He is a member of the Aspen Economic Strategy Group and on the Boards of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Conference of Montreal.

Minnesota is working hard to create more affordable housing. But if we build structures that are not super-efficient, residents will be saddled with high energy bills—and we will miss an opportunity to improve our built environment, a top source of carbon emissions in the state. Now more than ever the topic of affordable housing has become even more critical.In July 2020, Fresh Energy hosted conversations with Minnesota thought leaders and Fresh Energy staff about how super-efficient buildings can become the new normal in equitable affordable housing. This is the second in the four-part series featuring a discussion with Gina Ciganik, Chief Executive Officer of the Healthy Building Network.With the increased attention on affordable housing in this current crisis, we know that the conversation has only just begun and it’s crucial that energy efficiency be part of the equation. We must build new affordable housing that is so energy efficient it can be heated and cooled with small amounts of renewable electricity. It makes economic sense, it improves indoor air quality, and it also dramatically reduces carbon emissions.We have the know-how to build super-efficient housing that is affordable over the long term. Why isn’t all new housing built that way, and how can we do better? Fresh Energy is bringing people together from diverse areas of the affordable housing arena to explore this issue.Thank you to Stoel Rives LLP for sponsoring this event.Meet the SpeakersGina Ciganik is the Chief Executive Officer of the Healthy Building Network. In her previous role at HBN she established and led the HomeFree initiative, an expansion of HBN’s healthy materials work into the affordable housing sector. Prior to HBN, she was Vice President of Housing Development at a Minneapolis-St. Paul area affordable housing development organization, where she spent two decades creating thousands of healthy, affordable homes, including The Rose, a 90-unit apartment building that set a new national standard for healthy materials.As Director of Energy Access and Equity, Ben directs Fresh Energy’s work to advance equitable outcomes across Minnesota’s energy system, and also supports the organization’s diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. He joined Fresh Energy as a Policy Associate in May 2015. Ben’s previous experience includes legal clerkships with the Minnesota Department of Commerce and Honeywell International, and internships with Governor Mark Dayton and Senator John Marty.

Business Day TV — Wayne McCurrie from FNB Wealth & Investments chose Spar as his stock pick of the day and David Shapiro from Sasfin Securities chose Honeywell International. McCurrie said: "Spar looks good, I don't think that we've missed the boat on this one. Look everyone's getting food inflation, everyone that I talk to, like Spar in the interview today, if you chat to Famous Brands, you chat to Spur management. Now I mean this is all what I get told by companies, they all say there seems to be some stability, it seems to be the worst is over. That's despite the catastrophic retail sales number that came out today, but when you chat to management who've got their feet on the ground, it doesn't appear as though it's getting worse." Shapiro said: "I pick Honeywell, remember that they used to make big fat computers, but today it's a software business and really superbly run. You can see from their chart there but what I like about it is where they're going and they're going into the kind of software that runs industry, that helps you cut costs and helps you do maintenance. It's high-level software in the Aeronautics space and aircrafts all over and in factories in various other places as well. I think super company, you know we all bought General Electric and ignored Honeywell, I should have bought Honeywell."

Today's podcast is a re-rewind. It is an interview that I did with Monique Carkum Edwards earlier in 2019. She is a phenomenal woman who has an awesome story of why she left her job as a successful corporate attorney to pursue her purpose. Whether working as a career coach, executive strategist, or pastor, Monique is passionate about serving others into greatness. Prior to founding Gravitas Executive Coaching, Monique spent over 18 years working as a corporate attorney. After graduating from the NYU School of Law, she practiced at New York-based law firm Debevoise & Plimpton before joining the legal team at Honeywell International, where she quickly advanced from Assistant General Counsel of Corporate Finance to divisional General Counsel, providing legal oversight for one of the company’s global business segments. Even with all of the corporate success Monique had she still did not feel fulfilled. In this episode she shares her journey and what prompted her to begin looking for fulfillment. Her story is powerful, encouraging and reminds us that our "assignments may change, but our call and purpose remains the same". --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/tisha-talks/message

Eric Zinterhofer, chairman of Charter Communications Inc. and co-founder of Searchlight Capital Partners, says Charter management was caught by surprise by Comcast Corp.'s behind-the-scenes attempt to usurp its $80 billion deal for Time Warner Cable. ``Blindsided is probably an understatement,'' he says. Zinterhofer reflects on Charter's journey from bankruptcy to potential cable giant and discusses why he left Apollo Management for Searchlight with Bloomberg's Alex Sherman and Kiel Porter. Plus, Bloomberg M&A reporter Ed Hammond chats about the likelihood of a merger between Honeywell International and United Technologies.

RFIDiggity: Pentester Guide to Hacking HF/NFC and UHF RFID Francis Brown Partner - Bishop Fox Shubham Shah Security Analyst at Bishop Fox Have you ever attended an RFID hacking presentation and walked away with more questions than answers? This talk will finally provide practical guidance for penetration testers on hacking High Frequency (HF - 13.56 MHz) and Ultra-High Frequency (UHF – 840-960 MHz). This includes Near Field Communication (NFC), which also operates at 13.56 MHz and can be found in things like mobile payment technologies, e.g., Apple Pay and Google Wallet. We'll also be releasing a slew of new and free RFID hacking tools using Arduino microcontrollers, Raspberry Pis, phone/tablet apps, and even 3D printing. This presentation will NOT weigh you down with theoretical details or discussions of radio frequencies and modulation schemes. It WILL serve as a practical guide for penetration testers to better understand the attack tools and techniques available to them for stealing and using RFID tag information, specifically for HF and UHF systems. We will showcase the best-of-breed in hardware and software that you'll need to build an RFID penetration toolkit. Our goal is to eliminate pervasive myths and accurately illustrate RFID risks via live attack DEMOS: High Frequency / NFC – Attack Demos: HF physical access control systems (e.g., iCLASS and MIFARE DESFire 'contactless smart card' product families) Credit cards, public transit cards, passports (book), mobile payment systems (e.g., Apple Pay, Google Wallet), NFC loyalty cards (e.g., MyCoke Rewards), new hotel room keys, smart home door locks, and more Ultra-High Frequency – Attack Demos: Ski passes, enhanced driver's licenses, passports (card), U.S. Permanent Resident Card ('green card'), trusted traveler cards Schematics and Arduino code will be released, and 100 lucky audience members will receive one of a handful of new flavors of our Tastic RFID Thief custom PCB, which they can insert into almost any commercial RFID reader to steal badge info or use as a MITM backdoor device capable of card replay attacks. New versions include extended control capabilities via Arduino add-on modules such as Bluetooth low energy (BLE) and GSM/GPRS (SMS messaging) modules. This DEMO-rich presentation will benefit both newcomers to RFID penetration testing as well as seasoned professionals.

Trading Block: VIX - The Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index fell 4.6 percent Thursday to 17.21, after back-to-back gains for the first time since Sept. 28. VIX is down 30 percent this month, on track for the most since July. Earnings:  The third-quarter earnings crunch begins this week. Mattel (MAT) - $22.26, Oct 22 straddle - Approx. $2 / 9% move. Netflix (NFLX) added fewer subscribers in the U.S. in the September quarter than it had anticipated. Amazon (AMZN) is up 1.6% at $553.29, as traders celebrate lackluster subscriber statistics for programming rival Netflix, Inc. Odd Block: Calls trade in Micron Technology Inc. (MU), calls trade in Solarwinds Inc. (SWI), and puts trade in Market Vectors Russia ETF (RSX). Listener Mail: Listener questions and comments Question from Angelo M - I have been listening to the Options Playbook Radio episodes on iron butterflies and skip strike butterflies. I wondered what you guys on the All-Star Panel thought about maybe combining those concepts with a ratio iron butterfly that sells an extra put on the downside leg. My thought process is to do this in stocks where I expect a big move but I also do not mind buying the underlying at the level of the lower leg? It would also help reduce the outlay of the trade and make it easier to break even. Thoughts? Great show and great discussions. Question from Futures MD - Does theta increase or change intraday - perhaps around lunch? Around the Block: Earnings on Friday, October 16 include GE, Honeywell International and WW Grainger.

China's eastern city of Suzhou has been awarded the Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize for its sound planning principles and good urban management. The nominating committee for the prize praised Suzhou for its achievements in economic prosperity and preservation of celebrated cultural and historic heritage, despite numerous challenges amid the rapid industrialization and urbanization processes in China. Suzhou was selected from among 36 cities. The biennial Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize honors outstanding achievements and contributions to the creation of livable and vibrant urban communities around the world. It seeks to recognize and celebrate efforts in furthering urban solutions and sustainable urban development. The Orange County Water District, which manages a groundwater basin in Orange County, California in the United States, also received the Lee Kuan Yew Water Prize at the same ceremony. Orange County is honored for its pioneering work in groundwater management and water reclamation using advanced water reuse technologies. The Lee Kuan Yew Water Prize is the highlight of the Singapore International Water Week. It was launched in 2008 to honor outstanding contributions by individuals or organizations towards solving the world's water problems by applying innovative technologies or implementing policies and programs which benefit humanity. You're listening to NEWS Plus Special English. I'm Yun Feng in Beijing. Mobile devices have become part of people's daily life nowadays and many passengers bring their devices aboard the plane; but without in-flight WiFi service, they only can play Angry Birds game during the boring flight period. That will change on the flights of Air China, the country's flag carrier. Air China has signed an agreement with U.S. technology company Honeywell International, and will begin testing the system in the second quarter of next year. The system, GX Aviation, is a high-speed in-flight connectivity service powered by satellite networks to enable ships to stay in touch with the shore or call for help. With this technology, passengers on the airplane can expect a 60 percent faster download speed compared with now. The first GX satellite was launched last December, and two new ones are scheduled for launch by the end of this year. The satellites will span the globe and provide a more stable signal. The service can provide real-time data to the ground maintenance center when the airplane is flying, and display the flight routes to passengers. Currently, there are two different solutions to provide in-flight connectivity services, either through ground bases or satellites. This is NEWS Plus Special English. Samsung Electronics, one of the world's biggest smartphone makers, has unveiled its first smartphone powered by Tizen, an open-source operating system, to rely less on Google's Android. The Samsung Z was on show at the Tizen Developer Conference held last week in San Francisco, the United States. The South Korean tech giant says that the phone is optimized with the Tizen software, which will offer a faster startup time and immediate multi-tasking capabilities. The smartphone comes with a 4.8-inch display and Quad-core processor. It features a distinctive home and application layout for easy access to favorite apps. Samsung has been struggling to develop its own operating system to rely less on the Android, which has been working on supports for other Android-based device makers. The Samsung Z will be available in Russia in the third quarter of this year, and is planned to expand to other markets. This is NEWS Plus Special English. Japan has begun its first 4K ultra high-definition broadcasting trail TV service. The Channel 4K is operated by "NexTV-F", meaning "Next Generation Television and Broadcasting Promotion Forum". The channel will air contents provided by member TV stations, covering live music, travel and sports programs, for roughly six hours a day during the preliminary period. Viewers need a 4K television, tuner and antenna. They also need to send an application to the operator to watch the channel. NexTV-F was set up in Japan in May last year to promote 4K broadcasting. It has over 60 corporate members consisting mainly of TV stations, electronics makers, ad agencies and trading houses. The Japanese government is aiming to begin the commercial service for 4K broadcasting in 2016.
