Alexander Horwath's Henry Fonda for President stands among the most notable releases of a still-young year, is certainly the most lauded essay film in recent memory, and was assuredly of personal interest when my friend Zach Lewis offered his approval. As adventurous and open-minded a cinephile as any I know, Zach has equal-parts interest in both the films of Henry Fonda and essayistic, landscape-centered cinema––some Thom Anderson or Harun Farocki come to mind with the former, James Benning the latter––in which Horwath is trading here. I couldn't have been happier to connect with him to discuss the film, and hope our chat is fruitful for you in turn.
Have you ever met someone at work and thought, I'd like to try that job! For Tony Horwath, that eureka moment meant changing his career path from engineering to sales. And then, moving into a founding role for a whole new business pioneering sales outsourcing. In this episode of Biz-eWerk, Tony tells us about his career shift ultimately leading to the establishment of his business, Sales Focus, in 1998. He explains the core mission of Sales Focus: helping clients grow through dedicated sales teams with a process and adaptability that works across various industries, from startups to Fortune 500 companies. Tony also shares insights on the evolution of sales and the impact of technology like AI and offers advice for entrepreneurs facing growth challenges.

1985-ös búcsúelőadásaként Leontyne Price Verdi Aidájának címszerepét formálta meg. Az O patria mia után a közönség négyperces tapsban tör ki. Stephanie Barber Oh My Homeland című rövidfilmje puritán: Leontyne Price mimikájának változása, ahogy Aidából az ovációt fogadó politikai aktorrá válik. Egy arc négy percben a művészet transzformatív erejéről. Alexander Horwath Henry Fonda for President című magisztrális esszéfilmje olyan színészről és képzeletbeli elnökről szól, aki házakat, közösséget, politikai képzelerőt épített, de tartózkodott ennek megvallásától, mindenre nemet mondott, semmit nem kívánt hátrahagyni, még sírja sincs, csak a szél fújja a hamvait. Mire vonatozik Horwath filmjében a „dream life of the nation”, és mit lát egy feminista-konzervatív háziasszony Henry Fondában?Erről a két filmről beszélgetnek a Partizán Filmklub műsorvezetői, Babos Anna és Petri-Lukács Simon.Támogasd te is a Partizán munkáját!https://cause.lundadonate.org/partizan/supportPéntek Reggel, a Partizán hírháttérpodcastja:https://pentekreggel.huA Partizán Podcast oldalait itt találod:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PartizanPodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/partizanpodcast/A Partizán videóit itt tudod megnézni:https://www.youtube.com/c/@PartizanmediaTovábbi támogatási lehetőségekről bővebben:https://www.partizanmedia.hu/tamogatas

Historic buildings collapsing from neglect, a homeless crisis worsening, a housing secretariate clapping for their reports and a Mayor's task force on accountability where no one shows up - leadership expert Graham Crawford and host Laura Babcock analyze Mayor Andrea Horwath's near invisibility a Mayor and failure to stand up to Premier Ford and fight for Hamilton. Hamilton is at a critical juncture, and the evidence is all around us: historic buildings crumbling due to neglect, a growing homeless crisis, and a leadership that seems more focused on self-congratulation than action. We cannot afford to turn a blind eye to the alarming state of our city. As leadership expert Graham Crawford points out, Mayor Andrea Horwath's near-invisibility is a significant concern. We deserve a mayor who will actively fight for our community and challenge Premier Ford's decisions that impact Hamilton. Instead, we have a task force on accountability where attendance is a problem and reports that garner applause rather than tangible change.It's time for us to demand more from our elected officials. We need proactive leadership that prioritizes the well-being of our residents and the preservation of our historical legacy. Our city deserves more than just reports; it deserves a leader who will stand up, speak out, and take meaningful steps toward a brighter future for all. Hamilton needs hope. Hosted on Acast.

Gerechtigkeitssinn, Selbstzweifel und Ehrgeiz sind Eigenschaften, die einen US-Präsidenten auszeichnen sollten. Der Charakterdarsteller Henry Fonda hat diese über Jahrzehnte oft auf der Leinwand verkörpert. Ob als Abraham Lincoln, ausgebeuteter Landarbeiter oder Geschworener, Henry Fonda hat nicht nur Hollywood-Geschichte geschrieben, sondern auch die eines bescheidenen, politisch hoch engagierten Privatmanns. Der ehemalige Direktor des Österreichischen Filmmuseums begibt sich in seinem Essaydokumentarfilm "Henry Fonda for President" auf die biografischen Archivspuren einer Legende. Diese verknüpft Horwath nachdenklich mit komplexen Zusammenhängen zwischen Hollywood und der USA als Kolonialmacht, Einwanderungsnation und Vorzeigedemokratie. Petra Erdmann hat Alexander Horwath ins Diagonal-Studio eingeladen. Der reguläre Filmstart von "Henry Fonda for President" ist in Österreich am 10. Jänner.
In Manuels Rechnung begehen wir heute ein Jubiläum. 40. Folge! Zu diesem Zweck wird mit einem Brieffreund eröffnet. So schön das Zitat von Frank Berzbach ist, so trostlos ist die Garderobe, in welcher diese Folge aufgenommen wird. Zum traurigen Kaktus, der zwischen ihnen steht, passt, dass es bald ein Tränensäcke-Emoticon geben wird. Dennoch sind unsere beiden Helden zwar müde, aber euphorisiert, da eine großartige Woche hinter ihnen liegt. Sie waren in Berlin. Nachdem der CEO beinahe wie einst Ödön von Horwath von einem Ast erschlagen worden wäre, waren sie in einer großen Samstagabendshow zu Gast und hatten dort viele spannende Begegnungen. Erstaunt stellt Manuel fest, dass er Simon innerhalb von 24 Stunden zweimal begeistert erlebt hat. Schuld daran sind die schnellste Frau Deutschlands und ein Katastrophenforscher. Weniger begeistert ist er von Donald Trump, der in China eine Bibel produzieren lässt. Die Hosts verneigen sich noch vor zwei NobelpreisträgerInnen. Während Manuel von der Lektüre von „Die Vegetarierin“ von Han Kang begeistert und verstört zugleich war, warnt Simon, dass der Erfinder der KI mittlerweile Angst vor seiner eigenen Erfindung hat. Bei dem wunderbaren Fotografen und Winzer Stefan Robitsch müssen sich Schwarz und Rubey entschuldigen, weil er ihnen mit der Wahl des Ortes ein so inspirierendes Geschenk gemacht hat, dass die eigentliche Absicht, nämlich fotografiert zu werden, irgendwie den schönen Hang heruntergerutscht ist. Wer Kühe noch nicht lieben sollte, muss die Folge auf jeden Fall zu Ende hören!

Your host, Sri Chellappa, talks with the Founder and CEO of Strategic Thinking Institute, Rich Horwath. One of the key takeaways from the conversation with Rich Horwath was the importance of focusing on expertise rather than solely on experience during succession planning. Rich, a strategic strategy facilitator, coach to executive leadership teams, bestselling author, and expert commentator on business strategy, emphasized the need to identify the 2 or 3 key skills and behaviors that drive expertise in a particular role. This approach ensures that the right competencies are being developed and recognized, setting the stage for a more effective succession process.Rich delved into the significance of taking a strategic look at succession planning and the use of talent scorecards. Rich explained that these scorecards are instrumental in evaluating an employee's technical capabilities, people leadership, and executive skills. By providing real-time feedback, talent scorecards serve as a valuable tool for both quantitative and qualitative evaluation, allowing organizations to make informed decisions about their future leaders.To learn more about Rich's work, click HERE and HERE.

Two Dudes are joined by cartoonist Madeline Horwath to discuss Studio Ghibli's seminal classic, Grave of the Fireflies (1988).

Do you struggle with defining success on your own terms? I am so excited to be joined by Laura Horwath, the owner and founder of Ferne Boutique, a clothing store with four locations in the Detroit area of Michigan. Laura has grown her brick-and-mortar stores through effective networking, community engagement, and maximizing Chamber of Commerce opportunities. But beyond business success, Laura is here to share a personal story that we believe will hit home with many of our boutique owners. Listen in as she opens up about her journey of growing a successful business through effective networking, her personal story of how she dealt with a dip in sales, and the lessons she learned about handling the ups and downs of business. You'll hear how she learned to define success on her own terms, how to focus on what's important and avoid getting stuck on a hamster wheel, and what Laura did to trim the fat and get down to the bare bones of why she's in business.
