Thanks for listening, and please follow us on Insta @NHPTalent and www.youtube.com/thePOZcast For all episodes, please check out www.thePOZcast.com This episode is brought to you by our friends at Dalia. Who's ready for a cold hard fact? Indeed's pricing model -- and all programmatic job advertising -- is based on driving volume. Not outcomes. Job boards get paid on clicks and applies, not hires. Their incentive is to send you more volume. That's what happens with volume-based pricing models. And all that volume creates exactly what you'd expect: mass inefficiency, mountains of unqualified applications, and wasted spend. Meanwhile, TA teams know their career site is already their best source of quality applicants who get hired. TA teams invest in their career sites and employer brand, but the outdated technology makes it too hard for people to connect and apply. Dalia fixes that. Millions of job seekers use Dalia every month to seamlessly connect to employer career sites and apply to jobs using their universal candidate profile. No re-entering information over and over. It's like the ShopPay button, but for jobs. It's secure, it integrates directly into your ATS, and it works instantly on any career site. Employers using Dalia can double their conversion of career site visitors into qualified applicants and hires. Double the hires from traffic you already have. That's how you start cutting your dependence on Indeed.

1. Why Life Planning Should Come Before Financial Planning Why you need to understand the life you want to create before deciding how your money should support it. Using a lifetime cash flow plan to identify future liabilities and the assets needed to fund them. 2. Looking Beyond Investments to Understand Total Wealth Why traditional financial planning can focus too heavily on regulated investments rather than the full picture of someone's wealth. Looking at property, pensions, savings, investments and future earnings as part of a wider wealth plan. 3. The Overlooked Value of Human Capital Understanding human capital as the skills, property, intellectual property, networks and other assets that can generate earnings. How leveraging human capital can create entrepreneurial opportunities, income and financial capital over time. 4. Taking Back Control Through Financial Agency What Steve means by financial agency and why people should have greater ownership of their financial decisions. How proportional planning can provide expert support during complexity, stress or major life changes without creating permanent dependency. 5. How AI Could Change Financial Planning Why AI is reducing the information gap between financial institutions and consumers. How individuals can use AI as a co-pilot to improve their financial capability and productivity while retaining human judgement. 6. Understanding Fees and Making Better Financial Decisions Why consumers should take a closer look at the charges attached to pensions, investments and financial products. How AI-powered tools could help people identify hidden terms, charges and potential red flags so they can make more informed decisions. 7. The Future of Financial Advice and Wealth Transfer How changing consumer expectations, technology and the Great Wealth Transfer could reshape the traditional financial advice model. Why greater financial capability, combined with professional support when genuinely needed, could give future generations more control over their wealth.

In the final episode of our special three-part series exploring Aon's 2026 Human Capital Trends Study, Byron Beebe is joined by Max Saraví and Guy Clarkson to discuss how leaders can turn workforce investments into stronger business outcomes. As workforce and healthcare costs continue to rise, organizations are facing increasing pressure to make every people investment count. The conversation explores how leading employers are using employee value propositions, data and personalization to make more informed decisions, strengthen the employee experience and align workforce strategies with business priorities. The episode also examines how AI and emerging technologies are helping organizations deliver greater value, generate deeper insights and position themselves for long-term growth. Key Takeaways: Leading organizations measure success by outcomes, not spend, ensuring workforce investments strengthen employee experiences while advancing business goals. A strong employee value proposition provides a strategic framework for decision-making, helping leaders prioritize investments that deliver the greatest value for employees and the organization. Data, personalization and AI mean organizations can build more targeted, effective workforce strategies that improve engagement, increase return on investment and help them to stay ahead. Experts in this episode: Byron Beebe, CEO of Human Capital, Aon Max Saraví, Head of Human Capital, Latin America, Aon Guy Clarkson, Head of Online Health, UK, Aon Key Moments: (1:30) Why organizations are rethinking people investments as employee expectations and healthcare costs continue to rise, and how a strong EVP can help employers deliver greater value. (5:05) How leading organizations use data, personalization and employee insights to guide workforce investment decisions and improve employee experiences. (11:00) The future of workforce investment, including AI-powered personalization, integrated employee experiences and the growing importance of data maturity. Soundbites: Byron Beebe: “As workforce costs continue to rise, the real opportunity lies not in spending more but making every investment in your people count.” Max Saraví: “A strong employee value proposition acts as a framework for making better decisions about people investment rather than simply adding more programs or benefits." Guy Clarkson: "For me, an employee value proposition should be a decision-making framework that helps organizations decide where to invest, balancing what matters most to their employees, but also how they can then allocate limited resources."
For decades, economic development has focused on infrastructure, industry and education. But a growing body of evidence suggests another factor may be just as important: healthcare.

Guest: LaVashia Davis, Founder of Ell Wess Advisors (boutique family office and wealth management firm)Host: Rushion McDonaldTopic: Building multigenerational wealth, family wealth planning, asset protection, and creating lasting legacies. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on helping first-generation wealth builders and entrepreneurs understand that wealth creation is about more than investments. Davis explains how families can organize, protect, grow, and transfer wealth across generations by treating their family finances as a structured enterprise rather than simply accumulating money. A central theme is that many successful individuals earn substantial incomes but lack a blueprint for preserving and transferring wealth. Davis advocates for intentional planning, legal structures, family involvement, and asset protection to create lasting legacies. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Requires a Blueprint Davis explains that creating a legacy does not happen automatically. Families need a deliberate plan, legal structures, and defined roles if they want wealth to survive beyond one generation. Takeaway: Making money and building wealth are not the same. Wealth requires systems and succession planning. 2. Family Should Be Treated as an Asset One of Davis's strongest messages is that family members can play meaningful roles in wealth-building efforts. She argues that when people think about legacy, they often overlook the importance of human relationships and family participation. Wealth-transfer strategies frequently require successors, trustees, managers, and beneficiaries. Many of those roles can be filled by family members. Takeaway: Family can be a strategic asset when properly organized and aligned. 3. Not Every Family Member Contributes Equally Davis acknowledges that some family members may behave more like liabilities than assets. Using a balance-sheet analogy, she explains that every family includes both contributors and individuals who may create financial burdens. The key is identifying those dynamics without allowing them to derail long-term wealth planning. Takeaway: Successful family wealth planning requires honest assessment of family dynamics. 4. Wealth Management Is More Than Investments Davis differentiates her firm's approach from traditional investment-focused advisory services. Her firm begins with: Family and wealth governance Legal structures Estate planning Tax planning Business succession planning Preparing future generations to inherit wealth Investments are addressed after these foundational elements are in place. Takeaway: Investments should support a broader wealth strategy, not drive it. 5. "Your Family Is a Business" One of Davis's most memorable concepts is that families should think of themselves as enterprises. She advises clients to separate their “wealth business” from their personal household and to create structures that can survive beyond their lifetime. Takeaway: Families should operate with the same intentionality that successful businesses use. 6. First-Generation Wealth Creates Unique Challenges Davis specializes in serving people who are the first high earners or successful entrepreneurs within their families. She notes that these individuals often face challenges that previous generations never had to navigate, including: Sudden financial complexity Family expectations Tax planning Asset protection Wealth transfer decisions Takeaway: New wealth requires new skills and specialized guidance. 7. There Are Four Forms of Capital Davis identifies four sources of capital: Human Capital – people, family, relationships Intellectual Capital – knowledge and expertise Social Capital – networks and connections Financial Capital – money and assets She argues that most families focus only on financial capital while neglecting the others. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth is broader than money. 8. Asset Protection Is Essential Davis warns that unprotected assets can disappear quickly due to lawsuits, business failures, creditor claims, or debt obligations. She emphasizes the importance of proper ownership structures, legal entities, and asset protection strategies. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth must be protected as carefully as it is created. 9. Different Advisors Serve Different Stages of Wealth When McDonald asks how people should evaluate their current financial advisor, Davis provides a thoughtful perspective: An advisor who helped someone build their first million dollars may not be the right advisor to help them grow to ten million dollars. Increased wealth often brings more complexity and a need for broader expertise. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Financial advisory needs evolve as wealth grows. Notable Quotes On Family and Legacy "Your family is your God-given team, not your liability." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Planning "When you say that you want to build something that's long lasting or you want to create a legacy for children, there's a blueprint that needs to be followed." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Dynamics "Your family even has a balance sheet when it comes to assets and liabilities." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Financial Complexity "My particular mission is the first-generation families who want to make an exponential difference in their families." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Her Approach "We don't begin with investments. We begin by stabilizing and creating a way that you really want to operate your wealth business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Wealth "Your family and your finances are definitely a business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Building "Your family is in the business of growing the value of your last name. Period." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Capital "The four sources of capital are human capital, intellectual capital, social capital, and financial capital." On Asset Protection "The wealth you build can be taken if it's not protected." On Advisor Selection "The advisor that may have gotten you to your first million... may not be the advisor that can get you to ten million." Overall Message Lavashia Davis's core message is that wealth is not simply about earning or investing money—it is about building systems, structures, and family alignment that allow wealth to endure across generations. By treating the family as an asset, activating multiple forms of capital, protecting assets legally, and planning intentionally, families can transform income into legacy. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Asset Protection Is Essential Davis warns that unprotected assets can disappear quickly due to lawsuits, business failures, creditor claims, or debt obligations. She emphasizes the importance of proper ownership structures, legal entities, and asset protection strategies. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth must be protected as carefully as it is created. 9. Different Advisors Serve Different Stages of Wealth When McDonald asks how people should evaluate their current financial advisor, Davis provides a thoughtful perspective: An advisor who helped someone build their first million dollars may not be the right advisor to help them grow to ten million dollars. Increased wealth often brings more complexity and a need for broader expertise. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Financial advisory needs evolve as wealth grows.

On Asset Protection "The wealth you build can be taken if it's not protected." On Advisor Selection "The advisor that may have gotten you to your first million... may not be the advisor that can get you to ten million." Overall Message Lavashia Davis's core message is that wealth is not simply about earning or investing money—it is about building systems, structures, and family alignment that allow wealth to endure across generations. By treating the family as an asset, activating multiple forms of capital, protecting assets legally, and planning intentionally, families can transform income into legacy. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Deloitte's David Mallon on the Culture Debt AI Is Building Most organizations are treating AI like the last big tech rollout. Buy the licenses, run some training, expect results. The data says that approach is backfiring. David Mallon leads the research behind Deloitte's Global Human Capital Trends report, now in its 15th year. In this conversation, he explains why 59% of organizations taking a tech-first approach to AI are 1.6 times more likely to miss the return, and what changes when you redesign the work instead of layering tools on top of it. Brandon and David get into the human side of the shift. Work slop and what it means for developing people when entry-level roles disappear. Culture debt, and the 80% of leaders and workers who suspect their teammates are using AI to look more productive. Decision rights, and why accountability breaks down when nobody can trace a choice back to a person. And the question sitting underneath all of it: who actually owns work. There is a practical throughline here for small and mid-sized companies. You do not need a transformation budget to start. You need to think in capabilities, build friction back in where people need to practice, and say out loud what counts as good work now. About our guest David Mallon is a managing director at Deloitte Consulting LLP and head of research and chief futurist for Human Capital in the US. He has more than 25 years of experience in human capital and has been a contributor to Deloitte's Global Human Capital Trends study since its inception. He leads Insights2Action, Deloitte's Human Capital decision intelligence capability, and is a former head of research for Bersin. He co-hosts the Capital H podcast and speaks widely on organization design, culture, HR strategy, and learning.

Guest: LaVashia Davis, Founder of Ell Wess Advisors (boutique family office and wealth management firm)Host: Rushion McDonaldTopic: Building multigenerational wealth, family wealth planning, asset protection, and creating lasting legacies. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on helping first-generation wealth builders and entrepreneurs understand that wealth creation is about more than investments. Davis explains how families can organize, protect, grow, and transfer wealth across generations by treating their family finances as a structured enterprise rather than simply accumulating money. A central theme is that many successful individuals earn substantial incomes but lack a blueprint for preserving and transferring wealth. Davis advocates for intentional planning, legal structures, family involvement, and asset protection to create lasting legacies. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Requires a Blueprint Davis explains that creating a legacy does not happen automatically. Families need a deliberate plan, legal structures, and defined roles if they want wealth to survive beyond one generation. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Making money and building wealth are not the same. Wealth requires systems and succession planning. 2. Family Should Be Treated as an Asset One of Davis's strongest messages is that family members can play meaningful roles in wealth-building efforts. She argues that when people think about legacy, they often overlook the importance of human relationships and family participation. Wealth-transfer strategies frequently require successors, trustees, managers, and beneficiaries. Many of those roles can be filled by family members. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Family can be a strategic asset when properly organized and aligned. 3. Not Every Family Member Contributes Equally Davis acknowledges that some family members may behave more like liabilities than assets. Using a balance-sheet analogy, she explains that every family includes both contributors and individuals who may create financial burdens. The key is identifying those dynamics without allowing them to derail long-term wealth planning. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Successful family wealth planning requires honest assessment of family dynamics. 4. Wealth Management Is More Than Investments Davis differentiates her firm's approach from traditional investment-focused advisory services. Her firm begins with: Family and wealth governance Legal structures Estate planning Tax planning Business succession planning Preparing future generations to inherit wealth Investments are addressed after these foundational elements are in place. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Investments should support a broader wealth strategy, not drive it. 5. "Your Family Is a Business" One of Davis's most memorable concepts is that families should think of themselves as enterprises. She advises clients to separate their “wealth business” from their personal household and to create structures that can survive beyond their lifetime. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Families should operate with the same intentionality that successful businesses use. 6. First-Generation Wealth Creates Unique Challenges Davis specializes in serving people who are the first high earners or successful entrepreneurs within their families. She notes that these individuals often face challenges that previous generations never had to navigate, including: Sudden financial complexity Family expectations Tax planning Asset protection Wealth transfer decisions [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: New wealth requires new skills and specialized guidance. 7.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed LaVashia Davis. Guest: LaVashia Davis, Founder of Ell Wess Advisors (boutique family office and wealth management firm)Host: Rushion McDonaldTopic: Building multigenerational wealth, family wealth planning, asset protection, and creating lasting legacies. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on helping first-generation wealth builders and entrepreneurs understand that wealth creation is about more than investments. Davis explains how families can organize, protect, grow, and transfer wealth across generations by treating their family finances as a structured enterprise rather than simply accumulating money. A central theme is that many successful individuals earn substantial incomes but lack a blueprint for preserving and transferring wealth. Davis advocates for intentional planning, legal structures, family involvement, and asset protection to create lasting legacies. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Requires a Blueprint Davis explains that creating a legacy does not happen automatically. Families need a deliberate plan, legal structures, and defined roles if they want wealth to survive beyond one generation. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Making money and building wealth are not the same. Wealth requires systems and succession planning. 2. Family Should Be Treated as an Asset One of Davis's strongest messages is that family members can play meaningful roles in wealth-building efforts. She argues that when people think about legacy, they often overlook the importance of human relationships and family participation. Wealth-transfer strategies frequently require successors, trustees, managers, and beneficiaries. Many of those roles can be filled by family members. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Family can be a strategic asset when properly organized and aligned. 3. Not Every Family Member Contributes Equally Davis acknowledges that some family members may behave more like liabilities than assets. Using a balance-sheet analogy, she explains that every family includes both contributors and individuals who may create financial burdens. The key is identifying those dynamics without allowing them to derail long-term wealth planning. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Successful family wealth planning requires honest assessment of family dynamics. 4. Wealth Management Is More Than Investments Davis differentiates her firm's approach from traditional investment-focused advisory services. Her firm begins with: Family and wealth governance Legal structures Estate planning Tax planning Business succession planning Preparing future generations to inherit wealth Investments are addressed after these foundational elements are in place. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Investments should support a broader wealth strategy, not drive it. 5. "Your Family Is a Business" One of Davis's most memorable concepts is that families should think of themselves as enterprises. She advises clients to separate their “wealth business” from their personal household and to create structures that can survive beyond their lifetime. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Families should operate with the same intentionality that successful businesses use. 6. First-Generation Wealth Creates Unique Challenges Davis specializes in serving people who are the first high earners or successful entrepreneurs within their families. She notes that these individuals often face challenges that previous generations never had to navigate, including: Sudden financial complexity Family expectations Tax planning Asset protection Wealth transfer decisions [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: New wealth requires new skills and specialized guidance. 7. There Are Four Forms of Capital Davis identifies four sources of capital: Human Capital – people, family, relationships Intellectual Capital – knowledge and expertise Social Capital – networks and connections Financial Capital – money and assets She argues that most families focus only on financial capital while neglecting the others. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth is broader than money. 8. Asset Protection Is Essential Davis warns that unprotected assets can disappear quickly due to lawsuits, business failures, creditor claims, or debt obligations. She emphasizes the importance of proper ownership structures, legal entities, and asset protection strategies. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth must be protected as carefully as it is created. 9. Different Advisors Serve Different Stages of Wealth When McDonald asks how people should evaluate their current financial advisor, Davis provides a thoughtful perspective: An advisor who helped someone build their first million dollars may not be the right advisor to help them grow to ten million dollars. Increased wealth often brings more complexity and a need for broader expertise. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Financial advisory needs evolve as wealth grows. Notable Quotes On Family and Legacy "Your family is your God-given team, not your liability." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Planning "When you say that you want to build something that's long lasting or you want to create a legacy for children, there's a blueprint that needs to be followed." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Dynamics "Your family even has a balance sheet when it comes to assets and liabilities." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Financial Complexity "My particular mission is the first-generation families who want to make an exponential difference in their families." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Her Approach "We don't begin with investments. We begin by stabilizing and creating a way that you really want to operate your wealth business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Wealth "Your family and your finances are definitely a business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Building "Your family is in the business of growing the value of your last name. Period." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Capital "The four sources of capital are human capital, intellectual capital, social capital, and financial capital." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Asset Protection "The wealth you build can be taken if it's not protected." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Advisor Selection "The advisor that may have gotten you to your first million... may not be the advisor that can get you to ten million." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Overall Message Lavashia Davis's core message is that wealth is not simply about earning or investing money—it is about building systems, structures, and family alignment that allow wealth to endure across generations. By treating the family as an asset, activating multiple forms of capital, protecting assets legally, and planning intentionally, families can transform income into legacy. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Faridah Abdul-Tawwab Brown and Frank Abdul Shaheed introduce a 3rd episode to a new season of The Family Ties, framing the show as a prescription for healing the human family through a covenantal relationship with God, rooted in the African American experience of chattel slavery and the creation of culture from “essence” rather than inherited traditions. They discuss how obedience, spirituals, blues, and jazz expressed humanity and helped shape America, which they describe as the “final conversation” on human establishment and a call back to founding ideals. They contrast human capital guiding material production versus materialism controlling people, and address February 2026 global conflicts, highlighting Palestine/Jerusalem as a focal symbol of justice and sacred human life. They emphasize knowledge, revelation, leadership, charity (including Ramadan), and invite audience engagement via their website and social platforms.00:00 Welcome to Family Ties00:47 Covenant in Hardship03:41 America as Final Test05:33 Defining Family Culture07:17 Creating Culture from Nothing11:31 Essence of Liberation14:58 Music Blues and Jazz Roots16:52 Human Capital vs Materialism21:04 Palestine and Sacred Justice27:00 Knowledge Revelation Leadership29:09 Charity Ramadan and Good Life32:31 Closing and Stay Connected----------------------------------------------------This podcast is about family life as a means to address current problems in American society.

In the second episode of a special On Aon mini-series on the 2026 Human Capital Trends study, Aon's Human Capital leaders discuss why gaining a competitive advantage in an AI-powered future will depend as much on workforce readiness as it does on technology. While many organizations are accelerating AI adoption, lasting value comes from how leaders build the skills, culture and trust needed to put these tools to work. The conversation explores the leadership priorities that will shape the future of work, from developing critical capabilities and fostering adaptability to making better decisions in an increasingly AI-enabled environment. Key Takeaways: AI success depends on workforce readiness and technology. Organizations that invest in skills, leadership and culture alongside AI adoption will be better-positioned to capture long-term value. Workforce readiness is becoming a strategic priority. Leaders who continuously build capabilities and help employees adapt to new ways of working will be better equipped to stay ahead as business needs evolve. Trust, transparency and wellbeing play a critical role in sustaining transformation. Clear communication and strong people practices help organizations build confidence, accelerate adoption and realize the full potential of AI. Experts in this episode: Byron Beebe, CEO of Human Capital, Aon Lisa Patel, Head of Health and Talent, EMEA, Aon John McLaughlin, CCO and Head of Assessment, Talent Solutions, EMEA, Aon Key Resources: 2026 Human Capital Trends Study Key Moments: (01:10) Why organizations need leaders who can combine AI capability with critical thinking to make better decisions, manage risk and capture opportunity. (05:25) The risk of focusing on technology without investing in workforce readiness — and why culture, skills and employee experience remain central to AI adoption. (12:15) How skills-based talent strategies, continuous learning and workforce insights can help leaders build resilience and stay ahead of changing business demands. Soundbites: Byron Beebe: "I do think the more senior leaders need to embrace AI, but I also think we'll have more junior colleagues who really drive a lot of the development in all organizations going forward." Lisa Patel: “One thing I'd say about all of this is that we can't look at any of these modules in isolation. So, if we truly want to unlock the full potential of AI, we need a holistic approach to the whole thing.” John McLaughlin: "You want people to be high on both critical thinking and AI capability. You want them to be able to spot and manage risks while taking advantage of the opportunity in front of them."

Most companies recruit interns to take work off someone's plate. Your Health does the opposite — and it's why several of its current executives, including a Chief Information Officer, first walked in the door as interns. In this episode, Jamie sits down with Heather Bower, Director of Experiential Learning, who has taken the reins of Your Health's internship, mentorship, preceptorship, and apprenticeship programs. Heather shares how a long-standing program is being rebuilt with structure, data, and intention — organized into semester cohorts, anchored by a four-day all-company orientation, and designed so every intern owns a project with genuine stakes.

In the first episode of a special On Aon mini-series on the 2026 Human Capital Trends study, Aon's Human Capital leaders outline a clear leadership challenge: AI is scaling fast, but the value it delivers is determined by how effectively organizations prepare their people to use it. The discussion moves beyond adoption to focus on aligning AI to business priorities, redesigning work and equipping leaders to translate capability into sustained growth. Key Takeaways: AI investment is ahead of workforce readiness, leaving unrealized value. Organizations that stay ahead are closing this gap by prioritizing capability-building alongside deployment. Delivering value from AI requires shifting focus from activity to outcomes. Measuring success through productivity, decision-making and business impact is critical to unlocking return on investment. Advantage comes from redesigning work, not just scaling tools. Embedding AI into critical workflows and aligning incentives, leadership and skills is what enables durable growth. Experts in this episode: Byron Beebe, CEO of Human Capital, Aon Amanda Scott, Head of Talent Solutions, North America, Aon Marinus Van Driel, Partner, Workforce Transformation Advisory, North America, Aon Key Resources: 2026 Human Capital Trends Study Key Moments: (00:45) AI adoption has accelerated across organizations, but workforce readiness is lagging, creating a gap between deployment and impact (04:20) Why moving too quickly on technology without building capability leads to stalled return on investment and slower adoption (13:00) How AI is reshaping the future of work, driving more fluid, skills-based roles and integrated ways of working Soundbites: Byron Beebe: “I really think it's the people using AI to do jobs better or to enhance what they can accomplish for customers of a business. Those are the people that are going to win.” Amanda Scott: “AI is no longer a technology story; it's a people story.” Marinus Van Driel: “What we're seeing is most organizations are scaling their tools, but very few are redesigning their work. So, most of them are in that foundation or that developing stage. And then I think that the question that's emerging from all of this that I think all leaders will have to grapple with in the near future is we can have AI do this work, but should we have AI do this work.”
St. Paul Area Chamber President & CEO B. Kyle brings a unique perspective to her role as a leader for over 1700 Twin Cities companies. A veteran Army officer and mother who worked her way up from an admin to leadership roles in the private sector, her focus is always on servant leadership. In this download, she shares her inspirational life journey with Kathy & Dardy, and also explains why she fired, and subsequently rehired Kathy!Connect with Versique
Lisa Flicker discusses how the latest jobs report underscores a shift from cheap capital to human capital, placing greater emphasis on leadership and the return on people. She explains how higher borrowing costs are elevating talent as a key competitive advantage, while AI is expected to enhance productivity rather than replace strategic roles. The conversation highlights how this shift could reshape business models and drive higher growth expectations.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/ About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
AI, Workplace Culture and Labor Rights: Why human capital risk is financially material This week on The Greener Way, host Michelle Baltazar speaks with Emily DeMasi, regional team lead - North America EOS at Federated Hermes, about why human capital risks, such as workplace culture, harassment and violence, labour rights, and supply chain conditions, are financially material for investors through impacts on productivity, reputation, and long-term returns.DeMasi explains how stewardship engagement assesses human capital using employee surveys, whistleblower mechanisms, and core disclosure metrics such as workforce size (including gig and contract workers), turnover, demographics, and total workforce cost.They discuss AI's double-edged impact, from efficiencies and training needs to job displacement anxiety and potential worker surveillance.00:39 Why human capital matters02:45 Workplace harassment as material risk04:29 Do employee surveys work?05:50 Investor engagement metrics07:55 AI workforce disruption11:13 Case studies13:43 Best practice supply chain frameworks16:18 Why stewardship is crucial17:42 Looking ahead on AI and governanceWe record on Gadigal land and we pay our respects to the traditional custodians of country and elders past and present.https://www.fssustainability.com.au/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

In this episode, Anderson Williams talks with Cynthia Hiskes, Head of the Human Capital Center of Excellence at Shore Capital Partners. Cynthia brings deep experience building and scaling HR functions across companies of every size, and she shares why aligning your HR investment to the stage and scale of your business is one of the most important decisions a founder or CEO can make. They discuss what human capital looks like in microcap and highly acquisitive companies, why HR belongs at the strategy table from day one, and how the Center of Excellence facilitates learning across the portfolio so leaders don't have to figure it out alone. Cynthia also walks through how to think about talent assessment, organizational design, and culture during rapid growth and acquisition integration, and why the metrics that matter at exit need to be built into the planting phase.Key Takeaways:Match your HR investment to your stage because over-engineered systems early on waste resources, while under-investing later puts growth at riskBring HR in early as a strategic partner, not a downstream handoff, because the best integration and growth decisions happen when human capital is part of the original conversationTreat human capital as a value multiplier, not a cost center, especially in microcap businesses where every key role disproportionately drives the outcomeBuild the metrics that tell your exit story (turnover, engagement, time to fill, wage sustainability) during the planting and growing phases, not at the endChapters:00:00 – Introduction01:31 – Stage-Relevant HR06:36 – Org Design and Acquisitions11:37 – HR as a Strategic Partner18:14 – Talent and the Exit Story26:02 – HR MisconceptionsListen to our podcasts at:https://www.shorecp.university/podcastsYou'll also find other Bigger.

Women make up nearly half the workforce, and somehow, their health is still being treated like a line item someone might cut. Make it make sense! I've been wanting to do this episode for a while, and I'm not going to pretend I made it through without getting in my feelings at least once. I sat down with Kembre Roberts and Kevin Fyock from Aon to get into why women's health keeps getting deprioritized, what it's costing orgs as a result, and what it looks like when employers finally get this right. Just having a fertility benefit and calling it a day isn't gonna cut it anymore! --- 00:00:00 - Intro 00:02:30 - Why Employers Should Care About Women's Health 00:12:45 - How Women's Health Directly Influences Financial Security 00:19:55 - The Data You Need to Help Execs Understand Women's Health Data 00:27:44 - Being Proactive About Women's Health and Financial Wellness Before a Crisis Happens 00:35:26 - What Orgs Keep Getting Wrong About Women's Health, and What a Better Decision Looks Like Aon's Human Capital capabilities help organizations make confident workforce decisions by connecting advisory, insights and data across health benefits, talent and retirement.

How can economic science help you decide which college to attend, or how many children to have, or even who to marry? Pablo A. Peña is an associate instructional professor of economics at the University of Chicago and the author of Human Capital for Humans: An Accessible Introduction to the Economic Science of People. In the book, he applies economist Gary Becker's human capital theory to everyday things like parenting, housework, marriage, and aging. Pablo and Greg discuss why human capital has long been an overlooked field in economics, how it shows up in household production, parenting tradeoffs between time and money, fertility's quantity vs. quality tradeoff, and how AI could be shifting valuable human capital skills toward critical thinking, creativity, and adaptability. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: Firms, households and human capital 25:43: Households are like little firms, but they don't produce stuff that they sell in the market. They produce experiences that they themselves consume. So if you think about it, it's very complicated to have all the members of a family sitting at the same time, right, to have a meal that must be nicely served at that specific point, maybe listening to nice music, maybe it's complicated. The efficient thing to do will be everybody fend for themselves in whatever you can, whenever you can. But no, we want that 'cause it's the experience that we produce. Now you need a CEO and a COO and whatever in a household because you want these things to happen. Somebody has to organize the production processes, production of experiences. Human capital helps in that process. So the more human capital a person or multiple people in a household have, the better that production process can occur, the more productive they can be. Human capital vs. other forms of capital 10:08: Human capital can be developed, its formation responds to incentives, it appreciates, and so on. And because of its asymmetries with other forms of capital, we typically think there may be a problem of underinvestment. That is, for instance, a very consequential difference when we think human capital versus other forms of capital. Why investing in yourself is fundamentally different 10:48: If I go to the bank and I say, "Hey, I want to get more skills. I want to learn how to do this or that, and I'm going to leave you my brain as collateral, or you can possess it." Obviously, that's not something that can happen. So that means there's an asymmetry, and you and I at this stage upon lives, and I assume we're not that different in terms of age, but when we are, say, late teens or maybe twenties, we may have had that idea if I only could get the money to invest itself.

For decades, Americans were promised that a college degree guaranteed a secure spot in the middle class. But instead of entering corporate management, many graduates are finding themselves trapped in low-paying service roles with crippling debt. Is this widening gap between expectations and financial realities fundamentally reshaping the modern American workforce? New York Times reporter Noam Scheiber joins the podcast to unpack the core arguments of his new book “Mutiny: The Rise and Revolt of the College-Educated Working Class” about this labor shift. He argues that the psychological injury of these broken promises is sparking a unique wave of workplace activism. The systemic failure of the college wage premium poses urgent questions for the future of American capitalism. If millions of highly educated citizens feel cheated by the system, the resulting political and economic destabilization could be severe.

Buy tickets for the live Conversations with Tyler recording with Craig Newmark at 92NY! Tyler calls Paul Gillingham's new book, Mexico: A 500-Year History, the single best introduction to the country's past—and one of the best nonfiction books of 2026. Paul brings both an outsider's eye and ground-level knowledge to Mexican history, having grown up in Cork — a place he'd argue gave him an instinctive feel for fierce local autonomy and land hunger —earning his doctorate on the Mexican Revolution under Alan Knight at Oxford, and doing his fieldwork in the pueblos of Guerrero. He and Tyler range across five centuries of Mexican history, from why Mexico held together after independence when every other post-colonial superstate collapsed, to why Yucatán is now one of the safest places on earth, what two leaders from Oaxaca tell us about Mexican politics, how Mexico avoided the military coups that plagued the rest of Latin America, what Cárdenas's land reform actually achieved versus what it promised, whether the ejido system held Mexico back, why Mexico worried too much about land and not enough about human capital, how Mexico's fertility rate fell below America's, why Guerrero has been violent for two centuries, why the new judicial reforms are a disaster, where to find the best food in Mexico and Manhattan, what a cache of illicit Mexican silver sitting on a ship in the English Channel has to do with his next book, and more.
