Send us a textScott Heimendinger is an engineer and inventor whose career spans business intelligence at Microsoft and IBM, to cutting-edge food-tech innovation. Early in his career he served as a program manager at Microsoft, then pivoted into culinary science, co-founding the pioneering sous-vide company Sansaire, which raised over $823 K via Kickstarter to make sous-vide accessible to home cooks.He then moved into roles of increasing technical depth: at Modernist Cuisine he developed robotics, motion-control systems, microscopy, visual engineering and more; at Anova he led the development of the Anova Precision Oven — a home-focused combi-oven blending steam, air-flow and sensors. Today, with Seattle Ultrasonics, he's tackling the humble chef's knife: by embedding ultrasonic vibrations (over 40,000 Hz) and rigorous testing (including a robot-arm slicing experiment producing 100,000 data points) he's redefining what it means to “cut better” in the kitchen.For this episode we'll dive into Scott's journey bridging engineering and food, the technical story behind the ultrasonic knife (including prototyping, testing, failures and design iterations), and how a leader like him shepherds innovation from concept through to product launch. For engineers interested in product development, instrumentation, design-for-manufacturing and the crossover into consumer goods — this is one you won't want to miss.LINKS:Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottheimendinger/Guest website: https://seattleultrasonics.com/ Aaron Moncur, hostAbout Being An Engineer The Being An Engineer podcast is a repository for industry knowledge and a tool through which engineers learn about and connect with relevant companies, technologies, people resources, and opportunities.

In this episode, Guy talked with Peter Russell, an author, guide, and meditation teacher. He discussed his deep-seated interest in consciousness and the ways in which we can achieve a natural state of contentment. He emphasized the importance of letting go of societal-induced discontent and our attachments to material things. The conversation navigated through topics such as the ego, our emotional responses, and how simple mindfulness practices can transform our perspectives and lives. Peter also explained his motivations and findings in his latest book, 'Letting Go of Nothing,' and gave insights into his daily routines and thoughts on the rapidly changing world. About Peter: Peter Russell is on the faculty of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, a fellow of The World Business Academy and The Findhorn Foundation, and an Honorary Member of The Club of Budapest. At Cambridge University (UK), he studied mathematics and theoretical physics. Then, as he became increasingly fascinated by the mysteries of the human mind, he changed to experimental psychology. Pursuing this interest, he traveled to India to study meditation and eastern philosophy, and on his return took up the first research post ever offered in Britain on the psychology of meditation. He also has a postgraduate degree in computer science, and conducted some of the early work on 3-dimensional displays, presaging by some twenty years the advent of virtual reality. In the 1970s, he was one of the first people to introduce human potential seminars into the corporate field, and for twenty years ran programs for senior management on creativity, stress management, personal development, and sustainable development. Clients have included IBM, Apple, Digital, American Express, Barclays Bank, Swedish Telecom, ICI, Shell Oil and British Petroleum. In 1982 he coined the term "Global Brain" with his 1980s bestseller of the same name in which he predicted the Internet and the impact it would have. His latest book, "Letting Go of Nothing: Relax Your Mind and Discover the Wonder of Your True Nature" was published on August 8, 2021. His other books include: The TM Technique, The Upanishads, The Brain Book, The Creative Manager, The Consciousness Revolution, Waking Up in Time, The Global Brain / The Awakening Earth, Seeds of Awakening, and From Science to God.

Today, on Notable Leaders' Radio, I dive into exploring a simple but often overlooked question: Have you set yourself up for success, or expecting yourself to "just make it happen"? This conversation isn't about fixing what you've done in the past or pushing harder in the year ahead. It's about approaching your goals with greater clarity, compassion, and intention—so what matters most has a real chance to take root. In this episode, I reflect on: What it truly means to set yourself up for success Not through pressure or perfection, but through thoughtful preparation that builds confidence and capacity over time. How to reverse-engineer what you want to experience, create, or achieve Looking at daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly rhythms that support growth in a way that's sustainable and realistic. Why warming up matters, on and off the field Using a pole-vaulting metaphor to explore how gradual expansion and attention to form prepare you for new levels of leadership and impact. The value of pausing to distinguish desire from obligation Gently asking whether a goal truly reflects what you want now—or whether it's something you've been carrying out of habit or expectation. At its heart, this episode is an invitation to replace self-demand with self-leadership, and to remember that professional success and personal fulfillment are not competing goals. They are meant to grow together. If you're looking to begin 2026 with greater clarity, alignment, and momentum, so better prepare yourself for celebrations at the end of the year, rather than disappointment with a list of things you did not accomplish. This podcast episode is for you.

This week, Travis sits down with Lorraine Marchand, acclaimed consultant, author, educator, and innovation leader. Lorraine has spent her career shaping how organizations—from startups to Fortune 500 companies—approach problem solving and sustained growth. She's co-author of No Fear, No Failure: Five Principles for Sustaining Growth Through Innovation and brings decades of experience from roles at Bristol Myers Squibb, IBM, and on advisory boards for Johnson & Johnson and Hewlett Packard. On this episode we talk about: How Lorraine's father sparked her curiosity and entrepreneurial spirit at age 12 The invention of the “Sugar Cube” and her first lesson in innovation and royalties The difference between convergent and divergent problem solving Why fear of failure cripples innovation—and how to overcome it How Lorraine's new book helps leaders build a culture that encourages experimentation Top 3 Takeaways Curiosity and problem solving can be taught early—and they're the foundation of building wealth and innovation. The biggest barrier to innovation isn't lack of ideas; it's fear of failure and organizational rigidity. Success comes from reframing failure as learning, taking consistent risks, and staying commercially focused on solving real customer problems. Notable Quotes “Parents have a powerful role in cultivating curiosity and developing future innovators—don't take it lightly.” “The only problems worth solving are the ones customers will pay you to fix.” “Fear of failure stops innovation before it starts. Reframe it as learning, and you'll open up entirely new possibilities.” Connect with Lorraine Marchand: LinkedIn: Lorraine Marchand on LinkedIn Website: lorrainemarchand.com Book: No Fear, No Failure – available for preorder on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Bookshop.org  Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the all-in-one sales & marketing platform built for agencies, by an agency. Capture leads, nurture them, and close more deals—all from one powerful platform. Get an extended free trial at gohighlevel.com/travis Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode names and explains "operational blindness": the invisible visibility gap in sterile processing (SPD) that disconnects internal metrics from organizational outcomes, creating cost overruns, OR delays, and hidden quality risk. Using the IBM parallel, the host shows how hospitals must fix upstream systems—not just people—by building new metrics, feedback loops, and an operating system (Sterile by Design) to restore transparency and unlock perioperative performance.

Automotive manufacturing leaders have no shortage of data, but only those who turn it into action are winning, and AI is the accelerator.In this milestone episode, Jan Griffiths is joined by Sanjay Brahmawar, CEO of QAD, and Dr. Bryan Reimer, MIT Research Scientist and author of How to Make AI Useful, for a grounded conversation about how AI is creating real advantage in automotive manufacturing.The challenge facing automotive manufacturing leaders is not visibility. Leaders know where problems exist. The issue is that action often stalls between insight and execution. Dashboards explain what happened. They do not decide what happens next.Sanjay and Bryan draw a clear distinction between systems of record and systems of action. Systems of record observe. Systems of action decide, execute, and learn. Agentic AI belongs in the second category. It creates value when it removes friction from work, accelerates routine decisions, and gives people better context at the moment action is required.Frontline teams in automotive manufacturing do not resist AI. They adopt it when it respects their expertise and helps them do their jobs better. Adoption follows usefulness, not mandates. When AI amplifies human judgment instead of supervising it, execution speed improves and results follow.This episode challenges automotive manufacturing leaders to stop treating AI as a reporting layer and start using it as an execution engine. The organizations pulling ahead are not waiting for perfect conditions. They are starting small, learning fast, and letting action build confidence.Themes Discussed in this episode:Why data visibility alone does not drive performance in automotive manufacturingSystems of record vs systems of actionHow AI removes friction from automotive manufacturing operationsFrontline-first AI adoption in plantsAgentic AI as an execution multiplierLeadership ownership of decisionsBuilding momentum with 60 to 90-day winsFeatured Guests: Name: Sanjay BrahmawarTitle: CEO of QAD About: Sanjay Brahmawar is the CEO of QAD, a cloud software company delivering cloud-based solutions for manufacturers and global supply chains.

The crew kicks things off with a wild entertainment scoop: an Ozzy Osbourne biopic is finally in the works! Who should play the Prince of Darkness? Johnny Depp? Colin Farrell? Or Skin's favorite curveball—Bill Hader? Then, the conversation takes a relatable turn with Skin's epic rant about parking wars at the station. From sticker vigilantes to IBM newcomers unknowingly invading VIP spots, this segment is pure comedy gold.But beneath the laughs, the gang explores a deeper theme: life's endless little battles. Whether it's fighting for a parking space, wrangling with building management, or convincing a teenager to leave Fortnite behind, the question remains—do we still have the energy to fight? Skin's reflection on picking your battles hits home for anyone juggling work, family, and sanity.

La transformation du travail liée à l'intelligence artificielle pose des questions très concrètes aux entreprises : quelles compétences anticiper, comment accompagner les managers, et comment maintenir la confiance des collaborateurs dans un contexte d'accélération permanente, au cœur de la transformation du management.Maryjo Charbonnier est Chief Human Resource Officer de Kyndryl, entreprise mondiale de services technologiques issue d'un spin-off d'IBM, présente dans plus de 60 pays. Elle est également membre du board du SHRM, le plus grand regroupement mondial de professionnels des ressources humaines. À ce titre, elle intervient au plus haut niveau des réflexions internationales sur le leadership, le management et l'avenir du travail.Dans cet épisode de L'Entreprise de demain, Maryjo partage la manière dont elle pilote, à grande échelle, la transformation du management dans une organisation directement impactée par l'IA. Elle décrit les choix structurants opérés chez Kyndryl pour anticiper l'évolution des métiers, transformer les pratiques managériales et organiser le développement des compétences dans la durée.L'épisode apporte des repères concrets sur la façon dont Kyndryl articule intelligence artificielle, management et engagement des collaborateurs, en inscrivant la transformation du management dans des dispositifs déjà en place et utilisés à grande échelle. Maryjo détaille un cadre clair mobilisé par les équipes RH et les managers pour anticiper les impacts de l'IA sur les tâches et les emplois, disposer d'un inventaire précis des compétences, organiser le re-skilling et faciliter le re-déploiement des collaborateurs avant que les ruptures n'interviennent.La discussion met en lumière le rôle central du management dans cette transformation. Les managers sont explicitement responsabilisés sur quatre axes communs à l'ensemble de l'organisation : fixer un cap ambitieux, développer les compétences et les talents, construire des équipes engagées et inclusives, et incarner des pratiques managériales cohérentes. Maryjo explique comment ces attentes sont intégrées aux objectifs managériaux et soutenues par des outils concrets de feedback, de développement du leadership et de reconnaissance.L'épisode aborde également la manière dont Kyndryl structure une culture du feedback continue et accessible, conçue comme un levier de progression individuelle et collective. La reconnaissance y est pensée comme un outil de management à part entière, intégré aux processus quotidiens, et non comme un dispositif périphérique.Enfin, Maryjo partage une lecture pragmatique du métier de manager et du rôle de la fonction RH dans un contexte global et multiculturel. Elle explique comment les données d'engagement sont utilisées pour orienter les priorités, identifier les zones de progrès et ajuster les pratiques managériales, notamment sur la simplification des processus de travail afin de libérer du temps pour l'apprentissage, le développement des compétences et la relation client.

The latest guest on The PR Week podcast is one of the best-known in-house communications executives in the industry: Jonathan Adashek, senior vice president of marketing and communications at IBM. He talks about how IBM's leadership set a clear course for the company in areas such as AI and technology at large and why former CEO Louis Gerstner has been rightly credited with “saving” the company. Plus, the biggest marketing and communications news of the week, including people moves at Carnival Cruise Line, Avoq and Merck; an intriguing midsize agency acquisition and Bombas' reaction to being made a joke at the Golden Globes.

In this episode Dr. Jake Tayler Jacobs recounts Lou Gerstner's 1993 turnaround of IBM—how he saved the company not by firing people but by changing the underlying beliefs, measurements, and systems that trapped talent. He draws direct parallels to healthcare, especially sterile processing, arguing that invisible beliefs and broken systems—not staff—are often the root cause of failure and wasted resources. The episode introduces the concept of operational blindness, previews the book "Operational Blindness," and points listeners to free resources and assessments to identify and fix systemic problems.

For decades, the West has outsourced its own material production to other countries, in favor of lower costs and short-term returns over more expensive, long-duration investments like mining and manufacturing. But while this has seemed like a success on the surface, it has left us with a society based on consumption, unable to produce what we need on our own. What are the deeper costs of this long-term offshoring – including for our geopolitical, climate, and technological ambitions? In this conversation, Nate is joined by materials expert and investor Craig Tindale, who explores the profound vulnerabilities facing Western economies by what he calls "Industrialization 2.0." Craig argues that decades of central banking policies favoring consumption and short-term returns have led the West to offshore virtually all materials production and processing to China – limiting the West's ability to defend itself, as well as rebuild industrial capacity to address the growing technological needs of climate and AI. Tindale also introduces his "four clocks" framework, which describes how corporate quarterly cycles, 10-20 year climate urgency, immediate defense needs, and continuous consumption addiction  are all ticking at different speeds and pulling society in incompatible directions. Furthermore, he posits that Silicon Valley's "unspoken bet" is on human obsolescence, with capital flowing to robot owners rather than human workers. How do all of these pieces – monetary policy, critical materials, climate action, geopolitical risk, and technological displacement – fit together to create a perfect storm for humanity's future? Why might the only path to a circular economy be "through the valley of death" – forced by necessity rather than choice? And what types of practical investments and technological innovations are needed to make our societies more resilient in the face of impending geopolitical and economic turbulence? (Conversation recorded on December 10th, 2025)   About Craig Tindale: Craig Tindale is a private investor who has spent nearly four decades working in software development, business strategy, and infrastructure planning, including in leadership positions at Telstra, Oracle, and IBM. Additionally, he has direct experience working in east-to-west supply chains, including as the CEO and Asia Regional Director for DataDirect Technologies.  He's now pivoted to investing in groundbreaking ideas such as drone reforestation through Air Seed Technologies, and uses his knowledge of Chinese industrial strategy and Western tech demand to identify the choke points in Critical Metals markets. Most recently he released the white paper, Critical Materials: A Strategic Analysis, which offers a systems synthesis on how the race for rare earths and the return of material constraints is shaping geopolitical relationships.    Show Notes and More Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

In this powerful episode, Laura is joined by Dr. Keisha Bentley-Edwards, Associate Professor at Duke University's School of Medicine and Co-Director of Duke CTSI Center for Research, Community Engagement, Social Impact and Trust (CREST Center), for a timely conversation on rethinking resilience. Inspired by Dr. Bentley-Edwards' article "I Am Not (Your) Superwoman, Black Girl Magic, or Beautiful Struggle: Rethinking the Resilience of Black Women and Girls," this episode explores the cultural narratives that celebrate Black women's strength while often ignoring the profound physical, emotional, and psychological costs of relentless resilience. Together, Laura and Keisha unpack the tensions between pride in endurance, cultural expectations like the "Strong Black Woman," and the growing body of research showing how these narratives contribute to health inequities across the lifespan. Dr. Bentley-Edwards offers insight into how expectations of resilience often begin in childhood for Black girls, shaping adult experiences of stress, coping, and wellbeing. The conversation moves beyond critique toward possibility—imagining models of resilience that center sustainable wellness, community care, and structural accountability, rather than individual endurance alone. Dr. Bentley-Edwards also reflects on what Black women can do in service of themselves and Black girls, and what we must collectively demand from systems, institutions, and leaders. Anchored in Season 8's theme, "Leaning Into Joy," this episode invites listeners to consider how joy, rest, alignment, and community are not indulgences, but essential counterweights to harmful expectations of strength.   About Dr. Keisha Dr. Keisha Bentley-Edwards is an Associate Professor at Duke University's School of Medicine and Co-Director of Duke CTSI Center for Research, Community Engagement, Social Impact and Trust (CREST Center). She is also the Associate Director of Research for the Samuel DuBois Cook Center on Social Equity. Dr. Bentley-Edwards' research focuses on how racism, gender, and culture influence development throughout the lifespan, especially for African Americans. She is the Chair of the Society for Research in Child Development's Black Caucus. Her research emphasizes cultural strengths, including religiosity, and eliminating structural barriers to support healthy development in communities, families, and students, and in birth outcomes. Her research has been supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, IBM, and the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Bentley-Edwards shares her expertise on the causes and consequences of structural racism and bias on health, education and social outcomes with families, schools, policymakers, practitioners, and the media.   Connect with Dr. Keisha Website: https://www.drbentleyedwards.com/ LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/kbentleyedwards    BWL Resources: Now enrolling for both the January  sessions of the Early Career and Mid-Career programs.  Learn more at https://blackwomanleading.com/programs-overview/ Full podcast episodes are now on Youtube.  Subscribe to the BWL channel today!

Logan Harris is CEO, President, and Founder of Spotter Global—a company specializing in compact radar and drone detection technologies. Spotter Global imagines, designs, manufactures, and coordinates the software development of compact surveillance radars, Remote Drone ID, NetworkedIO command and control, and its Integrated Management Center. The company was originally founded to meet the needs of U.S. Special Forces, who required a very small, wide-area radar to protect small units conducting Village Stability Operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. From that need, the first Compact Surveillance Radar—the M600—was developed to protect warfighters operating in austere environments. In 2013, the attack on the Metcalf substation in California highlighted the need to detect threats far beyond the fence line. In response, Spotter introduced its first Compact Security Radar, the C40. Since then, the company has expanded its commercial off-the-shelf offerings to include 17 radar models covering areas from one acre to more than 380 acres, serving markets well beyond critical infrastructure—and far beyond North America. Logan is widely recognized as the inventor of the compact surveillance radar category. With deep expertise in RF engineering and digital signal processing, he launched SpotterRF in 2009 to help prevent harm to critical infrastructure and protect warfighters. Previously, Logan served as CTO at Wavetronix and as CTO and co-founder of ImSAR, the creator of NanoSAR. His engineering background also includes roles at IBM, TRW, Sensar Larson Davis, and Vantage. Logan holds both Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Electrical Engineering from Brigham Young University. Known for his innovation and leadership, he has positioned Spotter Global as a trusted radar provider across government and commercial sectors. In this episode of the Drone Radio Show, Logan talks about the growing reality of drone threats, how Spotter Global is using advanced detection and Remote ID technology to protect critical infrastructure and large public events, and what the future of airspace security looks like as agencies, regulations, and technologies continue to evolve.
