Podcasts about IKEA

This week on Tuddle & Kristin, things get weird fast. The duo react to a wild story about a guy who had a WW2 artillery shell removed from his anus (yeah… that escalated quickly). Then it's on to a Dave & Buster's Valentine's Day diamond ring promotion that has people questioning romance in 2026. Plus, a completely separate—and equally unhinged—discussion about IKEA's 20-inch hot dog.Strap in. This episode has chaos, questionable decisions, and just enough love in the air.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We covered a lot of ground in this conversation, which is another way of saying we wandered bravely from topic to topic with the confidence of people who believe curiosity is a form of planning. It started with musical dreams, which immediately ran into taxes, because nothing crushes artistic ambition faster than discovering the government would also like a solo. From there we examined the mysterious phenomenon of celebrity wealth, which turns out to be mostly an illusion created by sunglasses, confidence, and someone else paying for lunch. Naturally this led us to government conspiracies, because once you realize famous people don’t have as much money as you think, it’s only a short hop to assuming someone is hiding something. We discussed survival skills for the collapse of society, a scenario everyone is very confident about despite having trouble assembling IKEA furniture. The Doomsday Clock came up, which is reassuring because it’s good to know the end of the world is being managed by people who own a clock. We also talked about zombies, because every serious discussion eventually circles back to zombies, the one apocalypse we’ve fully rehearsed thanks to television. Along the way we touched on personal health journeys, which mostly involve learning what foods now hate us, and food preferences, which are deeply emotional and should never be questioned. Black pepper emerged as a cultural force, gold mining as an economic mystery, and hibernation as an underutilized lifestyle choice for anyone tired of the news. In the end, the conversation proved that modern life is complicated, confusing, and possibly ending soon, but at least we can laugh about it while seasoning our food aggressively and considering a long nap.

Are your meetings indistinguishable from 1940s wartime sabotage tactics? You're not alone. In this episode, Rebecca Hinds, author of Your Best Meeting Ever: Seven Principles for Designing Meetings That Get Things Done, reveals why corporate meetings have become the single most dysfunctional practice in modern organizations—and how to fix them. Brandon and Rebecca explore a radical idea: what if we treated meetings like products, applying the same design principles that make great products great? From "meeting doomsday" (a complete calendar reset) to Amazon's study hall approach, Rebecca shares actionable strategies that organizations like Slack, Dropbox, and Shopify have used to declare war on meeting bloat. You'll discover why double-booking has become a toxic badge of honor, how the visibility bias makes us associate presence with productivity, and why crowdsourcing your agenda using the "Dory method" can transform boring monologues into engaging collaboration. Rebecca also tackles the AI paradox—why more meeting bots might be making your meetings worse, not better—and shares the "iron rule" that every leader needs to embrace. If you've ever walked out of a meeting wondering what you just accomplished (or why you were even there), this episode is your blueprint for change. Don't miss Rebecca's insights on why meetings are the most important—and least optimized—product in your organization.

Shubhi Sachan is a multi-disciplinary designer and the founder of Material Library of India. The New Delhi-based library was the first of its type in India and acts as a research and design consultancy committed to unlocking the potential of industrial and agricultural waste – of which India, a country with a population of over 1.4 billion people, has plenty.Over the years, MLI has worked with brands and organisations such as IKEA and the British Council, as well as presenting work and ideas across the globe, including at last year's Material Matters London where it reimagined cotton as a climate-adaptive, culturally rich material.In this episode Shubhi discusses: setting up MLI in 2017; why she decided to tackle waste in the first instance; India's relationship with textiles and ‘waste colonialism'; the importance of the ‘rebirth' of industrial materials; how natural materials can look after themselves; her recent project on cotton and why the crop needs to be re-thought; opening a thrift store where textiles are the currency; refusing to reject capitalism; curating seeds for IKEA; creating streetwear from rejected condoms; studying in England; becoming a successful surface designer; and why her family have questioned her career choices.Support the show

U petoj epizodi, Grafa je konačno prešao igricu. Zaboravite na dizajniranje logoa za Đokovića ili bureka - svet je dobio "rezač za olovke kod urologa" (prostata verzija). Da li je ovo zaista najvažniji izum još od vremena Nikole Tesle ili samo još jedna u nizu Grafinih nerealizovanih (i blago uznemirujućih) ideja?

The salient focus of our discourse today revolves around the substantial evolution of sustainability initiatives within the furniture industry, exemplified by Ikea's expansive buyback and resale program, which now encompasses over 2,800 items. This strategic maneuver not only signifies a commitment to environmental stewardship but also illustrates a burgeoning trend where resale and circular economy principles are increasingly integrated into the operational frameworks of major industry players. As we delve into the current landscape, we will also address the prevailing uncertainties in global trade, particularly the ramifications of fluctuating tariffs that continue to disrupt sourcing strategies and pricing models. Concurrently, we will explore the perspectives of construction and design professionals, who exhibit a cautiously optimistic outlook amidst labor shortages and escalating material costs. Ultimately, this episode seeks to elucidate the intricate interplay between sustainability efforts and the unpredictable nature of trade policies, as we navigate the complexities of the furniture industry in 2026. The examination of the furniture industry as we embark upon 2026 unveils a landscape rich with both opportunity and uncertainty, characterized by significant advancements in sustainability practices and a complex international trade environment. A salient feature of this discussion is the notable expansion of Ikea's buyback and resale program, which has now incorporated an additional 700 products, culminating in a total of over 2,800 items eligible for return and resale. This strategic initiative epitomizes a broader trend within the industry, where sustainability is not merely an ideal but is increasingly becoming an operational imperative. Ikea's commitment to reducing waste and promoting the longevity of its products reflects a profound shift in consumer expectations and corporate responsibility. As the dialogue progresses, it becomes evident that such resale strategies are being integrated into the core operational frameworks of major retailers, indicating that a paradigm shift towards a circular economy is underway. Furthermore, the conversation transitions to the international sourcing challenges that remain a significant concern for the industry, particularly as highlighted by the recent Heim textile show in Frankfurt. The atmosphere at the event was permeated by discussions of tariffs and trade pressures, overshadowing any sense of optimism regarding future trends. Suppliers expressed apprehension regarding potential tariff repercussions, particularly in light of the geopolitical tensions that have characterized recent years. The overarching sentiment among industry participants is one of caution; businesses are compelled to remain agile and responsive to the rapidly changing trade policies that could impact their sourcing strategies. This sense of uncertainty necessitates a recalibration of how companies approach market entry and product pricing, as stakeholders navigate the complexities of a volatile global trade environment. As the episode culminates, attention shifts to the outlook of construction and design professionals, who exhibit a tempered optimism as they anticipate the challenges and opportunities that 2026 may present. Recent data from Houzz indicates that while many professionals harbor a positive outlook for the year ahead, they remain acutely aware of the labor shortages and rising material costs that could impede progress. This duality of hope and realism underscores the intricate balancing act that industry stakeholders must perform—investing in growth while remaining cognizant of the economic signals that may herald challenges. Collectively, these insights delineate a nuanced portrait of the furniture industry, illustrating a sector in transition, where the integration of sustainability practices and the navigation of trade uncertainties will be pivotal in shaping its future...

Craig Carton and Big Mac deliver a wildly unhinged WFAN segment that only The Carton Show can produce. It starts with a caller celebrating the Yankees' Cody Bellinger signing before veering into youth baseball nostalgia, the revival of New York's Borough Cup, and a deep dive into Mets fans' mixed emotions after losing Pete Alonso and trading for Luis Robert Jr. The madness escalates with peacocks roaming New Jersey backyards, haunted Lake Ronkonkoma lore, American history arguments, Ikea horse meatball debates, and an all-time discussion on whether cheating actually matters in baseball.

In this new episode of the Positive Leadership Podcast, I'm delighted to welcome Katarina Berg, a leader who has redefined HR and culture for the digital age. As the long-time CHRO of Spotify and now Chief People Officer at On, Katarina has been at the helm of some of the most intense “hyper-growth” stories in tech history. But her journey started long before boardrooms—growing up sailing the world and being homeschooled on the ocean taught her a vital lesson: You cannot control the waves, you can only adjust your sails. In our conversation, we dive deep into her philosophy of “Controlled Chaos,” a bold approach that challenges the traditional command-and-control models of corporate leadership. Together, we explore a fascinating reality: What happens when you trust your employees enough to let them work from anywhere—not just as a perk, but as a business strategy? Katarina reveals how the “Work From Anywhere” policy at Spotify unlocked talent globally, and how she is now applying similar principles of trust and speed at On. But the real revolution isn't just about policy. It is about connection. We discuss her famous “Walk and Talks”—solving complex business problems on mountain trails rather than in meeting rooms—and how staying close to nature makes us better decision-makers. In this episode, we cover: The Origin Story: How a childhood spent navigating high seas shaped her resilience and adaptability as a leader. The Philosophy: Why “Controlled Chaos” is essential for innovation, and why rigidity is the enemy of growth. The Strategy: How to implement a “Work From Anywhere” culture that actually works (and isn't just hybrid theater). The Method: The power of the “Walk and Talk” to break down barriers and foster deep human connection. The Future: Her advice for the leaders of 2030: “Dare to be bold, lead with your heart, and always lift others as you rise.” Katarina reminds us that Positive Leadership is not about choosing between high performance and human care. It is about realizing that you cannot have one without the other. I hope you'll enjoy this energizing conversation with Katarina Berg. 

Pure Carton Show chaos. Craig Carton and Chris “C-Mac” McMonigle go completely off the rails as the John Harbaugh era officially begins for the New York Giants.

Avec les boulettes Ikea, on parle quand même d'un des plats les plus universels au monde. Déjà, pour positionner le sujet, trois chiffres : 2 millions, le nombre d'assiettes de boulettes servies en France l'an dernier. Vous rajoutez les plus de 400.000 sachets de boulettes surgelées qui sont vendues dans la petite épicerie suédoise qui est derrière les caisses, vous arrivez à 44 millions de boulettes qui sont avalées tous les ans, uniquement en France. A l'échelle du monde, c'est plus d'un milliard de boulettes. Et devinez quoi, c'est davantage que le Big Mac de McDo, dont il ne se vendrait qu'environ 900 millions d'unités par an selon les estimations...

Silicon Bites Ep284 | 2026-01-13 | Power has been restored in Berlin after the longest blackout since World War Two. An extraordinary coincidence, or the dress rehearsal for something far more threatening? In this episode we try to imagine the inconceivable – a moment when Russia, in the depths of hubris, desperation and resentment – launches a full-scale hybrid war on the continent, unleashing Europe's Hybrid Pearl Harbor. Was the attack on Berlin a dress rehearsal?Berlin went dark — tens of thousands of homes, freezing temperatures, and a city reminded that modern life depends on a handful of chokepoints – light, heat, food, transportation. Authorities say it was deliberate. The question is bigger than who lit the match – because those who are paying attention, will conclude that Russia was directly or indirectly behind it: but what does this tell us about Europe's exposure to hybrid war — especially as Russia's conventional war in Ukraine grinds, and Moscow looks for cheaper ways to impose pain, and to deter Europe from defending Ukraine, and even from defending themselves?----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced. These are some of the greatest and the most reliable pickups possible to be on the frontline in Ukraine. Who will receive the vehicles?https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtain- The 38th Marine Brigade, who alone held Krynki for 124 days, receiving the Military Cross of Honour.- The 1027th Anti-aircraft and artillery regiment.

Why do so many of us founders try to do the equivalent of building a flatpack house without the instructions? And then beat ourselves up internally when it turns out to be harder than expected? Or when you make mistakes that anyone would in the same situation? Would you spend years trying to make it work with no instructions — just half-torn pages you've collected along the way, doing your best to stitch them together?Not just the furniture mind you - The foundations. The skeleton. The plumbing. The electrics. The legal and safety stuff too....... and while you're trying to build it, you're also trying to market it, sell AirB&B rooms and put the entire place up for sale?Would you spend 50-500k of your own money doing this, not to mention your unpaid time?That's effectively what we do as consumer packaged goods founders.After a tough few years, after countless marathons, we often end up with good products, and a brand we feel passionate about.Perhaps we get some early D2C wins, and some early retailer traction too.But then the stakes get higher. We need to making pricing, channel, hiring and funding decisions without ever being able to see how the whole system fits together.So decisions get made in isolation - without us realising they are joined up. (think pricing decisions and customer or channel read-across - and if you don't know what that means, ask below and I will tell you from my own experience, mistakes and learnings!)Problems get fixed as they appear.But the cost shows up later - in margin, stress, or decisions that need undoing.This is happening to thousands of us, everyday. How ridiculous is that? We're all making the same mistakes, incurring the same costs, getting more and more stressed - without ever asking: Why am I not looking for a set of instructions for this? Why am I beating myself up for not getting it right without them?After 25+ years working inside and alongside consumer brands - from global blue-chip FMCG to fast-scaling challengers, I kept seeing this pattern repeat.So I built the decision-making framework I needed and I wrapped it up inside the BGH Mini MBA. With a peer and expert network, so you don't have to carry this level of complexity on their own.Stop thinking you *should* be able to do this on your own.Fi Fitz ⚡

Happy January 1st—and happy Day 1 of Dry January (if you're doing it). I love that this episode drops on the very first day of 2026 because if you've been thinking, “I can't do another year like last year…” this is your sign. In today's episode, I'm joined by two of my favorite humans (and two of my best sober friends): Gill Tietz from the Sober Powered Podcast and Suzanne Wayre from The Sober Mom Life Podcast. The three of us have been “text buddies” for over five years (yes, it's basically a full-time job), and we wanted to get together to help you make this Dry January different—especially if you've tried before and found yourself back in the drinking cycle by Day 4… or Day 14… or the infamous second Friday in January (aka “Quitter's Day”). We're talking about what actually helps you keep going when motivation fades, real life hits, and your usual reasons for drinking show up (stress, boredom, parenting, work, relationships, feelings… and yes, even IKEA furniture). If you want 2026 to feel better, calmer, clearer, and more like you—this episode is for you.

Retrouvez l'épisode en version française ici : https://www.gdiy.fr/podcast/jesper-brodin-vf/Most people see IKEA as a furniture retailer.They're not wrong, but they're missing half the story.IKEA is also one of the world's biggest food companies. They have a massive investment arm managing billions in renewable energy. And they've pulled off what everyone else says is impossible: growing while cutting emissions.Jesper Brodin is an IKEA man through and through.He knows it inside and out, every product line, every market, every challenge.At 26, he was the only person who applied to run IKEA Pakistan.Thirty years later, he's been leading the 40-billion-euro Swedish giant with 170,000 employees for eight years through a pandemic, geopolitical chaos, war, and hyperinflation.In 2020, IKEA wasn't selling online.Six weeks later, all stores had gone digital.A two-year plan compressed into 42 days. 55,000 days of closure worldwide and a turnover that fell by only 4%.The company even made a profit, to the point of repaying all the state aid it received during the crisis.But his biggest achievement might be proving the trade-off is a myth.Under his leadership, IKEA grew by 24% and bet 4.2 billion euros on renewable energy.An attempt to prove that a furniture giant can grow without proportionally increasing its environmental footprint.In this episode, Jesper reveals:How do you grow without ever taking a bank loan?Why designing a €19 chair that requires more excellence than a €300 oneHow to digitize a several billion company in 6 weeks instead of 2 yearsWhy hierarchy is the enemy of speed and what they do about itThe IKEA's "side" businesses that are worth billionsA masterclass in leadership and sustainability with a CEO who spent 30 years proving that business success and planetary responsibility aren't opposites, but fuel for each other.You can contact Jesper on Linkedin.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : First day on the job: a kidnapping00:13:10 : How do you know it's time to quit?00:23:31 : The pandemic that digitized IKEA in six weeks00:35:37 : The CEO who does the dishes / Nothing is slower than hierarchy00:48:12 : Sustainability doesn't have to cost more01:05:24 : The bookshelf that explains how IKEA works01:17:05 : The democratic design formula01:26:30 : The blueprint for opening an IKEA store01:43:34 : The side business worth billions01:52:17 : The car-based model evolves02:02:35 : Regrets of inactionWe referred to previous GDIY episodes : #510 - Carole Benaroya - Kujten - La reine du cachemire#496 - Sébastien Kopp - VEJA - Faire du business autrement#467 - Christel Heydemann - Orange - Garder le cap pour réussir dans un marché en rupture permanente#461 - Sébastien Bazin - PDG du groupe Accor - Diriger un groupe coté en bourse sans ordinateur#234 - Amandine Merle Julia - Plum Living - Pimper IKEA pour proposer un design d'intérieur accessible à tousA few recent episodes in English : #500 - Reid Hoffman - LinkedIn, Paypal - How to master humanity's most powerful invention#487 - VO - Anton Osika - Lovable - Internet, Business, and AI: Nothing Will Ever Be the Same Again#475 - VO - Shane Parrish - Farnam Street - Clear Thinking: The Decision-Making Expert#473 - VO - Brian Chesky - Airbnb - « We're just getting started »#452 - VO - Reid Hoffman - LinkedIn, Paypal - L'humanité 2.0 : Homo technicus plus qu'Homo sapiens#437 - James Dyson - Dyson - “Failure is more exciting than success”#431 - Sean Rad - Tinder - How the swipe fever took over the worldWe spoke about :The Billy bookcase has sold 60 million copiesIKEA Ranks as World's Sixth Largest Food ChainReading Recommendations :Fifi BrindacierInterested in sponsoring Generation Do It Yourself or proposing a partnership ?

Mais ce n'est que la partie émergée de l'iceberg.IKEA est aussi l'une des plus grandes entreprises alimentaires au monde. Un fonds qui investit des milliards dans les énergies renouvelables. Et ils ont réussi ce que toutes les autres entreprises prétendent impossible : croître tout en réduisant leur empreinte écologique.Jesper Brodin a IKEA dans le sang.Après 30 années dans l'entreprise, dont 8 à diriger INGKA group, il connaît la société par cœur : chaque gamme de produits, chaque marché, chaque défi.À 26 ans, il était le seul à postuler pour diriger IKEA Pakistan.Trente ans plus tard, il a dirigé le géant suédois de 40 milliards d'euros et 170 000 employés pendant 8 ans à travers une pandémie mondiale, le chaos géopolitique, et la guerre.En 2020, IKEA ne vendait rien en ligne.Six semaines plus tard, toutes les boutiques étaient digitalisées.Un plan de deux ans compressé en 42 jours. 55 000 jours de fermeture à travers le monde et un chiffre d'affaires qui a seulement reculé de 4 %.L'entreprise a même dégagé un bénéfice, au point de rembourser l'intégralité des aides d'État reçues pendant la crise.Mais sa plus grande réussite reste d'avoir prouvé que le compromis écologique est un mythe.Sous sa direction, IKEA s'est développé de 24 % et a investi 4,2 milliards d'euros dans les énergies renouvelables.Une tentative pour prouver qu'un acteur majeur d'un secteur peut se développer sans proportionnellement augmenter son impact environnemental.Dans cet épisode, Jesper explique :Comment se développer sans prêt bancaire ?Comment digitaliser une entreprise de plusieurs milliards en 6 semaines au lieu de 2 ansPourquoi designer une chaise à 19 € demande plus d'excellence qu'une chaise à 300 €Pourquoi la hiérarchie est l'ennemie de la vitesse et ce qu'ils font pour y remédierL'activité parallèle d'IKEA qui vaut des milliardsUne masterclass en leadership et durabilité avec un PDG qui a passé 30 ans à prouver que succès commercial et responsabilité environnementale ne sont pas opposés, mais se nourrissent l'un l'autre.Vous pouvez contacter Jesper sur Linkedin.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Un kidnapping pour son premier jour00:13:10 : Comment savoir quand partir ?00:23:31 : La pandémie qui a digitalisé IKEA en six semaines00:35:37 : Rien n'est plus lent que la hiérarchie00:48:12 : Créer des produits durables ne coûte pas plus cher01:05:24 : L'étagère qui explique comment IKEA fonctionne01:17:05 : La formule du design démocratique01:26:30 : Le plan pour ouvrir un magasin IKEA01:43:34 : Le business parallèle qui pèse des milliards01:52:17 : Du parking au metro, la fin d'un modèle02:02:35 : Combien coûte vraiment l'inactionLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #510 - Carole Benaroya - Kujten - La reine du cachemire#496 - Sébastien Kopp - VEJA - Faire du business autrement#467 - Christel Heydemann - Orange - Garder le cap pour réussir dans un marché en rupture permanente#461 - Sébastien Bazin - PDG du groupe Accor - Diriger un groupe coté en bourse sans ordinateur#234 - Amandine Merle Julia - Plum Living - Pimper IKEA pour proposer un design d'intérieur accessible à tousNous avons parlé de :La bibliothèque Billy, vendue à 60 millions d'exemplairesIKEA : sixième plus grande chaîne alimentaire au mondeLes recommandations de lecture :Fifi BrindacierVous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.
