A social choice represents the collective decision of the individuals based on their preferences over the alternatives. There are societal services operated by governmental or non-governmental organizations which implement a social choice model. For example, the allocation of shelters to homeless individuals considers both the preferences of homeless individuals and the shelters. However, the preferences of such vulnerable populations may not be as structured as required in the system for them to receive an effective service. Peash’s research focus is on building a unified preference system to reflect the unconventionality in the natural preferences of the vulnerable attempting to access such services. The novel fairness criteria are defined as an end goal of such allocation of services to improve the service for more individuals and broader communities. Peash designs algorithmic solutions to satisfy such fairness requirements on unified preference models. The research outcome has the potential to improve the operational efficiency of ongoing societal services by providing services to more individuals as required.

She advises offices to focus on the highlights and important information during huddles, rather than going through every patient on the schedule. Michelle also touches on the use of sports analogies in business and the importance of defining success based on individual goals. She encourages private practices to focus on the patient experience and their own definition of success, rather than considering selling to a DSO as a solution to challenges. Michelle also discusses the difficulties in finding and retaining staff in the current job market and suggests considering training and onboarding individuals from outside of dentistry. Lastly, she emphasizes the importance of flexibility and adaptability in a startup practice, as systems and layouts may need to be adjusted as the practice grows and changes. Takeaways Success in dentistry requires putting in the work and not just focusing on clinical responsibilities. Understanding the business side of dentistry and being involved in all aspects of the practice is crucial. System implementation and training are key to effective scheduling, financial management, and communication within the practice. Open-mindedness and a willingness to overcome challenges are important traits for success in dentistry. Clear communication and visual reminders are essential in a dental practice to ensure that the team consistently follows necessary procedures. Morning huddles are a valuable opportunity to get the entire team on the same page and maximize productivity by focusing on the highlights and important information. Defining success based on individual goals is crucial for private practices, and selling to a DSO should not be seen as the only solution to challenges. Finding and retaining staff can be challenging in the current job market, and considering training and onboarding individuals from outside of dentistry may be a viable option. Flexibility and adaptability are key in a startup practice, as systems and layouts may need to be adjusted as the practice grows and changes.

Summary In this conversation, host Douglas Hamandishe sits down with Andrew Rolf to tackle the evolving landscape of digital transformation and its impact on the modern workplace. Delving into the toxic traits associated with transformation, Douglas and Andrew underscore the critical need for humor, humanity, and a strong sense of purpose to navigate these changes. They discuss the increasing disconnect employees feel between their tasks and the final outcome, highlighting the loss of fulfillment and the quest for meaningful work. The conversation also explores the importance of trust and connection in a remote working environment, the potential benefits of a four-day workweek, and the crucial balance of valuing time and technology's role. By reimagining education and work, they advocate for a future where efficiency, creativity, and enjoyment are not mutually exclusive but integral to the success of transformation projects and the well-being of employees. This episode serves as a compelling dialogue on redefining the essence of work and the path towards a more fulfilling and purpose-driven workplace. Takeaways Toxic traits can arise in digital transformation projects, leading to resentment and disengagement among employees. Creating a positive and connected work environment is crucial for the success of transformation projects. The shift in the workplace and the disconnect between work and the end product can contribute to a loss of purpose and fulfillment. Humor and humanity play a significant role in fostering a productive and engaged workforce. Fulfillment and purpose are important in the workplace, and employees want to feel connected to the outcome of their tasks. There is often a disconnect between tasks and the impact they have on the organization, leading to frustration and a lack of fulfillment. Trust is crucial in the workplace, especially in remote work situations where the boundaries between work and home are blurred. The concept of a four-day week is gaining traction, but organizations need to consider how to maintain productivity and efficiency. Respecting time and value in the workplace is essential, and organizations should focus on optimizing customer journeys and driving efficiency. Efficiency improvements can be achieved through a focus on customer journeys and data analysis. Politicians need to understand and embrace transformation to drive meaningful change. Empowering teams and creating a safe environment is crucial for successful transformation. The future of work may involve individuals having multiple employers and pursuing portfolio careers.

Since 2020, not only some national governments but also many large multinational companies have announced their climate pledges - reaching net zero emissions by 2050. Among them are some oil and natural gas giants, such as BP, Shell, Chevron and ExxonMobil, which are the majors in the industry and the top contributors of the carbon emissions across the corporate world.  • How do we understand the majors' mid-term and long-term climate strategies? • Shall the end-users of oil and gas products, like the global consumers of conventional vehicles, share the responsibilities of burning dirty fuels, emitting carbon dioxide and causing climate change?• Among regulating corporations by setting up a phase-out timeline of old technology, nudging consumers to change behavior, and subsidizing the growth of a new low-carbon technology, which option shall policy makers choose?  • Why is it controversial for the majors from both Europe and the United States to invest in large amount of carbon offset projects? • Can the majors bet on the promised development of new technologies, like carbon capture and storage and direct air capture, and go through the energy transition in the long run? In this episode, Dr. Gregory Trencher from Kyoto University in Japan shares his research findings and viewpoints based on a new paper which he co-authors with the other two scholars.Further Reading: Trencher, G., Blondeel, M. and Asuka, J.

In a service business, growth can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it's great to see your company expanding and taking on new clients. On the other hand, growth can put a strain on your resources, making it difficult to maintain the same level of service.    That's why it's important to focus on efficiency when you're trying to save money and improve profitability. In other words, rather than simply raising prices, look for ways to cut costs and increase productivity.    For example, you might consider offering extended warranties to your customers. While this can be beneficial for companies, self-warrantying can cause issues with valuation if not done correctly.    In this episode of Service Business Mastery we discuss: How focusing on improving efficiencies within a company can help save money and improve profitability, rather than simply raising prices. When considering changing pricing, businesses should look at their overall financial state and make data-driven decisions. Why offering extended warranties can be beneficial for companies, but self-warranting can cause issues with valuation if not done correctly.   The bottom line is that when it comes to pricing, businesses should look at their overall financial state and make data-driven decisions. By taking a strategic approach to pricing, you can ensure that your service business remains profitable as it grows!

Not having much experience in the trades allowed him to look outside of the box as the company grew.   Billy cleaned up the image of plumbers and implemented other time saving strategies. These things seem ordinary now but no other companies were doing this at the time.    One important thing Billy learned at Berkeys: Dispatchers are pulled in every direction... by technicians, CSRs, managers, owners, customers & support staff.   Compounding the problem, current software requires even MORE staff.    The key obstacle to growth is the chaos in the office. Industry software is fundamentally flawed... It not only ignores the chaos, it compounds it!   And nobody has created a viable solution!   Until now.   Enter: **drum roll** ....

How many times does a patient come in for surgery, only to experience delays that have nothing to do with them? For example, lack of available beds on the floor leads to PACU filling up with patients, which then prevents the OR from continuing because they can't send their patients to recovery, and suddenly the next patients coming in experience a bottleneck of delays that they had no part of or control over. Every day, breakdowns in our communication and our processes prevent us from maximizing our efficiency and experiencing peak performance. We're tackling this topic today with Dr. Bohdan Oppenheim, PhD, Professor of Systems Engineering at Loyola Marymount University. We'll discuss how healthcare suffers from fragmentation and a lack of training in workflows. Dr. Oppenheim will also explain how communication, coordination, and integration of the multiple processes that we go through daily all play into providing safe and efficient patient care.

Especially during the last year, delegating tasks and empowering team members has been a challenge. But it doesn’t have to be. Even those employees who don’t see their job as a career path and even those who have the menial (but necessary) tasks that no one else wants to do can and should have a voice. Today’s podcast guest, Meg Oliver, demonstrates beautifully the importance of expectations, training, and providing opportunities to everyone.   Meg is a CVPM of a four doctor practice in New York. She has 20 years experience in the field and a special interest in finance. She is also the founder of her local manager’s group and the owner of Central New York Pet Emergency Fund. In today’s episode, she explains a lot of common problems and ways to solve them. Not only does she have practical advice specifically for those in the veterinary medicine field, but she also offers amazing recommendations for leaders anywhere.    Empowering and delegating is hard to do but it can be done and it requires a lot of letting go on your part as a leader. Show Notes: [2:43] - As managers we get stuck in the mindset of things getting done right if you do it yourself or the mindset of helping the team complete tasks that you don’t need to do. [3:03] - Meg says that it all starts with proper job screening. Being on the same page of what the job expectations are is crucial. [4:03] - Phase training is also incredibly important. We can’t expect great results if we don’t provide the proper training. [5:29] - Setting up parameters for team members is vital for making sure we empower them but that they don’t just “take it and run.” [6:29] - The foundation of training makes a huge difference. This includes clear communication to those who are doing the training. [7:30] - It is advised to prepare new receptionists that not everyone comes in happy. [8:27] - As managers, it might be hard to let go of certain tasks and delegate them to someone else. It also feels good to be the person that is needed. [8:54] - You should be able to step out of the hospital and it run without you. [10:22] - It is okay for managers to ask support staff how to do something that you haven’t done in a long time or don’t know how to do. It helps bring the team together. [12:18] - Meg suggests having the team write the SOP. This gives them voice and an opportunity to bring fresh ideas to the table. [13:11] - Give the team a template and expectations and empower them to make decisions. [14:40] - The assistant position is perfectly fine to use as a stepping stone to a higher position or not. Not everybody is an overachiever. [15:43] - The “workhorses” and overachievers balance each other out in Meg’s practice. They all offer something different. [17:11] - There are some different levels of delegation and empowerment. We are setting ourselves up for failure if we don’t have the norm of job and movement expectations. [18:09] - We need to step back as managers and accept that not everyone will see their job at the practice as a career. They can still have a voice. [19:36] - Meg shares “The Kitty Jar,” which is something she implemented to encourage positive feedback and acknowledgement. These small things make a difference. [20:42] - One of the goals of a leader is to encourage everyone and get the best out of everyone that you’ve already got. [21:21] - Deb shares a humorous story of how they discovered an employee had Covid as she was going above and beyond cleaning a mess. [22:27] - We can’t always control everything, but we can offer an environment that is positive and encouraging. For something to reach self-actualization, they need to feel fulfilled in their job. [23:24] - Meg suggests reading books by Brene Brown to understand this even more. [24:10] - Opportunity can mean a lot of different things for everyone. You have to give people an opportunity to succeed but also to fail. Mistakes will happen for growth. [25:49] - Giving someone the task of managing social media gives them the feeling that they are contributing. [26:32] - Self value is part of being happy and being fulfilled at work. [27:02] - During evaluation periods, ask team members what their interests are and find out what they want to be better at. [28:10] - As a profession, delegation has not been a strength. [29:03] - Educating outside veterinary medicine is important when you are a leader. Look outside the box and learn how to better the team. Thank you for listening. Remember you are not in this alone.

The future of the supply chain may be driven by consolidation as Covid-19 fueled bankruptcy hits more manufacturers and suppliers. But even if more factories close, the challenges apparel retailers and brands have faced in gaining visibility over their processes can be overcome if they're willing to get as close to the source as possible. Jose Suarez, founder and CEO of Vaēso, a comprehensive digital shop floor execution system providing real-time visibility to the shop floor including work in progress, says that while consolidation concerns are real, retailers and brands still have ample room to improve productivity within their factories. In fact, Suarez believes that these companies can double the rate of output within their factories with the same labor and overhead. Listen to this conversation to hear why Suarez says retailers and brands must get more involved in managing factory efficiency and quality. Learn more about your ad choices.
