In this comprehensive discussion led by Dawn Rickabaugh, a seasoned seller finance expert and owner of NoteQueen.com, the multifaceted benefits and strategies of using owner financing in real estate transactions are explored in depth. Dawn emphasizes the critical interplay between "property and paper," referring to the tangible real estate asset and the financial instruments (notes) that represent debt secured by that property. The conversation covers practical insights for buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals on how seller financing can serve as a powerful alternative or complement to traditional bank financing, especially in challenging market conditions where conventional loans may be difficult to obtain. Dawn highlights the growing importance of owner financing amid tightening credit markets, rising interest rates, and shifting real estate dynamics in various U.S. regions and Canada. She explains how owner financing not only opens doors for buyers with substantial down payments but limited access to bank loans, but also creates unique opportunities for sellers to maximize their property's value by offering flexible, attractive financing terms. The discussion dives into the strategic advantages of owning and buying notes, including the ability to buy back one's own mortgage at a discount, negotiate terms directly with note holders, and benefit from the personal relationship between buyer and seller—advantages not available with traditional bank loans. Real-life examples and participant insights enrich the discussion, illustrating how owner financing can enable cash flow, tax benefits, and enhanced deal flexibility. The session also addresses common misconceptions, the importance of legal protections such as first rights of refusal and transferability clauses, and innovative approaches like rent-to-own conversions and master leases. The conversation culminates in practical advice for real estate agents to leverage these tools to rescue commissions and become indispensable dealmakers in a market where creative financing solutions are increasingly vital. Dawn announces forthcoming educational courses aimed at empowering buyers and investors to confidently use owner financing and notes as wealth-building vehicles. Overall, the session serves as both a primer and an advanced exploration of seller financing's potential to transform real estate investing and homeownership. ### Highlights   - [00:00:05]

In this episode of Beer and Money, Ryan Burklo discusses the contrast between small thinking and big thinking in financial planning. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on larger financial goals rather than getting caught up in minor savings habits, such as cutting out small luxuries like Starbucks. By analyzing the impact of lifestyle choices on savings and the power of incremental changes, Ryan illustrates how a small adjustment in spending can lead to significant wealth accumulation over time. He encourages listeners to adopt a big picture mindset to enhance their financial well-being. Check out our website:  beerandmoney.net For a quick assessment of your current financial life go to: https://www.livingbalancesheet.com/lbsVision/lite/RyanBurklo Takeaways Small thinking focuses on minor savings, like cutting out Starbucks. Big thinking involves understanding the larger financial picture. Saving $50 a week may not significantly impact long-term wealth. A household income of $300,000 can lead to substantial savings if managed well. Incremental changes in lifestyle can have a dramatic effect on savings. A 1% difference in lifestyle spending can lead to millions in savings over time. It's essential to capture savings automatically to build wealth. The wealth building account can help manage finances effectively. Small adjustments can lead to significant financial outcomes. Thinking differently about money can change your financial future.

Generative AI has captured global attention, powering everything from chatbots to intelligent assistants. Yet in the enterprise, its promise often hits a dead end. According to Gartner, 80 per cent of enterprise data remains unused or “dark,” because conventional AI struggles to interpret complex, domain-specific information.In this episode of the Don't Panic It's Just Data podcast, EM360Tech host Trisha Pillay speaks with Andreas Blumauer, Senior Vice President at Graphwise, about how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and its advanced application, Graph RAG, are levelling up enterprise AI. Together, they explore the limitations of traditional AI, the critical role of knowledge graphs in improving data accuracy, and what it takes for organisations to successfully adopt these technologies.Why Graph RAG MattersWhile RAG enhances Generative AI by enabling it to retrieve relevant data from large knowledge bases, Graph RAG takes it further. By integrating knowledge graphs, Graph RAG preserves the relationships, sequences, and meaning inherent in enterprise data. This ensures AI outputs are not just collections of facts, but structured insights that reflect the logic of an organisation's knowledge.These advantages include:Higher accuracy: Retrieval precision can increase from 80% to 95%, reducing errors in AI outputs.Trustworthy results: Outputs are explainable and traceable, providing transparency that enterprises require.Scalable integration: Connects data across silos and departments, making AI adoption enterprise-ready.“Graph RAG respects the structure of enterprise data instead of flattening it. That's what makes it trustworthy,” explains Blumauer.Generative AI opened the door to possibilities. RAG made it actionable. Graph RAG takes it to the next level. By transforming dark, siloed data into structured, actionable knowledge, Graph RAG helps organisations achieve the accuracy, trust, and scalability essential for navigating the next frontier of enterprise intelligence.Takeaways80 per cent of enterprise data remains unused or dark.Traditional AI struggles to interpret complex enterprise data.RAG retrieves information from within the enterprise data landscape.Graph RAG improves the accuracy of AI outputs.Knowledge graphs link data points across different silos.Building a knowledge graph is a strategic investment.Incremental growth is possible with knowledge graphs.Graph RAG can increase accuracy from 80 per cent to 95 per cent.Data quality and governance are essential for AI success.The future of enterprise AI relies on effective knowledge management.Chapters00:00 Introduction to RAG and Graph RAG03:04 Understanding the Importance of Knowledge Graphs05:46 Adopting RAG: Organisational Readiness and Strategic Investment08:51 Real-World Applications and Benefits of Graph RAG11:56 The Evolution of Knowledge Graphs in AI14:46 Future of GraphRAG and Enterprise AI17:36 Rapid Fire Questions and Closing ThoughtsAbout GraphwiseGraphwise is a leading enterprise AI company specialising in knowledge graph technologies.

Pricing isn't just a box office task. It's one of the most strategic levers arts organizations have. Yet too often, pricing is treated as an emotional, reactive decision; or worse, an afterthought. In this episode, we unpack why the sector has fallen behind inflation, why the fear of raising prices lingers, and how strategic pricing can reshape both revenue resilience and accessibility. From pandemic-era hesitancy to the misconception that lowering price drives demand, we explore why pricing belongs at the leadership table and what it looks like when data (not gut instinct) drives decisions. This is a call for leaders to move beyond set-it-and-forget-it pricing and instead adopt a discipline of monitoring, testing, and adapting. When pricing is managed strategically, organizations don't just cover costs; they build relationships and grow loyalty and sustainable income. Key takeaways you can act on: Pricing is leadership work: The most important financial lever shouldn't be left to siloed decision-making. Fear is costing you revenue: Incremental price adjustments prevent the “catch-up sting” of years of inaction. Demand drives price (not the other way around): Price changes don't create demand; they should respond to it. When seats aren't selling, the challenge is awareness and value perception, not the cost of the ticket. Accessibility and revenue can coexist: Strategic scaling allows organizations to expand affordable access while strengthening income. Dynamic pricing is about nuance: It means responding to demand in both directions: raising or lowering when data shows it matters. Stop measuring success by sellouts: Optimize per-ticket revenue and define success by patron behavior, not full houses. For more insights, past episodes, and to sign up for our newsletter, visit trgarts.com/leadingtheway  Contact Info:   Email letstalk@trgarts.com

What Seinfeld Taught Me about Iterative and Incremental - Mike CohnAgile is both an iterative and incremental process. I've taught this in classes for 25 years. Yet I've never felt like I had the right way to explain how they both differ and relate.Until now.I recently watched the documentary “Comedian,” about Jerry Seinfeld deciding to return to standup comedy after ending his long-running hit television series.The film shows Seinfeld developing a completely new act. He couldn't rely on jokes from his standup routines from a decade earlier.He begins by performing for just a few minutes at small comedy clubs. After each performance he refines the wording, sequence, and pacing of his jokes. He's iterating over each joke.As he finds material that works, he adds time to his show. His performance goes from five minutes to ten. He is incrementally building his show. He continues adding increments (new jokes) until he achieves his goal of more than an hour of new material.Refining each joke is iterating. Adding jokes bit by bit until he has a full show is incremental.This example also shows why iterating and incremental aren't very good on their own. Imagine a comedian who only iterates over existing material but never adds new material. Or one who keeps adding new jokes but never iterates to ensure each is funny.Another thing the “Comedian” movie teaches is the value of experimenting. When Seinfeld (and another comedian profiled in the film) perform, their shows contain a mix of material they know will get laughs and some new jokes they're trying out.Experimenting is equally important in product development. Teams can experiment with their process or the product—by delivering small, partial features to confirm their value before going all-in.I knew agile teams need to be iterative and incremental, but this documentary taught me comedians need to also if they want to succeed at comedy,How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

Can detoxification go far beyond drug rehab, revealing the hidden environmental burdens sabotaging our health every day? This episode dives deep into strategies that empower clinicians to move beyond symptom management and foster true, vibrant wellness for their patients.Today, Dr. Emmie Brown, ND, welcomes Dr. Carl Paige and Dr. Terri Paige, founders of the Medical Transformation Center, for an insightful discussion on moving beyond conventional medicine toward a whole-systems approach to health and longevity. Drawing from decades of clinical experience and personal health journeys, the Paiges detail the fundamentals of cellular medicine: treating patients by optimizing cellular function through a layered approach that combines Western allopathic tools with peptides, advanced diagnostics, environmental toxin management, and comprehensive lifestyle interventions. This conversation highlights the importance of evaluating patients not just by symptom or diagnosis, but by considering inflammation, energy metabolism, toxin exposure, and even environmental and genomic risk factors.Key Takeaways from Today's Episode:

What's up everyone, today we have the pleasure of sitting down with Simon Lejeune, VP of Growth at Wealthsimple. (00:00) - Intro (01:16) - In This Episode (03:55) - How to Escape Local Maximum Traps in Growth Marketing (08:59) - Productive Laziness Mindsets (12:03) - The Psychological Trap of A/B Testing (15:55) - Balancing Clean Experiments with Bold Bets (18:43) - How to Use Incrementality to Measure Real Campaign Impact (22:32) - How to Approach Incrementality Without Large Data Sets (25:13) - The Best Use Cases for Incrementality Tests (29:58) - How to Handle ROI Conversations Without Slowing Down Growth (38:02) - Why Most A/B Testing Is a Waste of Time (47:17) - When Natural Language Becomes the Interface, Channel Expertise Stops Being a Moat (01:03:31) - How to Use Game Thinking to Stay Energized in Growth Roles Summary: Simon Lejeune learned early that chasing small wins keeps growth teams stuck, a lesson that landed hard when Hopper's CEO dismissed his price‑point test as a “local maximum” and pushed him toward ideas bold enough to reshape the business. That experience drives how he leads at Wealthsimple, where he tells teams to stop polishing the same hill and start climbing new mountains by deleting work that doesn't matter, cutting projects when the lift is negligible, and measuring true incrementality with one simple question: “What would have happened if we didn't do this?” He believes AI is accelerating this shift, turning deep channel expertise into a commodity and making curiosity, speed, and ruthless prioritization the real competitive advantages. Growth, in his view, belongs to teams who can abandon the comfort of optimization and pursue experiments big enough to change the trajectory.About SimonSimon Lejeune is a seasoned growth leader with over a decade of experience scaling some of North America's most recognized tech brands. Currently VP of Growth at Wealthsimple, he drives client and asset growth across products like Trade, Crypto, Cash, Invest, and Tax. Before that, Simon founded Mile End Growth, a boutique agency delivering strategy, creative, and media buying for startups, and led user acquisition at Hopper, where he managed multimillion‑dollar budgets and built one of the most sophisticated in‑house ad automation engines in travel tech. His career began at Busbud and Nomad Logic, where he directed growth marketing and developed new revenue‑generating spin‑offs.Local Maximum vs Global MaximumHow to Escape Local Maximum Traps in Growth MarketingA local maximum trap happens when teams keep optimizing small features that look like wins but cap long-term growth. Simon uses the metaphor of being blindfolded on uneven terrain. You walk in every direction until each step feels lower, then assume you have reached the peak. When you take off the blindfold, you see you are standing on a hill while a much larger mountain waits in the distance. Many growth teams spend months, sometimes years, stuck on those hills.Simon experienced this lesson in an uncomfortable way. During his final interview at Hopper, CEO Fred Lalonde asked him what he would change first to grow revenue in the app. Simon answered with what felt like a logical idea. He suggested testing different price points for the $5 tip option, maybe $4 or $6, to find the best revenue point.“He looked at me and said, ‘That's literally a local maximum, and I do not want you doing that,'” Simon recalled.That feedback forced Simon to change his perspective. He proposed a more radical idea: building a separate app that would use Hopper's flight data to surface ultra-cheap Ryanair-style deals under five euros. It sounded risky and unconventional, but Lalonde loved it. Simon left that meeting understanding that real growth often comes from bigger, more disruptive ideas that challenge the current model instead of refining it.Growth teams can apply this lesson by actively questioning whether their experiments drive material change or simply polish what already exists. Regularly evaluate whether you are optimizing features, pricing, or flows when the real opportunity may be entirely new product lines, bold pricing experiments, or acquisition channels that look nothing like what you use today.Key takeaway: Incremental optimizations create comfort but rarely drive exponential growth. Audit your current priorities and identify one experiment that pushes far beyond incremental gains. Focus on ideas that reimagine your product, acquisition model, or customer experience. That way you can escape local maximum traps and open paths to growth that small experiments will never reach.Productive Laziness MindsetsSimon challenges his team to delete more work than they refine. “The fastest way to do something is not to do it,” he said. He encourages what he calls “productive laziness,” which means questioning why a task exists before sinking hours into improving it. Many growth teams fill their calendars with recurring meetings and busywork that provide comfort but little actual impact. Simon wants his team to hunt down and remove the 80 percent of work that clogs up progress.“You could probably not do 80 percent of what you're doing, and you need to take the time to find it.”He distinguishes between local and global maxima. Local maxima are small, incremental wins that stack up over time. They create efficiency, but they rarely transform outcomes on their own. Simon shared a story from Wealthsimple where his team used a simple AI-driven prompt to quickly generate FAQs for new promotions. It only improved one process by a few percentage points. Combined with other similar fixes, it meaningfully reduced the time from campaign idea to launch. These small process wins compound into real operational speed.Simon points out the trap many teams fall into when these tweaks become the entire focus. He calls out A/B testing as the classic example. The industry celebrates small lifts in conversion rates, yet the promised gains rarely translate into significant growth. “If you've had that many wins,” he said, “your conversion rate should be 300 percent by now.” Experienced operators know that most of these improvements exist only in reports, not in the top-line numbers.He pushes for a balance between incrementalism and bold redesigns. Teams need to ask hard questions: Does this process deserve to exist? Does this experiment meaningfully impact the business? Would rebuilding this system create more value than optimizing it? Those are global maximum questions, and they require a willingness to break away from the comfort of small wins to pursue something transformative.Key takeaway: Use incremental process improvements to accelerate execution, but regularly pause to audit whether the work itself creates meaningful business impact. Remove tasks, experiments, or processes that do not clearly connect to growth. That way you can free up the capacity to pursue global maximum opportunities that drive measurable, lasting results.The Psychological Trap of A/B TestingLocal maximum thinking happens when teams equate motion with progress. Simon describes this as the pattern of chasing a string of small A/B test wins while nothing meaningful shifts in the business. Every tweak produces a minor lift, enough to justify the next experiment, yet the bigger picture remains stagnant. The illusion of progress feels convincing in the moment, which is why so many teams stay stuck in it.He experienced this firsthand at Wealthsimple. The team wanted to answer a straightforward question: should they push new users toward onboarding ...

The Study Skills Handbook: How to Ace Tests, Get Straight A's, and Succeed in School (Learning how to Learn Book 17) By: Peter HollinsHear it Here - https://bit.ly/StudySkillsHollinshttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B099QWGNNGThis video delves into effective studying techniques drawn from "The Study Skills Handbook: How to Ace Tests, Get Straight As, and Succeed in School" by Peter Hollins. Learn how to make your study sessions fun, easy, and successful. We'll discuss Chapter 2 topics including subject mastery, teaching others, and The Learning Pyramid. Discover the power of The Protégé Effect in enhancing your learning experience. Join us as we unravel these valuable strategies to help you reach your academic goals."Studying Techniques: Unlocking Your Full Potential - Study Skills Handbook"**Tags/Keywords:**- Study Skills Handbook- Peter Hollins- Studying Techniques- Subject Mastery- Teaching Others- Learning Pyramid- Protégé Effect**Learning Through Teaching:**- Deepens our understanding and retention- Discovers richer appreciation for concepts- Effective strategy to improve recall and comprehension**The Protégé Effect:**- Students who teach others perform better- Incremental learning, responsibility, egoprotection**Analogies in Teaching:**- Powerful tools for conveying new concepts- Use various analogies for different topics- Clarify purpose and reserve them for complex ideasJoin us as we delve into the fascinating world of learning through teaching. Discover how this approach deepens our understanding, enhances recall, and leads to better comprehension. We'll explore the protégé effect, a phenomenon where students who teach others thrive in their academic journey. Lastly, we'll unpack the power of analogies in teaching – an essential tool for effectively conveying new concepts. Stay tuned as we dive into these topics and more! • By learning to teach others, we deepen our own understanding and retention, since we uncover a richer and more fundamental appreciation of the concepts behind the material. Compared to other strategies, teaching others may have the highest chance of improving recall and comprehension. • The protégé effect is the observation that students who teach others do better, perhaps because they learn incrementally, take responsibility for the learning process, and are “ego-protected” from the prospect of failure. • Analogies, examples, and metaphors are powerful tools to convey new concepts. To use them effectively in teaching/learning, make use of as many different analogies as possible and mix them in frequently, using examples to illustrate. Only use those analogies that actually work (i.e. don't forget their purpose) and reserve them more complex topics, since they may only confuse simpler ideas. **Key Takeaways:**- Teaching others deepens your own understanding and retention of concepts- The protégé effect: students who teach others perform better- Use analogies, examples, and metaphors to convey new concepts effectively - Use multiple analogies for complex topics - Avoid confusing simpler ideas with overly complex analogies**Additional Notes:**- Teaching others enhances learning experience- Protégé effect: students take responsibility and are protected from failure- Analogies provide effective illustrations, but use them wisely.

The sisters are ecstatic to build with writer, activist and historian Rebecca Solnit. Her latest book is No Straight Road Takes You There: Essays on Uneven Terrain.They talk about how solidarity is always across difference and about the things we have in common mattering more then the things we don't, how liberation is contagious, prioritizing where to pour our energy, a politics of inseparability vs. the politics of division, our default response of turning towards each other in a crisis, how it turns out that even when your world has fallen apart you can light up with joy because you found the meaning and connection that's been missing in everyday life, a world with an abundance of time and security rather than abundance as neoliberal rhetoric, how there's no shortage of anything, just distribution problems, hunkering down for the likely reality of climate collapse and how we can't save everything but that doesn't mean we can't save anything.---⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TRANSCRIPT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT OUR SHOW⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow---HTS ESSENTIALS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT Our Show on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PEEP us on IG⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/endoftheworldpc/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠

This week on the show, Marit Chervier de Ruiter brings her expertise in combining commercial structure with psychoanalytical principles to help businesses achieve long-lasting results in negotiation and sales. We dig into the critical differences between negotiation strategy and tactics, Marit shares game-changing tips for high-stakes negotiations, and how to cultivate stronger, more collaborative relationships with clients. She also shares her top dos and don'ts in negotiation and offers a real-world example of navigating a challenging deal with grace and success. Outline of This Episode [00:00] Build value step-by-step in negotiations to create stronger long-term relationships. [05:33] Know your audience, predict reactions, and stay agile. [06:48] Choose negotiation strategy based on relationship: competitive for one-off deals, collaborative for long-term relationships. [12:03] Be cautious about sharing too much information in negotiations to prevent the other party from using it against you. [10:13] Marit's top three negotiation dos and don'ts. [13:44] A real-life scenario where Marit's informal strategy resets the negotiation tone. Strategies and Tactics for High-Stakes Sales Your strategy is your overall plan: the “why” and “what” behind your negotiations. It's about defining your end goal and determining the outcomes you hope to achieve. Tactics, on the other hand, are the practical steps and techniques you employ during the negotiation—the “how” that helps implement your strategy. Marit brilliantly uses the analogy of the board game Risk. Your strategy might be to conquer the most territories in Asia, but your specific moves—where to place armies, which battles to pick—constitute your tactics. This symbiotic relationship between strategy and tactics is at the heart of effective negotiation. Incremental Value Creation as a Powerful Negotiation Strategy When entering high-stakes deals, Marit's go-to strategy is incremental value creation. Rather than rushing in to claim as much as possible, she advocates for building value collaboratively and step by step. This approach aims to expand the “pie” for all involved, rather than fighting for the largest slice of a smaller one. Incremental value creation doesn't just lead to higher deal outcomes—it also lays the groundwork for strong, long-term relationships. As Marit notes, being able to foster trust and collaboration through this approach is just as important as the immediate value of the deal itself. Tactics for Gaining Leverage in Complex Deals Marit's experience has equipped her with three favorite negotiation tactics that consistently deliver results: Giver's Gain & Reciprocity: By giving value upfront, you trigger the powerful psychological principle of reciprocity. When you offer something, the other side is often compelled—sometimes unconsciously—to give in return. The Power of Silence: Marit emphasizes that listening is critical. Silence can be uncomfortable, leading others to fill the gap with information. The insights gained from simply listening can be incredibly valuable in steering negotiations. Never Go Alone: In high-stakes negotiations, going as a team allows you to multitask during meetings—you can observe nonverbal clues, take notes, listen attentively, and strategize in real time. Solo negotiators simply can't do it all; teamwork is a tactical advantage. Collaborative vs. Competitive Approaches Marit highlights the importance of tailoring your negotiation strategy to the context. If you're pursuing a one-time transaction, a more competitive stance may suffice. But if you're aiming for a long-term relationship, collaboration and value creation take precedence. However, what if your counterpart takes a competitive approach despite your collaborative intentions? Marit's advice: acknowledge the approach, reset the tone, and strive to steer the discussion toward shared value rather than mere positional bargaining. Marit wraps up the episode with a real-world example: facing a key client who violated a contract but remained strategically vital. Instead of severing ties, her team reset the relationship through informal conversation before formal negotiation, split roles as “good cop, bad cop,” and found a mutually acceptable solution. The outcome? A salvaged relationship and a creative, trust-based agreement.

As we work on our new season of Becoming the Vision, we're thrilled to feature an episode from the new podcast, Nonprofits Now: Leading Today from the good folks at The Chronicle of Philanthropy. SUBSCRIBE TODAY!--As nonprofit leaders grapple with increasingly dire threats to their funding and missions, it's more important than ever to understand what it takes to lead resilient organizations.For a look at what skills are most important, we hear from Vanessa Priya Daniel, who interviewed 45 social-justice leaders for her new book, Unrig the Game: What Women of Color Can Teach Everyone About Winning.Daniel combines her extensive research for the book with her own experiences as an organizer and founder of Groundswell Fund and Groundswell Action Fund — which together have distributed more than $100 million to over 200 organizations led by women of color and transgender people.In a conversation with Chronicle CEO Stacy Palmer, Daniel says her interviews led her to identify three all successful change agents possessed: • Bold ideas. Incremental solutions don't add up to enough to solve the tremendous challenges of today and tomorrow.  • Generosity. Daniel says an “ethos of rising by lifting others” is what makes the women she interviewed successful. • 360-degree vision. There's never just one cause of a problem that's complex and worth solving.---You can find a video version of this episode at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugOjpCJ3ChE&t=81sNonprofits Now: Leading Today is hosted by Stacy Palmer. It's produced by Emily Haynes at the Chronicle of Philanthropy and from Reasonable Volume, Mary Dooe is the producer, Mark Bush is our engineer, and Rachel Swaby and Elise Hu are executive producers. Additional support comes from Margie Fleming Glennon, Andrew Simon, Nick Adams, Krista Niles, Amaya Beltran, and Kyle Johnson.

In this episode of 21st Century Water, we sit down with Matt Stouder, Executive Officer of the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC) in Oregon, to explore how his leadership is driving operational resilience, environmental stewardship, and innovative thinking in wastewater management. We begin by learning how Matt's rural upbringing and early exposure to water chemistry inspired a lifelong commitment to environmental protection and public service. His path from stormwater engineering to leading a regional utility reflects a deep-rooted belief in stewardship, collaboration, and giving back to the community.We then dive into the scale and structure of MWMC, which serves about 275,000 residents across Eugene and Springfield. Despite owning over $500 million in assets and operating a major treatment plant with a peak capacity of 277 MGD, the commission itself has no employees and operates through intergovernmental agreements—Springfield handles the administration and capital projects, and Eugene manages the operations. Matt emphasizes how strategic coordination is key to balancing daily operations with long-term capital investments, especially as the infrastructure ages.We discuss MWMC's shift from expansion to asset renewal, including a strong focus on asset management and funding strategies. Incremental rate increases and a rate stabilization fund have helped buffer financial volatility, allowing the utility to maintain steady investment without burdening ratepayers. Matt also shares MWMC's approach to innovation through projects like the biocycle farm, where biosolids are applied to hybrid poplar trees for local reuse, and a renewable natural gas facility that generates new revenue streams while reducing emissions.Communication and education emerge as central themes. From community partnerships and public outreach at local fairs to an award-winning Clean Water University program for fifth graders, MWMC prioritizes transparency and awareness. Matt's engineering background doesn't limit his commitment to public engagement; instead, it reinforces it.As we shift to environmental goals, Matt outlines how MWMC embraces a circular economy mindset. Instead of costly infrastructure like chillers, the utility addresses thermal pollution by planting trees along the McKenzie River, effectively reducing river temperatures while supporting watershed health. He also highlights how climate change is affecting local precipitation patterns, forcing the utility to adjust infrastructure capacity and operational readiness.Looking ahead, Matt is focused on a $300 million infrastructure renewal plan, transforming biosolids into a higher-value Class A product, and potentially expanding MWMC's services to nearby communities through regionalization. He views himself as a custodian of the system, aiming to leave the utility stronger than he found it and prepared for the next generation.More:Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC): https://www.mwmcpartners.orgOregon Association of Clean Water Agencies (ORACWA): https://oracwa.orgNorthwest Natural Gas (NW Natural): https://www.nwnatural.comWillamette Riverkeeper: https://www.willametteriverkeeper.orgNational Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA): https://www.nacwa.orgPacific Northwest Clean Water Association (PNCWA): https://www.pncwa.org Aquasight Website: https://aquasight.io/

In this special episode recorded at Engage 2025, Generation AI hosts Ardis Kadiu and Dr. JC Bonilla sit down with Dr. Tracy Brundage, President of ABAC in Georgia, for a candid conversation about the real challenges of AI transformation in higher education. Moving beyond the typical efficiency metrics, they explore what it truly means to be "AI powered, people focused" and why incremental change isn't enough anymore. The discussion reveals that the biggest obstacles aren't technological—they're human, cultural, and structural. With students arriving on campus after years of ChatGPT use in high school, the panel examines how institutions must fundamentally rethink their approach to education, moving from delivering more software features to providing AI teammates that actually get used.

In the world of motor encoders, there are two main types – incremental and absolute. Incremental encoders do not retain their actual position upon power-up, whereas absolute encoders do. They both give position feedback, which the motion controller can use to calculate velocity, acceleration and jerk. These parameters are necessary for a fully capable motion control system. In this episode of Control Intelligence, written by Joey Stubbs, editor in chief Mike Bacidore discusses absolute encoders.

What if the secret to transforming your life isn't found in radical changes or overnight success stories, but in the power of small, consistent actions? In this episode of As the Leader Grows, I'm excited to share the philosophy that helped me lose nearly 100 pounds of body fat and build a thriving business ecosystem - "incremental, not monumental."

You'll discover my exact morning routine that sets each day up for success - from worship and Bible study to intentional goal-setting and affirmations that rewire your thinking.I share the surprising practice that's been fundamental to my success: writing down my goals twice daily, which means I'm focusing on my vision at least 600 times each year. This level of consistency is what separates those who achieve their dreams from those who merely wish for change.Whether you're struggling with health challenges, building a business, or seeking personal growth, this episode will equip you with practical wisdom to implement the power of incremental habits in your own life.

Jason shares insights on how to navigate the challenges of a busy life while maintaining a focus on personal growth and self-mastery. What to listen for: We wanted to set a nature where we could spend time with family You have to create the importance level of the things on your list Incremental growth is essential for success in any endeavor Don't panic; instead, focus on finding solutions Managing panic involves empowering your team to act Stay balanced and avoid getting lost in emotional ups and downs Break down challenges into manageable tasks to reduce stress Goals require actionable steps to become a reality “If everyone in the world took all their problems and put them into one big pile and then took that big pile and split it into even paths and everybody took their problems out from there, the majority of the world would be begging for their problems back.” Our struggles often seem overwhelming until we compare them to what others are dealing with. Recognizing that others might gladly trade places with us helps foster gratitude People naturally adjust to their own challenges, making them more manageable over time What feels impossible to you may be someone else's dream scenario Instead of wishing them away, embrace your problems as opportunities for growth “Usually there's three things, maybe four things that you need to do each day that are gonna bring you into a better spot, personally, financially, physically, emotionally.” Prioritize the few tasks that truly impact your life and progress Daily, intentional actions compound into significant results over time Just because you're doing a lot doesn't mean you're being productive Growth isn't just about work—nurture your body, mind, finances, and relationships Consistency beats intensity when it comes to building the life you want About Jason Yarusi Jason brings all of his hands-on experience to you.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE: If you've been stuck between 5K and 15K months and wondering why you're not scaling, this episode is for you! Today, I'm breaking down the incremental growth trap—why doing more of what's already working isn't enough to create real momentum. I'll share the key shift that separates those who stay stuck from those who scale to 20K, 30K, and beyond without adding more work to their plate. We'll dive into why constant tweaking, playing it safe, and waiting for the “perfect time” are actually holding you back—and how high-level refinement, not more effort, is the real solution. Plus, I'll walk you through how my Revenue Accelerator helps entrepreneurs make this shift, so they can create consistent, predictable income with ease.

You are caught in what is called incremental growth.” - Julie Solomon “  One of my private clients, when she came to me, she was making about 8 K to 12 K months consistently, but she felt like she had to push so flipping hard every single month to get there and she was doing all the things. She was tweaking her content, her offers, her pricing, always looking for the perfect formula. She would show up to things. She would invest a little in there with things, but what she really needed wasn't another tweak. It was honestly a complete shift in how she positioned her authority. And the moment that we leaned into that together, boom, she had her first 18 K month, then scaled to 25 K months within 90 days with less effort but more focus, let that sink in.” - Julie Solomon RESOURCES: [JOIN MY VISIBILITY TRAINING] With just 1 hour a week, my proven content framework will help you refine your messaging and turn your offers into consistent, scalable sales.
