Creating an Actionable Customer-Centric Company Culture  Shep interviews Sean Crichton-Browne, co-founder of Market Culture and co-author of The Human Culture Imperative. He talks about how organizations can drive business success by focusing on building a customer-centric culture of empowered employees.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What's more important, happy customers or happy employees?  How does starting with the end goal of happy customers encourage better customer service?  What role does leadership play in creating a strong culture of customer-centricity?  How can a company's internal culture directly impact the quality of the customer experience?  How does employee engagement influence customer loyalty and retention?  Top Takeaways:    Whenever you're working to improve customer experience, it helps to begin by picturing how you want your customers to feel at the end. Imagine what you want the customer's experience to be. Work backward from your goal, which is happy and loyal customers, and figure out what is needed at every level of the organization to achieve it.  Happy employees create happy customers, but flipping this idea on its head can create great results for your organization as well. Making customers happy can actually make employees feel better about where they work.  It leads to a better work environment that motivates and engages employees.  When customers are satisfied with the product or service, employees don't have to respond to as many complaints or stressful situations, which makes their jobs more enjoyable and fulfilling. Happy customers often give positive feedback, creating a sense of pride for everyone on the team and encouraging even better service. Listen to your customers. Ask them what they want and what's important to them. When you focus on understanding and meeting those needs, you create a connection between leadership, employees, and customers.  Empowering employees, especially those who deal directly with customers, improves the customer experience. When staff can act quickly to solve issues or offer solutions, without always needing a manager's okay, problems get fixed faster, and customers feel seen, heard, and valued.  The stories told inside a company, whether big or small, have a lasting impact on culture. When employees hear about coworkers going the extra mile for customers or leaders making decisions that put customers first, they inspire similar behavior that can be operationalized for consistency.  Plus, Sean shares more "golden nuggets" from his latest book, The Human Culture Imperative. Tune in!  Quote:   "Put the customer at the center of the business and focus on their satisfaction. Because if we don't have a customer, we don't actually have a business."  About:    Sean Crichton-Browne is the co-founder of Market Culture, a company dedicated to helping organizations understand and implement customer-centric cultures. He is the co-author of The Human Culture Imperative: The Leader's Playbook for Innovation and Sustainable Growth.  Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

The global landscape of education and work is changing at a pace that requires an entirely new approach to measurement. Trending in Education host Mike Palmer welcomes Amit Sevak, CEO of ETS (Educational Testing Service), the organization responsible for millions of assessments worldwide, to discuss the high-stakes transformation of how we identify talent. We explore how the trillion-dollar education sector is struggling to measure outcomes and why reliable data is essential to driving progress. Amit details the foundational work ETS is doing across K-12, higher education, and the workforce to shift the focus from traditional testing to competency-based learning and work-ready skills. We dive deep into the urgency of establishing an AI literacy framework and how technology is powering a new era of "test-less" performance assessments. Why You Should Listen Now: The War for AI Talent: Amit explains why the lack of a common AI literacy framework is a strategic challenge for the U.S. and how other nations are already standardizing AI education for young children. The Crisis of Underemployment: We break down the alarming statistics showing high unemployment and underemployment for new college graduates, highlighting the massive societal and economic pressure to measure job-relevant skills. The Future of Measurement: We get an inside look at how ETS is using AI, data science, and neuroscience to create innovative, personalized assessments that track complex skills like collaboration and communication—moving beyond the multiple-choice bubble sheet. 3 Key Takeaways from Our Conversation: AI Literacy is a New Language: We must introduce the fundamentals of AI to pre-elementary and elementary students to hardwire it as a first language, similar to English or Spanish. Data is the "New Oil": ETS produces over 5 billion data points annually, representing an amazing opportunity to reimagine products and drive social value through technology. The Two-by-Two of Transformation: The future of assessment is moving to measure both emerging skills (like AI and durable skills) and using innovative measurement methods (like performance and AI-enabled assessments). Join us to understand how better measurement is the key to unlocking human potential globally. Like what you hear?

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Hannah Penn, founder of HPPY Skin, to explore how a food-industry innovation is revolutionizing skincare. The technology—High Pressure Processing (HPP)—uses 87,000 psi of cold water pressure to preserve nutrients without heat or chemicals, unlocking the true power of botanicals while keeping their biochemical integrity intact.Inspired by her father's pioneering work with HPP in the food world, Penn saw the opportunity to apply the same science to skincare—where nutrient loss from traditional extraction is often overlooked. “We're not changing the ingredients,” she explains, “we're changing how they're processed.” The result is skincare that retains up to 10× more antioxidant content and delivers ingredients in their purest, most bioavailable form.Far from a “clean beauty” buzzword, HPPY Skin represents what Penn calls “Clean 2.0”—a science-first movement toward transparency, efficacy, and nutrient integrity. From early failed experiments to a patented process and the launch of BioBerry Infusion™, HPPY Skin's evolution embodies persistence, innovation, and data-backed results.Blending the expertise of food scientists, cosmetic chemists, and HPP engineers, Penn has built a cross-disciplinary team redefining what performance skincare looks like. “The beauty space doesn't need another white-labeled formula,” she says. “It needs innovation, quality, and excellence.”Tune in to hear how HPPY Skin is closing the nutrient gap in skincare—proving that sometimes, the future of beauty lies in a little pressure.SHOP HPPY Skin on their website, and visit their social media.CHAPTERS:0:02 – Introduction & Welcome0:44 – Family Innovation & Early Inspiration2:10 – Discovering HPP for Skincare3:00 – How High Pressure Processing Works6:05 – Testing & Scientific Validation9:39 – Cold Press vs HPP and Bioavailability10:44 – Rethinking Clean Beauty & True Innovation13:12 – From Trial and Error to Patented Process16:18 – Building a Multidisciplinary Team22:07 – Innovation, Impact & Consumer ResultsPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!

A former Hollywood screenwriter with a sharp eye for aesthetics, Sahara Lotti turned her storytelling instincts into design innovation. Frustrated by salon lash extensions that were costly, damaging, and time-consuming, she set out to invent something better—and did.

Sam shares his journey into the housing industry, his passion for sustainable building, and his insights into why the U.S. housing market is fundamentally broken. The conversation dives deep into housing affordability, productivity challenges, regulatory barriers, and the transformative potential of advanced manufacturing in home construction. Sam also discusses the importance of purpose, resilience, and the need for a national roadmap to fix the housing crisis.Here's the link to Inspector Empire Builder: https://www.iebcoaching.com/eventsCheck Sam's LinkedIn profile here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sam-rashkin-1684582/To check his book on Amazon, click here: https://amzn.to/4nhU5nHTakeawaysSam Rashkin's early passion for housing led him to a career in architecture and energy-efficient building.The U.S. housing market is broken due to a growing disconnect between home prices and median income.Productivity in the housing industry has declined over the past 150 years, with little innovation in construction methods.Advanced manufacturing and factory-built homes, as seen in countries like Sweden, offer a model for cost-effective, high-quality housing.Regulatory complexity and lack of a national building code hinder innovation and scalability in the U.S.Labor shortages and aging workforce are exacerbating the housing crisis.Sam advocates for a national attic upgrade program as a low-hanging fruit for energy efficiency improvements.Emotional connection and simplicity in consumer-facing metrics (e.g., star ratings for home energy scores) can drive better decision-making.Resilience and disaster preparedness must be prioritized in housing design, especially in high-risk areas.A collaborative, stakeholder-driven roadmap is essential to transform the housing industry.Chapters00:00 – Introduction and Sponsors01:35 – Guest Introduction: Sam Rashkin04:06 – Sam's Journey into Housing and Architecture06:45 – The Power of Purpose and Personal Stories11:18 – Why the U.S. Housing Market is Broken15:48 – Housing 2.0 and the Need for Disruption17:42 – Lack of Innovation in Home Construction20:43 – Customization vs. Standardization in Homebuilding23:50 – Lessons from Sweden: Factory-Built Homes33:05 – Labor Shortages and Immigration Challenges37:29 – The Future of Home Inspection41:18 – Creating a National Roadmap for Housing Reform44:07 – The Role of Building Codes and Regulation50:11 – Insurance Costs and Resilience55:06 – Government Programs and Hypocrisy in Efficiency56:29 – Shifting Perspectives and Asking the Right Questions57:51 – The Need for Change and Sam's Call to A

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Richard Easton, co-author of GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones, about the remarkable history behind the Global Positioning System and its ripple effects on technology, secrecy, and innovation. They trace the story from Roger Easton's early work on time navigation and atomic clocks to the 1973 approval of the GPS program, the Cold War's influence on satellite development, and how civilian and military interests shaped its evolution. The conversation also explores selective availability, the Gulf War, and how GPS paved the way for modern mapping tools like Google Maps and Waze, as well as broader questions about information, transparency, and the future of scientific innovation. Learn more about Richard Easton's work and explore early GPS documents at gpsdeclassified.com, or pick up his book GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Stewart Alsop introduces Richard Easton, who explains the origins of GPS, its 12-hour satellite orbits, and his father Roger Easton's early time navigation work.05:00 – Discussion on atomic clocks, the hydrogen maser, and how technological skepticism drove innovation toward the modern GPS system.10:00 – Miniaturization of receivers, the rise of smartphones as GPS devices, and early mapping tools like Google Maps and Waze.15:00 – The Apollo missions' computer systems and precision landings lead back to GPS development and the 1973 approval of the joint program office.20:00 – The Gulf War's use of GPS, selective availability, and how civilian receivers became vital for soldiers and surveyors.25:00 – Secrecy in satellite programs, from GRAB and POPPY to Eisenhower's caution after the U-2 incident, and the link between intelligence and innovation.30:00 – The myth of the Korean airliner sparking civilian GPS, Reagan's policy, and the importance of declassified documents.35:00 – Cold War espionage stories like Gordievsky's defection, the rise of surveillance, and early countermeasures to GPS jamming.40:00 – Selective availability ends in 2000, sparking geocaching and civilian boom, with GPS enabling agriculture and transport.45:00 – Conversation shifts to AI, deepfakes, and the reliability of digital history.50:00 – Reflections on big science, decentralization, and innovation funding from John Foster to SpaceX and Starlink.55:00 – Universities' bureaucratic bloat, the future of research education, and Richard's praise for the University of Chicago's BASIC program.Key InsightsGPS was born from competing visions within the U.S. military. Richard Easton explains that the Navy and Air Force each had different ideas for navigation satellites in the 1960s. The Navy wanted mid-Earth orbits with autonomous atomic clocks, while the Air Force preferred ground-controlled repeaters in geostationary orbit. The eventual compromise in 1973 created the modern GPS structure—24 satellites in six constellations—which balanced accuracy, independence, and resilience.Atomic clocks made global navigation possible. Roger Easton's early insight was that improving atomic clock precision would one day enable real-time positioning. The hydrogen maser, developed in 1960, became the breakthrough technology that made GPS feasible. This innovation turned a theoretical idea into a working global system and also advanced timekeeping for scientific and financial applications.Civilian access to GPS was always intended. Contrary to popular belief, GPS wasn't a military secret turned public after the Korean airliner tragedy in 1983. Civilian receivers, such as TI's 4100 model, were already available in 1981. Reagan's 1983 announcement merely reaffirmed an existing policy that GPS would serve both military and civilian users.The Gulf War proved GPS's strategic value. During the 1991 conflict, U.S. and coalition forces used mostly civilian receivers after the Pentagon lifted “selective availability,” which intentionally degraded accuracy. GPS allowed troops to coordinate movement and strikes even during sandstorms, changing modern warfare.Secrecy and innovation were deeply intertwined. Easton recounts how classified projects like GRAB and POPPY—satellites disguised as scientific missions—laid technical groundwork for navigation systems. The crossover between secret defense projects and public science fueled breakthroughs but also obscured credit and understanding.Ending selective availability unleashed global applications. When the distortion feature was turned off in May 2000, GPS accuracy improved instantly, leading to new industries—geocaching, precision agriculture, logistics, and smartphone navigation. This marked GPS's shift from a defense tool to an everyday utility.Innovation's future may rely on decentralization. Reflecting on his father's era and today's landscape, Easton argues that bureaucratic “big science” has grown sluggish. He sees promise in smaller, independent innovators—helped by AI, cheaper satellites, and private space ventures like SpaceX—continuing the cycle of technological transformation that GPS began.

SPACE ROBOTS! We are are talking about this exciting topic again in this episode. Icarus Robotics is a NY-based space robotics start up that just raised its $6M seed financing round. Co-founders Ethan Barajas and Jamie Palmer are our guests. 

Hello to you listening in these still indivisible United States of America!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.I've been following Parker Palmer's work since I bought a copy of his book, Let Your Life Speak - Listening For the Voice of Vocation, in 1999. You might be familiar with this quote which has become a guiding light for me: “Before you tell your life what you intend to do with it, listen for what it intends to do with you. Before you tell your life what truths and values you have decided to live up to, let your life tell you what truths you embody, what values you represent.”  Over these past months We the People have turned occasional protests into protest projects coupled with growing political power to heal democracy.How else do we need? Palmer's book, Healing the Heart of Democracy; The Courage to Create a Politics Worthy of the Human Spirit (published in 2011) draws on our human instinct to choose hope, creativity and action for the common good over conflict.Following are five “habits of the heart” that can help us restore democracy's foundations as we nurture them in ourselves and each other:   • An understanding that we are all in this together   • An appreciation of the value of “otherness”   • An ability to hold tension in life-giving ways   • A sense of personal voice and agency   • A capacity to create communityChange arises out of chaos; but we have to learn the root causes of the chaos in order to shepherd our way to change. If it's true that a nation gets the government it deserves, I believe it is also true that We the People are shaping the government we desire with truth, values and heart work: a democracy of the people, by the people, for the people.Question: What truths and values do you represent that will help heal our democracy? And thank you for listening.You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

In this thought-provoking episode of Voices for Excellence, Dr. Michael Conner sits down with Rebecca Bultsma — international AI ethics researcher, Chief Innovation Officer, and co-host of AmpED to 11 — to explore what it really means to lead in the age of artificial intelligence.From Kendrick Lamar lyrics to ethical paradoxes, this conversation moves from AI strategy and governance to the human heartbeat of education. Rebecca unpacks her belief that “ethics is the seatbelt of AI strategy”—a grounding metaphor for how innovation must move fast, but never without responsibility.Together, Dr. Conner and Rebecca dive into:How ethics and strategy intersect in real-world decision-making, from boardrooms to classrooms.The VIBE Framework (Visible, Intentional, Beneficial, Earned) — Rebecca's approach to ensuring AI use in schools stays transparent and trustworthy.The coming wave of frontier models like GPT-5, Claude 4.1, and Grok 4 — and what they mean for leaders, teachers, and students.How AI agents could transform personalized learning and potentially repurpose traditional schools into community-based learning hubs.Why the next decade demands permission-to-fail leadership — cultures that value experimentation, iteration, and vulnerability over perfection.And how the learners of tomorrow — Generation Alpha and soon Generation Beta — will thrive by staying curious, unimpressed, and unapologetically human.Rebecca challenges listeners to imagine a future where education isn't confined to classrooms, grades, or standardized tests, but exists as a network of personalized experiences, guided by ethical innovation and human connection.This is more than a conversation about technology — it's a blueprint for human-centered transformation in the age of AI.
