Podcasts about international business economics

Today we are talking with Pamela Luk, the founder of Ember & Ace, an athletic wear brand for plus size kids. Growing up playing sports, Pam learned firsthand the importance of finding active wear that fits. Not having activewear that fits is one of the main reasons kids quit sports. Pam launched Ember & Ace exclusively for plus size kids with a focus on comfort and performance. Pam's career has spanned the federal, commercial, and nonprofit sectors where she worked in project management and IT consulting. She holds an International Business & Economics degree from SUNY Brockport. Pam lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, daughter, and two dogs.

Alinda is ondernemer en managing director europe voor Lovevery. Lovevery ontwerpt kinderspeelgoed en heeft als doel om precies te voldoen aan wat kinderen in elke fase van hun ontwikkeling nodig hebben. Voordat Alinda vorig jaar de switch maakte naar ondernemerschap was zij werkzaam in de corporate wereld. Zo werkte zij als Finance Director Growth and Innovation en Strategic Planning Director voor Danone in Amsterdam en Parijs. Daarvoor werkte ze onder andere als Consultant voor McKinsey & Company, in Amsterdam, Singapore and Jakarta. Alinda vertrok na het afronden van haar gymnasium voor een jaar naar Brazilië om te studeren. Na terugkomst studeerde ze International Business Economics aan de Universiteit van Maastricht. Vervolgens behaalde ze haar Master Economics aan de Erasmus Universiteit in Rotterdam. Haar focus lag hierbij op Strategy and Entrepreneurship. Ze startte haar carrière bij McKinsey en verhuisde na twee jaar naar Singapore om voor Philips te werken. Vervolgens heeft ze een jaar INSEAD gedaan en aan McKinsey gevraagd om vanuit Azië voor hen te werken. Na een aantal jaar is ze teruggekeerd naar Nederland om te werken voor Danone, maar realiseerde zich op een gegeven moment dat ze veel tijd en energie stak in een product waar ze eigenlijk niet volledig achter stond. Op dat moment stuitte ze bij toeval op Lovevery, dat alleen nog in de US beschikbaar was, benaderde ze de founders en besloot ze de switch te maken naar ondernemerschap. Voor Alinda is de cultuur binnen haar bedrijf heel belangrijk en een goede cultuur helpt haar ook om authentiek te kunnen leiden. Goed leiderschap houdt voor haar onder andere in dat je kwetsbaar durft te zijn, waardering uitspreekt, successen viert, minder vanuit ego leidt, erop vertrouwt dat het goedkomt en dat je vooral de leider bent die je zelf ook het liefst had gehad. Deze aflevering gaat je gegarandeerd een heleboel inspiratie geven. ⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯ → Here's what you will learn: ● Dat het belangrijk is om humor in te zetten en niet alles serieus te nemen wat mensen tegen je zeggen. ● Waarom het kan helpen je niet druk te maken over problemen, voordat ze zich voordoen. ● Het belang van een goed support systeem en het hebben van rolmodellen. ● Waarom het belangrijk is om niet te streng te zijn voor jezelf; je moet accepteren dat je niet in al je rollen de beste kan zijn. ● Leave your ego at the door; leiden zonder ego. ● Dat je je niet hoeft te verontschuldigen voor wie je bent. ● Waarom een goede bedrijfscultuur helpt om authentiek te kunnen leiden. ● Welke eigenschappen volgens Alinda belangrijk zijn voor goed leiderschap. ⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯

Prior to this, Dominique worked for the UHNWI team of Bank Vontobel AG's Private Bank. Dominique holds a Master of Science (MSc) in International Business Economics from the University of Westminster in London. Highlights: “We don’t buy sustainability reports, we buy good companies” “At the time there were a lot of sustainable funds around, but we thought that these funds were not that sustainable. Because sustainability is also a financial aspect. A lot of these funds disappeared because they were investing in business models that were not sustainable in the end. So companies that went basically bust.” Carnot capital has two well established  funds - Carnot Efficient Energy Fund and Carnot Efficient Resource Fund. They also recently launched a circular economy index together with Bank Vontobel. Investing in established companies with products and services in industrial, transport and buildings technology, rather than energy transition into renewables. They also invest in resource efficiency such as food sector for example fisheries, agriculture, clean air and clean water. “And only if you ask those specific questions, you actually drill a little bit deeper than the usual biannual analyst call which is mainly very financial heavy, and governance heavy. We are able to ask a different set of questions to competing funds and that is our edge.” There is a lag between how rating agencies analyse these companies and how we interpret these companies with dialogue and deeper research and ESG ratings. Heatmaps of aggregation of the portfolio companies and SDG impact “In our experience, it is impossible to do impact investing without being an active investor.” “I think there will be two streets, two avenues. Either you analyze everything, and you analyze it with not enough depth or granularity, or you focus like us on a specific sector or even a specific portfolio.” How partnerships with banks can scale impact investing -1) create actively managed certificates and create derivatives themed around resource funds 2) traditional managed accounts where they pick out the best qualities from niche impact investors The challenges of climate change and resource scarcity will still be around after the coronavirus crisis.
