Breweries are increasingly under pressure to adopt sustainable practices, including using recyclable packaging. However, navigating the complex landscape of packaging materials, recycling processes, and conflicting manufacturer claims can be daunting. In this presentation, we will demystify the recyclability of popular packaging solutions such as plastic rings, paperboard carriers, and aluminum cans. We'll explore how these materials are processed at local recycling facilities, highlight common misconceptions about their environmental impact, and identify gaps between manufacturer claims and municipal capabilities.Additionally, we'll dive into current state legislation shaping recycling standards and its implications for breweries. By providing clarity on which packaging solutions truly support a circular economy, this session equips breweries with the knowledge to make informed decisions aligned with sustainability goals and customer expectations. Whether you're a small craft brewery or a large-scale operation, this presentation will offer actionable insights to improve your packaging strategy and stay ahead in an evolving regulatory environment.Jeff Watkins is the founder of Proper Pack, an innovative company launched in 2019 to provide breweries with eco-friendly, curbside-recyclable packaging solutions. With over eight years of experience as a packaging engineer, Jeff has worked extensively with diverse materials and manufacturing processes, gaining deep insights into the intersection of sustainability and functionality in packaging design. Recently earning an MBA, Jeff combines technical expertise with business acumen to help breweries align their packaging strategies with both environmental goals and market demands. A passionate advocate for sustainable practices, Jeff brings a unique perspective to the challenges and opportunities in beer packaging, offering practical solutions for a more circular economy.Stay up to date with CBP: http://update.craftbeerprofessionals.orgJoin us in-person for CBP ConnectsHalf workshop, half networkingCharlotte, NC | June 9-11, 2025Register now: cbpconnects.com

Join me as I sit down with Jeff Watkins, a 2004 state champion and a Davis High School Hall of Famer, to explore the dynamic real estate market of Southern Utah. Ever wondered if we're heading toward a real estate bubble in Washington County? We explore this question while sharing a lighthearted conversation about childhood dreams and our mutual love for hot dogs. Jeff and I even dive into the local sports scene, reminiscing about the football season and the buzz surrounding Utah Tech's first year in the Western Athletic Conference.Our discussion turns to the latest market trends, where sellers seem to have the upper hand. With an average sold price increase of 6% and the median price up by 3%, we dissect what's at play. From bustling developments in Zone Six to the potential impacts of the PGA Championship, there's a lot reshaping Southern Utah's landscape. We also touch on mortgage intricacies, such as why bond markets matter more than the Federal Reserve's moves, and explore innovative ideas like listing homes with potential monthly payments.Lastly, we tackle the challenges homebuyers face with rising costs and limited inventory. With fewer homes available than in previous years, we discuss the implications of increasing construction costs and the impact of remote workers with higher incomes moving into the area. As we explore new developments like the expansion of St. George Airport and the proposed Northern Corridor project, we consider the balance between development and conservation, reflecting on the unique environmental and political challenges that lie ahead.Find admission to HAC 3rd Annual Attainable Housing Forum here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hac-3rd-annual-attainable-housing-forum-tickets-1000526360277Looking for a Real Estate expert?

Show Notes What do they go for? They go for one that's separated from the herd. And the idea behind cyber security nowadays should really actually be: put enough security controls in that they just go, "you know what? There's someone down the road that's got it all wide open. I'm just gonna go for them." And if you can just make yourself look as unappetizing and unappealing as possible, that's half the battle. — Lianne Potter Welcome to The Modern .NET Show! Formerly known as The .NET Core Podcast, we are the go-to podcast for all .NET developers worldwide and I am your host Jamie "GaProgMan" Taylor. In this episode, Lianne Potter and Jeff Watkins of the Compromising Positions podcast joined us to talk a little bit about the practical side of cyber security. Both Lianne and Jeff are cyber security professionals and have a ton of experience in the industry. But I had them talk about cyber security from a developer's point of view: what can we do, what do we need to know, and how can we help our colleagues on a daily basis? I think the other side's true as well. I think companies in general need to encourage a more holistic, and shift-left, and integrated approach to security. I think we talk about that quite a bit about the idea of this should not be an "over the fence," because I guess there's two sides of the coin. One side saying, "oh look, there's the security team, they're the Department of Work prevention, they're the ones who are going to stop you." And there's the other side of that coin where nobody's bothered to ever include people from the security in their ways of working and daily practices — Jeff Watkins So let's sit back, open up a terminal, type in dotnet new podcast and we'll dive into the core of Modern .NET.

Welcome to Compromising Positions! The tech podcast that asks non-cybersecurity professionals what we in the industry can do to make their lives easier and help make our organisations more prepared to face ever-changing human-centric cyber threats! Join your hosts, Lianne Potter, Cyber Anthropologist and Head of Security Operations for a major retailer, and Jeff Watkins, Cybersecurity enthusiast and CTO for a software consultancy as they interview this week's guest!This week our guest is Melina Palmer, a renowned keynote speaker in behavioural economics and the CEO of The Brainy Business, as well as hosting one of the best podcasts on the subject of the practical application of behavioural economics.In this episode, we're going to discuss the art of influencing both up and down, and how to tailor your cybersecurity message to different audiences. Melina teaches us that it's not about the cookie - that is, it's not just about the product or cybersecurity awareness and controls themselves, but it's about how we frame information and communicate change.With her expertise in behavioural economics, Melina shows us how to make change easier, reduce decision fatigue, and increase social capital through understanding and compromise.What you'll learn in this episode:Effective communication is key to influencing both up and down in an organization. Tailoring your message to the audience and framing it in a relatable way can make you a more thoughtful communicator.Cybersecurity awareness and controls are crucial for preventing breaches, but the way you "sell" the experience matters. By making engagement positive and impactful, you can increase social capital and encourage people to follow the rules.Change can be overwhelming, especially when we're already dealing with a lot of decisions and cognitive load. To make change easier, it's important to focus on what matters in the moment and avoid overwhelming people with too many changes at once.By understanding how our brains work and tailoring our communication and change management strategies accordingly, we can make a positive impact on our organizations and help drive progress.If you're interested in understanding the behavioural science behind cybersecurity and how we can communicate more effectively, then you're in the right place.

Key takeaways for this episode are:Understanding the behaviour that leads to insecure cybersecurity behaviour is crucial in developing effective cybersecurity strategies. Silos and tribal mentalities in the workplace can be detrimental to team dynamics and productivity. Leaders should work towards creating a 'team company' culture. Confirmation bias and focusing illusion can lead to negative relationships and narrow perspectives. It's important to listen and build positive connections. Cybersecurity messages should be framed in a way that resonates with users and takes into account their knowledge and habits. To effectively communicate cybersecurity information, it's important to get into the mind space of the person you're communicating with and provide easy-to-digest content.If you're interested in understanding the behavioural science behind cybersecurity and how we can communicate more effectively, then you're in the right place.

Welcome to Compromising Positions! The tech podcast that asks non-cybersecurity professionals what we in the industry can do to make their lives easier and help make our organisations more prepared to face ever-changing human-centric cyber threats with your hosts Lianne Potter and Jeff Watkins! This week we have a very special guest, Reema Vadoliya. Reema is the passionate business founder of data consultancy, People of Data, a gifted storyteller, and a professional problem-solver. In this episode, Reema shares her insights on how to collaborate more effectively between cybersecurity and data professionals. She emphasizes the importance of empathetic communication, how sometimes quantifying risks is about gut feeling, not just metrics… We look at how we can use data-driven storytelling to engage and educate people about cybersecurity, including how to make our phishing simulation stats not only more interesting to non-cybersecurity people but also how to make it actually drive meaningful behavioural changes.Top 5 Takeaways for Building a Strong Data Culture and Cybersecurity:1. Collaboration is key: The best way to ensure data security is by fostering good relationships between cybersecurity and data teams. Encourage open communication and explain the importance of keeping data safe.2. Empathy is crucial: To solve problems effectively, it's important to understand the actual problem. Avoid closed questions and focus on the "why" behind the issue.3. Checklists can help: Consistent, repeatable, and reusable rules of engagement can prevent insecure practices and reduce the need for constant consultation with the security team.4. Quantifying risks is complex: Sometimes, you need to rely on gut feeling to balance a complex risk landscape. Business analysts can help identify potential risks that may have been overlooked.5. Start small: Building a strong data culture takes time. Start by removing barriers that make data feel unobtainable and use storytelling to help people understand complex concepts. Make better use of phishing data to tell better stories and improve outcomes.Links to everything we discuss in this episode can be found in the show notes and if you liked the show, please do leave us a review.

We hope you enjoyed episode 7, If Data is the new oil, how do we prevent data spills? - See you next time, keep secure, and don't forget to ask yourself, ‘Am I the compromising position here?' Show NotesThe phrase ‘Data is the new oil' was coined by Clive Humby in 2006. In this, he meant that data, like oil, needs refinement and processing to turn it into something useful. We couldn't find the original conference in which Humby said this, but I did find an interesting article looking at this assertion years later called ‘Data is the new oil of the digital economy' by WIRED which is worth a read. As of November 2023, GDPR fines can be up to 20 million euros, or up to 4% of a company's global turnover of the preceding fiscal year (whichever is highest for the company found in breach of this regulation). A ‘DBA' is a Database Administrator'. A DBA is a person who manages, maintains, and secures data in one or more data systems so that a user can perform analysis for business operations. DBAs take care of data storage, organization, presentation, utilization, and analysis from a technical perspective.The meme Jeff was talking about is the ‘Prince or Popstar meme.' A nice write up of it can be found here. One of the best books at looking at the successes of checklists is Matthew Syed's thought-provoking book, Black Box Thinking: The Surprising Truth About Success - highly recommended by team CP! Data in Practice: Systematizing data quality at Uber Uber's Data Blog About Reema VadoliyaReema is a passionate business founder, gifted storyteller and tireless advocate for inclusion in data. By challenging audiences to reshape their perception of data as a dreary necessity, she draws out the real human stories which organically empower intentional inclusion in data and beyond. After seven years and multiple roles in data, Reema decided to launch her new, trailblazing company, People of Data. Through this organisation she seeks to create a world in which data can be used as a springboard for understanding the real people that data represents.Reema is confident speaking about data strategy, analytical exploration, data collection and governance. Her talks offer a passionate manifesto for a world in which Equality, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (EDIB) are the beating heart of all data handling and usage. An experienced speaker not afraid of digging into the gristle of the difficult topics, Reema's talks push beyond a 1D (one demographic) view of data and offer a refreshing, multi-dimensional consideration of how humanised data can pioneer a brighter future.Links related to Reema VadoliyaReema's LinkedInReema's Consultancy, People of Data

Welcome to part two of our enlightening discussion with Matt Ballentine, Engagement Manager at Equal Experts.In this episode, Lianne Potter and Jeff Watkins continue this conversation and dive deeper into the nuances of modern-day communication and work dynamics. Do we need to set new etiquette for engaging in conversations? How do we establish norms when our work environment is evolving?Matt also shares insights on the importance of security in our workflow, the power of networking and the need for effective communication and some unconventional wisdom including our favourite thought experiment ever… what would Dolly Parton do?Establishing New Norms for Work: Top Tips1. Build Rapport: To establish new norms for work, you need to know who you need to influence and build rapport with them. Think about the language you use, ask for conversation, and set up a coffee club to create a comfortable environment.2. Embrace Discomfort: Getting comfortable with discomfort is essential to establish new norms for work. Use metaphors to help address problems and think about what Dolly Parton would do to enable better ideas.3. Be Inclusive: When off-shoring and outsourcing teams, think of the team as a whole. Be conscious of time zones and make people who are not in the room active participants.4. Prioritise Communication: Establishing new norms for work requires prioritising communication. If it doesn't get prioritised, it doesn't happen. Avoid firefighting and focus on drills, learning, talking, and listening to create a comfortable and productive work environment.Links to everything Matt discussed in this episode can be found in the show notes and if you liked the show, please do leave us a review and share on LinkedIin or in your teams, it really helps us spread the word and get high-quality guests, like Matt, on future episodes.

He was magnificently brilliant, kindhearted, sweet and strong- in mind and spirit, if not so much in body. Jeff, thank you for the time and love you gave me. I hope you're happy wherever you are, and that if you can hear me or know my heart right now, that you realize how much of an impact you made in my life, and how much of an impression you made in the lives of so many, many others.Love You,NaeP.S.-This episode is also dedicated to all of those who might be dealing with the loss of of a loved-one; as well as to the memories of those whom we've lost through years.
