Three high-performing individual contributors got promoted to lead roles. All three are now miserable. The manager who promoted them is asking what to do. In this episode, Humanergy coaches John Barrett and Quay Eady work through exactly that scenario — why it happens, what the manager can do now, and what organizations consistently get wrong about developing people before they're promoted. The conversation covers a practical tool called FROM/TO for mapping where someone's strengths came from and what success looks like in their new role. Humanergy helps leaders and organizations work through real challenges like this one.

VOV1 - Sau 7 năm bị gián đoạn bởi căng thẳng chính trị, các lệnh trừng phạt và sự đứt gãy trong quan hệ ngoại giao, chuyến bay thương mại trực tiếp đầu tiên giữa Mỹ và Venezuela đã hạ cánh xuống thủ đô Caracas.Ngay trong ngày đầu tiên nối lại, chuyến bay xuất phát từ Miami đã hạ cánh xuống Caracas, đánh dấu việc khôi phục tuyến hàng không từng bị đình chỉ từ năm 2019, khi quan hệ song phương rơi xuống mức thấp nhất trong nhiều thập kỷ.Việc nối lại đường bay lần này không diễn ra đơn lẻ, mà nằm trong chuỗi các động thái cho thấy hai bên đang từng bước điều chỉnh cách tiếp cận, ưu tiên các kênh hợp tác thực dụng, đặc biệt trong lĩnh vực kinh tế và năng lượng. Trong bối cảnh thị trường toàn cầu còn nhiều biến động, việc Venezuela phát đi tín hiệu “mở cửa trở lại” cũng được xem là yếu tố đáng chú ý.Đại diện Mỹ tại Venezuela, ông John Barrett, cho biết việc khôi phục các chuyến bay thương mại không chỉ phục vụ nhu cầu đi lại, mà còn nhằm tạo dựng môi trường thuận lợi hơn cho doanh nghiệp và các dòng chảy đầu tư, đồng thời thiết lập lại các kênh kết nối đã bị gián đoạn suốt nhiều năm. “Hôm nay đánh dấu một cột mốc lịch sử khác trong quan hệ Mỹ - Venezuela, chúng ta đang chứng kiến sự tái thiết các mối quan hệ kinh tế và việc nối lại các chuyến bay thương mại là tín hiệu rõ ràng rằng Venezuela một lần nữa đã mở cửa cho hoạt động kinh doanh.”Sự kiện này nhanh chóng nhận được sự quan tâm và kỳ vọng lớn từ người dân, đặc biệt là những gia đình có người thân sinh sống ở nước ngoài. Với nhiều người, ý nghĩa của chuyến bay đầu tiên mang tính cá nhân và cảm xúc rõ nét, gắn với nhu cầu đoàn tụ sau thời gian dài chia cách. Bên cạnh đó, không chỉ giúp rút ngắn khoảng cách địa lý, việc nối lại đường bay còn mở ra kỳ vọng về sự phục hồi của các hoạt động giao thương, du lịch và dịch vụ – những lĩnh vực từng chịu tác động nặng nề của khủng hoảng kéo dài. “Đối với tôi, điều này rất quan trọng, tôi muốn về thăm gia đình, gặp những đứa cháu mà hơn 18 năm rồi tôi chưa được gặp.” “Thật tuyệt vời, đã hơn bảy năm rồi, và tôi rất vui khi có thể trở lại bằng chuyến bay thẳng từ Miami đến Venezuela.”Giới quan sát nhận định, dù còn nhiều khác biệt và thách thức chưa thể giải quyết trong ngắn hạn, nhưng việc khôi phục đường bay thẳng vẫn mang ý nghĩa như một “phép thử niềm tin” giữa hai bên. Nếu các tín hiệu tích cực tiếp tục được duy trì, đây có thể là nền tảng để Mỹ và Venezuela tiến xa hơn trong việc bình thường hóa quan hệ, hướng tới một giai đoạn hợp tác ổn định và thực dụng hơn trong tương lai./.Hồng Nhung/VOV1American Airlines – hãng bay Mỹ cuối cùng rời Venezuela năm 2019, cũng là hãng đầu tiên trở lại sau 7 năm gián đoạn.

The 2025 season is over, and Hall of Famer writer Steve Flink joins the show to recap the ATP Finals and the year's top storylines. Flink analyzes how Jannik Sinner was able to defeat Carlos Alcaraz in Turin, and explains why the Italian is so tough to beat on indoor hard courts. The journalist examines the Italian's commitment to evolve, the gap between the top two and their peers, and how Novak Djokovic will adjust to his new position off of the top of the tennis mountain in 2026. And Flink assesses Felix Auger-Aliassime's first Top 5 ranking, and the state of American tennis. As someone who's written for many of the biggest tennis publications in the world, Flink has established himself as one of the most credible voices in the game. He recounts how he discovered a love for tennis, his first jobs in the industry, and what he learned from legendary mentors Bud Collins and John Barrett. The Hall of Famer even shares his favorite memory of the Davis Cup on this informative episode of Inside-In. Hosted by Mitch Michals. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The fastest way to win more ISO and agent deals isn't adding more vendors; it's sharpening the story. We sit down with John Barrett and Andie Hill from Payroc to unpack how a focused core product strategy transformed recruiting conversations, accelerated close rates, and unlocked real wins in the SMB space. This is the third and final episode in our three-part series titled: Focus. Build. Win.John breaks down the four-part recruiting pitch that sets expectations and gets to fit fast: who Payroc is as a full-service acquirer, what the core solutions do, how infrastructure and culture support partners as customer number one, and where international expansion opens future lanes. Andie takes us into the field results: near sellouts of their terminal twice in a year, a step-change in win rates, and tangible gains when SMBs finally get pay by text, lightweight invoicing, and a polished countertop experience without enterprise POS cost or complexity. Service verticals like auto repair and landscaping benefit from simple scheduling, mobile-friendly payments, and fewer keyed transactions -practical improvements that agents can demo and merchants adopt quickly.We also walk through a vertical ISO case study that shifted to sending 95 percent of its business to Payroc after repeatable onboarding, underwriting alignment, and responsive support outperformed legacy processors. Throughout the conversation, feedback loops drive the roadmap: trade show questions, CRM win-loss data, and partner demos surfaced the need for features like scheduling, which moved from request to release. The core message is clear; focus doesn't mean fixed. The stack evolves, but the promise stays consistent: fewer products, better execution, stronger support, and a go-to-market that respects the time of the people closest to the merchant.

National Broadband Ireland (NBI), the company rolling out the National Broadband Plan (NBP) has today (Wednesday) hosted an event on Achill Island to mark the first connections to high-speed fibre broadband on the remote island Main build works on the island infrastructure are now complete enabling over 2,500 homes, farms and businesses to high-speed broadband. This means that residents of Ireland's largest island will have the same access to 2 Gig, reliable, broadband as any of the over 380,000 premises that NBI has already passed across the country. Minister for Culture, Communications and Sport, Patrick O'Donovan, T.D., was present at the event which included local public representatives, community groups and residents from the island. Minister O'Donovan said: "The National Broadband Plan is one of the largest State infrastructure projects since rural electrification, and ensures that no community, home or business is left behind from a connectivity point of view. This means that delivering broadband infrastructure to the residents of Achill Island is a natural extension of this mandate. "I'm delighted to be here today to witness first-hand the impact that this investment and connectivity to high-speed broadband is having for homes, businesses and the entire island community who will reap the benefits of it for decades to come." David McCourt, Founder and Chairman of National Broadband Ireland, commented: "At NBI, we are working to the mandate from Government to ensure that no town, village, or community will be left behind under the National Broadband Plan. No premises is too rural or too remote and we're proud to be here on Achill Island - one of 27 offshore islands in our rollout - to mark the availability of our world-class fibre network." TJ Malone, Chief Executive Officer, National Broadband Ireland, said: "The delivery of fibre broadband infrastructure to Achill Island is a significant milestone for NBI, and we are delighted to have end customers already connected and enjoying the benefits of reliable, high-speed broadband. This is a major step forward for digital connectivity, helping people stay connected, work remotely, stream seamlessly, and access vital online services. "Fibre broadband is the gold standard for fast, reliable internet - and thanks to the National Broadband Plan, many homes and businesses across Ireland can already make the switch today. By switching to fibre, users can leave behind the limitations of outdated copper networks, which were never designed to meet the demands of today's digital world." Local connected customer and owner of House of Achill, Anna Sutcliffe, said: "Since connecting to the NBI Network with Imagine, my business has really grown. Traditionally on the island, we are very dependent on the tourism season. Now with fibre, I finally have a fast, reliable connection to support online sales and ensure customer service year-round. I can now focus on what I enjoy most about the business: being creative." Glenda Brady, Commercial Director, Imagine, said:"At Imagine, our roots have always been in rural Ireland and in serving communities like Achill. This is a moment we're really proud of. Fibre connectivity will allow business owners, like Anna, succeed in a much bigger digitally connected market, no matter where they are based." Local connected customer and owner of Lilí Bán Café, John Barrett, said: "I opened Lilí Bán Café in the summer of 2021 and soon realised that running a business on Achill Island has its challenges. Without fibre broadband, the weather often impacted the signal and reliability of the connection. Since connecting to NBI's fibre with Westnet, it's been a real game changer. At the café, we can now manage online bookings and operate a card machine. It's exciting to see a new wave of business starting on the island and fibre connectivity has definitely played a big part in this." Paul Cunnane, Chief Executive Officer, Westnet, said: "Westnet has a long-standing...

George Anderson is the owner of Yellowstone Angler in Livingston, Montana, a fly shop he founded in 1979. His fly-fishing journey began in the Catskill Mountains of New York and was further honed in the Rocky Mountain West while attending the University of Colorado and working summers at a fly shop in West Yellowstone. After earning his business degree, George and his wife moved to Livingston, where he spent six years as assistant manager at Dan Bailey's before opening his own shop. In 1985, the current Yellowstone Angler location was built, just south of Livingston on Highway 89. Throughout his career, George has written for prominent fly-fishing publications, including Fly Fisherman, Trout, Big Sky Journal, and Saltwater Fly Fishing. He is also known for his success in competitive fly fishing, winning top honors at the Jackson Hole One-Fly in 1989 and 1990, setting records for the number of trout caught using his signature George's Rubber Legged Brown Stone nymph. George has appeared as a guest angler on numerous television shows, including Fly Fishing the World with John Barrett and Spanish Fly with Jose Wejebe, and he has filmed several ESPN segments with Trevor Gowdy in Cuba's Jardines de la Reina, targeting bonefish, tarpon, and permit. A passionate saltwater fly fisher, George leads annual trips to Caribbean destinations and hosts trout fishing excursions to Alaska, Argentina, and other world-class locations. When not on the water, he enjoys golf, alpine skiing, scuba diving, bird hunting, and cycling.
