He underscores the need for a radical rethink in organizational management to address contemporary challenges such as innovation, strategic renewal, and employee engagement. Drawing parallels from history, Hamel illustrates how groundbreaking management innovations in companies like Whole Foods, WL Gore, and Nucor have driven exceptional performance.

Shaky markets. Panicky clients. Accountants, it's your time to shine.  Accounting ARCWith Liz MasonCenter for Accounting TransformationPresident Donald Trump's tariff announcement has sent shockwaves through the business community—and accountants are on the frontlines of the fallout. In the latest Accounting ARC podcast, Liz Mason, CPA, and Ron Baker, CPA (inactive), analyze the implications of Trump's decision to impose a 10% blanket tariff on all imports, alongside a dramatic 54% tariff on goods from China.  MORE Accounting ARC: Crypto, Cash, or Chaos?

"And businesses need to prepare for those costs to flow straight to consumers." The decision, justified under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, aims to curb the U.S. trade deficit. Yet Baker, founder of the VeraSage Institute and radio co-host of the www.VoiceAmerica.com show: The Soul of Enterprise: Business in the Knowledge Economy, warns of potential unintended consequences. “Protectionism historically leads to retaliation, and that's bad news for everyone,” he notes. 

A provincial tuition freeze and a federal cap on foreign student visas are squeezing the funding available for Ontario's post-secondary institutions, particularly colleges.

Psychological safety is a crucial but often misunderstood concept in modern organizations. In this episode, Andrew and Mark take a deep dive into its origins, how it became a foundational principle of high-performing teams, and why "safe to challenge" can sometimes backfire if implemented poorly.We explore the history, research, and practical applications of psychological safety, from its early roots in therapeutic psychology to Amy Edmondson's groundbreaking research in the 1990s, to its popularization by Google's Project Aristotle. Along the way, we discuss common misconceptions, the role of leadership, and how organizations can create a culture where people feel safe to challenge ideas without fear of repercussions.In this episode, we talk about:What is Psychological Safety? – A definition of psychological safety and why it matters for team performance.The Origins of Psychological Safety – How early research by Carl Rogers, Edgar Schein, and Warren Bennis laid the groundwork for modern team dynamics.Amy Edmondson's Breakthrough – How her 1996 study of nursing teams revealed that psychologically safe teams report more mistakes—not because they make more, but because they feel safe admitting them.Google's Project Aristotle – How Google's research found psychological safety to be the #1 factor in team success, and how it fits alongside dependability, clarity, meaning, and impact.The Challenge with "Safe to Challenge" – Why focusing on challenging authority without first fostering psychological safety can create a toxic environment instead of a productive one.Leadership's Role in Psychological Safety – Why leaders must model fallibility, vulnerability, and openness to feedback to create a climate where others feel safe to speak up.Avoiding Common Misconceptions – The pitfalls of treating psychological safety as a shield against performance expectations, a license to criticize without accountability, or a box to check off rather than a culture to build.Practical Tips for Leaders & Teams – How to cultivate psychological safety in your workplace, from building familiarity and social bonds to creating low-risk "practice fields" for feedback and challenge.This episode is packed with history, research, and actionable insights to help leaders and teams build a culture where challenge leads to innovation, not fear.

In his recent IngenioUs blog post, David J. Staley discusses the evolving landscape of higher education based on insights from Martin Betts and Michael Rosemann's book, The New Learning Economy: Thriving Beyond Higher Education. Staley introduces the concept of "educational well-being," emphasizing the need for continuous learning to maintain relevant knowledge and skills throughout one's career. He critically examines the traditional higher education model as primarily an "up-front knowledge industry," suggesting it is increasingly inadequate due to rapid knowledge depreciation driven by advancements in AI and automation. Staley advocates for Educational-well-being-as-a-Service (EaaS), a subscription-like model that continuously updates educational credentials similar to how healthcare services are administered. This model, he argues, could better serve the modern economy by adapting to ongoing changes and personal learning needs. The value of Staley's thinking lies in his forward-looking approach to educational models, pushing for radical changes that align with the realities of the knowledge economy. His ideas challenge traditional institutions to reconsider their roles and adapt to a system that supports lifelong learning and educational flexibility. This perspective is crucial as it highlights the need for higher education systems to evolve and remain relevant in a rapidly changing global context. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chelip/message

From the late-nineteenth century until the mid-1930s, Vienna was Europe's undisputed powerhouse of ideas. But along with the exhilirating achievements of Freud, Wittgenstein, Mahler, and Klimt, there were also darker forces emerging in parallel which have had their own negative impact on modernity, from organized anti-Semitism to ethnonationalism ideologies. These complex tensions are explored in detail in Richard Cockett's excellent new book, "Vienna: How the City of Ideas Created the Modern World." In this discussion with Robert Amsterdam, Cockett explains how the Habsburg emperor, Franz Joseph, permitted such intellectual flourishing to occur, as the rapid influx of Jews and other groups and their assimilation into the Austrian middle class via commercial and educational success augmented intellectual curiosity, discovery, and experimentation throughout the city.  Viennese café and salon culture also helped to foster schools of thought, as students and professors would furiously debate disputed major questions of the day into the wee hours. The conditions for this fervent intellectual incubation of course was not to last, and we're all aware of what followed. Cockett's thoughtful history of the city in this period highlights what we can learn about encouraging greater intellectual vitality, pluralism, and civilizational development.

Ronald J. Baker is the founder of VeraSage Institute, a reformed CPA and cost accountant who has changed his mind on the value of timesheets and cost accounting. His quest is to bury the billable hour and timesheets.    He is also a radio talk-show Host, The Soul of Enterprise: Business in the Knowledge Economy heard on www.voiceamerica.com.  In this episode, Ron let us know why he changed his mind when it comes to the use of timesheets when setting up pricing. Hear his reasoning about why you should also get rid of timesheets. He offers profound insights, as well as examples and explanations, into how certain pricing value and cost models are appropriate for particular industries.    Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn why many companies in accounting and the automobile industry are switching to subscription pricing Discover how timesheets cause leaders to focus on the wrong metrics, especially in pricing and value setting No timesheets? Is it possible?    “Even if you're a solo entrepreneur, have somebody else help you with pricing because it will put a spine in you and you won't give yourself away.” – Ronald J. Baker   Topics Covered:  02:44 – Talking about four defenses for timesheets in relation to Pricing  04:41 – Taking into consideration the Cost of Goods Sold in setting the price  07:22 – Difference between a metric and measurement type of cost allocations  09:09 – Opportunity Cost and Sunk Cost  10:39 – Is time really considered in setting up pricing?  14:31 – Project management as a way of making better decisions in the future  15:47 – The best advantage of niching your expertise on  18:31 – The start of subscription pricing in the accounting world  21:30 – Insurance classified as subscription pricing  24:08 – What's the best thing about hiring an accounting firm rather than accounting staff for your business  27:48 – His thoughts on cars leaning towards a subscription model  29:50 – Ron's pricing advice   Key Takeaways:  “Keep in mind that I don't need to see timesheets to know your firm's costs. I need to know, I need to see your GL, your income statement and I need to know what your labor and all of that is. I'd much rather track revenue per person or labor cost per person, profit per person in a professional firm because that's a true measurement.” – Ron Baker  “Even if they're just starting out as a sole solo. Don't have any employees. I still think they can put a price on things consistent with their opportunity cost and what they want, willingness to accept and function fine, and this is an integral part of this, as long as they step back after the job is completed and do an after-action review and learn from it.” – Ron Baker   “If you're niched, if you specialize, it's much easier to know what something's going to take once you build up some experience.” – Ron Baker  “A subscription model is a way to lock customers in for life. So in value pricing to Oh you're pricing, not the customer. And this is the subtle difference, but bear with me, you're pricing the relationship and you're pricing the portfolio because you're looking at it as a portfolio rather than a project or just a customer. You're actually looking at the entire portfolio.” – Ron Baker  “We're too busy. I think we confuse being busy with being effective and being profitable. And I'll see a correlation there.” – Ron Baker    People/Resources Mentioned:  Bain & Company: https://www.bain.com/ McKinsey and Company: https://www.mckinsey.com/ Porsche: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche Canvas + Fair: https://drivecanvas.com/ Ed Kless: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edkless TSOE Episode #200: Interview with Reginald Lee: https://www.thesoulofenterprise.com/tsoe/lee2 Lies, Damned Lies, and Cost Accounting: https://www.amazon.com/Lies-Damned-Cost-Accounting-Management/dp/163157065X   Connect With Ron Baker:  VeraSage Institute: https://verasage.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronbaker1 Twitter: https://twitter.com/RonaldBaker Email: ron@verasage.com  The Soul of Enterprise: https://www.thesoulofenterprise.com/   Connect with Mark Stiving: Email: mark@impactpricing.com    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/

This is how I view KNOW-L-EDGE;The KNOW: is to be awareThe ‘L': your awareness leads to LEARN on a continuous cycleThe EDGE: when the above factors are embraced, your EDGE becomes apparent, that advantage.So imagine bringing this into the space of carefully managing available resources and manipulating them to create more value.The knowledge economy is an economic system in which knowledge creation, acquisition, dissemination, and application are the primary drivers of economic growth and development. Unlike traditional economies that heavily rely on producing and exchanging physical goods, the knowledge economy places a significant emphasis on intellectual assets, information, technology, and innovation.Key characteristics of the knowledge economy include:1.    Intangible Assets: Intellectual capital, knowledge, skills, and expertise become essential resources in the knowledge economy. These intangible assets often value more than physical assets like machinery or real estate.2.    Information and Communication Technology (ICT): The widespread use of information and communication technologies plays a crucial role in the knowledge economy. Advanced ICT infrastructure enables the efficient exchange and access to information, fostering innovation and collaboration.3.    Innovation and Research & Development (R&D): Continuous innovation and investment in research and development are critical for the knowledge economy. Companies and countries prioritizing R&D efforts are more likely to develop new products, services, and technologies that can lead to a competitive advantage.4.    Human Capital: The knowledge economy places a premium on education, skills development, and ongoing learning. A well-educated and skilled workforce is essential to drive innovation and adapt to rapidly changing conditions.5.    Globalization and Connectivity: The knowledge economy transcends geographical boundaries. Information can be shared and accessed globally, increasing interconnectedness among individuals, organizations, and nations.6.    Entrepreneurship and Startups: The knowledge economy encourages entrepreneurship and the formation of startups. New ventures often focus on technology-based innovations and disruptive business models.7.    Creativity and Problem-Solving: Creativity and solving complex problems have become highly valued skills in the knowledge economy. Companies and individuals that can develop novel solutions thrive in this environment.8.    Services Dominance: The knowledge economy often shifts the balance from manufacturing industries towards service-based sectors, where knowledge and expertise are vital in delivering value to customers.9.    Flexibility and Adaptability: Rapid changes in technology and knowledge require organizations and individuals to be adaptable and flexible in their approaches and strategies.The knowledge economy has transformed many aspects of society, from how businesses operate and create value to how individuals access information and communicate. It has also led to the rise of digital platforms, online learning, remote work, and the growth of industries centered around data analytics, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology.Countries and regions transitioning successfully to a knowledge-based economy tend to experience higher economic growth, increased productivity, and improved living standards. However, the shift to a knowledge economy also brings challenges, including issues related to data privacy, the digital divide, and the need for lifelong learning to keep up with the fast pace of change.Support the showYou can support this show via the link below;https://www.buzzsprout.com/1718587/supporters/new

This episode features part 1 of our two-part interview with Paul Stephan, author of The World Crisis and International Law—a deeper and more entertaining read than the title suggests. Paul lays out the long historical arc that links the 1980s to the present day. It's not a pretty picture, and it gets worse as he ties those changes to the demands of the Knowledge Economy. How will these profound political and economic clashes resolve themselves?  We'll cover that in part 2. Meanwhile, in this episode of the Cyberlaw Podcast I tweak Sam Altman for his relentless embrace of regulation for his industry during testimony last week in the Senate.  I compare him to another Sam with a similar regulation-embracing approach to Washington, but Chinny Sharma thinks it's more accurate to say he did the opposite of everything Mark Zuckerberg did in past testimony. Chinny and Sultan Meghji unpack some of Altman's proposals, from a new government agency to license large AI models, to safety standards and audit. I mock Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., for panicking that “Europe is ahead of us” in industry-killing regulation. That earns him immortality in the form of a new Cybertoon, left. Speaking of Cybertoonz, I note that an earlier Cybertoon scooped a prominent Wall Street Journal article covering bias in AI models was scooped – by two weeks.  Paul explains the Supreme Court's ruling on social media liability for assisting ISIS, and why it didn't tell us anything of significance about section 230.  Chinny and I analyze reports that the FBI misused its access to a section 702 database.  All of the access mistakes came before the latest round of procedural reforms, but on reflection, I think the fault lies with the Justice Department and the Director of National Intelligence, who came up with access rules that all but guarantee mistakes and don't ensure that the database will be searched when security requires it.  Chinny reviews a bunch of privacy scandal wannabe stories The UK flap over efforts to create a modern version of pen/trap records. Two surveillance camera stories,  one that documents the use of surveillance cameras and facial recognition used to monitor public housing residents. In a rare moment of “check your privilege” one-upsmanship, I chide Chinny for not honoring the needs of public housing residents who value security from crime above their privacy in the laundry room, and another on the more or less inevitable networking of cheap surveillance cameras in the suburbs And finally, a government privacy scandal ripped from the headlines of the 1920s: It turns out that the U.S. Post Office can keep track of what's on the outside of the envelopes it delivers.

On this episode of Free Range, host Mike Livermore is joined by Paul Stephan, a comparative and international law expert at UVA Law and author of the new book, “The World Crisis and International Law: The Knowledge Economy and the Battle for the Future,” recently published by Cambridge University Press. Stephan defines the concept of a knowledge economy as the increasing reliance on conceptual work rather than physical labor as a means of adding value to goods and services. He cites the example of container shipping and its impact on the distribution of goods around the world. Stephan argues that innovation is a driving force in the world economy and that international liberalism has emerged as a means of reducing barriers to talent and scalability, which are essential components of the knowledge economy (00:40-9:22). Stephan discusses how global trade systems like the WTO and GATT were formed to promote international liberalism and reduce barriers to trade. He also discusses the “four freedoms” at the heart of the project of international liberalism, which are freedom of movement of goods, services, capital, and people. The expansion of Western liberal internationalism to other parts of the world after the end of the Cold War is also discussed. In the post-Soviet era, liberal internationalism and free trade institutions were expanded to other parts of the world, like Russia and China, in hopes they would follow (9:23-22:58). Stephan discusses how the benefits of the knowledge economy are not spread evenly across the global economy with local distribution of winners and losers as well (22:58-28:32). In the 80s, Russia was a high human capital country but they chose a resource extraction pathway instead of disruptive innovation and production. For Stephan, China has a longer term perspective while Russia has pursued a strategy of using force in international relations and attempting to exploit divisions in competing polities (28:33-40:59). In the context of climate change, Stephan emphasizes the importance of providing incentives for states to develop innovative technological solutions. He praises the transparency of the Paris Agreement and encourages the sharing of technological breakthroughs while still maintaining incentives to innovate (41:00-49:31). Regarding the future of institutions like the WTO and the European Union, Stephan believes that these organizations can survive through adaptation. The conversation ends on a hopeful note, with the possibility of creating a world where incentives work to induce investment in carbon reduction, and where global cooperation is managed through an evolving but still robust international order.

Information has become a vital form of currency with varying levels of purchasing power. But information supplied in the digital economy has been cheapened with an overabundant supply of fake news, click bait, and social media influence. When faith in the truth is undermined, a culture of misinformation ensues. Christian leaders acting as agents of change must restore the value of wisdom and truth by presenting a biblical worldview in today's knowledge economy.View the Notes for This Teaching For more information on the ministry of GoStrategic, please visit https://www.gostrategic.orgFor information on our upcoming events, please visit https://www.gostrategic.org/events For information about Dr. Simon Mould and the Bridgehead Foundation, please visit http://www.bridgeheadfoundation.org

The Secret To Making Bank In the Knowledge Economy

*Want one piece of business strategy delivered daily to your inbox?* Subscribe here: geraldinecarter.com/subscribe How can CPAs grow their accounting practice when they're over capacity, underutilizing their talents and not providing optimal client support?  Many CPA firms still rely on the hourly billing business model, where the firm has to log more work hours providing services to increase revenue. It focuses on hours and deliverables, not on results and value. A compelling alternative is the subscription business model, where the provider enables serial transformations to the buyer, and continually adds value to the experience. The subscription model creates an opening for predictable, recurring, higher margin revenue.  In this week's episode, I talk about the subscription model with my guest, Ron Baker.  Ron is the founder of VeraSage Institute—the leading think tank dedicated to educating professionals internationally, and is a radio talk-show host on the www.VoiceAmerica.com show: The Soul of Enterprise: Business in the Knowledge Economy. Ron has authored seven best-selling books, including: The Firm of the Future; Pricing on Purpose; Measure What Matters to Customers; and Implementing Value Pricing. His latest book, co-authored with Paul Dunn, Time's Up!: The Subscription Business Model for Professional Firms, was published in November 2022.   In this two-part conversation (episodes 233 and 234), we talk about: Sale prices and multiples How AI can help scale businesses Disney and other big businesses using the subscription model Ways to “plus” your offer How CPA firms can shift to subscription model Highlights: — “We need to stop charging for the means and pricing the end.”  — “Strategy is about what you don't do. It's about the customers you don't have, the services you don't provide. It's all about trade offs. You simply can't be all things to all people.”  — “It's very difficult for a business to disrupt itself.”  — “CPAs have the ability to enable transformations. It's a privilege and a duty to help our customers, to make that impact on their life.” Connect with Ron: Website: https://www.thesoulofenterprise.com/ Ron's book: Time's Up: The Subscription Business Model for Professional Firms https://www.thesoulofenterprise.com/timesup Episode mentions: Subscription Business Model: Build Greater Wealth in Your CPA Firm, with Ron Baker https://businessstrategyforcpas.com/147 Time to Rethink Your Pricing Strategy?, with Ron Baker, Founder of VeraSage Institute https://businessstrategyforcpas.com/081 Breaking Away from the Mainstream Medical Model with Dr. Lewis Weiner https://businessstrategyforcpas.com/206 Selling Summit CPA for Multiples, with Jody Grunden https://www.businessstrategyforcpas.com/225 Hold My Beer and Watch Me Niche, with Josh Lance, CPA https://businessstrategyforcpas.com/212   Book mentions: Uncommon Sense, Common Nonsense by Jules Goddard https://www.amazon.com/Uncommon-Sense-Common-Nonsense-Organisations/dp/1846686024 Built to Sell: Creating a Business That Can Thrive Without You by John Warrillow https://www.amazon.com/Built-Sell-Creating-Business-Without-ebook/dp/B004IYISQW

It focuses on hours and deliverables, not on results and value.

Summary notes: The way we work  has been changing in a major way for a few decades now.  It started with the displacement of manufacturing jobs being shipped overseas in the early 2000s.  Now, knowledge workers are facing an evolution in their field, which includes the death of the way of doing things and the rise of new ways of doing things with automation and artificial intelligence.  A knowledge worker is someone who provides services based on their specialized knowledge. The salaries in that sector of the economy is estimated to be around $30 trillion, and is now being reshaped by the introduction of artificial intelligence.  AI will continue to get smarter, and will soon be able to take on more complex jobs. As AI gets smarter, it is likely to eat up more and more jobs, and in a decade it is difficult to predict just how intelligent it will be. Examples of AI already being used at scale in the present day are social media companies, Teslas, Google, and Apple. AI could also revolutionize the way small and medium sized businesses operate. Using a law firm as an example that spends $4 million a year on salaries to generate $10 million in revenue. In the future, AI could be used to reduce the cost of salaries to a subscription fee of let's say $100,000 a year, creating more profit for the business. AI will be able to process data and provide context in a way that no human can, making it a valuable tool for businesses. However, the transition to AI will also mean the loss of many jobs, though new positions will be created to manage the AI systems. What makes a great CEO of a company or  a great coach of a football team, is their ability to focus and bring out human capital.  The same skill set will be needed for maximizing the minds of AI.   Timestamps 0:02:40 Exploring the Knowledge Worker Economy and Its Impact on Artificial Intelligence  0:05:45 AI Replacing the Role of Content Research Assistants  0:06:58 AI and the Future of Knowledge Work: A Discussion on the Impact of Automation on the Legal Industry  0:11:47 The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Legal Industry 0:13:46 The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Human Evolution 0:15:45 The Impact of Human Adaptability on Investment Strategies 0:19:50 Investment Strategies for Achieving Financial Security

BIO: Ron Baker is the founder of VeraSage Institute—the leading think tank dedicated to educating professionals internationally. He's also a radio talk-show host of The Soul of Enterprise: Business in the Knowledge Economy on Voice America. STORY: Ron partnered with a group of friends and invested $70,000 to start a software company. All the partners had no experience or skills to run the business leading to its failure. LEARNING: Seek out successful people and try to learn from them. Learn from your losses.   “When it comes to business, you've got to have your total skin in the game.”Ron Baker  Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ronbaker1/ (Ron Baker) started his CPA career in 1984 with KPMG's Private Business Advisory Services in San Francisco. Today, he is the founder of https://www.verasage.com/ (VeraSage Institute)—the leading think tank dedicated to educating professionals internationally—a radio talk-show host on Voice America; the show is The Soul of Enterprise: Business in the Knowledge Economy. Ron has authored seven best-selling books, including https://amzn.to/3ITZKhj (The Firm of the Future); https://amzn.to/3O3VXP7 (Pricing on Purpose); https://amzn.to/3Pa0YHo (Measure What Matters to Customers); and https://amzn.to/3c4uXBO (Implementing Value Pricing). His forthcoming book, https://amzn.to/3uP8Dmt (Time's Up!: The Subscription Business Model for Professional Firms), will be published in November 2022. Worst investment everRon partnered with a couple of friends and started a software company. He invested about $70,000 into the company. The group wanted to write a software program to help firms value price. They hired a software engineer and spent a lot of money to get the program going. They were all delusional and believed they were sitting on top of something radical and innovative. Their most significant setback was their lack of skills and experience in building a software company. All the partners also had other jobs and were treating business as a side-hustle, not paying it the full attention it needed. Needless to say, the business wasn't successful. Lessons learnedSeek out people who are successful and try to learn from them. Make sure that you have partners who have skin in the game. Andrew's takeawaysLearn from your losses. If you lose money, at least make sure you gain knowledge from the experience. Never overlook the randomness of success and failure. Focus more on avoiding loss by reducing your risk as much as you focus on growth and success. Actionable adviceDon't be delusional and go into business just to confirm your biases. Keep in mind that business is much more complicated than most people think.
