Podcasts about large scale

In this episode, we have Rohit Garewal, CEO of Object Edge and a veteran of 30 years solving large‑scale business problems in finance, insurance and retail. Rohit explains that every for‑profit enterprise is fundamentally trying to maximize either revenue or margin, and that the key to doing so lies in aligning people, processes and technology. His firm helps customers turn fragmented, legacy data into AI‑ready assets, then builds custom applications that embed AI into core workflows, allowing companies to continuously optimize operations rather than “start‑stop” improvement cycles. Rohit stresses the rising importance of a “business‑engineer” mindset—high IQ, high EQ, and solid technical chops—to translate strategy into concrete, data‑driven actions.  LinkedIn: rohit-garewal Website: rohit-garewal Check out our CEO Hack Buzz Newsletter–our premium newsletter with hacks and nuggets to level up your organization.

Most teams, people and companies don't have a motivation problem - they have a design problem.In this episode I sit down with Ricardo Lopes Costa, founder and CTO of Funifier from Brazil and the author of "The Fantastic Engagement Factory: how to motivate people on a large scale with gamification". We uncover how gamification, psychology, and smart feedback loops can turn apathetic workflows into performance engines people actually want to use. Ricardo's company, Funifier, has worked with global brands like Coca-Cola, HP, Banco do Brasil, and Caixa Econômica Federal, helping them turn dry KPIs into dynamic challenges that spark human motivation — often with billion-dollar impact. Ricardo shares how:A small experiment with locked online lessons accidentally sparked his obsession with engagement.A single leaderboard turned learning into a movement across Brazil.Caixa's “Tamo Junto 9Bi+” initiative became the world's largest gamification case — driving over $1 billion USD in additional profit in just months.Recognition and belonging often outperform money when it comes to performance.Even small businesses — from cupcake stands to ice-cream shops — can gamify experiences to make people participate more.Why the future of leadership lies in designing human experiences, not just managing numbers.“Engagement is not a bonus — it's an asset, just like money or technology.” — Ricardo Lopes CostaIf you're a leader, HR professional, or entrepreneur who wants to build teams that care, perform, and grow — this episode will show you how to make motivation measurable.Key TakeawaysMotivation is designable — when you treat engagement like a system, not a feeling.Recognition > rewards: appreciation drives sustained effort more than money.Start small: pick one unmotivated area, personalize it, make it visible, make it fun.Emotional design is the missing layer in most transformation and culture projects.Everyone — even small businesses — can use gamification principles to spark engagement.

Millions of private gun owners are living in fear that they will be disarmed and left defenceless by legislation in the making. In this interview with BizNews, Jonathan Deal, the founder of Safe Citizen, tells Chris Steyn that the proposed legislation would be “unenforceable” - and warns that it “would invite public disobedience on a large scale”. Deal says the proposed amendments amount to “saying self-defense is not a valid reason to possess a firearm”. Commenting on the possible agenda behind the amendments, Deal charges: “They want to have every single private person, including the security industry, hobbled and disarmed as much as possible so that they can basically do what they like. We all know in history that a disarmed populace is at the complete and utter mercy of the government.” He further warns that “they will turn millions of currently law-abiding South Africans into criminals….There are millions of South Africans who are more scared of being murdered by criminals than they are scared of what the police will do to them - even if the police have the will and the resources to enforce such a ridiculous notion.”

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-fifteenth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by MAJ Marc Howle, the Brigade Senior Engineer / Protection Observer-Coach-Trainer, and MAJ David Pfaltzgraff, BDE S-3 Operations OCT, from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are two senior members of JRTC that most units coordinate with but rarely see in-person: MAJ Jacquelin Marrero and MAJ Brandon Kilthau. MAJ Marrero is the G-4 Sustainment Officer at the Joint Readiness Training Center's headquarters. MAJ Kilthau is the S-3 Operations Officer for Plans / Exercise Maneuver Control. Plans/EMC plan, resource, and supervise the rotations from start to finish. (Think of the man behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz.)   This episode focuses on the often-overlooked but decisive phase of reception, staging, onward movement, and integration (RSOI) at JRTC. The discussion highlights recurring friction points as units arrive in Torbia—ranging from poor Soldier discipline and lack of acclimatization to the Louisiana heat, to wasted time at staging areas instead of conducting pre-combat checks (PCCs), pre-combat inspections (PCIs), and final system checks. The key message is mindset: leaders and Soldiers must treat RSOI as the beginning of combat, not downtime before the “real” fight. Units that operationalize RSOI—using the time to validate communications, establish sustainment accounts, rehearse movement, and begin integrating attachments—set the conditions for success. Those that view it as a last break or administrative hurdle often find themselves behind before entering the box.   The conversation also underscores the importance of coordination with the JRTC G4 to ensure prepositioned (“pre-po”) equipment is properly drawn, maintained, and matched to operational requirements. Many units fail to establish essential accounts for Class I, III, IV, V, and VIII supplies until arrival, creating preventable shortfalls. Best practices include using RSOI to rehearse convoy movements, validate communications architecture with available support, and build relationships with enablers or foreign attachments before moving to the training area. Leaders are encouraged to deliberately involve NCOs in these processes to extend command oversight, enforce discipline, and maximize use of time. Ultimately, the episode frames RSOI as more than an administrative requirement: it is the first tactical problem of the rotation, and units that succeed here carry momentum into the fight.   Part of S13 “Hip Pocket Training” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on Russia's large-scale missile and drone attack in Ukraine.

Europe's tech playbook has evolved — from mastering consumer internet and telecoms to now confronting the most ambitious challenge yet: the green transition. In a compelling Summit address, Natalie Tydeman of Kinnevik framed climate tech not just as a hot trend, but as the defining commercial and industrial transformation of our time.Despite political headwinds and shifting corporate rhetoric in some markets, Europe's climate policy support remains strong. More importantly, we're finally witnessing a turning point: climate tech is no longer about sacrificing economics for sustainability. As Natalie put it, the new breed of green solutions are both commercially viable and environmentally necessary.What's needed from founders and investors alike? Patience, resilience, adaptability, and creativity. The capital profiles of these companies often look very different from classical tech — they're more capital intensive, and success often depends on building coalitions of aligned investors.Natalie emphasized two core themes where Kinnevik is most focused:Green Supply ChainsEnergy TransitionThese areas are where the visibility of future revenue streams is strongest — crucial for unlocking project financing and credit facilities. Joint development agreements, government-backed low-cost financing, and project equity play a far bigger role than in SaaS or consumer models.Europe might lag in some tech metrics, but in climate it's starting to pull ahead:~50% of EU energy is now renewable vs. under 20% in the US84% of consumers express a desire to shop more sustainablyGovernment and blended finance are now key backers of green venturesThis ecosystem makes it possible to build large, climate-positive businesses in Europe without sacrificing scale or returns.Natalie closed by reaffirming Kinnevik's conviction: the green transition isn't just a moral imperative — it's a multi-decade economic opportunity. The fund is staying highly selective, but deeply committed to supporting the few ventures that can deliver climate impact and venture-scale returns in tandem.“We're not looking for the most startups — we're looking for the ones that will matter most.”Investing in Climate Requires Patience — and CreativityFinancial Ecosystems & Policy: Europe Has a TailwindThe Takeaway: Selective but Bold

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-fourteenth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by MAJ Marc Howle, the Brigade Senior Engineer / Protection Observer-Coach-Trainer, and MAJ David Pfaltzgraff, BDE S-3 Operations OCT, from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are two senior sustainers within JRTC: MAJ Amy Beatty, the Task Force Executive Officer from Task Force Sustainment (Combat Sustainment Support Battalion / Brigade Support Battalion) and MAJ Adeniran Dairo, the BDE S-4 Sustainment Observer-Coach-Trainer from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ).   This episode on logistics and sustainment in LSCO highlights the recurring friction points' units face when bringing their formations to JRTC. One of the central themes is the lack of clearly defined roles and responsibilities between the brigade S4 and the SPO. While the S4 is doctrinally responsible for sustainment planning and the SPO for executing those plans, experience gaps, personality differences, and poor coordination often blur the lines. This creates confusion over who produces critical products, such as the sustainment paragraph of the OPORD or synchronization matrices, leading to missed opportunities in planning and execution. The discussion stresses the need for deliberate conversations between S4s and SPOs—ideally starting at home station—to clarify duties, build trust, and ensure planning outputs are synchronized with maneuver requirements.   The conversation also emphasizes the importance of running estimates and the broader framework of the “5 Ls of Logistics”: LOGSTATs, LOGSYNC matrices, LOGSYNC meetings, LOGCOP, and LOGPACs. Too often, junior officers and commodity managers fail to update their estimates as operations progress, leading to mismatched forecasts, overestimations, or shortfalls that erode trust between maneuver and sustainment elements. This disconnect compounds when formations apply blanket percentage increases at each echelon, inflating requirements far beyond reality. Solutions discussed include dual reporting between FSCs and BSBs to balance individual consumption data against bulk stocks, prioritizing survivability over efficiency in sustainment operations, and treating the transition from bulk to individual commodity distribution as a battle drill rehearsed at home station. Ultimately, survivability, trust, and disciplined sustainment practices are framed as decisive factors in ensuring brigades can fight and endure in LSCO.   Part of S13 “Hip Pocket Training” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

This conversation with Ali Waks Adams was soul feeding for me- I love talking to people who are passionate about helping to solve food insecurity, and Ali is on the board of Mid Coast Hunger Prevention Program (MPHCC) in my hometown of Brunswick, Maine, and she's sharing some of the things that they're doing that have been working to feed the people of Maine. (I said Maine, not just Brunswick - Ali says they feed people from 14 out of the 16 counties in Maine!) We talked a little about the people who volunteer (over 500!) and the people receiving from MCHPP as well. We both cried a little...MCHPP opened in 1983, and has grown in strides every year; to serving 1.2 MILLION meals in 2024, and now have a professional community kitchen to offer to local businesses and a 2nd building to hold donated food, just acquired 2-3 years ago. MCHPP receives extra foods from several farmers, and Growing to Give, where I volunteered, offering their clients fresh, healthy food to add to the shelf-stable foods from grocery stores. I've delivered several times from some of the roles I've held through work and volunteering. MCHPP hosts regular fundraisers - there's an exciting one coming up on September 24th that's put on by local chefs and with donated food that's organized by Ali! Ali moved to Brunswick from NYC and Philadelphia, and in order to meet her neighbors, she started volunteering at MCHPP, and fell in love with the people she served. She is a professional private chef; her business is called Balaboosta, and she has sure made a name for herself! Balaboosta's tagline is "a boutique catering company in Mid Coast Maine, sometimes it's fancy, sometimes it's cozy, always delicious." She is very passionate about feeding people, and it shows in everything she does!You can learn all about MCHPP at their website: https://www.mchpp.org/MCHPP is on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/midcoasthungerpreventionprThey're on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/MidCoastHungerPreventionProgramAnd on Linkedin here: Send me a message!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

Interview with Rory Quinn, President & CEO of Yukon MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/yukon-metals-cseymc-launching-major-drill-program-in-2025-7124Recording date: 10th September 2025Yukon Metals Corporation (CSE:YMC) represents a compelling early-stage copper and gold exploration opportunity positioned to capitalize on favorable market conditions and strong preliminary drilling results across three strategic properties in Canada's Yukon Territory.The company's flagship Birch project has delivered encouraging validation of its geological model, with scarn mineralization encountered in every drill hole across a substantial 750-meter strike length. The consistency of this mineralization is particularly significant for early-stage exploration, indicating a robust and extensive system with substantial discovery potential. Recent drilling has intersected up to 46 meters of continuous scarn mineralization between 250-300 meters depth, suggesting significant vertical continuity. Preliminary visual assessment by Dr. Quinton Hennigh, a highly respected geologist, indicates potential copper grades of 1.5-2% with accompanying gold content, though final assay results are pending.Complementing the copper focus at Birch, the Star River property presents exceptional high-grade silver and gold potential. Surface sampling has yielded remarkable results including up to 11,000 g/t silver and 101 g/t gold, with visible galena mineralization containing 1,800 g/t silver and 20% lead. Current drilling targets shallow mineralization at approximately 150 meters depth, supported by an 800-meter gravity anomaly that correlates with known high-grade surface showings.A critical value driver for Yukon Metals lies in its systematic approach to operational scaling through permit advancement. The company currently operates under Class 1 permits that limit operations to 10 people and restrict drilling scope. However, management is actively pursuing Class 3 permits that would dramatically expand capabilities to 50 people on site with virtually unlimited drilling capacity for a 10-year period. CEO Rory Quinn emphasized this represents a significant value inflection point, stating the permits will create a huge amount of value and enable much larger exploration programs.The company maintains a strong financial foundation with $11 million raised in April, supporting approximately 9,000 meters of drilling across the three properties. Management operates a lean structure with only a three-person Vancouver office, ensuring capital allocation is directed primarily toward exploration activities. This disciplined approach maximizes shareholder value while maintaining operational flexibility.Market conditions appear increasingly favorable for copper exploration, driven by electrification trends and supply constraints. Quinn noted strong institutional interest and the presence of generalist funds and US capital, describing current conditions as "the best vibe I've felt here in a long time" in what "really does feel like a bull market." The company's stock price has reflected this positive sentiment, advancing from $0.60 to the $0.80-$0.90 range following positive drilling results.The management team brings valuable experience and strategic relationships within the mining finance community. Key personnel include Keith Neumeyer, who helped structure the company and brings committed investor networks, and Patrick Burke, former head of capital markets at Canaccord Genuity. Quinn's background with Wheaton Precious Metals provides institutional market familiarity that should prove valuable as projects advance.With pending assay results, permit advancement progress, and favorable market conditions for strategic commodities, Yukon Metals appears well-positioned to deliver value through systematic project advancement and discovery potential across its diversified property portfolio.View Yukon Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/yukon-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

This is the third episode of a series focused on the findings of the Horizon Europe project CAPABLE (ClimAte Policy AcceptaBiLity Economic framework). The aim of this podcast series is to provide an overview of the CAPABLE project and draw attention to some particularly relevant findings. In this third episode, we dive into a fascinating survey carried out in the context of the CAPABLE project that explores how citizens across the European Union view the feasibility of climate change policies. We focus on social and contextual factors affecting behavioral change and support for specific climate policies. The guest is Keith Smith. Keith is a senior researcher at ETH Zurich. His research analyses the incentives shaping why institutions, policymakers and citizens around the world will (or will not) work towards creating environmental public goods, such as mitigating climate change, or improving air quality. Along with colleagues at the University of Groningen, Keith is a co-lead WP2 in the HEU Capable project on social acceptability and feasibility. CAPABLE is a research project funded by the Horizon Europe Programme under grant agreement No 101056891. It provides robust, resilient and actionable recommendations for the design of socially and economically acceptable climate policy measures for 2030 and beyond, examining experiences, policy design and implementation solutions to identify strategies that can enable a successful transition. Views and opinions expressed are those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union. More info on CAPABLE: https://capableclimate.eu/

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-seventh episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by the Senior Medical Operations Officer Observer-Coach-Trainer for the Task Force Sustainment (BSB / CSSB), CPT Victor Velez on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are two senior medical professionals, SFC Daniel Booker and MSG Bradley Robinson. SFC Booker is the Medical Operations NCO OCT for Aviation TF (CAB) and MSG Robinson is the Senior Enlisted Medical Advisor OCT for TF Sustainment (BSB / CSSB).   This episode explores the evolving landscape of medical operations in large-scale combat operations (LSCO), emphasizing both clinical care and medical logistics under austere, high-tempo conditions. The discussion begins by highlighting training shortfalls in areas such as prolonged field care, expectant casualty care, and the degradation of trauma skills due to lack of high-acuity exposure. The panel underscores the importance of standardizing Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) and incorporating behavioral health (BH) into austere environments. Updated triage doctrine—including a two-pass system and the mass casualty management model—is discussed as a key development, reinforcing that triage is not just a medical responsibility but a leader's responsibility across the formation.   Observed trends during recent rotations were highlighted, such as the motivation and preparedness of young medics, the resurgence of fieldcraft (digging in, concealment, basic weapons handling), and the movement toward analog systems to reduce complexity. Leader certification and talent management emerge as recurring themes, emphasizing the need for medics to integrate operational planning and communicate effectively with maneuver leaders. Best practices include early development of the medical common operating picture (MEDCOP), effective use of LTP, cross-functional training opportunities, SOP development, and creative training under constraints like limited drill periods. The episode closes with guidance on improving air and ground casualty evacuation operations, promoting distributed medicine concepts, and empowering medics as force multipliers—not just clinicians, but warfighters.   Part of S05 “Beans, Bullets, Band-Aids, Batteries, Water, & Fuel” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.
