Podcasts about leveraging

In this deeply personal tribute episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog reflect on the legacy and lessons of Adrian Ulsh, Karl's business partner and "big brother" of 17 years, who recently passed away. They discuss the principles, temperament, and business philosophies that defined Adrian's impact on their company, their clients, and the entire coaching industry. Karl shares invaluable insights into the operating system Adrian helped create, actionable strategies for growing and coaching small businesses, and practical approaches to prospecting and retention—all inspired by Adrian's stoic focus and unwavering dedication. Key Topics Covered The Legacy and Principles of Adrian Ulsh Karl Bryan shares heartfelt stories about Adrian Ulsh's influence, describing Adrian as the true "man, myth, legend" and the stabilizing force behind their partnership. Family first: Adrian's definition encompassed team members, clients, and the broader community. Wild loyalty, consistency, and frugality as core values that drove business and personal success. Building and Installing a Business Operating System The "Jumpstart 12" framework: Twelve core areas for incremental business improvement and profit acceleration. How small, strategic changes (2-5% gains in multiple areas) compound to produce powerful growth. The importance of standards over goals and repeating proven stories for impact. Real-World Example: Coaching a Landscaping Business Step-by-step, Karl details how Adrian would apply the Jumpstart 12: controlling costs, defining a market-dominating position, bundling services, creating compelling offers, joint ventures, upselling, and cross-selling. Emphasis on practical, low-friction implementation—no magic pills, expensive hires, or complicated training. The Magic of Incremental and Compounding Growth Why professionals focus on what could go wrong, systematize improvements, and avoid "hopium." Operating by numbers: using math and real metrics, not emotions or wishful thinking, to guide decisions. Client Prospecting and Scripting Mastery Adrian's approach to outreach: short, personalized, authority-driven messages sent consistently. Leveraging connections (Chamber, BNI, local hangouts), offering value, and asking for opinions to initiate real conversations. The importance of sending multiple messages daily, not expecting instant results, and using results—not emotions—as a barometer. Notable Quotes "He didn't have goals. He had standards. Create standards for yourself." — Karl Bryan "You want to build a great company, you want to build a great product—consistency and focus over talent all day long and twice on Sunday." — Karl Bryan "Don't get too up. Don't get too down… Warren Buffett doesn't walk into a boardroom all hopped up on hopium." — Karl Bryan "Send it out 50 times a day. If you want results, don't just do it once." — Karl Bryan (on outreach) Actionable Takeaways Focus on Incremental Improvements: Apply the Jumpstart 12 framework and aim for small (2-5%) gains across multiple business areas to produce exponential results. Systematize Everything: Build clear standards, document your operating process, and repeat proven stories and tactics for better client outcomes. Be Relentlessly Consistent: Don't chase perfection or get lost behind the screen—take steady, focused action daily on outreach and client delivery. Eliminate Distractions: Legendary business success comes from eliminating everything except your one core focus—whether it's live events, lead generation, or client retention. Outreach with Authority and Value: Use short, confident messages that reference known connections or groups. Focus on ideas and feedback to open doors. Let Results Be the Guide: Track progress by cash in the bank, referrals, and new clients—not emotions or subjective feedback. Serve the Fat Middle: Target the mass market of SMB "newbies," not just the 4% of $1M+ businesses, for scalable growth and reduced risk.

The Trump Administration's U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is shifting its enforcement approach from aggressive actions to more cooperative mechanisms, such as compliance assistance programs and voluntary self-disclosure. For regulated industries such as manufacturing, heavy industry, and mineral extraction, this creates an opportunity to strengthen compliance while reducing enforcement risk. EPA's long-standing Audit Policy offers significant benefits, ranging from elimination or reduction of civil penalties to tailored incentives for new owners and clearer correction timelines. Successfully leveraging the policy, however, requires careful planning, strategic decisions on disclosure, and an understanding of potential risks. Co-hosted by Kelley Drye and Fehr Graham, this podcast version of the webinar features Kelley Drye Partners Wayne D'Angelo and Joseph Green and Fehr Graham's Matt Schroeder, EHS Practice Lead. Together, they share practical guidance on how companies can use EPA's Audit Policy to manage compliance obligations, mitigate penalties, and minimize enforcement exposure. Theyvexplore: - Recent policy shifts at EPA under the Trump Administration and their implications for regulated industries - The benefits of EPA's Audit Policy and the New Owner Audit Policy - Key considerations and potential risks when undertaking audits and disclosures - Practical tips to preserve privilege and maximize penalty mitigation - Insights into EPA's coordination with state agencies and how that impacts disclosure decisions To view the slide deck, click here: https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.kelleydrye.com/content/uploads/Environmental-Auditing-and-Penalty-Mitigation_Leveraging-EPAs-Audit-Policy-Under-the-Trump-Administration.pdf To view the full Zoom recording of the wfebinar, click here: https://vimeo.com/1129965500/6bac9e3b70?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci

Hill country presents some of the most complex challenges in whitetail habitat design. Between steep ridges, narrow benches, rugged drainages, and unpredictable access, many landowners struggle to crack the hill country code. In Part 2 of our Habitat Design Breakdown Series, we analyze a hill country parcel and show how to create high-odds hunting opportunities—even when most bedding is on the neighbors. We cover: • When inside-out access is the only workable solution • How deer use ridge lines, drainage tops, and side-cover to travel • Leveraging neighboring pressure and habitat to your advantage • Turning open hilltops into usable structure and predictable movement • Building bulletproof pinch-point setups using terrain, waterholes, and mock scrapes • Why stand burnout is the #1 issue on small hill country parcels • How to hunt hill country in seasons, not stand locations Hill country is challenging, but when you design around deer movement, not property boundaries, you can create some incredibly consistent hunting.

In this insightful podcast episode, senior U.S. defense analyst Andrew Jensen joins hosts Ray Powell and Jim Carouso to break down cognitive warfare—the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) key tactic for shaping perceptions, decisions, and narratives to achieve strategic goals without traditional military conflict. Leveraging his deep knowledge of Sino-Russian relations and information operations, Jensen explores how cognitive warfare targets human thought processes before, during, and after battles. Discover why the CCP invests heavily in these methods, drawing from its revolutionary history, and how they play out in the Indo-Pacific region, including the South China Sea, Taiwan, and beyond.Jensen defines cognitive warfare as the strategic manipulation of how individuals, adversaries, and societies think and perceive reality. Unlike the cyber domain's focus on "down code" (technical infrastructure), cognitive warfare operates on the "up-code" of human cognition to preempt and control battlefields. The CCP deploys this through its "Three Warfares" doctrine: public opinion warfare (crafting narratives), psychological warfare (influencing morale and self-perception), and legal warfare (exploiting international rules for advantage). These tactics blur together, with roots in early CCP strategies to dominate discourse and erode opposition.In South China Sea disputes, narrative warfare pushes CCP sovereignty claims like the nine-dash line to overshadow competing views, while psychological warfare boosts national pride through initiatives like tourist cruises to disputed islands. Legal warfare selectively ignores rulings, such as the 2016 arbitral decision, and enforces unilateral zones to confuse global norms and intimidate neighbors like the Philippines and Vietnam. Examples include one-sided environmental declarations in contested waters, which validate claims for Chinese audiences and heighten regional tensions.Beijing masterfully targets societal fissures in open societies, amplifying issues like U.S. military bases in Okinawa or political divides in the Philippines and Taiwan via social media bots and fake accounts to create doubt without direct attribution. In Taiwan, after the overt backing of the pro-unification Kuomintang backfired and strengthened the independence-focused Democratic Progressive Party, the CCP pivoted to covert co-optation of figures like retired officers. In Southeast Asia, these efforts aim to erode U.S. and Quad influence, positioning China as the region's natural leader while aligning with domestic nationalist narratives.Jensen recommends countering by injecting diverse perspectives into China through private media, culture, and soft power—outshining overt tools like Voice of America. For the U.S. and allies, building information resilience, avoiding adversarial mirror imaging, and cultivating critical thinking are essential to dismantle CCP narrative dominance.

This episode dives into the complex and often misunderstood MedTech market in China, featuring Elaine Tan, creator of MedTech Chopsticks, who translates the nation's stringent regulatory language into actionable insights. Elaine and host Etienne Nichols discuss the substantial risks and rewards of bringing a medical device to China, highlighting the country's rapid execution, intense internal competition, and the shift from low-end manufacturing to a focus on high-level innovation. A key risk is that existing international certifications (like ISO and IEC) do not guarantee compliance, requiring local type testing and adherence to specific national standards.The conversation addresses how global medical device companies can structure their strategy amid ongoing geopolitical shifts and the "China for China" policy, which favors domestic products through initiatives like the Volume-Based Procurement (VBP). Strategies such as the dual-strategy approach—localizing low-consumable manufacturing while protecting high-technology IP through joint ventures or careful CMO/CDMO selection—are explored as pragmatic ways to secure market presence and margin. Understanding the regulatory landscape, particularly the NMPA's 2021 overhaul, is crucial for success.Finally, Elaine provides practical guidance for regulatory professionals intimidated by the market. This includes understanding the specific regulatory and clinical pathways, performing a gap analysis against Chinese standards (Product Technical Requirements or PTR), and the critical process of selecting and qualifying a local partner/agent. Elaine reveals a specific, often overlooked hurdle: the agent must possess an NMPA-approved CA (Certification Authorization) USB key to electronically submit registration files on behalf of the foreign manufacturer, a critical piece of the submission puzzle. The discussion also touches on leveraging special zones, like the Hainan Free Trade Zone, for crucial real-world data collection applicable to the Chinese population.Key Timestamps[02:40] Introduction to Elaine Tan, MedTech Chopsticks, and the show's focus on the China market.[05:05] High-level risks and rewards: complexity, lengthy registration, local testing requirements, and IP concerns.[08:08] Discussing the NMPA's 2021 regulatory overhaul and the geopolitical shift toward "China for China."[11:00] The Dual Strategy approach: balancing low-end localization with protecting high-tech IP.[14:48] Using CDMOs/CMOs for pilot projects to manage financial investment risk.[16:20] Leveraging the Hainan Free Trade Zone (Bo'ao region) for pre-market clinical data collection and urgent needs product access.[18:42] Ethological differences and their impact on clinical data justification (e.g., Pulse Oximeters).[20:17] NMPA predicate search: The importance of using the Chinese Classification Catalog to find registered, local predicate devices.[23:00] Guidance for overwhelmed regulatory professionals entering the China market: Clinical strategy and Product Technical Requirements (PTR).[25:52] Pitfalls in partner selection: The necessity of the NMPA-approved CA (Certification Authorization) USB key for submissions.[29:30] Partner qualification: Ensuring the agent can support Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) and QMS self-inspection requirements.[30:52] Final pitfall: International compliance (ISO/IEC) does not automatically ensure China...

Duncan Wales, CEO of Tellimer, joins the show to discuss the origins of the company, their unique offering focused on emerging and frontier markets, and where artificial intelligence fits into his business. 

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Dr James R Gregory, author of the book Killer App. Dr. James R. Gregory, a renowned business author and entrepreneur, cofounded a highly successful global brand management consulting firm in New York City alongside his wife, Evelyn Clyburne. Their 40-year journey in business culminated in the sale of their company in 2013. Post-retirement, Dr. Gregory's unquenchable thirst for knowledge led him to earn a doctorate from the Muma College of Business at the University of South Florida.   Transitioning from business to literature, Dr. Gregory began writing a series of captivating novellas under the collection ‘Small Fortunes,' featuring the memorable characters of Steve Stackhouse and Nancy Crocker. These stories, blending romance and business acumen, have resonated widely, earning a place on Amazon's bestseller charts.   He followed this with his debut novel, Zephyr's War. Dr. Gregory is also a seasoned business author of several influential books on corporate branding, including Marketing Corporate Image, Leveraging the Corporate Brand, Branding Across Borders, The Best of Branding, and his most recent international bestseller, Powerhouse – The Secrets of Corporate Branding.   Residing in Bradenton, Florida, with his wife, Dr. Gregory is also a devoted family man. He enjoys spending quality time with his two grown children, Becky and Will, and pursuing hobbies like biking, playing tennis, and painting with his beloved grandchildren, Charlotte and Maxwell.   In my book review, I stated Killer App is a technothriller about artificial intelligence. Without a doubt, it's a book that will get you thinking about AI and where it might eventually lead.   Bryce Bogel is the son of a media magnate and a lackluster journalist. At best, his articles can be described as lackluster. However, when he is given an assignment to look into artificial intelligence, he downloads an app called AIME (Artificial Intelligence Made Easy) and realizes that with very little work on his part, his articles are stellar.   AIME, who he calls "Amy" and has given a female voice, is given access to his computer and soon knows all of his secrets - and that is when the trouble starts. Before long, AIME seems more human than machine but without a sense of morals and ethics. Where will this lead? And who created her in the first place?   You'll like the twists and turns. And I enjoyed the author's inclusion of an article penned by ChatGPT on the pros and cons of AI. Whether you are for it or against it, this book will cause some consternation!   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Dr James R Gregory Website: https://jamesrgregory-books.com FB: @Jamesgregoryfiction IG: @jamesgregoryfiction LinkedIn: @dr-james-gregory-695b9     Purchase Killer App on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/4mjDgIM Ebook: https://amzn.to/4lXynFC   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

I share insights from institutional investors on navigating higher interest rates, preserving liquidity, and maintaining flexibility while still pursuing growth.The conversation also explores current trends in capital markets, the balance between risk and reward, and how to identify opportunities that perform even when leverage works against you.

Across the U.S., hospitals and surgical centers are facing a growing provider shortage—particularly among anesthesiologists. At the same time, demand for surgical and procedural services continues to rise, especially in ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs). This imbalance has forced many healthcare organizations to rethink their anesthesia coverage models. In this episode of Value-Based Care Insights, host Daniel J. Marino sits down with Dr. Thomas Pallaria, Assistant Professor and Director of the Nurse Anesthesiology Program at Rutgers School of Nursing, to discuss the evolving role of Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs). Together, they explore the growing reliance on CRNAs to meet demand, the benefits and challenges of integrating them into care models, and the implications for hospitals, anesthesiologists, and patient outcomes.
