What happens when the world of GLP-1s collides with the operating room? Today, we're diving into the new era of obesity care. Hosts·       Matthew Martin, trauma and bariatric surgeon at the University of Southern California/Los Angeles General Medical Center (Los Angeles, California) @docmartin2·       Adrian Dan, bariatric and MIS surgeon, program director for the advanced MIS bariatric and foregut fellowship at Summa Health System (Akron, Ohio) @DrAdrianDan·       Crystal Johnson Mann, bariatric and foregut surgeon at the University of Florida (Gainesville, Florida) @crys_noelle_·       Katherine Cironi, general surgery resident at the University of Southern California/Los Angeles General Medical Center (Los Angeles, California) @cironimacaroniLearning objectives1.          Understand the evolving role of OMMs in bariatric surgical practice·       Recognize how widespread GLP-1 and dual-incretin therapies have reshaped patient presentations, expectations, and referral patterns.·       Appreciate current evidence comparing surgery to GLP-1 therapy, including the JAMA Surgery study out of Allegheny Health (2025), noting:o   Superior weight loss with bariatric surgery (~28% TBWL vs ~10% with GLP-1s)o   Higher health-care utilization and cost in GLP-1–treated patients.·       Frame OMMs not as alternatives but as complementary tools within a chronic disease model when treating obesity.2.           Review pharmacologic classes and their expected efficacy·       Surgeons should be able to articulate the mechanisms, efficacy, and limitations of:o   GLP-1 receptor agonists – incretin-based satiety; 5–12% TBWL.o   Dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists – most potent agents; 15–22% TBWL.o   Sympathomimetics – norepinephrine-driven appetite suppression; 3–7% TBWL.o   Combination agents (bupropion-naltrexone, phentermine-topiramate) – 5–12% TBWL depending on regimen.o   Emerging therapies – retatrutide, maritide, oral GLP-1s, with promising TBWL in phase 2 trials3.          Apply OMMs strategically in the preoperative phase·       Integrate OMMs without compromising surgical eligibility—OMM-related weight loss does not negate the indication for surgery.·       Counsel patients that medication response does not equal disease resolution; surgery remains the most durable intervention.·       Manage delayed gastric emptying and aspiration risk:o   Pause weekly GLP-1 or dual agonists for ≥1 week pre-op (longer if symptomatic).o   Collaborate closely with the anesthesia/OR teams·       Screen for nutritional depletion before surgery, especially protein deficits exacerbated by appetite suppression.·       Navigate insurance barriers that may paradoxically approve surgery but deny medication continuation.4.          Implement postoperative OMMs safely and effectively·       Establish criteria for OMM introduction:o   Typical initiation at 6–12 months, once the diet stabilizes and the physiologic curve flattens.o   Earlier initiation (4–6 weeks) may be appropriate in pediatric or select high-risk populations.·       Recognize altered pharmacokinetics after sleeve and bypass:o   Injectables may be preferred due to altered absorption of oral agents.·       Prevent postoperative nutritional compromise:o   Monitor protein intake, hydration, and micronutrient status (including iron, B12, and fat-soluble vitamins).o   Titrate doses slowly to minimize nausea/vomiting that can precipitate malnutrition.·       Frame OMM use as a tool for disease persistence (plateau/regain), not as a marker of failure.5.          Identify systems-level barriers and the implementation of coordinated care·       Understand insurance inconsistencies—coverage for surgery is often not paired with coverage for long-term medical therapy.·       Clearly document disease persistence and medical necessity when appealing denials.·       Avoid fragmented care: establish shared-care pathways between bariatric surgery, obesity medicine, and primary care.·       Use patient-centered language emphasizing complementary therapy, not hierarchy or competition between surgery and medications.6.          Counsel patients ethically and accurately within a chronic disease model·       Set expectations: sustained success requires surgery + medication + behavioral change.·       Educate patients that postoperative OMM use does not imply surgical failure.·       Normalize long-term multimodal management of obesity, analogous to diabetes or hypertension models.*Sponsor Disclaimer: Visit goremedical.com/btkpod to learn more about GORE® SYNECOR Biomaterial, including supporting references and disclaimers for the presented content.  Refer to Instructions for Use at eifu.goremedical.com for a complete description of all applicable indications, warnings, precautions and contraindications for the markets where this product is available.

Morning routines can become one more place we feel behind, especially when life shifts. In this episode, Michael and Megan talk with bestselling author Hal Elrod about The Miracle Morning After 50 (co-authored with aging expert Dwayne Clark). Along with the SAVERS basics (Silence, Affirmations, Visualization, Exercise, Reading, and Scribing) they explore the “after 50” focus on healthspan, purpose, flexibility, and overlooked free practices.Hal also shares the common derailers and how to rebuild momentum with small steps that stick. Whether you're in midlife or building sustainable habits now, this conversation will help you craft a morning ritual that fits real life and grows with you.Memorable Quotes“The thing to remember is that what we affirm repeatedly becomes our reality, right? And so it's [helpful to affirm] what you're committed to, why it's important, and what you're gonna do to get there.”“And if you think about it, we are an extension of the earth… And so, for me, I try to live my life as closely in alignment with nature as I possibly can.”“My belief on purpose is that it's something we get to make up as we go along. We can have more than one purpose because I think people put a lot of pressure on purpose… You get to make it up. That's the best part about purpose. And you can try it on for a week, and you're like, ‘You know what? I wanna try a different purpose,' or ‘I wanna have two or three.' It's fluid, it's fun, it's joyful.”“If somebody took a peek at your schedule, does it really reflect what you say is most important in your life—whether that's health or family, or happiness, or whatever it is?”“You live, on average, about five years after you retire from purpose. But if you can keep the purpose going, it doesn't matter if you're retired or not retired, or working for a nonprofit or working for a for-profit. It doesn't matter as long as you're making a contribution.”“As we get older, the needs of our bodies, our minds, our hearts—those things shift. And if we're trying to just sort of do the same old thing that we've done that maybe worked for us 20 years ago, or even 10 years ago, it doesn't always produce the same results.”Key TakeawaysMake Your Morning Ritual Doable. The goal isn't a perfect routine, but a sustainable one that adapts as life changes.Healthspan Matters. Living longer isn't the point if your quality of life declines. Daily practices can support both longevity and vitality.Start Small and Let It Build. Hal's challenge: wake up 10 minutes earlier and pick one practice to focus on. Then, expand gradually.Consistency Beats Intensity. Miss a day? Don't spiral. Hal's advice: “Never let one missed day turn into two.”Don't Over-Engineer It. Build a routine that works when the stars don't align, especially when travel, stress, or caregiving hits.Nature is a Free Advantage. Morning light, time outside, and grounding practices can offer real benefits without expensive biohacks.Purpose Protects Your Life. Especially after retirement or major transitions, meaning and contribution are essential for thriving.ResourcesThe Miracle Morning After 50 (Hal Elrod & Dwayne Clark)The Miracle Morning (Hal Elrod)miraclemorning.comhalelrod.comWatch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/o-T03QPI6CwThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

CardioNerds (Dr. Shazli Khan, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, and Dr. Shiva Patlolla) discuss the management of patients post‑heart transplantation with Dr. Shelley Hall from Baylor University Medical Center and Dr. MaryJane Farr from UTSW. In this comprehensive review, we cover the physiology of the transplanted heart, immunosuppression strategies, rejection surveillance, and long-term complications including cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) and malignancy. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds intern Dr. Bhavya Shah. Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values.

Pearls The Denervated Heart: The donor heart is surgically severed from the autonomic nervous system, leading to a higher resting heart rate (90-110 bpm) due to loss of vagal tone. Because the heart relies on circulating catecholamines rather than neural input to increase heart rate, patients experience a delayed chronotropic response to exercise and stress. Importantly, because afferent pain fibers are severed, ischemia is often painless. Rejection Surveillance: Rejection is classified into Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR), which is T-cell mediated, and Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR), which is B-cell mediated. While endomyocardial biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis, non-invasive surveillance using gene-expression profiling (e.g., AlloMap) and donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is increasingly utilized to reduce the burden of invasive procedures. The Infection Timeline: The risk of infection follows a predictable timeline based on the intensity of immunosuppression. The first month is dominated by nosocomial infections. Months one through six are the peak for opportunistic infections (Cytomegalovirus, Pneumocystis, Toxoplasmosis) requiring prophylaxis. After six months, patients are primarily at risk for community-acquired pathogens, though late viral reactivation can occur. Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV): Unlike native coronary artery disease, CAV presents as diffuse, concentric intimal thickening that affects the entire length of the vessel, including the microvasculature. Due to denervation, patients rarely present with angina; instead, CAV manifests as unexplained heart failure, fatigue, or sudden cardiac death. Malignancy Risk: Long-term immunosuppression significantly increases the risk of malignancy. Skin cancers (squamous and basal cell) are the most common, followed by Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder (PTLD), which is often driven by Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) reactivation. Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Patlolla 1. What are the unique physiological features of the transplanted heart? The hallmark of the transplanted heart is denervation. Because the autonomic nerve fibers are severed during harvest, the heart loses parasympathetic or vagal tone, resulting in a resting tachycardia (typically 90-110 bpm). The heart also loses the ability to mount a reflex tachycardia; thus, the heart rate response to exercise or hypovolemia relies on circulating catecholamines, which results in a slower “warm-up” and “cool-down” period during exertion. 2. What are the pillars of maintenance immunosuppression regimen? The triple drug maintenance regimen typically consists of: Calcineurin Inhibitor (CNI): Tacrolimus is preferred over cyclosporine. Key side effects include nephrotoxicity, hypertension, tremor, hyperkalemia, and hypomagnesemia. Antimetabolite: Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) inhibits lymphocyte proliferation. Key side effects include leukopenia and GI distress. Corticosteroids: Prednisone is used for maintenance but is often weaned to low doses or discontinued after the first year to mitigate metabolic side effects (diabetes, osteoporosis, weight gain). 3. How is rejection classified and diagnosed? Rejection is the immune system’s response to the foreign graft and is categorized by the arm of the immune system involved: Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR): Mediated by T-lymphocytes infiltrating the myocardium. It is graded from 1R (mild) to 3R (severe) based on the extent of infiltration and myocyte damage. Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR): Mediated by B-cells producing donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) that attack the graft endothelium. It is diagnosed via histology (capillary swelling) and immunofluorescence (C4d staining). Diagnosis has historically relied on endomyocardial biopsy. However, non-invasive tools are gaining traction. Gene Expression Profiling (GEP) assesses the expression of genes associated with immune activation to rule out rejection in low-risk patients. Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA (dd-cfDNA) measures the fraction of donor DNA in the recipient’s blood. Elevated levels suggest graft injury which can occur in both ACR and AMR. 4. What is the timeline of infectious risk and how does it guide prophylaxis? Infectious risk correlates with the net state of immunosuppression. < 1 Month (Nosocomial): Risks include surgical site infections, catheter-associated infections, and aspiration pneumonia. 1 – 6 Months (Opportunistic): This is the period of peak immunosuppression. Patients are at risk for PJP, CMV, Toxoplasma, and fungal infections. Prophylaxis typically includes Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole (for PJP/Toxo) and Valganciclovir (for CMV, dependent on donor/recipient serostatus). > 6 Months (Community-Acquired): As immunosuppression is weaned, the risk profile shifts toward community-acquired respiratory viruses (Influenza, RSV) and pneumonias. However, patients with recurrent rejection requiring boosted immunosuppression remain at risk for opportunistic pathogens. 5. How does Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV) differ from native CAD? CAV is the leading cause of late graft failure. Unlike the focal, eccentric plaques seen in native atherosclerosis, CAV is an immunologically driven process causing diffuse, concentric intimal hyperplasia. It affects both epicardial vessels and the microvasculature. Because of this diffuse nature, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is often technically difficult and provides only temporary palliation. The only definitive treatment for severe CAV is re-transplantation. Surveillance is critical and is typically performed via annual coronary angiography, often using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to detect early intimal thickening before it is visible on the angiogram.

This episode of EM Pulse dives into one of the most stressful scenarios in the ED: the febrile infant in the first month of life. Traditionally, a fever in this age group has meant an automatic “full septic workup,” including the dreaded lumbar puncture (LP). But times are changing. We sit down with experts Dr. Nate Kuppermann and Dr. Brett Burstein to discuss a landmark JAMA study that suggests we might finally be able to safely skip the LP in many of our tiniest patients. The Study: A Game Changer for Neonates Our discussion centers on a massive international pooled study evaluating the PECARN Febrile Infant Rule specifically in infants aged 0–28 days. While previous guidelines were conservative due to a lack of data for this specific age bracket, this study provides the evidence we've been waiting for. The Cohort: A large pool of infants across multiple countries. The Findings: The PECARN rule demonstrated an exceptionally high negative predictive value for invasive bacterial infections. The Big Win: The rule missed zero cases of bacterial meningitis. Defining the Danger: SBI vs. IBI The experts break down why we are shifting our terminology and our clinical focus. Serious Bacterial Infection (SBI)  Historically, this was a “catch-all” term including Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), bacteremia, and meningitis. However, UTIs are generally more common, easily identified via urinalysis, and typically less life-threatening than the other two. Invasive Bacterial Infection (IBI)  This term refers specifically to bacteremia and bacterial meningitis. These are the “high-stakes” infections the PECARN rule is designed to rule out. Dr. Kuppermann notes that we should ideally view bacteremia and meningitis as distinct entities, as the clinical implications of a missed meningitis case are far more severe. The HSV Elephant in the Room One of the primary reasons clinicians hesitate to skip an LP in a neonate is the fear of missing Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) infection. Low Baseline Risk: While the overall risk of HSV in a febrile infant is low, the risk of “isolated” HSV (meningitis without other signs or symptoms) is even rarer. Screening Tools: Most infants with HSV appear clinically ill. Clinicians can also use ALT (liver function) testing as a secondary screen – transaminase elevation is a common marker for systemic HSV. Clinical Judgment: If the baby is well-appearing, has no maternal history of HSV, no vesicles, and no seizures, the risk of missing HSV by skipping the LP is exceptionally low. Practical Application: Shared Decision-Making This isn’t just about the numbers—it’s about the parents. “Families don’t mind their babies being admitted… They do not want the lumbar puncture. It is the single most anxiety-provoking aspect of care.” — Dr. Brett Burstein The PECARN “Low-Risk” Criteria:  (Remember, this rule applies only to infants who are not ill-appearing.) Urinalysis: Negative Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC): ≤ 4,000/mm³ Procalcitonin (PCT): ≤ 0.5 ng/mL The Bottom Line: If an infant is well-appearing and meets these criteria, physicians can have a nuanced conversation with parents about the risks and benefits of forgoing the LP, while still admitting the child for observation (often without empiric antibiotics) while cultures brew. Key Takeaways The “Well-Appearing” Filter: If an infant looks ill, the rule does not apply. These patients require a full workup, including an LP, regardless of lab results. Meticulous Physical Exam: Assess for a strong suck, normal muscle tone, brisk capillary refill, and any rashes or vesicles. History is Key: Always ask about maternal GBS/HSV status, pregnancy or birth complications, prematurity, sick contacts, and any changes in feeding, stooling or activity. Procalcitonin: PCT is the superior inflammatory marker for this rule. If your facility only offers traditional markers like CRP, the PECARN negative predictive value cannot be strictly applied. In the words of Dr. Kuppermann: “If you don’t have it, for God’s sakes, just get it! ALT to Screen for HSV: While not part of the official PECARN rule, our experts suggest that significantly elevated liver enzymes should raise suspicion for systemic HSV. Observe, Don’t Discharge: Being “low risk” does not mean the infant goes home. All infants ≤ 28 days still require admission for 24-hour observation and blood/urine cultures.

Nearly four years ago, I recorded an episode about why hairdressers should be recommending professional retail. And yet, here we are, still having the same conversation. The fundamentals haven't changed, but the world we're operating in absolutely has. Inflation, online shopping, influencers, and changing client behaviour… all of it has added new layers to old objections.In this episode, I break down why so many stylists still avoid recommending retail and, more importantly, what's really sitting underneath those objections. I walk through the most common excuses I hear, grouped into skill issues, mindset issues, fear issues, and systems issues and explain why teaching product knowledge or scripts alone will never fix the problem.This isn't about being pushy or “selling.” It's about professionalism, service, responsibility, and ultimately the sustainability of your business. If you're a salon owner or a stylist who wants stronger client relationships, better results, and a more profitable salon, this is a conversation you can't keep avoiding.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00] Intro: Retail version 2.0: what's changed[01:58] Same salon, same clients, very different retail results[02:43] Why scripts and commissions don't solve retail[03:22] The three real reasons hairdressers should recommend retail[06:49] The 4 categories behind all retail objections[07:39] Skill issues: “I don't know how” and product knowledge[09:40] Mindset issues: “It's not my job”[12:09] Fear issues: The fear of being pushy or transactional[20:06] Systems issues and retail culture in salons[26:30] Final thoughts Want MORE to help you GROW?

In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, your hosts, Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams tackle one of the biggest threats to dealership growth heading into 2026… staff retention and leadership breakdowns! "Losers allow their emotions to dictate their actions, but winners choose which emotion to use to get the desired result." - LA Williams Dealerships are spending more money than ever recruiting, hiring, and onboarding… only to lose good people faster than they can replace them. Sean and LA break down why the old dealership playbook is no longer working, what today's salespeople and BDC professionals actually value, and how leadership habits inside the store are either building loyalty, or pushing talent out the door. "If your best people don't see a future with you, they'll build one somewhere else." - Sean V. Bradley They also explore how modern tools like AI and automation are changing the market, but why technology alone won't fix a culture problem. This episode shines a light on the leadership mistakes that quietly create turnover, the importance of real training beyond basic sales tactics, and what it takes to create a dealership environment where top performers actually want to stay. If you're a dealer, GM, manager, or team leader trying to build a stable, high-performing team in 2026 and beyond… this episode is a must-listen. At NADA? So are WE!

Don't miss out on LA's NADA Session on Feb. 5th at 12:30 PM PST in Las Vegas!     Boosting Dealership Performance in 2026: Mastering Employee Retention and Leadership Key Takeaways Employee retention is more about leadership and culture than recruitment. Effective training that encompasses skill, professional, and personal development is crucial. Social proof through online reviews significantly impacts recruitment and retention success. In the rapidly evolving automotive industry of 2026, dealerships are challenged not only to attract but also keep quality workers amidst technological and cultural shifts. As laid bare in a candid discussion from the Millionaire Car Salesman podcast, industry veterans Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams delve into the core problem areas and present innovative strategies for car dealerships. They assert that solving retention issues boils down to fortifying leadership, improving workplace culture, and ensuring clear communication. The Changing Landscape of Recruitment and Retention A New Era of Employee Expectations Today's employees desire more than just financial compensation; they seek transparency, flexibility, and a positive workplace environment. Bradley emphasizes, "Employees value time flexibility and transparency, especially the younger generation. They won't tolerate a toxic culture." As such, dealerships need to adapt their recruitment strategies and workplace conditions to align with these expectations. This means offering not just monetary incentives, but valuing employees' time, ensuring work-life balance, and recognizing individual achievements. This shift reflects broader workplace trends where employees are increasingly unafraid to leave unsatisfactory jobs for better opportunities. Building an All-Inclusive Training Strategy Comprehensive training is the backbone of employee satisfaction and retention. Bradley illustrates the importance of multi-faceted development by saying, "If you're not training them on product knowledge, on the road to the sale, on Internet sales… you're not doing enough." Today's sales landscape demands more than traditional selling skills; it requires proficiency in CRM systems, social media, and AI technologies. By setting a high standard and providing adequate resources and training, dealerships can create an empowered workforce capable of exceeding sales goals. Culture and Leadership: The Heart of Employee Retention Nurturing a Positive Workplace Culture Workplace culture is the invisible force that significantly influences employee retention. Williams and Bradley highlight how recognition and respectful treatment can transform workplace morale. Bradley candidly shares, "Happy employees equal happy customers." When employees feel valued and recognized, their dedication and loyalty grow, which in turn positively influences customer experiences. To foster such a culture, dealerships should focus on team-building and personal development alongside professional growth. Celebrating personal milestones and achievements through social media or team meetings fosters a sense of community and belonging. Providing emotional and practical support not just ensures employee well-being but results in enhanced performance and customer satisfaction. Fixing Leadership Gaps to Drive Success A crucial step in improving employee retention is addressing leadership deficiencies. As Williams asserts, "Top salespeople don't automatically make great leaders… Leadership development is paramount." Promoting based purely on sales success can lead to leadership gaps; instead, focus should be on developing comprehensive management skills amongst promising employees. Managers should embrace roles that include mentorship and coaching, striving for emotional intelligence, and delivering fair criticism in a constructive manner. Regular one-on-ones and feedback sessions should be structured not just for performance reviews, but for mutual growth and progression. Creating clear career paths for every role reflects a transparent approach, ensuring employees see their future potential within the company. Reputation, Social Proof, and Retention The Power of Social Proof Through Online Reputation In today's digital landscape, online reviews extend beyond customer opinions and into employment evaluations. Many dealerships remain unaware of how platforms like Glassdoor and Indeed are crucial in shaping perceptions of potential hires. Bradley stresses the importance of these review sites, stating, "People research your store before they apply." Negative employment reviews can deter top talent from joining a dealership. Proactively managing these reviews can enhance a dealership's appeal, suggesting a focus on reputation management alongside customer service. Positive employment reviews reinforce trust and attract quality candidates, ultimately aiding in achieving retention goals and enhancing overall dealership reputation. Aligning Brand and Employment Messaging The alignment of external brand communication with internal employee experience creates a strong market position and fosters employee loyalty. Bradley champions this by advocating for consistent positive messaging on dealership social media, celebrating employee milestones and achievements. This tactic not only strengthens workforce morale but also attracts potential employees by spotlighting a vibrant, supportive workplace culture. Intertwining these aspects — adopting modern recruitment practices, refining leadership qualities, and enhancing online reputation — sets a solid foundation for enduring success amidst the complexities of 2026. Following the Buick slogan "When better automobiles are built, Buick will build them," progressive dealerships will attract and retain top-tier talent by building better workplaces first. The future belongs to dealerships that not only adapt to change but forge change, beginning within their own ranks.     Resources + Our Proud Sponsors: ➼ The Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group: Join the #1 Automotive Sales Mastermind Facebook Group with over 29,000 automotive professionals worldwide.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. We are seeing several top MBA programs continuing to release interview invites for Round 2. Harvard released all their Round 2 interview invites last week. Imperial Business School is scheduled to do the same during this upcoming week. We then discussed our new interview prep tool,  Clear Admit's MBA Interview simulator.  This simulator is designed to offer a realistic interview experience for the majority of the top MBA programs, and provide detailed feedback. It is trained on Clear Admit's extensive catalogue of interview resources including our interview archive and interview guides. Graham highlighted MBA webinar events that are on the horizon that Clear Admit is hosting. The first webinar series of events is for deferred admissions candidates who are currently completing their first degrees. These are scheduled for the next two Wednesdays. The second series is for MiM programs and are scheduled for February 24 and 25. Signups for both these series are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham then highlighted the recent roll out of the 2026 US News rankings for online MBA programs. Indiana /  Kelley continues to lead the way. Graham then noted the announcement from Georgetown / McDonough regarding their shortened MBA program for those who have completed a Masters in Management program. Graham addressed two recently published MBA admissions tips that focus on the interview experience. The first focuses on the five most common MBA admissions interview questions and the second explores some of the more unique b-school interview offerings. Graham then noted a Fridays from the Frontlines piece focused on a student at Duke / Fuqua studying the intersection of climate risk and business. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected two ApplyWire entries and one DecisionWire entry: This week's first MBA admissions candidate has a 3.87 GPA and works at MBB, and they plan to return - as they are sponsored. They have a 327 GRE score and appear to be a very decent candidate. This week's second MBA applicant has a lower GPA of 3.38, but they had to work through university. We think they should target a few more M7 MBA programs. This week's final MBA candidate is deciding between a full-ride at Florida / Warrington and a $70k offer from CMU / Tepper. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.

Why do forecasts look great right up until they don't? If your Rev Ops strategy stops at the point of sale, you aren't managing revenue—you're managing blind spots. Courtney Baker, David DeWolf, and Mohan Rao kick off a new series on Commercial Operations.

Dr. Dhar explains "Dhar's Conjecture" and how gaining a "Roger Federer edge"—just a 54% win rate—can compound into an unbeatable competitive advantage.

Welcome to episode #1021 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a time when strategy is often confused with forecasting and certainty is mistaken for rigor, the work of Roger Martininsists on a more demanding discipline: making clear, integrated choices under uncertainty. Named the world's #1 management thinker by Thinkers50 in 2017, Roger is a writer, strategy advisor, and the former Dean at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto, where he served for fifteen years and reshaped how management education engages with real-world complexity. Over decades, he has advised CEOs at companies including Procter & Gamble, Lego, Ford, American Express, Verizon, and Steelcase, helping leaders move beyond abstract ambition toward actionable, coherent strategies. His thinking has long been a personal touchstone for navigating difficult, high-stakes business problems, and he remains my go-to guide when confronting complexity that resists easy answers… a familiarity reinforced by his return here after previous appearances. Before academia, he spent thirteen years at Monitor, serving as co-head of the firm and grounding his thinking in the realities of corporate decision-making. His newly updated book, Playing To Win, Expanded With Bonus HBR Articles - How Strategy Really Works co-authored with A.G. Lafley, remains one of the most influential strategy texts of the modern era, distilling strategy into a set of five integrated choices about where to play and how to win, supported by capabilities and systems that reinforce those decisions. Across thirteen books and more than thirty Harvard Business Review articles, Roger has explored integrative thinking, democratic capitalism, governance and the design of business itself, consistently challenging leaders to resist false tradeoffs and simplistic answers. His work confronts contemporary issues head-on: the misuse of AI as an answer machine rather than a thinking partner, the hollowing out of education into ideological extremes, the erosion of institutional trust and the persistent illusion that the future must resemble the past. Through it all, his argument is steady and clear: strategy fundamentals endure, and superior managerial effectiveness begins with disciplined thinking, principled choice, and the courage to commit. If you're not following his free Substack, you reall should. It's always an honor to spend tie with Roger. Enjoy the conversation… Running time: 58:39. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

On this episode of Possible, Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger sit down with Amjad Masad, founder and CEO of Replit, to explore how AI is fundamentally changing who gets to build software and what that means for work, creativity, and human agency. Masad traces his journey from growing up in Jordan teaching himself to code and connects it to his love of video games which helped inspire him to build a platform that turns natural language into working software. The conversation spans everything from why gaming mindsets make better builders, to how CEOs are rediscovering hands-on creation, to why “vibe coding” is the next form of literacy and why computational thinking is more important than syntax mastery. The conversation also digs into the future of AI agents, long-running autonomous workflows, and what it means to design environments for machines rather than humans. They also confront harder questions about jobs, fear, regulation, and society's responsibility during a cognitive industrial revolution. The episode ultimately reframes AI not as a replacement for human creativity, but as a force that can return people to a more entrepreneurial, expressive, and meaningful way of life.
