Today, John, Les, and special guest Clayton Seigle, Managing Director of Energy Practice at Beacon Global Strategies, take stock of the most significant oil supply disruption in recorded history — and why prices haven't fully reflected it, yet.Since the outbreak of war with Iran six months ago, flows through the Strait of Hormuz have swung wildly, forcing emergency draws on the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve and triggering sweeping demand cuts by Chinese refiners. The crisis has also exposed the hard limits of energy diversification: while Saudi Arabia could redirect exports through pre-built bypass pipelines, countries like Iraq and Qatar have few alternatives to Hormuz.How long can the market absorb the disruption before prices rise sharply? How low is President Trump willing to let the Strategic Petroleum Reserve fall? To what extent has President Trump's been able to shape market expectations to actually suppress the price of oil, and is that sustainable? The conversation also examines Ukrainian strikes on Russian refining capacity and the massive oil deal President Trump announced with Venezuela.Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.@lestermunson@johnclipsey@ClaySeigleLike what we're doing here?

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.We were live from iCapital Connect's conference in Phoenix, where we sat down with some of the industry's leaders across asset management and wealth management.We spoke with Ava Mallin, Managing Director, US Private Wealth Solutions at Ardian.Ava brings a distinctive approach to how she works with the wealth channel. She emphasized that asset managers should treat capital as a client's legacy rather than “just dollars.” Speaking of legacy, Ardian is a firm with a rich legacy. The firm was born in 1996, when AXA's Chairman, Claude Bébéar, chairman of AXA, asked Dominique Senequier to create a private equity arm for the insurer. And so AXA Private Equity was born. The firm's first fund launched with a $100M French Buyout fund and two external clients.Today, Ardian stands tall as a giant in private markets, spanning asset classes and managing over $200B AUM.As a firm that provides investment solutions and customized strategies, Ardian thinks deeply about the breadth and depth of its relationships with LPs. Ava brings this perspective to bear in the wealth channel, which was evident in our conversation.Ava shared how she brings a uniquely human perspective to fundraising and partnering with the wealth channel. She believes managing money is managing emotion, which is critical for GPs to understand how wealth advisors manage their relationships with clients.We had a fascinating conversation, covering: The importance of understanding the human and emotional side that it takes to build enduring partnerships with LPs.Why US LPs have a growing interest in diversification and want exposure to Europe.Why secondaries is a partnership business with LPs and GPs.The importance of educating the wealth channel on private markets.Why Ardian prefers the term “evergreen” over “semi-liquid.” Why GPs should work with the wealth channel only if they have true commitment to the channel and top-down support from senior leadership.BioAva Mallin joined Ardian in 2022. She is responsible for Private Wealth relationships in the US. Prior to joining Ardian, she spent seven years at Carlyle in their Private Wealth group. She is based in New York.Thanks, Ava, for sharing your wisdom, expertise, and passion for how you approach working with the wealth channel and your focus on EQ as part of building relationships with advisors that enable them to treat their clients' capital as legacy.

Episode 234: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-auditManual LinkedIn outreach might get you a trickle of leads, but scaling it consistently - without burning your network or getting flagged - is another story entirely. Most business owners send the wrong messages to the wrong people, then give up after one follow-up, leaving real revenue on the table.In this episode, Toby Blatchford Tagg teaches us how to turn LinkedIn into a predictable lead-generation machine.

How can actuaries assess mortality and morbidity risk when historical experience may no longer fully reflect a changing climate environment? In this episode of the Research Insights Podcast, Dale Hall, Managing Director of Research at the Society of Actuaries Research Institute, welcomes Carlos Arocha, FSA, SCR, and Jérôme Crugnola-Humbert, SAV, IA, authors of the report Quantifying Mortality and Morbidity Impacts from Climate Risks: A Practical Framework for Decision-Making. Carlos and Jérôme discuss how climate hazards, population exposure and vulnerability can translate into life and health outcomes and ultimately affect actuarial decision-making. They explore why historical mortality and morbidity data alone may be insufficient in a changing risk environment, how climate-related variables can be incorporated into mortality modeling, and what a case study examining France, Italy and Spain can teach actuaries about interpreting forward-looking scenarios. The conversation also examines the "streetlight effect" and the "quantitative fallacy," along with practical considerations for life and health insurers seeking to better understand and prepare for climate-related risks. Listen to the episode and explore the full report, accompanying actuarial toolkit, and additional research from the Society of Actuaries Research Institute by visiting SOA.org and navigating to the Catastrophe & Climate research area.

Payments companies were among the first to experience the pressures that hit the fintech scene and the broader software industry over the past couple of years. Now activity is reviving, with several big deals. What's changed, and which other parts of the sector stand to thrive amid ongoing disruption? Jason Gurandiano, Head of U.S. Technology Banking and Global Head of Fintech Banking, is joined by colleagues Matt Thomas and Asif Ahsan for the second part of their analysis.Key pointsPayments companies are trading at a discount relative to cashflow and are likely to see strong M&A activity.Agentic commerce and stablecoin are potential game-changers in payments.Strategics are targeting companies with a hardware component alongside proprietary data as moats against AI.Digital assets and trading platforms are among the subverticals with strongly favorable signals.Chapter markers:Introductions [00:06]Joe Coletti introduces the second part of a discussion led by Jason Gurandiano, Head of U.S. Technology Banking and Global Head of Fintech Banking, with Matt Thomas, Managing Director in Technology Investment Banking, and Asif Ahsan, Managing Director in Technology M&A.Payments strength [00:46]Activity in the payments sector has picked up meaningfully in the past three months. The space has become more global and less fragmented, as companies seek to own whole steps of the value chain. Many payments companies are trading at a discount and this is an area of likely continuing M&A activity.Impact of agentic commerce and stablecoin [04:34]Agentic commerce is set to transform payments, and will drive transactions to ensure security against fraud. Stablecoin is becoming institutionalized and could prove disruptive to traditional banking when paired with consumers' digital wallets. Information services outlook [08:13]Information services companies' success rests on whether their data is truly proprietary or can be easily replicated. A combination of proprietary data and hardware is increasingly valued by companies looking to do M&A.Subvertical verdicts [10:17]Summing up their views, participants are broadly bullish about payments and financial software. Views on market structure, information services, and disruptive financial services are mixed, with some players facing greater risks. Signs are good for digital assets, crypto, and tokenization, with strong innovation and maturing players.
This week, Jack Sharry talks with Andrew Ang. Andrew is a leading voice in quantitative investing, factor research, tax-efficient portfolio construction, and AI. He spent 15 years as a professor at Columbia Business School and 10 years as Managing Director at BlackRock, where he led work across factors, sustainability, and investment solutions. Today, he is the Co-Founder of Tau Balance, where he applies technology, tax expertise, and AI to wealth management. Andrew talks with Jack about factor investing and tax-efficient portfolios, why taxes can significantly affect what investors actually keep, and how advisors can think beyond pre-tax returns when building portfolios. Andrew also shares his vision for the "self-driving portfolio," an agentic investment strategy where AI agents can specialize across asset classes, challenge one another's assumptions, and continuously learn. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (01:37) - Andrew's background and career journey (03:47) - The evolution of factor-based investing (06:16) - Andrew's transition from academic research to portfolio management (07:40) - Taxes as the biggest factor in investment returns (11:35) - The vision behind the "self-driving portfolio" (17:11) - Using investment policy statements as guardrails for AI (18:34) - Andrew's interests outside of work Quotes "Taxes constitute the biggest wedge between returns that you seem to participate in, or that are reported, and the returns that you actually get to keep." ~ Andrew Ang "The really big gains come when we don't just substitute something for AI, but completely change the way that we work with it." ~ Andrew Ang "Where the agents disagree, those are the most interesting and important areas for investing. That's probably where alpha lies, or where we actually have to be very careful to construct robust portfolios." ~ Andrew Ang Links Andrew Ang on LinkedIn Tau Balance BlackRock SEI Ang Research Enhanced U.S. Large Cap ETF (ANGU) Connect with our hosts LifeYield Jack Sharry on LinkedIn Jack Sharry on Twitter Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify LinkedIn Twitter Facebook
In this episode, Pete and Julie welcome Andrew ‘AG' Gadomski, Managing Director at Aspen Analytics and host of ‘Reciprocity with AG', for a candid conversation on AI governance, cybersecurity, compliance, and the future of work. Andrew shares why HR is becoming an increasingly important attack surface, how fake applicants and social engineering are changing recruiting risk, and why HR leaders need to build much stronger partnerships with cybersecurity, legal, and technology teams. The conversation also explores the need for better workforce planning, clearer job architecture, stronger vendor scrutiny, and a more practical understanding of how AI will impact both work and workers. Andrew highlights why the future of work is not just about adopting AI, but rather governing it, securing it, and making sure innovation strengthens the workforce instead of exposing it.

Most accounting firm owners assume the big, PE-backed players have an unbeatable head start on AI. In this state-of-the-industry conversation, Joey Kinney, Virtual CFO at Anders, pinch-hits for Tom Wadelton and sits down with Adam Hale, Partner at Anders, for an unscripted look at where AI is actually changing accounting advisory work right now. Fresh off a live Basis AI conference with the top 100 firms in the room, Adam explains why smaller, faster-moving firms may have more room to close the gap than anyone expects. From there, the conversation covers what happens when clients start showing up with their own AI-built financial analysis, why tracking 50 KPIs is the same as tracking none, how the COO role is quietly folding into the CFO seat, and why Adam believes the traditional CPA firm staffing pyramid is about to flip into a diamond. They also get into an honest conversation about trust: what it actually takes for a young, AI-fluent advisor to be believed in the room. If you're trying to figure out how AI changes your firm's pricing, staffing, and advisory model over the next year, this episode is a working session, not a keynote. ▶️ Why Smaller CPA Firms Have the AI Advantage with Joey Kinney and Adam Hale.Episode resources: ● Website: https://anderscpa.com/ ● If you have questions or would like to be a guest on the show, email us at mcpasuccessshow@anderscpa.com ● Check out the Virtual CFO Playbook Course: https://anderscpa.com/virtual-cfo-services/vcfo-playbook/Quotes:Adam Hale: "One of the biggest takeaways is they're not very far ahead either, in this entire space.

Jeannette talks to Mark “Fish” Fisher to uncover his extraordinary journey from a 16-year-old bear mascot at Alton Towers to the boardroom as Chief Development Officer for Merlin Entertainments. Mark opens up about taking a business to a £6 billion IPO, the harsh realities of navigating global crises like the COVID-19 pandemic, and the critical importance of staying fiercely authentic in rigid corporate environments. Packed with candid insights on surviving the scrutiny of public markets, managing a workforce across 24 countries, and making agonizing welfare decisions during severe economic disruptions, this conversation provides an essential roadmap for scaling a business while keeping your team grounded. You'll Learn Why: Staying authentic is a competitive advantage; corporate facades fall apart under the intense scrutiny of public markets and analysts. Building an in-house creative team drives product quality and innovation faster than relying solely on external agencies. Maintaining transparent communication and rapid decision-making across global teams protects your company culture during sudden economic stops. Transitioning from a hands-on executive to an advisory or board role requires checking your ego and trusting the talent you've nurtured. Whether you're a founder, CEO, small business owner, entrepreneur, startup leader or executive, these lessons will help you navigate massive scale and build a resilient organization.
In this episode of Compliance Champions, Delphine Forma speaks with Torstein Braaten, Chief Compliance Officer at Canada Stablecorp and Managing Director at Eskay Capital, about Canada's distinctive approach to digital asset regulation.Rather than regulating crypto-assets themselves, Canada has built its framework around the concept of the crypto contract, a unique legal approach that shapes everything from licensing and custody to market structure and investor protection.Together, they explore how Canada's regulatory framework has evolved, why understanding a firm's business model is just as important as understanding the assets it offers, and how the market is preparing for the next phase of tokenization.
Most people don't experience a country… they experience its reputation. Long before a flight is booked or a business deal is considered, a story has already landed in your mind. A headline. A search result. A clip that went viral. A warning someone repeated with total confidence. And once that story sticks, it starts to feel like the place itself.So, let's test it. When you picture Egypt, what shows up first? Pyramids. Pharaohs. Ancient tombs. Maybe a biblical story, or maybe a recent news headline? Egypt is one of the most famous places on earth, but that fame can flatten it into a single image, a single idea, a single shadow. In this episode, nation branding and strategic communications leader Lamia Kamel unpacks how reputations are formed and how they can be changed, especially now that discovery runs through search, social, and AI. If you've ever realized you “knew” a place before you actually understood it, this conversation might rewire the way you think about perception.Listen For:04:28 What Misconceptions Do Travelers Have About Egypt?05:37 What Is the Real Egypt Beyond Pyramids and Stereotypes?08:10 How Should Egypt Use Digital Marketing to Attract Travelers?11:43 Which Social Media Platforms Are Most Popular in Egypt?17:49 How Is PR in Egypt Different From Western PR?

Cass sits down with Angela McCoy, Managing Director at May River, a private equity firm investing in lower middle market industrial businesses. Angela shares her journey from leveraged finance at Bank of America through the 2008 financial crisis, to a family office, and ultimately to May River, where she started remotely during the pandemic while pregnant. They dig into why Angela believes sector-focused strategies are winning in today's PE landscape, how May River approaches portfolio management, and why the "private equity = cost cutters" stereotype couldn't be further from her reality. She also opens up about the power of peer networks, building a "personal board of advisors," and why 10-year-old Angela wanted to be a marine biologist.
What will artificial intelligence mean for the future of real estate and land brokerage? In this episode of The Landowner Insider, Kasey Mock sits down with Robby Butler, Managing Director of Tucker Capital Group and Owner/Partner of Y Street Capital, and Ben Meadows, Financial Advisor with U.S. Capital Wealth, LLC, to explore how AI could change the way land and real estate are researched, evaluated, marketed, bought, and sold. Rather than simply asking whether AI will replace people in real estate, they look at how technology could give landowners, buyers, investors, and brokers access to more property information—and the ability to analyze it faster than ever before. From property research and due diligence to identifying opportunities, risks, and highest-and-best-use potential, the conversation explores how AI could change decision-making throughout a real estate transaction. They also discuss why experienced agents and brokers may become more valuable as technology improves, what happens to real estate businesses that fail to adapt, and how the role of the broker could evolve as AI becomes more capable. In this episode: How AI could change real estate and land brokerage Using AI for property research and due diligence Identifying opportunities and risks in land transactions How landowners could evaluate highest-and-best-use potential What AI means for buyers, sellers, and investors Why experienced agents could become more valuable How technology could expose weak real estate business models The changing role of land brokers How AI could influence real estate investing What the future of property transactions could look like Whether you're a landowner, investor, buyer, seller, land broker, or real estate professional, this conversation offers a look at how AI could reshape the way property decisions are made.

Amid the SaaSpocalypse panic, fintech companies remain relatively resilient, protected by the specialized and highly-regulated nature of the financial market. But investors are looking for strong retention and growth, including AI-driven revenues. Jason Gurandiano, Head of U.S. Technology Banking and Global Head of Fintech Banking, is joined by colleagues Matt Thomas and Asif Ahsan to analyze what will set the winners apart from the competition.Key PointsPublic and private markets in fintech remain robust.While affected by AI disruption, the sector has been more resilient than the broader software market.Investors are looking for high retention and growth, including AI-driven revenues.Wealthtech and Insurtech are attracting most interest and are set to see strong M&A.Opening and introductions [00:06]Jason Gurandiano, Head of U.S. Technology Banking and Global Head of Fintech Banking, summarizes RBC's 11th annual fintech conference. It attracted the biggest engagement of the past five years: 430 delegates and 740 investor interactions. He introduces Matt Thomas, Managing Director in Technology Investment Banking, and Asif Ahsan, Managing Director in M&A.Hunt for investments [02:15]Fintech innovation is accelerating. Private investors are actively seeking new investments; public investors are striving to understand the impact of AI on current investments. The winners will be companies demonstrating high gross retention as well as growth that is at least partly driven by AI features.Fintech's resilience [7:37]The specialized and highly-regulated nature of finance is providing fintech with some protection from the disruption affecting software more broadly. But there is a bifurcation, with successful companies achieving robust trading multiples and perceived losers trading near cyclical lows.Embedding offers insulation [9:10]Fintechs that are strongly embedded with their end customers have most protection, and have the opportunity to go on the offense with new products.Areas of opportunity [11:36]Wealthtech and Insurtech are attracting most interest: M&A is likely to remain strong in these subverticals over the next 12 to 18 months. Capital markets software has strong interest, but incumbents face threats from customers with their own AI budgets.

DSA conducts research, organizes educational events, and promotes policies that prioritize public welfare and digital sovereignty.Adrian Wall is Managing Director of the Digital Sovereignty Alliance (DSA), where he is a leading voice on blockchain policy, digital asset regulation, and financial innovation. Adrian recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about the Clarity Act, the DSA's mission and much more.The conversation in this episode highlights the immense benefits that statutory regulation would bring to the American digital asset industry, emphasizing that legal clarity and consistency are vital to unlocking hesitant investment capital. Adrian explains how formal rules of the road would trigger an innovation renaissance, forcing traditional banks to improve customer service to compete with faster, more reliable digital alternative ecosystems.Furthermore, a global perspective is explored, noting that while stablecoin adoption is driven by existential hyperinflation in developing nations, a proliferation of U.S. dollar-backed stablecoins ultimately solidifies America's geopolitical position and economic power projection tools.Adrian Wall's work bridges government, academia, and industry to advance responsible frameworks that promote innovation, transparency, and financial inclusion. Adrian directs DSA's Learning Team, developing blockchain education programs for policymakers, universities, and financial institutions, and has advised on major bipartisan legislative efforts including the GENIUS Act and the Clarity Act.A frequent speaker at global policy and industry forums including the United Nations, Nacha, and the DC Blockchain Summit, his published work explores decentralized finance, stablecoins, and regulatory harmonization.

In this episode of LME Doomscrolling, 9fin's senior LME lawyer Laurie Tomassian welcomes Bill Derrough, Managing Director and Chairman of the Capital Structure Solutions group at Jefferies.Bill has over three decades of restructuring experience, with a roster of over 600 restructurings completed. What sets his deals apart is a track record of high creditor participation. Over his career, his deals have garnered on average 94% of creditors' support.He brings a new lens to the LME debate, offering a way to use sticks and carrots to get a consensual outcome, not to fuel continued creditor-on-creditor violence. In this episode he walks us through how he avoids the LME pitfalls of what he calls “bad investment banking” that lead to short-term liquidity solutions while creating diminished long-term recoveries. Bill and Laurie speak about how the prevalence of repeat restructurings has impacted creditor behavior and walk through some success stories that have created what Bill likes to call “durable” solutions.Have any feedback for us?

What happens when a nonprofit receives not one, but two transformational, unrestricted gifts worth millions of dollars? In this episode, Rob Harter speaks with Dr. Xanthe Scharff, President and CEO of the Women's Refugee Commission (WRC), and Havovi Waddia, Managing Director of Programs for The Freedom Fund. Both organizations have received two major gifts from philanthropist MacKenzie Scott—WRC receiving a total of $24 million and The Freedom Fund receiving a total of $95 million. Xanthe and Havovi discuss how these unexpected gifts have transformed their organizations' ability to think strategically, invest in frontline organizations, strengthen internal systems, and make long-term commitments to the communities they serve. They also explore the power of trust-based philanthropy, why unrestricted funding can create significantly more impact than traditional restricted grants, and what MacKenzie Scott's approach to giving could mean for the future of nonprofit fundraising and philanthropy. Dr. Xanthe Scharff Key Topics Include: How the Women's Refugee Commission and The Freedom Fund received transformational gifts from MacKenzie Scott without applying or making a traditional funding request Why receiving a second major gift represents an extraordinary vote of confidence in an organization's leadership, mission, transparency, and impact How unrestricted funding gives nonprofit leaders the flexibility and “head space” to make strategic, long-term decisions instead of simply reacting to immediate funding pressures How The Freedom Fund is using its funding to make long-term investments in frontline and survivor-led organizations working to end modern slavery How the Women's Refugee Commission is adapting its funding model amid major cuts to government and international humanitarian aid Why trust-based philanthropy can strengthen nonprofit organizations, frontline partners, civil society, and ultimately democracy and human rights What MacKenzie Scott's giving philosophy may signal about the future of philanthropy—and why private philanthropy cannot replace the responsibility of governments Mentioned in This Episode: Women's Refugee Commission The Freedom Fund Yield Giving This Episode is Sponsored By: DonorBox Links to Resources: Interested in Leadership and Life Coaching?

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I look at how Google Cloud is expanding the Gemini ecosystem into the automotive world through its partnership with Mahindra. Highlights 00:03 — Google Cloud is partnering with the Indian automobile manufacturer Mahindra to get Gemini Enterprise installed directly into its vehicles. That's another interesting example that we're seeing here of AI leaping out of the digital space and becoming something much more physical. 00:23 — In this new development, the automotive agent in Gemini Enterprise is being integrated into MAIA, Mahindra's Artificial Intelligence Architecture platform. Beyond being a voice assistant, Gemini can understand natural language requests and actually interact with a car and its functions. 00:41 — Sashi Sreedharan, Managing Director of Google Cloud India, explained that "by enhancing its in-vehicle assistant with an automotive agent built on Gemini Enterprise, Mahindra is creating personalized and helpful conversational interactions for navigation, search, media communication, and other vehicle controls that will help drivers navigate and explore rich features in a more natural and helpful way." 01:13 — What we're seeing here is pretty significant: AI operating at the edge, with this idea of the digital and physical working together, and the car becoming the AI endpoint. This is also a really important way for Google Cloud to expand the Gemini ecosystem beyond smartphones, PCs, and enterprise software. 01:37 — The real opportunity that I see here isn't necessarily about Gemini as an AI assistant, but where the tech is embedded; it's those all-important endpoints.

Instead, it starts by uncovering an undeniable brand truth—something authentic to your history, identity, and purpose—and using it as the foundation for everything that follows.They explore why brands need to think beyond traditional product categories and start competing for moments in people's lives, how cultural shifts create new opportunities, why chasing trends can make brands lose their identity, and how heritage brands can evolve without abandoning the equity that made them successful.Meghan also shares the thinking behind LOVE's work with Back to Nature and Moët Ice Impérial, including how an unexpectedly simple observation about a champagne bottle helped inspire a distinctive creative idea.Plus, Meghan reveals why certainty creates confidence—and how finding something your brand can be certain about can give leaders the courage to make braver creative decisions.If you're a founder, marketer, strategist, or business leader trying to build a brand people don't just recognize but genuinely care about, this episode is for you. In this episode:Why the strongest brands transcend their productsHow to uncover your brand's undeniable truthWhy cultural relevance shouldn't mean chasing trendsHow to compete for moments instead of categoriesWhy heritage brands should evolve rather than reinventHow looking outside your category can reveal cultural opportunitiesWhy great creative ideas often feel obvious in hindsightHow certainty can give brands the confidence to be braveMeghan Labot — LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/meghanlabotLOVE — Website: lovecreative.comLOVE — LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/love-LOVE — Blog / News & Insights: lovecreative.com/blog-----Whether you're a founder, marketing director, or business leader managing a growing brand across multiple teams or regions, this episode will help you identify the hidden friction points holding your brand back.Take the Brand Power Assessment: BrandPowerScore.co.ukBook a Free Brand Discovery Call:Subscribe for more episodes focused on building stronger, smarter, and more unified brands.Watch podcast clips & deep dives on YouTube: Elements Brand Management

Dan Nathan sits down with Matt Turck, Managing Director at First Mark Capital and creator of the annual MAD (Machine Learning, AI & Data) Landscape, for a wide-ranging look at where AI investing stands right now. They cover the power-law dynamics driving venture dollars to a handful of companies, why Nvidia is starting to look like "the bank" of the AI industry, Anthropic's surge past $65 billion in revenue and its first profitable quarter, and how OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, and Meta are each positioning for what comes next. The conversation turns philosophical with a discussion of AGI, superintelligence, and the idea that Altman, Musk, and Amodei are all, in their own ways, trying to build God — before closing with a deep dive into China's AI progress, open source, and the robotics race.

Some of Australia's strongest extended-stay demand sits in places most travelers would never think about. Damien Gallace, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Extended Stay Australasia, joins me on No Vacancy with a very different way to look at the #HotelDevelopment map. His team follows demand from steel, mining, ports, defence, hospitals and universities, then looks for places where people need to stay for weeks or months and the right accommodations don't exist yet. That gets even more compelling when Damien says Australia's #ExtendedStay market trails the U.S. by roughly 15 to 20 years. His team already identifies more than 50 locations where the model fits.Sometimes the biggest #Hospitality opportunities aren't where people want to vacation. They're where people need to be. Listen to this one and you'll look at Australia's hotel map very differently. Thanks to our friends at Actabl for supporting No Vacancy. Actabl gives you the power to profit. Visit Actabl.com.

"I've been particularly passionate about working with women in those communities to teach them about new techniques so they can understand how to run their farm more effectively, but also understand their rights as women in those communities so they have a stronger voice…. And because they were called an 'ambassador,' their status in the village rose." Alison Ward on Electric Ladies Podcast If you're shopping for back-to-school clothes or a new fall wardrobe, you'll look at the labels a bit differently after listening to today's episode. Why? Because the cotton in your jeans might have been grown organically by a female farmer - and the tag could be a clue. Cotton is everywhere but this vital crop is now facing serious threats from climate change. Women farmers are transforming it. One organization is working to change that. CottonConnect is training female cotton farmers in eco-friendly, climate-resilient farming practices – and tracking it. Listen to Alison Ward, CEO of CottonConnect on Electric Ladies Podcast with Joan Michelson and learn about the significant yet under recognized role of women in cotton farming. This episode originally aired last year. You'll hear about: · How climate change is hitting female farmers the hardest · The ways CottonConnect is bringing transparency to the cotton supply chain · Innovative solutions in cotton farming, including a role played by the European Space Agency · How CottonConnect is empowering women and transforming communities · Plus, career advice for women navigating career transitions "If you can combine something you're passionate about with something you're good at, and you can make that into a career, that is success. Find other women that will be prepared to give back to help careers and connect. We have a Women in CottonConnect group where we are really looking at how we can advance women in our organization. "Not everything has to be an enormous career step. When I joined CottonConnect, it was a relatively small organization that has since grown into a much larger one. It was something I was passionate about, and I've been fortunate to have a great team and great advisors around me."

For years, the real estate industry has been told America has a severe housing shortage. But what if the data tells a different story? James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Ryan McKeveny, Managing Director at Zelman & Associates, to challenge one of housing's biggest assumptions. Ryan explains why declining birth rates, an aging population, slowing household formation, and immigration trends could mean the housing market is much closer to balanced than many believe. They also dig into affordability, mortgage rates, shifting demographics, today's difficult transaction environment, and what agents should be doing now instead of waiting for the market to improve.

In this episode of the Research Insights Podcast, Dale Hall, Managing Director of Research at the Society of Actuaries Research Institute, is joined by Geralyn Trujillo, Senior Director of Public Policy at the American Academy of Actuaries, for a recap of the meeting in Columbus, Ohio. Together, they explore key developments across the life, health and property and casualty practice areas and discuss what these evolving issues could mean for actuaries, regulators, consumers and the broader insurance system. The conversation examines SOA Research Institute experience studies and emerging research, the Generally Recognized Expense Table (GRET), long-term care and combination products, the growing use and regulation of artificial intelligence in insurance, catastrophe risk, affordability, resilience and the increasingly interdisciplinary role of actuaries. Listen to hear which developments from the NAIC Summer National Meeting may have the most momentum through the remainder of 2026—and what actuaries should keep on their radar.
In Episode 216 of The Practice Podcast, Jeff Bast and Brett Amron welcome Chad Volkert, Global C-Suite Leader and Managing Director at Protiviti, for a conversation about career growth, leadership, the evolution of the legal services industry, and how artificial intelligence is reshaping the future of work.Chad shares his professional journey, beginning with his decision early in his career to pursue opportunities beyond traditional legal practice. After briefly working in litigation, he transitioned into legal staffing and recruiting, becoming one of the first professionals hired to help build Robert Half's legal staffing business. Over the course of his career, he has built and led high-performing teams across more than 30 offices and 2,000 professionals while helping organizations navigate growth, change, and new opportunities.The conversation explores the evolution of alternative legal services and how technological and legal industry changes have created new opportunities for lawyers and other professionals beyond traditional practice. Chad also shares his perspective on career development, encouraging professionals to look beyond compensation and titles to consider purpose, long-term growth, and work that is both challenging and fulfilling.Chad also discusses the growing influence of artificial intelligence in the workplace and why organizations should view AI as an opportunity for growth rather than merely a tool to reduce headcount. He explains the importance of AI governance, collaboration across legal, operations, technology, and security, and investing in training and upskilling employees as technology continues to evolve.Throughout the episode, Chad reinforces a central idea that has shaped his own career and approach to leadership: embracing change and technology is important, but human connection remains essential. As AI transforms the way people work, he believes communication, problem-solving, trust, and the ability to build meaningful relationships will become even more valuable.Key Topics:• Chad Volkert's career evolution from law to staffing and consulting• The growth and evolution of alternative legal services• Finding purpose and fulfillment in your career• Career growth beyond compensation and titles• Artificial intelligence and the future of work• AI governance and responsible implementation• Upskilling employees as technology evolves• The importance of communication, problem-solving, and human connectionStreaming on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Podcasts.
