Podcasts about Markowitz

How do you build trust in a business environment where security reviews, compliance demands, and vendor risk checks can slow everything down just when companies are trying to move faster? In this episode, I sit down with Adam Markowitz, CEO and co-founder of Drata, to talk about why trust has become one of the most important business conversations in tech. Adam brings a fascinating perspective to the table. Before building Drata, he worked on NASA's space shuttle program, and today he leads a company that has grown rapidly by helping organizations rethink compliance, governance, risk, and assurance through automation and AI. What stood out to me in this conversation was how clearly he framed the real issue. Compliance may have been where many companies started, but trust is the bigger story. In a world shaped by cloud services, third party vendors, and constant security scrutiny, old point in time audits and reactive processes are starting to look painfully outdated. We also talked about Drata's acquisition of SafeBase and what that says about the direction of the market. Adam explained how security and GRC teams have too often been treated as back office functions, expected to stay quiet and keep the company out of trouble. But he sees things very differently. He argues that these teams can actively help close deals, accelerate revenue, and remove friction from the buying process. That shift matters because trust now plays a direct role in business growth. If customers can quickly get answers to security questions and understand how a company manages risk, sales cycles move faster and security teams stop being bottlenecks at the final stage of a deal. Another part of the conversation that really stayed with me was Adam's view on AI. He sees it as both a tailwind and a test. AI is helping automate highly manual GRC workflows, improve continuous compliance monitoring, and support newer frameworks tied to AI risk itself. At the same time, he is realistic about the pressure this puts on businesses. AI may introduce fresh concerns, but it also shines a harsher light on issues that have been around for years, things like access creep, weak controls, and data integrity problems. That honesty gave this discussion a lot of weight because it moved beyond hype and focused on what companies actually need to do. We also touched on Drata's momentum as a business, from opening a new San Francisco headquarters to expanding globally and moving further into the enterprise market. But even there, Adam kept coming back to culture, discipline, and a deep understanding of the customer problem. For me, that was the thread running through the whole episode. Trust is not a side issue. It is part of how modern companies grow, compete, and prove they can be relied on. If your business still sees compliance as a checkbox exercise or a cost center, this conversation will give you plenty to think about. Where do you see the relationship between trust, security, and growth heading next, and what did this episode make you question about the way your own organization handles compliance? Share your thoughts with me.

From the earliest days of executive search to shaping the leadership of companies like Netflix, Facebook, Google, and Spotify, few people have seen more of Silicon Valley's hiring successes—and failures—than Jeff Markowitz and Peter Clarke.In this exclusive episode of Truth Works, host Jessica Neal sits down with two of her closest professional allies and heavyweights in the world of venture capital and executive talent. Together, the three share over 30 years of experience navigating the highest-stakes hiring environments in the tech world.Jeff Markowitz, currently an advisor at Greylock Partners, shares the incredible story of being hand-picked by Google CEO Sundar Pichai to reshape senior leadership at Alphabet. Peter Clarke, a Talent Partner at Accel for over 13 years, opens up about the evolution of search and his role as a "fifth Beatle" in the founding of True Search.This conversation goes beyond standard interview advice. The trio pulls back the curtain on:Why most companies get hiring wrong, even today.The dangers of "war for talent" thinking vs. relationship building.The specific simulation techniques the best leaders use to interview.The critical, and often missing, step of referencing as a management playbook.How great CEOs, like Scott Dietzen (formerly of Pure Storage), learn the job before they even make the hire.The one question Jessica asks to immediately identify a truly great recruiter.Whether you're a founder looking to make your first executive hire, a leader struggling to build a balanced team, or a recruiter looking to level up from "salesy" to strategic, this is a masterclass you cannot afford to miss.Timestamps: – Intro: Reconnecting with friends. – Peter Clarke's unique career path: Graphic design to software engineer to executive search. – Accel's unique investing approach and portfolio impact. – Jeff Markowitz's journey: CPA to opening the Silicon Valley office to Greylock. – The call from Sundar Pichai: Mapping out the senior talent role at Google/Alphabet. – Why hiring is still so hard (and wrong) in 2026. – The flaw in prioritizing "diligence" over assessment. – The true cost of a bad hire (and why it's not what you think). – Moving beyond standard questions to "unfiltered conversations." – How to simulate working together during the interview process. – The best CEOs get this one thing right (Pure Storage example). – How can CEOs really identify great recruiting talent? – Closing thoughts on friendship and mutual career impact.

In this episode of The Behavioral View, Nissa Van Etten, Olivia Teal, Elizabeth Barajas, and Yagnesh Vadgama discuss the evolution of outcomes-based care within applied behavior analysis (ABA). Drawing from extensive experience in both clinical practice and payer systems, Vadgama outlines the differences between traditional fee-for-service models and outcomes-based care frameworks. The panel explores how standardized assessments, aggregate data analysis, and empirically supported dosing recommendations can create greater alignment between providers and payers while maintaining individualized clinical decision-making. The discussion addresses administrative burden, prior authorization processes, value-based payment arrangements, caregiver involvement, social determinants of health, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Emphasis is placed on transparency, data-driven decision making, and protecting the integrity of behavior analytic practice while demonstrating measurable outcomes at both the individual and population levels. This course provides practical insight into how outcomes-based care models may shape the future of ABA service delivery.

Inside this episode with your host, Mitch HamptonI grew up with both bookstores and record stores. Some of the first albums I bought were, aside from being large physical objects with quite elaborate artwork, were bought as part of the exploration inside of the record store. More often than not this involved ten year old me talking to older people about the new Return To Forever or Weather Report album or what this direct to disc Dave Brubeck album was all about. I loved speaking with Morgan Markowitz; this episode represents the most direct connection to how I learned about the arts in general and the importance of those physical spaces intended for public enjoyment that some of us call “third place”. To love music was for sixty plus years to be involved in one way or the other with some record storeMore on the wonderful Earth River Records Asheville's largest selection of Vinyl, Tapes & CDs with over 20,000 items both new and used! A second-generation vinyl legacy handed down from father to son! The first Earth River was based in Rochester, New York in the back of a headshop in 1968 and run by OG Owner Franklin Markowitz. Throughout the 70s & 80s the shop (and Franklin's huge vinyl collection) moved out west and based operations in Newport Beach, California. Franklin's family grew & Earth River Records expanded to multiple shop locations in Coos Bay, Eugene & Corvalis, Oregon. In the 90s & 2000s the shop was passed to Franklin's son Morgan and moved to Seattle, Washington. Earth River Records finally landed in Asheville, North Carolina in 2021. Coast to coast, we've got the most! Can't make it to the shop? Check us out on Ebay and Discogs.  We carry audio equipment, cassette tapes, CDs, DVDs, hundreds of vintage posters, signed memorabilia & more!We want to express our deep gratitude to each and every one of you. Western North Carolina and Asheville took another unprecedented hit from Helene. Those of us lucky enough to have made it through depend on our immediate community to survive here. And we have survived! We are still here because of YOU! (And sheer luck! The roof almost blew off our building. But it didn't!)The wonderful folks at Siam Thai fed the Woodfin community (and us) delicious food for free when our neighborhood was hungry. Mercy Chefs set up a kitchen two doors down. Travelling linemen, firefighters and responders came in looking for music and movies. Countless friends and customers reached out, checked in and helped each other. We weren't sure if the shop would make it in the wake of so much destruction and grief. But you kept our doors open! When the power came back on without internet service, suddenly all of this physical media had relevance again. People still needed to hear music, watch a comforting movie or play an old videogame. The whole town was transported back to pre-internet days.We are humbled and proud to be North Asheville's community record store!Earth River Records wishes you and yours all the best this year.See you soon! Links to everything Earth River Records Website ( it's fab): www.earthriverrecords.comEbay: https://www.ebay.com/str/earthriverrecordsDiscogs: https://www.discogs.com/seller/EarthRiverRecords/profileInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/earth_river_records/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/earthriverrecords/#herbiehancock #andywarhol #music #recordstore #1970s #1980s #1960s #1950s #janefonda #exerecise #aerobics #jazz #rock #velvetunderground #loureed #stankenton #junechristy #thefourfreshman #cassettetape #8track #vinyl #spokenword #comedy #archive #antique #thriftstore #debbieharry #blondie #1979 #peaches #samgoody #towerrecords #samgoody #easylstening #heavymetal #deathmetal #rap #hiphop #countrymusic #folkmusic #longplaying #digital #analog

This podcast episode explores the tragic true story of Nick Markowitz, a 15-year-old boy whose life was taken after being used as leverage in a reckless dispute that spiraled out of control.When a conflict involving his older half-brother and a local drug dealer escalates, Nick is pulled into a situation he had no part in creating. What starts as a misguided attempt to intimidate someone quickly becomes a tragedy driven by fear, ego, and the inability of the adults involved to stop what they started.The episode also examines how this case entered popular culture through the 2006 film Alpha Dog. While the movie brought national attention to the crime, it also raised difficult questions about storytelling, responsibility, and whose perspective gets remembered. We compare the film's portrayal of events with the real case, including criticism from Nick's mother, Susan Markowitz, who later wrote My Stolen Son to reclaim her child's story from sensationalized narratives.Sources:My Stolen Son: The Nick Markowitz Story by Susan Markowitz w/ Jenna Glatzer https://allthatsinteresting.com/nicholas-markowitzAlpha Dog https://allthatsinteresting.com/jesse-james-hollywoodhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Doghttps://www.independent.com/2009/06/21/witness-rundown-hollywood-trial/https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2001-nov-01-me-64254-story.htmlhttps://www.independent.com/2009/06/10/ben-markowitz-on-stand/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today, Hunter was joined by two guests from the Brooklyn Defender Services, Heather Stoloff and Andie Markowitz. Unfortunately, today's conversation brings us another allegation of a public defender leader engaging in flagrant union busting efforts. A few months ago, the Executive Director of the organization called Andie in for a one on one meeting. In that meeting, Andie alleges that the Executive Director handed her instructions detailing how to dissolve the office's current union, how to create a new one, and as Andie understood it, that she would be rewarded for doing so.   Guest: Heather Stoloff, Attorney Team Lead, Preserving Family Bonds Team, Brooklyn Defender Services Andie Markowitz, Senior Social Worker, Brooklyn Defender Services   Resources: Read More Here https://queenseagle.com/all/2025/9/19/brooklyn-defender-services-boss-accused-of-union-busting-scheme https://www.alaa.org/media-releases/resolution-condemning-lisa-schreibersdorf https://hellgatenyc.com/brooklyn-defender-services-union-bust/ https://x.com/bds_union     Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 Publicdefenseless@gmail.com  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patreon www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN Trying to find a specific part of an episode?
