Guy Kawasaki has had an amazing life and career.  After growing up in Hawaii, he went to California for college and later went on to what was then known as Apple Computer where he was a self-described "brand evangelist" during some of their highest growth and most entrepreneurial years.  He describes Steve Jobs as being optimistic almost to the point of being delusional, and working for him has inspired Guy to be interested in mold-breaking people ever since, hence the name of his popular podcast, Remarkable People. He has also written 17 books on a variety of subjects, his latest being Wiser Guy, which was released earlier this year.    Chapters: 00:00 Welcome to Blue Sky  Bill Burke introduces Guy Kawasaki as a remarkable guest on Blue Sky, highlighting Guy's background as chief evangelist at Apple and Canva, and his extensive writing. Guy shares his preference for being a podcast guest due to less prep work, contrasting with the host's five-hour preparation time.  03:10 From Hawaii to Stanford  Guy recounts his childhood in Kalihi Valley, a lower-middle-income part of Hawaii, and how a public school teacher's advice led him to a private school, then Stanford. He describes feeling immediately at home at Stanford in 1972, despite it being pre-tech, and the campus's amazing atmosphere.  06:17 Apple, Steve Jobs & the 1984 Ad  Guy discusses his two stints at Apple, particularly his time in the Macintosh division under Steve Jobs from 1983 to 1987. He reveals the Macintosh team's mission to preserve democracy and freedom through computing and shares the behind-the-scenes story of the iconic 1984 Super Bowl ad, which the board initially wanted to pull.  11:49 Evangelizing Apple & Sales Skills  Guy details how Apple evangelized its new operating system in the 1980s through fervor rather than just money, contrasting with the corporate image of IBM. He also shares his 'checkered past' of dropping out of medical, dental, and law school, leading him to an MBA and invaluable sales experience in the jewelry business, which he considers essential.  17:02 Steve Jobs: Visionary & Demanding  Guy describes working for Steve Jobs as the most formative experience of his career, calling Jobs a visionary and passionate, albeit demanding and intimidating, leader. He emphasizes that Jobs was a 'mission-driven egoist' who cared only about making the best computer, disregarding personal biases like race or gender.  23:01 Remarkable People Podcast Origins  Guy explains his decision to start the 'Remarkable People' podcast, initially inspired by the lucrative ad model of another podcaster, and his realization that his access to remarkable individuals and business experience uniquely positioned him. He highlights the strategic advantage of having prominent guests like Jane Goodall to attract others.  30:08 Jane Goodall: A Source of Hope  Guy recounts his personal connection to Jane Goodall, stemming from a TEDx interview, and how she became his first podcast guest. He describes her as the most remarkable person he's interviewed, embodying hope and tireless dedication to her cause, even declining a rest offer at 90 due to 'too much to do.'  36:30 Optimism as a Strategic Advantage  Guy discusses optimism as a strategic advantage, asserting that it's crucial for achieving anything significant, combining realism with the belief that challenges can be overcome. He shares his experiences of taking up ice hockey at 44 and surfing at 60, attributing it to a 'growth mindset' and the belief that one is never too old to learn new things.

Writing the "Why Our School?" essay is one of the toughest—and most overlooked—parts of the MBA application. In this episode, GMAC Zach sits down with Jeremy Shinewald, founder of MBA Mission and one of the most trusted voices in MBA admissions, to break down how to turn this high-stakes prompt into a powerful statement of fit. Jeremy explains why this essay is far more than a formality, where most applicants go wrong, and the three core components every strong response must include: your context, your goals, and a bridge that connects those goals to the school's specific resources. He also shares insider tips from two decades of advising thousands of candidates, including how to avoid sounding generic, why authenticity matters more than perfection, and how to demonstrate conviction that resonates with admissions committees. If you want to tell your story with clarity, purpose, and genuine fit, this episode is your roadmap. Featured Resources: mbaMission: https://www.mbamission.com onTrack by mbaMission: https://ontrack.mbamission.com About Our Guest: Jeremy Shinewald is the founder of mbaMission (Poets and Quants 4x top-ranked MBA admissions consulting firm) and is an industry founder, innovator and driver. He is the author of the Complete Start to Finish Guide to MBA admissions and "'What Matters?' and 'What More?': 50 Successful Essays for the Stanford GSB and HBS (and Why They Worked)". He is the creator of onTrack by mbaMission, an asynchronous MBA admissions course and platform which Poets and Quants called, "the most comprehensive MBA admissions resource ever created." Jeremy's thought leadership has led to him being quoted in the WSJ, NYT and many other media outlets. Takeaways: The 'Why Our School' essay is crucial for MBA applications. Applicants often make the mistake of pandering to schools. Authenticity is key; don't try to be someone you're not. Understanding your goals before applying is essential. Researching schools thoroughly can enhance your application. Your personal statement should reflect genuine fit with the school. Communication skills are vital in the application process. Context in your essay should lead to your goals. Don't leave your application to the last minute.

Kawaoka also walks through the tax side of the "wealth elevator," including how depreciation, real estate professional status, and oil and gas projects can complement or improve on traditional 401(k)-style strategies. Along the way, he talks about the limitations of short-term rentals and residential assisted living for busy clinicians, the importance of pushing CPAs beyond the default playbook, and why surrounding yourself with an experienced investor community is just as important as the deals themselves.

"Si lo que realmente te apasiona es picar código y nerdear, no te hagas CTO". Con esta honestidad brutal nos recibe Sergio Gago, CTO de Cloudera y autor de "The CTO Toolbox", en un episodio diseñado para romper los idealismos de la carrera tecnológica. Sergio defiende que un líder debe tener "manos de constructor" , pero nos enfrenta a la gran paradoja del rol: para triunfar, debes soltar la reconfortante certeza del código y abrazar el caos de la gestión humana y la incertidumbre del negocio.Desde sus inicios como lo que él llama un "CTO Mickey Mouse" en una startup de 3 personas hasta gestionar estrategias globales de Big Data e IA, Sergio disecciona las fases de madurez por las que pasarás, de gestionar tu casa a gobernar un país entero, y revela la verdad más incómoda de la transición: llega un día en que tu equipo deja de ser los ingenieros con los que te ibas de fiesta y pasa a ser la C-Suite, un grupo de ejecutivos que hablan un idioma financiero que probablemente necesites aprender a la fuerza (o con un MBA) para sobrevivir en la mesa de decisiones. Un viaje imprescindible sobre cómo superar el síndrome del impostor, evitar ser el cuello de botella de tu empresa y entender por qué, a veces, el éxito significa dejar de hacer lo que más te gustaba.Support the show

The most dangerous number in customer experience isn't low—it's shiny. In this CX Pulse Check, we unpack why a single score can seduce teams into storytelling that investors love and customers don't feel, and we make a case for the harder, more honest work of proving value creation by cohort, not by kudos. With Rob Markey of Bain & Company and Harvard Business School, we discuss whether customer metrics predict growth or distract from it, and we separate real loyalty from repeat purchase.We go straight at the NPS debate: what the score can predict, where it fails, and how it becomes powerful only as part of a system that links feedback to actions that change renewal, cross-sell, referrals, and cost-to-serve. We talk airlines, captive markets, and the language games behind “loyalty” programs that purchase repetition without building emotional commitment. Then we get practical. You'll hear a little about how to read interaction telemetry for risk signals, and build models that translate service performance—wait times, abandon rates, repeat contacts—into forward revenue forecasts your CFO will respect.This is a great listen for leaders who want both heart and proof: real-time feedback to understand emotion and expectation shifts, behavioral data to see what customers actually do, and investor-ready visuals like tenure curves and revenue per customer by acquisition year.

Stop letting your birthday decide your bond mix.That “age in bonds” rule feels safe, but it can quietly rob you of growth, freedom, and spending power.In this episode, Ari challenges the traditional 60/40 rule and shows how to build a smarter allocation based on your actual life, not your birth year.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. This upcoming week, Emory / Goizueta, CMU / Tepper, Boston College / Carroll, Chicago / Booth, Yale SOM, Michigan / Ross, SMU / Cox and Georgia / Terry are scheduled to release their Round 1 decisions. Graham highlighted the upcoming Masters in Management (MiM) webinar series, scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Signups for these events are here, https://www.clearadmit.com/events The next livestream AMA is scheduled for Tuesday, December 16th; here's the link to Clear Admit's YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/cayoutubelive. Graham noted recently published articles on career placements in the Tech and Finance industries as well as a Fridays from the Frontline piece on the Eurout LGBTQ+ conference at London Business School. He then covered two admissions tips recently published by Clear Admit. The first focuses on the increasing importance of video essays in the MBA admissions process. The second admissions tip focuses on how best to do school research via communities of students, alumni and faculty. Graham highlighted three Real Humans pieces spotlighting students from IMD, IESE and Cambridge / Judge, and then we discussed the recently published Class of 2027 admissions profile from Harvard Business School. Finally, Graham profiled a recently published podcast that focuses on UNC / Kenan Flagler's Deans Fellows program. 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 695 GMAT score but is planning a retake. They only have two years of experience but are determined to begin their MBA program this season. This week's second MBA applicant has a whopping 755 GMAT score but only a 3.0 GPA. They are targeting next season for their MBA, as they only have 2.5 years of experience, to date. This week's final MBA candidate is choosing between the one-year MBA programs at Northwestern / Kellogg, CMU / Tepper and Emory / Goizueta. They want to do consulting post MBA, and their partner has an offer at Tepper. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA. Thanks to all of you who've been joining us and please remember to rate and review this show wherever you listen!

We visit Basel Dalloul at the Dalloul Artist Collective to discuss the genesis of the Dalloul Art Foundation and the mission of the new artist collective. A technologist and lawyer by training, Basel shares his family's journey into collecting art and the vision his father had for a Pan-Arab art collection in Beirut. They discuss how Arabism failed politically, but that culturally, the art from the region shows a great deal of sync and kinship, with artists empathizing with their Arab brethren. Central to the discussion is the role of art as an archive of history. Basel highlights the importance of Arab art as a reference site and how connecting artists from Morocco to Iraq reveals common themes that some may find inconvenient to tell. The conversation then shifts to the need to decolonize the art world, critiquing the tendency to celebrate Western art and seek validation from Western curators. Basel challenges the routine belief that Arab artists or art professionals are "not competent or good enough". He also addresses the broken global gallery system, which often dictates terms to artists and unfairly takes up to 50% of an artist's take. The mission of the Dalloul Artist Collective is to shift focus from the art to the artist, acting as an artist management agency to empower and educate the artist community. 0:00 Introduction2:12 The Vision for the Dalloul Art Foundation: Pan-Arab Art3:36 Relationship to Art Growing Up5:55 Shifting from Western to Arab Art Collecting8:45 Failure Is Not An Option10:47 Authenticating Art and The Lack of a Reference Site for Arab Art12:53 Organizing the Single Largest Private Collection of Modern Contemporary Arab Art15:05 The Kinship of Arab Culture17:57 Artists as Archivists of History19:46 Beirut: A De Facto Cultural Hub With No Taboos22:54 Critiquing the Celebration of Western Art Over Arab Art25:57 Dalloul Artist Collective: Focusing on The Artist27:18 The Broken Global Gallery System32:11 The State of Art Collecting in The Arab World35:56 Artists Basel Dalloul Adores38:02 The Need to Educate the Arab Youth on Arab Artists38:48 The Story Behind Ayman Baalbaki's Moulatham41:26 Empowering Artists with Transparency and Business Savvy Basel Dalloul Founded the Dalloul Art Foundation in 2017 to manage and promote his father's (Dr. Ramzi Dalloul) vast collection of modern and contemporary Arab art. At around 4000 pieces it is the largest collection of its kind in private hands. The collection includes but is not limited to paintings, photography, sculpture, video and mixed media art. Basel has had a passion for art since he was very young, inspired by both his mother and father, whom are also passionate about art in all its forms. Basel also founded NOOR Group in 2000 in response to the Egyptian government's announced goal of becoming the hub of the information technology (IT) industry in the Middle East. As Chairman and CEO, he has set the overall direction of NOOR, bringing the first region-wide, full-service IT development program to the area. He holds a Bachelor of Science in finance from American University and a Juris Doctor and MBA from Georgetown University, both in Washington, DC. Basel also studied electrical engineering and computer science at Rice University in Houston, TX, and undertook comparative studies of American and British common law and procedural law at Oxford University in England. He co-taught a course in entertainment law and the Internet at Georgetown University Law Center and is a frequent speaker and seminar leader at IT conferences worldwide. Connect with Bassel Dalloul

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Adam Williams discuss:Planning taxes proactivelyExploring creative tax strategiesBuilding a professional teamImplementing actionable year-end steps Key Takeaways:Most law firms wait until filing to address taxes, missing savings opportunities. Working with a tax strategist year-round aligns decisions with long-term goals. Proactive planning uncovers ways to reduce liabilities and strengthen financial outcomes.Techniques like the Augusta rule, hiring family members, and royalty setups save money. Advanced structures such as captive insurance can provide additional tax benefits. Knowing these options allows law firms to tailor strategies to their unique situation.Successful tax and business strategies require bookkeepers, advisors, and strategists. Delegating responsibilities reduces personal burden while improving firm performance. A strong team empowers owners to focus on growth and long-term success.Year-end is ideal for accelerating deductions and making tax-advantaged purchases. Prepaying vendors or investing in marketing can reduce taxable income efficiently. Evaluating current practices ensures every opportunity for savings is captured. "If they don't bring you ideas throughout the year, you don't have a tax strategist. You have a tax preparer." —  Adam Williams Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Mauricio Di Bartolomeo is the co-founder and CSO of Ledn, a leading provider of bitcoin-backed loans. He found Bitcoin during hyperinflation in Venezuela and believes in the future of the digital economy. He has an MBA from the Richard Ivey business school at Western University.Mauricio Di Bartolomeo, the co-founder and CSO of Ledn, recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about the market.Growing up in Venezuela and experiencing hyperinflation, bank collapses, and capital controls firsthand, Mauricio witnessed the disastrous consequences of a failing government and currency. His family eventually found a solution and "a beam of light" in Bitcoin mining, which allowed his brother to escape the country with his wealth intact on a hardware wallet, an experience that cemented their conviction in Bitcoin as a tool for economic freedom and survival.Mauricio explains how this experience led to the founding of Ledn, a company built to solve the problem faced by Bitcoin miners and holders: the need for financing without having to sell their Bitcoin. He delves into the core value proposition of Bitcoin-backed loans, especially for the emerging world, highlighting that Ledn offers the same rates and terms to clients in Latin America as those in Europe or North America. This capability is providing financial inclusion, giving many in the region their first-ever loan approval, which is a massive, transformative opportunity that traditional banks have historically denied.The discussion pivots to Ledn's decision to transition to a Bitcoin-only company after a period of supporting Ethereum during the Celsius bankruptcy transition. Mauricio outlines the move as a commitment to simplicity and transparency, emphasizing the company's deep belief in the long-term viability and investment case of Bitcoin. The conviction is rooted in the belief that the future of Bitcoin-backed loans is a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity, and Ledn aims to win by focusing on doing Bitcoin-backed loans better than anyone else, adhering to the principle that "the best restaurants have the smallest menus."A crucial component of Ledn's commitment to transparency is its pioneering and ongoing Proof of Reserves protocol. Mauricio details this process, explaining that an independent CPA verifies Ledn holds all the assets it owes its clients by looking at both the asset and liability sides every six months, a cadence the company is moving to monthly. He stresses the vital importance of Proof of Reserves—something all failed crypto lenders like FTX lacked—as a requirement clients should demand, ensuring a company is honestly reporting its liabilities and protecting client assets.The episode also covers the concept of the "new carry trade," which is the strategy of borrowing a weak, constantly-debased currency (like the US Dollar) against a hard, appreciating asset with a finite supply (Bitcoin). Mauricio illustrates this with a client anecdote who was able to buy a house without selling his Bitcoin, which then appreciated fivefold. He explains that this strategy is tax-beneficial and mirrors how the world's wealthy manage their assets, allowing Bitcoin holders to "go short weak dollars and maintain your strong Bitcoin," ultimately helping them grow their net wealth over time.Finally, Mauricio addresses the looming entry of traditional banks into the Bitcoin services space. He argues that Bitcoin-native companies like Ledn have a massive advantage because the banks' fractional reserve model is incompatible with Bitcoin's ethos of full reserves. He cautions users to be skeptical of banks' intentions and collateral practices. Ledn, a regulated business built to operate 24/7 in the volatile crypto market, is focused on building a "Fort Knox" that is designed to outlive its founders and their children, a powerful statement on their commitment to generational wealth and long-term security.To learn more about the company visit Ledn.io, and follow the team on X.

They explore how age and personal finances may influence ETA risk tolerance; whether an MBA truly matters for success in a traditional search; how to handle the loneliness that often accompanies searching for and running a small business; where searchers commonly spin their wheels early on; how to evaluate red flags during diligence; the realities of buying a job versus a business; advantages and drawbacks of franchising; whether now is a good time to search; and much more. Packed with insights drawn from decades of ETA experience, along with stories and humor, this wide-ranging conversation is essential listening for anyone exploring entrepreneurship through acquisition.

Private credit has become one of the most significant shifts in modern finance—quietly but rapidly reshaping how private companies access capital. Over the last decade, assets under management in the space have surged from roughly $500 billion to about $2 trillion, fueled by post-crisis regulation, a growing appetite for yield, and the rise of private equity. With headlines increasingly focused on “shadow banking,” retail access, and the long-term implications of private lenders replacing banks, the conversation around private credit has never been more timely.So, the core question is this: How did private credit grow so quickly, why does it matter now, and what does its rise mean for investors, lenders, and the broader financial system?In the third episode of our mini-series on the alternative asset market, Tuesdays with Morrisey host Adam Morrisey speaks with AB Private Credit Investors‘ President Brent Humphries and Managing Director Marc Cooper. As leaders within AllianceBernstein's $800 billion global investment platform, they break down what private credit is, why it has accelerated so dramatically, and how the industry is evolving as it enters its next phase of growth.Top TakeawaysPrivate credit has quietly become one of the biggest shifts in modern finance. It is now the primary way many private companies access capital, replacing what used to be a market run by the traditional banking system.The rise of private credit was largely created by regulation. After the financial crisis, new rules made it harder for banks to hold certain loans, and private lenders stepped in with faster, more flexible financing that met the needs of private equity and middle-market companies.Investors have been drawn to it because of its combination of yield, downside protection, and floating rates. It has delivered strong, steady returns without taking on other risks tied to interest rates, foreign currency, or market volatility.The big question now is where the risk sits. As more lending moves outside the regulated banking system, pension funds, insurance companies, and individuals hold a growing share of the credit exposure.Its next phase will include more retail access, more participation from insurers, and continued specialization among lenders. At the same time, AI is beginning to reshape underwriting, research, and operations, making investment teams faster and more efficient.Topics CoveredWhat “private credit” means and how direct lending worksHow bank regulation after 2008 shifted lending outside the traditional systemThe role of the unitranche structure in simplifying deal executionWhy private credit returns have attracted pensions, institutions, and high-net-worth investorsHow to evaluate private credit fund managers (track record, team retention, sector edge, platform model)Perceived risks and the “shadow banking” debateThe role of insurance capital and the rise of investment-grade private creditHow AI is influencing underwriting, research, and software-sector lendingFuture outlook for the next 5–10 years in private creditBrent Humphries is the President and a founding member of AB Private Credit Investors, where he oversees investment strategy, originations, underwriting, portfolio management, and investor relations for the firm's middle-market direct lending platform. He previously led Barclays Private Credit Partners and held senior roles at Goldman Sachs' Specialty Lending Group and the Texas Growth Fund, building deep expertise across private credit, direct lending, and middle-market private equity. Humphries, who began his career in leveraged finance with NationsBank and J.P. Morgan, holds a BBA in finance from the University of Oklahoma and an MBA from Harvard Business School.Marc Cooper is a Managing Director at AB Private Credit Investors, where he leads software-focused direct lending and tech capital solutions, building on nearly a decade of experience rising through the firm's investment ranks. His background spans structuring and underwriting secured lending solutions across software, healthcare, business services, and other middle-market sectors, with earlier roles at Fifth Street Asset Management and Prudential Capital Group providing deep experience in technology lending, private placements, and credit analysis. Cooper also serves as a board observer for multiple technology companies and brings a strong foundation in financial modeling, underwriting, and direct deal sourcing from his early investment banking and analyst roles.

Many of us carry shame and anxiety around money and stories we've inherited, absorbed, or unconsciously lived into. Mindfully acknowledging our stories is the first step toward freedom. Money is emotional, relational, and often a mirror of what matters most in life. Awareness of your money "story" creates spaciousness for something more compassionate. This week, Jessie is joined by Helena Rosenthal, MBA, MPH, and Nikki Macdonald, CFP®, financial advisors from Northwestern Mutual who specialize in supporting women and women-led households.  Mindfulness and money are powerful partners. Thoughtful awareness transforms how we save, spend, and invest.  Learning to trust yourself with money is a practice. Financial safety doesn't come from overthinking but from clarity, planning, and presence. Reflection Questions: What story were you taught about money growing up? What feelings arise when you think about money? Are they guilt, fear, shame, or hope? If money weren't an issue, how would you spend your time? What would change if you approached your finances with compassion and curiosity rather than fear or judgment? If you'd like support to integrate what you heard today into your life, coaching is a powerful place to begin. You can explore working with me here: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/coaching To experience this kind of reflective work in a beautiful and nourishing setting, join me at a retreat: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats If you'd like to bring this kind of mindful conversation to your team, institution, or conference, reach out to explore having me speak: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/speaking To learn more about Dr. Liang's work or invite her to speak, visit: www.awakenbreath.org Helena and Nikki offer a complimentary 30-minute session that's thoughtful, values-aligned, and designed to help you begin with ease. *Nothing shared in the Healing Medicine Podcast is medical advice.

Send us a textRetired Marine Corps fighter pilot, Top Gun instructor, and leadership consultant Dave Berke joins Joe for an honest conversation about ego, responsibility, and what it truly means to lead—both in the arena of combat and in everyday life.As the bestselling author of The Need to Lead, Dave pulls back the curtain on the high-pressure world of fighter aviation, the chaos of ground combat in Ramadi, and the quiet challenges of becoming a better leader at home.  He reveals how his biggest breakthroughs came not from triumphs, but from failure—from dogfights he should have won, leadership roles he wasn't ready for, and moments where ego clouded judgment.In this episode, Joe and Dave also explore:Why ego is the most dangerous threat to good leadership—and how to recognize the voice that “loves you to death”How Top Gun actually works (and why the instructors are more humble than Hollywood suggests)Lessons from Ramadi—operating in chaos, fighting self-doubt, and learning fast under pressureWhy leaders fail when they cling to control instead of developing othersThe danger of complacency—and how one “guaranteed win” dogfight changed Dave's approach to preparationPreparing for your own departure as a leader—why good leadership outlasts the leaderThe hard emotional work of transition and why believing in your next mission matters more than salary, title, or prestigeWhether you're leading in uniform, managing a team, or navigating a major life transition, this episode offers hard-earned wisdom on how to stay grounded, remain teachable, and build teams capable of enduring whatever comes next.Dave Berke is a retired U.S. Marine Corps officer, former TOPGUN Instructor, and now the Chief Development Officer and a leadership instructor at Echelon Front.
