Podcast appearances and mentions of Michael Ross

In this week's Data Debrief, the companion show to Driven by Data: The Podcast, Kyle Winterbottom and Catherine Dowden-King unpack the week's main episode with Michael Ross and range far beyond it into the collapse in graduate hiring, the succession planning nobody is doing, and what's really happening at both ends of the data job market.From a record 45% drop in advertised graduate roles, to the experienced leaders who've been out of work for two years, to Michael's case that every average hides an opportunity, Kyle and Catherine make the argument that AI is taking the blame for decisions plenty of businesses already wanted to make, and that the bill for not developing people will land in about five years' time.They also discuss:Why a 45% drop in advertised graduate jobs is the lowest figure ever recorded, and why AI can't be held responsible for all of it.How record university enrolment colliding with a shrinking entry-level market creates a problem unfolding in real time.Why "entry-level" data roles asking for two years of Python or SQL were never really entry-level.What happens to the pipeline when the admin-heavy tasks juniors cut their teeth on get absorbed by agents.Why the real risk isn't AI replacing juniors, but having nobody ready when the current workforce retires.How data roles are shifting towards QA, product management and facing back into the business.Why succession planning has only ever been pointed at the top of the house, and why that has to change.What skills matrices and career pathways expose the moment you ask "and when this bottom layer moves up, then what?"Why some organisations announced AI-driven headcount cuts when the business was simply performing badly.How "we're cutting because of AI" got turned into a PR positive rather than a negative.Why a retailer, a telco and an airline sat at the same table are nowhere near the same stage of the journey.What the senior end of the market actually looks like, and why it gets discussed far less than the graduate end.Why there are more head of, director and VP roles than at any point in fifteen years, even as true CDO roles decline.How being overqualified has become as much of a barrier as being underqualified.Why an entire cohort of data leaders has been tarred with the same brush through no fault of their own.How the failure to prove value from data and analytics now has a direct, downstream human cost.What Michael Ross's epiphany moment says about technical specialists becoming commercial operators.Why de-averaging matters more than any dashboard, and how averages quietly mislead entire teams.How an 80% average occupancy hid the fact that no hotel was anywhere near 80%.Why 100% occupancy might be a pricing failure rather than a success story.What it takes for a CEO to get close enough to the commercial detail of their own business to win.Why putting your head above the parapet takes bravery, and why the cost of not doing it is the situation the industry is now in.Why Dolly Parton's Imagination Library may be the most important thing she ever built.What's left of the Future of Data, AI & BI event, Driven by Data Live on 8 October at Tobacco Dock, and the new roles on the NED Appointment Finder.

In Episode 21 of Season 7 of Driven by Data: The Podcast, Kyle Winterbottom is joined by Michael Ross, Data Agitator & Non-Executive Director at Domestic & General and Policy Expert. They discuss why so many consumer and retail businesses fail to turn data into commercial value, because they run on averages and siloed metrics that hide where money is actually being won and lost.Drawing on a career spanning McKinsey, Figleaves, eCommera and DynamicAction, and years advising CEOs across the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority's portfolio, Michael makes the case for de-averaging: measuring distributions rather than averages, tracking failure modes rather than outcomes, and using driver trees to connect financial results back to the controllable inputs that leaders can actually change.They also discuss:Why Michael's "viewed availability" epiphany at Figleaves exposed a 93% in-stock figure that was really 70%.How siloed teams create a hidden "coordination tax" that quietly erodes commercial performance.Why nobody owning the end-to-end customer journey is still the single biggest issue in most businesses.What separates the CEOs who thrive in a data world: strategic vision paired with "30,000 feet and two inches" of detail.Why "that's where the money is" is the real reason CEOs must get into the commercial engine.How the finance function quietly failed to become the owner of integrated, decision-driving data.Why averages are the enemy of commercial performance, and what to measure instead.How de-averaging an LTV:CAC ratio of 12 revealed that 70% of spend was acquiring customers above their lifetime value.Why bidding on your own brand terms on Google is often just a "navigation tax."What "spill and spoil" are, and how the airline and hotel industries measure their two failure modes.How Premier Inn's headline 80% occupancy hid hotels that were either 60% or 100% full.Why measuring failure metrics drives a far higher-quality conversation than chasing an average upwards.What driver trees are, and how a 1920s DuPont technique connects outcomes to controllable inputs.Why Amazon deliberately spends little time on financial outcomes and focuses on controllable inputs.Why conversion rate is "the CEO's metric" and a recipe for disaster when handed two levels down.How dashboards full of averages and filters create the "illusion of insight" rather than action.Why the best dashboards are the ones that "create a compulsion to act."How de-averaging package utilisation turns one meaningless number into clear churn risks and upsell opportunities.Why data teams so rarely get to this work, and how the "build the foundations" mandate traps them.Why so many data transformations end with "nothing's changed" and an eighteen-month reset.Thanks to our sponsor, Data & AI Literacy Academy.Data & AI Literacy Academy is leading the way in transforming enterprise workforces with data literacy across the organisation, through a combination of change management and education.

In 1896 the Supreme Court ruled that Jim Crow segregation laws were not unconstitutional in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson. This is the case that Brown v. Board of Education would eventually overturn but not until six decades of Jim Crow laws had been endured. Who was Plessy? Who was Ferguson? And how on earth did the Supreme Court reach its conclusions?Don Wildman's guest today is Dr Michael Ross, historian of constitutional history with a focus on Reconstruction era at the University of Maryland.Edited by Aidan Lonergan.

Originally published as a series of novellas in Asimov's Science Fiction before winning the 2006 Locus Award for best novel, Accelerando traces three generations of the Macx family (and one notoriously manipulative AI cat named Aineko) across a high-speed, century-long journey through future history and the looming technological singularity.  We unpack the overwhelming density of Stross's worldbuilding—from cyberpunk edge, BDSM, and KGB-uplifted digital lobsters, to Capitalism 2.0 driven by profit-seeking AI corporations, automated corporate law and self-propagating lawsuits, and personalized advertising that feels eerily prescient today. Discover how Stross redefines the technological singularity through system-wide computing power measured in MIPS, explores consciousness as a predator-prey evolutionary dynamic, and takes us to the edge of the solar system where Matrioshka brains, alien communiqués from brown dwarfs, and beam-riding simulated minds completely rewrite the rules of interstellar travel and resource allocation.  Whether you're curious about the Vile Offspring, nested self-referential autonomous corporations, or Jupiter-orbiting electrodynamic tether generators, this episode breaks down why Accelerando is an essential—and utterly chaotic—masterclass in expert speculative fiction.

In this episode, investigative journalist Hazel Martin and documentary director Stephen Bennett discuss with Dawn their BBC documentary "The Man in the Mask," which examines the 1994 murder of Shamsuddin Mahmood in Orkney, the island's first murder in 25 years.The BBC three part documentary explores the brutal crime, the extensive investigation that initially focused on 15-year-old Michael Ross, his eventual conviction, and Michael Ross's continued claims of innocence.Hazel and Stephen share behind-the-scenes insights into the making of the documentary, including ethical considerations, challenges with accessing key witnesses, conflicting evidence, and why this case still divides the Orkney community. They also examine alternative theories, from contract killer speculation to possible motives of racism, highlighting unanswered questions that continue to fuel debate.This compelling episode offers listeners a deeper look into the case, the people involved, and the art of true crime storytelling.SOURCES:Hazel MartinStephen BennettThe Man in the Mask documentary

Hi everyone, welcome to another episode of The Talk Music Podcast!This episode is a particularly special one for me on a personal level, as I take a trip back to my days as an A&R scout for RCA Records in New York —when I had the incredible opportunity to work closely with none other than GENE SIMMONS.During that time, I discovered and signed the rock band GYPSY ROSE out of Sarnia. I eventually went on to manage the band and co-produce their debut album PREY alongside my longtime friend Gary Furniss—who, for the past 32 years, has served as President of Sony Publishing in Canada. My guest for this episode is the unique sounding gravel-voiced singer songwriter from that album, MICHAEL ROSS.In our conversation, Michael and I dig deep into how we first met, how we ultimately connected with Gene himself and how I secured getting Gypsy Rose signed to RCA and Simmons Records. We also share our experiences working with him as the executive producer of Prey—and what it was really like collaborating and hanging out with Gene behind the scenes. Before we get into our deep dive, I'll be featuring a clip of the album's single “Poisoned by Love.” At the time, the video had gone into heavy rotation on MTV and the song was beginning to climb the U.S. charts… until, suddenly, everything came to a halt.It's a fascinating story from a time when rock ruled the airwaves, CDs were selling in the millions, and MTV could change a band's life overnight. A must-listen for anyone who remembers the golden age of rock.Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This is a conversation about what happens when the data you've trusted your whole career turns out to be pointing you in the wrong direction. It's about the moment when logic starts to unravel, and real clarity begins ... not in more numbers, but in understanding what the customer truly sees. Michael Ross brings a deep humility to his insight: that the story behind the numbers can be more powerful than the numbers themselves. Michael is one of the most respected thinkers in retail and customer data today. A Cambridge mathematician and entrepreneur, he co-founded one of the UK's earliest online retailers, now advises global brands, and teaches at London Business School. But in this episode, it's not what he knows - it's what he rethought - that will stay with you. --The Unlock Moment podcast is brought to you by Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD. Downloaded in over 120 countries.

S3 E2  Dr. Michael Ross This episode of Cocktails with Friends dives deep into modern fatherhood with Dr. Michael Ross, a pediatrician and longtime friend of host Bob Cutler. The two explore the evolving role of dads, not as know-it-alls, but as coaches learning alongside their kids. From navigating healthcare and screen time to managing interests and emotions, Bob and Mike reflect on lessons they've learned and how they're still figuring it out—sometimes over whiskey.   Key Topics 1. Coaching vs. Commanding in Parenting Dr. Mike Ross frames parenting as a form of coaching—rooted not in authority, but in experience, patience, and shared discovery. Rather than issuing commands, he emphasizes offering guidance, listening, and allowing children to make choices and mistakes. This approach fosters trust, resilience, and emotional maturity, helping kids become more independent and self-aware over time. 2. Encouraging Individuality in Children The conversation highlights how important it is for parents to let kids follow their own paths—even when those paths differ dramatically from parental passions. Dr. Ross shares how one of his children embraced theater while the other became a competitive bodybuilder, pushing him to recognize and celebrate individuality. Supporting kids as they explore different identities helps them feel seen, accepted, and empowered to pursue their own dreams. 3. Resilience Through Participation and Setbacks Bob and Mike discuss the importance of letting kids follow through on commitments—even when they're struggling or disinterested. Whether it's seeing a sports season through to the end or dusting off after a fall, children build confidence and resilience by learning that setbacks are part of growth. Rather than rushing to fix things, parents can teach grit by standing back and supporting their kids' efforts to recover and try again.   Episode Index (2:43) Parenting as coaching: Dr. Ross explains that parenting isn't about control, it's about experience-based guidance and mutual learning. (5:06) Supporting individual interests: Mike discusses how his sons' very different passions—music vs. bodybuilding—shaped his understanding of support without pressure. (10:03) Weather and screen time: The two reflect on the challenge of keeping kids engaged outdoors in Maine's long winters while balancing healthy screen use. (20:14) Handling injuries: Mike emphasizes the importance of modeling calm behavior when children get hurt, allowing them to build resilience. (23:21) Ask for help: Bob closes with a reminder that fathers should lean on their community and fellow dads for guidance, resources, and encouragement.

Rural hospital leaders and advocates in Pennsylvania are planning for the future, following passage of that huge federal tax cut spending bill in Washington. It cuts more than a trillion dollars from Medicaid over the next decade. The law also creates a $50 billion rural health grant program, but experts have concerns about that, too. A marathon negotiating session between the city of Philadelphia and its blue collar workers' union paid off, resulting in a tentative contract agreement. The strike lasted more than a week, resulting in trash piling up on city streets. Adams County Commissioners are reviewing new plans for historic preservation in the county and welcoming public comment through the end of the month. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials - known as ICE - is approving a Lancaster County police department application to join a task force program giving officers some immigration oversight. The Quarryville Police Department's application was approved Monday, clearing the way for officers to receive ICE training. Cumberland County Commissioners unanimously approved a nearly $3.7 million dollar capital project to upgrade its dispatch system. Mike Snyder, deputy director for 911 communications, says the county hopes to implement a new system in about 18 to 24 months. More than $50,000 worth of equipment is missing from a Lancaster County fire company. Christiana Fire Company president Michael Ross says intruders broke through the front door and stole vital rescue tools.

Playwright Michael Ross Albert joins Chris Tolley to discuss his acclaimed play The Bidding War and the personal experience that helped inspire it. Michael shares what it was like to buy his first home through an affordable housing program — a moment that felt like winning the lottery, but also brought intense financial fear and uncertainty. Despite finally finding a place to call his own, Michael opens up about the pressure of speculative real estate and how that anxiety found its way into his writing. He and Chris dive into why plays that make us laugh can also leave the deepest mark.The Bidding War is by Michael Ross Albert.

It is day eight of our 12 Nightmares Before Christmas. At 5:45 a.m. on May 12, 2005, Michael Ross woke up and got out of bed as usual. It was a partly cloudy morning in Somers, Connecticut, and the day would be warm and pleasant. At 6:00 a.m., Michael had oatmeal for breakfast, then watched television and read the newspaper. After reading for a while, he received communion from a Catholic priest. The day was going well—pretty typical for him, actually. He visited with family and friends in the afternoon for a few hours. The only thing unusual about Michael's dinner of turkey a la king, rice, fruit, mixed vegetables, and white bread was that it would be his last because, a few hours later, Michael Ross was executed by the state of Connecticut. It was the first execution in the state of Connecticut since Joseph “Mad Dog” Taborsky was electrocuted in 1960. Join Jen and Cam of Our True Crime Podcast on this episode entitled 'The Roadside Strangler: Michael Bruce Ross.'Thank you to our team:Written and researched by Lauretta AllenListener Discretion by Edward October from Octoberpod AMExecutive Producer Nico Vitesse of The Inky PawprintSources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mAMXqN0Eaw (If you watch or listen to one thing on Michael Ross, watch this one.

When Michael Ross Albert recently bought a condo in Toronto, he realized that the dream of homeownership is more like a nightmare. The Canadian playwright was inspired by his own and his friends' experiences of homeownership to write his new play, “The Bidding War.” The dark comedy chronicles several Torontonians trying to purchase the “last nice home” in the city. He joins Tom Power in the Q studio to discuss why our senses of hope and ambition get wrapped up into the search for a home and the current housing crisis that so many Canadians are facing.

This week, Ira spoke with Michael Ross Nugent, performing at Maxan Jazz October 19. In this episode of “Talk About Las Vegas With Ira,” Michael talks about his love of big band music as a teenager; when he was 16, he heard Michael Bublé for the first time; why he was an anomaly within his own generation; how he sees himself as an “old soul”; why he loves to sing in retirement communities; his decision to move to Las Vegas; his adventures driving 36 hours from Buffalo to Las Vegas with his sound equipment and suits; why he had only one gig on the books but did it for free; how his band teaches him things; how he would get a chance to introduce his music to his contemporaries at wed-dings; when he performs today, he wants to be nostalgic for the older crowd so they can reminisce, and introduce the music to the younger crowd; why he doesn't like to stay with a set list; the importance of discipline; and his strategy for performing in the future.

Despite promising to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the 2015 Paris Agreement, many governments maintain low gasoline taxes or even allow citizens to buy gasoline below market prices. UCLA professor Michael Ross explains why it has proven to be so hard to move away from gasoline subsidies and, more generally, why price-based fossil fuel policies are often politically unsustainable.

Everyone deserves access to basic financial services, no matter their political or religious beliefs, yet the list of de-banking victims is growing. Bank of America cancelled the account of Memphis-based Indigenous Advance Ministries, a Christian nonprofit that helps impoverished widows and children in Uganda. The Biden administration violated the First Amendment's guarantee of free speech by pressuring Facebook, Twitter, and Google into silencing dissenting voices on a wide range of hot-button issues. Michael Ross, legal counsel for the Corporate Engagement Team with ADF, addresses these high-profile cases.

Read the full transcript here. How does psychological time differ from clock time? How does a person's perception of time relate to their personal identity? How does a person's view of their past shape how they view their future? To what extent do people differ in the degree to which they feel like a single, continuous person across time? What effects does a person's perception of time have on their assessment of injustices? Why aren't there more adversarial collaborations in academia? Is academia generally politically left-leaning? How does lack of political diversity in academia compare to (e.g.) lack of gender or economic diversity? Are liberal or progressive academics openly willing to discriminate against conservative academics when, for example, the latter have opportunities for career advancement? Is anyone in the US actually calling for legal changes around free speech laws, or are they only discussing how people ought to be socially ostracized or punished for expressing certain viewpoints? And is there a meaningful difference between legal and social punishments for those who make illegal or taboo statements? Are we in the midst of an ideological war right now? And if so, ought we to quash in-group criticism to avoid giving ammunition to our ideological enemies? Academia seems to have hemorrhaged public trust over the last few decades; so what can be done to begin restoring that trust?Anne Wilson is a professor of social psychology at Wilfrid Laurier University. Much of her research focuses on self and identity over time both for individual self and collective identities like nation, race, and gender. Her work illuminates the often-motivated malleability of our reconstructions of the past, forecasts of the future, and subjective perceptions of time itself. Her broad focus on motivated reasoning and cognitive bias has also led to more recent research on intergroup misperception, political polarization, and how speech suppression and censorship can inhibit collective bias correction.
