Ryan is joined by the founder and CEO of Intelligo, Shlomo Mirvis. Intelligo focus on due diligence, business intelligence and risk management in SaaS form; they are on a mission to give businesses in the investment space the ability to run advanced background checks in a simple but incredibly effective way. Shlomo talks to Ryan all about who Intelligo are, whom they serve and the outcomes of their solution. Shlomo also talks about the importance of company culture as you grow and his single number one strategy for revenue growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS Intelligo's primary go-to-market approach is from two avenues, direct sales including inbound and outbound and partnerships. The partnerships that Intelligo focus on are those who also sell to the same organisations as them, their competitors, which is usually any law, accountant or consultant firm. They also work with background check companies whom they don't see as competition, as their own platform is unique and allows those companies to improve efficiency and customer value. White labelling their solution is something that Intelligo are considering for the future. Intelligo aren't simply a background check company, they also manage risk, they look after everything from running reports to managing data and compliance. Comprehensive background checks and due diligence investment processes are the niches that Intelligo decided to focus on for their platform's unique solution. Shlomo wanted to enable trust at scale and help those who have previously been ‘burnt'. By building Intelligo he has made the process of due diligence and risk management simpler and safer for all involved in investing. It's essential to focus on a niche in the early stages of a business, to allow the company to build perfect product-market fit before expanding. The best and most effective strategy for revenue growth is to provide value from all angles. Happy clients also mean great referrals, and providing value allowed Intelligo to grow. As a CEO, Shlomo asks himself how he and his team can create a learning environment, where people aren't afraid to take risks. BEST MOMENTS “We're unique in the background check industry, we're not just a background check company but a risk management platform” “We chose to focus on a very unique niche” “93% of series A companies don't make it to series B” “We have a very good product market fit, clients are very happy” “We live in a world of too much data” “The best most effective strategy is providing value” Do You Want The Closing Secrets That Helped Close Over $125 Million in New Business for Free?"

Stanley Mirvis' The Jews of Eighteenth-Century Jamaica: A Testamentary History of a Diaspora in Transition (Yale University Press, 2020) offers an in-depth look at the Portuguese Jews of Jamaica and their connections to broader European and Atlantic trade networks. Based on last wills and testaments composed by Jamaican Jews between 1673 and 1815, this book explores the social and familial experiences of one of the most critical yet understudied nodes of the Atlantic Portuguese Jewish Diaspora. Stanley Mirvis examines how Jamaica's Jews worked as traders, planters, pen keepers, physicians, fishermen, and metalworkers, and reveals how they remained both rooted in local Jamaican contexts as well as part of the larger Atlantic Jewish Diasporic community and networks. R. Grant Kleiser is a Ph.D. candidate in the Columbia University History Department. His dissertation researches the development of the free-port system in the eighteenth-century Caribbean, investigating the rationale for such moves towards “free trade” and the impact these policies had on subsequent philosophers, policy-makers, and revolutionaries in the Atlantic world.

The Tower of Babel Show Notes: Joining Mark this week is Rabbi Simcha Mirvis, Director of the Tsfat Legacy Center and Vice President of Education for Nachal Novea. Rabbi Mirvis has devoted his life to engaging and inspiring a diverse range of people in Israel and abroad, and is dedicated to connecting people with the soulful wisdom of Tsfat. The scripture passage which he has chosen for today is Genesis 11:3. In this episode, Mark and Rabbi Mirvis engage in a dynamic discussion which begins by looking at the Rabbi’s journey from his birthplace in Memphis to his current role at Tsfat, moves on to revealing the context of this scripture passage, and then explores the wide ranging implications and lessons to be learned from this rich text. Insights regarding technology, the relationship between the individual and society, diversity and uniformity, Abraham’s significance, and the very meaning of Babel itself abound during this fascinating and enlightening analysis. As you listen, you will discover that Mark and Rabbi Mirvis are, indeed, kindred spirits in their desire and ability to ‘unearth the practical and inspirational truth of the Torah’, and today’s episode provides a truly memorable example of this fact. Episode Highlights: Rabbi Mirvis’ journey from growing up in Memphis to his current role at Tsfat The context of Genesis 11:3 Insights from this passage regarding the ramifications of today’s technology, the relationship between the individual and society, diversity vs. uniformity, and Abraham’s significance in contrast to the tower The meaning of Babel and its significance Two important lessons that Rabbi Mirvis has learned Quotes: “Man is given the opportunity to destroy the world, create the world, do anything with the world.” “Sometimes in our effort to survive and to protect ourselves, we’re actually inflicting damage on our own future.” “Perhaps the first technological development in the history of mankind.” “Abraham was born the year the tower was built.” “In the confused heterogeneous tapestry of society, that’s where each fragment refracts a different truth of the Divine Light.” “The focus on eternal values puts everything else in perspective.” Genesis 11:3 They said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and burn them hard.”—Brick served them as stone, and bitumen served them as mortar. https://www.sefaria.org/Genesis.11.3?lang=bi&aliyot=0 Links: The Rabbi’s Husband homepage: http://therabbishusband.com/ Mark’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/markgerson?lang=en The Tsfat Legacy Center homepage: https://www.tsfatlegacy.org/
My class for the Ray Society of Drake University on current events, December 2019. Looking at Rabbi Mirvis' letter before elections in Britain. Discussing impeachment. Rising Antisemitism, including on college campuses.
In the headlines this week was Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth, Ephraim Mirvis. Just weeks before the general election he made it clear that he believed Jeremy Corbyn was unfit to become PM because of his record on dealing with anti-Semitism within the Labour party - though Mr Corbyn said the party had taken "rapid and effective" action. Edward Stourton traces the Chief Rabbi's story, which begins with a childhood in apartheid South Africa. His tenure as Chief Rabbi has been marked by a few liberalising initiatives, which have ruffled feathers and caused some disquiet within the wider Jewish community. But observers might wonder if the initiatives have gone far enough. He is used to controversy within his own community, but unused to being in the wider public's gaze. So what persuaded Ephraim Mirvis to enter the political fray and what does his intervention tell us about the man? Producer: Rosamund Jones
Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn struggled Tuesday to defuse harsh criticism about anti-Semitism leveled at both himself and the party by Britain’s chief rabbi.In what was arguably his most difficult day in the general election campaign so far, Corbyn faced a multitude of questions over Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis’ damaging remarks in The Times newspaper.The influential rabbi implied that Corbyn was unfit for high office and that Labour’s efforts to tackle anti-Semitism were a “mendacious fiction.” The “overwhelming majority” of Britain’s Jews, he added, were “gripped by anxiety” about Corbyn’s possible election.“A new poison, sanctioned from the top, has taken root in the Labour Party,” he said.While voicing his disapproval of all forms of racism, including anti-Semitism, Corbyn declined repeatedly to apologize during a prime-time BBC interview for any anti-Semitism that has occurred in the Labour Party over the past few years."We will not allow anti-Semitism in any form in our society because it is poisonous and divisive, just as much as Islamophobia or far-right racism is," Corbyn said in the interview with the veteran BBC broadcaster Andrew Neil.Corbyn insisted he had "strengthened” Labour’s processes on how to deal with anti-Semitism in the party since a written warning was given to a member who questioned the number of people who died in the Holocaust.“There are a very, very small number of people in the Labour Party that have been sanctioned as a result of complaints about their anti-Semitic behavior,” Corbyn said. “As far as I’m concerned one is one too many and I’ve ensured action (has been) taken on that.”The ongoing questions about anti-Semitism have damaged traditionally strong ties between Britain’s Jews and the Labour Party, prompting many members to quit the party in disgust. Anti-Semitism is cited as one of the main reasons by many people as to why they won’t vote for Labour in the Dec. 12 general election.The rabbi’s broadside represented a break from his traditional position of not commenting on party politics. Though Corbyn has been repeatedly criticized for tolerating anti-Jewish comments from party members, he’s not faced anything quite so acute from someone in the Jewish community’s hierarchy.At a campaign event earlier, Corbyn sought to allay concerns by insisting that if he becomes prime minister, he wants to lead a government that has an “open door” to all faith leaders.He said he would invite Mirvis and other religious leaders “to come talk to us about what their concerns are” and said no community would feel at risk because of their faith.Corbyn, 70, has long been a champion of Palestinian rights and critical of the Israeli government. He has at times appeared to be sympathetic to the grievances of groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah.The rabbi’s damaging column was published on the day Labour was launching its “race and faith” platform as part of its campaign to win voters with its views on tolerance and equality.The left-wing party pledged in its platform to teach children about the legacy of the British empire, including slavery and colonialism, and also says it will treat attacks on places of worship as a specific aggravated offense.Outside the launch event, protesters put up anti-Labour posters including one that read, “a vote for Labour is a vote for racism.”Mirvis’ was not echoed by the whole Jewish community.Alf Dubs, a Labour member of the House of Lords who came to Britain in the 1930s as a child refugee fleeing the Nazi, said he believed the attack had been "unjustified and unfair".Others from across the religious spectrum backed Mirvis.Louise Ellman, a former Labour legislator who quit the party over the issue, said the chief rabbi’s column reflects “widespread concern and anxiety” across the mainstream Jewish community.“The reason I have left the Labour Party is because I cannot ask people to vote for Jeremy Corbyn as prime minister while we have a Labour Party...

Imagine turning 40 and being afraid to drive on the highway. Being afraid of the freedom that might bring. Afraid of breaking with a strict religious tradition in which you grew up. Tova Mirvis did just that. Married at 22 to a man she dated for just 12 weeks, Mirvis knew she risked leaving everything behind—including her identity as a mother and a community member-- if she walked away from her tightly knit Orthodox jewish community. But she did it and wrote the book, “The Book of Separation” (https://amzn.to/2C3yGuE). Mirvis explains to CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour: “What happens when you reach a change moment—it feels like you’re jumping off a skyscraper,” she says.

Phil describes the four types of social innovation strategies that businesses adopt and the ways in which they energize employees while boosting business results. They discuss the changing demographics of the workplace, how Millennials in particular are keenly focused on doing good as an integral part of their work, and how engagement in social innovations enriches employees’ lives by enhancing their sense of purpose.

Ryan Mirvis (@RyanMirvis) is the festival queen. There's nobody who personifies good times at music festivals like Mirv. He met me at the Comedy Store the day after Mitzi's memorial to break down all his theories about having a blast at festivals. That means drugs. That means sex. That means music music music. And that means drugs. Also drugs. If you're on the fence about going to a festival near you this year, this podcast should throw you over the top.
Tova Mirvis, the author of A Book of Separation: A Memoir, made the choice to both divorce and to leave her orthodox faith and her community. Raised in an orthodox Jewish community in Memphis, Tennessee she grew up feeling like there was a set path for her; one that her family was part of and one that was always expected would be her own. She knew from a young age that to stay inside a religious community meant she’d always have this sense of community and identity of who she was supposed to be in the world. Trying very hard to be that person, she married at a young age, had children, and was part of a very religious community where every choice was mapped out for her. Yet, she had a quiet whisper of doubt for many years — Is this what you really believe? Is this who you really are? Afraid of what might happen if she let herself answer those hard questions, and how she’d change, she didn’t. Until she did. She experienced a growing awareness that who she was on the outside didn’t match who she was on the inside and it became impossible for her to navigate the feeling that she was two separate people She wasn’t living a life she believed and it was inconsistent with who she thought she was. And so, she made a change to live differently than she had before. During our conversation she discusses how whenever one of us in a family dynamic changes, it changes everyone around us. She couldn’t stay a person who wasn’t going to think about hard questions and pretend so she could belong. Part of making a change is accepting that pain and responsibility, and feeling the sadness and sometimes the guilt that goes along with knowing that you’re the one who changed something. Would we ever want our children to not change and to feel like they are incapable of change? Choosing to change affects those around us, but is that a bad thing? Listen to Tova’s wisdom about change, identity and belonging.

After discussing the recent Florida shooting, FFRF’s "In Science We Trust" billboard in Atlanta, and hearing a child prompted by parents to call FFRF to tell us we are "going to hell," we talk with novelist Tova Mirvis, whose newest book, The Book of Separation, is a moving memoir about divorcing not only her husband, but her entire Orthodox Jewish faith.

He filled me in about the whole Burning Man culture and, honestly, I kind of want to go. He's so enthusiastic about the Burner life that it really painted a picture for those of us who have never been. We laughed a lot and we had some really sentimental, emotional moments.
