Is it possible to build community within AI? Can we challenge search engines to put humanity and the truth at the forefront of their outputs? According to Troy Snyder, astrology student turned entrepreneur, the answer is ... maybe. In this episode, Tessa Burg and Troy examine the balance between technology and humanity. They discuss the challenges of having AI determine what is “true,” how brands can stay authentic and build trust in an increasingly automated world, and even how to view AI through an astrology lens.  Leader Generation is hosted by Tessa Burg and brought to you by Mod Op.  About Troy Snyder: For more than three decades, Troy has operated at the frontier of digital innovation—helping to guide the evolution of streaming from early SD pipelines to HD, 4K, the first waves of VR, and early AI efforts—while studying the timeless frameworks that have shaped human understanding for thousands of years. Troy has led the creation of authentication systems, video CMS architectures, large-scale distribution networks and multiband rural wireless. He has also contributed to emerging AI-driven digital identity tools with Mebot.ai where “Human AI” and how we create true lifelike representations of self in the AI age is explored. Beyond his work in digital innovation, Troy is committed to long-term social impact. He serves as founder and chairman for Wonderful Foundations, a charity that owns and supports 27 schools serving more than 15,000 kids. This effort reflects Troy's belief that technology and infrastructure should exist in service of human potential. In addition to being a technologist, Troy is also a practicing Vedic astrologer whose work spans invention, executive leadership, creative production, fundraising and systems engineering, always with an eye toward the deeper patterns that connect technology, people and purpose.

Trotz starker Marken wie Nescafé, Mövenpick oder Wagner-Pizza sehen viele Analysten Nestlé aktuell kritisch. Wir erklären, warum das Wachstum stockt, welche strukturellen Probleme den Konzern belasten und wieso selbst Premiumprodukte nicht mehr automatisch Stabilität garantieren. Besonders relevant: Die Folgen niedriger Geburtenraten, der Preisdruck durch Eigenmarken und eine Bilanz, die von Übernahmen und Abschreibungen gezeichnet ist. Dieses Video zeigt, weshalb erfahrene Anleger derzeit Zurückhaltung üben – und worauf sie vor einem Neueinstieg warten.

C'est dans les pages du Monde et sur les ondes de Radio France que l'affaire éclate, le 30 janvier 2024. Les deux médias révèlent une fraude colossale opérée depuis plusieurs années par les producteurs d'eau en bouteille. En particulier par le groupe Nestlé, numéro un du secteur.Le groupe, qui commercialise les marques Hépar, Contrex, Vittel et Perrier, a utilisé des traitements et des filtres sur ses eaux de sources, pourtant censées être naturellement pures, afin de conserver le label d'eaux minérales naturelles. Car en réalité les sources Nestlé, dans le Gard et dans les Vosges, sont polluées par des bactéries, des pesticides et des PFAS, les polluants chimiques éternels. Cette fraude aurait rapporté trois milliards d'euros au groupe Nestlé.L''enquête des journalistes révèle plus grave encore : l'Etat, mis au courant de cette fraude dès 2021, n'a rien fait pour l'empêcher et a même aidé Nestlé à la dissimuler.Comment cette fraude est-elle devenue une affaire d'Etat ? La santé des consommateurs a-t-elle été mise en danger ? Va-t-il y avoir des sanctions ? Réponses dans cet épisode du podcast « l'Heure du Monde » avec Stéphane Mandard, journaliste au service Planète du Monde qui suit le dossier depuis plusieurs mois.Un épisode d'Adélaïde Tenaglia. Réalisation : Thomas Zeng. Présentation et suivi éditorial : Claire Leys.

It's becoming more and more popular to take a pet to work. We're looking at the advantages and disadvantages of pets at work. Now, you say pets, it's mainly dogs though, isn't it? Yes, yes.带宠物上班变得越来越流行。我们今天来看一下宠物在工作场所的利与弊。你说宠物，其实主要是指狗，对吧？是的，是的。Now, Nestlé's corporate headquarters in Gatwick, Richard, they've allowed dogs to come to work for a couple of years now, okay? The dogs aren't working, though. No, the dogs aren't working. And they claim three key benefits.现在，说到雀巢在盖特威克的公司总部，Richard，他们允许员工带狗上班已经有好几年了。狗当然不是来“上班”的。对，狗并不会工作。他们认为这带来了三个主要好处。Oh, right. Can you guess what those could be? Well, I think with dogs, the overall feeling in the office is maybe more relaxed, it relaxes the workforce. Yep, yep.哦，好的。你能猜到是什么吗？嗯，我觉得有狗在办公室，整体气氛会更轻松，有助于让员工放松。嗯，对。They say people are seen to be friendlier. Hmm, I can see that. Yeah, and more approachable if there's a dog present in the office.他们说，有狗在办公室时，人们看起来会更友善。嗯，我能理解。是的，而且也更容易接近。Hmm. Okay, something else? Friendlier but also maybe calms people down, they give the animals a stroke, something like that. So it lowers the heart rate.嗯。好，还有别的吗？更友好之外，可能还能让人冷静下来，比如摸摸狗之类的行为，会降低心率。Yeah, it does. Well done, Richard. They say the dogs lower stress.对，确实如此。说得好，Richard。他们说狗能减轻压力。Lower stress, exactly. That's what I was thinking. So yeah, lower heart rate and lower blood pressure.减轻压力，对，就是这个。我刚刚也在想。所以，心率更低，血压也更低。And also those who work on their own feel less lonely. Okay, yep, that's true. They say what happens is that someone will go up to someone who's got a dog ride, and they'll say, you know, can I take your dog for a walk? So they have these kind of brief positive exchanges with people they would not normally speak to.此外，那些独自工作的人会觉得没那么孤单。好的，是的，这是真的。他们说经常会有人走到养狗的同事身边，问能不能带狗出去散步？于是就会有一些简短但积极的互动，而这些人平时可能根本不会交谈。Right, yes, yes, I can see that. Now that's all well and good, Jackie, but also I can see a few negative things in the background. For a start, well, two things, the dogs not getting on with each other.好，是的，我能理解。但这些都是优点，Jackie。不过我也能想到一些潜在的缺点。首先，有两点，比如狗之间可能相处不好。Yes, okay, that's one thing that they've taken into consideration. They say that there's a three-month probationary period. Okay, so the dogs have to kind of pass the test.是的，他们确实考虑到了这一点。他们设定了三个月的试用期。也就是说狗必须通过这个“测试”。So if they don't get on with the other dogs, after a while, they're not allowed to come. And productivity. I know I've been in an office where people smoke, and people go out for a cigarette for five minutes, and they're gone for half an hour.如果一段时间后它和别的狗相处不好，那就不能再来了。还有生产力问题。我以前在某个办公室，人们说出去抽五分钟烟，结果半小时才回来。With dogs, maybe people have to take them out to do their business, and maybe they've gone for a walk for half an hour or even longer.带狗上班的话，人们可能要带它们出去“方便”，结果可能也是半小时甚至更久。Yeah, but I think they'll be at lunchtime, Richard. But also, you see, linked to that, people are doing more exercise because they're taking the dog for a walk.是的，但我想这些通常会在午餐时间进行，Richard。而且你看，从另一个角度讲，人们因为带狗散步反而运动更多了。Yes, I suppose so. And also, what about the smell or people who are allergic to dogs?嗯，我想也是。不过，那味道怎么办？还有对狗过敏的人呢？Very good point. They have considered all of these things, Richard, and there are areas where the dogs are not allowed to go.提得很好。他们也考虑到了这些问题，Richard，所以办公室里有一些区域是禁止狗进入的。There are specific no-go areas. But they're loose in other places? Yeah, loose in certain areas, yeah. But they're under control, Richard.有专门的禁入区域。那在其他地方就自由活动？是的，在一些区域可以自由活动。但仍然在控制范围内，Richard。They wouldn't be our dogs then, that's for sure. Oh, come on. You see, all she would do is sleep all day underneath the chair, which is where she is right now.那就绝对不是我们的狗了。哎呀，别这样。你知道她一整天都会在椅子底下睡觉，就像现在一样。Right, okay, I suppose so, yes. And Betty wouldn't pass, so she wouldn't be able to go.好吧，我想也是。而 Betty 肯定通不过试用期，所以她不能来。Yes, well, you've almost sold me on that, but I have to say I'm still a little bit... I'm not so sure.是的，你差不多说服我了，但我还是有点……不太肯定。I'd like to experience it first. Well, you're right, Richard. There were certainly plenty of reservations before they started to do this, right? How long have they been going now? For a couple of years now.我想先亲身体验一下。你说得没错，Richard。他们刚开始实施的时候也确实顾虑重重。那他们实行多久了？已经好几年了。But now when they ask staff how they feel about it, they are overwhelmingly positive about the experience and the staff are very happy, including people who said that they were allergic to dogs themselves.但现在，当他们询问员工的感受时，大家的反馈几乎全是正面的，员工都非常满意，包括那些自称对狗过敏的人。Well, that's fantastic. Well, we certainly allow dogs in our office and we shall continue to do that as well.太好了。那我们办公室当然也要继续允许带狗上班.

Massenentlassungen, BIP-Rückgang und viel Unsicherheit: Die Schweizer Wirtschaft kämpft mit Problemen. Aus der Politik werden einerseits Forderungen nach einer Entlastung der Unternehmen laut. Andererseits kritisieren die Gewerkschaften die stagnierenden Löhne. Was ist zu tun? Die Schweizer Wirtschaft steht unter Druck. Die kürzlich publizierten Zahlen des Staatssekretariats für Wirtschaft (Seco) zeigen: Das Bruttoinlandprodukt ist im dritten Quartal 2025 um 0,5 Prozent gesunken. Gleichzeitig streichen grosse Firmen wie Novartis, Selecta oder Nestlé insgesamt mehrere hundert Stellen in der Schweiz. Was ist los mit der Schweizer Wirtschaft? Ist die Talsohle erreicht oder ist ein weiterer Rückgang der Wirtschaftsleistung zu befürchten? Und welche Rolle spielt dabei der Zollstreit mit den USA? Die Entwicklungen beeinflussen nicht nur die Arbeitslosenquote, sondern auch die Löhne. Der Gewerkschaftsbund fordert, dass es bei den Löhnen aufwärts geht. Der Arbeitgeberverband warnt: Es brauche Augenmass bei der Lohnrunde. Doch wie steht es tatsächlich um die Kaufkraft der Angestellten? Nimmt sie zu oder ab? Bund will Unternehmen entlasten Der Bundesrat hat vergangene Woche ein Paket von 28 Massnahmen verabschiedet, das zur regulatorischen Entlastung der Unternehmen führen soll. Zu den Massnahmen gehören unter anderem Entlastungen bei der Anmeldung von Kurzarbeit oder im Bereich der Mehrwertsteuer, der Verrechnungs- und der Stempelsteuer. Macht der Bund genug für die Unternehmen oder muss er die Bürokratie weiter abbauen? Und wie steht es um die Angestellten? Gemäss der Gesundheitsbefragung 2025 der CSS fühlen sich 69 Prozent der Befragten häufig erschöpft und müde. Muss die Politik Arbeitnehmende stärker schützen? Zu diesen Fragen begrüsst Sandro Brotz am 5. Dezember 2025 in der «Arena»: – Franziska Ryser, Nationalrätin Grüne/SG; – Benjamin Giezendanner, Nationalrat SVP/AG; – Daniel Lampart, Chefökonom Schweizerischer Gewerkschaftsbund; und – Stefan Brupbacher, Direktor Swissmem.

Während das KI-Kartell die größte Finanzblase der Geschichte kreiert, schafft die Oligarchie mit Social Impact Investitionen, Natural Asset Companies, Debt-for-Nature-Swaps und »Zahlungen für Ökosystemleistungen« neue Finanzinstrumente, die uns Menschen und den »vollen wirtschaftlichen Wert der Natur« zu handelbaren »Finanzströmen« machen.Ein Standpunkt von Tom-Oliver Regenauer.In einem von der Stanford Universität gelöschten Interview sagte Eric Schmidt, ehemaliger CEO von Google, im August 2024, dass wir »keine Ahnung hätten, was da auf uns zukommt«. Denn der Kapitalismus werde die Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) nicht überleben, so Schmidt. Und es zeichnet sich immer deutlicher ab, dass er damit Recht hatte. Denn die sozioökonomischen Strukturen bröckeln. Voran geht, wie so oft, Amerika. Im Oktober 2025 gab Amazon, zweitgrößter Arbeitgeber der Vereinigten Staaten, bekannt, dass der Abbau von 30.000 Arbeitsplätzen anstehe. IBM will 12.000 Mitarbeiter entlassen. UPS 48.000 – 34.000 davon in der Logistik und 14.000 in der Verwaltung. Der Öl-Gigant ConocoPhillips wird weltweit bis zu 25 Prozent seiner Stellen abbauen. General Motors kürzt 3.000, Paramount 2.600, Target 1.800, Verizon 13.000, Lufthansa 4.000, Nestlé 16.000, Novo Nordisk 9.000, Intel 24.500 und Microsoft 9.000 Stellen. Et cetera. Hosted on Acast.

En Haïti, les habitants de Pont-Sondé ont subi à nouveau samedi soir (29 novembre 2025) les assauts meurtriers du gang Gran Grif, considéré par l'ONU comme le plus violent de la région. Dans cette localité du Bas-Artibonite, plus d'une dizaine de personnes sont mortes et une vingtaine de maisons ont été incendiées, selon un bilan encore provisoire communiqué par des organisations locales. Le 3 octobre 2024 déjà, le gang Gran Grif avait fait plus de 70 morts à Pont-Sondé. Hier (2 décembre 2025), la ville était presque déserte. Selon plusieurs témoignages recueillis par Ronel Paul, l'attaque de ce week-end a été encore plus violente que la précédente. Si le gang Gran Grif s'acharne ainsi contre Pont-Sondé, c'est parce que c'est «une zone stratégique», explique le journaliste de RFI. Les criminels cherchent à contrôler le marché de cette localité ainsi que des axes routiers essentiels.   San Francisco contre la malbouffe et les aliments ultratransformés San Francisco a lancé ce mardi (2 décembre) une procédure judiciaire contre Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Mars ou bien encore Nestlé. Au total, ce sont 10 géants des aliments ultratransformés qui sont visés. «10 entreprises qui fabriquent certains des aliments et des boissons les plus populaires du pays», note le New York Times. Ces produits ultratransformés aux emballages colorés représentent 70% de ce que l'on trouve dans les supermarchés étasuniens, précise encore le quotidien. Et ils sont responsables d'une «crise nationale de santé publique», écrit le San Francisco Standard. L'obésité, le diabète de type 2, des maladies cardiovasculaires, le cancer et une détérioration cognitive... voilà les problèmes de santé liés à la consommation de cette malbouffe, précise le quotidien argentin Infobae. Des problèmes de santé qui plombent les finances de San Francisco, peut-on lire dans la plainte déposée par la ville démocrate. Selon le San Francisco Standard, la ville accuse ces entreprises d'avoir chimiquement conçu ses produits afin de rendre les gens addicts, de les commercialiser de manière trompeuse en les présentant comme nutritifs et de cibler les communautés noires et latinos.Difficile de dire si cette plainte va aboutir. Mais le San Francisco Standard fait remarquer que la ville a déjà enregistré, par le passé, des victoires en matière de santé publique. Autre signe encourageant : le ministre de la Santé, Robert Kennedy Junior, est lui aussi contre la nourriture ultratransformée.   Inquiétudes au sujet des tensions à la frontière entre le Pérou et le Chili Samedi 29 novembre, le Pérou a déclaré l'état d'urgence face à une arrivée de migrants, essentiellement vénézuéliens, en provenance de son voisin. Des migrants inquiets après les menaces du candidat de l'extrême droite à la présidentielle chilienne, José Antonio Kast qui promet des expulsions massives s'il remporte le second tour qui se tiendra le 14 décembre, rappelle El Comercio. Lundi (1er décembre), les ministres des Affaires étrangères des deux pays se sont vus pour définir «une réponse migratoire bilatérale». Ils se sont mis d'accord sur plusieurs mesures : patrouilles communes à la frontière, renforcement des échanges d'informations entre les deux pays et création d'un comité qui se réunira dès la semaine prochaine...Le quotidien péruvien rappelle que, depuis plusieurs années, les deux voisins entretiennent «une relation saine» et ont développé «des liens économiques et sociaux» forts. Il ne faudrait pas qu'un plan d'expulsions massives vienne affecter cette bonne entente, s'inquiète El Comercio qui presse les autorités péruviennes d'agir sans attendre le 14 décembre. Le pays doit anticiper «une possible vague migratoire en provenance du Chili» et doit être en mesure de garantir la maîtrise de ses frontières tout en respectant les droits des migrants. «Il n'y a que comme ça que le Pérou pourra protéger ses intérêts nationaux tout en défendant la dignité humaines des sans-papiers», insiste El Comercio.   Comment Nicolas Maduro a renforcé sa sécurité En public, Nicolas Maduro apparaît souriant, détendu, nonchalant même. Il danse et poste des vidéos de propagande sur TikTok, raconte le New York Times. En privé, le président au pouvoir depuis 12 ans et qui ne compte pas partir, prend ses précautions.  Il est toujours aussi présent dans la vie des Vénézuéliens, s'adressant à eux presque tous les jours. Mais «il participe de moins en moins à des événements prévus et à des émissions en direct, préférant les apparitions surprises et les messages enregistrés à l'avance», souligne le New York Times.Autre mesure de sécurité : Nicolas Maduro change de téléphones portables et de lits, enfin d'endroits où il dort régulièrement, écrit le journal. Nicolas Maduro, qui craint d'être trahi, a également donné plus de poids à ses gardes-du-corps cubains et a augmenté le nombre d'agents du renseignement cubains dans les rangs de l'armée vénézuélienne, révèle également le quotidien.Pour Nicolas Maduro, la menace vient surtout de l'intérieur. «La plus grande crise (que connaît le régime), c'est une crise de légitimité», estime dans les colonnes du New York Times, Andrés Izarra, ancien ministre de Nicolas Maduro, qui a rompu avec le régime et vit désormais en exil. Nicolas Maduro a perdu les élections de l'été dernier (2024) et le soutien du peuple. Mais il est dans le déni complet et refuse d'admettre que le pays le déteste, ajoute Andrès Izarra. Selon lui, même si les navires de guerre américains s'en vont, les problèmes de Nicolas Maduro ne seront pas terminés.   Au Venezuela, les cryptomonnaies pour préserver son pouvoir d'achat Au Venezuela, l'économie se dégrade de nouveau. Le pays a renoué avec une inflation à trois chiffres et le bolivar se dévalue tous les jours. Si, à une époque, les autorités avaient décidé d'autoriser l'usage du dollar pour rassurer la population, aujourd'hui, ce sont les cryptomonnaies qui servent de refuge. C'est un dossier de notre correspondante à Caracas, Alice Campaignolle.   Le journal de la 1ère En Guadeloupe, la procureure de la République a donné des précisions au sujet du meurtre d'un psychiatre au Gosier.

Season 8 of Lessons I Learned in Law continues in partnership with Wordsmith AI, the legal-AI platform built for in-house teams.This week, Scott is joined by Stephanie Lopes, Chief Legal Officer at Volt.io, the UK-based fintech scale-up powering global instant payments through open banking. Stephanie joined Volt after a decade in the tech transactions team at Bird & Bird, where she worked closely with the founders from their earliest days and even drafted Volt's first client contract.In this conversation—recorded just weeks before she goes on maternity leave—Stephanie reflects on her four years helping Volt grow from around 40 employees to more than 150. She shares how secondments across organisations like the Bank of England, Nestlé, and ABB shaped her understanding of what good (and not-so-good) in-house looks like, and how that experience gave her the confidence to join the business post-Series A.Her lessons shine a light on modern, commercial in-house practice: the importance of clear communication, especially when working cross-functionally; the courage to hold your values, particularly when ethical questions arise at executive level; and embracing your role as a business leader, not just a lawyer—balancing legal judgment with product, people, and operational understanding.Stephanie also discusses preparing her team for her upcoming leave, implementing tools like Ironclad, using AI thoughtfully (including for tone in emails), and the unexpected joy of running an Instagram-famous household of guinea pigs.Guest Recommendations

Les poudres de lait ré-engraissées sont des poudres qui sont fabriquées à partir de lait écrémé, auquel on ajoute de l'huile végétale. Ces poudres de lait sont exportées sur le continent africain, aussi bien déjà conditionnées pour la vente au détail ou en vrac, dans des sacs de 25 kg. Le marché est porteur et a attiré ces dernières années des pays qui sont devenus des plaque-tournantes de ce commerce. Ces dix dernières années, la Malaisie et les Émirats arabes unis ont vu bondir leurs exportations de poudres ré-engraissées vers l'Afrique. Pourtant ce ne sont pas des exportateurs de lait. La traçabilité est très difficile à établir, explique Christian Corniaux, chercheur au Cirad, car dans certains pays un même code douanier englobe plusieurs produits, mais on sait que ces deux pays importent de Nouvelle-Zélande et d'Australie ces poudres qu'on appelle MGV, avant de les réexporter sous leur propre marque.  L'essor est tel qu'en dix ans la Malaisie a vu ses exportations totales bondir, en valeur, de 66 % - pour 372 millions de dollars-, selon le dernier Baromètre 2025 des agricultures africaines publié par l'Afdi (Agriculteurs français et développement international), Farm (Fondation pour l'agriculture et la ruralité dans le monde) et la Pafo (Organisation panafricaine des agricultures). Aux Émirats arabes unis, le taux a explosé : +277 % - pour 333 millions de dollars. Dans ce pays, on partait de très bas, mais la tendance est sans appel. En parallèle, les exportations directes continuent, l'Europe et la Nouvelle-Zélande restent des fournisseurs majeurs de produits laitiers à l'Afrique. Intérêt grandissant pour le marché africain Le continent est un terrain où les débouchés sont garantis. Sur les 20 dernières années, la consommation de produits laitiers en Afrique de l'Ouest a en effet triplé alors que la production locale n'a fait que doubler. Si on ajoute à cela, une population qui va être multipliée par deux ces 25 prochaines années dans cette région d'Afrique, et une consommation de lait entier qui baisse au profit des poudres ré-engraissées, les perspectives commerciales sont séduisantes. On ne parle pas d'un produit qui rapporte beaucoup, rappelle Christian Corniaux, mais qui permet de réaliser des profits grâce aux volumes commercialisés. Les fournisseurs traditionnels ne suffiront plus Il est fort probable que les producteurs traditionnels de lait comme la Nouvelle-Zélande, ou l'Irlande, le Danemark et les Pays-Bas en Europe, ne suffisent plus pour répondre à la demande qui se profile en Afrique. Il faudra compter peut-être demain avec plus de poudre fabriquée en Amérique du Sud, ou alors en Inde, pays globalement à l'équilibre aujourd'hui, mais qui pourrait devenir un acteur sur le marché export. L'augmentation de la production de lait en Chine, permettra peut-être aussi, si le pays importe moins, de faire augmenter l'offre disponible sur le marché, et ainsi de répondre à la demande africaine croissante.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to us about all she's learned from the numerous guests on the show recently, from startup founders who build AI to simplify the chaotic insurance back office, to innovation leaders in Fortune 500 firms wrestling with ethics, regulation, and talent shortages. After dozens of conversations here's what Sabine has learned: AI isn't just changing our tools. It's changing our temperament. This episode is her reflection on those lessons; a guide for leaders and builders trying to navigate this new age of intelligence and unpacks five principles that define successful AI adoption. KEY TAKEAWAYS When Branch Insurance introduced AI into its claims process, something unexpected happened. It wasn't the customers who resisted, it was the adjusters. They were worried, not because AI made mistakes but because it didn't. When Lisa Bechtold's (who led AI governance at Zurich Insurance, now at Nestlé) team started implementing AI, they faced the classic dilemma: Move fast or move right. Lisa said: “We don't see governance as slowing innovation – we see it as enabling trust at speed.” ERGO Group worked with CamCom, a startup from India that uses computer vision to detect car damage from photos or drones. The tech was brilliant. The challenge? Integrating it into a multinational insurer's process. They didn't just hand over the product, they sat side by side – engineers, adjusters, compliance officers, even lawyers – to make it work. It took nearly a year to get from pilot to production and the result wasn't just faster claims; it was a new relationship model. The startup learned how corporates think. The corporate learned how startups move. That's the real win. After all the talk about data, systems, ethics, and pilots, what really matters is how humans evolve. AI won't replace people, but people who know how to use AI will replace people who don't. That's not a threat, it's an invitation. AI is already changing what we expect from talent. Claims adjusters now need to interpret AI outputs. Underwriters must question models. Leaders must learn to manage digital teammates. BEST MOMENTS  ‘Intelligent tool don't remove human judgment; they reveal it in higher resolution.'  ‘In this AI era, trust is the new currency.'‘Every AI dream dies in the shadow of bad data.'‘The irony is that the more intelligent our systems become, the more human our leadership must be. Empathy, creativity, ethics aren't data points, they're our differentiators.' ABOUT THE HOST Sabine is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur. She is the CEO and Managing Partner of Alchemy Crew a venture lab that accelerates the curation, validation, & commercialization of new tech business models. Sabine is renowned within the insurance sector for building some of the most renowned tech startup accelerators around the world working with over 30 corporate insurers, accelerated over 100 startup ventures. Sabine is the co-editor of the bestseller The INSURTECH Book, a top 50 Women in Tech, a FinTech and InsurTech Influencer, an investor & multi-award winner.

On this episode of Practical Pivots, marketing veteran Rachel Shayne, of B2B R&D, unpacks why “brand is your moat” and how the real challenge isn't besting your competitors, but cutting through marketplace confusion. From her insights working with technical founders, Shayne lays out her playbook for building resilient, memorable brands in complex industries. Whether you're leading a high-growth tech venture or steering strategy in a legacy sector, this interview offers the candid perspective and actionable inspiration today's business decision-makers crave.About Rachel Rachel Shayne is a fractional CMO and brand strategist known for translating complex clean-tech and energy science into market conviction.

"If you don't drive, you will be driven," says Natasha Madan, the head of marketing at Intuit Credit Karma. "You have to play offense, you cannot be playing defense." That leadership philosophy has helped Natasha navigate from marketing candy brands at Nestlé to building Prime's brand strategy at Amazon, and now helping millions of people make financial progress. She believes marketers struggle to connect brand marketing with growth marketing, creating a gap that limits their impact. Today on Building Better CMOs, she and Marketing + Media Alliance CEO Greg Stuart discuss why marketing needs to bridge brand and performance, how understanding consumer psychology drives breakthrough creative, and why leadership means making tough decisions people may not initially like. They also explore the deep relationship people have with money, the power of AI-driven personalization, and why clarity is kindness in both parenting and managing teams.

C dans l'air l'invité du 18 novembre 2025 avec Olivier Andrault, chargé de mission alimentation à l'UFC-Que Choisir. Aujourd'hui, le tribunal de Nanterre doit rendre sa décision sur la possibilité pour Nestlé Waters de poursuivre la commercialisation ou non de sa marque l'appellation eau minérale. Secoué depuis deux ans par les conditions d'embouteillage de son eau Perrier sur le site de Vergèze, Nestlé pourrait vivre un véritable coup de tonnerre : le groupe pourrait être contraint de retirer ses iconiques bouteilles vertes des rayons et des cuisines des restaurants. C'est en tout cas ce que demande l'UFC-Que choisir, qui doit être fixée sur sa procédure, lancée au printemps auprès du tribunal judiciaire de Nanterre, pour retirer et rappeler provisoirement les bouteilles de la marque."Pour nous, une tromperie persiste en l'état auprès des consommateurs sur l'appellation eau minérale naturelle de Perrier", selon Gwenaëlle Le Jeune, juriste pour l'association de consommateurs. "Après le rapport parlementaire de mai dernier sur les pratiques des embouteilleurs en France, on voyait mal comment ne pas réagir", ajoute-t-elle.Ce mardi, l'UFC-Que choisir lance également son opération "La goutte de trop". Elle vise à alerter sur une dégradation de la qualité de l'eau potable en France et sur les coûts exorbitants de la dépollution. Entre 2021 et 2025, le niveau de conformité des réseaux d'eaux potables en France s'est considérablement dégradé, selon l'UFC-Que choisir. D'après cette étude menée par l'UFC-Que Choisir rendue publique aujourd'hui, seuls 85% d'entre eux seraient conformes à la réglementation en vigueur.Olivier Andrault commentera la décision du tribunal de Nanterre sur la commercialisation des eaux Perrier sous l'appellation "eau minérale naturelle". Il nous donnera aussi les résultats de l'étude de l'UFC-Que choisir sur la qualité de l'eau potable en France, et nous exposera les propositions de l'association, qui lance sa campagne "La goutte de trop".

If you've been watching AI tools race into marketing and tech, but aren't sure what's hype and what's actually useful, this episode is for you.  Mod Op's Head of Technology in Calgary, Derek McBurney, unpacks how generative AI, code assistants and “vibe coding” are really changing the way digital experiences get built. He explains in plain language what AI code assistants actually do, when they genuinely speed teams up and when they quietly introduce bugs, tech debt or just plain slop. You'll hear concrete examples of using AI to handle tedious work—like transforming messy spreadsheets—so developers can spend more time on the creative, pixel-perfect experiences that matter most to customers. Derek also digs into how no-code and vibe-code tools are empowering marketers, designers and non-dev teammates to prototype real concepts quickly, without replacing the need for strong engineering fundamentals. Throughout the conversation, Derek keeps coming back to two big themes: ambition and responsibility. He shares practical guidance for CMOs and marketing leaders on setting guardrails, protecting proprietary code, avoiding skill erosion and deciding when to build vs buy in an AI-driven world. Leader Generation is hosted by Tessa Burg and brought to you by Mod Op.  About Derek McBurney: Derek is the Head of Technology at Evans Hunt, focusing on delivering meaningful digital experiences and sharing his knowledge about building the web for humans. He's been building websites ever since he first got online. At the age of 12, it was a fan site for the game Quake, with nothing more than a text editor to create some HTML. Now? Clients like Travel Alberta, Calgary Stampede, and Brookfield Residential, which compose builds using best-in-class technologies for performance, accessibility, and intuitive authoring to power beautiful and rich experiences.  About Tessa Burg: Tessa is the Chief Technology Officer at Mod Op and Host of the Leader Generation podcast.

A French court has rejected a demand by a consumer protection group to remove Perrier water bottles from markets over its "natural mineral water" labelling. It's the latest in a long-running scandal stemming from the revelation that Nestlé and other manufacturers had treated water illegally to remove contaminants while labelling their products as natural mineral water. But first, Airbus books a huge order of 150 A321neo jets from flydubai, in a deal worth €24 billion. 

Mid-market leaders are facing a once-in-a-generation opportunity with AI, and this episode shows how to capitalize on it.  John Powers, former CIO and Chief Transformation Officer at Deloitte and now Executive in Residence at Mod Op, shares practical ways to turn AI, data strategy and governance into real competitive advantage. He explains why smaller, more nimble companies can finally “punch above their weight,” how to spot the fastest wins and where custom, company-specific AI beats off-the-shelf tools. You'll hear how John partnered with Mod Op to stand up data leadership, why engineering the way you communicate makes AI dramatically more effective and how to rethink work so teams spend less time on administrative tasks and more time on growth.  If you're done “checking the AI box” and ready to drive measurable outcomes, this conversation gives you a clear path forward.

Today's Headlines: Hurricane Melissa tore through the Caribbean just as feared, leaving dozens dead and catastrophic damage across Jamaica, Cuba, and Haiti before weakening to a Category 1 on its way to the Bahamas. Nearly 80% of Jamaica is still without power, and hundreds remain missing across the islands. In Gaza, Israel resumed airstrikes that killed around 100 people after a soldier was shot in Rafah — but quickly announced the ceasefire was back on. Hamas says it's delaying the return of hostage remains in response to the strikes. Trump, meanwhile, is still globe-trotting — now in South Korea, where he announced the U.S. will share sensitive nuclear submarine technology, one of the country's most tightly guarded military secrets. This comes months after North Korea bragged about its own nuclear-powered sub. Back home, a new Pentagon memo ordered all 50 states, D.C., and U.S. territories to form “quick reaction forces” — over 23,000 National Guard troops trained for riot control — to respond to potential unrest. The administration also indicted its first Gen Z political figure: 26-year-old Illinois Democrat Kat Abughazaleh, charged with assaulting an ICE officer during a protest — charges that could carry up to 14 years in prison. On the money front, the Senate symbolically voted against Trump's 50% tariffs on Brazil (which won't actually change anything), the Fed cut interest rates another 0.25%, and the shutdown continues as millions risk losing food aid. The Dow hit a record 48,000 — mostly thanks to AI stocks — even as layoffs surge at UPS, Nestlé, and Amazon. And in some good news for once, philanthropist Mackenzie Scott donated $60 million to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and another $38 million to Alabama State University — the largest gift in the HBCU's 158-year history.

In tonight's What's New with ME, host Ali Mehdaoui covers the biggest global headlines with empathy, wit, and a neutral lens:

In this throwback episode, we have Grant Polachek,  head of branding at Squadhelp.com—a top‑rated naming platform serving over 20,000 clients ranging from early‑stage giants like Nestlé and Pepsi. Grant emphasized that effective branding sits at the intersection of copywriting, creativity, and business strategy, helping companies translate their vision into a compelling brand narrative. He outlines a simple yet powerful naming framework: start by clarifying who you are and what you aim to create (the business plan), identify your audience, decide the desired perception and tone, and then develop secondary branding elements that capture the core idea. Grant shares that their smart dashboard surfaces the four most critical naming factors, curates ideas, and delivers real‑time alerts, enabling rapid, data‑driven iterations that large companies now prefer over traditional agencies.

The News RundownSteve leads off with the latest tariff turmoil, as trade negotiations between the U.S. and Canada stall amid the Trump administration's response to an ad created and paid for by the Ontario government running in U.S. media whose key auto  sector is endangered by Trump trade policies. They also explore luxury corporate earnings, where Hermès continues to shine, while.  Gucci owner Kering struggles to regain footing. Meanwhile, Mattel falls short as retailers tighten orders ahead of the holidays.The discussion then turns to job cuts at Target, Amazon, GM, and Nestlé, revealing how automation, AI, and tariff pressures are reshaping corporate structures, before turning to  Amazon's plan to replace up to 600,000 roles with robotics. They also cover ChatGPT's meteoric rise to No. 2 in product search, challenging Google and signaling a shift in how consumers discover products.Throughout, they underscore the precariousness of retail confidence heading into the holiday season — from Tractor Supply's cautious guidance to Deckers' HOKA sales slowdown.Blank Canvas Strategy: Finding Retail's 'New Earth'In the second half, Steve introduces "Blank Canvas Strategy"— a methodology for retailers to reimagine their businesses from the ground up, free from legacy constraints. Unlike Blue Ocean Strategy, which focuses on discovering compltey untapped markets, this framework helps brands reinvent their core business models before disruption makes them irrelevant.Steve urges leaders to recognize when their "planet" (current business model and market domain) becomes uninhabitable, and to begin building "Earth Two" — an alternative growth destination. Together, the hosts examine why incremental change doomed once-iconic retailers like Blockbuster, Sears, and Pier 1, and how others like Dick's Sporting Goods and RH (Restoration Hardware) succeeded by boldly innovating their business designs.They close by discussing how executives can carve out time, treasure, and talent for R&D, overcome the fear of cannibalization, and lead with the courage to disrupt themselves before competitors do.After the focused content discussion it's on to the most remarkable stories of the week, including Walmart's massive commitment to deploying 90 million supply-chain sensors to track pallets and fresh-food products.The episode wraps with what needs to be on everyone's radar screens. One recommendation: keep your eyes on "GU" the first U.S. store fromUniqlo's parent company, Fast Retailing. Located in New York's Soho neighborhood, Gu is a bright, energetic space with "eye-poppingly good prices" and strong shopper buzz.

Cette semaine, je suis avec Jochen Peter Breuer, consultant en entreprise. Jochen a d'abord commencé une carrière de banquier à Paris. Originaire de Cologne, il a découvert sur le terrain, le fossé culturel existant entre Français et Allemands au travail. C'est ainsi qu'il a été sollicité pour créer des ponts entre les deux cultures. C'est cette démarche qui l'a amené ensuite à devenir consultant pour permettre aux managers Français et Allemands, notamment chez Airbus, de travailler ensemble de façon efficace en prenant conscience de leurs conditionnements. Avec le temps, Jochen a mis au point une véritable méthodologie. Que ce soit chez Air Liquide, Logitech, Pictet, Piguet-Galland ou Nestlé, il s'agit toujours pour lui de résoudre d'abord les problèmes émotionnels et les non-dits, pour que la performance arrive ensuite naturellement. Comment donc écouter ce qui n'est pas dit ? C'est la question de la semaine.
