Silence online isn't neutral anymore; it's a risk you can't afford.   In this episode of the Registered Investment Advisor Podcast, Seth Greene interviews Jess Jensen, Founder and CEO of Co-pilot Communications, who is a former Fortune 500 leader who ran digital, social, and executive communications at Nestlé, adidas, Qualcomm, and Microsoft. Jess helps C-suite executives and founders present themselves online as authentic individuals—transforming leadership values into content that fosters trust, demand, and resilience. She shares why invisibility is dangerous, how to craft a durable leader brand, and what today's LinkedIn favors beyond corporate PR blasts.   Key Takeaways: → How leaders must go beyond wins and launches. → Why you should treat LinkedIn like a conversation, not a press wire. → How your should build your professional brand before you need it. → Why personal narratives matter to earn trust and recall. → How balancing business value with human moments is critical.   Jess Jensen is the founder of Co-pilot Communications, a Portland-based advisory helping bold executives and founders build digital brands that actually sound like them. After 20 years inside Fortune 100 companies (Microsoft, Qualcomm, Nestlé, and Adidas), Jess stepped out of corporate to help leaders stop playing small online and start showing up with clarity and confidence. Co-pilot works with curious, values-driven leaders who are tired of generic content and ghostwritten fluff. Jess believes that building a professional brand isn't just smart—it's your moat. Through sharp messaging, editorial strategy, and smart use of platforms like LinkedIn and podcasting, she helps her clients earn trust and build rapport in places where their stakeholders already spend hours every day. Jess launched Co-pilot in 2024 to amplify the kind of leadership the world needs more of—clear, grounded, and human. She's on a mission to help leaders take back the mic and shape their own narrative before someone else does.   Connect With Jess: Website If booking a call, don't forget to mention in the notes that you saw this episode of Sharpreneur to receive your free LinkedIn Audit!

Ruée vers l'or vert en RDC: quand les crédits carbone menacent forêts et communautés

En RDC, c'est la ruée vers l'or vert : les projets de crédits carbone, censés compenser les émissions des grandes entreprises polluantes à travers la planète, se multiplient au point de recouvrir la plus grande part de l'immense forêt du pays. Mais le bénéfice environnemental est douteux et l'impact social souvent négatif, selon la Fondation Rainforest UK. Pas moins de 71 projets de crédits carbone ont été recensés sur 103 millions d'hectares, soit déjà plus des deux tiers de la superficie forestière de la RDC. Une véritable ruée d'aventuriers vers l'or vert, selon Rainforest Alliance UK. « C'est un Far-West, observe Vittoria Moretti, co-auteur du rapport. Il y a vraiment beaucoup d'initiatives qui sont, pour la majorité des cas, portées par des entreprises assez douteuses, qui n'ont pas forcément d'expertise dans la conservation, comme par exemple les entrepreneurs français derrière Socodev. » Derrière Socodev, dans la province de la Tshopo : un producteur de clips musicaux et un ex-footballeur. Droits des communautés bafoués Certains projets dépassent allègrement la limite légale de 500 000 hectares. Et le consentement libre et informé préalable des communautés locales est souvent bafoué, constate le rapport. « En Équateur, il y a eu le cas de cette compagnie indienne KMS, illustre Vittoria Moretti. Les témoignages parlent de représentants venus la nuit qui ont fait signer des contrats en anglais, qui bien sûr n'était pas compréhensible pour les communautés et qui les engageaient pour 100 ans. Dans d'autres cas, comme dans la Tshopo, il y a aussi eu des cas de violation des droits de l'homme, parce que quand les communautés ont refusé le projet Grin Biodev, il y a eu beaucoup de rétorsions des forces de sécurité ». Déforestation record Quinze projets ont été validés au niveau national, trois ont obtenu la certification Verra qui leur permet de vendre des crédits carbone forestiers aux entreprises polluantes étrangères. Mais ces crédits, censés vendre la déforestation évitée en RDC ont désormais mauvaise réputation. « Aujourd'hui, un acheteur qui pourrait se prévaloir d'avoir acheté des crédits du fameux projet WWC dans la province du Maï-Ndombe, il serait très facile de lui sortir immédiatement les statistiques de Global Forest Watch, explique Alain Karsenty, économiste du CIRAD (Centre de coopération internationale en recherche agronomique pour le développement), et de lui montrer que la déforestation dans cette province n'a jamais été aussi élevée et qu'elle augmente depuis 2019 de manière régulière. Ça poserait un problème de crédibilité pour ces acheteurs. » Défiance des acheteurs Parmi ces acheteurs, Nestlé et EasyJet ont jeté l'éponge et le prix des crédits carbone s'est effondré (à 7 dollars la tonne). Le rapport de Rainforest Alliance UK demande aux autorités congolaises un moratoire sur ce système de compensation carbone. Il appelle les partenaires étrangers et le secteur privé à réduire leurs propres émissions de CO2 et à canaliser leur financement vers les communautés locales, en échange de service forestiers.

When customers continually demand hyper-local relevance, is the concept of a "global brand" an asset or a liability? Agility requires not just the ability to pivot, but the intelligence to know *when* and *how* to pivot based on real-time customer understanding. This means moving beyond global assumptions and empowering local teams with the data to make smarter, faster decisions. Today, we are here at Treasure Data's CDP World in Las Vegas, and we're going to talk about one of the biggest challenges facing any multinational company: how to maintain brand consistency and operational efficiency on a global scale, while delivering the locally relevant, personalized experiences that actually build relationships with customers. It's a classic battle between standardization and personalization, and the key to winning often lies in how you unify and activate your data.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Daniel Damasio, Senior CRM Analyst at Nestlé.

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.

Strategy and Change reviewed by David Stephen. See more about the book here. Strategy and Change: Finding Opportunity in Disruption Through Insight, Choice, and Risk, reviewed Does disruption - by a tech company - always come with profitability? If so, how immediate? If not, why? An appropriate example of a major disruptive business in this recent era is OpenAI, with ChatGPT, a technology of broad knowledge. However, OpenAI is not a profitable company, with some analysts wondering if they would ever be. One observation though is that if a company is seeking to disrupt say Google search, the company should be ready to give away services for free, for as long as possible. Now, the problem is not that there have not been consumer internet companies that took a while to break even, but that OpenAI has to run on huge compute and utilities, signing deals recently totaling $1 trillion, while only around 5% of 800 million ChatGPT users pay. How does OpenAI have an excellent product, solving tasks, professionally and personally across, but most users would rather not pay? In the book, Strategy and Change: Finding Opportunity in Disruption Through Insight, Choice, and Risk by Aaron K. Olson, Ward Ching, Richard Waterer and B. Keith Simerson, there were several lessons about disruption, including with case studies. Disruption was generally correlated with staying power, ["Corporations like Montgomery Ward, Blockbuster, and Kodak have disappeared due to new forms of competition brought on by innovative technologies."]. However, certainty of some of this, so far in this AI era, seems unclear. There were points on "visionary, incubating, directive and collaborative types of strategic leadership". They also wrote, "In its most fundamental form, we define disruptive change as the aggregate impact of all forms of environmental change on the decision ecosystem. By this we mean both instances of disruptive innovation that affect the competitive viability of an organization's core business and any disruptive innovation that alters the way that business operates. Importantly, we are also referring to the fact that these forms of disruption are likely to arise more frequently due to the accelerating and compounding nature of technological innovation." They gave an example of a company that went under that did not recover from a situation, "In 1990, the Food and Drug Administration informed Perrier Water that carcinogenic benzene had been found in US lab samples. This contamination was subsequently traced back to clogged filters that had gone undetected for six months. Perrier issued a recall for 160 million bottles from 120 countries, but following a rocky period of recovery, the company was eventually sold to Nestlé in 1992, for $2.6 billion." They also mentioned that, "In his 1994 critique of the field of strategic management, Henry Mintzberg argued that strategy cannot, in fact, be planned. Rather, he emphasizes the role of experiential learning in the development of strategic insight. Mintzberg's view was reinforced by other popular management thinkers of the time who promoted ideas like "management by walking around" and rejected what they viewed as the professionalization of management in ways that increased formality and distance from everyday work at the expense of direct experience." "Strategy is about trade-offs. In every organization, the chief executive faces difficult decisions on myriad issues such as which market opportunities to pursue, where to invest scarce resources, and how to ensure results through the right governance and controls. They make these decisions in the context of environmental factors like emerging trends, competitor actions, customer priorities, and the requirements introduced by regulations or employee expectations" The book discussed risks in details, including stating that, "Resilience through risk, Interconnected approach, Expert data analysis.

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.

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.

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.

This week's episode opens with a layoffs avalanche that could bury a small HR department. Nestlé slashes 16,000 jobs—mostly white-collar, as AI now crunches numbers faster than accountants can say “chocolate river.” Meta cuts 600 from its super-intelligence team (the irony writes itself), Paycom drops 500 engineers (guess the bots finally learned to code), Handshake axes over 100 (pivoting to “AI-centric tech” = fancy talk for “we're toast”), and even programmatic darling Appcast trims 32. The hot acquisition pitch? JobGet should buy Handshake and rebrand it Handjob.com—because nothing screams “career move” like a domain that triggers every corporate filter. The bullshit meter detonates. Facebook resurrects its job board after killing it in 2023—rumor has it Zuck's prepping AR glasses where “Starbucks is hiring” beams directly into your latte-fueled daydreams. X quietly buries its LinkedIn-killer tab (Elon's too busy monetizing outrage). Adzuna unveils a “revolutionary” search that's basically ZipRecruiter's Phil minus the creepy spokesperson—half-baked, no employer-side matching, and it begs for your email like a desperate Tinder bio. Metaview's Chicago billboard (“Who says hiring has to be fair?”) gets flayed: four-second glance, logo smaller than a South Park punchline, and DEI messaging dumber than a rock. Fix? “Effective AI. Giant Logo. Metaview.com.” Done. Stop torching $35M on ego art. Funding fireworks: Findem.ai pockets another $51M, hitting $105M total (Intello 2.0, now with agent spice—same data warehouse, new flavor packet). Deel raises $300M, pushing its war chest to $1.3B at a $17.3B valuation—enough to buy a mid-sized nation and still tip the barista. Armstrong grabs $12M for AI dish-washing robots (Taco Bell's drive-thru is about to ghost human order-takers faster than you can say “Doritos Locos”). Jack & Jill scores $20M for conversational job alerts—talk to your laptop, get emailed Indeed links. Groundbreaking… if it's 2001. Economy's a K-shaped tire fire: Hamburger Helper sales spike 14% (flashbacks to salty 70s trauma: “Dad tried to fix it with more salt—burned my mouth and my will to live”). Freight rates up 20%, subprime auto delinquencies worse than COVID, Great Recession, and dot-com bust combined. White Castle flips fully autonomous in Ohio—farewell, drive-thru jobs; hello, robot flipping your sliders while you doom-scroll in sweatpants. Finale: OpenAI green-lights erotic ChatGPT for verified adults starting December (the internet was literally built on the promise of pixelated nipples—Sam Altman's just cashing the OG check). Age-gating? Cute. Show me a 10-ft wall, I'll show you an 11-ft ladder and a forged ID. They also launch ChatGPT Atlas, an AI browser with a sassy sidebar—because Chrome's 2:38 median tab time and 11.4 open tabs (recruiters: double that, easy) needed a drunk-texting career coach. Google infused Gemini; OpenAI counters by making browsing feel like your browser just joined a group chat.Buckle up—2026 will be wilder than a Meta glasses app that undresses your LinkedIn connections in AR.

In this dynamic episode of The Food Professor Podcast, presented by Caddle, co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois dive into the latest headlines shaping Canada's food and beverage sector before welcoming Kiran Mann, CEO of Brar's, one of North America's fastest-growing South Asian food manufacturers.The episode opens with a timely look at the hospitality boost from the Toronto Blue Jays' World Series run, a much-needed economic shot in the arm for restaurants and bars coast-to-coast. From there, Sylvain unpacks fresh Canadian inflation data, connecting global trade policy, tariffs, and drought-driven beef shortages to continued food-price volatility. He explains why Canadian beef prices will likely remain high until mid-2027, and how regional differences—from Saskatchewan's 5.5 percent food inflation to Ontario's 3.5 percent—highlight a widening national divide. The conversation also tackles layoffs at Molson Coors and Nestlé, changing consumer habits amid the Ozempic effect, and why Big CPG must reinvent itself as Canadians buy more locally produced goods. The duo rounds out the news rundown with an update on Agropur's cottage-cheese lockout and a surprising salmonella outbreak in dog treats, underscoring the need for better pet-food safety oversight.Then, Michael and Sylvain welcome Kiran Mann, an inspirational immigrant entrepreneur and visionary leader steering Brar's from family-run origins to a national and expanding international powerhouse. Mann shares her remarkable journey—from her roots in Amritsar, India, to leading a modern Canadian company that connects authentic Indian flavours with contemporary manufacturing innovation. She explains Brar's evolution across three categories—dairy, snacks, and sweets—including its beloved samosas, signature paneer, and pure-vegetarian veggie burgers.Mann introduces her proprietary “Harmonic System”—a leadership and operational philosophy grounded in balance, authenticity, and purpose. Her approach integrates people, process, and passion, ensuring that growth doesn't outpace culture or quality. The discussion explores how Brar's sustains traditional recipes while using food science to extend shelf life naturally, create sustainable packaging, and meet the needs of health-conscious, multicultural consumers. Looking ahead, Mann outlines her strategy of “depth and impact,” combining Canadian multiculturalism, sustainable supply chains, and bold U.S. expansion to make Brar's a global ambassador of modern Indian cuisine made in Canada.

Radar Empresarial: Nestlé despedirá 16.000 empleados en los dos próximos años

En la edición de hoy del Radar Empresarial, abordamos el reciente anuncio de Nestlé sobre un significativo recorte de personal que impulsó al alza sus acciones el pasado jueves. La compañía planea eliminar 16.000 empleos en los próximos dos años, lo que representa aproximadamente el 6% de su fuerza laboral global. Esta decisión, que busca optimizar su estructura de costos, permitirá a la multinacional suiza ahorrar alrededor de 3.700 millones de dólares hasta 2027. Curiosamente, este ajuste no responde a una crisis financiera inmediata, ya que la empresa presenta un crecimiento orgánico de ventas del 3,3%, aunque el impacto del tipo de cambio, con una caída del 5,4%, ha reducido los ingresos en términos reales un 1,9%. El director general recientemente nombrado, Philipp Navratil, señaló que “el mundo está cambiando y Nestlé debe adaptarse con mayor rapidez”. En realidad, la empresa parece estar un paso adelante en este proceso de transformación. Desde septiembre, Navratil reemplazó a Laurent Freixe, quien abandonó el cargo tras violar el código interno de conducta por una relación inapropiada con una subordinada. Esta no ha sido la única renovación: en junio, la presidencia cambió de manos, con Pablo Isla (ex CEO de Inditex) tomando el relevo de Paul Buckle. Todo apunta a una estrategia enfocada en modernización y eficiencia. Buena parte de los despidos afecta a áreas administrativas: 12.000 de los 16.000 puestos suprimidos están relacionados con funciones de oficina. Esto está ligado a un proceso de automatización y digitalización en el que Nestlé ya ha comenzado a implementar inteligencia artificial. La empresa está utilizando agentes de IA para asumir tareas rutinarias, lo que forma parte de su ambición de liderar la transformación tecnológica dentro del sector alimentario. Además, Nestlé enfrenta desafíos importantes en el mercado estadounidense. Sus ingresos en América cayeron un 4,8%, situándose en 27.000 millones de euros, debido en parte a los aranceles. A esto se suma la presión regulatoria en torno a los productos con chocolate, impulsada por el secretario de salud Robert F. Kennedy Jr., quien lidera una campaña por hábitos más saludables bajo el lema “Make America Healthy Again”.

"The dark days are over", zegt Koen Bender van Mercurius Vermogensbeheer, als we de cijfers van LVMH bespreken. De producent van luxegoederen maakte een koerssprong van 13 procent, waarop ook de concurrenten zoals Hermés en Kering profiteerden. "Ondanks tarievendruk weet LVMH de afzet in de VS te verhogen en China is back, met een stijging van 7 procent." LVMH toont veerkracht op een solide wijze. Richard de Jong van Van Lieshout & Partners is het daarmee eens en heeft het voor zijn klanten in portefeuille. "Naast de tassen en de mode presteerde de wijn- en champagnetak van LVMH bijzonder goed. Dit geeft een eerste indicatie dat het goed gaat met de consument in de VS en China." Beide vermogensbeheerders waren ok zeer te spreken over de resultaten van TSMC, dat de markt imponeerde met een winstmarge van 56 procent, 5 procentpunt meer dan ASML. Die 56 procent was een fractie onder de verwachting, maar het bedrijf heeft een ijzersterke marktpositie waar de concurrentie eigenlijk niet aan kan tippen. Verder in de podcast dus ook aandacht voor ASML en onder andere de resultaten van Nestlé. De luisteraarsvragen komen aan bod en Koen en Richard geven hun tip.
