Ian Ousley joins Jeremy from Madrid for a conversation about clothes, acting, and the long process of becoming yourself. Ian talks about relocating to Vancouver to film Avatar: The Last Airbender, how the city's weather and retail scene changed the way he dressed, and what he learned shopping for archive fashion in Tokyo. Plus,  stories about Raf Simons, Ann Demeulemeester, a nearly 15-pound Panasonic camera jacket, the Rolling Dub Trio boots he waited all day to buy, and the era when a bright red Supreme beanie felt essential. They also trace Ian's path from wholesale vintage and his former LA shop, KALÓ SOIL. They dig into how taste and skill develop at different speeds, and what every artist has to make first. * Sponsored by Bezel - the trusted marketplace for buying and selling your next luxury watch Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What does it take to build a reputation that lasts?In a world where AI can generate endless content and everyone is competing for attention, it's easy to assume that being more visible is the answer. But as this week's guest explains, visibility without credibility rarely lasts.This week Sophie is joined by Evan Boyer, founder and CEO of Leaders PR. After nearly 15 years advising global brands including JPMorgan Chase, EY, LG, Lowe's, Panasonic, Red Hat and Volvo Trucks, Evan has built a career helping businesses earn trust, not just attention.Together they explore why expertise and credibility are built separately, why earned media has never been more valuable and what founders often misunderstand about building a reputation that stands the test of time.In this episode, we cover:Why expertise alone doesn't automatically create credibilityThe difference between earning attention and buying visibilityWhy AI is making trusted voices even more valuableWhat successful PR looks like behind the scenesHow relationships, consistency and patience shape long term reputationConnect with EvanLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/evanboyer/Leaders PR LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/leaderspr/Leaders PR Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Leaders-PR/Leaders PR Instagram: @leaders_prWebsite: www.leaderspr.comConnect with SophieLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sophie-millikenInstagram: @moja_sophieWant to be a guest on Beyond the Bio?Do you have interesting ideas to share about how to raise your profile?

Charlie Clifford grew up a self-described "scrappy Jersey guy" in a town of 5,000 people, and won his first entrepreneurial prize in sixth grade: a watch, for out-hustling a classmate whose dad rigged the contest by buying magazine subscriptions wholesale for his medical office. After business school at Indiana University, he joined one of the first Peace Corps pilot programs recruiting MBAs — sent to Peru to work with small businesses under a Stanford professor who'd later teach Nike's Phil Knight. He came home with $10,000, invested it in a scrappy import operation selling handcrafted South American leather goods, and in 1975 broke off to start his own company focused on travel bags. He named it TUMI, after a Peruvian ceremonial knife. The brand's real breakthrough came when Clifford shifted from leather to black ballistic nylon — a fabric built for flak jackets — manufactured through a partnership with a small shop in Vidalia, Georgia. Bloomingdale's 59th Street flagship picking up the line put TUMI on the map. A conversation with a longtime retail partner, who told Clifford he had "so much product" he should just open his own stores, led to the "side-by-side" concept and eventually freestanding TUMI locations. By the 2000s, TUMI was the brand road warriors carried through airports worldwide, and it went public in 2012. Clifford left the company in 2004, when the private equity partners who'd taken majority ownership after 9/11 decided to sell. He spent years distributing other people's luggage brands before realizing he wanted control over the product and the story again. In 2017, he and his former TUMI EVP Larry Lein founded ROAM — American-made, hand-assembled, and built around a philosophy that's the opposite of TUMI's black-on-black uniform: total color customization, so no two suitcases look the same.

I just installed their WhisperGreen Select on a recent project, and I've gotta say — it's not what you picture when you think "bathroom fan." Panasonic's been in the ventilation game for decades, and this thing is proof. It's whisper quiet, ENERGY STAR certified, and you can customize it — airflow settings, LED lighting in five different color temperatures, even Wi-Fi and motion sensor add-ons if you want to get the best out of your new fan.

We discuss whether there is room for a new game console manufacturer and examine the chances of whether Sega, Apple, Samsung, Panasonic, and other companies would have competing against PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and PC gaming. We also debate what a new platform would need to offer, which company has the strongest chance, and whether gamers would actually support another console.Level 857 Video Game Podcast Ep-392: Is There Room for Another Player in the Console Wars?00:00 - Intro03:00 - Indie Game of the Week Spotlight - Neon White06:57 - Is There Room for Another Player in the Console Wars?56:42 - Sony doubles down on axing physical game discs1:00:21 - Gears of War: E-Day devs are embracing 'old-school' multiplayer in 20261:03:30 - Xbox disc-to-digital program confirms retro 360 era catalog release window1:06:40 - Dave Bautista in Talks to Join God of War TV Series as Kratos1:10:35 - Al played Rhythm Heaven Groove1:14:28 - Stal played Fire Emblem Path of Radiance1:17:02 - Stikz played Saros1:21:36 - Turb played Star Fox1:24:40 - Choc played Halo Campaign EvolvedIf you enjoyed the podcast and would like to show support, doing anything below goes a long way:(1) Subscribe and share this podcast with close friends/family(2) Rate/Review us where ever you get your podcasts: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/level857(3) Become a member on Youtube, Fourthwall or Patreon for exclusive perks and discounts on merch! https://www.857ent.com/#membership(4) Get levelheaded merch here: https://level857-shop.fourthwall.com/(5) Hit the bell and subscribe to our live podcast and multiplayer, co-op gaming channel: https://goo.gl/Zy9RTD***Special shout out to all of our supporters, especially our Boss Level Members***John L., DaBagel69(6) Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/WHauNxQAM5

What does it take to build AV for a campus arena that needs to serve student-athletes, commencements, external events, and 24/7 operations?Live from InfoComm 2026 in Las Vegas, UC Today's Marcus Law speaks with Patrick Eisenhauer, Director of Audio Visual and Event Services at the University of St. Thomas, about the university's major athletics and events facility project with Panasonic.Patrick explains how the University of St. Thomas made the jump from Division 3 to Division 1 athletics, why that move required a new multi-purpose facility, and how Panasonic professional displays became a key part of the AV strategy.The discussion covers the scale of the arena, the importance of aligning technology choices with university standards, and why consumer-grade displays were not the right fit for a venue expected to support heavy daily usage.Patrick also shares why InfoComm remains essential for higher education technology leaders, from education sessions and vendor relationships to spotting the solutions that will shape future campus experiences.

John Darnielle is the songwriter, author, and frontman of The Mountain Goats, one of the most influential independent bands of the past three decades. What began as Darnielle recording songs on a Panasonic boombox in the early '90s has grown into a beloved catalog spanning more than 20 albums, earning a devoted following for its literary songwriting and deeply human stories. John joins me to talk about the band's new album, Days, and why he's finally allowing himself to look back on a career that's always been focused on what's next. We get into aging without becoming nostalgic, why every act of creation is ultimately hopeful, and what it means to see your own life—and your parents' lives—with fresh eyes. We also chat about Randy Newman, the bands that shaped him, grief, faith, songwriting, influence versus imitation, and why the days really are short.Listen to Days * Sponsored by Bezel - the trusted marketplace for buying and selling your next luxury watch Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Recorded June 26, 2026 Freshly returned from the show floor at InfoComm 2026, the AV SuperFriends gather for a full-length roundtable on trade show regrets: the booths they missed, the sessions they skipped, the demos they should have recorded, and the party they may never emotionally recover from missing. This episode wanders through the aftermath of a massive conference week, including arguments over who should really be explaining AI to the AV industry, what happens when AVIXA TV is more networked than expected, why show-floor "hidden gems" are still somehow hidden behind the wrong booth wall, and how even seasoned attendees can come home realizing they saw only a tiny slice of the show. Along the way, the crew revisits booth tour challenges, suspicious conference sandwiches, tote bag logistics, USB-C mysteries, browser-based control, over-caffeinated presentations, and the now-legendary Panasonic dinner brownies. It's part InfoComm recap, part confessional, and part warning label for anyone who thinks they can actually see everything at a trade show. Alternate show titles: It was a wet wrap Back door Uber ride Cold air blowing on your butt The brownies… like popcorn!

In Episode 73, Salma Aboukarr joins the show. A creative director and founder, she explains how she moved from painstaking CGI workflows in Blender and 3Ds Max to AI-native campaigns for brands including Coca-Cola, Panasonic, and Google Labs. She breaks down her viral IKEA exploding-room video that helped brands see the commercial potential of generative AI video, the detailed JSON prompting method behind it, and the modern AI creative stack she uses across Claude, Midjourney, Nano Banana, Seedance, FAL.ai, Z-Image Turbo, Qwen, style LoRAs, and custom AI agents.The conversation goes deep on AI advertising, product fidelity, photorealistic skin, color correction, video upscaling, automated client workflows, and why high-end AI work still depends on original concepts, trained taste, and obsessive finishing. They debate whether AI can truly be original, why technical teams struggle to manufacture taste, how creators survive a feed flooded with AI content, and why the next creative moat may come from the experiences, references, and strange little details nobody else can copy.---⏱️ Fast Hour00:00 Meet Salma Aboukarr02:17 From CGI agency to AI-first studio04:44 Product fidelity before AI got good07:34 The duct-taped road to photorealism11:10 Art direction beyond basic prompting14:28 Salma's current AI creative stack16:08 How she stress-tests every new model20:20 Why color correction still matters22:25 The IKEA video that changed everything27:13 Going viral and handling AI backlash30:38 Originality as the next creative moat33:05 Can AI actually be original?38:52 Inside an AI-native creative agency39:55 Z-Image Turbo and aesthetic base models43:06 From client brief to automated pipeline47:54 Style LoRAs for brand consistency49:11 Claude, MCP, FAL, and leaving ComfyUI51:07 The model that cut a day to 15 minutes55:13 Why AI content stopped feeling special01:00:57 The value trapped in AI archives01:02:06 Create for yourself or the audience?01:04:31 Can engineers manufacture taste?01:08:38 Finding inspiration outside the feed01:11:57 Jackie Chan and thumbnail fuel01:15:29 Final lessons from a creative trailblazer#AICreative #AIAdvertising #GenerativeAI #AIVideo #CreativeDirection #Midjourney #ClaudeAI #NanoBanana #SeedanceAI #AIWorkflow #AIAgency #AIContentCreation #BrandMarketing #CreativeTechnology #ProductPhotography #AIBranding #FutureOfAdvertising #FastHours

Greg Sampson grew up in a small coal‑mining town north of Sydney, Australia, and was among the few in his school to leave. As the first in his family to attend university, he moved to Sydney at 18, drawn by the pace and opportunity of city life.He began his career in veterinary vaccines before moving into commercial roles, where he quickly found both success and a platform for growth. Over time, Greg built an international career across Australia and the United States, taking on senior roles in general management, sales, and marketing. He developed his leadership not through theory, but through real responsibility, often stepping into complex situations where teams needed alignment, trust, and performance under pressure.Greg has worked across start‑ups, IPO environments, and global organisations. At CooperVision, he served as the first Vice President of U.S. Field Sales for seven years, where he led a doubling of sales and expanded the organisation while maintaining a strong focus on people and culture, particularly during COVID. Earlier, he led the Australian business to the number one market position and held leadership roles at Panasonic, where he focused on aligning teams and simplifying execution.His leadership style centres on clarity, accountability, and inclusion. He believes leadership is earned through trust, not title, and that teams perform best when people feel heard, respected, and empowered to challenge.Greg is now the founder of Masen Strategies, where he works with CEOs and senior leaders to strengthen alignment, leadership behaviour, and execution.

Ken Nelson is well known as an applied building science and indoor air quality (IAQ) expert at Panasonic North America. Our conversation wandered through the three ventilation strategies and further explained Panasonic's Oasys System, which I really did not realize is an innovative approach for heating and cooling not just whole house ventilation. Ken is passionate about the subject and seamlessly explains the benefits for all stakeholders as well as some of the stumbling blocks we need to look out for during installation.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup will bring enormous public safety demands to cities across the United States, Canada and Mexico — including places that are not hosting matches. For Dallas, the challenge is especially complex: While games will be played in nearby Arlington, the city will serve as home to FIFA's International Broadcast Centre and host major fan events expected to draw international crowds. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, guest host Rob Lawrence talks with Lt. Mark Rickerman of the Dallas Police Department about how the agency is preparing for the 2026 World Cup and what other departments can learn from the process. Rickerman discusses the challenges of coordinating across law enforcement, fire, transit, private security, event organizers, local government and federal partners, as well as the importance of building plans that can change quickly once the event begins.

Most global businesses enter Asia with a playbook built elsewhere. The pricing models, growth assumptions, labour structures, and definitions of value that worked in North America or Europe get applied to markets that operate by fundamentally different rules. The result, as Eric Stryson has observed across nearly two decades of on-the-ground leadership work in Asia, is failure - not dramatic failure, but the slow erosion of credibility that comes from never truly understanding where you are.Eric Stryson is Managing Director at The Global Institute For Tomorrow (GIFT), an independent pan-Asian think tank with offices in Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur. He has designed and facilitated more than 60 experiential leadership programmes across fifteen countries in Asia and the Middle East, working with over 3,000 executives from organisations including HSBC, Petronas, Marriott, MasterCard, and Standard Chartered. His public sector clients include the Hong Kong SAR Government, the Dubai Government, and the Central Bank of Malaysia.In this episode, Eric argues that much of what organisations believe they know about Asia is filtered through AI systems, research, and analysis shaped by Western institutions and historical precedents. Even conventional online research surfaces insights produced predominantly by incumbent Western policy and academic bodies, reinforcing a narrow and often distorted lens. Challenging these assumptions, he contends, requires moving beyond second-hand analysis and grounding decision-making in on-the-ground observation and lived experience.From renegotiating what 'value' means to understanding why Western growth models break down in Asia's diverse political and social contexts, Eric offers a rare perspective on what it actually takes to operate credibly in a post-Western, Asia-led growth environment. Discussion Points·       Why Western-filtered research and AI-generated analysis fail businesses trying to understand Asian markets·       Concrete examples of Western business models and assumptions breaking down on the ground in Asia·       How Asian markets define value differently - and why pricing strategies built elsewhere so often misfire·       Why 'scale fast, dominate markets' growth assumptions need renegotiating in Asia's diverse contexts·       What nearly 20 years of field project work in Asia reveals that research reports and case studies don't·       How consumption patterns and labour structures in Asia require businesses to rethink core operating models·       What 'post-Western world' means in practice for businesses operating in China, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East·       How to use AI tools responsibly when the training data reflects predominantly Western institutional perspectives·       Why Hong Kong businesses face an urgent reinvention moment - and what that looks like in practice·       The single most important thing Western businesses should do differently before entering or scaling in Asian marketsGuest BioEric Stryson is Managing Director at The Global Institute For Tomorrow (GIFT), an independent pan-Asian think tank with offices in Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur.

Energised Futures, Centrica's in-house research and innovation incubator, has partnered with Panasonic in a new pilot designed to advance intelligent heat-pump control. Demonstrating how collaboration across manufacturers, installers and technology innovators can accelerate the shift to smarter, more efficient low carbon heating. Heat Pump Trial The research has explored the automation and optimisation of heat pumps in Dublin homes as part of an EU funded Horizon-2020 programme – the DEDALUS project – to develop user-centered demand side response (DSR) systems. By combining technical innovation from Energised Futures with Panasonic's manufacturing expertise alongside local installer partner Mos Mechanical's on the ground installer insight, the project reflects the full lifecycle of heat pump deployment. Energised Futures is creating bespoke digital twins for all participating homes and remotely controlling each Panasonic heat pump with predictive algorithms to deliver optimum comfort and efficiency. Building on the success of its earlier MESH project, funded by the Department of Energy Security and Net Zero, the team has developed advanced control algorithms to enable the Panasonic heat pumps to participate in Demand Response. The system prioritises heating the home and hot water tank when electricity is cheap and low-carbon, while preserving occupant comfort: reducing heat pump operating costs and emissions and simultaneously supporting grid balancing and integration of renewables. Insights from the Dublin trial will feed directly into complementary pilots in Austria, Denmark, Italy, Spain and Romania, helping to build a holistic understanding of how smart heating and flexibility solutions work across different climates, housing types and energy systems. The overall programme wrapped at the end of April, following which the combined results from Dublin and the other EU pilots will be analysed and shared. Ben Krikler, PhD, Head of Energised Futures and Director of Research & Innovation, Centrica, emphasised the opportunity ahead: "Heat pumps have incredible potential, but that potential isn't being fully realised" "By combining advanced controls, predictive algorithms, and real-world data, we can make heat pumps smarter, more efficient, and more rewarding for households by delivering comfort at the lowest running cost while also helping to balance the grid and reduce emissions." Underscoring the wider benefits of the project, Laurence Cox, Country Manager for Panasonic Heating & Cooling Ireland said: 'This project highlights the real-world benefits of heat pump technology, from reduced energy costs and improved comfort to lower carbon emissions. We are proud to be working alongside Centrica and MOS Mechanical to help underline the growing importance of proven, low-carbon technologies in supporting the transition to a more sustainable built environment." The pilot adopts a user-centric, co-creation approach to understand what drives or hinders participation in demand response, including factors such as comfort, data privacy, and energy literacy. Supported by a robust social science framework and drawing on behavioural science, motivation theories, and socio-economic insights, the project actively involves participants through workshops, segmentation analysis, and interface testing. MSM Renewable installed the heat pumps and worked directly with participating households, giving them practical support and helping ensure the trial reflected real-world installer and customer experience. Reflecting on the trial, Mick O'Shea, Founder & CEO of Mos Mechanical's said: "Heat pumps are evolving quickly, and projects like this make sure installers stay ahead" "Hands on experience with the latest systems gives us the confidence to show customers how efficient heat pumps really are. It also proves that when the industry works together, the technology delivers more for households — and opens new opportunities for installers." As the progra...

Moc výrobních firem, které McKinsey označí za globální benchmark, v Česku není. Výjimkou je Panasonic Automotive Systems, do kterého se jezdí učit lidé ze sesterských továren. Pardubický závod dnes ukazuje, jak může vypadat moderní automotive výroba, když se spojí silná firemní kultura, technologická vyspělost a odvaha měnit zaběhnuté fungování. Právě změna je přitom klíčové slovo. Panasonic prochází zásadní transformací, jejímž jádrem je nový systém od SAP. Nejde ale pouze o „upgrade IT“. Jde o přestavbu nervového systému celé firmy, od výroby přes logistiku až po rozhodování managementu.„Najednou máte data na jednom místě a vidíte věci, které jste dřív vidět nemohli,“ popisuje Martin Srdínko, šéf výrobního inženýringu. Právě práce s daty byla jedním z hlavníchimpulzů ke změně. Panasonic sice generoval obrovské množství informací, ale kvůli několika odděleným systémům je nedokázal efektivně propojovat, číst v nich souvislosti areagovat v reálném čase.

From understanding that danger and opportunity are the same word in Japanese to learning why the brutal truth about entrepreneurship in Ghana is that you can have all the knowledge about risk management from working in top corporate jobs in Japan and South Africa managing billions in assets but nobody will listen to you when you say this is how you should consider risk because you need to let your life shine and people will see what is actually happening to you proving that actions speak louder than credentials, the former head of research and senior portfolio manager at Mazi asset management in South Africa who moved to Ghana in 2021 after working many years in corporate making very very good money because his aim was capital accumulation knowing he wanted to set up something back home but needed the financial foundation first, the investment expert who breaks down the rule of 72 explaining that if the interest rate is 24% you divide 72 by 24 to get 3 which means your money will double in three years if you invest in an asset giving you 24% per annum and reinvest the interest proving that when Ghana treasury bill rates were about 30% people could have doubled their money if they knew this but for lack of knowledge my people perish, the financial literacy advocate who reveals the mistake people make in Ghana is putting all their money in the bank thinking they have 2 million in savings when actually that deposit is a liability for the bank which uses your money to invest in Ghana government funds getting 25% to 30% return while the spread is so high they pay their workers and get their fault checks and you get peanuts from interest while they are living on your savings, the reality that banks bring pretty ladies when they want you to borrow money to buy your house because they understand the rule of 72 and know your debt will double after a season but when it's time for collection they bring much more men to collect their money and if you're not able to pay they take away your house and you are in trouble, the wisdom that if you go to his village in Bocancere people don't understand finance proving that financial education should be paramount in our country and everything is confined to Accra but we need to be more practical with the teaching of economics and finance, the careful expert who has rules and has to be careful whatever he says because it's not like he's recommending for anybody to go and buy this or that so privately he can talk to his friends saying this looks interesting you can do this but in a forum like this if you say this company is good somebody will go and buy then lose money and he's going to be in trouble like a false prophecy, the portfolio manager who admits you don't get it right all the time and just wants to be right maybe 51% or 52% of the time and his client will make money because if he buys Sony and Panasonic in consumer electronics but forgets about Samsung and Samsung goes high while Sony stays there he loses relatively and the client is going to be upset asking why didn't you buy Samsung why did you stay with Sony, the entrepreneur whose balance sheet now is about 12 million Ghana cedis but if he actually looks at the money invested it's about two million plus dollars because he worked for very good companies was paid very well and saved a lot of money so when he was coming back to Ghana his plan was ready with his business plan ready knowing what he was going to do with projected returns everything on his computer.

Leeds drew 0-0 with Brentford in a frustrating goalless stalemate at Elland Road - a combined xG of just one, 64 shots without scoring, and five consecutive Premier League games without an open play goal. James, Rocco and Darragh break down why Leeds look predictable in the 3-5-2, whether Farke's "draws will do" approach is the right call, and which players need more minutes to unlock defences. Plus, Keith Andrews' Spygate hypocrisy exposed after Brentford's goalkeeper faked an injury for a tactical huddle, Mick Jones honoured at Elland Road, the relegation battle heats up after Spurs were hammered 3-0 by Forest, and why Leeds' remaining fixtures against four of the bottom five could be the key to survival. Also: Calvert-Lewin and Stach's international call-ups, the Christopher Loftus and Kevin Speight tribute, and Darragh's Irish trip to Leeds.

In Japan, "engagement" is a loanword (エンゲージメント), which is a neat metaphor: the sound exists, but the meaning can feel fuzzy at work. Yet global surveys still measure it, and Japan often lands near the bottom — Gallup's recent Japan spotlight reporting puts engaged employees at about 7%.  So how do you lift engagement in a culture that's cautious with self-scoring, allergic to over-promising, and hyper-sensitive to responsibility? You stop chasing a Western definition and start building the three drivers that actually move hearts and behaviour in Japanese teams: manager trust, senior leadership credibility, and organisational pride — with one emotional trigger that lights the fuse: feeling valued by your boss. What does "employee engagement" actually mean in Japan? In Japan, engagement shows up less as loud enthusiasm and more as quiet commitment, discretionary effort, and loyalty to the team. If you use a US-style definition ("I love my company and I'll shout it from the rooftops"), you'll undercount people who are genuinely doing the work and protecting the brand. This is why Japan can look "low engagement" on dashboards while still delivering operational excellence at firms like Toyota, Panasonic, and major banks — effort is often expressed through endurance, quality, and risk reduction rather than overt positivity. Post-pandemic (2020–2025), hybrid work also reduced informal connection, which matters disproportionately in relationship-heavy cultures. Do now: Define engagement behaviours in your context (e.g., proactive problem-solving, collaboration, customer ownership) and measure those, not just imported survey language. Why do Gallup-style engagement surveys often score Japan so low? Japan often scores low because translation and culture collide with how questions are interpreted and how people self-rate. Gallup's Japan-focused reporting highlights that engagement is extremely low by global comparison, and that disengagement is widespread.  Two common traps: Translation nuance: Questions like "Would you recommend this company to friends/family?" carry responsibility risk in Japan. If the friend hates the job (or the company hates the friend), the recommender feels accountable. Perfectionism penalty: Japanese respondents frequently avoid top-box scores. Luxury and service sectors have long observed that Japanese satisfaction ratings can be systematically harsher than other markets (the "Japan factor"). Do now: Audit survey translations with bilingual leaders, add Japan-relevant behavioural questions, and interpret trends (up/down) more than raw global ranking. How do you measure engagement without getting fooled by the numbers? Use a "triangulation" approach: one survey, a few operational signals, and regular manager check-ins. In multinationals, HQ loves a single engagement score — but Japan needs a dashboard that respects context. Practical measurement mix (2024–2026 reality check): Survey pulse: Keep it short; use Gallup Q12-style consistency, but validate Japanese phrasing. Operational indicators: regretted attrition, internal mobility, absenteeism, safety incidents, quality defects, customer complaints, and project cycle time. Manager "meaning" rhythm: monthly 1:1s, quarterly career conversations, and team retrospectives (especially important in hybrid setups). Compare apples-to-apples: Japan vs. Japan (trend), not Japan vs. Denmark (culture). Do now: Pick 5 metrics max, publish them quarterly, and make every manager accountable for one engagement input (e.g., 2 meaningful 1:1s per month). What are the three strongest drivers of engagement in Japanese teams? The biggest levers are (1) satisfaction with the immediate manager, (2) belief in senior leadership, and (3) pride in the organisation. These drivers are universal, but they hit harder in Japan because trust, clarity, and belonging are the social glue. Immediate manager: People don't quit companies, they quit bosses — and in Japan, the boss is also the cultural translator. Gallup research often points to managers as a major factor in team engagement variance.  Senior leadership credibility: If the "why" is vague, Japanese employees assume hidden risk. Clear direction reduces anxiety and boosts execution. Organisational pride: Internal rivalries (Sales vs Marketing vs IT) kill pride. Strong leaders unite teams against external competitors (Rakuten vs Amazon, incumbents vs startups like Mercari, etc.). Do now: Run a 30-day leadership reset: manager 1:1 cadence, CEO "why" messaging, and a pride campaign celebrating customer impact and team wins. What's the emotional trigger that flips people from "showing up" to "leaning in"? Feeling valued by your boss is the fastest emotional accelerator of engagement. People don't guess they're valued — they need to hear it clearly, consistently, and specifically. In Japan, "valued" lands best when it's concrete and modest: "Your analysis prevented a customer escalation." "Because you coached the new hire, the team's cycle time improved." "I trust you with this client because your prep is world-class." Tie value to meaning: how the work helps customers, protects colleagues, or strengthens reputation. This is where confidence, enthusiasm, and ownership start to appear — without forcing extroversion. Do now: Every manager: give 2 pieces of specific recognition per person per month, linked to business impact (customer, quality, speed, risk, revenue). What should leaders in multinationals do when HQ demands Japan "fix engagement"? Push back with data, reframe expectations, and localise the playbook — without looking defensive. Global leaders often see Japan at the bottom and assume leadership failure; the smarter move is to explain the measurement context andshow your improvement plan. A practical HQ message: "Japan's baseline is structurally lower due to survey interpretation and scoring norms." "We'll improve trend lines via manager capability, leadership clarity, and organisational pride." "We'll report both engagement and behavioural indicators quarterly." Gallup's Japan spotlight materials reinforce that Japan's disengagement is economically meaningful — which gives you permission to act decisively.  Do now: Agree with HQ on a 12-month target focused on movement (e.g., +2–4 points) and manager behaviours, not a magical leap to US levels. Final wrap If you want engagement to rise in Japan, stop arguing about the katakana and start building the conditions where people feel safe, valued, and proud. Fix the immediate manager experience, make senior leadership's "why" painfully clear, and create pride by uniting teams against external competitors. The best part: these levers cost zero yen — but they do require leadership discipline. Optional FAQs Is there a Japanese word for "engagement" at work? Not a perfect one — that's why many firms keep エンゲージメント and define it behaviourally. Agree on what engagement looks like day-to-day, then measure those actions. Should Japan use the same engagement questions as the US? Not without localisation. Translate for meaning (not words), test with Japanese employees, and adjust "recommend to friends/family" style items carefully. What's the single fastest engagement improvement tactic? Manager behaviour. Increase high-quality 1:1s and specific recognition; managers are a major lever in engagement differences.  Why do Japanese teams avoid giving 10/10 scores? Perfectionism and modesty norms. Use trend-based targets and multiple indicators rather than chasing top-box scores.

On today's show we look at HDTV Display Technologies that are no longer with us. Some had a short run and some never made it to the market. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: LG pulls the plug on 8K OLED and 8K LCD TVs Apple's home hub could finally arrive this spring with a rather unique design Roku is Testing a New Home Screen With A New Look Google Home update brings more automation controls HDTV Display Technologies That Are No Longer With Us Over the 21 years we have been doing the show we have seen numerous HDTV display technologies come and go. Some never made it to market and some had a good run but were eventually beat out by something better. These technologies competed during the transition from bulky CRTs to flat panels, but most lost out as LCD, later becoming LED-backlit LCD, then OLED, became dominant for reasons like cost, scalability, picture quality improvements, and manufacturing ease. Technologies That Were Proposed/Demonstrated but Never Commercially Released to Consumers SED (Surface-Conduction Electron-Emitter Display)Developed primarily by a Canon and Toshiba joint venture starting in the late 1990s/early 2000s. It was essentially a flat-panel evolution of CRT technology using electron emitters for each pixel, promising CRT-like motion handling, deep blacks, high contrast, fast response times, and low power in a slim form factor. Prototypes were shown around 2005–2007 with impressive demos. Why it didn't make it: Repeated delays due to manufacturing challenges (high production costs, difficulty scaling/vacuum sealing), patent disputes, and aggressive price drops in LCD/plasma panels. Then by 2009–2010, LCD had become too dominant and cheap; Canon officially froze consumer SED development in 2010, shifting any remaining efforts to niche professional uses. FED (Field-Emission Display)Similar to SED and sometimes grouped together or seen as a precursor/variant. FED used field-emission electron sources (like microtips) for CRT-style performance in a flat panel. Demonstrated in prototypes in the 2000s by companies like Sony and Motorola. Why it didn't make it: Development took too long; manufacturing complexity and yield issues made it unviable. It was overtaken by faster-scaling plasma and then LCD/OLED technologies before reaching mass production. Technologies That Reached the Market but Were Discontinued DLP (Digital Light Processing) Rear-Projection TVsUsed Texas Instruments' DMD (digital micromirror device) chips to reflect light, often with a color wheel for sequential color (or pricier 3-chip versions). Popular in the mid-2000s for large-screen (50–70+ inch) HDTVs from brands like Samsung, Mitsubishi, RCA, and Toshiba, offering good brightness, no burn-in, and sharp images at competitive prices. Why discontinued: Bulky depth (even if thinner than CRT rear-projection), lamp replacements needed, rainbow artifacts (on single-chip models), poor off-angle viewing, and vulnerability to ambient light. As flat-panel LCD and plasma prices fell dramatically in the late 2000s, consumers preferred slim, wall-mountable designs. Rear-projection DLP TVs largely vanished by around 2010. LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) / Variants like D-ILA (JVC) and SXRD (Sony)A reflective microdisplay tech using liquid crystals on a silicon backplane, often in rear-projection or some front-projection setups. Offered excellent contrast, deep blacks, and smooth motion (better than early LCDs). Available in HDTVs from JVC, Sony, and others in the mid-2000s. Why largely discontinued for direct-view TVs: High cost, manufacturing complexity, and lower brightness compared to emerging flat panels. Rear-projection versions suffered the same bulkiness issues as DLP. While LCOS survives today in high-end projectors mostly in JVC and Sony home theater models, it never scaled to mainstream direct-view flat-panel HDTVs and was eclipsed by LCD advancements. Plasma Display Panel (PDP / Plasma TVs)Used ionized gas (plasma) cells to create light, excelling in black levels, contrast, color accuracy, wide viewing angles, and no motion blur. Very popular for HDTV in the 2000s from Panasonic, Pioneer, Samsung, and LG. Why discontinued: High power consumption, heat generation, heavier panels, burn-in risk (though mitigated later), and difficulty scaling to 4K efficiently/cost-effectively. As LCD/LED prices dropped with better brightness, efficiency, and no burn-in, plasma couldn't compete economically. Production fully ended around 2014–2015. Other Notable Mentions LCD Rear-Projection TVs — Used transmissive LCD panels; suffered from similar bulk and light issues as DLP; discontinued early-mid 2000s. Direct-view CRT HDTVs — The original standard; fully discontinued by the late 2000s/early 2010s due to size, weight, and inefficiency. Key Reasons Technologies Fail in HDTV Market Regardless of how good a display technology is, the following will keep it from the mass market: Cost & Manufacturing Yield: Technologies requiring ultra-precise processes (SED, FED, LCoS) couldn't hit competitive prices.  Competing Technologies Improve Fast: LCD and later LED/OLED got cheaper and better quicker than rivals could scale. Form Factor Shift: Direct-view panels beat rear-projection (DLP, LCoS, laser) because consumers prefer thin TVs. Performance Tradeoffs: Issues like power use, burn-in, brightness, viewing angles, or reliability hurt consumer uptake.  In summary, the winners were technologies that scaled cheaply to larger sizes, became thinner/lighter, improved efficiency, and avoided major drawbacks like high costs or reliability issues. LCD/LED dominated the 2010s due to mass production advantages, while OLED took premium segments later for superior contrast/per-pixel lighting. Many promising "next-gen" ideas from the 2000s (like SED/FED) simply arrived too late or proved too hard to manufacture affordably.

Ready to turn your home into a haven of fresh air? Join me, Eric G, and my buddy John Dudley as we dive into the world of ventilation with our good friend Ken Nelson from Panasonic Eco Systems. We're tackling the big stuff—like why proper ventilation is the unsung hero of home comfort and health. Spoiler alert: it's not just about avoiding that funky bathroom smell; we're talking about keeping your indoor air quality top-notch and preventing that delightful mold garden from sprouting in your garage. So, if you're ready to breathe easier and maybe learn a thing or two about how to keep your air (and your home) feeling fresh, then stay tuned! If you've ever walked into your garage and thought, 'Wow, it feels like a swamp in here,' then boy, do Eric G. and John Dudley have a treat for you! In this lively episode, they sit down with Ken Nelson from Panasonic Eco Systems to tackle the often-overlooked topic of ventilation. Spoiler alert: it's not just about avoiding that horrid bathroom fog! Ken dives deep into the world of Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) and how they can transform your indoor air quality from ‘yikes' to ‘ahh.' We learn that moisture isn't just a bathroom problem; it lurks in your kitchen and garage too, ready to wreak havoc on your precious belongings. Ken humorously shares his personal experiences with Panasonic products, emphasizing their longevity and efficiency. The trio explores the absurdities of building codes and how they often miss the mark on practical ventilation solutions. Plus, they discuss the importance of maintaining those fancy gadgets to keep your home breathing easy. So, grab a drink, kick back, and get ready to rethink your home's air flow!Takeaways:Ventilation is not just about the bathroom; it's crucial for kitchens and garages too, so stop ignoring those moisture issues, folks!Panasonic's ERVs can reject up to 90% of moisture, meaning if it's 80% humidity outside, you could be breathing in a cool 55% inside. No more sweaty living!Mechanical ventilation is key because relying on open windows is like hoping for a miracle every time the wind blows—let's be real, it rarely works like that.The right ventilation system can save you big bucks on energy costs, so invest wisely instead of going for the cheapest options that just gather dust.Don't skimp on filter changes in your ERV; that filter is your home's first line of defense against the nasty outdoor air, and ignoring it is just asking for trouble.If your ventilation is only as good as your building code allows, you're basically living in a barely legal house—time to step it up!Companies mentioned in this episode:Panasonic VentilationPanasonic EcosystemsThanks for listening to Around the house if you want to hear more please subscribe so you get notified of the latest episode as it posts at https://around-the-house-with-e.captivate.fm/listenIf you want to join the Around the House Insider for access to the back catalog, Exclusive Content and a direct email to Eric G and access to the show early https://around-the-house-with-e.captivate.fm/support...

In case you didn't already know, 2025 marks 10 years since we started the B&H Photography Podcast, making today's show our tenth annual Photo Gear of the Year episode! A lot of cameras have come down the pike since that first recap, along with a veritable roller coaster of marketing strategies and photographic trends. To follow up on a trend discussed last year, we start out with a nod to point-and-shoots, a craze that, according to Kevin, has "become fever pitch." To expand on this theme, we look back in time to when digital point-and-shoots were losing ground to the ubiquitous camera phone, leading to Mike's theory that the current digicam trend is "real nostalgia for mid-aughts frivolity." We also point to a multi-tiered strategy among manufacturers, allowing them to cater to different user bases—from vloggers to professionals to hybrid shooters to the all-important enthusiast market. This lighthearted banter leads into our main course, focused on new releases from Canon, FUJIFILM, Godox, Hasselblad, Leica, Nikon, OM SYSTEM, Panasonic, Peak Design, Ricoh Pentax, Sigma, and Sony. Finally, in addition to predictions for 2026, we wrap things up with Kevin's picks for travel-friendly photo accessories to catch his eye this year. Stay to the end to learn about Peak Design's latest travel bags and tripods, plus the innovative modular design behind a new flash system from Godox.

On this week's show DJ Briggs from Brightside Home Theater fills in for Braden who is away on business. We ask DJ to give us his opinion on using a large format TV as a replacement for a projector. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: LG will debut its first Micro RGB television at CES Local ABC, CBS, FOX, & NBC Stations Are Demanding Up to a 50% Price Hike for Cable TV Customers WBD board recommends rejection of Paramount's takeover bid Other: YouTube TV Wants to Unbundle the Cable Package That Streamers Were Meant to Kill in the First Place Tailwind Meross Garage Door Opener HT Guys Amazon List Swapping a projector for a 100" TV  Jon Taylor recently purchased a TCL 98QM7K (2025 model, QD-Mini LED QLED with Google TV) during Black Friday for $1,999.99 (50% off the $3,999.99 retail price). After using it for a couple of weeks in his basement home theater (replacing an older 82" Samsung and supplementing a projector setup), he shares highly positive impressions. Key Highlights: Size and Installation: The 98" screen is enormous and immersive. Delivery and installation (included from Best Buy) went smoothly, though modifications to basement stairs were needed to fit the massive box. Picture Quality: Exceptional deep blacks (best non-OLED he's seen, rivaling his old Panasonic plasma), vibrant colors, and strong contrast. Upscaling of lower-resolution content (720p/1080p from cable, Blu-ray, streaming) is excellent. 4K sources, including Ultra HD Blu-ray and YouTube, look stunning with minimal motion blur. Performance Across Sources: Built-in Google TV streaming: Clear and smooth. Roku Premier: Deep blacks and popping colors. Standout: Apple TV 4K shines brightest, leveraging Dolby Vision for an incredibly vivid, "popping" image—far superior to non-Dolby Vision devices on his previous Samsung. Gaming and Features: 144Hz refresh rate delivers outstanding performance with low motion lag. Fun feature: Displays four simultaneous 48" screens for NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube TV. Observations: Large size exposes weaknesses in poor cable signals (fixed by rerouting). He notes TCL (and Hisense) are seriously challenging premium brands (Samsung, LG, Sony) with high-end specs at budget prices, earning praise from reviewers like RTINGS.com. Jon historically preferred established brands for reliability but now sees TCL/Hisense as the new value leaders, similar to how Samsung/LG rose decades ago. He recommends checking out the latest high-end TCL models, especially for large sizes where premium brands were too expensive for him. He's also considering switching from Verizon Fios to a streaming TV service to cut costs. Overall, Jon is thrilled with the TV's performance and value, calling it a "force to be reckoned with."
