Expert Panel: Amy Hobek, PhD, CCC-SLP, Fé González Murray, EdD, CCC-SLP, Vishnu KK Nair, Archie Soelaeman, Betty Yu and Reem KhamisTake ACTION HERE: Changes to 2020 certification standards feedback. Survey. (n.d.). https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2020_Cert_ChangesThis episode will be available for 0.1 ASHA CEU on July 2Correction Note from Dr. Betty: “During the recording I referred to the executive order targeting associations with assets of $500 million or more. I thought ASHA met that criteria but actually ASHA's net assets are around $174 million.”In this episode, Michelle and Erin host an all start line up of colleagues from across the globe to discuss ASHA's Proposed Changes to the “2020 Certification Standards” and the long-term ramifications that these changes could have for our profession. This conversation is timely in that there are only a matter of days, roughly 3 weeks or less, for audiologists and speech-language pathologists (including students) to write in and advocate to ASHA on whether the proposed changes to the 2020 Certification Standards should be accepted… changes that remove key words and language that were hard fought to obtain. Be informed that this conversation does address political rationale behind the changes and offer a plethora of resources for individuals to grow their knowledge regarding the long-term ramifications of these proposed changes… but it ends with resources on how to make your voice heard! So, come join the ladies of “First Bite” and ADVOCATE!About the Panel: Amy Hobek, PhD, CCC-SLP is an Associate Professor of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Cincinnati.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us a textDespite rumors of SaaS's decline, numerous SaaS companies boasting billion-dollar valuations continue to push innovation, particularly in Payroll and Human Capital Management (HCM). Yet, a paradox emerges as some of these firms, after initially delivering advanced HR features, have rolled back functionality, leaving users disappointed. This raises questions about Personio's rapid rise: Is its success simply a reversion to managed services, signaling a return to the basics, or does it reflect a long-standing gap in the European market for comprehensive HR solutions? In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry experts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to conduct an independent review of Personio's capabilities. We covered many grounds including where Personio might be a fit in the enterprise architecture and where it might be overused. Finally, they analyze many data points to help understand the core strengths and weaknesses of Personio.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs.rocks or elevatiq.com.

What happens when we're unable to see the divine image in those across the political divide? The recent Los Angeles riots in response to immigration enforcement actions have revealed the deep wounds in our social fabric—and the critical need for spiritual perspective. Join Jeremy Jeremiah, and Mario Andrew as they touch on this issue from an Orthodox perspective.Pray for everyone involved in these conflicts, not just the people on the ground, but the higher-ups too that are making all of these calls. Drawing from personal military experience, our conversation explores how protective equipment like bulletproof vests can transform more than just physical vulnerability—they can alter our perception of others. "When you're geared up, you're like wearing a suit of armor, you're invincible," shares Mario, describing how easily this mindset leads to dehumanizing those on the opposing side. This sobering reflection offers a powerful metaphor for our current social divisions. We dive into the complex dynamics of law enforcement militarization, immigration policy, and Christian responsibility. The Orthodox understanding that every person—regardless of documentation status, political belief, or uniform—bears the image of God challenges us to look beyond superficial divisions. While acknowledging the necessity of laws and order, we grapple with showing Christ-like compassion to families caught in immigration enforcement actions. The conversation ultimately leads us to our personal responsibility before God. Rather than attempting to control government actions or change others' beliefs, our faith calls us to prayer—for protesters, police officers, policy makers, and everyone affected by these conflicts. In times of division, perhaps our most powerful witness is seeing the icon of Christ in those with whom we most strongly disagree. Listen now and join us in seeking a path forward that honors both justice and mercy in these challenging times.

While traditional CRMs suffice for straightforward use cases, they often falter when faced with rigid data structures that don't align with complex, customer-centric workflows. In these instances, more flexible CRMs become essential, offering not just a viable alternative but often the only workable solution. The convergence of project management capabilities with sales and marketing processes has further elevated the value of certain CRM platforms, creating a seamless operational flow that gives them a distinct advantage.

Send us a textThe enterprise tech and AI landscape is evolving at a breakneck pace, marked by bold investments, leadership changes, and groundbreaking innovations. Mike Ettling's departure from Unit4 prompts reflection on AI's transformative role in ERP, even as companies like Overhaul secure $55 million to tackle persistent supply chain challenges for giants like Dyson and Microsoft. Meanwhile, the personal use of AI is making waves—one individual's AI-assisted job hunt while asleep led to 50 interview calls overnight, underscoring the technology's growing influence in everyday life. Major funding rounds, such as SandboxAQ's $300 million raise, highlight investor confidence in the next generation of AI applications. On the product front, Agentforce 2.0 introduces a vision of digital labor that promises an infinitely scalable workforce, while HubSpot's co-founder launched Agent.ai, attracting over 258,000 users in just four months. Consolidation continues as Arctic Wolf and BlackBerry agree on the acquisition of Cylance, and Grammarly's acquisition of Coda signals a new phase of AI-powered productivity, accompanied by a leadership shift. Amid these developments, Salesforce prepares to launch AI agents and a retail-focused POS system, even as its CEO openly criticizes Microsoft Copilot as a “huge disaster,” adding further intrigue to the unfolding AI arms race.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories.

Send us a textCRMs designed for the education sector, especially within public institutions and universities, must navigate a complex landscape of fragmented workflows and diverse stakeholders, from students and faculty to alumni and administrators. These organizations often require more than what traditional CRM systems can offer, particularly when managing academic programs, course operations, and dynamic communication channels. The complexity intensifies further with upstream processes like student recruitment and onboarding, which demand highly tailored workflows that generic CRMs frequently fail to accommodate. In this specialized environment, LeadSquared has positioned itself as a strong player with its education-centric CRM offerings. However, the real question lies in how well it measures up to competitors and whether it can truly meet the evolving needs of this multifaceted sector.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry experts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to conduct an independent review of LeadSquared's capabilities.

One of the more misunderstood aspects of the spiritual gifts is the prophetic, and because of that, people often reject it entirely, or misuse it in a way that doesn't honor the Lord.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us a textCall center and customer service workflows, particularly in heavily regulated sectors like banking, financial services, and insurance, often involve a level of complexity that standard CRM platforms struggle to accommodate. Processes such as client onboarding, approval cycles, and exception handling require dynamic, BPM-like capabilities that go beyond basic ticketing or task management. While major CRM solutions may offer customization, they frequently lack the agility and deep integration needed for real-time process orchestration and ad-hoc decision-making. This is where Pegasystems distinguishes itself, leveraging its strengths in process automation, AI-driven decisioning, and dynamic case management to manage intricate workflows with precision and adaptability. Positioned as a leader in the convergence of CRM and business process management, Pegasystems stands out for organizations seeking a platform that can handle complex service environments while maintaining compliance and operational efficiency.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry experts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to conduct an independent review of Pegasystems' capabilities. We covered many grounds, including where Pegasystems might be a fit in the enterprise architecture and where it might be overused. Finally, they analyze many data points to help understand the core strengths and weaknesses of Pegasystems.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs.rocks or elevatiq.com.

We are currently in an era that celebrates self-expression. Whether online or in person, we are encouraged to share our thoughts and emotions. Unlike previous generations, we now have the freedom to openly express how we feel. While there are numerous advantages to sharing our emotions with others, overdoing it can have its drawbacks. That's why it's essential to strike a balance between emotional control and expressiveness. This balance, tailored to our personal preferences and the context we find ourselves in, is key to navigating the world of emotional expression with confidence and reassurance. To delve deeper into this subject, I have invited Sahar Milani, an Experiential Brand Specialist and Host of the Mindful Makers Podcast and Laura Roche, an MC, podcaster and mindfulness and self-compassion expert, to join me for an in-depth discussion. Sahar Milani is the founder and Experiential Director of Sorshaa, a global brand strategist with a passion for human connection, storytelling, and wellbeing. With over 20 years of experience in mindfulness and a career spanning Europe, MENA, and Southeast Asia, she helps brands communicate with clarity and purpose to create meaningful impact. Sahar is also the host of Mindful Makers, a podcast spotlighting individuals and brands making a positive difference, recognized as one of the top 8 female-led MENA podcasts by SheerLuxe Middle East. Her work sits at the intersection of curiosity, creativity, and conscious communication. Laura Roche was born and raised in Spain and holds a bachelor's degree in Social Pedagogy and a Master's in Mindfulness for Conscious Organizations from the University of Barcelona. She's also a mindfulness and self-compassion teacher from the University of San Diego, California. She spent hundreds of hours on retreats and even lived for short periods at a Buddhist temple. Having lived and worked on four continents, she has garnered valuable knowledge and experience in dealing with a multitude of people and cultures, always learning and opening herself up to new experiences. In this interview, we examine the various aspects of emotional expression, weighing its advantages and disadvantages. More importantly, we share practical strategies for achieving a healthy balance.

Send us a textCRM systems generally center around four main suites—sales, marketing, customer service, and field service—often enhanced by contact center capabilities, though smaller platforms may streamline their offerings to focus primarily on marketing and lead generation. While enterprise-grade CRMs tend to offer robust, native support for complex features like CPQ and subscription management, smaller solutions often rely on third-party integrations to meet industry-specific needs. In this context, Keap stands out as a CRM designed specifically for small businesses, prioritizing simplicity, marketing automation, and affordability over extensive transactional or field service functionalities. Its position in the CRM landscape reflects a clear trade-off: it may lack the depth of enterprise tools, but excels in providing an accessible, all-in-one solution for small teams aiming to streamline customer engagement and growth.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry experts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to conduct an independent review of Keap's capabilities. We covered many grounds including where Keap might be a fit in the enterprise architecture and where it might be overused.
