Welcome to another insightful episode of Build a Better Agency! This week, host Drew McLellan is joined by Matt Davies and Pieter-Paul von Weiler, the strategist duo behind the Better Briefs Project, to tackle one of the most persistent and frustrating challenges agencies face: the elusive art of creating a truly effective brief. If you've ever struggled with unclear objectives, misaligned expectations, or wasted rounds of creative development, this episode is packed with data-driven answers and practical solutions. Drawing on global research from over 1,700 marketers and agency professionals across 70 countries, Matt and Pieter-Paul share eye-opening findings about the wide gap between what clients think they're delivering in a brief and what agencies are actually receiving. They break down the staggering disconnect—like the fact that 78% of marketers believe their briefs offer clear strategic direction, while only 5% of agencies agree—and explore the ripple effect this misalignment has on wasted budgets, morale, and creative outcomes. Drew leads a discussion on why so many briefs fall short, what really constitutes a great brief, and how both agencies and clients can step up to improve the process. You'll hear actionable advice on teaching clients the value of a well-crafted brief, initiating honest conversations before a live project starts, and creating custom templates that actually work for both sides. Plus, Matt and Pieter-Paul draw on their extensive agency experience to explain the difference between client briefs and creative briefs, and how agencies can strategically refine incoming briefs for stronger creative results.  Whether you're an agency owner, account executive, or creative lead, don't miss this episode if you're ready to reclaim lost time, reduce budget waste, and build stronger partnerships with your clients around the brief-writing process. By the end, you'll feel equipped to have more candid, constructive conversations and ensure every campaign starts with clarity and purpose.

What can Christians on the right and left continue to learn about the experience and discipleship of trans people and those with gender incongruence?Today we'll be looking into some of the tough questions of transgender anthropology and pastoral care. But instead of debating directly over the questions (Should we use preferred pronouns? What is just legislation? How do we talk to kids? To affirm, or not to affirm?), we concentrate on how to care for people.Our two guests today, while not in substantial theological disagreement about trans topics, bring to their different experiences, approaches, and relationships lots of much-needed nuance, and some timely new questions, to a conversation grounded in traditional Christian theology.Can we question aspects of trans-anthropology as needed, or question current rhetoric or practices, but in the cause of charity, honesty, and human flourishing rather than against it? How do the right and left get caught in echo chambers here? How do we affirm the flawed gifts of the human body, while engaging its most painful experiences? How can we learn better to love and trust people?Our guests today are Dr. Abigail Favale and Pieter Valk. Abby is a writer and professor in the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame. She has an academic background in gender studies and feminist literary criticism, and now writes and teaches on topics related to women and gender from a Catholic perspective. Her latest book is The Genesis of Gender: A Christian Theory. Pieter is a sought-after author and speaker on discernment, vocational singleness, and LGBT+ topics. Pieter is also the Founder and Director ofEquip, the leading coaching and training solution for theologically-traditional churches aspiring to be places where LGBT+ people thrive according to God's wisdom. He is also a teacher and diaconate explorer in the Anglican Church in North America.Pieter's Christianity Today article with stats from the Us Versus Us reportAbby's websitePieter's websiteRegister for a Living Church conferenceGive to support this podcastMentioned in this episode:Click here to learn more about the Transforming Leaders Program

It claims contrary to popular misconceptions, New Zealand's grocery prices are cheaper than those in the UK and Australia, but the snag is only taking GST out of the equation.

Woolworths New Zealand interim managing director is Pieter de Wet spoke to Lisa Owen.

In deze aflevering gaat Pieter in gesprek met Rob Hoppenbrouwers over geld, eigendom, het kapitaalorgaan en horizontaal organiseren. Ooit nam Rob het autoschadebedrijf over van zijn vader, werkte als directeur/eigenaar van dat bedrijf en verkocht het een aantal jaar geleden. En toen? Wat moest Rob nu met het geld en zijn leven? Hij ontdekte Economy Transformers en vond langzaamaan zijn weg in het post-directeur/eigenaar-leven. Anders omgaan met geld en eigendom, geld laten stromen om mensen en hun initiatieven mogelijk te maken, de geldprikkel weghalen en kijken wat er dan gebeurt.

Can We Trust God-Pieter Weenink(Stellenbosch) by GraceLife Podcast

De universiteit en haar hoogleraren profiteerden van de Nederlandse koloniën, blijkt uit een recent rapport. Onderzoeker Ligia Giay vertelt. De Universiteit Leiden bestaat dit jaar 450 jaar. In deze reeks van de UBLpodcast duikt universiteitshistoricus Pieter Slaman in de geschiedenis van de oudste universiteit van Nederland. Dat doet hij aan de hand van stukken uit de Bijzondere Collecties van Universitaire Bibliotheken Leiden (UBL), én met een gast. Voor deze aflevering spreekt hij met Lidia Giay. Zij onderzocht onlangs het koloniale verleden van de Universiteit Leiden, op verzoek van het college van bestuur. Dat rapport werd begin april gepresenteerd. Met tal van concrete voorbeelden schetst Giay hoe bestuurders, wetenschappers en studenten actief waren in koloniale netwerken. Zo leidde de universiteit onder andere theologen op die naar de Oost gingen, en kwam er veel kennis van de Indonesische natuur en cultuur terug naar Nederland. Slaman en Giay gaan samen op een speurtocht naar dit koloniale verleden in Leiden. Daarvoor neemt Giay authentieke stukken mee uit de Bijzondere Collecties van de UBL, en laat Pieter zien wat er in het Leidse straatbeeld nog zichtbaar is van die band tussen de universiteit en de koloniën.

Special: aardbeienbavarois. Wat is het, hoe maak je het, waar komt het vandaan?Host Petra Possel bespreekt met Keukenprins Pieter een gerecht. Vandaag: aardbeienbavarois. Omdat het (bijna) moederdag is, omdat het heel lekker en feestelijk is en ter ere van de aardbei.Een zacht-schuimig dessert met - in het seizoen! - verse aardbeien. Géén pudding, wel in een vorm. Individuele, klein vormpjes kan maar nog mooier in een grote vorm, om te delen. En het wordt helemaal feest als je de bavarois presenteert als een Charlotte Russe, omhuld door lange vingers. "Lepelgebak, zelf gebakken" zou Robèrt van Bekhoven waarschijnlijk zeggen. Maar omdat we niet allemaal finalist van Heel Holland Bakt zijn, kun je ze ook gewoon kopen onder de namen lange vingers, boudoirs of Savoiardi. Het recept voor de bereiding van deze aardbeienbavarois staat uiteráárd op onze site.Wijntip: Coteaux du Layon.Wil je Culinaire Vriend worden? Mail dan met adverteren@smakelijkpodcast.nl

Question: "Hello Honest Money team, I have a question regarding which in your opinion is the better long term (15 years or more) approach: Contributing more than R350k per year to your provident fund or only contributing up to R350k and putting the rest in to a tax free savings account?

“The priesthood is beautiful. Keep thinking about it. Keep praying about it. It's worth it.” Fr. Pieter vanRooyen, pastor at St. Joseph Parish in Ypsilanti and an assistant professor of theology at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, joins Men of the Hearts hosts Fr. Craig Giera and Fr. Drew Mabee to talk about his journey to the priesthood. Having been raised in a nominally Catholic household, it wasn't until he was in college at Michigan State University that Fr. Pieter first began thinking about the priesthood. He shares how his devout grandmother, a high school friend, and a campus Christian group influenced his growing faith and helped open his eyes to his priestly vocation.(0:27) Hosts Fr. Craig Giera and Fr. Drew Mabee introduce their guest this month, Fr. Pieter vanRooyen, pastor at St. Joseph Parish in Ypsilanti and an assistant professor of theology at Sacred Heart Major Seminary. He shares some recent blessings, like participating in Exodus 90 with the men of his parish. Fr. Drew shares his own experiences with Exodus 90. Our hosts and their guest then talk about Fr. Pieter's interest in motorcycles.(8:53) Fr. Craig, who serves as Director of Priestly Vocations for the Archdiocese of Detroit, talks about a recent dinner and evening prayer with Archbishop Vigneron, attended by more than 200 young men discerning the priesthood. Fr. Drew pauses to express gratitude for Archbishop Vigneron's years of ministry and slips in an invitation for Archbishop-designate Weisenburger to be a guest on the podcast after he's installed as Archbishop of Detroit on March 18. (10:22) Fr. Pieter begins sharing his vocation story. He grew up in a nominally Catholic household—he was baptized and received First Communion and Reconciliation, but attended Mass mostly on holidays and was not confirmed as a young teen. When he was in high school, his family moved closer to his devoutly Catholic grandmother, who taught him about the faith and arranged for him to be confirmed. (18:37) Fr. Pieter talks about breaking up with a steady girlfriend and feeling “crushed” by the loss, but ultimately asking himself whether he had “made an idol” of the relationship. He explores the difference between preparing for marriage and casually dating. Even married couples should look to God, not their spouse, as their ultimate source of satisfaction.(22:59) Fr. Pieter enrolled at Michigan State University in the fall of 2001 on a scholarship from the Air Force through ROTC. Within weeks of the semester starting, the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks occurred and Fr. Pieter considered dropping out and enlisting. After some thought, he decided to stay in school. He began attending Mass periodically with a suitemate as well as a Bible study. (30:26) Fr. Pieter recalls spending spring break in Panama City, Florida to attend a Campus Crusade for Christ conference, during which students were sent out “two-by-two” to share the Gospel with beach-goers. One fruit of this trip was Fr. Pieter began praying every day: “Jesus, I give this day to you.” He also began to seek answers about his Catholic faith and returned to Reconciliation for the first time since second grade.(42:12) During the summer before his sophomore year, Fr. Pieter lived with his grandmother in Chicago. It was during this time, while at Adoration with his grandmother, that he first asked God what he should do with his life. In response, the thought unexpectedly came into his head to be a priest. Fr. Pieter shares how he initially dismissed the thought but later told his grandmother, who helped connect him with a priest to explore the vocation.(54:07) After a few years of discernment and living in accordance with Church teachings, Fr. Pieter graduated from MSU and entered Sacred Heart Major Seminary in 2004. He was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Lansing six years later. The group spends some time talking about how a...
