Inside ownership can give companies an advantage when it comes to long-term growth. That includes having a leader or family with a substantial stake in the business. And it also covers firms with farsighted backers, such as philanthropic foundations, which encourage management to take the long view. From airline Ryanair to hearing aid specialist Demant, investment manager Jenny Davis explores how having skin in the game drives firms to act with persistence. Background:Jenny Davis is a Baillie Gifford partner and an investment manager in our International Alpha Team. She specialises in companies based outside the US that offer ‘quality growth' – combining the potential for outperformance with durability.In this podcast, she explores how persistent, inside ownership works to the advantage of companies she has backed. Examples include firms with founders who have retained a significant stake, those with long-serving hired leaders rewarded with shares and other long-term incentives, companies with family owners where control has passed between generations, and businesses backed by a foundation or holding company with long-term objectives.Companies covered include:Discovery – the health insurer that has gone global, using data to nudge customers into improving their fitness.Ryanair – the European airline that benefited from its chief executive's obsession with controlling costs.Technoprobe – the family-run ‘probe card' specialist whose ability to spot faults in computer chips has kept pace with semiconductors' increasing complexity.Demant – the hearing aid specialist backed by a charitable foundation, which has invested in getting closer to its customers.Scout24 – the German property portal whose independence Baillie Gifford helped preserve, allowing it to pursue a successful long-term growth strategy.Resources: Baillie GiffordA new age of discovery: the case for international (restricted to certain clients)Pioneers: 8 Principles of Business Longevity from Immigrant EntrepreneursShort Briefings on Long Term Thinking Companies mentioned include:DemantDiscovery LtdFerrariHermèsInvestor ABLVMHNovo NordiskRichemontRyanairScout24ShimanoTechnoprobeTSMCTimecodes:00:00 Introduction01:55 The “scenic route” to asset management03:00 Focusing on quality growth04:35 Persistence's enduring edge05:45 Different types of inside ownership06:30 Discovery's healthy nudges08:10 Adrian Gore's visionary leadership09:45 How Michael O'Leary turbocharged Ryanair12:45 Ryanair's scale advantage14:00 Technoprobe's family leadership16:25 Engaging with Richemont's Johan Rupert18:30 Demant's long-term philanthropic backer20:55 Providing persistence's benefits to Scout2422:55 Selling out of Credit Suisse24:30 Persistence and alignment26:10 Book choice

In this episode of The Mission Matters podcast, Ted Esler welcomes guests Matthew Ellison and Denny Spitters from Sixteen:Fifteen to discuss their new book, The Sending Shepherd: Leading Churches to Disciple All Nations. The book emerges from a Barna study commissioned in partnership with Pioneers, which surveyed over 400 U.S. Protestant pastors about their understanding of missions. The results reveal concerning trends: missions is rarely taught or preached, the definition of missions is widely diluted, and there's a significant disconnect between pastoral passion for the Great Commission and actual church engagement in global missions. The authors argue that pastoral leadership is critical to reversing this decline and sparking a new missions mobilization movement in the American Church.Despite the challenges, the research also points to encouraging opportunities. While only 27% of pastors report strong passion for global missions, 74% affirm the importance of the Great Commission, and 98% see missions as a biblical mandate. Matthew and Denny emphasize that this gap is a strategic opportunity. We can start to address it with clear definitions, scriptural teaching, and equipping pastors to become "sending shepherds." They encourage church leaders to connect local outreach passions with global needs and to shift from consumer-driven topical teaching to narrative-rich biblical exposition. The book offers a compelling, data-driven call to action for pastors, missions leaders, and mobilizers alike.The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God's people to be a part of His mission.thesendingshepherd.com1615.org/sendingshepherd

"Immigrant entrepreneurs are powerful at reframing. Reframing rejection. Reframing failure. Reframing their past." - Dr. Neri Karra SillamanWhat if the hardest chapter of your life - the one where you lost everything - turned out to be the thing that shaped you into the leader you were always meant to be? In this episode, I talk with Dr. Neri Karra Sillaman, whose journey from child refugee to Oxford professor and global entrepreneur is nothing short of incredible.

This week's “How She Finds Purpose” insight comes from Neri Karra Sillaman. She says – “It is never about you. All the entrepreneurs I talk to, that's the most surprising element. When they were building the businesses, it was never about them. They never thought of themselves as the sun in the middle, and they are this leader that is shining out their intelligence and benevolence to others, but they are thinking of others first. And that's what creates business longevity.” Here are 3 reasons why you should listen to this episode: You'll hear how Neri made the bold decision to walk away from a successful family business to pursue what really lit her up—and the moment she knew it was time. You'll learn why so many immigrant entrepreneurs build businesses that last, and how those same principles can apply to your life and work. You'll get real insight into what it means to live with purpose, even when it means going against expectations and choosing yourself. Born in communist Bulgaria and once a refugee living in a tent, Neri shares how education became her North Star, how she built a global luxury goods brand with her family, and why stepping away from it all led her to the work she was truly meant to do. Neri Karra Sillaman is a globally recognized entrepreneur, author, and advisor to leaders worldwide. She's also the founder of a luxury leather goods brand, a former associate professor, and author of Pioneers: Eight Principles of Business Longevity from Immigrant Entrepreneurs.

This week, we're revisiting one of our most compelling conversations—with Damien Riehl, a technology lawyer, coder, and thought leader at the intersection of law and innovation. At the time of our conversation, Damien was vice president and Solutions Champion at vLex. vLex recently made headlines with its acquisition by Clio, which is a move that signals a new chapter in the evolution of legal technology. So, we thought now is an apt time to replay this conversation with Damien. His career has spanned roles at Thomson, Reuters, Fastcase, and the SALI Alliance. Our discussion touched on a wide range of topics: his early experience as a tech attorney, the complexities of confidentiality and legal AI, music copyright, and the enduring value of a liberal arts education. We hope you enjoy this encore episode as much as we did. Our guest today is Damien Riehl, vice president and Solutions Champion at vLex, a platform using artificial intelligence solutions to streamline workflows and provide lawyers with greater access to knowledge and resources. Damien was a tech attorney for more than 10 years when he made the leap to Thomson Reuters as Senior Product Strategist, where he developed innovative legal technology involving artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing. Inspired by Ed Walters' efforts to democratize the law, Damien later joined Fastcase, where he served various roles building out legal tools and systems. In his current position at vLex, Damien helps lead the design, development, and expansion of products. Additionally, Damien is part of the leadership team at the Standards Advancement for the Legal Industry (SALI) Alliance. He is also co-founder of All the Music LLC, a project that involved copyrighting 471 billion melodies and placing them in the public domain. In 2019, Damien delivered a TED Talk in which he describes this process and offers a new way to handle copyright infringement lawsuits in music. In today's conversation, Damien discusses vLex's newest product—Vincent AI, his decision to leave practice and join Thomson Reuters, the genesis of All the Music, and the future of teaching legal research.

Listen in this week for a powerful case study in business longevity for women entrepreneurs who want to build wealth and make an impact their way.

With the boys still recovering from SABR last week in Dallas, it's a perfect time to revisit the great Larry Doby, who never gets nearly enough attention. It's probably fair to say that no more important player in baseball history has been talked about less than Larry Doby, the second African-American to break the color line as a player and a manager, which happened 73 and 42 years ago this week, respectively. Mike and Bill try to rectify that just a little, looking back at Doby's life before getting the chance to integrate the American League and the incredible contributions he made after it. Plus, happy birthday to Al Downing and Tony Armas Sr! Back next week with a new episode.

The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
Hosted by Steve Nerlich. Looking askance… Dear Cheap Astronomy – have we got any spacecraft on the other side of the Sun? Well, yes and no. Nearly all our spacecraft orbit the Sun – since they are either orbiting Earth or another planet or are touring the asteroid belt – and hence they've all been around the back of the Sun at one time another. The only spacecraft we don't have orbiting the Sun are the ones on their way out of the Solar System – the Pioneers, the Voyagers and New Horizons, which have sufficient escape velocities to leave solar orbit. Dear Cheap Astronomy – Hubble crisis So there's a crisis in cosmology apparently. Although, in most respects it's just business as usual really. There aren't many scientists who are overwhelmed by existential angst when they suddenly realize they don't know everything. The crisis first started being talked around 2014 as it became apparent there consistent discrepancies in measurements of the Hubble constant, which is a measurement of how fast the Universe is expanding.

The history of the Brazilian gymnastics program, from its humble beginnings in the 1970s to Olympic glory in 2024 This week's episode is a commission from our Olympic Fantasy Gymnastics winner, Liam, who wants us to discuss the history of Brazilian gymnastics. From trailblazers like Daiane dos Santos and Daniele Hypolito who put Brazilian gymnastics on the map, to the current stars, Flavia Saraiva and Rebeca Andrade. GymCastic LIVE in CHICAGO: Tickets on sale now Get Tickets Setting the Scene How the Brazilian teams of recent years embody the energy of badass, confident adult women who do gymnastics as a team sport Why we think Marta Karolyi would probably hate the 2024 Brazilian Olympic team (in the most complimentary way possible) The early days of Brazilian Gymnastics When did Brazil send its first team to Worlds? Why we need a Brazilian gymnastics shrine dedicated to Claudia Costa How did the program start gaining momentum during the 1980s? The tumultuous 1990s: from finishing dead last at 1991 Worlds, to defeating the United States at the 1997 Pan Am Championships, what was going on in these years? The Pioneers of Career Longevity Nearly every Brazilian gymnast who has ever won a World or Olympic medal has continued with the sport past age 25. What does this tell us about the program's emphasis on career longevity? What do Jade Barbosa and Oksana Chusovitina have in common? Hint: it's more than just being a great vaulter The First Stars of Brazilian Gymnastics Daniele Hypolito wins Brazil's first-ever World medal at 2001 Worlds and finishes fourth all-around How the success of 2003 Worlds put Brazil on the gymnastics map thanks to greats like Daiane dos Santos and Lais Souza Innovative skills throughout the years from Dos Santos's piked double-arabian to Oliveira's double-arabian pike half-out The Birth of a Powerhouse Brazil starts bringing foreign coaches in: Oleg Ostapenko, Iryna Illyashenko, how did this contribute to Brazil's rise? Jade Barbosa's incredible senior debut at 2007 Worlds, winning Brazil's first-ever all-around medal In 2008, the powerhouse team of Jade Barbosa, Ana Cláudia Silva, Ethiene Franco, Laís Souza, Daniele Hypólito, and Daiane dos Santos helped Brazil qualify to the Olympic team finals for the first time EVERRR Controversies and DRAAMMAA Did you know Daiane dos Santos had a 5-month ban in 2009-2010 for diuretic usage following a surgery? Jade Barbosa was taken out of the London Olympics because of a *checks notes* apparel sponsorship conundrum? Gymnastics sabotage??!! That time someone cut the power at Brazilian Nationals Struggling Towards the Rio Olympics Era (2012-2015) Things were looking rough heading into the Rio quad No World or Olympic all-around finalists in 2012, 2013, 2014 Brazil did not automatically qualify a team to the Rio Olympics The emergence of Rebeca Andrade, Flavia Saraiva, and Lorrane Oliveira and how their success reshaped the program The Rio Olympic Games (2016) What were the expectations for this team heading into a home Olympic Games? Could Brazil have medalled as a team here? What were the standout performances? Event finals? The Perseverance Era (2017-2020) Rebeca Andrade has not one, but two more ACL tears (2017, 2019) No World or Olympic medals between Barbosa's 2010 vault and Andrade's 2021 Tokyo performance The Age of Brazil (2021-present) Rebeca Andrade's amazing comeback performance at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, taking all-around silver and vault gold 2021 Kitakyushu Worlds: Rebeca's strategy to protect her body and play the long game Andrade wins her first World vault title 2022 Liverpool Worlds: Andrade takes home vault gold, floor bronze, and a fourth-place team placement 2023 Antwerp Worlds: The Brazilian team takes home SIX medals Team silver, Andrade all-around silver, vault gold, beam bronze, floor silver and bronze The Paris Olympic Games Brazil's historic team final performance, Andrade's floor gold, all-around silver, and vault silver What Are the Next Steps for Brazil? Building depth Remember the cautionary tales of the Romanian and Australian programs: don't be too reliant upon veterans to come and save the day; you need to invest in the next generation! Should Brazil's 2025 Pan American Championships performance worry us? Do we think there will be a "Rebeca Andrade effect" in Brazil and inspire more young kids to try gymnastics?

This episode is a little different from what we usually cover on New Frontiers, but it's one I couldn't wait to bring to you. I've been thinking a lot about how we—as clinicians—are supposed to keep up in this era of high-throughput technology. We're swimming in data: labs, multi-omics, diet logs… and an ever-growing stream from wearables. There's just so much coming at us, and too often, we're awash in a sea of information without adequate interpretive power. That's why this conversation with Dr. Rana el Kaliouby felt so important. She's not just an AI scientist—she's a visionary and a total badass. She's building technology that doesn't just process data, but actually helps us become better clinicians and better humans. We get into the ethics, the potential, the parenting implications—and yes, a personal story about a tragedy in my own hometown that made this all hit very close to home. This one's powerful, and I hope it sparks the same questions and inspiration for you as it did for me. ~DrKF TRIGGER WARNING This episode touches on sensitive topics, including gun violence and suicide, in the context of empathy, mental health, and technology. If you or someone you know is struggling, please seek help. We share this with care and hope it offers support and perspective.

What if everything you learned about health and medical school is missing the real secrets to thriving, energetic living? In this premiere episode of the 2025 season of Health Hacks, Mark L. White pulls back the curtain on cutting-edge approaches that most doctors still aren't teaching—straight from one of Miami's leaders in regenerative and functional medicine, Dr. Kendrick Heywood. Episode Summary: Join host Mark L. White and guest Dr. Kendrick Heywood for a deep dive into the essential “five pillars” of health—covering everything from individualized nutrition, gene-driven exercise, optimal supplementation, hormone optimization, and breakthrough biohacks. Dr. Heywood reveals how he transitioned from traditional internal medicine to the forefront of anti-aging therapies, why most med schools still neglect these advancements, and how everyday patients (not just athletes!) can radically transform their health outcomes. Key Highlights: Myth-Busting Medicine: Discover why Dr. Heywood says 0% of what he uses today to optimize patient health was taught in med school. Personalized Diet & Exercise: Learn why the best approach for you isn't a fad diet—but a regimen designed for your unique genetic makeup. Hormone Optimization Demystified: Get the real story on hormone therapies, peptides, and why targeting the “top end” of health can change everything. Next-Level Biohacks: From red light therapy and hypberbaric chambers to exosomes and shockwave treatment—find out which futuristic tools Dr. Heywood recommends and why. Behind-the-Scenes Stories: Hear the incredible story of how Dr. Heywood saved NBA legend Dennis Rodman, and what it means to go above and beyond for patient care. Putting It Into Action—Listener Takeaways: Assess Your Pillars: Start by evaluating your own five pillars—are you optimizing each, or stuck in old routines? Get Personalized: Consider genetic testing to unlock your best diet and fitness plan, rather than chasing one-size-fits-all trends. Explore Biohacks Safely: Research and, if possible, consult with experts about the safest, most effective regenerative therapies (like red light therapy or IV vitamin drips). Ask About Hormones & Peptides: If you keep hitting fitness or wellness plateaus, consult a forward-thinking practitioner about hormone and peptide therapies tailored to your needs (not just based on “normal” ranges). Connect for Expert Guidance: Follow Dr. Heywood on Instagram (@drkenhaywood) for daily educational tips and updates on the latest in health optimization.

This episode is adapted from a section of my new upcoming book, Broadway Nation — How Immigrant, Jewish, Queer, and Black Artists Invented the Broadway Musical, which will be released on July 24 (and can be preordered now everywhere books are sold.) In 1919, two gifted young Queer theater artists — Hassard Short and John Murray Anderson —both made their Broadway directing debuts and quickly established themselves as significant forces in the development of the Broadway musical. Even though their names and their work are seldom remembered or acknowledged today, In my view they are, without a doubt, two of the principal inventors of the singular art and craft of Broadway musical staging. Working as competitive colleagues and rivals, they were among the very first to discover and reveal the tremendous impact that dynamic musical staging can provide to a Broadway musical and among the very first to demonstrate how staging and choreography can often be of equal importance to a show's book, music, and lyrics. Between them, John Murray Anderson and Hassard Short staged more than 70 Broadway musicals, and in the process forged a path that a long line of remarkable (and predominantly gay) directors and choreographers have followed right up to today, including this past week's Tony Award-nominees and Tony winners. Whether they know it or not, they all stand on the shoulders of these forgotten giants, Hassard Short and John Murray Anderson. Today, I am honored to share at least a small piece of their story.
