In this episode, Ricardo introduces the concept of nano projects: ultra-short, highly focused initiatives lasting just a few days, designed to generate value quickly. Unlike megaprojects, which require months or years, nano projects respond to the need for speed and adaptation in a fast-paced world. Examples include testing a marketing channel in five days, redesigning hospital processes in a week, or running rapid pilots in the public sector. Their advantages include low risk, rapid learning, and greater team engagement, as results are quickly seen. However, they require a well-defined scope, discipline, and attention to quality. Ricardo emphasizes that they complement traditional models, helping to reduce uncertainty and stimulate innovation in short cycles. Listen to the podcast to learn more!

Neste episódio, Ricardo apresenta o conceito de nano projetos, iniciativas ultracurtas, com foco extremo e duração de poucos dias, criadas para gerar valor rapidamente. Diferente dos megaprojetos, que exigem meses ou anos, os nano projetos respondem à necessidade de velocidade e adaptação em um mundo acelerado. Exemplos incluem testar um canal de marketing em cinco dias, redesenhar processos hospitalares em uma semana ou executar pilotos rápidos no setor público. Suas vantagens são: baixo risco, aprendizado rápido e maior engajamento da equipe, já que os resultados aparecem rapidamente. Contudo, exigem escopo bem definido, disciplina e atenção à qualidade. Ricardo destaca que eles complementam os modelos tradicionais, ajudando a reduzir incertezas e estimulando a inovação em ciclos curtos. Escute o podcast para saber mais!

Chris Holman welcomes Pete Martin, Director of Portfolio Management, MSU Research Foundation, East Lansing, MI. Welcome Pete tell us a little about the MSU Research Foundation and the PitchMI Startup Competition? Michigan's Innovation Showcase PitchMI is now one of the nation's richest state-based startup competitions, offering $4 million in investment. How does this expanded competition elevate Michigan's position as a leader in startup innovation and funding? Regional & Statewide Strategy The competition features four regionally themed events—healthcare in Grand Rapids, clean tech in Traverse City, mobility in Detroit, and AI/software in Ann Arbor—each awarding $250,000, with finalists moving on to compete for a $1 million prize. What's the strategic intent behind aligning region with specific startup industries, and how does it benefit both local ecosystems and statewide momentum? Building Momentum & Ecosystem Engagement Regional winners receive funding and, importantly, time to grow before the statewide finals—an intentional six-month runway for impact and support. Why is this momentum-building phase so critical, and what role do regional networks and ecosystems play in supporting startup trajectories? Long-Term Vision & Scalability With $3 million from the Michigan Innovation Fund and $1 million from Michigan Rise ensuring this is a multi-year initiative, PitchMI aims to run through 2026 and potentially become annual. How does this level of long-term funding and planning reflect Michigan's broader economic development priorities? Equity & Access in Startup Support Although each region focuses thematically, startups from anywhere in Michigan can enter any regional event that matches their focus. How does PitchMI's open and inclusive structure help break down geographic silos and create equitable opportunities across the state's innovation ecosystem? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/

What if retirement feels more like a rut than a reward? In this episode, Jim Fox tackles the emotional side of retirement—boredom, purpose, and the one-third of retirees who aren’t happier after leaving work. Through personal stories and heartfelt advice, Jim encourages listeners to build a “punch list” of meaningful goals and find fulfillment beyond finances. Whether it’s volunteering, reconnecting with family, or rediscovering a passion, this episode is a reminder that happiness in retirement starts with intention, not income.

In this episode, Ricardo questions whether Agile is still sufficient in the face of the speed of artificial intelligence. Created in 2001, the Agile Manifesto introduced short iterations and continuous learning to address the unpredictability of software development. However, today, tools become obsolete in days, raising questions about the relevance of 2- to 4-week cycles or a quarterly backlog. Vargas doesn't criticize Agile—on the contrary, he recognizes its essential role for organizations in dealing with volatility. The point is to reflect on how to apply it intelligently in the face of the rapidity of AI: smaller microcycles? More discipline? An "Agile 2.0" that includes governance, ethics, and social responsibility? The challenge is adapting to the current intensity of change. Listen to the podcast to learn more!

Neste episódio, Ricardo questiona se o Ágil ainda é suficiente diante da velocidade da inteligência artificial. Criado em 2001, o Manifesto Ágil trouxe interações curtas e aprendizado contínuo para enfrentar a imprevisibilidade do desenvolvimento de software. Porém, hoje, ferramentas tornam-se obsoletas em dias, levantando dúvidas sobre a relevância de ciclos de 2 a 4 semanas ou de um backlog trimestral. Vargas não critica o Ágil — ao contrário, reconhece seu papel essencial para organizações lidarem com volatilidade. O ponto é refletir sobre como aplicá-lo de forma inteligente frente à rapidez da IA: microciclos menores? Mais disciplina? Um “Ágil 2.0” que inclua governança, ética e responsabilidade social? O desafio é adaptar-se à intensidade atual das mudanças. Escute o podcast para saber mais!

In this week's episode, Ricardo questions whether artificial intelligence (AI) actually reduces project risks or creates new ones. While it helps predict delays, identify flaws, and minimize errors, AI can create invisible risks, such as data bias, which distorts results, and "blind trust," when professionals accept predictions without critical analysis. Another risk is technological dependence: if the tool fails or disappears, the project could stall. There are also ethical and legal questions about who is responsible for AI's misguided decisions. Vargas emphasizes that AI is neither a villain nor an absolute solution. It should be seen as an ally, but always with human oversight, contingency plans, and clear accountability from managers. Listen to the podcast to learn more!

No episódio desta semana, Ricardo questiona se a inteligência artificial (IA) realmente reduz riscos em projetos ou se também cria novos. Embora ajude a prever atrasos, identificar falhas e minimizar erros, a IA pode gerar riscos invisíveis, como viés nos dados, que distorce resultados, e a “confiança cega”, quando profissionais aceitam previsões sem análise crítica. Outro risco é a dependência tecnológica: se a ferramenta falhar ou desaparecer, o projeto pode parar. Há ainda questões éticas e legais sobre quem responde por decisões equivocadas da IA. Vargas reforça que a IA não é vilã nem solução absoluta. Ela deve ser vista como aliada, mas sempre com supervisão humana, planos de contingência e responsabilidade clara dos gestores.

Municipal Bond Fund Collapse: Why Direct Portfolio Management Protects Kentucky Retirement Plans When a municipal bond fund collapsed 50% in just two days, it sent shockwaves through the investment world […] The post Municipal Bond Fund Collapse: Why Direct Portfolio Management Protects Kentucky Retirement Plans appeared first on Dupree Financial.

Key Asian stock gauges fluctuated Wednesday after the S&P 500 hit a record on hopes the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates to curb a jobs downturn. Shares in South Korea rose in early trading, while those in Japan and Australia were mixed. US equity futures contracts edged higher after Big Tech lifted the index on Tuesday, even as most shares fell. After fresh signs of a cooling labor market, investors are bracing for inflation reports in the coming days that will help shape next week's Fed meeting and the path of rate cuts into 2025 — a key test for whether Wall Street can sustain this month's rally. Money markets are almost fully projecting three Fed cuts this year, with US producer and consumer price index data due this week. We take a closer look with Zachary Hill, Head of Portfolio Management at Horizon Investments.Meantime, the yen was little changed early Wednesday after gaining Tuesday, following a report that Bank of Japan officials may raise interest rates again this year, regardless of domestic political instability. The timing of the BOJ report will make JGB traders a bit nervous about today's 5-year auction, which could mean a lower bid-to-cover ratio than last month's 2.96. However, after an initial knee-jerk selloff investors will likely find that secondary yields above 1% already price in a BOJ tightening. For more, we hear from Robert Tipp, Chief Investment Strategist and Head of Global Bonds at PGIM Fixed Income. He speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on The Asia Trade.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, Ricardo explains the "broken windows" theory, which originated in criminology, and how it applies to project management. The central idea is that minor signs of disorder, when ignored, lead to bigger problems. In projects, accepting delays or failures without correction sends the message that quality and discipline are unimportant, opening the door to widespread carelessness. Therefore, it's crucial to quickly correct violations, maintain organized processes, and set an example of consistency and accountability. It's not about micromanaging, but about demonstrating that attention to detail protects the project. Often, it's not major disasters that destroy it, but the accumulation of minor oversights that undermine trust and results. Listen to the podcast to learn more!

No episódio desta semana, Ricardo explica a teoria das “janelas quebradas”, originada na criminologia, e como ela se aplica ao gerenciamento de projetos. A ideia central é que pequenos sinais de desordem, quando ignorados, levam a problemas maiores. Em projetos, aceitar atrasos ou falhas sem correção transmite a mensagem de que qualidade e disciplina não são importantes, abrindo espaço para descuido generalizado. Por isso, é fundamental corrigir rapidamente violações, manter processos organizados e dar exemplo de consistência e responsabilidade. Não se trata de microgerenciar, mas de mostrar que atenção aos detalhes protege o projeto. Muitas vezes não são grandes desastres que o destroem, mas o acúmulo de pequenas negligências que comprometem a confiança e os resultados. Escute o podcast para saber mais!

In this episode, Ricardo discusses the concept of "silent success" in projects. Managers often highlight dramatic stories: impossible deadlines met, small teams overcoming limitations, or difficult clients. These narratives attract attention, but true success can be more discreet: well-managed risks, on-time deliveries, a motivated team, and aligned stakeholders. Without memorable crises, this work is often seen as luck or an easy project, when in fact it results from careful planning, constant communication, and early strategic decisions. Ricardo warns that it's necessary to review metrics and value these managers, as they are the ones who truly deliver the expected results, without relying on the spectacle of the crisis. Listen to the podcast to learn more.

Neste episódio, Ricardo discute o conceito de “sucesso silencioso” em projetos. Muitas vezes, gestores destacam histórias dramáticas: prazos impossíveis cumpridos, equipes pequenas que superam limites ou clientes difíceis. Essas narrativas chamam atenção, mas o verdadeiro sucesso pode ser mais discreto: riscos bem gerenciados, entregas no prazo, equipe motivada e stakeholders alinhados. Sem crises memoráveis, esse trabalho é frequentemente visto como sorte ou projeto fácil, quando na verdade resulta de planejamento cuidadoso, comunicação constante e decisões estratégicas antecipadas. Ricardo alerta que é preciso rever métricas e valorizar esses gestores, pois são eles que realmente entregam os resultados esperados, sem depender do espetáculo da crise.

Rates & Fed Policy: Markets are overly optimistic on rate cuts; inflation remains sticky, keeping the Fed cautious (DeepMacro).Equity Positioning: Systematic funds are heavily tilted toward equities, with allocations at or near record highs (MenthorQ).China Equities: Narrowing gap between H-shares and A-shares signals opportunity; liquidity and household cash provide strong support (HSBC).Market Breadth: Short-term indicators are overbought, but long-term breadth remains healthy (Dantes Outlook).Fixed Income: Attractive yields unlikely to return to pre-pandemic lows; belly of the curve (5–6 year maturities) offers a balance of income and rate risk (Vanguard).Municipals & Credit: Municipal bonds and investment-grade credit stand out as high-quality, inexpensive options.Equities: Active managers struggle against the Magnificent Seven; indexing provides a strong foundation, while Industrials, Financials, and Healthcare offer selective momentum opportunities (Morningstar, Dantes Outlook).Takeaway: Stay disciplined, revisit bond allocations, and avoid overstretching for yield or risk.

In this episode, Ricardo explores the paradox of projects that were executed with excellence — on time, on budget, and within the original scope — but ultimately fail to deliver real value because the world changed during execution. The pandemic, accelerated digital transformation, new regulations, or even political and social shifts can make what was promised at the start of the project no longer relevant at the time of delivery. Listen to the podcast to learn more.

Today's Episode is fun and insightful from start to finish and that is entirely down to my guests. One of the great Eureka moments in insurance comes when you meet an actuary who is a great communicator. Five minutes chatting to them usually unlocks understanding that would take you years to glean yourself, or which indeed you may never have worked out without their help. Luckily today I am talking not to one, but two such people. Simon Pollack (pictured top) is the Founder and Director and Owen Whelan is the Managing Director of Calibrant, a really interesting, relatively young business concentrating on portfolio management, particularly in the burgeoning field of Delegated Underwriting Authority. With MGAs continually gaining market share and also garnering extra scrutiny from senior managers and market regulators, Calibrant is in a fast-growing segment of the market. The core of what Calibrant and its Sybil software platform does is to wring improvements to the loss ratio of underwriting portfolios through joined-up, granular analysis. It sounds simple in theory, but in practice bridging all the gaps between the underwriting, reserving, pricing and senior management functions is the culmination of Simon and Owen's multi-decade experience in the industry. This is a duo right on the top of their game and this podcast is absolutely packed with valuable insights garnered from long and successful careers in our business. Simon and Owen met as London Market drinking buddies and you should think of this podcast as a very enjoyable chat in a bar with two great friends and a glass of your favourite tipple in your hand. You'll learn a lot and after listening to this I expect you'll want to spend a lot more time with this fun and down-to-earth duo. LINKS: https://www.calibrantinsurance.com/
