What do businesses owe to faraway workers who make their products? That's the question put by Professor Michael Posner from the NYU Stern School of Business in his new book, Conscience Incorporated: Pursue Profits While Protecting Human Rights. Posner is a world expert in human rights with extensive experience as a human rights lawyer, State Department official under the Obama administration and chair of the Fair Labor Association. He offers a unique perspective on what we can learn from the significant progress the apparel sector has made, the complexities of the solar panel industry, and why human rights should be a business priority alongside performance and revenue. Plus, the evolving risks to human rights coming from the AI space. His message to procurement and supply professionals facing these issues on the frontline is clear: you must find ways of meaningfully delivering on the promises companies are making.

"You wouldn't buy a hundred dollars safe off of Amazon and put a million dollars in it. But that's kind of what Bitcoiners are doing with their hardware wallets." On this episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Erik Cason and Jesse Posner, founders of Vora, join Walker to discuss Bitcoin self-sovereignty, privacy, and security in the age of hyperbitcoinization. They explore how Vora's decentralized cryptographic key storage and advanced privacy tools—like zero-knowledge proofs and trusted execution environments—are designed to empower Bitcoiners with true custody, physical protection, and credible deterrence from $5 wrench attacks to 6102 events. The conversation ties American constitutional values and the castle doctrine to Bitcoin's rise, critiques fiat systems and TradFi narratives, and envisions a future where Bitcoiners own their safety, privacy, and freedom in a post-fiat world. https://vora.io/ FOLLOW ERIK: X: https://x.com/Erikcason Nostr: https://primal.net/erikcason FOLLOW JESSE: X: https://x.com/jesseposner Nostr: https://primal.net/p/nprofile1qqs93lfkaetywpwqkqteju07cr23hns9gt0m7l65d8n66ecfe7lh84syz8q5w THE Bitcoin Podcast Partners: > GET FOLD: https://use.foldapp.com/r/WALKER > SIGN UP FOR THE FOLD BITCOIN REWARDS CREDIT CARD: https://foldapp.com/credit-card?r=UZoiP > Get the BITKIT mobile wallet: https://get.bitkit.to/walker > http://bitbox.swiss/walker -- use promo code WALKER for 5% off the Bitcoin-only Bitbox02 hardware wallet. ***** If you enjoy THE Bitcoin Podcast you can help support the show by doing the following: FOLLOW ME (Walker) on @WalkerAmerica on X | @TitcoinPodcast on X | Nostr Personal (walker) | Nostr Podcast (Titcoin) | Instagram Subscribe to THE Bitcoin Podcast (and leave a review) on Fountain | YouTube | Spotify | Rumble | EVERYWHERE ELSE

Trump takes a stand for property owners—provided they are white and from South Africa. Ben riffs. Emeline Posner explains the bizarre inequities in Illinois property tax law that allow “investors” to buy control of someone else's property. It's an old and sordid flaw in a system that allows the strong to pray on the weak. It's also unconstitutional in light of a recent ruling by the supremes. Emeline is an investigative reporter for the Investigative Project on Race and Equity.

So many people ask me, Sara, how can I get to my daily protein requirement without consuming animal products? After recording this episode with Mege, I thought….think of beans like chicken! I often hear people say, I'm so tired of chicken. Yet, many of us are compelled to find a new and different flavorful recipe to prepare it, right?  So I hope this episode opens your mind to the diverse ways you can add a wide variety of legumes to your meals. We know that when beans, peas, and lentils are combined with other foods, the result is a dish with all of the 9 essential amino acids found in animal products. I'm definitely going to implement some of Mége's time saving and taste tips this week. To learn more visit my website empoweredhealthyliving.org where you can subscribe to my Reset & Launch membership to give you all the tools, strategies, and support you need to transform your life and health. Most of us need support to transform - it's not a question of will power!

Behind every “yes” in the toy industry, there's a mountain of “no's,” countless hours of hustle, and more trial and error than most people expect. At one point, he came close to walking away from it all—until a single line from an episode of Bluey reminded him that making games was exactly what he was meant to do.In this episode Making It In The Toy Industry, I'm joined by the incredibly talented Jeremy Posner, owner of Shenanigans Toys and Games, the inventor behind hit games like Beagle or Bagel, Bears in Barrels, and Piggy Piggy. He's been named to the Mojo Nation 100 SIX times, won Game Innovator of the Year at the TAGIEs, and has worked with some of the biggest names in the toy industry like Hasbro, Mattel, and Spin Master. But here's the plot twist: it took Jeremy EIGHT years to meet his royalty goals. And that's after winning major awards and getting meetings with big companies right out the gate.You're gonna hear why just licensing a game doesn't mean you've made it, what really makes a game “sellable” to toy companies, and why most ideas just don't cut it. Jeremy also explained the real deal with royalties or advances, and how long it actually takes to see a check.  He even shared how he trained his brain to be more creative (yes, that's a thing!).Dreaming of creating the next game night hit or just curious what it really takes to make it in toys and games?Hit play and steal a few smart moves for your next big creative leap.Listen for these Important Moments! [00:03:07] - Despite early wins, including a TAGIE award and a background at Big Monster Toys, Jeremy didn't hit his financial goals from game licensing until eight years in. [00:11:17] - After Toy Fair, Jeremy reflects on the silence that often follows a pitch. He explains how learning why you're hearing “no” (and from whom) is key to improving your ideas and not losing steam.[00:23:00] - Around year four, Jeremy stopped “just creating” and started strategically designing evergreens. He audited his creative process, studied the brain, and trained himself to boost creative output daily.[00:33:04] - Jeremy tests tons of game ideas fast by building quick, minimum viable prototypes. He runs super short playtests to see what's worth developing and keep his creativity flowing.[00:40:35] - Near the end of the episode, Jeremy shares his dream of designing fan experiences for sports teams and creating original game shows, proving he's still dreaming big, even after major success in toys and games.Send The Toy Coach Fan Mail!

What's the difference between a successful freelancer and one who struggles with feast or famine? It's not how good you are at your craft, but how you position yourself to clients. Amy Posner is a seasoned online entrepreneur and business coach who helps digital creative freelancers build breakthrough businesses. Over her 30-year career, she's launched six successful businesses (five of which are still in business today) and mentored thousands of freelancers to success.  Now, Amy focuses on empowering freelancers to grow the business they want by teaching them the skills they need to attract the right clients inside her Complete Breakthrough Freelancer course and on her podcast, Business Badassery. Overcoming Feast or Famine The biggest challenge for freelancers is feast or famine–a windfall of work followed by a period of little to no income. The best way to overcome this is with business systems and processes, so you always have another project in the pipeline. Amy teaches her students skills like writing proposals, selling on calls, and communicating the value they deliver. Many successful freelancers give their clients expert strategic advice, but are selling themselves as order takers–someone who does nothing more than follow orders and create deliverables. If you position yourself as a strategist, you're perceived as much more valuable.  The Difference between an Order Taker and an Expert The primary difference between order takers and experts is that experts deliver an experience, not just deliverables. It starts on the discovery call, when you first connect with the client. High-quality clients want a strategic partner, someone they can trust to give them expert advice and who is interested in getting results. Once you've landed the client, you need to deliver on the experience you've promised. When in doubt, overcommunicate and overdeliver. Again, systems and processes come in handy here. Keep the client in the loop on what's happening, especially for longer projects. Be reliable and do what you say you're going to do. Enjoy this episode with Amy Posner… Soundbytes 12:29-12:43 “I see so many successful freelancers who are giving expert advice, and they're counseling as experts, but they're selling themselves as a creator of deliverables. And you're seen in a very different light.” 18:02-18:21 “The truth is, you don't need a unique perspective. You need a perspective. If a client's going out looking, they don't care that I think the same thing you do. They care what I think. So they're not looking necessarily for originality. They're looking for a stake in the ground, that you believe in something and that you have something to say.”  Quotes “What I noticed was that you could be really great at your craft. And if you didn't have commensurate business skills, you didn't do as well as mediocre craftspeople who had the business side down.” “Nobody gets into business to sell stuff. They get into business because they love doing a thing.”  “I'm a chronic over-deliverer. I like to get invested in people and in getting results.” Links mentioned in this episode: From Our Guest Website: https://amyposner.com/ Connect with Amy Posner on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amyposnerbusinessgrowthmentor/  Connect with brandiD Download our free guide to learn 16 crucial website updates that attract more leads and convert visitors into clients: https://thebrandid.com/website-tweaks/ Ready to elevate your digital presence with a powerful brand or website?

Tariffs have been a hot topic in recent weeks, but this issue has been ongoing. During President Trump's first term, the wine industry was caught flat-footed when, in 2019, the administration put a 25% tariff on still wines from France, Germany, Spain, and the UK (notably, Italy and Portugal were not included) as part of a trade dispute with the EU over subsidies given to Airbus. It was then that my guests – Ben Aneff and Daniel Posner started to organize and get industry leaders together to lobby Congress and try to explain why these tariffs were so harmful to wine. Those tariffs remained in place through 2021, and although there was relief for the last few years, the US Wine Trade Alliance, which was the body that formed out of the initial tariff crisis, continued to exist with Ben at the helm.  In this show, I am honored to have the very busy and very awesome Ben Aneff, a native Texan who now lives in NYC and is the Managing Partner of Tribeca Wine Merchants in New York City, named one of “America's Best Wine Shops” by Food & Wine Magazine, and an “Editor's Favorite” by Wine Spectator. Ben has been actively involved in the fight against wine tariffs – working with all parts of the industry and Congress, and testifying about tariffs' effects at the International Trade Commission.  He is the president of the US Wine Trade Alliance Ben Aneff, President of the U.S. Wine Trade Alliance (USWTA) & Managing Partner of Tribeca Wine Merchants     I also have previous guest and Patron Daniel Posner, owner of Grapes the Wine Company in White Plains, NY. Daniel serves on the Board of Directors of the National Association of Wine Retailers, a national trade organization founded in 2006, for which he served as President from 2011 to 2019. He helped form the USWTA.

On this episode of r-House, your host, Peter Hunt, welcomes Brian Posner, Geothermal Specialist at NOCO Energy Corp.!Together, Peter and Brian discuss a variety of topics, including energy generation and distribution in WNY, energy efficient technology, carbon credit usage, the Climate Leadership & Community Protection Act (CLCRA), developments in renewable/sustainable energy systems, state and federal energy incentives and more.

In this episode of Capital for Good we speak with Michael Posner, the Jerome Kohlberg Professor of Ethics and Finance at NYU's Stern School of Business, director of the school's Center for Business and Human Rights, a long-time leader in the field, luminary thinker, advocate, former State Department Official, and the author of the new book, Conscience Incorporated. We begin with Posner's early interests in international human rights issues, sparked in law school when he was tasked with investigating atrocities in Uganda under Idi Amin. He lays out the principals of early, post-World War II and UN inspired human rights law focused on universality, and the responsibility of governments to promote, protect and enforce human rights. Notably absent from this early framework is the role of business. Posner explains that his interest in the intersection of human rights took shape when he began to observe that large multinational corporations had a critical role to play, particularly when they operated in weak states that lacked the ability to protect human rights. We discuss why companies should care, fundamentally, about human rights on ethical dimensions (“outsourcing might be a smart business strategy, but you can't outsource responsibility if you're the main economic beneficiary,”) and because there are material costs that can arise from irresponsible practices, often reputational crises and/or regulation. We explore the deficiencies of various business frameworks: how and why Milton Friedman's shareholder primacy worldview fails to account for environmental and social externalities and a broader set of stakeholders; how and why ESG conflate environmental and social considerations and emphasize risk rather than meaningful performance on issues like climate change or worker protections. Posner suggests that this moment of backlash against all things ESG, DEI and “woke capitalism” offers us an opportunity to do better. We touch on sometimes complex tensions between climate change and human rights concerns, acknowledging that climate change can only be solved if we transition to a lower carbon economy, with the scale up of renewable energy and the development of technologies like electric vehicles, which in turn rely on things like batteries. We know that today batteries are reliant on inputs like critical minerals, long mined in ways and places rife with human rights challenges, and today often controlled by Chinese companies. China is also the world's largest and lowest cost producer of solar panels, and much of that production occurs in Xinjiang, with forced labor of the Uyghur ethnic minority. Posner discusses a number of ways to better integrate climate and human rights considerations. Before opening the floor to audience questions, we discuss the evolution of technology and human rights issues. When Posner was at the State Department from 2010 to 2012, he had a front tow seat to the Arab Spring and the “Facebook Revolution,” witnessing how activists used social media to fight authoritarianism. Although he says he still believes in the power of technology to open up political discourse, he has become much more concerned about issues of data privacy, surveillance, harmful violent and incendiary content, information and disinformation, and ways in which companies try to shield themselves with first amendment (to which they are not legally subject) to avoid more vigorous content moderation or human rights engagement. We conclude with the role of corporate leaders when it comes to human rights. While Posner notes he is typically conservative about how much executives should speak out on specific issues, he believes strongly that “business leaders need to be attentive and active if there are fundamental threats to our democracy.” This episode of Capital for Good was recorded as part of Social Impact Week 2025, a week of social impact-related events for the Columbia Business School community, organized by the Social Enterprise Club, Green Business Club, Community Impact Club, and LEO Impact Fund.

This week on The Geek in Review, we welcome Zach Posner, co-founder and managing director of The Legal Tech Fund. Zach brings a dynamic mix of first‐hand experience and visionary insight into the world of legal tech investments. The conversation kicks off with a discussion of recent high-profile funding rounds—such as Harvey's $300 million raise—and the growing influx of generalist VC interest in the legal space. This episode sets the stage by framing legal tech as a rapidly evolving market that's finally getting the spotlight it deserves.Decoding Funding Dynamics and Early-Stage ChallengesA key portion of the discussion centers on the inefficiencies of early-stage funding in the legal tech arena. Zach explains that, unlike public markets with readily available metrics, early-stage investments rely heavily on personal relationships and entrepreneurial trust. He highlights how the lack of data and public comparables makes each handshake a significant moment of risk and opportunity. The dialogue provides listeners with an insider's perspective on why leadership credibility and entrepreneurial vision are often more critical than raw business metrics in legal tech startups.Community Building and Collaborative InnovationAnother major theme in the conversation is the importance of community and collaboration. Zach underscores that the Legal Tech Fund isn't just about injecting capital—it's about cultivating an ecosystem where startups, law firms, and legal departments work hand-in-hand. The fund's unique approach of engaging with 65 different portfolio companies daily has fostered a network that benefits from shared insights and strategic partnerships. This community-first approach, according to Zach, is instrumental in driving both innovation and seamless product integration for legal professionals.Embracing AI and User-Centric SolutionsThe conversation takes a forward-looking turn as Zach discusses how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing legal workflows. While many legal tech innovations focus on enhancing efficiency, he stresses that creating an exceptional user experience is paramount. Zach notes that the rapidly evolving AI landscape demands that legal tech startups not only keep pace with technological advancements but also prioritize intuitive design and seamless integration. This approach helps ensure that even as technology becomes more powerful, it remains accessible and directly relevant to the end user.Looking Ahead: The Future of Legal TechWrapping up the episode, Zach offers a crystal ball view of the future, predicting that the next few years will see even more dramatic changes in legal tech. From AI-driven workflow automation to innovative partnerships between law firms and startups, the sector is poised for transformative growth. He encourages legal professionals to experiment, learn continuously, and stay curious about emerging technologies. For listeners eager to explore further, Zach directs them to legaltech.com and TLTFsummit.com, promising more insights and upcoming announcements. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the convergence of law, technology, and innovation.Listen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Blue Sky: ⁠⁠@geeklawblog.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@marlgeb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Transcript

The public often imagines corporations as self-contained actors that provide a set of goods and services to consumers. Underpinning this image have been ideas of ownership, rights to capital and intellectual property, and corporate responsibility to stakeholders including consumers, workers, and shareholders. But what if almost everything we are told about the essence of the firm is wrong? So writes Sir John Kay, a British economist, corporate director, and longstanding fellow of St John's College (Oxford) in his new book, The Corporation in the 21st Century.The book revolves around contrasts between historical conceptions of corporations, capitalism, and contemporary practices. Kay writes, “A central thesis of [this] book is that business has evolved, but the language that is widely used to describe business has not.” In the 19th and 20th centuries, firms could be defined in terms of their control over material forms of productive capital (factories, steel foundries, railways, etc.) Socioeconomic critiques of capitalism, most prominently from Karl Marx, often centered on firms' control of the means of production. Kay contends that firms today access productive capital as a service. For example, Amazon does not own its warehouses but rents them from another firm. Kay writes that today's corporations and capitalism “[have] very little to do with ‘capital' and nothing whatsoever to do with any struggle between capitalists and workers to control the means of production.”Kay joins Luigi and Bethany to discuss the implications of this evolution in firms' relation to capital: Why is it important to capitalism that its biggest firms no longer own their means of production? Why does the language used to describe this matter? What do Apple's manufacturing facilities, Amazon's warehouses, and TikTok's algorithms tell us about our notions of business ownership? How have these changes to capitalism redefined the struggle between the owners of capital, managers, workers, and consumers? In the process, Kay, Luigi, and Bethany explore the failures of capitalism and imagine what could and should be the purpose of the 21st-century corporation.Show Notes:Read an excerpt from the book (published by Yale University Press) on ProMarketIn Bethany and Luigi's closing discussion of Kay's book, Luigi cites several articles he has published on the topic, which we have linked below for the listener's reference. In this past scholarship, Luigi studies how a firm and its operations often intertwine with other firms to form an ecosystem, and it is only through this ecosystem that value is created. Apple and Foxconn provide one example. Legally, they are distinct firms, yet Luigi contends they can be understood as elements of an ecosystem that creates value. Hence, it is sometimes productive to think beyond legal boundaries to consider how multiple firms may compose such a value-creating ecosystem in practice. Within the Apple/Foxconn ecosystem, Apple has a significant influence in dictating terms for Foxconn. Further, if Apple has such dominating power over its suppliers, then Apple could be said to have market power that raises antitrust concerns, which are less obvious if we take the legal boundaries of firms as the correct method of conceptualizing them.Zingales, L., 2000.

In this episode of Simulcast, Vic Brazil is joined by Vicki LeBlanc and Glenn Posner to discuss their recent article "More Than a Feeling: Emotional Regulation Strategies for Simulation-Based Education" published in Advances in Simulation.   The conversation delves into the importance of recognizing and addressing emotions in simulation-based learning environments. Vicki and Glenn share insights on why emotions are often seen as taboo or difficult to manage in simulation, despite being a natural part of clinical practice (and everyday life!). They explain how emotions impact cognitive processes like attention, judgment and memory, and why ignoring them can hinder learning objectives.  We explore practical strategies for identifying emotional cues, assessing whether emotions are helpful or hindering, and employing implicit or explicit regulation techniques. We emphasize the need to normalize emotional responses and view them as valuable data, rather than something to be avoided.  The article aims to provide simulation educators with a comprehensive framework for understanding and responding to the emotional aspects of simulation-based learning. It challenges the notion that simulation should be a purely rational endeavour, underscoring the vital role emotions play in preparing healthcare learners for the realities of clinical practice.  Happy listening!

When Zach Posner was last on this podcast, it was 2021 and he was less than a year into having cofounded The LegalTech Fund, the first venture capital firm to be laser-focused on law and legal technology. Since then, his firm, of which he is managing director, has gone on to build up a portfolio of more than 60 legal tech companies in which it invests.  His firm has also launched his own conference, the TLTF Summit, which will convene for the third straight year starting Dec. 4 in Key Biscayne, Fla. After attending the first summit, LawNext host Bob Ambrogi wrote in his review, “It was a superlative conference – one like no other conference in legal tech.” We've been wanting to get Zach back on this podcast for an update, and as it happens, he was in attendance at the recent Clio Cloud Conference, where we were set up with my mics and recording equipment. So Zach and Bob sat down for this impromptu conversation about his firm, his conference, and his thoughts on the legal tech landscape.    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

Discover the Unexpected Power of Self-Expression with Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour!

As freelancers and solo professionals, we often (unknowingly) sabotage our own success from the very first interaction with a prospect.   We present ourselves and our services in a way that works against us. It erodes trust and diminishes our perceived value before we even begin working with a potential client.   It often starts the moment we ask our clients, "What can I do for you?"   This simple question can unknowingly shift us from being experts in our field to mere order-takers, losing control of our own business direction.   From there, it shows up in what we say to clients and prospects. What we offer. How we price our work. How we position ourselves in the market. And how we talk about what we do and the value we deliver.   In this episode, we're diving deep into this critical issue. My guest is , an experienced freelance professional and entrepreneur who has mastered the art of positioning herself as an expert rather than an order-taker.   Amy shares invaluable insights on how to regain control of your freelance business, build authority with clients, and establish yourself as the go-to expert in your field.   We explore a number of important topics, including:   Recognizing when you've fallen into the order-taker role and how to break free Practical steps to shift from order-taker to expert (and yes, you ARE more of an expert than you realize!) Building and demonstrating authority—even if you're shy or introverted Setting boundaries and managing client expectations Developing the communication skills and confidence needed to position yourself as an expert   Whether you're a seasoned freelancer looking to level up your business or still in the early stages of growing your practice, this episode offers valuable insights to help you take back the power in your business and truly thrive as a freelance professional.   I hope you find our conversation enlightening and actionable!

From June 29, 2020: Jack Goldsmith sat down with Eric Posner, the Kirkland & Ellis Distinguished Service Professor of Law at the University of Chicago, and the author of the new book, "The Demagogue's Playbook: The Battle for American Democracy from the Founders to Trump." They discussed why demagogues are a characteristic threat in democracies, how the founders of the U.S. Constitution tried to ensure elite control and prevent a demagogue from becoming president, how these safeguards weakened over time and how Donald Trump's demagoguery helped him win election as president. They also explored how Posner's perception of Trump as a threat to American democracy fits with his writings in support of a powerful president.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
