Pakistan has struggled throughout its existence to attain political stability and sustained social development. Its capital is Islamabad, in the foothills of the Himalayas in the northern part of the country, and its largest city is Karachi, in the south on the coast of the Arabian Sea. Pakistan Pakistan Mohammed Ali Jinnah Mohammed Ali Jinnah tomb of Mohammed Ali Jinnah tomb of Mohammed Ali Jinnah Pakistan was brought into being at the time of the partition of British India, in response to the demands of Islamic nationalists: as articulated by the All India Muslim League under the leadership of Mohammed Ali Jinnah, India's Muslims would receive just representation only in their own country. From independence until 1971, Pakistan (both de facto and in law) consisted of two regions—West Pakistan, in the Indus River basin in the northwestern portion of the Indian subcontinent, and East Pakistan, located more than 1,000 miles (1,600 km) to the east in the vast delta of the Ganges-Brahmaputra river system. In response to grave internal political problems that erupted in civil war in 1971, East Pakistan was proclaimed the independent country of Bangladesh. Gilgit-Baltistan: Hunza River valley Gilgit-Baltistan: Hunza River valley Pakistan encompasses a rich diversity of landscapes, starting in the northwest, from the soaring Pamirs and the Karakoram Range through a maze of mountain ranges, a complex of valleys, and inhospitable plateaus, down to the remarkably even surface of the fertile Indus River plain, which drains southward into the Arabian Sea. It contains a section of the ancient Silk Road and the Khyber Pass, the famous passageway that has brought outside influences into the otherwise isolated subcontinent. Lofty peaks such as K2 and Nanga Parbat, in the Pakistani-administered region of Kashmir, present a challenging lure to mountain climbers. Along the Indus River, the artery of the country, the ancient site of Mohenjo-daro marks one of the cradles of civilization. Yet, politically and culturally, Pakistan has struggled to define itself. Established as a parliamentary democracy that espoused secular ideas, the country has experienced repeated military coups, and religion—that is to say, adherence to the values of Sunni Islam—has increasingly become a standard by which political leaders are measured. In addition, parts of northern Pakistan—particularly the areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa formerly designated as Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA)—have become a haven for members of several

Manika Kaur, Ali Riaz Baqar, Gurujas Khalsa and Abi Sampa discuss individual definitions of success, why you're going to offend somebody no matter what music you make, the rollercoaster effect, and what their studio spaces look like. Manika Kaur is a singer and contemporary performer of Sikh kirtan music. Predominately performed by men in gurdwara temples, kirtans are devotional singing or sacred chants. Manika is changing the landscape of the music by reinterpreting, recording, and performing outside of the temples, and being one of the few women to sing them. Ali Riaz Baqar is a guitarist, bandleader, and chief composer of the group Jaubi. Based in Lahore, Pakistan, their debut album Nafs at Peace draws on elements of north Indian classical music, hip-hop and jazz. Gurujas Khalsa is a singer and songwriter from the Grammy-winning band White Sun, based in Los Angeles. Their music is a "sweeping exploration of New Age, through the lens of the Kundalini Yogic tradition", and their songs are also on the syllabus at the University of Southern California, where they are used to study stress management. And Abi Sampa is a multi-instrumentalist, veena virtuoso, and the UK's first female Qawwal. She first rose to prominence when she sang on TV show The Voice UK in 2013. Born in London to Sri Lankan Tamil refugees, she's now inspiring a new generation of British Asians with her music.

This episode is also available as a blog post: https://youarewithinthenorms.com/2020/12/26/how-dea-policies-affect-the-delivery-of-covid-19-vaccines-in-predominately-black-neighborhoods-throughout-america/ One pharmacist, who has chosen to remain anonymous stated, she had been in business near that same area for several years and her pharmacy only carried Tylenol #3 (medication combines with 30 mugs of codeine). However, when the State of Illinois Board of Regulation Inspector came to her establishment he questioned the pharmacy owner as to why she didn't carry Oxycontin? She explained to him the physicians, in the area don't write for that type of control narcotic. The inspector immediately demanded she begin ordering Oxycontin, which she then claimed sat on her shelf for months until the next time the same inspector returned; only to site her for having “excessive Oxycontin” in her store. The constant inspections and violations got so out of control they were able to undermine her Illinois Public Aid contract and she was forced to close down. Many Black Pharmacists will agree these occurrences are unlikely to happen to a non-white pharmacist. Practicing Pharmacy while black is real, and the results are the destruction of overall healthcare in our predominately black neighborhoods. We have been frequently reporting on the DEA using these and other types of systemic racist targeting and we have been demanding Congressional Oversight from the Sub-committee on Judiciary, Congressional Government Operations Committee, Sub-committee on Health and the Environment, the resulting warnings are being reported in our blog youarewithinthenorms.com. We demand Congressional hearings and media, exposing these injustices and how it affects our overall healthcare and the passing down of generational wealth (stratification economics). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/norman-j-clement/support

“I really thought, like, if people have the choice to choose what they pay, they're going to undervalue me, and I was so sure that everybody would pick the lower fees. I'm making more money than I've ever made!” ~ Celeste Meyer Celeste Meyer has created something folks on this planet need to see more examples of - a pretty yummy, juicy life for herself and those with whom she’s in alliance. From friends to clients to partners, this fat-bodied, South Asian queer woman has molded her professional and personal spaces into shapes that defy confinement. She rejects the rigidity of white supremacy’s boxes - and she’s doing very well outside of them, thankyouverymuch. Predominately centered on BIPOC, queer, trans, and fat clients, Celeste’s practice is where intersectionality - and the wounds so often heaped on top of those instances of confluence - is given its proper due. You’ll recognize the phrase liberation-focused therapy from previous episodes. At a macro level, it’s a framework that offers empowerment and healing in aid of communities most neglected by mainstream mental health services.  We even had time to unpack the healer and wounded healer questions - diving into issues of appropriation, the divine feminine, the seasonality of life, the Farmers Almanac (true story!). Celeste said it best: “I get to have cycles within me of blooming and conserving energy, being, you know, blossoming and ready to connect with all the plants around me - or being the one with one little leaf. I get to be all of them!” *** Celeste Meyer is a self-identified Brown Fat Femme who lives, loves, and works on unceded Muskoke/Creek territory known as Atlanta, Georgia. In her private practice, she predominantly sees BIPOC, queer, trans, and fat clients as they heal from trauma and focus on liberation through connection and somatic-based therapy.

My podcast portrays what it was like for me growing up on Mount Desert Island, and how it forced me to unintentionally other my valid human identity. It made me, quite frankly, scared to accept my biracial-ness. When on the island, I never felt white enough, and when at family reunions, I felt too white. It's taken almost 17 years for me to accept and give recognition to the intersectionality of growing up on a small predominantly white island, being a young woman, and being biracial. Through experiences I have recently had an abundance of time to dissect, I've become more comfortable with my identity and realized how this intersectionality has opened my eyes wider to the scope of systemic racism within our country. There is no arguing that Mount Desert Island lacks diversity, I used to see this as being horrible because I felt like I had to closet my biracial identity. I blame this on no specific person or interaction I had growing up, but rather a sequence of events. These events consist of comments on my last name that occurred more times than I can count on my hands; then, when I got older more specific stabs toward my race that was meant to be just a “joke” but made me subconsciously feel like I needed to hide my Chinese identity on the island. My defense was always “but I'm mostly white” every single time me being Asian was brought to the table. I now recognize that the lack of diversity fostered this need to be whitewashed inside me because compared to most - not all, but to the majority of this Island, I am not white. My choice to express my intersectionality through a podcast was fueled by my incapability to express my feelings in words. Throughout the past year, there have been a lot of times where I have tried to share why what someone is doing is hurting me, however, I have been unable to express these feelings as my responses always come out as complete word vomit. I am an internal sorter of my issues, meaning I spend a lot of time thinking about my experiences, but I am unable to talk about or dissect these experiences without becoming a complete emotional wreck. When this project came along, I thought there was no better time and place to push myself and share personal experiences that have reflected my intersectionality. There has been a weight lifted off my shoulder as for the first time in my 17 years of life I have told my truth without breaking into tears. Finally, I want to disclaim that my very small experiences with racism are not comparable to the racism other minorities, and fully chinese people face outside, and within our community on Mount Desert Island and the United States. I am here doing this because I am eager to shed light on the fact that MDI is not a safe haven from discrimination against, and silencing of People of Color. I am extremely privileged with the racial ambiguity that has given me a chance to live both lives as I have the privileges akin to white people, but I am not immune to being personally hurt by the racist jabs and slurs toward the Chinese American community.

Retired NHL Player #42 and Hockey Diversity Alliance (HDA) Co-Founder, Joel Ward II discusses life as a minority in a predominately white league (Ep. #1.6)Episode 1.6: Show Notes. With the rise of the black athlete over the past 50 years, we often see professional athletes of all races presented together as a great example of the progress and leaps we’ve made in diversity. On this week’s episode, we speak with NHL Veteran #42 and Hockey Diversity Alliance co-founder, Joel Ward II, and have a discussion about how everything might not be as racially idyllic as it seems. Joel discusses what it’s like to be a minority in the NHL, one of the few majority white man’s sports leagues in North America. Joel talks us through specific incidences of racism and prejudice he’s experienced from both the league, and sports fans around the country. It’s these oversights that led Joel to join with eight other hockey players and form the Hockey Diversity Alliance, an organization that has committed itself to increasing visibility of minority players, addressing concerns of racism within the NHL organization, and encouraging POC to become involved in hockey at all levels. Joel also gives general advice as to the steps allies can take in listening and understanding black people, as well as tangible actions that can foster real change within both Canada and the United States. Overlooked history is also addressed as to the black roots from which the game of hockey sprung from, as well as the importance of major black athletes in the fight for acceptance and equality. Tune in to hear more about Joel’s unique and inspiring journey, and how you can make a difference “both on and off the ice.”Key Points From This Episode: • Joel starts by talking about instances of racism in the NHL• The Hockey Diversity Alliance works to increase diversity in professional hockey• HDA is trying to get more POC on hockey team staffs and POC kids playing hockey• Unequal opportunities for Black hockey players like Joel compared to white majority• Willie O’Ree breaking down barriers as first black player in NHL• The hidden hockey history of the Black Hockey League the first league in North America• Joel tells a harrowing story about being pulled over by a cop and fearing for his life• Experiences of racism that white hockey teammates may not understand• Addressing the importance of white people educating themselves about racism• A story about subtle racism in Nashville, and the way allies should listen and believe others• Words and statements of meaning only go so far, action is what is truly important• The difference between racism in Canada and the USA is much less than what people think• The special connection Joel has with Jackie Robinson, and the number 42• Joel discusses his future in hockey possibly as a coach or trainerLinks Mentioned in Today’s Episode:Joel Ward IINational Hockey League (NHL)Hockey Diversity Alliance (HDA) -https://hockeydiversityalliance.orgAkim AliuWayne GretzkyUniversity of Prince Edward IslandFredericton, NBWillie O’Ree - 1st Black Hockey Player in the NHLHockey Hall of FameJackie Robinson #42Sports Hall of Fame in New BrunswickBlack Ice BookAfricville, Nova ScotiaBlack Hockey LeagueTommy SmithJohn Carlos1968 Olympics Statement from the Hockey Diversity Alliance on NHL’s response to racial injusti

My childhood friend Shalanee Joyner joins me this week on Leading With Your Gut. In this episode, Shalanee and I discuss what it was like growing up amongst mostly predominately White people. Shalanee is a 34-year old light-skinned Black woman who grew up feeling like a chameleon; blending in mostly with Whiteness or White culture because it was easier. I'm a biracial Black woman who grew up never feeling good enough in either White or Black communities, but like Shalanee assimilated to mostly Whiteness because it was easier.Shalanee and I share similar stories, experiences, and reflect upon the following:-recognizing when we became aware of our racial differences as kids -growing up in a predominately White neighborhood, going to White Schools, and having mostly White friends-discriminatory and racists remarks against us-privileges in favor and against us-the importance of this movement and our hope that it's not just a trend-how we can amplify our voice and our experiences-the importance of Black voices-how this is an issue of race, however until all marginalized groups are free, no one is freeThis Wednesday, June 10th, at 11am PST, I'll be hosting a free introductory class that will explore privilege. I ask that participants donate to one of the organizations listed in the Eventbrite details. In addition to hosting this free introductory class, I'll be teaching a four-part paid course in the coming weeks.

Indoor CoVid Transmission Predominately Via Surfaces Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/RzSesPsN54o   If you are in a room with a CoVid19 carrier, asymptomatic and unaware of their infection, you are more likely to contract the virus from surfaces than from the air.  Israeli biomathematicians draw this conclusion from theie mathematical models of viral transmission through the air versus surface-hand-face transfer.   Using real life data, the investigators estimate that 60-80% of virus is transmitted via direct contact, 20-40% is transmitted via indirect contact with contaminated surfaces, and less than 1% via the air.   This data predicts that the combination of frequent hand washing, avoiding direct physical contact, and periodic surface disinfection will reduce the risk of person-to-person viral transmission by 85%.   https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.12.20099085v1.full.pdf   #covid #pandemic #transmission #droplets #aerosols #fomites

Business is simple. Good product, cash in the bank, steady cash flow, growing sales and profit margins.Dr. Ian Birkby and Alex Cairns discuss the simplicity of running a business well.Welcome to another edition of the marketing science podcast the podcast for sales and marketing professionals working within science engineering and health care don't forget to subscribe on Spotify iTunes or wherever he usually listen to podcasts my name is Frank Barker the head of marketing at eight zero network where you can also subscribe and I'm joined by not just one but two guests this week with Dr Ian Birkby, the CEO of AZoNetwork and Alex cans MD of Move Marketing, a full service B2B. marketing agency.Thanks Gents for joining us doing today, so without further ado I'd like to jump straight into the first question and draw your experience of being in the notable position of pre dating the digital era but also having the experience of working right through the digital era to the present day and seeing how do you see the change in marketing strategy for SMEs?Well, despite the fact the indicating that my working career services in the era of horses and carts Frankie I will give you my the best position on thatIAN: I think the key thing in terms of how it's changed since ninety five when Netscape came out and the internet era started, is the ability to measure what you achieve with your marketing efforts. So in the digital age it is relatively easy to measure the impact of the various campaigns and from that to calculate the return on your marketing investment - now I'd counter that by saying we are possibly getting to the stage where some people like to measure too many things and starting to get lost a little bit in the numbers but for me it's the ability to quantify the performance of the campaigns.Franky: Okay excellent, Alex so you've you're in a full service B2B. marketing agency having worked with both client and agency side for lots of multi nationals, so you've got a real mix of experience Ho have you seen the transition.Alex: I'll echo a lot what Ian says, data on 2 aspects - because we use a lot of data for market analysis; market research in the planning phase as well so not just the campaign data which is invaluable but also the research phase for the data in terms of putting together marketing plans that give you a one to three to five years focus.The other big change since 2000 is that we now have channels so it's not just a service, supply through digital channels which we can actually pick and choose from a makes amounts according to requirement so there's a lot more to you and almost test as they say something.Franky: Okay and having worked with lots of different clients for your agency what's the biggest challenge, what's the most common or the greatest challenges that you see that your clients having from a marketing perspective.Alex: I think it is the data interpretation and insight because it is a fantastic thing having all of the data of but it's not a given to know how to use it and spin into an achievable set of objectives and actions so that's when we get involved.That depth of our experience and expertise in how to use and interpret that data across multiple channels but a lot of the science industrial sectors don't specialise in understanding data and certainly statistics is obviously not the course specialismsExcellent so Ian using data and statistics as marketing challenges would you echo that?Absolutely I think you know from our perspective as a as a business we've invested heavily in building an analytics platform over the last six or seven years and prior to that we would say to our clients we've driven several thousand visitors to your site - they'd say great thanks very much but they couldn't attribute those visitors to specific actions in terms of products sales and market sector activity so yes if you can use that data to genuinely prove R. O. I. it's a massive plus point.Franky: All the way from campaign original source campaign all the way to revenue generating opportunity yesIan: I mean as you well know we quite often gets into this discussion about you know was it the last touch that really made the difference and if you're on the sales side of life you probably gonna say it was your involvement that all was actually not firsts %HESITATION campaign that first email campaign that was marked his responsibility so yeah always an interesting debate that will Frankie's you well know.Franky: Let's not get stuck into aligning sales and marketing just yet the whole point just in itself.Fantastic all right so in which ways does B2C vary to B2B in specifically reaching scientists and engineers how have you found that is different.Alex: Today certainly there are a lot more the applications the market for a lot more nature a lot more difficult to pinpointIts really trying to appeal to the types of individuals and job titles that you've got within its scientific and industrial sectors so everything to enhance the credibility or proof that products or a service works as without the case studies white papers and anything this credibility building on that side is usually a better way to go and they stop and it's much more much more different approach and be to say where you can really just pick up on a sounder craze that's going on around them I'm going to campaign on the box about us a little bit less considered in a little bit less than actually less scientific.Ian: I think maybe just to add to that one from getting the other factories with the with database quite often the price points are significantly bigger on the sales side please significantly longer. So to a certain extent if you're in the business of content marketing you need to be writing content that satisfies all stages of the buyers journey. Whereas in B2C you know if you've got a ten pound product you can put a note out on Instagram and you could probably sell it the same day where is but a lot of our customers the sales cycle can be six to nine months more involved.Okay so on that what is the longest sales cycle, the longest time you have seen a sale from initial point to close.If I go back to most manufacturing days when I was involved in the business of manufacturing ceramics we could be talking to a client for nine months before you get specifications correct, you have done some testing - for a lot of our clients if you are selling a million dollars with the kit you know a year's worth of discussion is not unusual.Franky: We ran a survey where fifty one percent of the managers said they had a sales cycle between three to twelve months and there's very few who have got less than three months and considerably more than that have got more than twelve months - you find the same Alex?Franky: It definitely makes everything from forecasting, business planning, cash flow makes lots of stuff much more difficult with long sales cycles.What are the key questions that SME science or engineering company should be asking when it comes to strategic planning, Alex?We typically take a five step approach in terms of how we walk a client through the planning process. So always starting with what they're actually trying to achieve in the first place that's most fundamental thing involved. Then taking a look at a market analysis researching what's actually going on in the market, understanding competitors, what their position statements are and the marketing techniques they use and how tat stacks up openly in the marketplace and figuring out value proposition a message sounds like an obvious one. You'd be surprised how many twenty thirty forty million pound plus turnover companies that I walked into the really have not got that value proposition or a couple key phrases. Then the fifth one is a little bit more involved obviously so it's really pulling a lot together through the available channels and budget and timescales and also setting smart objectives to sit alongside all of that.I know you've done some great work helping us with our own strategic planning as well so thank you So, next question: How has the internet levelled the playing field for David versus Goliath over the last twenty years?Ian: I got into this game with AZoNetwork in early two thousand and it was very different then.On the internet, you've got the same amount of screen space as a billion dollar market cap company. So one of the phrases adopted fairly early on was that it doesn't matter where you are found on the internet, it just matters that you are found - it became much easier as a small business to make a significant impact via the web than previously.It has passed over from kind of publisher to client, that end user, the company the manufacture. It's really just the expanse of channels but also the time that it takes to execute campaigns in the market - so twenty years ago it could have taken three to six months writing, planning a campaign which could be done in a morning these days.Franky: Do you have any benchmarks for how an SME science engineering company would define a marketing budget?Alex: There are standard industry benchmarks out there in terms of percentage of turnover that kind of thing but we typically shy away from not more the fundamentals of individual revenue lines for the company, profit lines, profit margins for products and what the channels available with us we try to make it more small bespoke.You can't really tell you when you call us at five or ten million pounds and over estimate engineering companies don't just tell you to nominal five or ten percent turnover inside dies the amount to spend %HESITATION marks in.It doesn't really fit for every every single every single kind so we tend to look at the big picture okay the competitive so they're up again so for example we go offline and we're just tossing starts with recently that they chose to compete against and two major multinational blue chips now it's not gonna be feasible to put in the same kind of purchases they will so looking on the much more Avenue case by case basis across four to five channels now we can actually get towards a level playing field among the big stuff in a level playing field against close it's become really be small about the white invest stocked up with Joe's wells announcing.Atlassian, when they started, I think for the first of six to eight years and they didn't really have a marketing budget for their product which was a collaboration tool for software developers.Predominately it was a low price point thirty dollars which sold by word of mouth in the in the development community so they had a very low sales and marketing budget.On the other hand, you've got outfits like uber for example with very big marketing budgets who are effectively buying business - how long can they continue to do that? It's an interesting business case study - So I think it really comes down to what is your products and what are you trying to achieve?What do you find is the appetite for risk in in marketing specifically from the sort of C. suite and how have people get being given license to try things?It's low to be brutally honest, when I was client side running very big blue chip budgets for some big international companies it was still quite low even ten fifteen years ago as wellThat's why strategic planning is so important from my perspective it gives some validation that the C Suite board of directors can actually sign off on. When you cn see the analysis and the data for will give us an investment for the opposite ways process without any kind of analysis or just kind of an off the cuff approach they're not going to really stop those kind of budgets – overall a low outside for absolute risk in these sectorsFranky: Do you see lots of companies using the data to justify the marketing spend or is it still a bit more gut feeling?I think it's becoming increasingly data focused - you still see some dumb comments that come out like a why are you going to this particular exhibition, well because our competitors are there. It doesn't really justify that activity. We're in an age where at least the Google Adwords has worked as part of the marketing spending on Google. I'd be a fool to sit here and say it doesn't work, it obviously does.However one of the things that we see with people setting up Adwords campaigns is that we did it eighteen months ago and it was Jack who's in the I. T. department… they just set and forget. They don't even realize that they're actually now wasting fifty percent of the budget on keywords which aren't delivering for them. So I think there's a there's a lot of slack in the marketing activity but businesses really need to recognize that the marketing is a value creator not a cost center and that's the sort of the old fashioned thinking that we need to move away from.Franky: Which specific KPIs would you use in a business context what's important to you for a marketing standpoint?I'm gonna focus on the business KPIs and say well you know what other business KPIs and then how does marketing fit into that so again I think when you're running a lot of business need a building a business and keep it as simple as possible you know when businesses start to go wrong is when people start to over complicate things so:Make sure you got a product that people want to buy. Make sure you've got enough cash in the bank to facilitate the activity and we are big fans of using a balanced scorecard approach so you can actually see you know the financial performance is going; everybody in the business has visibility on how much cash we have in the bank now, how much do we think we gonna have in six months.What is it costing us to acquire a customer etc. that sort of data. So you get everybody involved and obviously marketing feeds into this in terms of how many customers do we currently have? How are we growing those customers. What's the churn rate on those customers so for me it starts with the top down approach of business first and how does marketing fit into the economics.Any marketing specific KPIs that you'd be encouraging your clients to measure?Really it's fifty-fifty half is related to sales or profit, or sales of a certain product line. And then the other fifty percent is the raw marketing KPIs - so we'll typically have a list of say six to ten channels that we will work on for clients and so be different for every one of those.For something like a trade show for example it would simply be quite a high cost in terms of conversion of that lead into a sale compared to an email or webinar or even social media - so they're definitely very different ends of the spectrum and affects how we how we pitch those KPIs for themFranky: We use lots of different software in our martech stack what piece of software could you not live withoutfor me it would be the AZoIntel analytics platform that we built and developed over the last six or seven years. We also have built our content management system, email distribution and the whole platform that we now exist upon which is our own IP these are pieces of software that we couldn't really do without and within that, I think the ability to see who was engaging with our content, that content journey and how they're engaging with that content – that has been the bedrock of the growth of our business.so over that period of time I think all of the other aspects you know sequel server and you know the the adobe suite that you may use you can pretty much replace those with all the solutions so it's a very personal answer and I apologize for the immediate commercial plug on thatI think you're excused, for me personally it's about how the software interacts with each other. Because we are with small marketing departments as soon as you can automate certain tasks: your lead scoring for instance and lead distribution out to the sales team, it just frees up your morning.Rather than to get in and then this bottleneck of admin that needs doing. Having grown up using Salesforce and we've managed to get AZoIntel talking directly to Salesforce, we can just forget about it. I know that it happens on a fifteen minute sync, so it can happen when I'm asleep it can happen at a trade show, it's happening right now which is huge!Ian: One of the key points right here right now is going to be the use of AI in marketing. The ability to have automated transcription of meetings. The ability to work out you know which key words and phrases you should be using in content and how they're going to have the greatest impact.I was recently at the inbound show over in Boston and marketing technology and A. I. is starting to have a serious impact - It's going to have the most impact where it can automate fairly mundane, routine tasks. It has taken us several years to get to the stage where we start to get reasonable value out of Salesforce but it's because we managed to automate a lot of those manual activities.Franky: Absolutely, so what's your biggest challenge as a leader and what's are the biggest issues that you come up against in running a business?Ian: So to start on that one I think for me it's always been about getting the culture right getting the team working right - you could have one of the world's greatest products but if you've got a toxic culture within the business it's going to blow up at some stage.So you have to have a goal in life, you have to have the vision, you have to know where you going how are you going to get there and then your job is to explain that to people in simple terms. Illustrate what success is gonna look like, how they play a part in the team that's going to enable you to get that and just keep it simple. Trust is a big factor you know which plays into that team working…Staying true to your visionTrue to the vision - you know that's Simon Sinek analogy of leaders eat last, the days of the Victorian mill owners are well gone. I think the role of a leader in businesses is more of a facilitator. As I come to work, I want people to tell me what I can do to make them more productive at their jobs.Alex?Alex: It's a fast changing industry right now I mentioned that chart with the 7 thousand tech stack businesses on.You've got a very fast paced sector in terms of the different channels within it and the different approaches that you can take.It's really about the pace of change in the data that's available and not getting completely bombarded and washed over by that data but actually finding techniques and methodologies to do that as a team of marketers. It is about building a culture where you've got thinkers who can come up with the answers for both yourselves and the clients really.Franky: If you could give yourself one piece of marketing advice about me way back when in in twenty years ago when you're just starting out with a song when you're starting out with with my marketing or debateAlex: Don't believe the hype. Build the hype.Ian: If I could go back… I came out of the manufacturing industry background and on the back of that, I saw the internet could be really good for educating engineers, designers and scientists.So I thought to myself, I'll go into a totally new career which is a building websites. At the time I knew nothing about building websites and I was led by the nose by a team of developers and spent six figures on building a website that looked really pretty and was really interesting, but search engines were never going to find it so I wish I'd known about search engines back then and how significant they were so I would have definitely saved a few hundred grand by knowing that!all right fascinating.Well that ties in superbly with next week's subject matter where we'll be finding out how companies are adapting their paid search strategy in the current climate.Thank you both gentlemen for contributing today.Don't forget to subscribe in the usual places or at AZoNetwork.com we'll see you next week for a brand new edition of the marketing science podcast with Matt Rafferty the head of Paid Search here at AZoNetwork – We'll see you then See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week, Rob Dietrich joins Pedro to talk about his new job as Master Blender of Metallica's American whiskey, Blackened. Rob took over the position after the original Master Blender, Dave Pickerell, was taken from this Earth far too soon; but no more tears! This is literally the most Rock that whiskey has ever experienced! Every cask is "sonically-enhanced" with a special playlist of Metallica's music put together by the individual band members (which you can hear below.) Be sure to listen to this one loud!--What we drank:Blackened American Whiskey--Follow us:spiritguidesocietypodcast.comfacebook.com/spiritguidesoctwitter.com/spiritguidesocinstagram.com/spiritguidesochttps://www.youtube.com/c/SpiritGuideSociety--Playlist:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0QFzOTpWkrYgYYdPkRIsX9?si=61etidmXQQ2uT7cu_GnX7g--Metallica's Press Release About Rob:Meet our New Master Distiller, Rob DietrichJun 26, 2019We're excited to announce the next step in our journey with Blackened American Whiskey as we welcome Rob Dietrich to the family as our new Master Distiller. A veteran in the spirits and music industry, Rob's passion and experience make him the perfect person to oversee the sourcing, blending, and cask finishing of barrels for each batch of Blackened.Rob initially learned the art and science of distilling from expert distiller, Jess Graber. He earned his distilling stripes throughout more than 12 years in the industry and whiskey lovers took notice of his limited-release, cask finish expressions such as Snowflake, Sherry Cask, and more. In addition to an extensive distilling background, Rob spent a decade in the music business honing his passion with Bill Graham Presents, as a freelance agent for a variety of venues like Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre and The Fillmore in San Francisco, as well as managing tours and festivals. He is a veteran of the U.S. Army's 10th Mountain Division and served from 1992 to 1995. His two combat tours in Somalia and relief operations in Haiti helped shape his life-affirming philosophy.Rob will continue to build upon the foundation set forth by his predecessor Dave Pickerell, who we sadly lost last fall. Known as the world's preeminent distiller, Dave brought his vision and creativity to Blackened to offer a premier whiskey enhanced by our music. Rob will continue to honor his spirit while bringing his own talents and skills to the role, working closely with us to keep Dave's legacy alive.Dave will forever be a member of our family and we miss him tremendously. As we have gotten to know Rob more closely, his values, knowledge, and love for what he does are also apparent, and he shares great respect for craftsmanship that we have for Blackened and our music. We're thrilled that he's joined the party!https://www.metallica.com/news/2019-06-04-meet-our-new-master-distiller-rob-dietrich.html--From Blackened's Website: blackenedwhiskey.comA COLLABORATION OF BOURBONS, RYES & WHISKEYSBLACKENED is a marriage of the finest bourbons, ryes & whiskeys, hand selected by Dave himself. Each of the whiskeys offer unique flavor that play a key role in the final spirit. Predominately bourbon, the sweetness of BLACKENED pairs perfectly with the savory spice offered by the high rye composition of 46%.THE FINISHDave is renown for his whiskey finishes—an aspect he calls “flavoring for adults”. By resting the whiskey in the barrel of another spirit during the maturation phase, the whiskey picks up some of the unique, residual flavors left behind in the barrel. For BLACKENED, Dave chose to finish the whiskey in black brandy casks. The result is an added apricot note that plays perfectly alongside the honey and caramel tones of the pre-finished spirit.THE AWAKENINGAfter the whiskeys have been combined in the black brandy casks for finishing, they're jolted back to life by the unmistakable, earth-shattering music of Metallica. Using our proprietary sonic-enhancement system BLACK NOISE™, the whiskey is pummeled by sound, causing it to seep deeper into the barrel, where it picks up additional wood flavor characteristics.THE EXPERIENCEThe process the whiskey undergoes is intense; the flavor is anything but. The spirit has a warm, honey-amber color. Burnt caramel, oak and honey are present on the nose, with moderate hints of spice upon first taste. The flavor builds with notes of honey, cinnamon, allspice, clove and mint, with unexpected apricot lingering underneath. Expect a long and smooth finish with slightly creamy hints of butterscotch taffy, maple and honey.FORGED BY SOUNDEach batch of BLACKENED has a unique playlist that was used to sonically-enhance the whiskey during finishing. As the well-aged whiskey rests in the finishing barrels, the music is played to the barrel causing the whiskey inside to move and interact with the wood. The movement of the whiskey and the amount of interaction depends on the song being played, so the variation of the music creates a slight nuance from one batch to the next. Throughout this process, Dave tests the whiskey to determine the optimal color and flavor profile for each batch.--Music by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Semester Sneak Peek is a new series that provides a preview of courses available at Tulsa Community College (TCC) this coming fall semester.  As a series about upcoming classes, these episodes will feature interviews with many of the instructors tasked with teaching them.  Today's episode features Dr. Gay Phillips, Associate Professor at TCC.   Edited by Sam Levrault Music by The Odyssey, "75 to Ramona" Transcript: Bethany Solomon     Bethany: Welcome to Semester Sneak peak, a new series that highlights instructors that are tasked with teaching fall courses. We thought it would be best to highlight these courses to educate students!  I am your host, Bethany Solomon, associate editor of the Northeast campus and today we have a special guest, Gay Phillips, who is teaching several interesting courses this upcoming semester. It is a pleasure to have you Ms. Phillips!  Tell us about yourself. You may start with your childhood or educational experiences.  Gay Phillips: Thank you!   I grew up in west Texas, in the oil fields with my father. We traveled a lot. And that peaked my interest, traveling through the nation and getting to know different areas and different people. I was always interested in how we are similar as people, and how we are different. How culture gets created and shared. How we influence cultural changes, and why us humans do what we do. Those combined helped me fall in love with sociology. That is my primary discipline.  We got to Oklahoma and it felt like we moved to a foreign country and looking back I know that is not the case, but when I was 10 years old that is what it felt like.  B: [Laughs…]  G: And we stayed in Oklahoma ever since.  B: Very nice! I can see how that is the underlying inspiration for sociology and how it relates to even anthropology. Did you go from finding inspiration to sociology into finding interest in anthropology? Was that a later discovery?  G: While I was studying sociology in my undergrad I had options of taking anthropology courses along with sociology, a lot on native studies and indigenous population. It extends what we study about culture a little bit into the anthropological theme  B: Interesting! Let’s go to into your experiences prior to TCC as far as being in the workforce.   G: Sure. After I completed my bachelor’s degree I went to work in social services. I thought I wanted to be a social worker, and discovered I was not adept to doing that. I worried about people too much. After working for five years in social services I made a change. I went into professional development for people who work in social services. Predominately, people who work with homeless youth who have been abused and neglected.   That was the field I was in. I knew people and knew what the ongoing training needs were, so professional development 20/25 years doing lots of training workshops and all kinds of topics and how to deal with kids that live on the streets.   How to teach people how to be trauma informed. Kids and families that go through trauma. We did hundreds of training workshops, and so that is what I did. While I was doing that I went back and got my master’s degree. I knew I did not want another direct service degree, so I continued with sociology to work with people in social structures and cultures. So, I did that and after several years I decided I really wanted to teach at the college university level. I went back and got my PHD and became a private consultant doing training, workshops, and program development.  I had done quite a bit of programs for a lot of different organizations. I went back and got my PHD. I started as an adjunct. I was an adjunct at Rogers State, OSU, and now TCC. I have been involved with TCC since 2000, and a full-time position came open by 2012.  B: Wow, quite the experience. With TCC specifically, I know you mentioned trauma evaluation, that is something currently being developed here at TCC. Mental Health Awareness and how trauma effects people even in the realm of education, how it effects the individual’s rate of success, and their ability to learn. To me it is fascinating and I recently interviewed Shatia Stephens, she coordinates mental health awareness plans. I know it is not necessarily understood by many, and people don’t often see its effect.   In these specific programs, have you been able to reach out to individuals and help them understand the importance?  G: In many of my courses I try to talk about how human development is something we do over our lifespan and then talk about the consequences when you don’t have basic needs met like attachment bonding, and or you experience some sort of life trauma, which almost everybody does.  B: Right.  G: If you don’t have those foundational bases of attachment of being in a secure environment it is much harder to deal with those traumas. You might not have that basic support system.   I try to give basic education in all my classes about human development and what we need as humans. And then I talk of introducing ideas with trauma which helps to explain some of the crime rates we have, the homelessness we have, it connects to so many topics I teach in sociology and those fields.   B: How has that experience been for you? What has that taught you about students. Their willingness or unwillingness to address problems that they may not really understanding to how it correlates with their own success.  G: Two or three things. One, I hope they feel like ok, somebody cares. And that gets to as much for me not only what I teach but how I teach. Because I want to be respectful, where they are, what they are living with. I was a student at many different points in my life. I understand some of those struggles but not all of it. I was not raising two or three kids at the same time I was in school, but I try to make a connection to help them feel like somebody does care, I think that is critically important. I try to respect where they are at the time, not everybody is ready to seek assistance or know how to do that. If they want help I will make a phone call or give them somebody’s card and say “tell them I said I want to talk to you.” Some students feel a little bit of relief of ‘ok somebody is trying to understand my situation and seems to care’ that does not change their situation. A lot of it That is up to them to seek support, I just try to encourage and be there to help them wherever they are and with what they want to do.  I also talk then about what resources students here at TCC, and in fact just yesterday was organizing materials I have about student assistance programs we have.   I try to bring those in to my class about what is available. I encourage them, that if they need any kind of connection, if they are struggling not just academically, emotionally or supporting their family to make contact. So, I try to get to that and some of the issues people are dealing with and then help them make connections.   And I also talk then, about connections outside of TCC. I do some service learning in some of my courses and we go visit places. I take my classes to family safety centers that deal with domestic abuse. Not just couples, but anyone with family who have experienced some sort of violence or abuse can go to family safety centers, we tour that.   I talk a lot about the community resources in Tulsa, we have great community services here.  I also try to respect where they are at the time. Not everyone is ready to seek assistance. If they want help I will give them someone’s card and tell them to say, “I talked to them.” Most students experiencing this find relief and see that someone seems to care but that in of itself does not change their situation. It is up to them. I try to encourage and help them where they are.  B: Very good. Would you say this is something you implement in all your courses regardless?  G: Pretty much. Even on my online classes, because I have students who communicate through email. And I have done referrals for students. Something happens during the semester for three or two students. I try to be empathetic and help them out with referrals.   B: That is good! You are essentially practicing what you teach and bringing to students’ awareness, human development. That seems like that is the core connection between all your courses.  G: Yes. I tell my students in all my classes that we are pack animals. It is kind of an odd way to say it. Because of those social connections, we need each other.  What we do to each other, how we communicate, how we understand each other, all those things matter.  B: That is a very good point. That brings up a very interesting questions involving your course Interdisciplinary Diversity & Inclusion, how have you found the differences that people may have on the surface, be it socioeconomic status, culture, ethnicity, or anything that divides people and causes them to communicate in different ways. How does that prevent people from running in packs?  G: It really is a matter of expanding our packs. There are basic components all cultures share. Every culture has a family, who is included in that family, how the family dynamic is lived out can be very different, but everyone has got one. We have a family of origin. I try to teach what is common amongst us as humans. We all have family and need to feel connected. We all need to have a predictable world and sense of safety. I try to teach all those common elements.  Once you dive deeper into what people are doing and why they are doing it, usually you can find the common ground. And secondly a lot of how people live it out becomes less important.  B: Very good. Taking these courses, I can see how important it is to seek to understanding people versus just focusing on our differences.   So, with the four courses you teach: Anthropology, Sociology, Marriage and family, and finally, Diversity and Inclusion, which is a new course by the way...  G: Yes, it has been revised!  B: So can you explain the revision?  G: Social Inequalities historically has been a discipline of sociology. The focus is a lot on studying race, ethnicity, gender and class. In our global society, in our broader human world, we need to look beyond just social inequalities. There are a lot of aspects in those four. Issues of people living with disabilities, intergenerational issues, that is a big one today. We always here older people disgruntle about younger people and what they do but we have our version of it today.  So change one is to expand the topic.  The second, to talk about inclusion and talk about cultural competency. How do you become a culturally competent person and why is that important? The primary reason is employers really want people to deal with diverse population. That is their number one issue, what is important in an employee. If you are not comfortable as an employee dealing with diverse populations, you are not going to make it as far. So, learning to do that and getting comfortable to talking to people who talk different, act different, and look different from you is important. You got to be able to understand beyond surface explanation, and beyond what you don’t like. To understand why there may be a dislike, is it a core issue that is important to you that may shape.  Getting comfortable with diverse populations, whether it is families, cities, or school.  This course is looking at very interactive and experimental in terms of talking and discussing and going to visit places. We have lots of organization with social justice issues. We will hear from people who are doing the work.   Overall, just looking at what kind of skills and attitudes you need to develop to be more culturally competent.  B: With social inequalities did you have students challenge your perspective or challenge new ideas or inputs that surprised you or caused you to see something in a different way?  G: Sure. In all my classes. I have had students challenge me as to people’s abilities to change their views. Particularly in changing their bigotries. Really wondering if our institutionalisms, such as ageism, or racism can really be changed or made better. I have seen people with extreme bigotry change, so I believe in people being able and willing. It does not always happen, but it is possible. Getting some students to believe that change can occur for the better is sometimes a challenge.   They key in all my courses is helping students have a voice.   I have values and I can express those hopefully, in a way that is not offensive to other people. Now there are some things that are inevitable. I want us to be able to know where we stand and do it respectfully. And, where does that come from a person? Every value and belief come from somewhere. There is a basis as to where that came from.   It comes down to the human components for need for safety, take care of your own, those common things we have in common.  I may not like uncle Joe’s viewpoint on something, but I can understand where it came from and why he is attached to it. And sometimes it makes it better for me.  B: Exactly. It gives you a sense of compassion. From my perspective that would help, I try to understand the origin of others believe what they believe and when you do it is easier to forgive or to deal with it. It is   G: Right! Not to simply see them as their bigotry and just see the humanness in that person.  B: Yes! That is powerful. Have you seen your students walk away different in your class, or their ability to see potential? To me, this is relevant to life and the key component of success, which is relationships.  G: Because we’re pack animals!  B: Exactly. We can’t survive on our own. Specifically, with you can say, the younger generation, Millennials or with what they would call Generation Z, do you find technology changing the way we relate with one another, do you find that they are less likely to know how to develop relationships? It is a common stigma.   G: It presents different challenges. We have had other things that have gotten in our way and those relationships. Whether it be have to spend our time just surviving, therefor the quality of my relationships is not as deep or emotional as we expect today.  Today we have tech, they are great. I love technology and how we use it! If it is impacting us negatively I am not sure, I am ready to answer that. I the top of somebody’s head in my classroom. To be honest about it.  B: [Laughs…]  G: What it tells me is I must get better at how to connect, maybe send that person a message. There is always going to be something that gets in the way of relationships. We just need to figure out how to communicate and break those barriers. I am not someone that does not like Gen Z or Millennials. I love you guys!  B: Good to hear! [Laughs…]   G: You’re fun, you’re creative and you’re aware of the world around you in ways my generation was not. I think it is just a matter of figuring out how to navigate it all, for all of us.  B: How to adapt!  G: Exactly. How to adapt. It’s a new adaptation.  B: Okay. As far as classrooms, what are your classroom expectations? How do you handle assignments? Are they consistent?  G: Close to it, I teach online and on-campus classes. For instance, in the fall I am teaching introduction to sociology, marriage and family, and cultural anthropology all online. They are 8 weeks and fast paced. I set up assignments weekly. The longer ones are every other week. I always have some form of reading or textbook. Usually a quiz over 1 or 2 chapters and they are usually analysis papers, a topic issues related to one of these courses. Papers are usually 2-5 pages.   On campus I teach intro to sociology, at west and in the fall and metro, during the spring. Diversity of Inclusion is on campus as well. I like block courses that are a little bit longer. If I need to cover 50 minutes topics, I want 3 hours. Or if we are going to do a field trip, so I like those longer courses. I teach aging and dying, and social problems. Assignments are all typical. As far as quizzes and analysis papers.   B: What are the best ways to contact you?  G: It would be email which is gay.phillips@tulsacc.edu and my phone number is (918) 595-8842. My office is located at Metro Campus, Academic building in room 514.   B: And your typical hours?  G: I am usually here like, 11pm-2pm ( 3pm), Monday-Thursdays, for sure. I am willing to set up appointments when it is convenient. If I need to meet at West I will.   B: Alright! We have covered a lot of information. Thank you for joining us on our show.  G: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to talk about sociology and my other courses!  B: Of course! It is exciting and innovative stuff. I believe the foundational lesson we can all learn is how important it is to understand human development.   G: Thank you so much.  B: No problem, Gay we wish you an incredible semester!
