Kim Bohr sits down with Timothy Swords, a mindfulness-focused executive coach who blends Harvard MBA-level acumen with over 2,000 hours of mindfulness practice. Timothy reveals how simple grounding techniques transformed executives from being the "scary person in the room" to creating harmonious relationships.This conversation explores why self-awareness might be more valuable than an MBA, how stress contagion undermines organizational performance, and why working beyond 50 hours delivers diminishing returns. Timothy shares practical "mindfulness hacks," including a grounding technique for meetings, plus how 10 minutes of practice increases self-awareness by 35%.Whether you're struggling with digital overwhelm, managing stressed teams, or seeking authentic leadership approaches, discover how mindfulness becomes a competitive advantage. Learn why emotions last 30 seconds unless we feed them with thoughts. To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:Mindfulness is "lucid awareness from paying attention on purpose in the present moment"A leader's emotional state directly impacts team performance through stress contagionWorking beyond 50 hours shows diminishing returns; 70-hour weeks produce no more than 55-hour weeksSimple grounding technique: Feel your feet on the floor during meetings to interrupt anxiety cyclesJust 10 minutes of daily mindfulness practice increases self-awareness by 35% in 6-8 weeksAuthentic leadership starts with clarity on personal values aligned with organizational valuesTwo types of self-compassion: tender (being kind) and fierce (setting healthy boundaries) "An emotion on its own lasts like 30 seconds. But if you're feeding it with thoughts, it goes on and on—it gets worse and worse. If you want to do anger management, you've got to stop that cycle, because you're actually creating your own anger." — Timothy SwordsAbout Timothy Swords: Timothy Swords blends corporate acumen with mindfulness training to guide senior leaders in integrating mindfulness into decision-making and leadership effectiveness.

摘要 一， 5月中旬，川普開啓了他的中東之行， 在此次為期3天的訪問中，川普訪問了沙烏地阿拉伯、卡達和阿拉伯聯合大公國，重點是與這三個位於世界上最富有國家之列的國家達成經濟協議。 事實上，今年2月，阿拉伯聯合大公國最大銀行阿布扎比第一銀行發佈了2025年全球投資展望報告《塑造投資未來：人工智慧與利率環境》。該報告就提到得益於戰略投資、經濟多元化以及非石油產業的穩健擴張，預計2025年海灣地區國家經濟增速將超過全球平均水平，GDP增速將從2024年的2.1%提升至4.2%。其中人工智慧和再生能源等行業正給海灣國家創造巨大的增長機遇。 PwC的最新報告也顯示，到2030年，AI產業在阿拉伯聯合大公國GDP的佔比預計將達到13.6%，沙烏地阿拉伯則為12.4%。巴林、科威特、阿曼和卡達四國的AI產業到2030年預計將為其GDP貢獻459億美元，佔四國GDP總和的8.2%。 海灣地區確實積極，但有沒有挑戰？我們應該怎麼解讀？ 二， 5月26日，我們看見波蘭與其他歐洲8國呼籲改革「歐洲人權公約」，指控現行制度限制各國遏止非法移民的能力、威脅國家安全與公共秩序。歐洲理事會秘書長布里奇（Marija PejčinovićBurić）警告，不要削弱這份公約，並讓公約成 為政治化操弄，一下子不知道這個事情所為何來？ 到了6月3日，我們看見波蘭總統選舉，右翼民粹主義候選人以50.89%的微弱優勢擊敗了自由派候選人，又一個歐洲國家淪入民粹主義者手中。事實上，最近這段時間里，右翼與極右翼政黨接連在歐洲的選舉政治中取得勝利。5月，僅成立6年的葡萄牙極右翼政黨在議會選舉中獲得了第二多的席位。2月；德國選擇黨（AfD）在德國聯邦選舉中獲得第二名；去年9月，奧地利右翼民粹主義政黨自由黨也在議會選舉中獲得約29%的選票。這些選舉越來越像是西方民主制度中建制派和類似MAGA運動的攪局者之間的對決。 更重要的是，6月7日，洛杉磯因試圖逮捕非法移民而引發暴力抗議。川普決定派遣國民警衛隊（由美國海軍陸戰隊支持）進駐該市，以支援移民官員，造就了洛杉磯的暴亂，大家終於明白，所謂的人權保障確實遭遇了威脅。我們應該怎麼看待所謂的「歐洲人權公約」改革？ Powered by Firstory Hosting

Doug McHoney (PwC's International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Pat Brown, an International Tax Partner and Co-Leader of PwC's Washington National Tax Services practice. Pat previously served as the US Treasury's Deputy International Tax Counsel and has been a frequent guest on the podcast. Doug and Pat discuss the legislative and international tax implications of the 'One Big Beautiful Bill', including its procedural path through US Congress under budget reconciliation, and its implications for both domestic and cross-border taxpayers. They explore the bill's temporary business provisions, including TCJA 'orphan' fixes, and the evolving treatment of research expenses, bonus depreciation, and interest deductions. A major focus is Section 899—dubbed the 'super BEAT'—which targets foreign digital services taxes (DSTs), diverted profits taxes (DPTs), and Pillar Two's undertaxed profits rule (UTPR) with steep retaliatory measures. They also analyze the international negotiations around UTPR exemptions, the impact on treaty obligations, and the ongoing debate over treatment of US tax credits—particularly the R&D credit—under global minimum tax rules.

Does your organisation struggle to retain high-potential female talent without knowing why? Today I am looking at 5 key reasons organisations struggle to retain key female talent mid-career. We are discussing:Culture, inclusion and belongingTransparency  - this is a biggie!Active sponsorshipLeadership developmentLet's be really honest about the barriers women are facing on a day-to-day basis and start taking measurable action towards creating more enriching careers for women.Something I said today:"Women must be made aware when internal roles are opening up for application. Too often they are not made equally aware of potential opportunities and so can't apply. This has a compound impact: not only do they not even have the opportunity to present themselves as a potential candidate, their exclusion can lead to them doubting the support they have in the organisation which can then also diminish their confidence and sense of belonging further."

The building industry in Australia 2025 is still feeling the ripple effects of COVID, supply chain chaos, and builder collapses, and we wanted to know what it actually looks like to survive all that. So we brought in Brad Duggan, CEO of Metricon, to pull back the curtain on what went wrong, what they got right, and what others need to understand if they’re going to build homes (and stay afloat) in this market. Brad doesn’t hold back. He talks about the grind; the fixed-price contracts, the cost blowouts, the tough calls they had to make just to finish the work they promised. We got into what shifted for buyers too: smaller homes, simpler choices, and a stronger demand for turnkey builds. There’s a reason Metricon pivoted in that direction, and it’s not just about profit, it’s about stability. We also talked through some of the bigger picture issues shaping the building industry in Australia 2025. Delays in planning, lack of trades, materials tied up in tunnels and infrastructure jobs, councils dragging their feet. Brad’s got strong views on all of it, and some practical thoughts on what actually needs to change. If you’re buying, building, or even just trying to wrap your head around the future of housing in Australia, this chat cuts through the noise. So let's dive in and get started. Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 01:11 - Who is Brad Duggan? 01:33 - How bad has it really been for builders in the last few years? 04:14 - The toughest truths Brad had to face in stepping in as CEO 05:56 - How much building capacity did the industry lose due to insolvencies? 07:26 - If builders went under, why is there still a skilled labor shortage? 09:05 - What’s driving the increase in home building costs today? 11:45 - How much of the 50% cost increase is due to materials vs labour? 14:48 - Is outsourcing builds to China a practical solution to supply shortages? 16:05 - What makes modular construction so expensive and hard to scale? 18:29 - Are Australians too picky about customisation for mass-market housing to work? 20:31 - Why aren’t apartments a good entry point for young buyers? 21:21 - What types of builds make up Metricon’s current portfolio? 22:41 - What are the cost and risk differences between custom builds and volume builders? 25:19 - The risk of cookie-cutter suburbs in affordable housing 29:38 - Has construction productivity actually improved in Australia or not? 32:43 - Should buyers focus more on land content for better capital growth? 36:38 - Have all affected customers from collapsed builders been helped? 37:45 - What role should regulators play in builder accountability? 39:05 - Are investors finally returning to the market? 40:07 - What’s wrong with how some investment properties are sold? 47:14 - Does protecting the ‘neighbourhood feel’ stall progress? 51:39 - Brad Duggan’s property dumbo About Our Guest: Brad Duggan is the Chief Executive Officer of Metricon, Australia’s largest home builder.

Even if you think your communication is clear, it still might not be understood in the way you intend. And if you want to influence others, you need first to seek understanding and engagement before you persuade."

Tim Bodner, real estate deals leader at PwC, joined the latest episode of Nareit's REIT Report to discuss what today's uncertain market environment means for investment patterns and transaction activity.Bodner described transaction activity across a range of real estate sectors, including office, hospitality, senior housing, data centers, and energy infrastructure, as “fairly robust.” He stressed that the real estate sector is used to operating in periods of uncertainty and cyclical change, while noting that REITs are focusing on what they can control and are “in a good place at this stage, given everything that's going on.”He also pointed out that there's a lot of activity around figuring out what's the right scale to have to operate in this new environment, “which likely will lead to more public to public and public to private transaction activity in the REIT space.”

A mais recente CEO Survey da PwC traz um retrato do que os líderes de empresas no Brasil estão pensando sobre Inteligência Artificial. O estudo mostra que, embora a maioria dos CEOs veja a IA generativa como essencial para a sobrevivência dos negócios, ainda há uma distância grande entre as expectativas e os resultados concretos. No episódio de hoje do Podcast Canaltech, conversamos com Luis Ruivo, especialista em transformação digital da PwC, que detalha os principais achados da pesquisa. Conheça os riscos que preocupam os executivos, como segurança de dados e vieses algorítmicos, os gargalos que ainda freiam o avanço da IA no Brasil e os setores que já começam a colher ganhos reais com a tecnologia. O papo ainda traz uma visão sobre o que esperar da IA nos negócios nos próximos anos e quais empresas podem ser mais impactadas por essa transformação.

In this OODAcast episode, host Matt Devost sits down with Maxie Reynolds, author of The Art of the Attack, to explore the evolution of her unique career from offshore oil rigs to elite red teaming and cybersecurity innovation. Maxie shares how her unconventional path, working a decade in oil and gas, earning degrees while on remote rigs, and eventually breaking into cybersecurity at PwC, shaped her approach to physical and digital security. Her journey led to the creation of a company that builds underwater data centers, a novel fusion of her industrial and red teaming experiences. She discusses the rising interest in submerged infrastructure, particularly after China's moves in the space and the demands of modern AI-driven cooling systems. The conversation dives deep into what it means to adopt an "attacker mindset", seeing opportunities where others see obstacles and using architecture, human psychology, and environment as vectors for access. Maxi outlines how her social engineering engagements hinge on understanding perception, psychology, and pretext creation rather than just technical exploits. She offers real-world stories of infiltrating secure facilities and engaging high-stakes targets using layered personas and misdirection.

In April 2025, Chinese automaker BYD surpassed Tesla in European electric vehicle sales for the first time, registering 7,231 units compared to Tesla's 7,165. This shift is attributed to BYD's competitively priced and technologically advanced lineup. Tesla's sales in California, its largest American market, declined in all four quarters of 2024, with Model 3 sales plunging 36% for the year.

He said the company would "gradually stop using contractors to do work that AI can handle" and "headcount will only be given if a team cannot automate more of their work."The backlash was harsh. Tweets, TikToks, and Reddit posts exploded in outrage. As of Tuesday, Duolingo's social accounts had been wiped — no posts, no icon. Duolingo did not respond to a request for comment.And the one statement that was released by a Duolingo spokesperson, after the account went dark, did not shade much light on the situation (pun intended): “Let's just say we're experimenting with silence. Sometimes, the best way to make noise is to disappear first.”Duolingo CEO says there may still be schools in our AI future, but mostly just for childcareBro dictatorship (76% combined voting power)Co-founder CEO Luis von Ahn (43%); co-founder CTO Severin Hacker (40%)Classified board: why?Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote, and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 20 votesThe worst kind of suck-ups: Verizon ends DEI programs, diversity goals as it seeks approval for Frontier acquisition MMVerizon dumped DEI.

Tune in as Glenn Hunzinger, PwC's Health Industries Leader, connects with Matt Rich, PwC's Pharma and Life Sciences R&D Leader, to unpack the recent disruption at the FDA and what it means for the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors. They discuss how companies can stay agile in the face of regulatory uncertainty, avoid preventable delays, and take practical steps to move programs forward with clarity.Discussion highlights:Ongoing restructuring at the FDA is creating uncertainty and delays in drug and device approvals, with wide-ranging impacts across the pharma, biotech and medtech landscape.While companies can't control the regulatory environment, they can focus on improving internal speed, efficiency, and submission quality to keep programs moving forwardAvoiding preventable missteps, or “foot faults,” in data, endpoints, and submission packages is critical to reducing review delays and regulatory pushbackDiversifying risk by pursuing parallel regulatory pathways in other regions such as Europe and Japan can help accelerate access and reduce dependency on a single agencyIn the absence of a clear playbook, companies should focus on what they can control by applying past lessons, staying disciplined, and collaborating across the industry to support more efficient FDA review processesSpeakers:Matt Rich, PwC's Pharmaceutical and Life Sciences R&D LeaderGlenn Hunzinger, Partner, Health Industries Leader, PwCLinked materials:Navigating the FDA disruption: 4 key actions for pharmaFor more information, please visit us at: https://www.pwc.com/us/en/industries/health-industries/health-research-institute/next-in-health-podcast.html.

The rules of leadership have changed, but most leaders didn't get the memo. We're leading in a time of constant disruption, fractured teams, and AI eating away at every corner of the workplace. It's no longer enough to rely on outdated mindsets, old leadership playbooks, and hoping for the best. In this episode, we explore what real future-ready leadership looks like. Navy SEAL and leadership coach Rich Diviney shares why it's not your skills, but your attributes, like resilience and adaptability, that determine how you lead under pressure and make you an elite leader. Keith Ferazzi, Founder, Chair, & CEO at Ferrazzi Greenlight, rewrites the traditional leadership script by laying out his “teamship” model for building teams that hold each other accountable. And finally, Dan Priest, US Chief AI Officer of PwC, shows how to stop fearing AI and start using it as a strategic edge. This is the mindset, model, and method leaders need to thrive and lead effectively in this next era. Don't miss it! ________________ This episode is sponsored by Workhuman.
