This episode of Pipeline Visionaries features an interview with Rodrigo Maroni, Head of U.S. at Winnin, the cultural intelligence platform that reveals actionable insights to grow your brand's cultural relevance exponentially. Rodrigo shares why culture is the invisible hand guiding B2B consumer decisions, why chasing trends won't make brands relevant, and how predictive cultural data uncovers unexpected audience opportunities.Quotes We don't track things like share of voice. Really I believe that this is an outdated metric. You are only measuring your intent, not your outcome. So we use a metric we develop called share of attention. Share of attention is really a metric that takes into account, the output in there, the effect, the impact that you make in your audience.We are measuring the end game, not the starting game, so you get a real pulse on what's working.Key TakeawaysCulture drives growth. Every purchase decision is culturally influenced, even in B2B. Don't chase trends. Predict cultural moments and map “cultural categories” to get ahead.Hidden audiences = growth. Insights from behavioral data can reveal unexpected segments like sneakerheads for cleaning products.Measure what matters. Share of attention captures true cultural impact, unlike outdated share of voice metrics.Episode Timestamps(05:49) The Trust Tree: Collecting behavioral data(21:38) The Playbook: Developing cultural intelligence reports (30:19) Dust up: Navigating gaps in metrics (31:05) Quick hits: Rodrigo's Quick HitsSponsorPipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

California is quietly bringing back asset limits for Medi-Cal long-term care coverage in 2026, and current recipients could be in for a devastating surprise. Here's what's happening: California eliminated asset limits for elderly and disabled Medi-Cal recipients in 2024, but those limits are returning in 2026. If you currently receive long-term care Medi-Cal benefits, when you submit your annual eligibility report next year, you could lose your coverage if your assets exceed the new limits.    In this critical episode, estate planning attorney Kirsten Howe explains the $130,000 asset limit returning for single individuals, why 2025 is your last opportunity to transfer assets without penalties, and the difference between regular Medi-Cal and long-term care Medi-Cal coverage. She also covers exactly which assets will count against you, which are exempt, and essential planning strategies to protect your benefits before the deadline.     Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00 Introduction 0:02 Federal vs. state changes: distinguishing between well-publicized federal Medicaid cuts and California's hidden asset limit reversal 1:56 MAGI Medi-Cal breakdown - how Obamacare's expanded coverage works for healthy, low-income individuals 2:17 The crucial distinction: long-term care Medi-Cal covers far more than basic health insurance, serving elderly and disabled populations 3:16 Planning becomes essential again - why future Medi-Cal eligibility will require strategic asset management 3:35 Listen in as Kirsten explains more about exempt assets that may include a house, car, prepaid funeral, burial plot, small life insurance, and retirement accounts 4:27 Currently, 2025 offers no asset limits, exempt status for all assets, and penalty-free transfers 4:55 Next, Kirsten talks about the annual report trap that could devastate current recipients in 2026 5:36 Qualified yesterday, disqualified tomorrow: how current beneficiaries risk losing coverage despite meeting past requirements

Being “Qualified” Won't Get You Hired I Gina Riley This week, Gina Riley isn't pulling any punches – teasing out the highlights of her new book,  Qualified Isn't Enough. We leave nothing behind, cracking open with the truths most executives don't want to hear—but need to: Why résumés are an illusion – receipts, not strategies. The blind spots that sabotage even the best pedigrees. Why thought leadership, not passion, is the new differentiator. Why the final round is where most leaders fail. Gina has sat inside the boardroom, trained execs, and built a system to move you from overlooked to undeniable. If being “qualified” was enough, you'd be hired. This episode explains why you're not—and how to address it.   Connect with Gina: Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginariley/ Book: https://amzn.to/3Kih0Bt   Loved the episode? Subscribe to it!

This episode of Pipeline Visionaries features an interview with Tamir Sigal, the CMO of Trintech, a company that helps finance and accounting teams simplify and automate the entire financial close process, from reconciliations to reporting. Tamir explans his marketing philosophy of focusing on the customer journey, driving alignment across the organization, and evolving tactics around personalization, in-person experiences, and AI. He also reflects on rebranding challenges, innovative campaigns, and why he encourages his team to experiment—even if it means making mistakes along the way.Quote: “We just get so much information into our lives—whether it's through email, social media, our devices, and how do you differentiate? How do you cut through the noise? So one of our tactics is making sure that we're personalizing the message to the right audience. One of my pet peeves is saying the right message at the right time at the right channel. That's so cliché to say, but it's at the heart of what we want to do—making sure that the message is personalized to the industry, to the persona, and to the topic.”Key Takeaways:Personalization cuts through noise. Tailoring messages by industry, persona, and timing is key to standing out in a crowded digital landscape.CMOs are responsible for creating alignment.

Today I'm opening the doors and sharing a clip straight from inside my Business Mentorship. Why? Because this topic is too important not to share publicly. So many spiritual teachers ask me about integrity, especially when it comes to standing as a Divine Feminine channel and working with what we might call dark feminine wisdom. In this class clip, you'll witness one of my mentorship students having a profound breakthrough and claiming her authority to guide others through the gateways of the dark feminine because she's lived it. She's been torn apart and initiated. And now, she carries the wisdom to mentor with truth and transmission. This conversation gets real about the difference between coaching and mentoring, the “bronze key” initiation that can't be faked, and the Sage archetype that emerges only through lived experience. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ The difference between coaching and true mentorship ✨ Why dark feminine work requires embodied initiation, not just training ✨ What integrity really looks like in spiritual teaching ✨ The transition from Contributor to Sage, and why it matters ✨ How your hardest life experiences become your greatest transmissions If you've ever felt the call to guide others through shadow work, this episode will validate what you know deep inside, and remind you that wisdom comes through experience, not just study.

I wanted to share my experience job hunting because it was an important reminder that I still have work to do. It's okay to be talented and still want to progress. I got a job that I was overqualified for but just wanted my foot in the door and within less than a year, I received two promotions and almost doubled my salary. I grew quickly because I was qualified but I was not qualified for the initial positions I was applying for during my job search. It's important to be honest with yourself and outline stepping stones needed for you to accomplish your goals… personally or professionally.

In this episode, Roger Abel and Elias Randel tackle two big questions from listeners that many families wrestle with.

In this stretching and vulnerable episode, Emma Stark is joined by prophets Caroline Swan and Jonah Wilson to share a fresh prophetic word for this moment in history.Caroline tells a striking dream about losing her teeth in a business meeting — a picture of prophets being taken out of their usual platforms and thrown into unfamiliar spaces (business, education, government, healthcare)… where they have NO experience, NO preparation, and NO comfort — only a YES to God.They discuss:Why the Lord is intentionally pulling His prophets into uncomfortable placesThe difference between institutional safety and kingdom obedienceWhy your “I don't know enough” is no longer an excuseHow to bellow a YES to God… even when you feel you're getting it wrongWhy being uncomfortable is a sign you're exactly where He wants youIf you've felt God tugging you out of familiarity — this episode is a confirmation: say yes, and trust Him with the rest.

This episode features an interview with Bruno Bertini, the CMO of 8x8, a CX platform that brings together business communications and interaction data in one place.Bruno discusses 8x8's innovative marketing campaigns, particularly 'The Power of You,' which creatively leverages AI to feature customers in engaging ways. Bruno shares insights into their marketing strategy, the role of AI in scaling their efforts, and the challenges and rewards of pushing creative boundaries in B2B marketing. Guest Quote:"In B2B, the only way to cut through the noise is by doing something creative. Imagine you're a buyer. You wake up like, oh my God, I'm gonna read a white paper this morning. I'm so excited. Anyways, jokes aside for us as we are repositioning the company, the idea was I don't have the biggest budget. You know, I'm one of the smallest players in a very big market, that's moving at quantum speed. So instead of burning all the money we had just in paid, trying to push more of the usual, the idea was can we do something really different leveraging our internal AI culture."Episode Timestamps: *(06:42) The Trust Tree: Economies of scale from AI content*(10:05) The Playbook: The Power of You Campaign*(44:48) Quick Hits: Bruno's quick hitsSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

We needed to act and think and behave like a B2C firm. So we came up with this brand mantra: Be more than. Nike had just do it. Apple had think different. We are all about Be More Than. And this is our rallying cry. It tells people exactly who we are. It tells you what we're gonna do for you, for employees. It gives you a sense that Korn Ferry is rough, man, it's pretty relentless because we are always gonna push you to be more than you were yesterday."Episode Timestamps: *(19:09) The Trust Tree: Marketing is best suited to lead and drive innovation*(22:23) The Playbook: Get the right people, the rest falls into place*(44:40) Quick Hits: Jill's quick hitsSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

This episode features an interview with Thea Hayden, CMO at Cognizant, a  leading professional services company that brings deep technology and industry expertise together to help our clients transform and stay ahead. Thea discusses the importance of a strong partnership with IT, and the significance of multi-channel tactics. She also shares insights into experiential marketing tactics and her commitment to fostering a culture of experimentation and fun within her marketing team. Key Takeaways:We often discuss building strong relationships with the CFO, but investing in your relationship with your CIO is essential too, since the martech stack is so crucial to success. Overindexing on any strength will make it your weakness; nothing works in isolation and a multichannel approach is necessary. AI may be the death of spray and pray tactics and broad reach marketing, since personalization will be so much easier and more successful. Quote:  ”The tactic that may finally die because of AI is spray and pray, right? Because everything's going to be so personalized and so easy to personalize, and so much more effective because of that. And so I think even the days of just super broad reach maybe are dead altogether.”Episode Timestamps: *(03:00) The Trust Tree: Start with the end in mind*(16:48) The Playbook: Overindexing on strengths, makes them weaknesses*(33:30) The Dust Up: Build a strong relationship with IT*(34:26) Quick Hits: Thea's quick hits Sponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.
