Podcasts about Raising the Bar

On this episode of Best Bets for Pets, host Michelle Fern tackles an important topic for anyone who travels with their pet — especially the more than 800,000 U.S. truck drivers who bring their dogs (and sometimes cats) along for the ride. Volvo Trucks North America has partnered with the Center for Pet Safety to conduct the first-of-its-kind evaluation of pet safety in a Class 8 long-haul truck — and the results may surprise you. Michelle speaks with Chris Stadler of Volvo Trucks about the all-new Volvo VNL, which passed the pet safety assessment, including strength-tested anchor points compatible with CPS-certified harnesses and carriers, an industry-leading battery-powered Parking Cooler that keeps pets comfortable up to eight hours without idling, and innovative sleeper-cab design features that support safe pet travel. Whether you drive a big rig or a family SUV, this episode highlights crucial lessons about securing pets, managing temperature, and raising the bar for travel safety for our four-legged co-pilots.EPISODE NOTES: Big Rigs & Barking Co-Pilots - Volvo: Raising the Bar on Pet Travel SafetyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/best-bets-for-pets-the-latest-pet-product-trends-pets-animals-pet-life-radio-original--6667904/support.

Have you ever looked at a "natural" leader and wondered why it seems so easy for them? In our latest episode of Raising The Bar on Leadership, I sat down with my close friend O'Brien McMahon (SVP at Lockton and host of People Business) to debunk the myth of the natural-born leader. O'Brien's core philosophy is simple but transformative: Everything is a skill. From leadership and communication to psychological safety, these aren't things you're born with, they are things you build through consistent "reps".

“Send Coach John a message”Found a double scoop of reflection this morning. First scoop comes from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) where he shares  “A message for today … Sometimes growth isn't about adding … it's about releasing what no longer serves you. Let go of things that hold you back. When you create space, you make room for clarity, peace & new opportunities. Lighten the load. Trust yourself. Move forward free.”  Powerful thoughts to help us see the freedom of letting go of things that cause ourselves troubles. It's all part of moving towards our own happiness and well-being. The second scoop came from Clint Hurdle (@ClintHurdle13) and his book “Hurdle-isms”. It's Hurdle-ism 17: “Lower the Bar and You Lose the Winners; Raise the Bar and You Lose the Losers.”  WOW… Big time double scoop of things that can help all of us. I was thinking about these two on my walk with our dog this morning. Always a walk of peace, thinking, watching, listening, etc. This got me going today realizing that I need to keep raising the bar in my life. The person that stares back at us in the mirror knows!

Everyone is publishing. Few are saying anything new.In a world where AI can generate a blog post in seconds, what actually makes thought leadership real? In this episode of Content Amplified, Ben sits down with Jake Edie—clean energy expert and managing partner of RenewComm—to unpack how AI is reshaping B2B marketing, why most AI content feels hollow, and what separates true expertise from algorithmic noise.Jake brings a rare combination of hands-on industry experience and marketing acumen. After transitioning from consulting and marketing into the clean energy sector, he built deep operational knowledge inside a complex industry—knowledge that AI simply can't access. And that gap? It's where real thought leadership lives.This conversation goes beyond surface-level AI talk. It explores credibility, attention, signal vs. noise, and how companies can use AI as a force multiplier—without outsourcing their thinking.If you're building authority in your space, this episode will challenge how you create and distribute ideas.What you'll learn in this episode:Why AI can only reflect what's publicly available—and why that limits its strategic insightThe two types of thought leadership: challenging conventional wisdom vs. elevating industry understandingHow behind-the-scenes industry knowledge becomes your biggest competitive advantageWhere AI fits in the marketing process: strategy, messaging, and tactical executionHow to use AI to repurpose expert insights without diluting authenticityWhy audiences are developing “AI filters”—and how to stand out anywayWhat the future of thought leadership may look like as AI targeting and personalization evolveHow short-form video, audio, and live content may become the new proof of expertiseAbout Jake EdieJake Edie is a managing partner of RenewComm, a marketing agency focused on the clean energy sector. With more than 15 years of experience across consulting, marketing, business development, and commercial operations, Jake combines strategic clarity with deep industry knowledge.After beginning his career in consulting, marketing at The Princeton Review, and a software startup, Jake pivoted into clean energy to align his work with his personal values. He earned a graduate degree in environmental science and policy to complement his economics background—building expertise across business, technology, and policy.Jake is particularly passionate about how renewable energy integrates into the electric grid and how complex technical industries can communicate with clarity and credibility.Connect with Jake:Jake Edie's LinkedIn ProfileRenewComm's WebsiteText us what you think about this episode!

In this episode of Develop This!, host Dennis Fraise sits down with Phil Schneider, Project Principal at Global Location Strategies (GLS), to unpack one of the most critical challenges facing communities today: site readiness. With more than 30 years of global consulting experience and nearly 400 site selection engagements across manufacturing, headquarters, R&D, technology, and shared services, Phil brings a site selector's unfiltered perspective on how the site selection landscape has fundamentally changed—and why many communities are struggling to keep up. The conversation explores how manufacturing site selection projects now move at hyper speed, why risk aversion among companies has intensified, and how the shortage of truly competitive industrial sites is reshaping economic development strategy. Phil also dives into the persistent problem of inconsistent definitions of "ready sites" across states and programs—and how that inconsistency can derail projects before they even get started. A major focus of the episode is the work of the Site Selectors Guild to establish national standards for site readiness. Phil explains how standardized criteria, data transparency, and data integrity can dramatically improve a community's competitiveness—and save both site selectors and economic developers valuable time. This episode is essential listening for any economic development professional looking to align their site readiness efforts with real-world site selection expectations. Key Takeaways Site readiness is now a baseline requirement, not a competitive advantage. Site selection timelines have compressed dramatically, increasing pressure on communities. There is a national shortage of quality, build-ready industrial sites. Companies are increasingly risk-averse, demanding better data and fewer unknowns. Definitions of "ready sites" vary widely—and that inconsistency creates friction. Economic developers and site selectors don't always evaluate readiness the same way. Data richness, accessibility, and transparency are essential to staying competitive. The Site Selectors Guild Ready Sites program helps identify gaps and raise standards. There are no perfect sites—but knowing your site's limitations matters. National site readiness standards are becoming increasingly important, even globally.

American trust in pastors has halved since 2009. Weekly church attendance is down 40%. What is going on — and what is the answer? Kevin and Danny talk about how pragmatic leadership strategies have compromised the pastorate…the difference being a Christian leader and a Christian influencer…forgiveness of scandal vs restoration to office…the need for leaders to actually be ahead of others…and ministry as a work of love, not a platform for impact.

The BanterThe Guys discuss a restaurant experience that let the rabbit out the hat.The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys catch up with buddy Jeff Bell to discuss the bar scene in New York. From humble beginnings as a barback at PDT to owning it and several other of the coolest places in NYC, Jeff tells about his experiences of becoming a business owner, including (the requisite) major disaster during his first year. The Inside TrackThe Guys have known Jeff for years and were taken by his wisdom of bartending preparing him for fatherhood. “ Being a bartender for years is just absolutely great training for parenthood. There is this volatility you get from people drinking [of] the highs and lows where they can just start laughing for no reason or crying for no reason… or have a bodily fluid mistake,” Jeff Bell on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025BioJeff Bell has been bartending and running bars for over 15 years. At Please Don't Tell (commonly known as PDT) in the East Village of NYC, he started as a bar-back, worked his way up to head bartender and, eventually, owner. He is also a managing partner in PDT Hong Kong.In 2025, Jeff co-launched a new venture: a bar concept called Mixteca, an agave-forward cocktail bar in the West Village. The concept is rooted in tequila and mezcal. He will be opening Kees bar, a different concept in the same location, later this year.He also was in charge of restoring Peacock Alley in the Waldorf Astoria to “its original grandeur” reviving the space and cocktail offerings from the hotel's rich historyThroughout his tenure at PDT Jeff has earned numerous accolades including Spirited Award: American Bartender of the Year 2017.InfoMixteca bar, NYChttps://cocteleriamixteca.com/The Restaurant Guys will be podcasting from the Food & Wine Classic in Charleston Nov 14-16!

What happens when an “unregulated” industry finally publishes standards? We unpack PSI's new Global Standards for professional pet sitting and dog walking, explaining why standards are the floor—not the ceiling—for ethical care and business practices. We discuss how courts, insurers, and regulators use industry standards to define “reasonable care,” and what that means for documentation, insurance, and client data security. We also outline practical next steps to self-audit your policies, train your team, and communicate compliance to clients. Finally, we share how clearer standards could shift market dynamics—especially for app-based platforms—and elevate the profession's reputation. Main topic:  Standards as baseline professionalism Insurance scope and adequacy Client data security practices Documentation and due diligence Market impact on gig platforms   Main takeaway: “Standards are the floor, not the ceiling” In pet care, published standards aren't limits—they're launchpads. They set the baseline for safety, documentation, insurance, and client data protection so professionals can build higher. When you exceed the floor, you create trust, reduce risk, and stand out in a crowded market. Audit your policies, train your team, and share your alignment—your clients (and their pets) deserve it.    Links: PSI Global Standards for Professional Pet Sitting & Dog Walking (full document): https://www.petsit.com/standards Episode 630 (laws impacting pet care): https://www.petsitterconfessional.com/episodes/630 Check out our Starter Packs See all of our discounts!
