A new episode of Mathematica's On the Evidence podcast explores the idea that a more comprehensive approach to evaluation, including study of a program's design and implementation, maximizes a program's chances of success. The episode draws from a convening in January at Mathematica's D.C. office at which experts from the federal government, philanthropy, academia, and research organizations discussed insights from the Oxford Handbook on Program Design and Implementation Evaluation, edited by Mathematica's Anu Rangarajan. The episode features Rangarajan as well as seven other speakers who expand upon the idea that a more comprehensive approach to evaluation could provide more useful information about whether a program is working, and if not, how it could be tweaked to work. The following speakers also appear in the episode: - Michael Woolcock, lead social scientist, Development Research Group, World Bank - Paul Decker, president and chief executive officer, Mathematica - Emilie Bagby, director, international education, Mathematica - Alix Zwane, chief executive officer, Global Innovation Fund - Melissa Chiappetta, senior education advisor, Latin America and the Caribbean, U.S. Agency for International Development - Douglas J.

In this podcast episode, ⁠Dr. Deva Rangarajan⁠ discusses the topic of prospecting in sales. The conversation covers various aspects of prospecting, including the changes in prospecting over time, the difference between advertising and marketing, and the role of sales and marketing in outbound and inbound prospecting. The discussion also touches on the effectiveness of cold calling and cold emailing, the challenges of purchasing mailing lists, and the importance of automation in sales. The episode concludes with a recap of the main points discussed and a preview of the next episode, which will delve into a practical example of prospecting. Takeaways Prospecting in sales involves both outbound and inbound approaches. The role of sales and marketing teams is crucial in both outbound and inbound prospecting. Cold calling and cold emailing can still be effective in certain scenarios and industries. Purchasing mailing lists may not be a reliable or recommended approach. Automation plays a significant role in streamlining sales processes. Open rates and response rates in email campaigns can vary, and it is important to set realistic expectations.

In this conversation, Dr. Deva Rangarajan discusses the differences between sales, pre-sales, and marketing. He explains that marketing is about creating awareness and educating customers, while pre-sales helps customers formulate solutions and sales focuses on negotiating terms and conditions. Dr. Rangarajan emphasizes that these roles can be performed by the same person or different individuals, depending on the complexity of the business and customer needs. He also highlights the importance of understanding customer requirements, being patient, and having curiosity in sales. Additionally, he addresses the challenge of selling products you're not convinced about and the need for effective communication and listening skills in sales. In this conversation, Krish and Dr. Deva Rangarajan discuss the qualities of a salesperson, the importance of curiosity and listening skills, and the balance between passion and sales skills. They also explore the subjectivity in sales and the role of process in selling. The conversation concludes with closing remarks and an invitation for further questions. Takeaways Marketing creates awareness and educates customers, pre-sales helps formulate solutions, and sales negotiates terms and conditions. The roles of marketing, pre-sales, and sales can be performed by the same person or different individuals. Understanding customer needs and effectively communicating with them is crucial in sales. Being patient, curious, and having effective listening skills are important qualities in sales. Curiosity and listening skills are essential qualities for a salesperson. Passion for the business can be important, but sales skills are also crucial. Subjectivity is inherent in sales, and it is important to embrace it. Selling is both a process and an art form, requiring a balance of science and creativity.

In this Episode, I (@Jivraj Singh Sachar) speak with Rangarajan Krishanan, CEO of Five Star Finance. Rangarajan's persona is a bit beyond the norm on the podcast, as he is not a direct founder nor an investor. Rangarajan is the CEO who joined Five Star Finance as an outsider, but in the 7 years that he has been around he has led the company to a Public Listing on the NSE and is gearing up for a phenomenal run as the CEO of a Public Company in India. His thoughts around starting up, company building, talent & culture are very fascinating in a world of venture funded startups. This conversation is very different from the usual episodes on the show as it displays some very interesting old economy + new economy insights. Five Star Finance is a MSME lending company with almost 6000 crores in disbursements through a brand led model mostly prevalent in the south of India currently. Interestingly, Five Star holds the unique badge of being the Oldest Unicorn in the country having started almost 34 years back as a traditional business. I chat with Rangarajan on how this journey has unfolded and his learnings along the way. We discuss some very fascinating aspects of company building and lending in FinTech. This mostly revolves around the underwriting, collections and expansion process at Five Star - decoding the business model in depth. Further, we understand how starting up needs to be organic and what alternative ways to blitzscaling, talent curation and founder growth might be. This episode is very interesting to say the least, stick around for some phenomenal insights from the CEO of a Public Company in India! But before we get started, here is a quick word on our sponsor for the episode: Stride Ventures, which is one of India's leading Venture Debt Funds, becoming synonymous with innovative startup financing in India. Stride provides comprehensive solutions, going beyond venture debt, to cater to distinctive challenges faced by high-growth and inherently strong businesses, backed by leading institutions.

In this episode, Divya speaks with Dr. Ghazala Shahabuddin. Ghazala is an ecologist based in India, where she currently teaches at the Ashoka University and is also working on multiple projects focusing on the ecological and institutional aspects of decentralized forest management, conservation, wildlife policy and politics, and community-based ecotourism.  They talk about Ghazala's important work on conservation-induced displacement in India, which she has written extensively about in several books and articles (links below), particularly her books: Conservation at the Crossroads: Science, Society and the Future of India's Wildlife and Making Conservation Work (co-edited with Dr. Mahesh Rangarajan). They also discuss Ghazala's ongoing work on the impacts of land-use change on natural ecosystems and community-based ecotourism in the mid-Himalayan region of India. Ghazala's work although diverse, we see that the common themes cutting across her work are the role of science in informing human dimensions of environment and policy, local people and histories in conservation, and the role of context-specific studies in informing global discourses on climate change and development.  More information on Ghazala's work: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Ghazala-Shahabuddin   References:  Shahabuddin, G.

In this episode, Divya spoke with Aparajita Datta, a senior scientist at the Nature Conservation Foundation, a non-governmental research organization based in Bangalore, India. Aparajita is known for her work on community-based hornbill conservation in the northeastern part of India. Her main research interests include plant-animal interactions in rainforests, understanding anthropogenic effects on wildlife, and engaging with the tribal communities in conservation. In this episode, she shares her experience of trying to carry out inclusive conservation and the roles that partnerships with multiple stakeholders play in the process. Aparajita's work is a bit unusual; she is one of those rare scholars who have been striving to translate her research on the ground. But conducting action-oriented research comes at a cost, and it is evident from Aparajita's narrative as she shares her experience of getting emotionally attached to the tribal community she has been working with, while facing skepticism from some, and yet having the grit to keep persevering as she goes back and forth through the complex emotions of feeling both disheartened and inspired in her work. She now believes after 20 years, that doing research is more satisfying and easy than on-ground conservation, and that reconciliation between wildlife and people is not always possible.    Aparajita's bio:  https://www.ncf-india.org/author/646436/aparajita-datta https://www.nationalgeographic.org/find-explorers/aparajita-datta   Selected References: Borawake, N., Datta, A., & Naniwadekar, R.

At GE Renewable Energy, CTO Danielle Merfeld and technical leader Arvind Rangarajan are among those making advances throughout renewable energy. Merfeld and Rangarajan spoke with NVIDIA AI Podcast host Noah Kravitz about how the company uses AI and a human-in-the-loop process to make renewable energy more widespread. The International Energy Agency has set a goal to reach a net zero energy sector by 2050. To reach this goal, 88 percent of electricity needs to come from renewable sources. Wind energy will account for 40 percent of that, but today only makes up 8 percent of renewable energy. https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2021/08/25/ge-ai-energy/
