BONUS: The Operating System for Software-Native Organizations - The Five Core Principles In this BONUS episode, the final installment of our Special Xmas 2025 reflection on Software-native businesses, we explore the five fundamental principles that form the operating system for software-native organizations. Building on the previous four episodes, this conversation provides the blueprint for building organizations that can adapt at the speed of modern business demands, where the average company lifespan on the S&P 500 has dropped from 33 years in the 1960s to a projected 12 years by 2027. The Challenge of Adaptation "What we're observing in Ukraine is adaptation happening at a speed that would have been unthinkable in traditional military contexts - new drone capabilities emerge, countermeasures appear within days, and those get countered within weeks." The opening draws a powerful parallel between the rapid adaptation we're witnessing in drone warfare and the existential threats facing modern businesses. While our businesses aren't facing literal warfare, they are confronting dramatic disruption. Clayton Christensen documented this in "The Innovator's Dilemma," but what he observed in the 1970s and 80s is happening exponentially faster now, with software as the accelerant. If we can improve businesses' chances of survival even by 10-15%, we're talking about thousands of companies that could thrive instead of fail, millions of jobs preserved, and enormous value created. The central question becomes: how do you build an organization that can adapt at this speed? Principle 1: Constant Experimentation with Tight Feedback Loops "Everything becomes an experiment. Not in the sense of being reckless or uncommitted, but in being clear about what we're testing and what we expect to learn. I call this: work like a scientist: learning is the goal." Software developers have practiced this for decades through Test-Driven Development, but now this TDD mindset is becoming the ruling metaphor for managing products and entire businesses. The practice involves framing every initiative with three clear elements: the goal (what are we trying to achieve?), the action (what specific thing will we do?), and the learning (what will we measure to know if it worked?). When a client says "we need to improve our retrospectives," software-native organizations don't just implement a new format. Instead, they connect it to business value - improving the NPS score for users of a specific feature by running focused retrospectives that explicitly target user pain points and tracking both the improvements implemented and the actual NPS impact. After two weeks, you know whether it worked. The experiment mindset means you're always learning, never stuck. This is TDD applied to organizational change, and it's powerful because every process change connects directly to customer outcomes. Principle 2: Clear Connection to Business Value "Software-native organizations don't measure success by tasks completed, story points delivered, or features shipped. Or even cycle time or throughput. They measure success by business outcomes achieved." While this seems obvious, most organizations still optimize for output, not outcomes. The practice uses Impact Mapping or similar outcome-focused frameworks where every initiative answers three questions: What business behavior are we trying to change? How will we measure that change? What's the minimum software needed to create that change? A financial services client wanted to "modernize their reporting system" - a 12-month initiative with dozens of features in project terms. Reframed through a business value lens, the goal became reducing time analysts spend preparing monthly reports from 80 hours to 20 hours, measured by tracking actual analyst time, starting with automating just the three most time-consuming report components. The first delivery reduced time to 50 hours - not perfect, but 30 hours saved, with clear learning about which parts of reporting actually mattered. The organization wasn't trying to fulfill requirements; they were laser focused on the business value that actually mattered. When you're connected to business value, you can adapt. When you're committed to a feature list, you're stuck. Principle 3: Software as Value Amplifier "Software isn't just 'something we do' or a support function. Software is an amplifier of your business model. If your business model generates $X of value per customer through manual processes, software should help you generate $10X or more." Before investing in software, ask whether this can amplify your business model by 10x or more - not 10% improvement, but 10x. That's the threshold where software's unique properties (zero marginal cost, infinite scale, instant distribution) actually matter, and where the cost/value curve starts to invert. Remember: software is still the slowest and most expensive way to check if a feature would deliver value, so you better have a 10x or more expectation of return. Stripe exemplifies this principle perfectly. Before Stripe, accepting payments online required a merchant account (weeks to set up), integration with payment gateways (months of development), and PCI compliance (expensive and complex). Stripe reduced that to adding seven lines of code - not 10% easier, but 100x easier. This enabled an entire generation of internet businesses that couldn't have existed otherwise: subscription services, marketplaces, on-demand platforms. That's software as amplifier. It didn't optimize the old model; it made new models possible. If your software initiatives are about 5-10% improvements, ask yourself: is software the right medium for this problem, or should you focus where software can create genuine amplification? Principle 4: Software as Strategic Advantage "Software-native organizations use software for strategic advantage and competitive differentiation, not just optimization, automation, or cost reduction. This means treating software development as part of your very strategy, not a way to implement a strategy that is separate from the software." This concept, discussed with Tom Gilb and Simon Holzapfel on the podcast as "continuous strategy," means that instead of creating a strategy every few years and deploying it like a project, strategy and execution are continuously intertwined when it comes to software delivery. The practice involves organizing around competitive capabilities that software uniquely enables by asking: How can software 10x the value we generate right now? What can we do with software that competitors can't easily replicate? Where does software create a defensible advantage? How does our software create compounding value over time? Amazon Web Services didn't start as a product strategy but emerged from Amazon building internal capabilities to run their e-commerce platform at scale. They realized they'd built infrastructure that was extremely hard to replicate and asked: "What if we offered it to others?" AWS became Amazon's most profitable business - not because they optimized their existing retail business, but because they turned an internal capability into a strategic platform. The software wasn't supporting the strategy - the software became the strategy. Compare this to companies that use software just for cost reduction or process optimization - they're playing defense. Software-native companies use software to play offense, creating capabilities that change the competitive landscape. Continuous strategy means your software capabilities and your business strategy evolve together, in real-time, not in annual planning cycles. Principle 5: Real-Time Observability and Adaptive Systems "Software-native organizations use telemetry and real-time analytics not just to understand their software, but to understand their entire business and adapt dynamically. Observability practices from DevOps are actually ways of managing software delivery itself. We're bootstrapping our own operating system for software businesses." This principle connects back to Principle 1 but takes it to the organizational level. The practice involves building systems that constantly sense what's happening and can adapt in real-time: deploy with feature flags so you can turn capabilities on/off instantly, use A/B testing not just for UI tweaks but for business model experiments, instrument everything so you know how users actually behave, and build feedback loops that let the system respond automatically. Social media companies and algorithmic trading firms already operate this way. Instagram doesn't deploy a new feed algorithm and wait six months to see if it works - they're constantly testing variations, measuring engagement in real-time, adapting the algorithm continuously. The system is sensing and responding every second. High-frequency trading firms make thousands of micro-adjustments per day based on market signals. Imagine applying this to all businesses: a retail company that adjusts pricing, inventory, and promotions in real-time based on demand signals; a healthcare system that dynamically reallocates resources based on patient flow patterns; a logistics company whose routing algorithms adapt to traffic, weather, and delivery success rates continuously. This is the future of software-native organizations - not just fast decision-making, but systems that sense and adapt at software speed, with humans setting goals and constraints but software executing continuous optimization. We're moving from "make a decision, deploy it, wait to see results" to "deploy multiple variants, measure continuously, let the system learn." This closes the loop back to Principle 1 - everything is an experiment, but now the experiments run automatically at scale with near real-time signal collection and decision making. It's Experiments All The Way Down "We established that software has become societal infrastructure. That software is different - it's not a construction project with a fixed endpoint; it's a living capability that evolves with the business." This five-episode series has built a complete picture: Episode 1 established that software is societal infrastructure and fundamentally different from traditional construction. Episode 2 diagnosed the problem - project management thinking treats software like building a bridge, creating cascade failures throughout organizations. Episode 3 showed that solutions already exist, with organizations like Spotify, Amazon, and Etsy practicing software-native development successfully. Episode 4 exposed the organizational immune system - the four barriers preventing transformation: the project mindset, funding models, business/IT separation, and risk management theater. Today's episode provides the blueprint - the five principles forming the operating system for software-native organizations. This isn't theory. This is how software-native organizations already operate. The question isn't whether this works - we know it does. The question is: how do you get started? The Next Step In Building A Software-Native Organization "This is how transformation starts - not with grand pronouncements or massive reorganizations, but with conversations and small experiments that compound over time. Software is too important to society to keep managing it wrong." Start this week by doing two things. First, start a conversation: pick one of these five principles - whichever resonates most with your current challenges - and share it with your team or leadership. Don't present it as "here's what we should do" but as "here's an interesting idea - what would this mean for us?" That conversation will reveal where you are, what's blocking you, and what might be possible. Second, run one small experiment: take something you're currently doing and frame it as an experiment with a clear goal, action, and learning measure. Make it small, make it fast - one week maximum, 24 hours if you can - then stop and learn. You now have the blueprint. You understand the barriers. You've seen the alternatives. The transformation is possible, and it starts with you.

Episode 609 If you want help getting clear on your numbers, your income, and a smarter path to long term freedom, schedule a free strategy call at LoanOfficerStrategyCall.com. Welcome to Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast in the country for loan officers, hosted by Carl White. In this episode, Carl sits down with Adam Crosley, a regional manager with Crown Home Mortgage, for a candid conversation about money, investing, and what it really means to make work optional. The discussion kicks off with Adam sharing how he saved over $8,400 in a single month by consistently paying himself 25% first, and why that habit alone puts him ahead of the vast majority of Americans. Carl and Adam dive deep into real numbers around real estate investing versus the stock market, pulling from decades of firsthand experience. Carl openly shares lessons learned from single family rentals, negative cash flow, and underestimated maintenance, while comparing those results to long term investing in the S&P 500 and precious metals. The conversation strips away theory and focuses on what actually builds wealth with fewer distractions and less stress. They also explore multi unit real estate, leverage, tax strategies, liquidity, and why most investors underestimate the true cost of time and opportunity. Throughout the episode, the message stays clear and practical: save consistently, know your numbers, and keep your focus on the activities that produce the highest return. If you want a real world conversation about building long term wealth while staying focused on your mortgage business and your family, this episode will challenge how you think about money, investing, and freedom.

Welcome to today's episode of The Hot Options Report—your essential guide to options trading and stock market analysis as we head into the holiday break. Host Mark Longo breaks down the day's market volatility, concentrating on the top options trades and key stock movements driving the tape before the holiday. In this episode, we dive into the massive trading volumes and unusual activity seen across the leaderboard, including a historic day for Novo Nordisk (NVO) and the continued dominance of Tesla (TSLA) and Nvidia (NVDA). On This Episode, We Discuss: The NVO "Pill" Pop: Novo Nordisk shares surged following the landmark FDA approval of the oral version of Wegovy. We analyze the explosion in call volume and what this fundamental shift means for the GLP-1 "Weight Loss War" heading into 2026. Tesla (TSLA) Sentiment: Tesla remains the undisputed king of the tape as it pushes toward key psychological levels. We break down the massive open interest and the "Santa Rally" positioning ahead of the highly anticipated January delivery report. Nvidia (NVDA) & The China Pivot: With reports circulating about a green light for specific AI chip shipments to China, Nvidia is seeing a massive influx of aggressive call buying. Is the "AI Trade" finding a second wind for the new year? Broad Market Check: Is the market gift-wrapped for a year-end surge? We look at the sentiment reflected in the major index options chains amidst thin holiday liquidity and record highs for the S&P 500. Unusual Activity Spotlight: We track the "Hot Trades" of the day, including surprising volume in names like MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Robinhood (HOOD). Year-End Positioning: A look at why traders are rolling positions and selling premium to capture holiday decay. Tune in for detailed insights into each options trade, the macro drivers behind today's tape, and the vital implications for active traders.

We take a detour into the Dickensian in evaluating the state of the economy. First, the recent inflation print, which showed a significant decline in the level of price increases, was a fiction worthy of Dickens, with the majority of the data simply made up as a result of the government shutdown. Setting that aside, since 2021, wage growth has not kept pace with inflation for food, shelter, and services, though we can count our blessings that at least alcohol prices have not increased as much… Challenges face the Fed chair (both current and yet to come), and managing a deteriorating labor market and persistently higher prices presents a conundrum. The Fed is simply not getting what it wants at present in terms of rate cuts translating to a lower yield on the 10-year Treasury, and with deficits soaring in spite of a growing economy, some tough choices will have to be made. However, stocks have proven remarkably resilient, and predictions from most Wall Street firms argue for a continued move higher supported by AI, solid growth, fiscal stimulus from tax policy, and further rate cuts. However, the math is a little challenging; to cite one example: The S&P reaches over 7,700 by this time next year (around 13% above where we are now) Earnings grow around 9% (this seems achievable, and maybe even a little conservative) Multiples expand to 26x earnings (this would be at peak dot com levels) We think you might get this level of earnings growth (or better), but that multiple seems a little rambunctious. Even if we do get there, expect some market shenanigans on the way, as history shows mid-term election years tend to see large drawdowns; think back no further than 2022. The average midterm drawdown is around 18%, though the range is very wide. Will brings it home with a reading from a speech given by Scrooge's nephew Fred so we end on a positive note celebrating the season.
La confianza de los consumidores estadounidenses se deteriora en diciembre en medio de una creciente ansiedad por el empleo y los ingresos. Esto va en consonancia con las expectativas de los economistas de una fuerte moderación del gasto tras su repunte en el tercer trimestre. Esa partida destacaba hoy en los datos de PIB. Tras ellos, los rendimientos de los bonos han subido. Las Bolsas están tranquilas, con suaves subidas en índices de referencia. Seis de los 11 sectores del S&P suben, encabezados por energía y servicios de comunicación. Los sectores de consumo básico e inmobiliario son los más rezagados. Analizamos el mercado con Roberto Scholtes, de Singular Bank.

Pepe Baynat analiza en Radio Intereconomía la situación general de los mercados. En el plano macro, destaca el buen momento del IBEX 35 en máximos históricos, que continúa con la tendencia alcista que viene marcando este año, mostrando fortaleza frente a otros mercados europeos. En Wall Street, pese a las caídas puntuales del sector tecnológico, el S&P 500 sigue mostrando una estructura sólida y podría volver a testear máximos si mantiene los soportes clave. Pepe Baynat insiste en la importancia de identificar soportes, resistencias y tendencias antes de tomar decisiones, señalando que muchos valores han subido con fuerza y pueden estar en fases de consolidación o corrección. El experto recomienda cautela en acciones que han tenido fuertes revalorizaciones (como Leonardo o McKesson) y advierte del riesgo de “arranques en falso” en compañías que vienen de caídas muy profundas, como Bayer, Stellantis o Nokia, donde pueden darse rebotes técnicos pero con alta volatilidad. Para estrategias de medio y largo plazo, sugiere paciencia en valores castigados pero con potencial de recuperación, como Cellnex, siempre que respeten ciertos niveles técnicos. En otros casos, plantea operaciones de corto plazo muy condicionadas a stops claros. El mercado sigue ofreciendo oportunidades, pero exige disciplina, gestión del riesgo y no dejarse llevar únicamente por subidas recientes o movimientos emocionales.

The hosts tackle trending topics—like the proposed $1,000 investment for newborns, excessive phone use, and the evolving American Dream—while weaving in actionable mindset and business strategies sure to benefit ambitious coaches and their clients. The conversation is raw, insightful, and packed with real-world examples on how to thrive in uncertainty, guide kids toward success, and manage the inevitable anxiety that comes with ambition. Trump's $1,000 S&P Investment Proposal for Newborns Rode Dog asks about Donald Trump's idea of gifting $1,000 to babies born after July 4th to be invested in the S&P 500. Karl Bryan discusses the pros, potential loopholes, and the importance of teaching kids about investing early. Excessive Phone Use and Its Impact Deep dive into why entrepreneurs and their clients are sucked into their phones, driven by cortisol (stress hormone) rather than dopamine. Karl Bryan offers tactics and fresh insights for business owners to control digital addiction—both for themselves and their kids. Guiding Young Entrepreneurs & Kids Amid a Shifting American Dream The hosts address the growing difficulty for young people to buy homes, launch businesses, and build wealth. Karl Bryan shares candid guidance on how to coach young clients and kids to thrive despite economic headwinds, focusing on building temperament rather than seeking an easy life. Anxiety as the Price of Ambition Rode Dog pushes Karl Bryan to expand on last week's comment about "anxiety being the price of ambition." The discussion explores practical ways to manage pressure and use it as fuel, rather than letting it become a hurdle. Compounding Success in Business and Life Why slow, steady progress trumps quick wins or constant movement. Karl Bryan lays out specific strategies for compounding business results via relentless fundamentals and clear client accountability. Notable Quotes "The end of the day, teaching children to invest and the mechanism to do so is amazing on the surface in my opinion." — Karl Bryan "Comparison is the thief of joy. And that phone you're holding right now is a comparison machine." — Karl Bryan "You're not looking to optimize for happiness. You're looking to optimize for peace." — Karl Bryan "If you've got a high tolerance for uncomfortable situations, I think you're leading yourself towards a big life... Not drive for an easy life, drive to allow nothing to faze you." — Karl Bryan "Anxiety is the price of ambition. Write that one down if you're ambitious. So be gentle with yourself. Be gentle." — Karl Bryan Actionable Takeaways Coach Phone Use with Clients Encourage clients to track their screen time, ease off gradually instead of quitting cold turkey, and use fundamental well-being tactics (exercise, sleep, sunlight, hydration) to curb addiction. Teach Ownership & Asset-Building Guide young people and business owners to continually invest in real estate, stocks, and businesses; dollar cost average and automate investments to build true wealth. Embrace Struggle and Uncomfortable Situations Frame discomfort as a catalyst for growth—for clients and your own kids. Temperament beats brilliance. Focus on Fundamentals Over Excitement Dig into the boring, profit-rich niches (plumbers, landscapers, logistics, car wash businesses), and master essential business fundamentals: upsell, down-sell, cross-sell, proper onboarding, and cost control. Structure Accountability and Connection Track real-life social interaction, structure onboarding with clear values, and hold clients to high accountability for long-term results. Turn Pressure into Privilege Remind clients and yourself that pressure is a privilege—use it to fuel achievement, not to trigger burnout.

Today, Jason talks about the power of leverage and real estate investment. A core argument is presented through comparative returns, illustrating that leveraging single-family homes yields a superior return on investment compared to the S&P 500 and gold, driven by the host's "inflation-induced debt destruction strategy." He also touches upon a housing shortage, limited inventory, and the Federal Reserve's rate cut, which is expected to further increase home prices. Finally, Jason encourages listeners to become direct investors and "buy some houses and rent them out," criticizing more complex investment vehicles like syndications and the stock market as deals where only the promoters profit significantly. Jason then welcomes client Jay Von Lehman, a former Army engineer officer turned real estate investor, who discussed his investment journey from reading Rich Dad Poor Dad in 2013 to his current focus on gold investments through Monetary Metals. They explored the economic benefits of real estate and precious metals investments, particularly in the context of inflation and currency devaluation, while also discussing the government's stance on cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin. They conclude with a discussion about the current real estate market conditions and the benefits of self-managing properties across multiple states, with Jay sharing his experience managing properties remotely. #RealEstate #Leverage #InflationInducedDebtDestruction #AssetAppreciation #SingleFamilyHomes #IncomeProperty #TaxFavoredAssetClass #FedRateCut #MoneyPrinter #HousingShortage #ShadowDemand #EconomicBoom #GDPGrowth #TechnologyBoom #AI #MonthsOfSupply #DirectInvestor #StopOvercomplicatingIt #BuyHousesRentThemOut #MasterClass #ClientCaseStudy #PasadenaCalifornia Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:58 Join our FREE Masterclass every second Wednesday of each month.

Larry Kriesmer shares how his career evolved from life insurance to options-driven wealth management, explaining that supervisory limitations at his former firm pushed him to launch his own RIA focused on option-based strategies. He and the host discuss the industry's longstanding discomfort with options, the differences among custodians, and the surge in option-centric ETFs driven by investor demand for income, downside buffers, and more predictable outcomes. Larry explains why he favors synthetic long exposure to the S&P 500, how options can create defined risk in ways traditional 60/40 portfolios cannot, and why repeated market shocks have increased interest in structures that limit drawdowns. He also stresses that while options can be powerful, they require real understanding—especially given the asymmetric risks—and that most investors are best served using simple strategies or working with experienced professionals. Larry Kriesmer shares his background transitioning from life insurance into wealth management and ultimately founding his own RIA due to options-related supervision limitations at his prior firm. We highlight how many insurance and brokerage firms restrict options usage because supervisors often lack the necessary licensing or comfort with the risks. Early-career experiences show how compliance departments often misunderstand options and overburden advisors executing client-driven trades. Larry explains that custodians also vary widely in their options competency, noting TD Ameritrade's historically advanced approach compared to more conservative platforms like Schwab and Fidelity. He describes how the growth of option-based ETFs and structured strategies reflects rising demand for income, risk buffers, and outcome-based portfolio design. Why options are resurging in popularity despite being decades old, tying it to investor frustration with unpredictable markets, multiple major drawdowns, and the need for more controlled outcomes. Larry outlines his discovery of options through studying indexed annuities, which showed him how options could define downside risk and reshape portfolio construction. He explains his core strategy of staying synthetically long the S&P 500 at all times, avoiding market timing, and focusing on capturing upside while limiting drawdowns. The conversation touches on potential expansion of his strategy into other sectors or international markets, though the S&P remains his primary exposure due to its self-healing nature. Larry critiques modern portfolio theory as outdated and insufficient for managing real downside risk, arguing that a bond-plus-options structure can outperform a traditional 60/40 on a risk-adjusted basis. You discuss how 2022 exposed the limitations of conventional diversification when both stocks and bonds fell simultaneously. Larry emphasizes that while options can be powerful tools, investors must deeply understand which side of the contract's risk they are assuming to avoid catastrophic losses. He concludes that most investors should pursue education but ultimately rely on professionals or ETF structures if they want to safely incorporate options into their portfolios.

Sixty-three percent of men under thirty aren't even attempting to date anymore. One in seven young men are NEETs, neither working nor studying nor training for anything, just existing alone with screens. Galloway explains how we got here with uncomfortable precision. Online dating condensed human worth into brutal metrics like "six feet, six figures," which describes exactly two percent of available men. Meanwhile, every traditional venue where men could demonstrate excellence over time has evaporated. They're not going to church, not showing up to offices, not in classrooms where someone might notice they're funny, kind, outstanding at what they do. The algorithms figured out they can monetize every second they keep a young man staring at a screen instead of living in the actual world, and young men are uniquely vulnerable to this because of biology, less developed impulse control, higher susceptibility to dopamine addiction. Why face the rejection and effort of making friends when Reddit offers connection without risk? Why navigate workplace politics when you can trade crypto from your bedroom? Why pursue romance when porn is right there?Galloway isn't offering easy solutions because there aren't any yet. He's diagnosing something that should terrify us. Forty percent of the S&P 500 by market value is now AI-related companies whose algorithms, not through malice but through optimization, have figured out how to sequester young men from their relationships and monetize that isolation. Women, celebrated for walking away at the first red flag and conditioned to demand perfection, are simultaneously dealing with a dating pool that's shrinking not because men are unworthy but because they've stopped showing up entirely. This isn't about blame. It's about understanding that trillion-dollar economic incentives are arrayed against human connection, and young men, through a combination of biological vulnerability and vanishing social infrastructure, are losing that fight. Galloway predicts you'll start visibly noticing fewer young men at malls, events, anywhere public. They're going to be alone in rooms with screens, and we're all going to live with the consequences of that.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
