De Dekkingsgraad is de tweewekelijkse nieuwspodcast van Pensioen Pro. Daarin lichten redacteuren van Pensioen Pro in ongeveer een half uur het belangrijkste pensioennieuws van de afgelopen periode toe. In deze aflevering: De Nederlandsche Bank stelt dit jaar nog hogere eisen aan de netto-profijteffecten in de invaarplannen van pensioenfondsen dan vorig jaar, stelt een aantal consultants. Opmerkelijk, want actuarissen hadden begin dit jaar al kritiek, zegt hoofdredacteur Maarten van Wijk. DNB ontkent. Hoofdrapporteur Boeselager van het Europees Parlement wil dat pensioenfondsen met meer dan €1 mrd vermogen minstens 2% daarvan gaan beleggen in durfkapitaal. Dat moet in de herziene versie van de Europese richtlijn voor pensioenfondsen komen te staan, Iorp 2, vertelt redacteur Sameer van Alfen. En volgens verzekeraar ASR is het voor pensioenfondsen met een flexibele premieregeling en verzekeraars vaak niet interessant om een exclusieve overeenkomst te sluiten voor het uitvoeren van de vaste uitkering. Redacteur Rien Meijer legt uit hoe dit zit. Presentatie: Ilse AkkermansSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

De Dekkingsgraad is de tweewekelijkse nieuwspodcast van Pensioen Pro. Daarin lichten redacteuren van Pensioen Pro in ongeveer een half uur het belangrijkste pensioennieuws van de afgelopen periode toe. In deze aflevering: Voorlopig komt er geen uitsluitsel over extra instrumenten om te sturen op koopkracht in het nieuwe pensioenstelsel, blijkt uit een Kamerbrief van minister Vijlbrief. Redacteur Olaf Boschman vertelt waarom koopkrachtbehoud in het nieuwe stelsel niet zomaar is geregeld. Minister Vijlbrief stelt daarnaast een uiterste poging te doen om een oplossing te vinden voor mensen die door een baanwissel doorsneecompensatie mislopen. Waaruit die poging bestaat, vertelt Olaf ook. Een aantal werkgevers is hiermee ook aan de slag en probeert compensatie te regelen voor werknemers die worden ontslagen, vertelt redacteur Rien Meijer. En de dalende rente pakt ook in de solidaire premieregeling slecht uit, blijkt uit de kwartaalresultaten van de grote pensioenfondsen PFZW, PMT en BpfBouw. De fondsen kwamen voor het eerst sinds hun invaren op 1 januari met cijfers. Wat die betekenen voor de deelnemers, legt redacteur Sameer van Alfen uit.

Many practices keep looking for more new patients when the bigger problem is the gap between what gets diagnosed and what actually gets scheduled, completed, and collected. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Sameer Bhasin of CareCredit about building reliable, measurable systems that make unscheduled dentistry visible, tighten the diagnose-to-schedule pathway, and improve follow-through so patients get the care they need without adding more chaos to the schedule. You'll learn how to create an actionable dashboard, protect procedure time, clean up revenue cycle habits, and use technology to amplify (not replace) your workflow. Listen to Episode 1050 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Most private practices aren't short on diagnosing treatment; they're short on conversion and follow-through.Unscheduled dentistry should be broken down into a dashboard by timeframe, procedure type, value tier, and patient readiness so it becomes actionable.A strong diagnose-to-schedule pathway requires consistent handoffs, clear “why now,” and protecting schedule time for the procedures you want to do.Production on paper isn't the same as performance because value is often lost in handoffs, case acceptance, scheduling, and collections.Clean revenue cycle discipline includes early benefit verification, collecting patient portions appropriately, and consistent weekly AR and aging-claims follow-up.Technology should amplify an existing workflow (analytics, reminders, online scheduling guardrails) rather than replace human follow-up and accountability.As a benchmark, about 10% of patients should be applying for third-party financing to ensure financial options are part of the process, not an afterthought.Snippets:00:00 Unscheduled dentistry is the opportunity most practices aren't working.08:23 How to build an unscheduled treatment dashboard by time, procedure, and value tier.11:52 Standardizing the diagnose-to-schedule pathway and creating urgency with the “next best appointment.”15:40 What a “clean revenue cycle” looks like and why write-offs are a major hidden problem.18:05 Technology amplifies a workflow; it doesn't replace one.20:10 The metrics Samir watches, including the 10% financing application benchmark.23:10 The “Great Wall of China” myth and how misconceptions show up in practice systems.26:55 Approval rate realities and why you can't get approvals without applications.33:00 What a CareCredit practice review reveals and how it's used to find opportunities.35:45 A simple action plan: pull the last 90 days of unscheduled dentistry and call the top 20 patients.Guest Bio/Guest Resources:Sameer Bhasin, Vice President of Strategic Alliances at CareCredit, is responsible for working with dentistry's key opinion leaders and educators to gather the latest insights and trends. Previously, Mr. Bhasin held positions as a CareCredit Practice Development Manager and Regional Sales Manager where he acquired more than a decade of front line practice experience. He holds both a Bachelor's Degree and Master's Degree in Business and an MBA in Healthcare Administration.Email: sbhasin@carecredit.comSocial: https://www.facebook.com/sameer.bhasin/https://www.instagram.com/sam.i.am.329/More Helpful Links for a Better Practice & a Better Life:The Best Practices Show: https://www.actdental.com/podcast/Best Practices Association: https://www.actdental.com/bpaUpcoming Events & Workshops: https://www.actdental.com/events/Smile Source: https://www.smilesource.com/Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.comSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com

In this episode of The Jason De Sousa Show, we sit down with Sameer Chopra, Head of Research at CBRE, to stress-test the future of Australian real estate. We dive into the "Two-Speed Market" where Perth and Brisbane are surging ahead of the majors, and we ask the tough question: can the market sustain a forecast 30% rise in rents and values by 2030, or is it on a collision course with an affordability ceiling? We also explore the "Global Intelligence Crisis"—a viral hypothetical from Citrini Research. Could AI structurally impair the white-collar incomes that underpin the mortgage market? Or will robotics be the silver bullet that finally breaks the construction cost bottleneck?

De Dekkingsgraad is de tweewekelijkse nieuwspodcast van Pensioen Pro. Daarin lichten redacteuren van Pensioen Pro in ongeveer een half uur het belangrijkste pensioennieuws van de afgelopen periode toe. In deze aflevering: Een brand in een datacenter in Almere heeft pensioenfondsen PFZW, PMT, Stipp, Schilders en Koopvaardij geraakt. De circa zes miljoen deelnemers van deze PGGM-fondsen konden niet bellen of inloggen. Redacteur Rien Meijer vertelt wat er aan de hand was. De invoering van de Wtp betekent dat het verlagen van hypotheekschulden met pensioengeld een reële mogelijkheid wordt. Hoofdredacteur Maarten van Wijk licht het proefschrift toe, waarin dit is uitgewerkt. De keuze van ABP om de aandelenportefeuille ontwikkelde markten voortaan te beleggen tegen een op maat gemaakte index leidde in 2025 tot acherblijvende resultaat. Redacteur en beleggingsspecialist Sameer van Alfen bespreekt hoe dat komt en hoe ernstig het is. Presentatie: Tjibbe HoekstraSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My guest today is Sameer Gulati, Chief Product Officer and President of Zen Business and someone who spent more than two decades at the intersection of technology, financial services and real-world business building. Sameer isn't just thinking about products. He's thinking about outcomes. At Zen Business, he's helping re-imagine what it actually means to start and run a business today by bringing together AI embedded finance and automation into a platform designed to give small business owners a real shot at success. He's built his career across B2B, FinTech and business development, consistently focused on one thing: how to create, scale and transform, not in theory, but in practice. And what stands out about Sameer is that he doesn't chase trends. He builds systems that make those trends actually work for people.

Is there a more important relationship in our industry than that between the CMO and the CFO?Given the macroeconomic environment – war, inflation, AI threatening to upend entire industries – how are the the interests of financial leaders changing as they relate to marketing?Nimmi Shah is a consultant finance director for the media, marketing and PR industries and has worked with major agency groups.Sameer Modha is the outcome measurement innovation lead at ITV, and one of the individuals spearheading the broadcasters' in-development outcome measurement solution, Lantern.The duo join host Jack Benjamin to discuss how financial pressures are having downstream effects on media investment, why outcomes-driven measurement has emerged as the way forward in the boardroom, and how AI is leading to new opportunities and new conundrums for marketers.Is media still being spent on eyeballs?

De Dekkingsgraad is de tweewekelijkse nieuwspodcast van Pensioen Pro. Daarin lichten redacteuren van Pensioen Pro in ongeveer een half uur het belangrijkste pensioennieuws van de afgelopen periode toe. In deze aflevering: De invoering van het opnemen van een bedrag ineens is opnieuw uitgesteld. Het kan nu op zijn vroegst in 2029, blijkt uit de Voorjaarsnota. Dat is na de pensioentransitie. Redacteur Olaf Boschman vertelt waarom. De inflatie is de afgelopen vijf jaar onvoorspelbaarder geworden. Pensioenfondsen moeten bij de transitie naar het nieuwe stelsel daarom meer rekening houden met andere inflatiescenario’s, zegt kennisnetwerk Netspar. Hoe, legt hoofdredacteur Maarten van Wijk uit. En de Europese Commissie vindt dat pensioenfondsen een verplichte bewaarder moeten aanstellen. De Nederlandse regering en de Pensioenfederatie zijn kritisch. Hoe dat zit, vertelt redacteur Sameer van Alfen. Presentatie: Ilse AkkermansSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our conversation begins 7 minutes in - please feel free to skip the intro! In today's episode I'm talking with Sameer Patel about the strange intersection of paranormal research, consciousness, psychedelics and purpose. We start with the secret Pentagon program at Skinwalker Ranch and what it suggests about the relationship between so‑called “paranormal” phenomena and human consciousness. From there, we explore how non‑ordinary states—through psychedelics, meditation, yoga, rave culture and Kundalini awakening—can both heal and destabilise, especially when they bring old trauma and questions of meaning to the surface. Sameer shares his own journey from corporate and music-industry careers into a profound spiritual awakening, and we look at what it might mean to treat trauma healing and inner work as a form of collective evolution, rather than just a way to become “better worker bees” in the existing system. Sameer is a filmmaker and co-founder of the Kundalini Collective, an organisation established in 2018 to support individuals experiencing spiritual awakenings. His own awakening in 2006 profoundly changed his life, leading him to explore spiritual and shamanic cultures worldwide. Prior to this, Sameer worked in film finance but inspired by his transformation, he pursued a creative path, and his films have been acquired by Sony and Sky Arts. As a producer, he recently completed a British-Iranian feature adaptation of a Rainer Fassbinder film titled 'The Bitter Tears of Zahra Zand'. He is currently developing a documentary on ‘Non-Ordinary Transformative Experiences' and their implications. References: Books Skinwalkers at the Pentagon – James T. Lacatski, Colm A.

In this episode, Dr. Sameer Amin of L.A.

If you are tired of treating symptoms without real answers, this conversation challenges how you see modern medicine. You are invited to look beyond prescriptions and quick fixes and start asking why your body is reacting in the first place. Stress, lifestyle, and inflammation often sit at the center of gut issues like IBS, reflux, and chronic discomfort. You will hear why fiber, sleep, movement, and community matter more than most people realize. Rising gut disorders and colon cancer in younger adults make prevention and early awareness critical. Instead of labeling yourself by a diagnosis, you are encouraged to see symptoms as signals your body is asking for support. The focus turns to balance. You do not have to reject traditional care, but you can pair it with meditation, exercise, and simple nutrition habits that support long term digestive health. When you shift from fear to understanding, healing becomes more practical and personal.   In this Episode, You'll Learn: Differences in Healthcare and Root Causes Connection Between Stress and Gut Issues Balancing Medical and Non-Medical Treatments Probiotics and Overall Health Increasing Gut Issues and Cancer in Younger Individuals Colon Cancer and Symptoms Breaking Bad News to Patients Approaching Health with a Different Perspective Personal Health Practices Simplifying Healthy Eating   About Dr. Sameer Islam: Dr. Sameer Islam is a West Texas native, growing up in Odessa, TX.

In this episode, Rory speaks with Sameer Munshi, America's Behavioral Science and Simulation Leader at EY, about how behavioral science and AI-powered simulation are transforming the way financial firms test ideas, understand client behavior, and make strategic decisions. Sameer shares his journey from product development at Merrill Lynch to building applied behavioral science teams at EY, where he helps organizations design experiments that improve adoption, engagement, and real-world outcomes. He explains how AI simulation can recreate synthetic populations to test messaging, pricing strategies, and client interactions before they are deployed, shifting firms from guessing what clients might do to predicting how they will actually behave. They also explore the growing gap between what people say and what they do, why traditional research methods often fall short, and how behavioral insights can help advisors communicate more effectively in a rapidly changing world. Want to know how AI simulation could help advisors test strategies before implementing them with real clients? Curious how behavioral science can help financial professionals design better conversations and decisions? Find out the answers to these questions and more in this fascinating conversation with Sameer Munshi.

This is a release from the terrific show Peacemongers (Fredshetsarna), a Swedish anti-imperialist podcast.  The episodes features Henry Hakamaki and Salvatore Engel-Di Mauro discussing their book translation of Communism - The Highest Stage of Ecology. Be sure to subscribe to their podcast and/or their YouTube!  Below are the shownotes from their episode posting: In this session of Peacemongers we had the honor of having Salvatore Engel-Di Mauro and Henry Hakamäki on, the translators of Guillaume Suing's "Communism, the highest state of ecology" from iskra books. We dive into the different parts of the book and a surrounding discussion about ecology, biology and socialism. We explore the ecological experiences of Cuba established in the 90's, the so-called "special period" after the overthrow of its ally and trading partner the Soviet Union. What contradictions there are within Cuba at that point and its conditions for realizing a transformation on a massive scale. We discuss the not so linear history of the Soviet Union through the lens of ecological development. A country often demonized as ecologically destructive in a totalizing manner, while the historical data throws a wrench in that narrative. The book also delves into a discussion about biology and genetics, how scientific theories are politicized in the polemic of the sides in the cold war and why the marxist philosophy of dialectical materialism is useful for understanding evolution and biology. On the topic of this book we discuss the relationship between imperialism and ecology, history and science. How research is weaponized, weather historical or scientific to fit the narrative of the vampire like beast of capitalism and fascism. This is a quite long, sometimes challenging subject we found very educational and interesting, we hope that you will too. A big thanks to our guests Salvatore and Henry for coming on. You can find the book at https://www.iskrabooks.org/communism-the-highest-stage-of-ecology This as well as many other fantastic books there are all available as PDF for free but we encourage you to support their work by buying some beautiful books. For swedes who are interested in iskra books, email bokkallarenorebro(AT)gmail.com for what you are looking for and I'll try to get it in my next order from iskra.

In this episode of Smart Franchising, Dan Rowe sits down with Sameer Malhotra, founder of Cafe Spice, to unpack one of the most powerful—and overlooked—growth levers in franchising: co-packing. What began as a family-run Indian restaurant business evolved into a national operation supplying sauces, grains, entrées, and ready-to-eat meals to Whole Foods, Aramark, Sodexo, and emerging restaurant brands across the country.Dan and Sameer break down how centralized production lowers labor, prep, cleaning, equipment, and real estate costs while improving consistency, food safety, and unit economics. They discuss what makes a brand “co-packer ready,” why many chef-driven concepts struggle to scale, and how simplifying menus and processes unlocks faster, more profitable expansion—without sacrificing flavor or authenticity.The conversation also dives into minimum order quantities, distributor relationships, tariffs, sourcing challenges, and where founders should start when outsourcing production.Drawing on Dan's experience scaling brands like Five Guys, Qdoba, and The Halal Guys, this episode delivers practical guidance for founders, franchisees, and operators looking to scale smarter, protect their brand, and grow with confidence.

Running a successful restaurant is hard. Scaling one without losing what made it special is even harder.This week on Two by Two, hosts Praveen Gopal Krishnan and Rohin Dharmakumar talk to two people who are deep in that fight: Sameer Seth, founder and CEO of Hunger Inc. Hospitality (The Bombay Canteen, O Pedro, Veronica's, Papa's, Bombay Sweet Shop), and Karan Kapur, Executive Director of K Hospitality Group (Copper Chimney, Bombay Brasserie, The Irish House).The conversation starts with why restaurants are so difficult to scale. Real estate is expensive and hard to find. Tastes change across cities as India isn't one market, it's several. And unlike other businesses, restaurants have to produce and serve the product at the exact same moment, which makes consistency brutal.Sameer and Karan walk through the transition every restaurateur has to make: from artist (creating the magic of the first restaurant) to scientist (building systems that let you do it again and again without losing the soul). They talk about diversification and why Sameer kept all his brands in Mumbai while expanding formats. Also why Karan thinks the big inflection point won't come until India's GDP per capita hits $5,000, which he estimates will be around 2032.They then discuss micro-dining. Pappas serves just 12 people, four times a week, and it works because Veronica's next door serves 300 and pays the rent. They talk about why Bombay Sweet Shop started as a Willy Wonka-style mithai factory. And they tackle the bigger question in the end: in an age where everything comes to your door in 10 minutes, what will keep people going out to restaurants?______This episode was produced by Uddantika Kashyap and mixed and mastered by Rajiv CN, our resident sound engineer.If you liked this episode of Two by Two, please share it with your friends, family and colleagues who would be interested in listening. And if you have more thoughts on the discussion, we'd love to hear your arguments as well. You can write to us at twobytwo@the-ken.com or comment below.

In this conversation, Ismail and Sameer discuss the concept of the 'white belt mentality'—the idea of approaching life and career with a mindset of continuous learning and humility. They explore how this mentality can lead to personal and professional growth, the importance of admitting what you don't know, and the value of being open to learning from others. The discussion also touches on the challenges of ego in the workplace, the necessity of reinvention in one's career, and the significance of comparing oneself to others in a constructive way.Key Moments The white belt mentality encourages continuous learning and humility.Admitting what you don't know is a strength, not a weakness.Ego can hinder career progression and personal growth.Reframing skill gaps as opportunities fosters a positive mindset.Every role is a learning opportunity; embrace it.Being open about your learning needs builds trust with colleagues.Reinvention is essential, especially during career transitions.Measure your growth against your own past, not others.A culture of learning promotes collaboration and trust.The white belt mentality is crucial for navigating career pivots.Feel free to send us an email at info@emotionalintelligents.com and share your thoughts or visit us at https://linktr.ee/emotionalintelligents Send us a text

For many ambitious founders, bootstrapping is a slow death. After building a profitable, high seven-figure SaaS company for 10 years, Sameer Narkar realized his self-funded model was no longer enough to win. In this interview, Sameer explains why the AI revolution is forcing successful bootstrapped companies into raising funds to move faster. He breaks down his decision to seek investment after a decade of profitability, why he believes thinking about an exit is a distraction from building a great product, and how he plans to use the new capital to "buy growth" by investing in experienced sales teams and partnerships rather than burning cash on ads.

In this insightful episode of the Emotional Intelligence Podcast, hosts Sameer and Ismail dive deep into the delicate balance leaders must strike between setting a firm vision and exercising emotional intelligence (EQ) to effectively lead their teams. They explore how autonomy and flexibility impact staff anxiety and performance, the importance of clear, measurable goals, and how leaders can use EQ skills to communicate vision, manage emotions, and motivate diverse team members.KEY TAKEAWAYSAllowing team members to retain control over aspects of their workday reduces anxiety and resistance. Leaders should balance autonomy with clear vision and goals.Effective leadership requires setting concrete, measurable goals and a consistent vision that the team can rally behind.Tailor your communication style to individual team members' motivations—whether financial incentives, process stability, or mental peace—to gain buy-in.Leaders must manage their own emotions to remain calm and effective, especially when facing negativity or resistance.While the ultimate goals should remain firm, leaders should allow flexibility in how tasks are accomplished to accommodate team members' needs.Making firm, fair, and timely decisions based on available information helps maintain momentum and trust.Transparent communication about the reasons behind decisions and processes helps teams understand and accept necessary changes.EQ is not about being “nice” but about being effective in achieving goals and leading people.Like parenting, leadership requires knowing when to be firm and when to be flexible to guide people toward success.Mastering emotional intelligence equips leaders with a powerful tool to influence and motivate their teams effectively.Feel free to send us an email at info@emotionalintelligents.com and share your thoughts or visit us at https://linktr.ee/emotionalintelligents Send us a text

We hosted an emergency livestream with Hala Sabbah of the Sameer Project back on July 21st to talk about the absolutely horrific situation in Gaza as a result of the US-funded and supported Israeli enacted genocide. Since conditions have not changed substantially, I wanted to also make sure to get a lightly edited version of that conversation out to our audio podcast feed. Just a reminder that due to our own limitations these days most of our work is on our YouTube page, where we host multiple conversations per week.  This is our third conversation with Hala Sabbah from the Sameer Project since its founding during this genocide. We have a playlist with all three.  You can support the Sameer Project via their linktree which we will include in the show description as well Another conversation we held this week that I will link in the show description is our interview of Nora Barrows-Friedman of the Electronic Intifada, which we just hosted on Monday.  Please continue to do what you can, wherever you can, to support people in Gaza and to put political pressure on all of those complicit in this genocide to make their position untenable. Tomorrow, Thursday August 7th at 10 AM EDT we will host a livestream with socialist and Pro-Palestine barrister Franck Magennis. We encourage people to tune into that conversation as well. And on Monday August 11th we'll have a livestream with Abdaljawad Omar once again.
