There may be observers who know the technology industry better than veteran journalist Eric Savitz, but there aren't many. Eric worked at Barron's Magazine as an investment and technology reporter for 24 years — spread over three stints. He began there in October 1988, honing his craft under the direction of the legendary editor and columnist Alan Abelson. In this wide-ranging conversation, you'll hear Eric's views on successful investing in technology stocks, what errors to avoid, and what opportunities still exist for tech startups. Since July of this year, Eric has assumed the position of corporate editor-in-chief of General Motors. As he explains, these days, under the hoods of cars and trucks, consumers will discover sophisticated chips and computers worthy of the best technology companies. Whether you're an investor, a business owner, or a journalism buff, this is one conversation you'll want to pull to the curb to listen to closely and take notes. Monday Morning Radio is hosted by the father-son duo of Dean and Maxwell Rotbart.

Andrew Savitz joins the Medical Alley Podcast to share how his company, Spirituwell, is trying to bridge the gap between conventional medicine and spiritual well-being. He elaborates on the company's innovative practices, the challenges of navigating the evolving health landscape, and the importance of addressing spiritual health alongside physical health. Savitz discusses the motivation behind starting Spirituwell and the key problems the company is trying to solve, including the lack of access to professional spiritual care, particularly in rural and underserved areas. Savitz explains how Spirituwell's telehealth model aims to expand access to spiritual care throughout the healthcare continuum, beyond the traditional hospital and hospice settings. He also touches on the important role chaplains can play in addressing existential distress and supporting the mental health of patients, as well as the challenges of integrating spiritual care into the mainstream healthcare landscape.Send us a message!Follow Medical Alley on social media on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

“Better than any argument is to rise at dawn and pick dew-wet red berries in a cup.” Wisdom like this from Wendell Berry seems to flow naturally from people who stay close to the dirt. Along the way, I’ve learned to pay attention for opportunities to share time with people like this. Recently, I had the honor of sitting down with Becky Savitz, a friend and acclaimed gardener, to hear how seeing time differently opened the door for her to fall in love with life outside. Join us for a wonderful conversation on sabbath, leaning in and the unexpected way TikTok is bringing Becky together with new friends around the world.

How do our biological systems work together to respond to chronic stress? What do these responses mean for early learning and lifelong health? And when we say that early experiences matter, what do we mean by early? This episode of The Brain Architects podcast addresses all these questions and more! Contents Podcast Panelists Additional Resources Transcript To kick off this episode, Center Director Dr. Jack Shonkoff describes the body's stress response system, how our biological systems act as a team when responding to chronic stress, and the effects chronic stress can have on lifelong health. This is followed by a discussion among a panel of scientists including Dr. Nicki Bush (University of California-San Francisco), Dr. Damien Fair (University of Minnesota), and Dr. Fernando Martinez (University of Arizona). The panelists discuss how our bodies respond to adversity, inflammation's role in the stress response system, the effects of stress during the prenatal period and first few years after birth, and how we can use this science to prevent long-term impacts on our health.

WIHI - A Podcast from the Institute for Healthcare Improvement
Date: February 21, 2013Featuring: Norman E. Dascher, Jr., FACHE, CEO of Acute Care – Troy and Vice President, St. Peter’s Health Partners, Northeast Health (Troy, New York) Lucy A. Savitz, PhD, MBA, Senior Scientist, Institute for Healthcare Delivery Research, Intermountain Healthcare Katharine Luther, RN, MPM, Vice President, Hospital Portfolio Planning and Administration, Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Catherine Abbott, RN, MSN, Administrator, Performance Improvement, Hackensack University Medical Center (Hackensack, New Jersey) Here’s the rub about reducing health care costs to improve your hospital’s bottom line: The “old” solutions of cutting back on staff and services are shortsighted at best. The best solutions require delivering better care and getting rid of wasteful practices. Even getting bigger to achieve efficiencies and economies of scale won’t help in the long run; the new world pays for value over volume. And value involves care coordination that follows patients wherever they go, including after they leave your hospital.How to survive, and thrive, in this brave new world? This WIHI is the second installment of a focus this month on cost reduction strategies that marry the best ideas from quality improvement with sharpened-pencil, financial and business acumen. The discussion focuses on the work of two organizations — Northeast Health and Hackensack University Medical Center — and unpack how they, and some 58 other organizations that were part of IHI’s Impacting Cost + Quality initiative, are on track to save $43 million.Can your hospital leadership commit to reducing costs at least two percent over the next five years, while maintaining or improving quality? If you can’t make that commitment today, what would get you on the path to making it? WIHI host Madge Kaplan, with the help of IHI’s Kathy Luther and three dynamic hospital leaders and experts — Norm Dascher, Lucy Savitz, and Cathy Abbott — promise you a bold and bottom-line discussion.The following materials may also be of interest: Leaders challenged to reduce cost, deliver more.

How is sustainability better than CSR? Difference between CSR and Sustainability The difference between CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) and Sustainability lies in the vision, purpose and power for change behind each term. The problem with the term CSR is that in some countries it is used for philanthropy-cause related marketing, PR or for initiatives divorced from the core business objectives. CSR has also been used by companies as a tool to do good by supporting or investing in different causes that would create a good reputation. There is good CSR too and there are companies that have used CSR for transformative purpose. The concept of sustainability offers us a more holistic and ambitious management approach regarding the economic, environmental and social aspects and principles that have to become part of the way a company does business. Role of HR in Building a Sustainable Company Working with Romanian companies on sustainability for the last 9 years, Ioana has noticed that sustainability is rarely integrated into HR operations. The HR departments are not involved in the planning of initiatives or strategies related to sustainability. It is a topic at international level, how HR can support the planning and implementation of sustainability, but it is not the same scenario in Romania. The connection between HR and sustainability has been overlooked. If a company is trying to make sustainability a part of core business, they cannot overlook human resources. Sustainability is a process of change in which a company’s strategies, activities, systems and organisational culture are re-shaped. HR is an agent of change that can help create the systems that are necessary for advancing sustainability in the company. It is important that the HR department and the HR managers understand that they have a key-role in integrating sustainability into core HR operations. For example by: recruiting people that have the right skills making sustainability part of the performance appraisals and incentive schemes finding out what motivates employees to work on sustainability creating employee engagement programs making sustainability part of training and leadership programs The change should start from the top management of an organisation. Impact on Daily Life Ioana recycles, saves energy and buys as much as possible local products. She buys ecological products for cleaning. She avoids plastic by using water filter and her own shopping bag when doing the groceries. Nature Memory Ioana’s favourite nature memory is of time spent at her grandparents’ house, in a mountain region, during her childhood. The forest was just a few metres from the doorstep. Ioana spent a lot of time in the forest, walking, picking forest fruit, mushrooms and herbal plants of the seasons. She would collect resin from the bark of trees, imagining that it was a precious resource she could sell. The forest was like a playground and nature was an important part of her childhood. It was one of the reasons that she was a very happy child. In later years, the experience of seeing her favourite childhood forest getting changed due to human activity, like uncontrolled logging, woke up the environmentalist in Ioana. It made her learn more about environment protection and sustainability in general. Her connection with nature in childhood influenced the choices she made in her adult life. Takeaway from this Episode There is no shortcut or easy way to build up a sustainable company or organisation. It is a challenging process, and requires change and having the right people on board. However, once started, the benefits will come. The satisfaction of creating a business for the future, a business that takes care of our planet and it’s people are other benefits of a sustainable business. Ioana most admires People who show leadership and get out of their comfort zone for a greater purpose.

I had the chance to sit down with Marc after his Kitchen Table Gallery show last fall. We got into painting portraits of Philly locals, his Coal Country documentary, and some dark & twisted Philly history! Here's a brief description from our website about the paintings shown at KTG: Brodzik's paintings are a complex response to the environment of his youth, the direction of his education, and our market driven culture. He seeks to give voice to a society that is cajoled by fear to live beyond its means through signs, slogans and logos. By adopting these very images of "product" he subverts the message of pro-consumerism.

AUDIO TITLE: Episode #21 – Jodi Savitz Jenn T Grace: You are listening to the Gay Business and Marketing Made Easy Podcast, Episode 21. Intro: Welcome to the Gay Business and Marketing Made Easy Podcast where you'll learn how to do business with and market to the LGBT community in an authentic and transparent way. We're talking about the $790 billion lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender community. We'll help you grow your business, gain market share and impact your bottom line. And now your host - she's an entrepreneur, a marketing maven and an advocate for the LGBT business community. Jenn, with two N's, T. Grace. Jenn T Grace: Well hello and welcome to Episode 21 of the podcast. I am your host, Jenn Grace. And today, Happy Halloween, just want to throw it out there. Happy Halloween to all of you. I am, as you are listening to this, I am actually en route flying back from Minneapolis, Minnesota, after having just attended the Out and Equal Workplace Advocate's annual summit. And the workplace summit is amazing, and I believe in Episode 20 I talked a little bit about it. So I just want to throw out there that I am probably blogging away like a maniac right now while you are listening to this podcast. So today I have a really packed episode for you. I had the great pleasure of talking with filmmaker, Jodi Savitz. She is currently working on a film called Girl on Girl. And it's a documentary about the invisible feminine lesbian. And as you're listening to this intro you might be thinking, 'Well what does this have to do with business?' And throughout the entire interview, we end up talking about workplace related issues and business issues, and how being an invisible feminine lesbian plays into all of the different facets of your life and being out at work is one of them. So this interview is absolutely fantastic, and I really encourage you to take some sort of action after having listened to this interview, even if it's just going to the website and watching the trailer for the film; because it really looks like it's going to be a powerful film. So I highly encourage you to do that. And as you know, every episode you can find on the website at www.JennTGrace.com/021, for episode number 21. So before I dive into the interview with Jodi, I do want to remind you of the course that launched in late September called 'How to Authentically Market to the Gay Community.' And if you are looking for additional information on this course I would highly encourage you to stop by www.AuthenticGayMarketing.com, and you can see all the information about the course itself; but essentially it's a ten-part course with ten specific steps to take in order to really understand and learn how to communicate with the LGBT community. And then how to appropriately market to the LGBT community with of course the end goal being for you to dramatically increase the bottom line of your business by targeting this very loyal nic...

Jackie Savitz, Pollution Campaign Director for Ocena. Jacqueline Savitz to the Obama Administration’s Decision to Lift the Deepwater Drilling Moratorium This is an incredibly disconcerting and unjustified move, that could open the door for the next great oil disaster. Oil spills are common. The question is not whether there will be another spill but when. While the recent BP spill occurred on a well permitted by a previous administration, and based on regulations that were not devised by the Obama administration, that will not be the case with the next spill. When the Department of Interior devised its three criteria to be met before the moratorium would be lifted, they seemed reasonable. The industry would have to demonstrate that it could prevent a spill, contain a spill and respond to a spill. But those criteria have not been satisfied and therefore, lifting the moratorium is premature. Whether new safety requirements will be sufficient and whether they will be followed are open questions. Another spill could happen tomorrow, next week or next month, and it may not be easy to contain, as we saw with the BP spill. .http://na.oceana.org Listen >>> Email us your questions for the guests to onair@sustainable1000.com, Tweet us at @sustainable1000, IM on Gtalk @ vannShane or call-in your questions or comments to (347)996-3601.
