The wholesale electricity market has changed plenty in recent years, and if future projects are any indication, more change is on the way in the decade-plus ahead.On this episode of Alternative Power Plays, Buchanan's Alan Seltzer and Brattle's Metin Celebi welcome colleague Andrew Levitt, a Senior Consultant at Brattle. Levitt is an expert in wholesale electricity policy, focused on evolving system needs. He's an expert in market design for emerging resources and has worked with utilities, regional transmission organizations (RTOs), and regulators.During the discussion, the three get into the weeds on an American Clean Power-commissioned report Brattle published that provides a roadmap for RTOs on energy storage market design. Conventional market design is very limiting for new technologies, specifically batteries, and the report focuses on why the RTOs of PJM, MISO and NYISO are strong candidates for reform. They also talk about why California Independent System Operator (CISO) and Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) remain leading examples of battery storage deployment and what has made them successful. Finally, Levitt ends the conversation with insights on what changes need to be made to other RTOs to make energy storage deployment possible.To learn more about Brattle, visit: https://www.brattle.com/To learn more about Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney, visit: www.bipc.comTo learn more about Alan Seltzer, visit: https://www.bipc.com/alan-seltzerTo learn more about Metin Celebi, visit: https://www.brattle.com/experts/metin-celebi/

MONEY FM 89.3 - Prime Time with Howie Lim, Bernard Lim & Finance Presenter JP Ong
In recent years, weight-loss drugs have exploded in popularity with Ozempic in particular being hailed by some as a “miracle”. Originally developed to treat patients with Type 2 diabetes, Ozempic’s side effect of appetite suppression has made it widely used and some argue that it is widely misused for the purpose of losing weight. So, with the rising demand for these drugs among people without diabetes and endorsements by A-list celebrities, are we witnessing a medical revolution or will this shortcut cause even more problems for people who are obese or overweight? On The Hot Seat, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Dr Sue-Anne Toh, Co-Founder, CEO, and Medical Director of NOVI Health and Adjunct Associate Professor, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore and Dr Shanker Pasupathy, Senior Consultant and Medical Director, Digestive Centre, Mount Elizabeth Hospital, to find out whether the benefits of weight loss drugs are worth the risk.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Episode 424 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Kamran Bokhari, Senior Director at the New Lines Institute for Strategy & Policy, who has served in the U.S. State Department and as a Senior Consultant with the World Bank. Bokhari first appeared on the podcast shortly after the October 7th attacks to discuss the violence ignited by Hamas, the nature and scope of Iranian involvement, and how various regional actors exploited the growing disorder to their advantage, as the Biden administration struggled to stabilize a region on the brink of another major war. In subsequent appearances, Bokhari has provided the Hidden Forces audience with critical context for understanding U.S.-Israeli and Iranian strategic aims and limitations, the interests and constraints of other regional states (including Saudi Arabia and Turkey), how the events in the Middle East are perceived in Beijing and Moscow, and how the situation may evolve from here. The broader conflict with Iran, which has consistently framed these discussions, has now directly involved the United States following its recent deployment of fourteen 30,000-pound bombs targeting three Iranian nuclear sites: the Fordow Uranium Enrichment Plant, the nuclear facility in Natanz, and the Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center. What happens next—and whether the White House's actions will ultimately prove beneficial to America's long-term strategic objectives—forms the central focus of this two-hour conversation. In the first hour, Bokhari and Kofinas update listeners on recent developments, assessing the initial successes and failures of U.S. and Israeli strategic planners, the Iranian response, immediate risks to the United States and its allies, and how this war is likely to reshape the economic and security order of the Middle East over the next five years. In the second hour, Demetri and Kamran widen their aperture to examine how the conflict will affect the economic and military imperatives of the United States and China, along with their respective alliances and trading networks. They also discuss the potential economic repercussions and secondary impacts resulting from America's attack on Iran. The episode concludes with an examination of best- and worst-case scenarios, ranging from a new investment supercycle in the Middle East to the deployment of battlefield nuclear weapons and heightened risks of international terrorism in the United States and Europe.

On our Singapore Home Brew segment on the Saturday Mornings Show hosted by Glenn van Zutphen: In this episode, we delve into Singapore’s pivotal role in the global fight against Alzheimer’s disease, spotlighting the recent approval of LEQEMBI® by the Singapore Health Sciences Authority. Clinically proven to slow disease progression in early-stage patients, LEQEMBI® is a huge leap forward for treating symptoms and modifying the course of the disease in some patients. This milestone comes as more than 92,000 people in Singapore currently live with dementia, a number expected to rise sharply in the coming years. As the only Southeast Asian site in the international clinical trial, National University Hospital of Singapore played a key part in this breakthrough, with promising results confirmed in the Asian sub-analysis. Joining us to unpack this development are two leading voices in neurology and aging: Professor Christopher Chen, Visiting Consultant at National University Hospital and Director of the Memory, Ageing and Cognition Centre, and Associate Professor Adeline Ng, Senior Consultant in Neurology at the National Neuroscience Institute. They offer insights not just from a medical perspective, but also from the institutional frontlines where science meets healthcare policy and patient care. We explore how this treatment could transform the future for patients and caregivers in Singapore—offering more time, more clarity, and renewed hope.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Japan's Top Business Interviews Podcast By Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Previously Terii was Talent and Change-Asia Pacific head for British American Tabacco; Executive Officer and Vice-President, Business Engagement Leader-Special Projects, MetLife; Talent Partner APAC-Director UBS; Senior Consultant, Human Partners/Citadel Consulting; Organization Development Executive British American Tabacco Japan. He has a BA from Macalester College and an MBA from McGill University. · “You can't change Japan, so you're the one that's going to need to change.” · “If you say something, you've got to follow through with it—that's how you build trust.” · “I believe in uplifting the team more than the team executing my directives.” · “Patience doesn't mean doing nothing; it means putting in the time to build understanding.” · “Feedback means you care—if you stop giving feedback, you've stopped caring about their development.” Terii approaches leadership in Japan through the lens of authenticity, patience, and servant leadership. His cross-cultural background and career in multiple industries provide him with a nuanced view of leadership dynamics, but it is his ability to adapt to the Japanese context that defines his success. In Japan, he recognises that building rapport and trust takes significantly longer than in other markets like Singapore or Hong Kong. This delay, however, is not a barrier but a gateway—he invests heavily in relationships and sees trust as something earned through consistent action and personal engagement. He stresses the importance of understanding before implementing change. Entering a new industry, Terii refrained from immediate restructuring. Instead, he observed, listened, and built relationships with stakeholders at every level. By not coming in as the outsider intent on overhauling everything, he earned credibility and buy-in. He believes in creating a culture where feedback is delivered constructively and mistakes are viewed as learning opportunities, not grounds for punishment. Trust, for him, is built on follow-through, consistency, and psychological safety. He makes an intentional effort to have his team's back, especially when things go wrong, and avoids public reprimands. Emotional control and a steady demeanour are key to maintaining trust—he's acutely aware that employees are constantly reading their leader's signals. Terii has driven Hilton's cultural transformation in Japan by focusing on both hygiene factors, such as leave policies and compensation, and emotional engagement through peer recognition and celebration of human milestones. Under his leadership, Hilton Japan rose from being unranked to third best place to work in the country and number one in hospitality. He values grassroots input, launching Gemba-level focus groups to surface insights from the frontline. For new leaders in Japan, his advice is clear: be patient, don't expect to change the country—change yourself. Invest time in relationships, identify internal influencers, and adapt communication for clarity and resonance. Above all, leadership for Terii is about dreaming big, inspiring others, and making things happen—with humility, empathy, and persistence.
Today, I'm excited to speak with Amy Wirtz, Senior Consultant with The Family Business Consulting Group. Amy works closely with families to identify their goals around values, ownership, and financial wealth, and helps them establish family offices, councils, and enterprise governance systems to support these goals. She served as a lawyer for 27 years, with the last 10 years practicing collaborative law. In addition, Amy is a trained mediator and skilled facilitator in conflict resolution, communication, and listening skills. She serves on multiple family business advisory boards and frequently teaches and speaks at business forums, including YPO, YPO Family Office, Private Company Governance Conference, and The Exit Planning Institute. In today's conversation, we'll zoom into generation-skipping trusts, which are both powerful and popular estate planning vehicles deployed by UHNW families and their advisors. We start with the basics, and Amy providing a definition of what generation-skipping trusts are and why are they so commonly utilized by families of wealth. Like all estate planning, risk management, and tax optimization strategies, there are both pros and cons and complexities associated with generation-skipping trusts. Amy talks about the long-term implications for families who establish and subsequently must live within these legal structures. Amy offers some practical tips and suggestions for families who are just starting to consider generation-skipping trusts, helping outline what they should know and beware, and how they should prepare the family for these structures. Amy then offers some pointers and advice for families who already have established generation-skipping trusts, sharing her insights into how they can live their lives in accordance with their goals and preferences while still managing and complying with the complexities of these existing legal structures. Please enjoy this deeply insightful conversation with one of the leading practitioners and consultants in the area of trust and estate planning for UHNW families.
In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, host Tony Schueth sits down with two of the industry's sharpest minds leading the charge to fix one of health IT's most persistent headaches: digital consent management. Janice Reese, Senior Consultant at Point-of-Care Partners and Program Manager for the FHIR at Scale Taskforce (FAST), and Mohammad Jafari, Co-Lead of FAST's Consent Work, offer an unflinching look at why consent is still so messy—and what it'll take to make it scalable, interoperable, and actually work for patients.The conversation kicks off with a reality check. While the question “Who can access what data and when?” might sound simple, it quickly falls apart in practice. Consent today is often paper-based, fragmented, non-interoperable, and rarely computable. Mohammad explains how even digitized forms—often scanned PDFs—are barely better than paper when it comes to machine-readability and cross-system portability. The burden lands on both sides: patients are stuck filling out redundant forms at every touchpoint, and providers face access barriers that can delay or limit care.But the episode isn't just a critique, it's a roadmap forward. Janice and Mohammad walk listeners through how FAST is approaching consent differently. Rather than focusing on the content of specific consents (like for research or behavioral health), the team is building a foundational infrastructure: a FHIR-based implementation guide that supports core consent operations, like requesting and revoking consent, delegating authority, and syncing consent decisions with digital identity and security frameworks. In other words, FAST is working on the plumbing that everyone else can build on.What sets this work apart is its real-world grounding. The team has prioritized broad stakeholder input through public calls and is actively incorporating lessons from pilot participants. Janice highlights that many organizations don't even know where to start—some have APIs, patient portals, or identity systems in place, but lack a cohesive strategy for managing consent. That's where FAST can help, not just with standards but with education and architectural guidance.The discussion also tackles the elephant in the room: policy fragmentation. With states having vastly different rules—sometimes even conflicting ones within the same region—scaling consent can feel impossible. But rather than trying to standardize policy, FAST is focused on standardizing structure. That means creating frameworks flexible enough to accommodate policy differences without hardcoding for each new rule change. Mohammad notes this kind of flexibility is key to making systems resilient and future-proof.Both guests agree that the time to act is now. Technology has matured, regulators are engaged, and public expectations for privacy and control over personal data are higher than ever. As Janice puts it, the stars are aligning. With CMS showing growing interest in digital identity and consent, and with FAST's security IG set to be required for FHIR under TEFCA in 2026, organizations can't afford to sit this one out.Whether you're a health plan, HIE, health tech vendor, or public health department, this episode makes one thing clear: scalable, patient-centered consent management isn't just possible—it's already underway. And FAST is laying the groundwork.To get involved, attend a public call (2nd & 4th Fridays at 1:00 Central/2:00 Eastern), reach out to Janice directly at janice.reese@pocp.com, or contact the team at fast@hl7.org. Now's the time to shape the future of consent—before it shapes you.
What's your firm really worth—and how do you unlock that value?

In this three part series, Exile Group CEO Dan Sheriff speaks to Gaby Buck, Founder & Managing Director, GKB Ventures and Chris Leeds, Senior Consultant at UKEF, on the ghosts of export finance past, present, and future. In today's episode, our guests discuss what the export finance market looks like today, and how this could impact the industry's future.
Here's something our CEO Bob Chapman recently wrote in a post on our Truly Human Leadership blog: The people our leaders lead, they do not “report to” that leader, they are within that leader's span of care. Just that simple deviation from the normal way of phrasing things completely changes the dynamic of the relationship. Per a Google search, the literal definition of “report to” someone is “to work under the supervision of or take instructions from someone who is in a higher position. It implies a hierarchical relationship where the person reporting is accountable to the individual they report to.” But when you talk about being within a leader's span of care, it helps to change the way leaders think. It suggests the sense of responsibility a leader should feel to those they lead. Our children do not “report to” us. Our spouses certainly don't. When we invite someone to join our team, we are bestowed with the awesome responsibility to provide the care and inspiration and support that that precious human being needs to become everything he or she was meant to be. As Bob says here, just a simple phrase like “span of care” can change our perspective as a leader. And this takes us to our conversation today. Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute is Barry-Wehmiller's consulting arm that specializes in helping other organizations unleash the extraordinary in their businesses and their people. They do this by helping those organizations identify, develop, and equip their leaders. On this podcast, Ben Huebner, a Senior Consultant at Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute is going to talk to a couple of leaders from Metlife, who I'm sure you've heard of. Since 1868, MetLife has been of the world's leading financial services companies, providing insurance, annuities, employee benefits and asset management to individuals and institutions around the world. Ben's conversation is with Anna Lavery, Vice President, Market Enablement and Andrea Douglas, Vice President, Regional Business Service & Implementation. The three talk about the work Chapman & Co has done with Metlife for a few years now, mainly with what Chapman & Co calls Truly Human Service and Truly Human Language. Notably, you'll hear the impact using the phrase “span of care” has made in their organization.

As we continue our conversation with Chelsea Laub and Haley Prophet, they share how their perspectives on health, success, and balance have shifted, revealing the power of emotional awareness, nervous system regulation, and redefining hustle culture.
