Podcasts about shortcuts

If influence sometimes feels uncomfortable or awkward, this is a fresh take that reframes it as collaboration rather than persuasion. In this Squiggly Shortcut, Sarah shares a practical, three-step approach to influencing with curiosity rather than control. Using the example of someone challenging the idea of squiggly careers, Sarah explores why pushing harder rarely works and why listening first is often your most powerful move. From opening up the conversation with genuine curiosity, to involving someone in shaping the solution, to landing on a payoff they actually care about, this episode is a simple guide to influencing in a way that feels thoughtful, not manipulative.Episode 538

Short Cuts said no. WNYC said no. Hell Gate said no. Even Transom said no. Finally, after about six months of pitching, Will Coley heard "Yes." Will regales us with his story of how he made it to "yes" with his pitch about public nudity on the latest Sound School.

With no official details revealed, speculation runs high. Could we see colorful, lower-cost MacBooks powered by A-series chips? M5 Pro and Max MacBook Pros? Updated iPads? The panel debates whether Apple may stage a staggered release week or unveil everything in a single coordinated announcement. The discussion shifts to Vision Pro, where rumors suggest Apple could demonstrate immersive Formula 1 experiences just days before the 2026 F1 season begins. With Apple's expanding sports footprint, including IMAX screenings of F1 races, the possibility of spatial sports broadcasting feels closer than ever. The panel also reviews VisionOS 26.4 beta updates, including refined UI elements, reorganized settings, early foveated streaming support for developers, and expanded 8K playback capabilities on newer hardware. iOS 26.4 beta brings one of the busiest update cycles in recent memory.

In this episode, I'm getting real about something I had to call myself out on — looking for shortcuts. As I've been growing my podcast agency and producing this show, I caught myself getting frustrated on weeks where I could only record one episode instead of five. And when I really sat with it, I realized that frustration wasn't about serving my audience better. It was about finding a way to do less work.That honest moment led me to a new mantra that I'm now living by: stop looking for shortcuts and do what's required.We talk about why shortcuts undermine growth, the difference between leverage and laziness, and what it really means to create impact. Because impact is not about projecting what you want to give people. It is about becoming the type of person who can deliver what they actually need.If you're a business coach or thinking about becoming one, this episode will challenge you to take an honest look at where you're cheating the process — and what it's really costing you.Stop looking for shortcuts.Do what is required.----Want to build a podcast that attracts high-ticket clients and grows your coaching business?

In this solo episode, Travis Chappell breaks down a powerful mindset shift that can change the trajectory of your life and business: the person you're becoming matters more than what you're building. Drawing from over 1,500 podcast episodes, 1,000+ interviews with top performers, and more than 200 books read in recent years, Travis shares why identity-based goals consistently outperform outcome-based goals—and how focusing on who you become leads to lasting success, fulfillment, and integrity. On this episode we talk about: Why identity-based goals are more powerful than outcome-based goals The danger of chasing success without becoming capable of sustaining it How short-term goal setting (like New Year's resolutions) keeps people stuck Real-life examples of integrity failures from chasing outcomes at any cost How to build habits that transform you into the person your goals require Top 3 Takeaways Identity over outcome. If you become the type of person capable of achieving your goals, the results will follow—and they'll last. Success without integrity always sends a bill. Shortcuts may bring temporary wins, but long-term character determines sustainable success. What you build can be lost. Who you become cannot. Develop the skills, habits, and mindset that make rebuilding possible no matter what happens. Notable Quotes "The person that you're becoming matters more than what you're building." "Success without integrity always sends a bill—and it's probably a bill you don't want to pay." "Instead of asking what do I want to accomplish, ask who do I need to become?"

Hedy AI in Echtzeit: Wie Julian Pscheid Meetings, Lernen und Gesundheit neu denkt   Wenn KI nicht nur im Nachgang Protokolle schreibt, sondern dich live im Gespräch unterstützt, verändert das die Spielregeln. Genau darüber sprechen wir mit Julian Pscheid, CEO von Hedy. Im Interview wird klar: Es geht nicht um einen weiteren Meeting-Bot, sondern um einen persönlichen KI-Begleiter, der dich in Echtzeit unterstützt… im Business, im Team und sogar beim Arzttermin.   Julian Pscheid auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/julianpscheid/   Echtzeit statt Rückspiegel: Was Hedy wirklich anders macht Viele KI-Tools arbeiten sequenziell. Du nimmst ein Meeting auf, lädst es später hoch und bekommst danach eine Zusammenfassung. Hedy dreht dieses Prinzip um. Die KI läuft während des Gesprächs auf deinem Device, verarbeitet Sprache in Echtzeit und gibt dir sofort Impulse, Zusammenfassungen oder Kontext aus früheren Gesprächen. Das bedeutet: Du kannst mitten im Meeting nachfragen, dir einen Recap holen oder dir relevante Informationen aus vergangenen Terminen anzeigen lassen. Gerade für Unternehmer, Berater und Coaches mit vielen Kundengesprächen entsteht dadurch ein enormer Vorteil. Kontext geht nicht mehr verloren. Ideen tauchen im richtigen Moment wieder auf. Und du bleibst mental präsent, statt gedanklich in deinen Notizen zu suchen. Persönliche Use Cases: Von Business-Meetings bis ADHS-Unterstützung Julian Pscheid beschreibt eindrucksvoll, wie unterschiedlich Hedy genutzt wird. Im Business hilft die KI, mehrere Kundenkontexte sauber auseinanderzuhalten und vor wichtigen Terminen eine kompakte Zusammenfassung der letzten Gespräche zu generieren. Ein weiterer Use Case: Brainstorming im Auto. Zehn Minuten Gedanken sortieren, Prioritäten klären und durch API-Integrationen landen die Aufgaben direkt im To-Do-Tool. Besonders spannend sind jedoch die persönlichen Anwendungsfälle. Menschen mit ADHS nutzen Hedy, um während Gesprächen den roten Faden nicht zu verlieren. Wer viele Arzttermine hat, erhält strukturierte Zusammenfassungen komplexer medizinischer Informationen. Hier wird deutlich: Ambient AI ist kein Spielzeug, sondern kann echte Lebensqualität steigern. Privacy by Design: Warum Vertrauen kein Add-on ist Ein zentrales Thema im Gespräch ist Datensicherheit. Gerade im europäischen Markt entscheidet Vertrauen über den Einsatz von KI. Hedy verfolgt einen klaren Ansatz: maximale Kontrolle für den Nutzer. Daten können lokal gespeichert werden, Cloud-Synchronisierung ist optional. Es gibt keine automatisch beitretenden Meeting-Bots, keine viralen Einladungsmechanismen und keine versteckte Datenspeicherung. Für Unternehmen bedeutet das: IT, Datenschutz und Geschäftsführung können gemeinsam entscheiden, wie Hedy integriert wird. Sogar eigene Cloud-Umgebungen oder eigene LLMs sind möglich. Diese Modularität macht das Tool besonders interessant für mittelständische Unternehmen und sensible Branchen. Vom Tool zur Community: Die erste Hedy Trainer-Ausbildung Ein Meilenstein war die weltweit erste dreistufige Hedy-Ausbildung mit Practitioner-, Master- und Trainer-Level. Über 100 Teilnehmer starteten im Practitioner-Track, 22 Trainer wurden am Ende zertifiziert. Für Julian Pscheid ist das ein entscheidender Schritt. Aus einzelnen Power-Usern entsteht eine Community von Multiplikatoren, die Hedy in Trainings, Coachings und Unternehmen weitertragen. Damit wird aus einem KI-Tool eine Bewegung. Eine Plattform, die nicht nur Funktionen liefert, sondern Kompetenzen aufbaut. Fazit: Ambient AI als persönlicher Leistungs-Booster Hedy ersetzt dich nicht. Und genau das ist der Punkt. Die Philosophie dahinter ist klar: kein Shortcut, kein Cheat-Code, sondern ein Werkzeug, das dich befähigt, in Gesprächen deine beste Version zu sein. Ob im Sales-Call, im Recruiting, im Coaching oder im Arztgespräch – Echtzeit-KI kann deine Wahrnehmung, Struktur und Entscheidungsqualität massiv verbessern. Wenn du bereit bist, KI nicht nur nachgelagert, sondern live in deine Prozesse zu integrieren, dann ist Ambient AI kein Trend, sondern ein strategischer Vorteil.     Noch mehr von den Koertings ...  Das KI-Café ... jede Woche Mittwoch (>350 Teilnehmer) von 08:30 bis 10:00 Uhr ... online via Zoom .. kostenlos und nicht umsonstJede Woche Mittwoch um 08:30 Uhr öffnet das KI-Café seine Online-Pforten ... wir lösen KI-Anwendungsfälle live auf der Bühne ... moderieren Expertenpanel zu speziellen Themen (bspw.

In this Squiggly Shortcut, Helen shares why self-awareness is one of the most important skills for your career and how to build it in small, practical ways. Rather than relying on reflection alone, she explains how self-awareness also means understanding how others experience you and offers three simple exercises to help you spot blind spots, manage your energy, and support your growth.Episode 536

Welcome back to Warehouse and Operations as a Career. I'm Marty, and today we're talking about a piece of equipment that almost everyone in our industry recognizes, but not everyone fully understands it. If you're a long time listener you'll remember I spent about 6 years operating it on the 2nd shift, in the outbound operations within the food service distribution arena. We're going to talk about the cherry picker today. Now its proper name, or if your ordering one from the manufacturer, it'll be referred to as an order picker. This machine helped shape the modern warehouse, the newer e-commerce departments, and really, distribution as a whole. It's increased productivity, allowed us to build higher racking, with many more selection slots, helping reduce the buildings footprint, reducing the cost of real-estate needed. But it's also one of the most unforgiving pieces of equipment to operate. So today, I want to really walk through where the order picker came from, why it exists, what it's good at, where and what it struggles with, how it's used, and most importantly, the dangers, limitations, and responsibility that come with it. This isn't just about the equipment. And I know I harp on it, but it's about our mindset, maturity, and our career. And you ought to know, I'm going to take this opportunity to again stating that you should never get on or even touch a piece of equipment or machine that you have not been trained and certified to be on. Now that all that’s out of the way, let’s talk about the cherry picker! Believe it or not, the cherry picker didn't start in a warehouse. Its earliest versions were used in agriculture, specifically for harvesting fruit. Farmers needed a way to lift workers safely into trees so they could hand-pick produce without ladders or unsafe climbing. The concept was simple, instead of bringing the fruit down, bring the worker up. As warehousing evolved, especially in the mid-20th century, that same idea became essential indoors. Warehouses started growing up instead of out. Land became expensive. Inventory counts increased. SKU or item counts exploded. Full pallets weren't always the answer anymore. Traditional forklifts could move pallets just fine, but they couldn't safely lift people to pick individual cases. And that's where the order picker was born. By combining a powered industrial truck with an elevated operator platform, warehouses could store product higher, pick individual cases efficiently, reduce walking and ladder use, and dramatically increase picking productivity. Over time, these machines were refined with better controls, safety systems, harness requirements, and more stable designs. What we ended up with is one of the most productive, and demanding machines in the building. The defining feature of an order picker is simple but powerful, the operator rises or goes up in the air, up to the higher pick slots with the platform and forks, with a pallet usually. And that changed everything. Instead of pulling pallets down to floor level or relying on ladders and mezzanines, the operator works directly at the pick face or pick slot. Here's why that matters. First, vertical access. Order pickers allow warehouses to fully utilize high-bay racking. Space that would otherwise be wasted becomes valuable inventory real estate. Second, case-level picking. This machine is built for piece and case selection, not full pallet movement. That makes it ideal for retail, grocery, and e-commerce operations where accuracy matters as much as or more than speed. Third, productivity and accuracy. A trained operator following a clean pick path can maintain a strong cases-per-hour average while reducing errors, with less walking, less searching for the product, less backtracking. And fourth, when used properly, reduced physical strain. The machine does the lifting, not the operator. No constant ladder climbing. No unsafe stretching to reach the product. And no carrying cases long distances. But, and this is a biggie, all of those benefits only exist when the equipment is used correctly and the warehouse is layed out and slotted properly. It needs to be said that order pickers are a specialized piece of equipment. They are not one-size-fits-all machines. They perform best in the high-bay warehouses, and narrow-aisle configurations. They require clean, dry, flat floors, and facilities with defined pick paths and in operations with high SKU and item counts. They are common in retail distribution centers, grocery warehouses and those large e-commerce fulfillment operations. They are not ideal for outdoor use, on uneven or damaged flooring, and up front in our dock areas or congested pedestrian zones and walkways. If your facility isn't designed for elevated picking, an order picker becomes more risk than reward. Now we get to the part that separates training from experience. The order picker is one of the most dangerous pieces of equipment in the warehouse if misused. The biggest risk is obvious, falls from height. That's why harnesses and are not optional and why lanyards must be properly anchored and why gates must be closed before elevation. A fall from an order picker is rarely a minor incident. It's usually life-altering or worse. Another major risk is stability. Order pickers are designed to lift vertically, not travel or turn at height. Sudden movements, improper positioning, or failure to fully lower before traveling can and will create serious tip-over hazards. Then there are the pinch points and struck-by hazards. Operators work inches from steel racking, the beams, and product. One moment of distraction can result in crushed fingers, head injuries, or worse. And I want to point out, one of the most common unsafe behaviors, and that is overreaching. Instead of repositioning the truck, operators may stretch just a little farther. That's when our balance can be or is lost, and that's when falls happen. Your machine will always win that fight. A professional order picker operator follows a rhythm and the rules. It starts with his or her pre-shift inspection. Brakes, tires, controls, mast, chains, horn, lights, harness, and lanyard. This isent just more paperwork or a law, it's self-preservation! Mounting the platform means three points of contact. Harness on. Lanyard secured and the gate closed and latched. Traveling means forks down, eyes up, horn used when needed, and awareness of surroundings. When elevating, the operator is square to the rack, lifts smoothly, and keeps their body inside the platform. No leaning and no shortcuts. After the pick is completed, the platform comes all the way down before travel every time. That consistency, following the procedure is what prevents injuries. Lets see, what else, uh, let’s talk about some of the controls. Theres several different models but most order pickers share common controls, forward and reverse travel, lift and lower, steering controls, a horn, an emergency stop, a deadman switch, and a battery indicator, and a pallet clamp or pallet grab vice. A trained operator doesn't just know what each control does. They know to use them. It's important to understand that training is not optional. Operating an order picker is not a right, and it's a lot of responsibility. Of course that proper training includes classroom instruction, demonstration of the controls and handling, a hands-on evaluation, a review of the site-specific hazards and the observation and certification. Our powered industrial truck training or PIT training. And here's another opportunity for me to state to never, ever, get on or touch a piece of equipment or machine that you've not been trained or certified to be on or operate! And remember that authorization can be removed if unsafe behavior is observed or we don't act and operate it responsibly, and that's not punishment, that's our own fault and for our own good and the good of others. Because the goal isn't speed. The goal is going home. Here's the bigger takeaway. The order picker rewards discipline, patience, awareness and respect for process and position. By the way, those same traits are what make great leads, supervisors, and managers. People who master this equipment often become the people others trust because they understand the consequences. The cherry picker teaches you that rushing doesn't save time. Shortcuts don't make you efficient and safety isn't a rule, it's a responsibility. I loved my time on the cherry picker, it is one of the most powerful tools in the warehouse and one of the most dangerous when disrespected. The difference in those two statements isn't the machine. It's the operator. I always love talking about the many different pieces of equipment and the machines we use in our industry. If you have any positions or tools used in the light industry world, shoot us an email to host@warehouseandoperationsasacareer.com or post a comment on our Facebook page using @whseops, or hit us up on Instagram at waocpodcast and I'll do my best to find us an answer! Well, I hope you enjoyed today’s episode and thanks for spending your time with us, and I'd appreciate it if you'd share the show with a friend or two!

In dieser Folge sprechen Coach Björn Geesmann und Redakteurin Anna Bruder über einen der meistdiskutierten Trainingsgrundsätze im Ausdauersport: Warum Trainingsumfang kein verhandelbares Nice-to-have ist, sondern die Basis für langfristige Leistungsentwicklung. Björn erklärt, welche physiologischen Anpassungen vor allem über Umfang entstehen, warum Intensität das nicht ersetzen kann – und wo sie trotzdem sinnvoll eingesetzt wird. Anhand konkreter Praxisbeispiele (Laufband, Abkürzen von Einheiten, Trainingslager) geht es um Energieumsatz, Mitochondrien, Fettstoffwechsel und die Frage, wie man Umfang sinnvoll steuert, ohne sich zu überlasten. Eine Folge für alle, die verstehen wollen, warum es keinen Shortcut gibt und wie man trotz begrenzter Zeit klug trainiert.

In dieser Ask-Me-Anything-about-OKR-Episode des Murakamy Podcasts geht es um konkrete Spannungsfelder der OKR-Praxis: um den Unterschied zwischen Outcome und Output, um Tagesgeschäft versus Wandel und um Verantwortung in organisationaler Unschärfe. Wir diskutieren, warum „as measured by“ kein harmloser Shortcut, sondern ein Bruch in der OKR-Logik ist. Es geht darum, wie mit 80 Prozent Tagesgeschäft umzugehen ist, die Ressourcen binden, aber keine Verbesserung versprechen. Und wir fragen, was mit Zielen passiert, wenn sich Rollen, Aufbauorganisation und Verantwortlichkeiten permanent verändern. Die Folge macht deutlich, warum saubere Zielarbeit immer eine Führungsfrage ist – und weshalb OKRs dort scheitern, wo Entscheidungen vertagt oder delegiert werden.

Generative AI tools are here to stay. There's a debate around whether or not they should be embraced in spaces of learning. Recent reports suggest that the risks of using these tools might outweigh the benefits, threatening cognitive development by doing the thinking for their users. This is forcing educators into a dilemma: how do they make the most of AI's potential, while also protecting students' ability to think for themselves? In this episode, host Samantha Laine Perfas talks with cognitive scientist Tina Grotzer, applied mathematics professor Michael Brenner, and educator Ying Xu about how to use AI tools to enhance learning, rather than replace it.

In this Squiggly Shortcut, Sarah shares practical, low-pressure ways to network when you're more introverted than extroverted.

Juliana Stepanova: Why "I'll Just Do It Myself" Is the Most Expensive PO Shortcut Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   In this episode, we refer to previous discussions about team collaboration and Product Owner patterns. The Great Product Owner: Opening Up to the Team for Solutions "The PO who's not sitting and saying 'I know how it's right, I will solve it by myself,' but coming and saying 'Hey, let's think all together'—that's what gives very, very speed-up development into becoming a great PO." - Juliana Stepanova   Juliana describes the Product Owners she considers truly great as those who bring their challenges to the team rather than solving everything alone. Her example features a PO who was invited to recurring release meetings that consumed one and a half to two hours every two weeks—30 people in a room, largely a waste of time. Instead of suffering in silence or trying to fix it alone, this PO approached the team: "Hey guys, I have these meetings, and they're useless for me. How can we deal with that?" The team collaborated with the Scrum Master to explore multiple options.  Together, they developed a streamlined, semi-automatic system that reduced the process to 10 minutes without requiring anyone to sit in a room. This solution was so effective that it was eventually adopted across the entire company, eliminating countless hours of wasted meetings. The key insight: great POs see themselves as part of the team, not above it. They're open to solutions from anyone and understand that collaboration—not individual genius—drives real improvements.   Self-reflection Question: When facing challenges that seem outside the team's domain, do you bring them to the team for collaborative problem-solving, or do you try to solve them alone? The Bad Product Owner: The Loner Who Does Everyone's Job "To make it quicker, I will skip asking the designer, I will directly put it by myself. I learned how to design five years ago. But afterwards, it's neglecting the whole team—you don't take into account the UX, and actually you need to rework." - Juliana Stepanova   The anti-pattern Juliana sees most frequently is the "loner" PO—someone who takes on other roles to move faster. The classic example: a PO who bypasses the UX/UI designer because "I learned design five years ago, I'll just do it myself." This behavior seems efficient in the moment but creates multiple problems. It disrespects the expertise of team members, undermines the collaborative nature of agile development, and almost inevitably leads to rework when the shortcuts create quality gaps.  Juliana points out this isn't unique to POs—developers sometimes bypass testers for the same "efficiency" reasons. The solution isn't punishment but cultural reinforcement: helping people see the value of professional work, encouraging communication and openness, and building respect for each role's contribution. The key principle: if someone hasn't asked for help, don't assume they need yours. Focus on your own job, and offer assistance only when invited or when you explicitly ask "Do you need help?"   Self-reflection Question: When have you taken on someone else's role because it seemed faster, and what was the real cost of that shortcut?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Hong Kong prides itself on being a first world city. So how did such a thing like the Tai Po fire happen?Synopsis: Every first Friday of the month, The Straits Times catches up with its foreign correspondents about life and trends in the countries they're based in. On Nov 26, 2025, a fire swept through Wang Fuk Court in Hong Kong's Tai Po district, killing 168 people. What also perished in that inferno was a certain trust in the system to keep everyone safe. The Straits Times’ Hong Kong Correspondent Magdalene Fung, a long-time resident of the city, talks to host and foreign editor Li Xueying about her experience covering the disaster. She also wrestles with the question of how Hong Kong’s tolerance for cutting corners cuts both ways. There is ingenuity. But the acceptance of quick, convenient fixes has also resulted in a society that collectively allowed the fire to happen.

Repetitive tasks can quietly drain mental energy for adults with ADHD — especially when they require remembering steps, starting from scratch, or constantly reinventing the wheel. In this episode of ADHD Support Talk Radio, host Tara McGillicuddy and co-host Lynne Edris explore how saving mental energy is not about working harder or relying on motivation. Instead, they discuss how using shortcuts like templates, checklists, guides, routines, and simple personal automations can make everyday life easier for the ADHD brain. This conversation focuses on why repetitive tasks often feel more exhausting than creative or new work, and how executive function overload contributes to procrastination, overwhelm, and mental paralysis. By externalizing steps and decisions, shortcuts help reduce mental fatigue, prevent common mistakes, and make it easier to get started on tasks that have been done many times before. In this episode, you'll learn: Why repetitive tasks are so draining for ADHD brains How templates and checklists reduce mental load Why starting from scratch makes tasks harder to begin How structure can actually support creativity Practical ways to make everyday tasks easier to manage This episode is especially helpful if you feel overwhelmed by responsibilities you've handled many times before, struggle with follow-through, or feel burned out by tasks that shouldn't feel so hard. ADHD Support Talk Radio is one of the longest-running podcasts for adults with ADHD, offering practical strategies, real conversations, and support to help listeners move from stuck to action.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. In 1986, Sydney nurse Anita Cobby was abducted and murdered after a sexual assault, followed two years later by the abduction, sexual assault and murder of Janine Balding after she was taken from Sutherland train station. In the aftermath, the New South Wales government introduced laws that ensured the teenage offenders would spend their lives in prison with no chance of parole. Criminal lawyer and former NSW MP Peter Breen joins Australian True Crime to argue those laws were deeply flawed and that some of the men convicted may have been innocent.
