Prices will continue to rise, on average 5 to 6% nationwide. -Some as much as 10%, some will be more stagnant.  -What happens locally will depend on your inventory and the impact of new construction. -Rents will increase. -Defaults and distressed real estate isn't going to be an issue.  2.  Mortgage Interest Rates will continue to trend downward. -Likely to stabilize in the low to mid 6% range. -Builders will still offer better interest rates through their in-house financing. -Assumable mortgages may become more prevalent.  We are already seeing this happen. -5 and 7-year Adjustable rates will become more popular. 3.  Inventory will rise as interest rates fall.   -Most sellers are also buyers, so when there are more choices to move up or down to, they'll be more willing to list. 4. The number of Sales will rise. -This should climb back to the 5 million sale range, but that's still short of a 'normal' or balanced market. Increase in resale home sales by as much as 1,000,000 units.  -Sellers will continue to be in control. 5.  Agent Migration from small and medium-sized brokerages to larger brands. -Result of commission lawsuit -Result of shrinking profits -Brokerages like EXP are rising due to agent-centric opportunities beyond just commissions 6.  Effect of the Commission Lawsuits: Too soon to tell, however... -Watch for local MLSs to 'decouple' from NAR.  Membership to NAR will drop but that doesn't mean agents are quitting real estate. -Flexibility of buyer-side fees may become more normal. -Power of state and local boards will increase if NAR's influence decreases 7.  New AI empowered Team (and Brokerage) models will thrive.  - AI empowered agents will rule the roost. -Expect AGI (beyond AI) to be the biggest reality bender since the Industrial Revolution or even the Tech Revolution.  -Soon AI will do all of your social media and other passive lead generation for you.  -AI will allow individual agents to operate as if they had a big (and expensive) team. -AI will enable agents to not just lead generate but also do initial prequalification and even presales.  8.  New Construction will continue to be hot. -Impact on the resale market -Don't expect builders to flood the market; they control their own inventory  -Smaller floorplans  -New construction prices already have adjusted down by 5% 9. New Mortgage Programs will flourish. (and new Fin-Tech) - Expect home ownership and mortgage access to become a very hot political topic. The average age of a first time buyer is now close to 40! - 40 year mortgages. Automatic rate reductions when the rates fall etc.  - Homes will be securitized by the owner. Imagine being able to sell off the value of 10% of your home to an investor. Investor gets paid 10% of the homes value when the home sells. Their 10% investment could be used towards downpayment etc. - Fannie and Freddie will be purchasing MBS (mortgage backed securities) - Federal Reserve will purchase MBS.  10.  2024 will be the start of the New Roaring 20s.  - 2024 is the start of a new bull run for home sales. You thought the last boom was big...just wait. 2023 WAS the worst year for total home sales in nearly 40 years. 2023 was the bottom of th market.

March 11, 1985. Waverly, Georgia. While holding a Bible class at the Rising Daughters Baptist Church, 66-year old deacon Harold Swain is summoned to the vestibule by an unidentified man. Harold is soon shot to death and when his 63-year old wife, Thelma Swain, goes to check on him, she is fatally shot as well. Eighteen years later, a suspect named Dennis Perry is convicted of the murders and receives two life sentences. However, controversy surrounds the conviction, as a lot of crucial evidence went missing, Perry seemed to have a solid alibi, and another suspect allegedly bragged about the murders. Did Dennis Perry actually commit this crime, or has the real killer escaped justice? This week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly” examines an “Unsolved Mysteries” case which may not be as “solved” as everyone thinks.Additional Reading:https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Harold_and_Thelma_Swainhttps://www.news4jax.com/news/man-found-guilty-of-1985-church-murdershttps://www.denverpost.com/2007/07/24/key-evidence-goes-missing-in-georgia-church-murders/https://www.georgiainnocenceproject.org/active-cases-2/case-page-perry/https://www.georgiainnocenceproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/2015-3-19-PERRY-combined.pdfhttp://matchbin-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/public/sites/2777/assets/A93D_Motion__exhibits_combined_SMALLER.pdfhttp://freedennisperry.blogspot.com/2007/11/This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4838527/advertisement

This week we look back to a time when the music industry was, mostly, run through a handful of record labels. With big money to be made, record companies such as Capitol, Epic, Columbia, and Atlantic wielded a lot of power. Buyouts were happening such as in the case of Polygram acquiring Casablanca Records which would result in a very in-flux KISS winding up on Mercury Records. Smaller labels, while limited financially, were successful at times due to scouting new talent and breaking it. This circumstance would lead labels such as Elektra, Metal Blade, and Megaforce to be on the ground floor of some legendary careers and genres. In this discussion, we discuss all of these record labels, many of the notable artists that inhabited their rosters, how they stacked up in the rock world, and much more. The era we're focusing on this time is 1980-1984.  Was the rule and oversight of the early 80's music industry a good thing? Is today's wide open musical climate a better thing for artists? Let us know what YOU think in the comments! We hope you enjoy Label Wars (1980-1984) and SHARE with a friend. Decibel Geek is a proud member of the Pantheon Podcasts family. Contact Us!

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Today is day 55 of the war. Zman Yisrael editor Biranit Goren and military reporter Emanuel Fabian join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's podcast. Three people were killed and six were wounded, two of them seriously, in a terror shooting attack at the entrance to Jerusalem on Thursday morning. Fabian updates us. There are increased reports of Hamas violations of the ceasefire. How is the IDF weighing how to respond? Fabian joined a ride-along with the IDF on a night-time raid in Beit Furik between Monday and Tuesday. What were the goals and were they met? The updated list of hostages to be freed today is made up of only eight hostages — six women and two children. Hamas is claiming that the two Israeli-Russian women released last night as a “gesture” to Russian President Vladimir Putin will count toward today's list. We also have heard that three bodies will be returned. Yesterday, Hamas's military wing asserted Shiri Bibas, 32, and her children, four-year-old Ariel and 10-month-old Kfir, were killed in an Israeli strike during the war in the Strip. What do we know? For the latest updates, please look at The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog.

With a strong holiday season expected, and a rise in U.S. passport issuance, there's good reason to believe the travel industry will see durable growth in the year ahead.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Ravi Shanker, Morgan Stanley's Freight Transportation and Airlines Analyst. Along with my colleagues bringing you a variety of perspectives, today I'll discuss our view on airline travel in 2024. It's Wednesday, November 29th at 10 a.m. in New York. Travel plans are in most people's minds over the holiday season, and many of us just experienced firsthand the hectic Thanksgiving holiday weekend. On the Sunday after Thanksgiving, the US Transportation Security Administration, or TSA, screened more than 2.9 million passengers, which was the most ever for a single day. Overall, the TSA's reported number of travelers last week was up 4.2% versus 2019 and has been tracking up nearly 6% versus 2019 for the month of November. This is impressive given that November is typically a slower leisure travel month. Furthermore, despite record travel over the last several weeks, airlines achieved record low cancellations over the Thanksgiving weekend as well. This all bodes well for the upcoming holidays. We continue to expect a strong holiday season ahead, as demand for air travel is showing no signs of slowing. And despite concerns around choppy macro conditions, we continue to see no signs of a cliff in demand. Meanwhile, our survey work indicates that holiday travel intentions remain robust among all consumers and not just high income households. At the same time, corporate travel budgets in 2024 are trending in line with expectations, and business travel is likely to mirror domestic leisure travel just on a delayed basis. Smaller enterprises continue to lead the way for corporate travel demand. Among companies with less than $1 billion in revenue, 41% are already back to pre 2020 travel volumes. Right now, the primary barriers to corporate travel appear to be cost concerns as well as the economic and market outlook. This suggests that constraints on corporate travel may be cyclical rather than structural. One final observation which relates to both international business and leisure travel is that US passport issuance is also up. According to US government data, as of early November, 2023 had already seen the issuance of over 24 million passports. That's 9% higher compared to 2022. This is a new record which demonstrates that people want to travel now more than ever, particularly internationally. Over the past 25 years, the number of US passports issued per year has noticeably increased after major economic events such as the dot-com bubble in the early 2000s, the global financial crisis in 2008-2009, with the latest being post-Covid in 2022. We continue to believe that this is not a one and done travel spike, but a durable growth trend. All told, it looks like we may be entering a new golden age of travel in the 2020s. Thanks for listening. If you enjoy the show, please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts and shared Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.

The term "McMansion" refers to a type of large, ostentatious, and often architecturally uninspired suburban home that became popular in the United States during the late 20th and early 21st centuries. These homes are typically characterized by their excessive size, gaudy design elements, and a lack of architectural coherence. The rise of McMansions can be attributed to several factors: Economic Prosperity: The late 20th and early 21st centuries saw periods of economic growth and relative affluence in the United States. As people's incomes increased, there was a greater demand for larger and more luxurious homes. Social Status and Prestige: McMansions were often seen as status symbols, reflecting the homeowner's success and affluence. Many people aspired to own these large homes as a way of showcasing their social and economic standing. Suburban Sprawl: The development of McMansions was closely tied to suburban sprawl, where large tracts of land on the outskirts of cities were developed for housing. These homes were often built on oversized lots and were part of planned communities with amenities like golf courses and clubhouses. Cookie-Cutter Design: McMansions are often criticized for their lack of architectural uniqueness. Many of these homes feature generic and formulaic designs, leading to a sense of homogeneity in suburban neighborhoods. Desire for More Space: Homebuyers were drawn to McMansions because of the promise of more space. These homes typically have multiple bedrooms, bathrooms, and large living areas, catering to the desire for ample room for families and possessions. Real Estate Trends: At the peak of their popularity, McMansions were seen as good investments due to the rising property values. Many people bought them with the expectation that they would appreciate in value over time. Customization and Amenities: McMansions often included features like granite countertops, vaulted ceilings, and walk-in closets, appealing to buyers who wanted modern conveniences and luxurious amenities. However, the popularity of McMansions has waned over the years for various reasons: Changing Aesthetics: Many people began to find the excessive size and gaudy designs of McMansions unappealing, preferring more modest and aesthetically pleasing architectural styles. Environmental Concerns: The large size and energy inefficiency of McMansions came under scrutiny as environmental concerns grew. Smaller, more sustainable homes gained favor among eco-conscious buyers. Economic Factors: The economic downturn of the late 2000s, known as the Great Recession, had a significant impact on the real estate market, making McMansions less affordable and desirable. Lifestyle Changes: As demographics and lifestyles evolved, there was a growing trend toward smaller households and a desire for more walkable, urban environments rather than large suburban homes. In recent years, there has been a shift towards more thoughtful and sustainable housing designs, with an emphasis on quality over quantity. As a result, the era of the McMansion has, to some extent, given way to a new emphasis on more modest and environmentally conscious home construction and design.

I've had so much fun coming back from my mastermind and diving into my numbers. Just before I left I wrapped up a challenge. I made an assumption that it didn't do so well. Until I came back, analyzed the details & realized I did a bit better than I originally thought. And it was profitable and totally scalable. In this episode I give the breakdown of why small & predictable margins are the real strategy behind sustained growth. Woohoo!

Is it possible to make six or seven figures with challenges and events? This week's podcast guest and OfferLaunch featured speaker, Austin Ford, better known as The Challenge King, made $100K the day he started doing his events.

This shows that you don't need a big audience to launch an event. Like I always say, doing an event is one of the best ways to introduce yourself to the market. So, don't worry if you don't have an extensive list. What you need to worry about is this one crucial thing that most marketers overlook. What is it? What's the secret formula to filling an event that converts better? Listen now to my conversation with Austin Ford to find out.   Key Takeaways: Introduction (00:00) From jack of all trades to becoming the challenge king (02:01) The power of focusing on one thing (09:06) Transitioning from challenges to virtual events (10:42) How to get traffic to your events even without a list (13:26) Better conversions vs. better speaker (16:07) Mistakes most entrepreneurs make with challenges and events (18:55) Smaller events convert better (21:04) What to do after your events?

Today, our discussion comes from our archived seminar: In Quest of a Multipolar Economic World Order – Promises and Perils, which was recorded in March of 2021. Our talk is hosted by our Director of Education, Dr. Ibrahima Drame, and Alana Hartzok, an environmental activist and ethicist. For our talk today we're joined by Dr. Michael Hudson and Mr. Pepe Escobar.   Dr. Hudson is the president of the Institute for the Study of Long Term Economic Trends, and a professor of economics at the University of Missouri–Kansas City as well as the School of Marxist Studies at Peking University, in China.   Mr. Escobar is a Brazilian journalist with extensive experience in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. He is the author of several books on globalization: Globalistan, Empire of Chaos, and many more.   As the British Empire began to fall and World War II came to a halt, a new world order was created. A new hegemon, the United States, was established, creating the rules-based system of international governance we see today.   International institutions, such as the United Nations (UN), World Bank, or the World Trade Organization (WTO) were established to create forums and processes for nations to amicably settle disputes. As the leader in this newly created order, the US benefited from the growing economic and diplomatic ties between themselves and the international community. However, as time passed, the US became less competitive and increasingly unequal as its future competitors developed.   Fast forward to today, and the current order is beginning to be challenged. China has a comparable status to the US economically, militarily, and technologically. Russia has waged war in Ukraine, ending decades of inter-country peace in Europe. Smaller and medium-sized nations, like Iran or Turkey, are playing an outsized role in international affairs and conduct themselves with increasingly precarious behavior.   With the decline of the US, questions about the global order it established are beginning to arise. Some believe that the very hegemonic status itself was the cause of many global ills. Within this criticism lies the desire for a multipolar world, or one that has many leaders, not just one. However, history has shown that challenges to established orders or incumbent hegemons can lead to tumultuous times. Our guests today help us understand how things could play out in the coming decades. Will this be an opportunity to fix unaddressed concerns or another flashpoint for conflict? Looking at the world through geopolitical and economic lens, we can answer some of these questions.     Dr. Hudson is a consultant to governments across the world for nations like Latvia, China, and Iceland. Pepe is the editor-at-large for Asia Times and is a veteran geopolitical analyst. These two are seasoned geopolitical commentators and are the perfect guests to answer some of our questions.   Together, we discussed how imperialistic tendencies led to problematic behavior by the US, why China developed so rapidly while the US stagnated, and why South American countries pursued neoliberal policies in the 70s and 80s.

New Zealand's trade deficit appears to be getting smaller, according to the latest data. A new report from Stats NZ says imports were down, falling $1.2b to $7.1b compared to October last year. Kiwibank economist Sabrina Delgado says increased interest rates are restraining demand and causing imports to fall. "We actually saw that our imports surged during the post-Covid period when we had quite a lot of loose monetary policy and expanded fiscal policy- we saw imports rose off the back of that, now we've got really high interest rates."

While the recent US Basel Endgame proposal will affect many elements of the capital rules, it will especially impact operational risk, a new category of capital charge for most banks. Midsize and larger US banking organizations will need to develop extensive loss-event tracking and quantification systems to comply with new operational risk requirements. Smaller banking organizations, while not required to hold capital for operational risk, should consider implementing tracking systems, given the 10-year lookback requirement, and its potential applicability in acquisitions. Please join Mayer Brown partners Jeffrey Taft and Matthew Bisanz for a discussion of the proposed operational risk requirements, and the key issues that banking organizations should consider during the comment period.

The latest image from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope shows a portion of the dense center of our galaxy in unprecedented detail, including never-before-seen features astronomers have yet to explain. The star-forming region, named Sagittarius C (Sgr C), is about 300 light-years from the Milky Way's central supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*.Amid the estimated 500,000 stars in the image is a cluster of protostars – stars that are still forming and gaining mass – producing outflows that glow like a bonfire in the midst of an infrared-dark cloud. At the heart of this young cluster is a previously known, massive protostar over 30 times the mass of our Sun. The cloud the protostars are emerging from is so dense that the light from stars behind it cannot reach Webb, making it appear less crowded when in fact it is one of the most densely packed areas of the image. Smaller infrared-dark clouds dot the image, looking like holes in the starfield. That's where future stars are forming.Webb's NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) instrument also captured large-scale emission from ionized hydrogen surrounding the lower side of the dark cloud, shown cyan-colored in the image. Typically, Crowe says, this is the result of energetic photons being emitted by young massive stars, but the vast extent of the region shown by Webb is something of a surprise that bears further investigation. Another feature of the region that Crowe plans to examine further is the needle-like structures in the ionized hydrogen, which appear oriented chaotically in many directions.“The galactic center is a crowded, tumultuous place. There are turbulent, magnetized gas clouds that are forming stars, which then impact the surrounding gas with their outflowing winds, jets, and radiation,” said Rubén Fedriani, a co-investigator of the project at the Instituto Astrofísica de Andalucía in Spain. “Webb has provided us with a ton of data on this extreme environment, and we are just starting to dig into it.”Around 25,000 light-years from Earth, the galactic center is close enough to study individual stars with the Webb telescope, allowing astronomers to gather unprecedented information on how stars form, and how this process may depend on the cosmic environment, especially compared to other regions of the galaxy. For example, are more massive stars formed in the center of the Milky Way, as opposed to the edges of its spiral arms?“The image from Webb is stunning, and the science we will get from it is even better,” Crowe said. “Massive stars are factories that produce heavy elements in their nuclear cores, so understanding them better is like learning the origin story of much of the universe.”This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5953955/advertisement

Substantial criticism -- by sparking lively, contentious dialogue about the strengths, weaknesses, and contributions of the arts -- plays an indispensable role in the cultural ecology. Smaller, newer organizations are fostered by debate and evaluation.

IC System has over 85 years in the collection business, with over 50 years of working with government clients. In this podcast, we explore the significance of reputable debt collection agencies like IC System in the government sector, especially how their expertise and resources benefit government organizations. From small municipalities to large federal entities, every segment within government systems requires effective collections management in line with regulatory requirements and diverse debt scenarios. IC System's Operations Manager, Lyn Krenz, highlights their unique advantage as former floor collection agents who understand what it takes to work directly with individuals or businesses struggling with outstanding balances. This foundational experience enables IC System to better serve their clients by empathizing with debtors' concerns while effectively managing collections. The success of a collections agency relies on various factors such as automated systems tailored to individual state or municipality requirements. IC System also provides comprehensive training programs for certified financial representatives who adhere to specific guidelines imposed by each agency they work with.IC System's experienced team ensures compliance with federal guidelines regarding the handling of sensitive financial information. By maintaining secure systems and protocols, IC System provides peace of mind to clients and protects the privacy of clients and debtors. Moreover, support materials and online tools are accessible for clients' convenience. Smaller municipalities especially benefit greatly from these tools when analyzing up-to-date data and information about collection accounts. IC System's nationwide presence is instrumental when dealing with debtors who may have moved out of the state where they initially owed taxes or fees. Being licensed across all 50 states allows them to provide continuous service regardless of geographical constraints faced by other local collection agencies.Smaller government entities often lack resources or staffing capabilities to handle collections internally. Outsourcing the collection process allows municipalities to allocate their limited staff resources toward fulfilling other organizational goals while relying on established collections agencies like IC System to enhance their revenue streams. IC System prioritizes customer experience. Their goal is not only debt recovery but also educating debtors about available options and long-term benefits of resolving outstanding debts promptly. By conducting independent surveys, IC System maintains an exceptional 98% satisfaction rate among consumers who have interacted with their representatives.In summary, agencies can play a crucial role in helping government entities recover outstanding debts, ensuring the financial stability of municipalities, counties, and even federal agencies. With robust support systems, national reach, secure protocols, and adherence to regulatory requirements at both state and federal levels, reputable collections agencies provide valuable assistance in strengthening government organizations' financial stability.

The more talented you are, the more humble you should be.

 In this episode of "Talent Takeover Unfiltered," Brianna Rooney and Taylor Bradley tackle a controversial topic: layoffs and rehires in the corporate world. The dynamic duo dives into the phenomenon of companies conducting mass layoffs only to post similar positions for lower salaries shortly thereafter.Brianna and Taylor kick things off by discussing their experiences with layoffs and how they've witnessed this pattern in the industry over the years. They emphasize the importance of open conversations and transparent communication when it comes to salaries and layoffs. Brianna highlights the need for individuals to understand their worth and salary expectations realistically.The hosts delve into the recent example of Meta (formerly Facebook), a tech giant that went through a significant round of layoffs. Recruiters who were laid off were dismayed to see their positions posted at lower salaries. Taylor and Brianna explore the reasons behind such actions by large corporations and the potential motivations, including salary inflation and the need for salary adjustments.They stress the significance of a culture reset in organizations during times of layoffs. Smaller startups may offer a more stable and supportive work environment, while large companies may face challenges in maintaining their inflated salary structures.Brianna and Taylor also discuss the trend of tech giants hoarding AI engineers and the unsustainable salaries they offer. They caution against chasing inflated salaries and emphasize the importance of considering company culture and stability when making career decisions.In the second half of the episode, the hosts offer practical advice for individuals who find themselves in a situation where their previous company is rehiring for their former position. They recommend reaching out for a conversation, requesting references, and handling the situation with grace and professionalism.The episode concludes with a reminder that being laid off does not reflect an individual's worth, and it's essential to maintain professionalism and explore all options when faced with the possibility of returning to a former employer at a different compensation level. We want to hear from you!

Pilar and Tim are back having a conversation about conversations. Following on from #66 which covered 1:1 conversations, in this episode they dive into group discussions. Facilitating a group adds another layer of complexity - for example giving more time to one person means less time for everyone else. And people behave differently in group conversations. There are more people to be mindful of, more rapport to build, more status to be won and lost. And for managers it is a challenge. There is lots going on within the group dynamic - and in our own minds. We have to be aware of our own habits and those of our people, and even reassess our idea of the many forms worthwhile contributions and engagement can look like in a group. 00:10 mins Through her career in facilitation and leading groups Pilar has learnt that some people need time or a few attempts to get their point across. These people are hard to manage in a group conversation because if you want them to contribute to the conversation you have to make enough space for them. 4:00 Pilar suggests talking with them separately before the group conversation. If you understand what they want to communicate then you can use that in the larger discussion. For example, you can gently bring them to their point or help them by paraphrasing their thoughts. Sometimes when people don't feel understood they keep trying different ways to get their point across. Which can take time! 5:45 Tim proposes bringing them later into the discussion, after some of their points have already been covered, so they don't need to say as much. This can be a win-win if you get them to buy into this plan. By letting others contribute early on, engagement will increase throughout the discussion. And so if your "long talkers" are able to wait, their later contribution will have a greater impact because everyone is more engaged in what they are saying. 7:45 As someone who has orchestrated a lot of large group discussions online, Pilar has seen the good and bad of breakout rooms. One benefit is conversations can happen in parallel. Splitting the group for part of the time can be a useful in-person tool too. 9:00 Tim confesses that he gets a thrill out of being the lead in a big group discussion. Breakout rooms mean a smaller audience! Pilar reassures him that it's ok to enjoy that spotlight. As leaders we need to meet some of our own needs as well as the needs of our team. And we can still get joy from aspects like setting direction, bringing people back together and summarising for the group. 11:45 In-person meetings have logistical challenges to breakout discussions. It can be hard enough to book one meeting space for the time you need, let alone if you want to include several breakout spaces as well. 13:00 We can overcome some of the logistics by looking beyond the idea that a discussion has to be a large group all in a meeting room together at the same time. Smaller groups can meet beforehand, information can be shared in different mediums or distributed at different times, parts of the discussions can even be asynchronous. This can give opportunity to those who need time to digest information or those who don't want to talk in front of a large group. 15:30 Leaders will sometimes need to focus on their own contribution to a discussion. At times like these it's super helpful to have built capacity for others in the team to be able to run the meeting. 16:00 We can also think about how our people's traits might be helpful. Opinionated people can help start a discussion or the person who thinks out loud can run through the agenda. 16:50 When a group discussion gets close to an outcome, Tim can get overexcited and lose his balance. 18:00 The great Lisette Sutherland from Collaboration Superpowers taught Tim that if people don't speak in the first 5 minutes of a meeting they are significantly less likely to speak for the entire rest of the meeting. He tried to resist the thrill of being the first person to say an idea. Instead he found a new pleasure of holding back to see if, after everyone had made their contribution, he still had a unique contribution to make. 20:30 Pilar shares a story of a time she got her desired result just by waiting and letting the other people speak. This is a great skill to build in individual and group situations. What about you, dear listener? What do you find hard with group conversations? We'd love to hear from you!

Brian also co-authored Cybersecurity Risk Management: Mastering the Fundamentals Using the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, an analysis of cybersecurity risk planning and management principles. In this episode… Public and private companies should prepare to meet SEC regulations with the new cybersecurity rules set to take effect in December. However, with cybersecurity assessment costs starting at six figures, how can small and mid-sized companies maintain compliance? Organizations that lack the resources of larger corporations can reduce costs by securing an information security consultant. These consultancies develop customized compliance programs to identify specific cybersecurity risks and recommend cost-effective strategies. For companies that adopt this type of service, cybersecurity expert Brian Haugli suggests retaining a CISO for at least 80 hours per month. During this time, a CISO should be able to formulate risk management solutions including acceptance, mitigation, and transfer. In this episode of the She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels interview Brian Haugli, CEO of SideChannel, for an in-depth conversation about cybersecurity. Brian discusses the inspiration behind SideChannel and its mission, how mid-size companies can afford to retain a CISO, and procedures for navigating ransomware demands.
