What are some of the biggest challenges executives and board members will have to work through in 2024? How can AI help business leaders at the highest levels solve some of these challenges as they navigate their organizations through unprecedented change? This episode explores some of the toughest questions executives have to address. Courtney Baker, David DeWolf, and Mohan Rao engage in a wide-ranging discussion that covers the deluge of data companies now have to sift through to find insights, the increasing difficulty of client retention in a world where choice is more abundant than ever, and the challenge of mining unstructured data for information and insights that lead to impact. Pete Buer also talks with Ingrid Curtis, President of Sparq, about how her company is using AI to drive customer satisfaction and client retention. This includes developing several internal, AI-powered tools that leverage the power of shared knowledge and experience from across their entire organization, rather than keeping those siloed in teams or individuals. All that plus Courtney and Pete cover the latest news, which includes layoffs from Google and Volkswagen integrating ChatGPT into its vehicles this year.

A tévhittel ellentétben a kiégés nem feltétlenül azokat érinti, akik nehezen indítják a hetet, nem szeretik a munkájukat – hanem főleg azokat, akik szenvedéllyel végzik a hivatásukat és alig várják a hétfőt, amikor azt csinálhatják, amit a legjobban szeretnek.

Let me introduce you to Bryan Clay… You've probably already SEEN him, but you may not know him. Long before I met Bryan I saw a photo of him circulating the Internet— one where he was draped in the American flag, fresh off winning the Decathlon. That feat officially dubbed him, for that four year Olympic period, “World's Greatest Athlete.” But he'd already won— on some level— even before he had the title. Prior to the Olympics, Clay was tested by SPARQ to establish his SPARQ Rating across a number of different sports. The test is meant to measure sport-specific athleticism. In the football test Bryan hit 130.40, the highest ever recorded up to that point. By comparison, Reggie Bush— a noted running back from USC— scored a 93.38. Anyway…

Dr. Jennifer Eberhart, author of the best-selling book “Biased: Uncovering the Hidden Prejudice That Shapes What We See, Think, and Do,” joins Janet to discuss how racial bias develops in the brain and creates disparities in our neighborhoods, schools, workplaces, and the criminal justice system. As the mother of three sons, Jennifer has also witnessed the effects of bias in real time. She and Janet explore some of the steps parents can take to combat the development of bias in their children. "Preschoolers are picking this up and determining who's a good person, who's a bad person… They need our help in comprehending what's going on around them and helping them to make sense of it." Jennifer is a Stanford University professor and a faculty director of SPARQ , a university initiative to use social psychological research to address pressing social problems. She has been named a MacArthur Fellow, one of “Foreign Policy”’s 100 Leading Global Thinkers, and elected to both the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences.

Jay Matthews is the Director of Marketing at Sitka Gear. Sitka is a high-performance manufacturer and industry leader for hunting apparel and gear. Jay's career started on the football field but when life had different plans he ended up at Nike's SPARQ program. Spending his time learning from the best, Jay left Nike as a brand manager and ultimately landed his dream job at a company that stands for his own personal values. In this episode, we talk about the commitment to solving a problem with your product over profit, the rise in the conscious consumer and what that means for brands, and how storytelling transcends everything the team at Sitka does. From the episode: "I think the commitment to earning that trust comes from guaranteeing that the product will do what you say it'll do."

Justin Kavanaugh has been involved in almost every aspect of the sports performance and fitness industry, from being an elite athlete himself, to founding his first sports performance company while still in school, to managing gyms, to developing team and personal training programs. When an injury ended his college football career, he turned his passion and talent to helping other athletes reach their full potential in sports and life. Coach Kavanaugh’s unique approach to training builds on his experience as both an elite athlete and an athlete who has endured a life-changing injury. SSI programs build strength, flexibility, speed, and teach proper bio-mechanics to increase performance and decrease chance of injury. Coach Kavanaugh’s programs also incorporate his experience with the Nike SPARQ program. SPARQ is a world-wide testing system that evaluates Speed, Power, Agility, Reaction, and Quickness. Coach Kavanaugh became involved with the program during the 2004 combines. After becoming a certified speed coach, he tested, trained and evaluated over 50,000 athletes, including stand-outs such as Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow, Kansas City Royals first round pick Eric Hosmer, and Florida’s winningest softball pitcher Stephanie Brombacher. Just this past year he worked with former Navy Quarterback and now Baltimore Raven Keenan Reynolds in his preparations for the NFL draft. As a five-sport athlete himself, Coach Kavanaugh also knows the impact a coach can have on a player’s life, and that a great coach can help an athlete reach their full potential both on and off the field. That’s why SSI coaches not only teach the skills that improve athletic performance, but also provide a positive role model which fosters love of the sport and inspires athletes to be their best.

Oh yes, this week Ryan Lopes (@stillryanfive) and Nate Liss (@anoutragedjew) spin pure gold out of what would seem like thin air. This is a high energy episode unofficially sponsored by white claw and whatever teenage magazine is popular right now. D’Onta Foreman, now a Colt: Does it even matter anymore? From RB2 > pushing RB1 to an RB3-ish with “work ethic issues”? Is it time to light the final candle? Foreman fallout in HOU; what does this mean for Lamar Miller, if anything at all? Is Damarea Crockett going to happen? What does HOU do now in that backfield/who would YOU sign (ex. Duke Johnson, Gio Bernard, or swing big for Mel Gordon)? Mike Crabtree lives and lands in ARI. Expectations? Do we care? What does it mean for our heroes Hakeem Butler and Andy Isabella? Antonio Brown may have frostbitten feet? What the heck is going on in Oakland? Meanwhile, the best receiver on the roster, Hunter Renfrow, is penciled in as the team’s starting slot option. Wheels up. Meanwhile, SPARQ-freak Mike Gesicki has had an “uneven” camp. I am upset about it. T.J. Hockenson is “fixture” with the first-team offense.  Last TE note: Rico Gathers is #free. Someone please make this happen. Or is his upside and impact all just a dream? SEA backfield update? Chris Carson vs. Rashaad Penny; Carson clearly in the “lead role” and Schotty wants him “more involved” in the passing game. Boner? Jerick McKinnon off the PUP -- are we celebrating? THE JAKOBI MEYERS SEGMENT LET THEM HEAR IT NATE Jaylen Samuels to have a “significant part of the offense” -- hello. Rookie and Breakout Finder-favorite A.J. Brown -- initial third-stringer? Emmanuel Butler RISING -- is Tre’Quan Smith in trouble?

Unconscious racial bias can influence what we see, what we do, and what we remember. These are topics that Jennifer Eberhardt, author of the book, Biased: Uncovering the Hidden Prejudice that Shapes What We See, Think, and Do, has been studying for over twenty years. In one of her studies, participants were shown either black or white human faces and then asked to identify a crime-related versus a neutral object. She found that, “black faces facilitated the detection of the crime object, whereas the white faces inhibited their detection of those very same crime objects.” Jennifer’s research led her to work with police departments, prison inmates, and companies. In each case, she couples awareness instruction with actions people can take.

SPARQ and draft expert Zach Whitman joins the show to breakdown an eventful Seahawks draft. The Seahawks turned some heads -- both positively and negatively -- on draft weekend, so a few days later, the whole Real Hawk Talk crew is assembling to break down the entire Seahawks' draft, why they took a running back in Round 1, our favorite and least favorite picks, and whether or not they did enough to address some weaknesses on their roster.

Join us in this episode to learn about Good Shepherd's SPARQ (Solving Problems and Asking Realworld Questions) Innovation space.  Learn how it came to be, how it has transformed since its inception plus the amazing and powerful learning impacts that come as a result of having this incredible place on our campus.  

Magnus og Peter dykker ombord i de seneste NFL-nyheder og tager Scouting Combine, measurables og college stats under luppen. Analytics vinder frem, og mens en spillers tape ikke skal ignoreres, så kan der være vigtige ting at finde til vores evalueringer i hvordan en spiller klarer sig ved NFLs Underwear Olympics og hvordan en quarterback har produceret i college, selvom systemerne kan være helt forskellige fra NFLs. Få et indblik i alt dette i denne uges podcast. Det er blevet langt, og har du behov for at dele det op, så hermed programoversigt, så du kan se hvornår de enkelte segmenter starter: 1.50: Franchise tags 18.30: Opsamling på trades - Marcus Peters, Robert Quinn, Alec Ogletree & Michael Bennett 38.35: Scouting Combine: Hvad er Combine og hvorfor er den vigtig - både for spillerne, for holdene og for os som amatørscouts? 1.16.15: SPARQ - historien bag SPARQ og hvorfor det er et nyttigt værktøj i draftprocessen 1.32.40: Et kig på de bedste Combine-atleter - topscorerne i SPARQ - på alle positionerne, samt på Combines værste atlet, tackle Orlando Brown 2.39.40: Force Players - en atletisk opdeling af edge rushers: Få et indblik i vigtigheden af at have en god atlet til at rushe quarterbacken 2.47.30: Kan man bruge en quarterbacks collegeproduktion til at spå om hans NFL-fremtid?

In episode two, I sat down with longtime friend and co-founder of Sparq Designs, James Blundo. We talked about business passion, rapid change, extreme growth, and being an ambitious first mover flying under the radar.

Vi gästas av Kitty Chan, representant från SparQ - en feministisk arbetsgrupp under Teaterförbundet. Vi diskuterar sexism, Bechdel-test och deras kampanj Våra Historier. 

Nyheder: 1.50: Tony Romo trækker stikket og bliver kommentator. Hvad nu Texans? Hvad nu Phil Simms? 19.55: Kawann Short tegner stor kontrakt 5 år, 80,5 millioner, 35 garanteret. Draft: 26.20: SPARQ-Monstrene - hvem er “bare” atleter og hvem har noget at byde ind på banen?

Zach Whitman joins Josh Norris to explain SPARQ, examine analytics in the NFL, why 40 times are not totally representative of a player's ability and how challenging it is to watch football while living on the West Coast.

Rick Hagedorn is a professional speed and sports performance coach and a former high school football and track and field sprint coach from Orange County, California. As a high school football coach, Coach Hagedorn is the proud owner of three CIF Championship rings and states that all three teams had two things in common: great players and great speed.  As a speed coach, he has privately trained many individual athletes and teams for sports requiring speed development. He not only trains high school athletes in getting ready for the Nike Combines, but also trains college football athletes in preparation for the NFL Draft and the various team Pro Days. He counts California CIF Champions in football, basketball and baseball, California State Champions in football and track and field, and a football seven time Hawaii State Champion as programs that have adopted the Speedburner approach to training.  As a Nike sponsored speed coach and a certified SPARQ national trainer in conjunction with Student Sports Magazine promoting Nike's "You're Faster Than You Think" speed initiative, the Nike Speed Showdown brought Speedburners to life, and convinced him to broaden his athlete base to accommodate the incredible demand for speed training. For that reason, Speedburners was founded in the summer of 2004.  Since then, the Speedburner system has spread across the country as he has visited many cities conducting speed camps and clinics. Coach Hagedorn says the most rewarding aspects about Speedburners is how well they are received in all of the cities, how much fun the athletes have while they're training, and seeing the difference it makes in their athletic performances in their respective sports.  Rick Hagedorn has written articles on speed development for Student Sports Magazine, Volleyball Magazine, SPARQ Magazine,and Athletes.com, the world's largest training site. He has been featured in Sports Illustrated for Kids Magazine, Local Hype Magazine, Nike SPARQ Training, CBS Sports Stars of Tomorrow, 1560 The Game Radio Show in Houston, ESPN Radio, ESPN Radio Hawaii, The Josh Pacheco Show, NBC Sports, NBC Sports Online, NBC Strikeforce Fights, America Online MMA, the Orange County Register, ABC Houston, and various newspapers around the country. Speedburners has been featured in video shoots for Local Hype Magazine, AquaHydrate water, 2XU compression gear, and an HBO training shoot featuring Ukrainian boxer Vasyl Lomachenko. He also has worked as a technical advisor for Nike on video, commercial and photo shoots and worked with LaDainian Tomlinson for action shots for ESPN the Magazine at the University of San Diego.  The belief that there is not a sport that isn't speed based is reflected in the athletes and sports represented in the Speedburner system. Sports and athletes in football, basketball, baseball, soccer, softball, lacrosse, swimming, golf, water polo, wrestling, mixed martial arts, volleyball, track and field, cross country, rugby, ice hockey, ice skating, dance, bobsled racing, and fitness, all employ speed.   For more information go to: www.speedburners.net Contact Coach:  Speedburners@gmail.com

This week's featured guest is Zach Whitman. He's the owner of 3sigmaathlete.com and is regularly featured on FieldGulls.com. After talking a bit about SPARQ scores in the past, we bring him on to give us the direct background into where these scores come from and what they mean for teams like the Seahawks. Zach talks about players who rate highly on the scale as well as one who ranks notoriously low and he offers reasons why that particular player is more athletic than some numbers may have shown him to be initially. We talk about wide receiver, offensive line and defensive back prospects the Seahawks could be looking at early in the draft and get into whether or not the Seahawks could look at drafting a quarterback. Zach explains why it makes sense to look at certain types of positions early in the draft while other positions can wait until later rounds. Follow Zach on Twitter: @zjwhitman
