About This Episode In this compelling episode of The Future of Work® Podcast, we dive into the transformative intersection of artificial intelligence, human‑centered automation and workplace evolution. We're joined by three industry trail‑blazers: Angela Hood, founder and CEO of ThisWay Global — a company that uses AI to mitigate bias, match talent and unlock human potential across thousands of organizations. Jeremy Fennema, a seasoned IT executive and fractional CTO, who brings over two decades of experience in digital transformation, agile innovation and applying AI inside enterprise workflows. And Ram Srinivasan, an executive consultant and AI adoption leader at JLL, MIT alumnus and author of The Conscious Machine, who explores how AI can amplify human potential rather than replace it. Together, they unpack critical topics for the future of work — how remote/virtual and in‑office working models will co‑exist, why AI adoption is non‑negotiable for knowledge workers, how organizational practices must evolve to manage bias and human‑centered systems, what the shifting skillsets are for tomorrow's workforce, and how companies can move beyond the hype of AI into measurable value. From talent sourcing and diversity ROI to developers, testers and QA in an AI‑augmented world, this conversation is rich with strategic insights and practical take‑aways for leaders, technologists and everyone working at the intersection of people and technology.
In this episode, I'm joined by the always insightful and globally-minded Dr. Vas Srinivasan, who recently built one of the most stunning orthodontic spaces in Southeast Queensland—right when the world said “don't.” From battling banks post-COVID to doubling down on patient experience, Vas shares the inspiring story of why he took the leap, what he learned, and how he's now positioned to dominate his local market—even against corporate competitors.We talk about fear, growth, AI-powered offices, why silent front desks are the future, and how to turn brushing stations into monitoring hubs. We also get into real estate side hustles, building partnerships outside of dentistry, and the importance of having income streams that work while you sleep. This is a must-listen for any orthodontist who's wondering if now is the time to play biggerQUOTES“If someone says they weren't scared building a practice like this—they're lying. I had to re-mortgage my house. But this dream had to come together.”— Dr. Vas Srinivasan“Side hustles are great. But please—don't do a restaurant. Don't do a nightclub. Find something that works even when you're asleep.”— Dr. Vas SrinivasanKey TakeawaysIntro (00:00)Vegemite vs. Tim Tams and Aussie hospitality (01:26)Vas's global journey: India → Minnesota → Sydney → Sunshine Coast (04:19)Why he rebuilt his practice at 48—and made it huge (08:27)Fear, funding struggles, and re-mortgaging his house (09:50)Building for the wow: concierge front desks & AI systems (14:06)Turning brushing stations into Grin monitoring hubs (15:45)A shift away from aligners—and why patients are saying no (17:09)Don't confuse patients: how to present treatment options better (19:27)Real estate side hustle with his ex-TC as a partner (21:35)The “low-cost braces clinic” model that fuels his main practice (23:15)Why now is the time to invest in yourself and your future (25:47)The Vanguard announcement + what's next (26:59)Additional ResourcesIf you've been waiting for the “perfect time” to level up your space, your systems, or your side hustle—this episode is your permission slip. Fear and growth go hand in hand, but so does freedom when you build it intentionally.
Why is it so difficult to account for the role of identity in literary studies? Why do both writers and scholars of Indian English literature express resistance to India and Indianness? What does this reveal about how non-Western literatures are read, taught, and understood? Drawing on years of experiences in classrooms and on U.S. university campuses, Ragini Tharoor Srinivasan explores how writers, critics, teachers, and students of Indian English literatures negotiate and resist the categories through which the field is defined: ethnic, postcolonial, and Anglophone.Overdetermined: How Indian English Literature Becomes Ethnic, Postcolonial, and Anglophone (Columbia UP, 2025) considers major contemporary authors who disavow identity even as their works and public personas respond in varied ways to the imperatives of being “Indian.” Chapters examine Bharati Mukherjee's rejection of “ethnic” Americanness; Chetan Bhagat's “bad English”; Amit Chaudhuri's autofictional literary project; and Jhumpa Lahiri's decision to write in Italian, interspersed with meditations on the iconicity of the theorists Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Homi Bhabha, and Edward Said. Through an innovative method of accented reading and sharing stories and syllabi from her teaching, Srinivasan relates the burdens of representation faced by ethnic and postcolonial writers to the institutional and disciplinary pressures that affect the scholars who study their works. Engaging and self-reflexive, Overdetermined offers new insight into the dynamics that shape contemporary Indian English literature, the politics of identity in literary studies, and the complexities of teaching minoritized literatures in the West. Ragini Tharoor Srinivasan is assistant professor of English at Rice University. Her books include the essays What is We? (2025) and the coedited Thinking with an Accent: Toward a New Object, Method, and Practice (2023), and her public writing has appeared in numerous venues. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Susman Godfrey has shown it's willing to take on high-risk, high-reward lawsuits with unconventional fee structures. Its leaders say this risk appetite is ingrained in the firm's culture. "When we vote to take a case, it is a case of the firm," Kalpana Srinivasan, a managing partner at the firm, said on our podcast, On The Merits. "You hear sometimes there may be other places where there are a couple of partners who are trying to do contingent work or doing something that may be different from the traditional financial model of that firm, and then the success or failure of that matter can be very much tied to that partner. We want to take on risk as a firm." Srinivasan and her co-managing partner, Vineet Bhatia, spoke to Bloomberg Law editor Jessie Kokrda Kamens about their firm's unique culture that shies away from lateral hires, and also about why they bristle at being described as a "litigation boutique." This conversation is a part of our Leading Law Firms project, in which we score law firms using more than just traditional metrics like a firm's bottom line. Throughout this month, we've been sharing interviews with the leaders of other firms like McDermott Will & Emery, Cahill Gordon & Reindel, and DLA Piper.

Maya opens up about growing up in a tight-knit family, her early struggles in school, and the transformative experience of attending Mind High School, where student-led projects and community focus helped shape her leadership approach. Her journey took her through anthropology, outdoor recreation, hospitality, and eventually into the world of home remodeling—where she now leads with authenticity, collaboration, and compassion. Lorraine and Maya dive into the power of self-discovery, the impact of mentorship, and the importance of building systems that empower teams rather than micromanage them. Maya also shares her hiring philosophy, her commitment to representation in the trades, and how she uses her leadership platform to encourage young women to pursue careers in construction. This episode is a powerful reminder that leadership doesn't always come with a title—and that following your own path can lead to incredible impact.

“When you talk about inferencing, you have a real application. The application has data. The application has compute. The application needs to interface with other third-party applications. So, you need a full general-purpose cloud to coexist with a GPU cloud to power inferencing application at scale,” DigitalOcean CEO Paddy Srinivasan tells Bloomberg Intelligence senior technology analyst Anurag Rana. In this episode of Tech Disruptors, the two discuss DigitalOcean's edge as a digitally-native cloud service provider in a market served largely by the three hyperscalers. In this conversation, Srinivasan also touches upon the company's differentiated approach to capital spending, AI inferencing vs. training and which pockets still have a good growth runway.
Everyone speaks with an accent, but what is an accent? Thinking with an Accent: Toward a New Object, Method, and Practice (UC Press, 2023) introduces accent as a powerfully coded yet underexplored mode of perception that includes looking, listening, acting, reading, and thinking. This volume convenes scholars of media, literature, education, law, language, and sound to theorize accent as an object of inquiry, an interdisciplinary method, and an embodied practice. Accent does more than just denote identity: from algorithmic bias and corporate pedagogy to migratory poetics and the politics of comparison, accent mediates global economies of discrimination and desire. Accents happen between bodies and media. They negotiate power and invite attunement. These essays invite the reader to think with an accent—to practice a dialogical and multimodal inquiry that can yield transformative modalities of knowledge, action, and care. Thinking with an Accent won the American Comparative Literature Association's 2024 Rene Wellek Prize for Best Edited Collection.

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 20th of May and here are the headlines.1. India's Global Anti-Terror Diplomacy DriveIndia has launched a major diplomatic outreach, sending seven multi-party delegations to 32 countries to highlight its fight against terrorism, particularly from Pakistani soil. Briefed by the Ministry of External Affairs, the teams will explain India's military response after the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor. PM Modi framed the doctrine as part of a global anti-terror campaign, stating there will be zero tolerance for terror sheltered by “nuclear blackmail.” The goal: convince the world not to equate India, a terror victim, with Pakistan, a terror perpetrator.2. TMC Replaces Yusuf Pathan With Abhishek BanerjeeAfter initially rejecting the Centre's move to include Yusuf Pathan in its foreign outreach delegations, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) has nominated Abhishek Banerjee instead. The switch came after Union Minister Kiren Rijiju spoke to TMC chief Mamata Banerjee. Abhishek, the party's general secretary, will now join the anti-terror diplomatic push. Separately, TMC is sending its own delegation, led by Manas Bhunia, to Jammu and Kashmir to support victims of cross-border terror. Earlier, Pathan, a cricketer-turned-MP, had been named without TMC's consultation, prompting the initial protest.3. Heavy Rains Disrupt Bengaluru; Red Alert IssuedBengaluru faced severe disruptions on Tuesday after intense pre-monsoon thundershowers caused widespread flooding and traffic chaos. The India Meteorological Department has issued a red alert for the city and Karnataka, forecasting heavy rain, thunderstorms, and lightning through May 26. Commuters struggled, with some taking two hours to travel just 7 km. The Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre has echoed warnings of extremely heavy rainfall and advised caution. The relentless downpour left several areas waterlogged, reigniting concerns over the city's poor infrastructure and monsoon preparedness.4. Veteran Nuclear Scientist M R Srinivasan Dies at 95M R Srinivasan, former Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission and a pioneer of India's nuclear program, passed away on Tuesday at age 95. He is survived by his wife and daughter. Srinivasan played a key role in developing India's indigenous nuclear capabilities, working alongside legendary scientist Dr Homi Bhabha. Honoured with the Padma Vibhushan, his death marks the end of a historic era in Indian science. District Collector Lakshmi Bhavya Tanneeru paid floral tributes to the distinguished scientist's mortal remains.5. Netanyahu Offers Conditional End to Gaza WarIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he's willing to end the Gaza war if Hamas agrees to strict terms, including disarming. His statement comes amid rising international pressure, with the UK, France, and Canada threatening sanctions over Israel's latest Gaza offensive. Netanyahu slammed these nations for demanding a Palestinian state, calling it a reward for “genocidal attacks on Israel.” In a joint statement, the Western leaders criticized Israel's denial of humanitarian aid to Palestinians, warning that it could violate international law if continued.That's all for today. This was the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express.
