“Entrepreneurship is in everyone. It just gets expressed in different ways.” Luke Williams Show host Laurie Barkman welcomes Luke Williams, Founder/CEO of IdeaSkills and Clinical Associate Professor of Innovation and Design at NYU Stern School of Business. They discuss whether entrepreneurship can be taught and delve into the importance of fostering innovative mindsets within established companies. Luke shares insights from his book 'Disrupt' and discusses the balance between maintaining business continuity and introducing disruptive ideas. Luke also emphasizes the significance of learning over investment and provides advice for business owners struggling with innovation. The episode concludes with Luke's journey from Australia to becoming an educator and innovation expert and his passion for creating more competent innovators. Takeaways: Continuously work on developing the capabilities needed to be competitive in the future alongside keeping the existing business running. This is crucial for maintaining a balance between today's needs and future opportunities. Create diverse teams to ensure a wide range of perspectives and ideas. This diversity can foster innovative thinking and help develop balanced solutions that might not emerge from a homogenous group. Encourage the influx of fresh, disruptive thinking and assess the value of ideas based on how much they help the organization learn and adapt. Develop a “test and learn” budget to experiment with new ideas without the pressure of immediate returns. Allow small-scale testing of innovative ideas to see what works and can then be scaled up.

With NAB's expert support, Sam's team has successfully navigated the complexities of succession while setting the business up for long-term success.

Last September, we hosted a 21 Hats Brainstorm podcast episode in which BaLeigh Waldrop told us that she was considering buying the family business from her parents. BaLeigh, who has been serving as chief financial officer of the Miller Waldrop furniture business that her great grandfather started, recognized that she was being offered a remarkable opportunity, but she had some concerns. Sales have been off of late, the business is predominantly brick-and-mortar, and most importantly, she would have to work out an ownership structure with her younger brother. The 21 Hats crew of owners and entrepreneurs who joined the brainstorm asked a lot of good questions and offered smart suggestions. “I think what's actually incredibly hard about this whole thing is that I love it,” says BaLeigh. “I love wearing the different hats. I love owning a business in a small community.” We left it that BaLeigh would get back to us once she'd figured things out. In this week's episode, she returns to tell Jay Goltz and the rest of us what she's decided.

InvestOrama - Separate Investment Facts from Financial Fiction
I love referring to the HBO show Succession, it's one of the greatest dramas, I would go as far as to compare it with my all-time favourite, “The Sopranos”.And… it truly is a masterclass in how NOT to handle estate planning. Family feuds, intense legal battles, and being reckless with your assets are great for drama, but you don't want any of that in real life.Estate planning is an(other) area where the advice model is broken; it's a wealth management issue that lawyers typically handle. So, it doesn't receive the holistic approach to wealth, tax, and family-specific considerations it deserves.I spoke with Gene Farrell, the CEO and President of Vanilla, a company that has raised $84 million to build the technology that changes that.This episode is from a new Wealthtech series.LINKSVanilla website: https://www.justvanilla.com/Related Wealthtech episode: Wealth Engineered - Quantifeed
The exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, the 14th Dalai Lama, marked his 90th birthday earlier this month with an announcement that his successor as Tibetan Buddhism's most senior religious figure would be a reincarnation, to be identified after his death by the staff of his office in Dharamsala in northern India — where he has lived since fleeing Tibet in 1959 after a failed uprising against Chinese rule. The announcement is likely to set up a clash with Beijing, which says it alone has the right to confirm the selection of the next Dalai Lama, and points to its possession of historical relics, including a golden urn from the Qing dynasty traditionally used to select the reincarnations of senior lamas. So how will Tibetans inside and outside China respond if two different Dalai Lamas are nominated? Could the exiled community abandon the current Dalai Lama's emphasis on seeking only autonomy for Tibet under Chinese rule? And how will this affect India, which has offered shelter to the Tibetan exiled administration, but has recently been seeking to improve its relations with Beijing? Tsering Shakya, professor of Tibetan history at the University of British Columbia, and Robbie Barnett, professorial research associate at SOAS and former professor of contemporary Tibetan studies at Columbia University, join us to share their thoughts.Photo by Norbu Gyachung________________________________________The views and opinions expressed on this podcast are those of the speakers and are not necessarily those of the SOAS China Institute.________________________________________SOAS China Institute (SCI) SCI Blog SCI on X SCI on LinkedIn SCI on Facebook SCI on Instagram ________________________________________Music credit: Sappheiros / CC BY 3.0

This week, Sam and Hannah have spent some serious time on the dock where they ... actually read the same book for once! Amazing. And it's maybe not a book you would have guessed. Plus, we've got a long-lost classic and a really fun summer read (even if it's about rich people. Again), and a good discussion of what makes a 14+ book. On the agenda this week: - "Dungeon Crawler Carl," by Matt Dinniman, which Sam and Hannah both decided they liked quite a bit, even though it's very much a "dude-bro" sort of book. It's a sensation. You should give it a shot. - "Best of All Worlds," by Kenneth Oppel, which is a well-targeted YA novel with an original set-up and a very sweet coming-of-age story. Also, set in Canada, which is fun. But is it really Canada?!? - "Ramona," by Helen Hunt Jackson, which is an absolute classic, and was once fully canon, but has sort of now been largely forgotten. Sam's here to tell you it's an important work of American literature and legitimately a must-read book in understanding the foundation of America. - "These Summer Storms," by Sarah MacLean, which Hannah describes as "if Emily Henry wrote a book of Succession (like, the television series)." Highly entertaining and good for the beach.

This week, in Episode 254, Jay Goltz, Mel Gravely, and special guest John Abrams have a frank conversation about what business owners can do to avoid what John calls the “fat-wallets-and-broken-hearts syndrome.” That's his term for what can happen when an owner sells to private equity and the company ends up getting stripped. Jay, Mel, and John all agree they want no part of that. They all would like to see their businesses continue on without them. And yet, in thinking about succession, they've chosen different paths. In a conversation sparked by the recent publication of John's book, From Founder to Future, we discuss those choices along with such issues as: why there are so few employee-owned businesses, whether they outperform other businesses, how you can finance the sale of a business to employees, whether the employee owners of an ESOP are truly owners, and whether a worker co-op model just might work for a hard-bitten, old-school owner like Jay Goltz.

The Potter Discussion: Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts and the Wizarding World Fandom
Send us a textIn this episode, we discuss the TV show's connection to the HBO show 'Succession' and how the filmmakers should take some inspiration from it. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:· 3:30 Different cinematography. Longer shots, less music, and more personal moments can really make a difference in how we understand the show. Now that the audience in older and has a better handle on the story, a more sophisticated portrayal could go a long way.· 15:05 Focusing on relationships. Further, how relationships change. Succession follows a business family which is incredibly dysfunctional, and it is the relationships that really drive the story forward. Though Harry Potter isn't similar in that way, focusing on a relationship driven story could show us more of the characters we think we know. · 19:56 The day doesn't always have to be saved. If an episode ends on a huge downer, that might add something to the show.· 24:23 More on Voldemort's rise to power. We don't have a strong connection between Tom Riddle and Voldemort. Additionally, we only really see the inner workings of his life at the final few acts of the story. It is an interesting story we should see more of. Having anything you want to hear or say?

In this captivating episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I welcomes an unstoppable force in the world of finance, Victoria Woods—entrepreneur, wealth advisor, speaker, author, and the renowned Financial Diva. What makes Victoria's story so compelling isn't just her success in managing money for millionaires and billionaires—it's how she got there, and what she's teaching women everywhere about stepping into financial power. Victoria's journey began in humble, even challenging circumstances. Growing up poor, abandoned by her father at 11, she learned early how to hustle, survive, and eventually thrive. From organizing games for neighborhood kids to modeling for Montgomery Ward in exchange for school clothes, she was a born entrepreneur. But it was her uncanny ability to see opportunity where others saw limits that ultimately launched her into success. Women, It is Time To Master Your Money Her first “real” pivot came while working in retail. Rather than taking a promotion, she pitched a new concierge buying service to her boss—a bold move that soon had executives handing her their credit cards and letting her shop for their wardrobes. That fearless innovation caught the attention of a financial executive who saw something unique in Victoria: resilience, determination, and an uncanny knack for follow-through. He recruited her into the world of financial advising. Seven months later, Victoria took the leap—and never looked back. Now the founder and CEO of ChappelWood Financial Services in Edmond, Oklahoma, Victoria advises high-net-worth individuals, particularly women who are often underserved or underrepresented in wealth management. But her mission is broader: to educate and empower women about their finances, especially business owners who need to understand, not fear, their numbers. Watch our podcast video on YouTube here: Key Lessons from Victoria Woods on Women, Money and Mastering Your Future 1. Your Gut Is Your Superpower—But So Are Your Numbers. Victoria reminds listeners that while your instincts matter, success demands fluency in your financials. “If you're not comfortable with the numbers, you've got to get comfortable,” she says. “You should be able to read your profit and loss statements, understand your balance sheet, and question your accountant.” Her practical advice: take an accounting class—even if you're already running a company. Know your numbers or risk being run by them. 2. Don't Outsource What You Don't Understand. Too many women assume someone else—often a spouse—will handle their finances. Victoria pushes back. “90% of women will manage their own money at some point in their life,” she says. “You must know what you own, owe, spend, and invest.” Whether you're growing a business, selling one, or inheriting one, financial literacy is not optional. 3. Exit on Your Own Terms. One of Victoria's most powerful messages is about preparing for what's next. Succession planning, business exits, and legacy planning all require strategic thought before there's a crisis. “Don't plan in the middle of a tornado,” she says. “Start when the sun is shining.” She shares how she's guided women through inheriting family businesses, navigating complex buyouts, and staying strong in boardrooms full of skeptics. 4. Build Your Team with Intention. When hiring financial advisors, accountants, or legal professionals, Victoria encourages women to trust both their head and their heart. “Would you want to have dinner with this person every month?” she asks. Chemistry and clarity matter. Her book, It's All About the Money, Honey!, includes practical questions women should ask potential advisors—plus the answers they should expect to hear. 5. Serve First, Sell Second. At the heart of her success is a simple philosophy: be the easy button. Whether solving a client's complex tax issue or finding an international attorney for a property dispute, her focus is always service. That's how she built a practice with 100% retention and a global clientele. “Clients don't want more work,” she says. “They want someone who makes their lives easier.” You can read more in her book, "It's All About the Money, Honey," on Amazon. Why This Conversation about Money and Women Matters Now Women control more wealth today than at any time in history, and the number of women-owned businesses is soaring. Yet many still feel unprepared to manage that wealth with confidence. This episode is a powerful reminder that financial empowerment is about knowledge, confidence, and the courage to ask questions. As Victoria says, “Don't take advice from broke people—physically, financially, or spiritually.” Whether you're launching a startup, scaling a company, or planning a graceful exit, take time to get financially fluent. The future is female—and she should be well-funded. Learn More To learn more about Victoria Woods, visit ChappelWood.com or search for The Financial Diva online.

This week, Jemma and Marina tackle Venice's most OTT nuptials as Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez say “I do” amidst a spectacle that felt like a Succession spin-off. From helicopters to haute couture and a Vogue cover cameo, the ladies break down the eyebrow-raising moment, including Leo Di Caprio's terrible attempt at camouflage and a Dolce & Gabbana dress that could have Bezos in for a long night. But things turn darker, and dumber, with the U.S. Senate's passage of the “Big Bullsh*t Bill,” a legislative grenade lobbed straight at America's most vulnerable. Marina and Jemma break down the grim fallout: Medicaid slashed, clean energy sabotaged, food assistance gutted… all while millionaires snag tax cuts and ICE gets worryingly bloated. And just when it couldn't get more dystopian - enter Trump and Musk. Again. The MAGA soap opera gets spicier by the day with threats of deportation, party-splitting tantrums, and Elon hinting at a new political party. The ladies are living for the chaos - and if this feud reignites properly, the popcorn's already in the microwave.There's also a pudding from satirist Rosie Holt that's too pitch-perfect to miss. So pull up a gondola - because Jemma and Marina are taking no prisoners.Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcastPatreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcastYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawlTwitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetrawl.bsky.socialCreated and Produced by Jemma Forte & Marina PurkissEdited by Max Carrey
