In this episode of French Insider, Agathe Benoit, Chief Operating Officer and founding team member of Giftory, joins Sheppard Mullin attorneys Karl Buhler and Inès Briand to discuss the company's business model and the challenges of launching the “experience gifting” concept in the United States. What We Discussed in This Episode: What is Giftory, what are its core offerings, and where does it operate? What motivated the company to expand into the corporate gifting and B2B market? What challenges have been faced in bringing the experience gifting concept to the U.S.? Given the concept of experience gifting is relatively unfamiliar in the U.S., how did you initially connect with providers, engage customers, and assemble a team? Does Giftory offer the same experiences across all locations, or do offerings vary by city and state? What criteria does the company use when deciding to partner with a provider? How does Giftory ensure a premium experience for both the gift giver and the recipient? What are the advantages of purchasing through Giftory, rather than directly from the provider? What key achievements and challenges stand out in the process of building and expanding the business? What advice would you offer others looking to launch a business in the United States?

Patrick Lencioni: The 6 Types of Working Genius Patrick Lencioni is founder and president of The Table Group, a firm dedicated to protecting human dignity in the world of work, personal development, and faith. Pat is the author of twelve best-selling books with over seven million copies sold. The Five Dysfunctions of a Team remains a national best-seller and he's also the author of The 6 Types of Working Genius: A Better Way to Understand Your Gifts, Your Frustrations, and Your Team. Many of us have heard the invitation from Jim Collin's book _Good to Great_ to get the right people on the bus. But once the right people are on the bus, how to do you find the right seat for each person? On this episode, Pat and I discuss how to utilize the Working Genius model to find the right work for the right team members. Key Points When addressing burnout, the type of work someone does is more significant than the volume of work. Three stages of work are present for almost every team: ideation, activation, and implementation. A cup of coffee in an excellent thermos can stay hot an entire day — that's true of us when we're aligned with our working geniuses. Finding the right work for a team member is far easier than finding the right person culturally. Before you look elsewhere, be sure they are in the right seat. To fill gaps in your team's geniuses, you can hire, borrow, or find people where competence will suffice for now. Resist the temptation to immediately jump to hiring.

Donald Trump just threw down the gauntlet—calling for the ARREST of NYC Zohran Mamdani should he become mayor and refuse ICE request. It comes amid growing calls from Congress to investigate his communist roots and even DEPORT him. Rep. Andy Ogles is demanding accountability after reports Mamdani failed to disclose his allegiance during his citizenship application. PLUS: President Trump scores a MAJOR legislative victory—his “big, beautiful” bill has PASSED. It’s a huge win for the Trump base. And in a stunning twist, even CNN is being forced to admit the economy is on the upswing: job growth, low unemployment, falling inflation, and a strong stock market.

On today's Daily Fix: One of the original founding members of xbox, Laura Fryer, says that Xbox Hardware is “Dead” and expressed disappointment with the direction Xbox has taken since she was a part of the company. Xbox recently announced a partnership with ROG for their latest handheld, the ROG XBOX Ally X, which has ROG taking care of the hardware and Xbox the software. To her this is an indication that the company is no longer interested in hardware and is the beginning of an exit for them. She now says that she thinks Xbox Hardware is “dead”. Xbox also announced a partnership with AMD which hints at something hardware related being in the works. Will Xbox's 25th Year anniversary reveal what's next for XBOX? On a more positive note, the actor who voices Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed Black flag has dropped hints at an Assassins' Creed Black Flag remake being in the works. After the many leaks over the years this is the closest we've had to a confirmation. Ubisoft has yet to confirm that the game is in development. Also, EA Sports announces the revival of their College Basketball games after 16 years in a recent tweet. The announcement comes after the NCAA lifted the restrictions over college players being able to earn income from their image and likeness while maintaining an amateur status.
Federal court judges just got a major wake-up call—and so did the left’s interpretation of birthright citizenship—as a powerful new ruling shakes the legal landscape.

Elise Stefanik is stepping in to take on Kathy Hochul in the governor’s race. Plus, former MSNBC host Joy Reid embarrasses herself on CNN in a wild segment, and even top Democrats like Adam Schiff and Rahm Emanuel are now praising Trump’s Iran strategy. The tide is turning—and the left knows it. #news #SupremeCourt #Trish SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL: https://Youtube.com/TrishReganChannel Become a TEAM MEMBER to get special access and perks: ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBlMo25WDUKJNQ7G8sAk4Zw/join

The James Cancer Diagnostic Center has quickly become a valuable resource for the Central Ohio community and beyond. “Since we opened [in June 2020] we've had about 7,000 total visits … and about 40 percent have been diagnosed with some type of cancer,” said Tina Sowers, the Center's administrator. In this episode we are joined by Raquel Reinbolt, MD, medical director of the Center, Sowers, and Rupa Ghosh-Berkebile and Victoria Krogg, the Center's two advanced practice providers. The Center opened in the midst of the COVID epidemic. “The goal was to reach more patients and open a new front door to the James,” said Reinbolt, MD. She added people without a primary care physician can “self-refer to us and we can accommodate telemedicine visits. This leads to earlier diagnoses and better outcomes and quality of life. That's why we're such strong advocates for screenings and for not ignoring symptoms.” The Center is located on the 5th floor of the James Cancer Hospital on The Ohio State University campus. Suspecting you might have cancer, and then an actual diagnosis, can lead to heightened levels of anxiety. Ghosh-Berkebile and Krogg excel at helping patients understand their cancer diagnosis and to reduce some of their fears. “We help the patients understand what's happening to them and that we care about them,” Ghosh-Berkebile said.Krogg uses a whiteboard to describe complicated cancer and medical procedures. “It really helps, especially for patients who aren't familiar with medical terms, which is most patients. This job is rewarding because we help patients during a vulnerable time in their lives.” “And we let them know there is hope and we will get you to the right people at the James,” Ghosh-Berkebile added. The James Cancer Diagnostic Center is one of the first in the country, and other major cancer centers have taken notice. “Several of these cancer centers have reached out to us,” Sowers said. “They want to know how we're doing it and they want to learn from us.”

Liebes Team, ich hoffe, ihr habt euren Wetsuit dabei und eure Sonnenbrille, weil heute nehme ich euch einmal mehr mit in die Welt des Surfens. Sie hat auf dem Wasser fast alles gewonnen, was man so gewinnen kann und hat sich dann gleich doppelt selbständig gemacht: einerseits mit einer Company, die Rapid Surfboards herstellt (Rapid Surfen ist das auf stehenden Wellen) und andererseits mit Keynote-Speaking. Also ganz breit aufgestellt, alles selber aufgebaut - dafür schon mal riesen Respekt. UND es gibt noch einen Funfact, sie hat nämlich verhältnismäßig spät erst mit dem Surfen angefangen (mit 20 Jahren nämlich) und möchte deshalb mit ihrer Story inspirieren: man kann alles schaffen, wenn man sich nur reinhängt. In diesem Sinne: ganz viel Spaß mit der Geschichte von: Valeska Schneider! **Schnitt und Postproduktion: Andy Aksen** https://www.aksenmedia.de/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/andyaksen/

Do you praise departing team members—or subtly undermine them? In this episode, Shannon Waller breaks down why the way you talk about departures—good or bad—shapes your team's trust, your reputation, and even who'll want to work for you. Learn the hidden costs of venting, Dan Sullivan's graceful approach, and the “true, kind, necessary” rule for classy goodbyes. Download Episode Transcript Show Notes: How you talk about former team members defines your reputation—both inside and outside your company. Venting about someone who left may feel good in the moment, but it's a trust killer for your current team. If you speak poorly about others after they're gone, your current team members will begin to wonder what you're saying about them too. The way you handle goodbyes also tells your current team how you'll handle tough moments with them. Every departure is a chance to demonstrate emotional maturity, even when it's hard. Tough conversations should happen before someone departs. Great leaders turn departures into goodwill ambassadors, not burned bridges. Dan Sullivan's magic phrase: “People leave for their reasons, not ours.” A-players avoid companies with a reputation for badmouthing former employees. If you can't say something genuinely positive about a departure, silence is the wiser choice.
