A researcher, Edtech expert, and PhD candidate studying the intersection of AI, learning, and human experience, Kris brings a rare combination of academic rigor and real-world application to the question every principal is quietly asking: is all this technology actually helping? His work with Play Piper puts him at the front lines of how kids interact with screens — and what happens when that interaction goes wrong. Kris has been studying and speaking about screen usage in learning environments since 2013, long before most districts had a policy on the subject. AI policy still doesn't exist in most school districts in 2026. Meta and YouTube just lost a major court case over intentionally building products harmful to kids. And the principals who bought Edtech tools during COVID are still living with implementations they never had time to design properly. Kris returns to the RuckusCast to name the problem clearly: technology in schools is being treated as the experience instead of a tool within the experience — and that distinction is costing students more than anyone wants to admit.

There is a con called the Spanish Prisoner. A letter arrives from a stranger: a wealthy man sits in a foreign jail, and for a small advance to free him, he will reward you many times over. The trick is at least four hundred years old. It is also, give or take a few details, the email sitting in your spam folder this morning. I keep that in mind whenever someone tells me cybercrime is a technology problem. The tools change. The mark does not. We are still robbed through the same prehistoric wiring: a flash of fear, a moment of greed, a decision made in panic before the slow part of the brain wakes up. That is the thread I pulled on with Sarah Armstrong-Smith at InfoSecurity Europe. Sarah spent nearly thirty years in cyber and crisis leadership, was Chief Security Advisor at Microsoft, and now runs Secure Horizons. She has written two books on the human side of all this and sits on the UK Government Cyber Advisory Board. After all of it, she says the thing most people in her position will not say out loud: whatever we are doing is not working. More tools, more money, more people, more AI, and the problem keeps getting worse. Attack, wake-up call, attack, wake-up call. How many wake-up calls, she asks, does anyone need? I asked what keeps her up at night. She described an industrial accident on the scale of 9/11, triggered through a network: the first time a cyber incident kills people in numbers. We have been lucky so far. She doubts luck is a plan. The industry loves a big number, and the number is exactly where the human disappears. X million records stolen, Y terabytes gone. The day before, my friend Geoff White sat in this same chair and described a ransomware attack that shut down a hospital, which meant a woman missed the cancer appointment she had counted on. That is an Armageddon, and it has a name and a face. Sarah, as it happens, knows Geoff's work well enough to carry a line from him on the back of her book. The human element keeps finding the same small circle of people willing to talk about it. So how do we move this from a line item to a fact of society? Her answer is collective resilience. There is no prize for being the last one standing, because we are all wired into the same supply chain, the same dependencies, the same brittle web. And the smallest businesses, the ones without a war chest to ride out the storm, are the ones we discuss the least. Then a statistic. Close to half of all crime in the UK is now fraud or cyber. Around one percent of policing is pointed at it. Read those two numbers again. We fund what we can see, and we want officers on the street because a visible patrol both deters the thief and reassures the neighbourhood. The crime that actually empties our accounts happens somewhere we have agreed not to look. Follow the money, Sarah says, and you rarely stop at one criminal's pocket. It pays for the next thing: drugs, weapons, and more often than people imagine, the trafficking of human beings. Will AI save us? She did not flinch. Whatever you build to detect, the other side uses to evade. The asymmetry holds. Technology is part of the answer and never the whole of it, because the problem was never only technical. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry the person behind the number: the one who misses the appointment, the small shop that never reopens. We leave behind the fantasy that a clever enough machine will spare us the harder work, which is teaching a whole society to recognize the Spanish Prisoner when it arrives, wearing this year's technology. Sarah's books are linked below, with a second edition on the way. Geoff's conversation is part of this same coverage. And if you want more of these, the newsletter lives at marcociappelli.com.

The Lemurian energy has come and gone from my life several times since 2006, but this article is about a physical visit Larry and I had with the Lemurians and I'm sharing it in preparation for our June 2023 Class “Lemurian Reconnection”.Back in 2014, Larry and I went to Lemuria with two Spanish ladies.The place we entered Lemuria was at “Monastery Santa Maria de Montserrat”, a magnificent monastery at the edge of majestic mountains located about 45km, 28 miles, northwest of Barcelona, Spain.We had held an event in Barcelona at the time, and also planned a visit to the well known Lemurian portal in Montserrat. There are Lemurian portals at various locations around the planet.The Monastery had been built on the old location of a large Lemurian portal. But that portal had since been closed, and smaller portals are still in place in various locations on the mountains around the monastery.The monastery itself was an example of the typical divine energy leaching system. Technology that is used to absorb the individual's awe and inspiration felt from being exposed to the larger than life energy of the sacred spots churches, abbeys, cathedrals, monasteries and convents are built upon. So, nothing new to write home about that part of the visit.I had visited the portal in 2012 with Daniela and a portal keeper we met at the monastery who “just happened to be there that day” and had confirmed the location of the most accessible portal. So I knew where that portal was and was able to take us there in 2014.Larry, the ladies and I left the monastery courtyard and followed a well trodden, nicely built path up the mountain where I had found the portal two years earlier.Inelia's Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.We had to walk quite some distance before arriving at the portal. It was literally on the path and there were pillars and seats on the edge of the path on that spot. We sat down, Larry, myself and the two ladies, and closed our eyes. I scanned the portal and “knocked” to see if there was anyone there and could we have a visit. I received the message that there was no one there to open it, but there were people on the way to meet us, and to come back in a while. I don't exactly remember how long we had to wait.We continued up the mountain and enjoyed the views, the company and interesting conversation. At the allotted time, we returned and sat on the stone seats on the edge of the path and closed our eyes.After we sat there a while, there was a massive crack sound, like a giant boulder had just crashed on the path beside us. We opened our eyes confused because there was no boulder, no evidence whatsoever that anything physical had just occurred. What followed was the typical experience many people have, when traveling to Lemuria.The two ladies had laid down on the stone benches and were fast asleep. Larry rubbed his eyes and saw a young couple walking past us on the path. He got very mad at them because, in his words, she was hundreds of years old and he was super young. He said “What is she doing with him, she's much too old for him!!” They actually looked like a regular normal couple, no obvious age difference really.I looked at Larry's arms, they were now bruised. He had hand mark bruises near his wrists. I checked his legs and the same marks were visible near his feet. His phone, which was disconnected to all networks, had the time as 11pm, but it was only 4pm in reality. The phone then converted to the right time when he took it off airplane mode which he had turned on when we arrived to save battery usage for use as a camera and clock. It had worked perfectly before and after the incident, yet while disconnected from the network it had measured 7 hours more time passing than the actual time wasHe was also starving and thirsty, although we had eaten just an hour earlier. One of the ladies said that she felt more rested than she had in a long time, and she was also very, very hungry. The other lady and I were not hungry at all, and we were rather tired.This all made sense after I closed my eyes and pulled up the memories of what had just happened. Our memories had been cleared of the events, but there were remnants of it.Before I said anything, one of the ladies said that she must not remember anything as it would be too painful for her to do so. Her daily life would lose all importance and she wouldn't be able to continue in her present life if she did. Her words were urgent, powerful, with deep conviction. The other lady said she thought she had had a nice nap. And Larry just got angry again.I waited until later to tell Larry about what I remembered of the incident.We indeed had visited with the Lemurians. And, yes, life in our part of the world lost a lot of color, flavor and meaning when I let the memories resurface. It was not easy.This is what I saw: as we were met at the portal, the Lemurians took us individually into their space. This was because, in their experience, when a group comes into their reality, each person can behave very, very differently and they like to be able to gently wake them (if the person chooses to do so), and deal with what happens in a gentle way. After the person gets their footing and deals with the experience, they are then introduced to the welcoming party. There is also food, and if wanted the person can have a tour of technologies or other things.The bruises on Larry's arms and legs had happened because they had to hold him down as he became very violent when he woke up there and I was not around. It got very out of control.One of the ladies had indeed stayed in the welcoming room and simply slept through the whole experience. The other lady, the one who said she did not want to remember, spent the time exploring, chatting and eating the delicious and colorful, life filled food they had prepared for us.When I reported our visit at a public level back then, many people asked me about their technology, did they have free energy? Stuff like that. But those types of things were not in my mind to ask at the time. I was more interested in their cooking, the fabric their clothes were made of and also their makeup. I was interested in their social discourse, how they communicated, why they had split from us, and how they managed society. Their lifespans, health, family structures, cities and such.The Lemurians are back in my awareness now, and Larry and I are giving a class about them which will include an exercise for us to reestablish our high-frequency links to them.IneliaThe discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

What if you could make music with anything around you? Fruit, water, human skin, or even the weight of objects on a kitchen scale? That's the question Playtronica has been answering for over a decade   This week on the podcast, Adam McHeffey sits down with co-founders Sasha Pas and Aglaya Nosova to explore how they built one of the most creative and community-driven companies in music technology today.   Playtronica makes accessible music instruments that turn everyday objects into musical interfaces, no music theory required. Their products, including Touchme, Biotron, Orbita, and their newest release Scales, have gone viral across social media for their playful, tactile approach to music making. But behind the viral moments is a deeply intentional philosophy: remove the barrier of "are you a musician?" and let curiosity do the rest.   In this conversation, we get into how Playtronica grew a loyal global community through creator partnerships and influencer strategy, what their installations with luxury brands like Hermès taught them about creativity and access, and why the form factor of an instrument matters far less than the feeling it creates. Sasha and Aglaya also share practical advice for music tech entrepreneurs looking to break through on social media and build communities that last.   The news Merck Mercuariadis on Hipgnosis, vindication, and his next move.

A year ago the data centre conversation was about scale. Increasingly it is about what happens when the announcements meet the physical grid. New capacity is being announced at roughly 435 megawatts a month, enough to power a city of 400,000 people, but two-thirds of that committed load tends to disappear the moment utilities ask for a financial commitment behind it. AI training facilities create load profiles that drop 30% in five minutes, or 190 megawatts in three. The grid's mechanical inertia is retiring just as hyperscaler ambition accelerates, and regulation is lagging on both sides of the meter.In this episode, interim host Bridget van Dorsten returns the microphone to host Sylvia Leyva Martinez. The two recap six months of the show through clips from Chris Seiple (Wood Mackenzie), Tom Falcone (Large Public Power Council), Akeel Bhateja (Bloom Energy), Kay Aikin (Dynamic Grid), Kristina Carlquist and Christian Payerl (ABB), Shannon Miller (Mainspring Energy) and Nick Chaset (Octopus US), and map out the questions that will shape Sylvia's return.The central tension of the past six months: announcements are racing ahead, but utilities, regulators and the physical grid cannot move at hyperscaler speed. A data centre can be built in two years. New generation takes five to ten. That mismatch is why developers have stopped waiting on the grid: 35% of US data centre project capacity announced in 2025 was planned with around-the-meter generation, and 92% of bridge prime power deals are now struck before the end tenant is signed, inverting the usual logic of infrastructure development. But collocated power is still, in Bridget's framing, a science project. The load behaviour demands a coordinated portfolio: supercapacitors and UPS catching millisecond swings, synchronous condensers supplying inertia, fuel cells and linear generators offering modular, fuel-flexible bridging power as a hedge against demand risk. Nick Chaset's intervention cuts the other way: the UK already hosts the world's largest residential virtual power plant, and the cheapest megawatt is the one you don't build. The episode closes on duelling forward views, Tom Falcone's cooperative optimism against Kay Aikin's affordability death spiral, with the question of who ultimately holds the bag if the announcements don't materialise still unresolved.Sylvia sets out what she wants to explore next: the regulatory contradiction where utilities support bring-your-own-generation but cannot guarantee protection from curtailment; renewables supply constraints and the transformer and labour bottlenecks that affect every fuel source equally; the return of energy security as a framing now that "energy transition" has fallen out of political favour in the US; and the community opposition data centre developers are only beginning to grapple with.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we talk about how the consulting and research industry is facing a reckoning. Gartner, once a $42 billion empire built on telling companies which technologies to buy, has shed more than $30 billion in market value. Trading around $155 per share after peaking at $551 in November 2020, Gartner represents something far bigger than one company’s misfortune. It is a warning signal to every knowledge worker and consulting firm that the traditional model of acquiring and reselling existing knowledge is being quietly dismantled by artificial intelligence. The Pirate Street Journal recently broke down this shift through a category design lens, and the conclusions are both uncomfortable and urgent for anyone whose career is built around advice, analysis, or strategic guidance. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   When AI Gives Away What Consultants Used to Sell For decades, consulting firms like Gartner monetized a simple formula: gather knowledge, package it into reports and subscriptions, and charge companies handsomely for access. A $100,000 research subscription felt justified when getting that knowledge required significant time and access. That equation has fundamentally changed. The moment a business leader can ask an AI which CRM platform or security stack to buy and receive a well-reasoned, sourced answer in seconds for free, the traditional research subscription starts looking like a fax machine. As strategy thinker Roger Martin has noted, true strategy represents only about 3% of what large consulting firms actually produce. The remaining 97% is largely benchmarking, gap analysis, and best practices work, exactly the kind of structured, retrospective analysis that AI now handles effortlessly.   The Only Consulting Work AI Cannot Replace What separates truly valuable strategic advice from commoditized knowledge is judgment. Courage. Wisdom. The ability to make a call when the spreadsheet offers no clear answer and the outcome remains genuinely uncertain. These are the qualities that have always driven the most important strategic wins, and they are precisely what AI cannot replicate or monetize anytime soon. Consider how often the best strategic decisions required someone to say “I believe this is the right direction” without proof. Timing a market entry too early, betting on a consumer behavior before it becomes mainstream, or designing an entirely new category rather than competing within an existing one all demand human conviction. The consultants who have consistently done this well rarely stay in advisory roles for long. They move into the arena, become entrepreneurs, or deploy their own capital because genuine foresight commands far greater economics than a consulting retainer.   What This Means for Knowledge Workers and the Consulting Profession Gartner’s market cap decline is not simply a story about one company failing to adapt. It is a broader signal to every knowledge worker that the value of their value has shifted. Technology does not take jobs outright. It relocates where value gets created. The professionals who repackage existing knowledge are seeing that value erode fast. The professionals who can create genuinely new knowledge, new frameworks, new categories, new experiences, are seeing their value rise. This distinction matters enormously for how consultants should think about their own positioning. Firms that continue to offer benchmarking, retrospective market summaries, and structured best practices comparisons are directly competing with AI at a game AI will eventually win. The consultants who build practices around future-oriented, judgment-heavy, courageous strategic work are the ones whose services will remain irreplaceable, and whose market caps, whether literal or metaphorical, will reflect a world that still believes in their future.

Randal Thames joins me to explore a question that's becoming harder to ignore:What happens when the skills, systems, and assumptions that built your success stop being enough for what comes next?We started with a simple observation.Most people think reinvention happens after disruption.But the people who thrive rarely wait that long.They see change coming before it becomes obvious.Randal brings a unique perspective from decades of leadership, innovation, and helping organizations navigate technological shifts that are reshaping industries faster than most leaders realize.This isn't a conversation about predicting trends.It's about recognizing inevitabilities.We explore why technological disruption follows patterns, how AI is accelerating change across every industry, why waiting for certainty is often the riskiest decision, and what separates people who adapt from those who get left behind.And maybe most importantly—Why the future doesn't arrive all at once.It arrives gradually, rewarding those who prepare before everyone else sees what's coming.TL;DRThe future rewards preparation, not predictionMost disruption happens gradually before it becomes obviousAI is accelerating change across nearly every industryReinvention is easier when it's a choice rather than a necessityTechnology creates both value creation and value destructionTiming matters as much as visionThe biggest opportunities often emerge before mainstream adoptionLeaders must decide whether to react to change or position themselves ahead of itMemorable Lines“The future is built long before most people recognize it.”“Reinvention is a choice—until it becomes a requirement.”“You don't need to predict everything. You need to recognize what's inevitable.”“The biggest risk is assuming tomorrow will look like today.”“Technology doesn't just create winners. It reshapes entire industries.”“Most people wait for certainty. By then, the opportunity is gone.”“The future belongs to people willing to move before everyone else agrees.”GuestRandal Thames — leadership strategist, innovator, and advisor focused on helping organizations and individuals navigate technological change and long-term transformation.Known for his work around innovation, strategic thinking, future-focused leadership, and helping people position themselves ahead of emerging shifts rather than reacting after disruption has already occurred.Why This MattersMost people think change arrives suddenly.It doesn't.The signs are usually there years in advance.Industries shift.Technology evolves.Consumer behavior changes.And while most people wait for certainty, the people creating the future are already moving.That's why reinvention matters.Not because change is coming.Because it's already happening.The real question isn't whether your industry will evolve.It's whether you'll recognize the shift early enough to evolve with it.Because the leaders who thrive in the next decade won't necessarily be the smartest.They'll be the ones willing to rethink who they are, what they do, and where the world is headed before everyone else catches up.

The last six months of consistent classroom teaching has reminded me of an important lesson: Students are more capable than they think. In reading, writing, and math, many times what our students need aren't intensive lessons covering specific steps for success, but rather repeated opportunities to achieve, to practice doing important skills even if they do it poorly early on, and a chance to see their own growth over time.It is a beautiful thing to see a student learn a new skill, and it is a satisfying moment for everyone when that student realizes he or she is capable of learning beyond what they expected for themselves.Show Notes: https://bit.ly/4aRIEzw

Zach Harrell, Director of Insights and Analysis, Army Applications Laboratory, joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss how the U.S. Army acquires autonomy and brings cutting-edge technology into the hands of soldiers as fast as possible.The bottleneck in defense autonomy is rarely the technology. It is the acquisition process, the decades of requirements documents and program cycles that slow everything down. AAL exists to break that pattern, broadening the Army's access to the commercial industrial base and capitalizing on the agility of small and non-traditional companies that have never worked with the Department of War.To do that, AAL experiments with process rather than hardware. Their DevX Marketplace lets any company upload a six-minute pitch video, no military ID required, and a passing submission satisfies the competition requirement for contracting, opening a door for the rest of the Army to potentially buy that technology without running a separate solicitation.Autonomous bridging is the proof of what that approach unlocks. Rather than building a new system, AAL backed an autonomy kit that retrofits the Army's existing bridging equipment, letting sections steer and link themselves into position. The payoff in human terms, is a roughly 90% reduction in the soldiers exposed during one of the most dangerous tasks combat engineers perform.With the FY2027 budget requesting $54.6 billion dollars for autonomous warfare and Austin emerging as a defense tech hub, the future of Army technology will depend less on what gets built and more on the Army's willingness to adopt it at the lowest burden and lowest cost, to the greatest effect.Episode Chapters00:00 The AAL Mission: Getting Technology to Soldiers Faster03:44 Inside the DevX Marketplace and the Six-Minute Pitch07:41 Autonomous Bridging12:17 The Connected Battlefield16:01 Department of War $54.6 Billion Autonomy Budget21:37 Learning from the Battlefield29:19 Supply Chain Risk31:57 How AAL Invests: Technical Risk, Military Utility, and Moonshots40:55 How to Work With AAL43:12 The Future of Technology in the U.S. Army44:29 AUTNMY AI--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy is the leading applied intelligence platform covering the convergence of automation, autonomy, and the Autonomy Economy.™.Through our podcasts, newsletter, and proprietary applied intelligence, we set the narrative for institutional investors, industry executives, and policymakers navigating the convergence of automation, autonomy, and economic growth.Join institutional investors and industry leaders who read This Week in The Autonomy Economy every Sunday.

Markets continue to recover from the recent 4.5% correction, holding above the 20-day moving average and setting up a potential run toward new all-time highs. Relative strength is improving, momentum indicators are beginning to reverse higher, and a new buy signal could provide additional fuel for the rally as we move into historically strong July seasonality. In today's pre-market update, we examine why the recent pullback may have cleared the path for further gains, how declining oil prices are helping support risk assets, and why the reopening of global energy supply routes could create additional downward pressure on crude prices. We also review the latest sector rotation trends. Technology, AI, momentum, and high-beta stocks continue to attract capital, while energy stocks weaken alongside falling oil prices. However, some of the market's largest mega-cap stocks are becoming increasingly oversold, raising the possibility of another rotation beneath the surface. Are investors chasing momentum at exactly the right time, or is the next market rotation already beginning?

There's great momentum in moving to greater levels of agentic automation, but there are critical areas where deeper consideration is required in how it's applied. In capital markets, trust is a foundational element on which transactions are built and Krisha Vinjamuri, Head of Technology, Enterprise Solutions at S&P Global Market Intelligence, joins host Eric Hanselman to talk about how this can be achieved and the important aspects of successful implementations. One of the useful things in capital markets, is that there are open standards on which to base data ontologies. It's not exciting, but it's the basis of a semantic foundation that can not only ensure that there is depth in data definitions, but can also reduce errors generated by agents. The larger question that looms beyond the construction of foundational architecture, is how the operational envelope that bounds agentic action will be established. This has to be built from policy definitions that take those actions into account. There is great promise and much work that needs to be done.

In this episode of The Fearless Mindset Podcast, Host Mark Ledlow interviews Eddie Sorrells, newly named president of ASIS and CEO of a security company,Eddie shares insights on how the security industry has evolved since COVID, highlighting the growing role of technology as a force multiplier and the increasing importance of cyber resilience in today's risk environment.The discussion explores the convergence of physical and cyber security, the emerging threats posed by artificial intelligence, phishing attacks, and digital deception. Eddie also draws on his experience as an attorney to explain legal liability in the security industry, emphasizing the critical importance of training, insurance, documentation, and risk management.Mark and Eddie discuss how boutique security firms can compete against larger organizations by focusing on responsiveness, customer service, and operational excellence. They also preview the upcoming Global Security Exchange (GSX) conference in Atlanta and discuss the value of networking, professional development, and servant leadership within the security community.Learn about all this and more in this episode of The Fearless Mindset Podcast.KEY TAKEAWAYSCyber resilience is the new security mindset — Organizations must prepare not only to prevent cyber incidents but also to recover quickly when they occur.Technology is a force multiplier, not a replacement for people — COVID accelerated adoption of security technologies that enhance operational effectiveness.AI is transforming the threat landscape — Voice cloning, deepfakes, and sophisticated phishing attacks make traditional warning signs harder to detect.Training is your best legal defense — Proper training, documentation, and compliance can significantly reduce organizational liability.Security companies must understand risk beyond physical protection — Legal exposure, insurance requirements, and contractor oversight are critical business considerations.Responsiveness wins business — Clients value organizations that answer calls, solve problems quickly, and make them feel supported.Service outperforms marketing — A strong reputation built on consistent execution generates more referrals than any advertising campaign.Small firms can outperform larger competitors — Boutique organizations often have greater agility, stronger relationships, and faster decision-making.Professional relationships create long-term opportunities — Networking and maintaining authentic connections continue to drive industry growth.Servant leadership creates lasting impact — Great leaders focus on leaving organizations better than they found them.QUOTES "They don't use the phrase cyber security. They only talk about cyber resilience because it's going to happen." "What's suspicious anymore?" "The classic attorney answer is, 'It depends.'" "Make sure you train your staff, you're investing in that, and they're aware of those threats and how to handle themselves.""At the end of the day, a good service and a good product is going to shine through.""It's not about being perfect, it's about being responsive.""People are hungry for that level of service.""We just want to feel special when we call you.""The fastest way you're going to grow is through your team's professionalism and reputation in the field.""I want to make sure that I leave this position better than I found it."Get to know more about Eddie Sorrells through the link/s below.https://www.linkedin.com/in/eddie-sorrells-cpp-psp-pci-b376155/To hear more episodes of The Fearless Mindset podcast, you can go to https://the-fearless-mindset.simplecast.com/ or listen on major podcasting platforms such as Apple, Google Podcasts, Spotify, etc. You can also subscribe to the Fearless Mindset YouTube Channel to watch episodes on video.

"Almost as bad as it gets", said the Immigration Minister after a blistering report into a multi-million dollar failed tech upgrade. Erica Stanford has accused officials of misleading ministers over years, and indulging in creative accounting to stay under the radar. After a tortured seven-year saga the tech project has been scrapped with more than $30 million lost. An investigation has now been launched. Deputy Political Editor Craig McCulloch spoke to Lisa Owen.

Healthcare is filled with great ideas, promising technologies, and passionate clinicians, but why do so many innovation efforts fail? In this episode, Dale Ellicott joins Dr. Andrea Austin to explore what it really takes to create sustainable change in healthcare. From his early experiences introducing groundbreaking rehabilitation technologies to his current work at Rely Health, Dale shares lessons about resistance to change, organizational alignment, and the importance of putting patients first. Together, they discuss the realities of value-based care, the challenges clinicians face when navigating fragmented healthcare systems, and the growing role of AI in supporting, not replacing human connection. Dale explains how Rely Health combines agentic AI with human care navigators to help patients schedule appointments, access transportation, connect with primary care, and overcome barriers that often lead to poor outcomes and avoidable readmissions. The conversation offers practical guidance for clinicians, leaders, and innovators who want to move beyond pilot programs and build solutions that truly improve healthcare delivery. They discussed: How a values-based decision shaped Dale's career in healthcare innovation Why healthcare organizations struggle to adopt new technology The dangers of "pilotitis" and failed innovation projects How AI-powered care navigation improves patient follow-up Lessons for clinicians who want to become successful change-makers

In this episode of Clocking In: Voices of North Carolina Manufacturing, host Phil Mintz sits down with Conrad Leiva, Vice President of Ecosystems and Workforce Development at CESMII (The Smart Manufacturing Institute), to discuss how smart manufacturing is becoming more accessible to manufacturers of all sizes, no matter how long you've been manufacturing. Conrad shares how advances in affordable sensors, wireless technologies, and digital platforms are helping small and mid-sized manufacturers begin their Industry 4.0 journey without massive capital investments. He explains why smart manufacturing is about more than technology—it requires a cultural shift toward data-driven decision-making, enterprise-wide connectivity, and continuous improvement. The conversation also explores the powerful relationship between lean principles and digital technologies. Rather than choosing one approach over the other, manufacturers can achieve the greatest impact by combining lean methodologies with smart manufacturing tools and automation.

What if you could uncover hidden risks, assess facility conditions more accurately, and make smarter maintenance decisions—without disrupting operations?In an industry where safety, reliability, and uptime are critical, understanding the true condition of your facility can be challenging. Many grain facilities contain hard-to-access areas, aging infrastructure, and hidden structural conditions that are difficult to evaluate through traditional inspection methods alone. Yet waiting until problems become visible can lead to increased repair costs, unplanned downtime, and greater operational risk.In this episode of the Whole Grain Podcast, host Jim Lenz, Director of Global Education and Training for the Grain Elevator and Processing Society (GEAPS), sits down with Hayes Guillot, Inspection and Technology Specialist with Custom Concrete Specialists, to explore how modern inspection technologies are transforming the way grain facilities evaluate, maintain, and protect their assets.Drawing on his background in precision agriculture, drone technology, and facility inspections, Hayes explains how today's tools are providing facility owners and operators with unprecedented visibility into the condition of their structures. From interior and exterior drone inspections to ground penetrating radar (GPR), thermal imaging, and LiDAR technology, these solutions allow organizations to safely inspect areas that were once difficult, time-consuming, or costly to assess.Throughout the conversation, Hayes shares how technology is helping facilities identify potential issues earlier, reduce the need for confined-space entry, improve documentation, support data-driven decision-making, and establish a proactive approach to maintenance and capital planning. He also discusses how detailed reports, high-resolution imagery, video documentation, and advanced scanning technologies are helping maintenance teams, managers, engineers, and boards make more informed decisions with greater confidence.Whether you're responsible for operations, maintenance, engineering, safety, asset management, or strategic planning, this episode offers practical insights into how modern inspection technology is helping organizations move beyond reactive repairs and toward a safer, smarter, and more proactive future.Important LinksCustom Concrete Specialists https://www.ccsgrouponline.com/Previous Whole Grain Podcast Episode Featuring Cheyenne Wohlford, CEO & President of Custom Concrete Specialists Innovations in Grain Silo Maintenance: Drone Inspection Services https://www.geaps.com/news-publications/whole-grain-podcast/innovations-in-grain-silo-maintenance-drone-inspection-services-2/GEAPS Website https://www.geaps.com/GEAPS Credentialing Program https://www.geaps.com/training-education/credentials/Whole Grain Podcast https://www.geaps.com/wholegrainGrain Elevator and Processing Society champions, connects and serves the global grain industry and its members.
