Penn – 00:00 In this week’s In-Ear Insights, a few people have asked us the question, should I hire an AI expert—a person, an AI expert on my team—or should I try to grow AI expertise, someone as an AI leader within my company? I can see there being pros and cons to both, but, Katie, you are the people expert. You are the organizational behavior expert. I know the answer is it depends. But at first blush, when someone comes to you and says, hey, should I be hiring an AI expert, somebody who can help shepherd my organization through the crazy mazes of AI, or should I grow my own experts? What is your take on that question? Katie Robbert – 00:47 Well, it definitely comes down to it depends. It depends on what you mean by an AI expert. So, what is it about AI that they are an expert in? Are you looking for someone who is staying up to date on all of the changes in AI? Are you looking for someone who can actually develop with AI tools? Or are you looking for someone to guide your team through the process of integrating AI tools? Or are you looking for all of the above? Which is a totally reasonable response, but that doesn’t mean you’ll get one person who can do all three. So, I think first and foremost, it comes down to what is your goal? And by that I mean, what is the AI expertise that your team is lacking? Katie Robbert – 01:41 Or what is the purpose of introducing AI into your organization? So, unsurprisingly, starting with the 5P framework, the 5Ps are purpose, people, process, platform, performance, because marketers like alliteration. So, purpose. You want to define clearly what AI means to the company, so not your ‘what I did over summer vacation’ essay, but what AI means to me. What do you want to do with AI? Why are you bringing AI in? Is it because I want to keep up with my competitors? Bad answer. Is it because you want to find efficiencies? Okay, that’s a little bit better. But if you’re finding efficiencies, first you need to know what’s not working. So before you jump into getting an AI expert, you probably need someone who’s a process expert or an expert in the technologies that you feel like are inefficient. Katie Robbert – 02:39 So my personal stance is that there’s a lot of foundational work to do before you figure out if you can have an AI expert. An AI expert is like bringing in an AI piece of software. It’s one more thing in your tech stack. This is one more person in your organization fighting to be heard. What are your thoughts, Chris? Christopher S. Penn – 03:02 AI expert is kind of like saying, I want to hire a business expert. It’s a very umbrella term. Okay, are your finances bad? Is your hiring bad? Is your sales process bad? To your point, being very specific about your purpose and the performance—which are the bookends of the 5Ps—is really important because otherwise AI is a big area. You have regression, you have classification, you have generative AI. Even within generative AI, you have coding, media generation. There’s so many things. We were having a discussion internally in our own organization this morning about some ideas about internationalization using AI. It’s a big planet. Katie Robbert – 03:46 Yeah, you’ve got to give me some direction. What does that mean? I think you and I, Chris, are aligned. If you’re saying, ‘I want to bring in an AI expert,’ you don’t actually know what you’re looking for because there are so many different facets of expertise within the AI umbrella that you want to be really specific about what that actually means and how you’re going to measure their performance. So if you’re looking for someone to help you make things more efficient, that’s not necessarily an AI expert. If you’re concerned that your team is not on board, that’s not an AI expert. If you are thinking that you’re not getting the most out of the platforms that you’re using, that’s not an AI expert. Those are very different skill sets. Katie Robbert – 04:38 An AI expert, if we’re talking—let’s just say we could come up with a definition of an AI expert—Chris, you are someone who I would consider an AI expert, and I would list those qualifications as: someone who stays up to date. Someone who knows enough that you can put pretty much any model in front of them and they know how to build a prompt, and someone who can speak to how these tools would integrate into your existing tech stack. My guess is that’s the kind of person that everybody’s looking for: someone to bring AI into my organization, do some light education, and give us a tool to play with. Christopher S. Penn – 05:20 We often talk about things like strategy, tactics, execution, and measurement. So, sort of four layers: why are you doing this thing? What are you going to do? How are you going to do it, and did it work? An actual AI expert has to be able to do all four of those things to say, here’s why we’re doing this thing—AI or not. But here’s why you’d use AI, here’s what AI tools and technologies you use, here’s how you do them, and here’s the proof that what you did worked. So when someone says, ‘I want an AI expert for my company,’ even then, they have to be clear: do we want someone who’s going to help us set our strategy or do we want someone who’s going to build stuff and make stuff for us? It’s very unclear. Christopher S. Penn – 06:03 I think that narrowing down the focus, even if you do narrow down the focus, you still have to restart the 5Ps. So let’s say we got this question from another colleague of ours: ‘I want to do AI lead generation.’ Was the remit to help me segment and use AI to do better lead generation? Well, that’s not an AI problem. As you always say, new technology does not solve all problems. This is not an AI problem; this is a lead generation problem. So the purpose is pretty clear. You want more leads, but it’s not a platform issue with AI. It is actually a people problem. How are people buying in the age of AI? And that’s what you need to solve. Christopher S. Penn – 06:45 And from there you can then go through the 5Ps and user stories and things to say, ‘yeah, this is not an AI expert problem. This is an attention problem.’ You are no longer getting awareness because AI has eaten it. How are you going to get attention to generate audience that becomes prospects that eventually becomes leads? Katie Robbert – 07:05 Yeah, that to me is an ideal customer profile, sales playbook, marketing planning and measurement problem. And sure, you can use AI tools to help with all of those things, but those are not the core problems you’re trying to solve. You don’t need AI to solve any of those problems. You can do it all without it. It might take a little longer or it might not. It really depends. I think that’s—So, Chris, I guess we’re not saying, ‘no, you can’t bring in an AI expert.’ We’re saying there’s a lot of different flavors of AI expertise. And especially now where AI is the topic, the thing—it was NFTs and it was crypto and it was Bitcoin and it was Web three, whatever the heck that was. And it was, pick a thing—Clubhouse. Katie Robbert – 07:57 All of a sudden, everybody was an expert. Right now everybody’s a freaking expert in AI. You can’t sneeze and not have someone be like, ‘I’m an AI expert. I can fix that problem for you.’ Cool. I’ve literally never seen you in the space, but congratulations, you’re an AI expert. The point I’m making here is that if you are not hyper specific about the kind of expertise you’re looking for, you are likely going to end up with a dud. You are likely going to end up with someone who is willing to come in at a lower price just to get their foot in the door. Christopher S. Penn – 08:40 Yep. Katie Robbert – 08:40 Or charge you a lot of money. You won’t know that it’s not working until it doesn’t work and they’ve already moved on. We talked about this on the livestream yesterday about people who come in as AI experts to fix your sales process or something like that. And you don’t know it’s not working until you’ve spent a lot of money on this expert, but you’re not bringing in any more revenue. But by then they’re gone. They’re already down the street selling their snake oil to the next guy. Christopher S. Penn – 09:07 Exactly. Now, to the question of should you grow your own? That’s a big question because again, what level of expertise are you looking for? Strategy, tactics, or execution? Do you want someone who can build? Do you want someone who can choose tools and tactics? Do you want someone who can set the strategy? And then within your organization, who are those people? And this is very much a people issue, which is: do they have the aptitudes to do that? I don’t mean AI aptitude; I mean, are they a curious person? Do they learn quickly? Do they learn well outside their domain? Because a lot of people can learn in their domain with what’s familiar to them. But a whole bunch of other people are really uncomfortable learning something outside their domain. Christopher S. Penn – 09:53 And for one reason or another, they may not be suited as humans to become that internal AI champion. Katie Robbert – 10:02 I would add to that not only the curiosity, but also the communication, because it’s one thing to be able to learn it, but then you have to, if you’re part of a larger team, explain what you learned, explain why you think this is a good idea. You don’t have to be a professional speaker, be able to give a TED talk, but you need to be able to say, ‘hey, Chris, I found this tool. Here’s what it does, here’s why I think we should use it,’ and be able to do that in a way that Chris is like, ‘oh, yeah! That is a really good idea. Let’s go ahead and explore it.’ But if you just say, ‘I found this thing,’ okay, and congratulations, here’s your sticker, that’s not helpful. Katie Robbert – 10:44 So communication, the people part of it, is essential. Right now, a lot of companies—we talked about this on last week’s podcast—a lot of leaders, a lot of CEOs, are disregarding the people in favor of ‘AI is going to do it,’ ‘technology is going to take it over,’ and that’s just not how that’s going to work. You can go ahead and alienate all of your people, but then you don’t have anyone to actually do the work. Because AI doesn’t just set itself up; it doesn’t just run itself without you telling it what it is you need it to do. And you need people to do that. Christopher S. Penn – 11:27 Yep. Really important AI models—we just had a raft of new announcements. So the new version of Gemini 2.5, the new version of OpenAI’s Codex, Claude 4 from Anthropic just came out. These models have gotten insanely smart, which, as Ethan Mollock from Wharton says, is a problem, because the smarter AI gets, the smarter its mistakes get and the harder it is for non-experts to pick up that expert AI is making expert-level mistakes that can still steer the ship in the wrong direction, but you no longer know if you’re not a domain expert in that area. So part of ‘do we grow an AI expert internally’ is: does this person that we’re thinking of have the ability to become an AI expert but also have domain expertise in our business to know when the AI is wrong? Katie Robbert – 12:26 At the end of the day, it’s software development. So if you understand the software development lifecycle, or even if you don’t, here’s a very basic example. Software engineers, developers, who don’t have a QA process, yes, they can get you from point A to point B, but it may be breaking things in the background. It might be, if their code is touching other things, something else that you rely on may have been broken. But listen, that thing you asked for—it’s right here. They did it. Or it may be using a lot of API tokens or server space or memory, whatever it is. Katie Robbert – 13:06 So if you don’t also have a QA process to find out if that software is working as expected, then yes, they got you from point A to point B, but there are all of these other things in the background that aren’t working. So, Chris, to your point about ‘as AI gets smarter, the mistakes get smarter’—unless you’re building people and process into these AI technologies, you’re not going to know until you get slapped with that thousand-dollar bill for all those tokens that you used. But hey, great! Three of your prospects now have really solid lead scores. Cool. Christopher S. Penn – 13:44 So I think we’re sort of triangulating on what the skills are that you should be looking for, which is someone who’s a good critical thinker, someone who’s an amazing communicator who can explain things, someone who is phenomenal at doing requirements gathering and being able to say, ‘this is what the thing is.’ Someone who is good at QA to be able to say the output of this thing—human or machine—is not good, and here’s why, and here’s what we should do to fix it. Someone who has domain expertise in your business and can explain, ‘okay, this is how AI does or does not fit into these things.’ And then someone who knows the technology—strategy, tactics, and execution. Why are we using this technology? What does the technology do? How do we deploy it? Christopher S. Penn – 14:30 For example, Mistral, the French company, just came up with a new model Dev Stroll, which is apparently doing very well on software benchmarks. Knowing that it exists is important. But then that AI expert who has to have all those other areas of expertise also has to know why you would use this, what you would use it for, and how you would use it. So I almost feel that’s a lot to cram into one human being. Katie Robbert – 14:56 It’s funny, I was just gonna say I feel that’s where—and obviously dating ourselves—that’s where things, the example of Voltron, where five mini-lion bots come together to make one giant lion bot, is an appropriate example because no one person—I don’t care who they are—no one person is going to be all of those things for you. But congratulations: together Chris and I are. That Voltron machine—just a quick plug. Because it’s funny, as you’re going through, I’m like, ‘you’re describing the things that we pride ourselves on, Chris,’ but neither of us alone make up that person. But together we do cover the majority. I would say 95% of those things that you just listed we can cover, we can tackle, but we have to do it together. Katie Robbert – 15:47 Because being an expert in the people side of things doesn’t always coincide with being an expert in the technology side of things. You tend to get one or the other. Christopher S. Penn – 15:59 Exactly. And in our case as an agency, the client provides the domain expertise to say, ‘hey, here’s what our business is.’ We can look at it and go, ‘okay, now I understand your business and I can apply AI technology and AI processes and things to it.’ But yeah, we were having that discussion not too long ago about, should we claim that AI expertise in healthcare technologies? Well, we know AI really well. Do we know healthcare—DSM codes—really well? Not really, no. So could we adapt and learn fast? Yes. But are we practitioners day to day working in an ER? No. Katie Robbert – 16:43 So in that case, our best bet is to bring on a healthcare domain expert to work alongside both of us, which adds another person to the conversation. But that’s what that starts to look like. If you say, ‘I want an AI expert in healthcare,’ you’re likely talking about a few different people. Someone who knows healthcare, someone who knows the organizational behavior side of things, and someone who knows the technology side of things. And together that gives your quote-unquote AI expert. Christopher S. Penn – 17:13 So one of the red flags for the AI expert side of things, if you’re looking to bring in someone externally, is someone who claims that with AI, they can know everything because the machines, even with great research tools, will still make mistakes. And just because someone’s an AI expert does not mean they have the sense to understand the subtle mistakes that were made. Not too long ago, we were using some of the deep research tools to pull together potential sponsors for our podcast, using it as a sales prospecting tool. And we were looking at it, looking at who we know to be in the market: ‘yeah, some of these are not good fits.’ Even though it’s plausible, it’s still not a good fit. Christopher S. Penn – 18:01 One of them was the Athletic Greens company, which, yes, for a podcast, they advertise on every podcast in the world. I know from listening to other shows and listening to actual experts that there’s some issues with that particular sponsorship. So it’s not a good fit. Even though the machine said, ‘yeah, this is because they advertise on every other podcast, they’re clearly just wanting to hand out money to podcasters.’ I have the domain expertise in our show to know, ‘yeah, that’s not a good fit.’ But as someone who is an AI expert who claimed that they understood everything because AI understands everything, doesn’t know that the machine’s wrong. So as you’re thinking about, should I bring an AI expert on externally, vet them on the level, vet them on how willing they are to say, ‘I don’t know.’ Katie Robbert – 18:58 But that’s true of really any job interview. Christopher S. Penn – 19:01 Yes. Katie Robbert – 19:02 Again, new tech doesn’t solve old problems, and AI is, at least from my perspective, exacerbating existing problems. So suddenly you’re an expert in everything. Suddenly it’s okay to be a bad manager because ‘AI is going to do it.’ Suddenly the machines are all. And that’s not an AI thing. Those are existing problems within your organization that AI is just going to magnify. So go ahead and hire that quote-unquote AI expert who on their LinkedIn profile says they have 20 years of generative AI expertise. Good luck with that person, because that’s actually not a thing now. Christopher S. Penn – 19:48 At most it would have to be 8 years and you would have to have credentials from Google DeepMind, because that’s where it was invented. You cannot say it’s anything older than that. Katie Robbert – 20:00 But I think that’s also a really good screening question is: do you know what Google DeepMind is? And do you know how long it’s been around? Christopher S. Penn – 20:09 Yep. If someone is an actual AI expert—not ‘AI and marketing,’ but an actual AI expert itself—can you explain the Transformers architecture? Can you explain the diffuser architecture? Can you explain how they’re different? Can you explain how one becomes the other? Because that was a big thing that was announced this week by Google DeepMind. No surprise about how they’re crossing over into each other, which is a topic for another time. But to your point, I feel AI is making Dunning-Kruger much worse. At the risk of being insensitive, it’s very much along gender lines. There are a bunch of dudes who are now making wild claims: ‘no, you really don’t know what you’re talking about.’ Katie Robbert – 21:18 I hadn’t planned on putting on my ranty pants today, but no, I feel that’s. Again, that’s a topic for another time. Okay. So here’s the thing: you’re not wrong. To keep this podcast and this topic productive, you just talked about a lot of things that people should be able to explain if they are an AI expert. The challenge on the other side of that table is people hiring that AI expert aren’t experts in AI. So, Chris, you could be explaining to me how Transformers turn into Voltron, bots turn into Decepticons, and I’m like, ‘yeah, that sounds good’ because you said all the right words. So therefore, you must be an expert. So I guess my question to you is, how can a non-AI expert vet and hire an AI expert without losing their mind? Is that possible? Christopher S. Penn – 22:15 Change the words. How would you hire a medical doctor when you’re not a doctor? How would you hire a plumber when you’re not a plumber? What are the things that you care about? And that goes back to the 5Ps, which is: and we say this with job interviews all the time. Walk me through, step by step, how you would solve this specific problem. Katie, I have a lead generation problem. My leads are—I’m not getting enough leads. The ones I get are not qualified. Tell me as an AI expert exactly what you would do to solve this specific problem. Because if I know my business, I should be able to listen to you go, ‘yeah, but you’re not understanding the problem, which is, I don’t get enough qualified leads. I get plenty of leads, but they’re crap.’ Christopher S. Penn – 23:02 It’s the old Glengarry Glen Ross: ‘The leads are weak.’ Whereas if the person is an actual AI expert, they can say, ‘okay, let me ask you a bunch of questions. Tell me about your marketing automation software. Tell me about your CRM. Tell me how you have set up the flow to go from your website to your marketing automation to your sales CRM. Tell me about your lead scoring. How do you do your lead scoring? Because your leads are weak, but you’re still collecting tons of them. That means you’re not using your lead scoring properly. Oh, there’s an opportunity where I can show AI’s benefit to improve your lead scoring using generative AI.’ Christopher S. Penn – 23:40 So even in that, we haven’t talked about a single model or a single ‘this’ or ‘that,’ but we have said, ‘let me understand your process and what’s going on.’ That’s what I would listen for. If I was hiring an AI expert to diagnose anything and say, I want to hear, and where we started: this person’s a great communicator. They’re a critical thinker. They can explain things. They understand the why, the what, and the how. They can ask good questions. Katie Robbert – 24:12 If I was the one being interviewed and you said, ‘how can I use AI to improve my lead score? I’m getting terrible leads.’ My first statement would be, ‘let’s put AI aside for a minute because that’s not a problem AI is going to solve immediately without having a lot of background information.’ So, where does your marketing team fit into your sales funnel? Are they driving awareness or are you doing all pure cold calling or outbound marketing—whatever it is you’re doing? How clear is your ideal customer profile? Is it segmented? Are you creating different marketing materials for those different segments? Or are you just saying, ‘hi, we’re Trust Insights, we’re here, please hire us,’ which is way too generic. Katie Robbert – 24:54 So there’s a lot of things that you would want to know before even getting into the technology. I think that, Chris, to your point, an AI expert, before they say, ‘I’m the expert, here’s what AI is going to fix,’ they’re going to know that there are a lot of things you probably need to do before you even get to AI. Anyone who jumps immediately to AI is going to solve this problem is likely not a true expert. They are probably just jumping on the bandwagon looking for a dollar. Christopher S. Penn – 25:21 Our friend Andy Crestedine has a phenomenal phrase that I love so much, which is ‘prescription before diagnosis is malpractice.’ That completely applies here. If you’re saying ‘AI is the thing, here’s the AI solution,’ yeah, but we haven’t talked about what the problem is. So to your point about if you’re doing these interviews, the person’s ‘oh yeah, all things AI. Let’s go.’ I get that as a technologist at heart, I’m like, ‘yeah, look at all the cool things we can do.’ But it doesn’t solve. Probably on the 5Ps here—down to performance—it doesn’t solve: ‘Here’s how we’re going to improve that performance.’ Katie Robbert – 26:00 To your point about how do you hire a doctor? How do you hire a plumber? We’ve all had that experience where we go to a doctor and they’re like, ‘here’s a list of medications you can take.’ And you’re like, ‘but you haven’t even heard me. You’re not listening to what I’m telling you is the problem.’ The doctor’s saying, ‘no, you’re totally normal, everything’s fine, you don’t need treatment. Maybe just move more and eat less.’ Think about it in those terms. Are you being listened to? Are they really understanding your problem? If a plumber comes into your house and you’re like, ‘I really think there’s a leak somewhere. But we hear this over here,’ and they’re like, ‘okay, here’s a cost estimate for all brand new copper piping.’ You’re like, ‘no, that’s not what I’m asking you for.’ Katie Robbert – 26:42 The key in these interviews, if you’re looking to bring on an AI expert, is: are they really listening to you and are they really understanding the problem that’s going to demonstrate their level of expertise? Christopher S. Penn – 26:54 Yep. And if you’re growing your own experts, sit down with the people that you want to become experts and A) ask them if they want to do it—that part does matter. And then B) ask them. You can use AI for this. It’s a phenomenal use case for it, of course. What is your learning journey going to be? How are you going to focus your learning so that you solve the problems? The purpose that we’ve outlined: ‘yeah, our organization, we know that our sales is our biggest blockage or finance is our biggest blockage or whatever.’ Start there and say, ‘okay, now your learning journey is going to be focused on how is AI being used to solve these kinds of problems. Dig into the technologies, dig into best practices and things.’ Christopher S. Penn – 27:42 But just saying, ‘go learn AI’ is also a recipe for disaster. Katie Robbert – 27:47 Yeah. Because, what about AI? Do you need to learn prompt engineering? Do you need to learn the different use cases? Do you need to learn the actual how the models work, any algorithms? Or, pick a thing—pick a Decepticon and go learn it. But you need to be specific. Are you a Transformer or are you a Decepticon? And which one do you need to learn? That’s going to be my example from now on, Chris, to try to explain AI because they sound like technical terms, and in the wrong audience, someone’s going to think I’m an AI expert. So I think that’s going to be my test. Christopher S. Penn – 28:23 Yes. Comment guide on our LinkedIn. Katie Robbert – 28:27 That’s a whole. Christopher S. Penn – 28:29 All right, so, wrapping up whether you buy or build—which is effectively what we’re discussing here—for AI expertise, you’ve got to go through the 5Ps first. You’ve got to build some user stories. You’ve got to think about the skills that are not AI, that the person needs to have: critical thinking, good communication, the ability to ask great questions, the ability to learn quickly inside and outside of their domain, the ability to be essentially great employees or contractors, no matter what—whether it’s a plumber, whether it’s a doctor, whether it’s an AI expert. None of that changes. Any final parting thoughts, Katie? Katie Robbert – 29:15 Take your time. Which sounds counterintuitive because we all feel that AI is changing so rapidly that we’re falling behind. Now is the time to take your time and really think about what it is you’re trying to do with AI. Because if you rush into something, if you hire the wrong people, it’s a lot of money, it’s a lot of headache, and then you end up having to start over. We’ve had talks with prospects and clients who did just that, and it comes from ‘we’re just trying to keep up,’ ‘we’re trying to do it quickly,’ ‘we’re trying to do it faster,’ and that’s when mistakes are made. Christopher S. Penn – 29:50 What’s the expression? ‘Hire slow, fire fast.’ Something along those lines. Take your time to really make good choices with the people. Because your AI strategy—at some point you’re gonna start making investments—and then you get stuck with those investments for potentially quite some time.

La semaine dernière je vous ai partagé les 3 croyances qui vont transformer votre vie amoureuse, mais quand est-il de celles qui la pourrissent ? J'ai réalisé après des années de travail sur moi (et mes 6 formations) à quel point les croyances impactaient ma vie. Avant ça, je ne le réalisais pas, j'étais persuadée que ce n'était pas des croyances mais des vérités impossibles à changer, et aussi que même si je les changeais, ça n'allait pas faire une grande différence. J'avais tout faux. Dans cet épisode tu vas apprendre :
Journaliste et autrice, Claire Touzard célèbre aujourd'hui, au micro de Folie Douce, la parution de son dernier livre, Folie et résistance. Elle y évoque avec détermination le diagnostic de sa bipolarité, mais aussi son engagement face aux stigmatisations de la « folie » des femmes dans la société capitaliste qui est la nôtre.Claire Touzard avait déjà évoqué l'intime dans Sans alcool, sur son arrêt de l'alcool, qui fut finalement le début, et non un point final : la sobriété lui a été nécessaire pour découvrir qu'il y avait autre chose. Au micro de Lauren Bastide, elle évoque la littérature de l'intime justement, souvent très attendue, mais dont on oublie que le processus d'écriture peut être très dur. De nombreux sujets sont abordés dans cet entretien, de la romanticisation de la « folie » à la logique du soin occidental, qui cherche le bonheur dans le fait de se couper du malheur des autres. Le soin doit être collectif. Claire Touzard insiste : on veut nous faire l'éloge d'une pseudo-rationalité capitaliste, et celles et ceux qui tentent de l'empêcher sont montrés comme fous. Alors que finalement, c'est dans ces luttes que se cachent cohérence et logique.Crédit photo © Alexandre TabastePour soutenir mon travail, abonnez-vous à ma newsletter sur Substack.➡️ Rejoignez la communauté sur Instagram.➡️ Abonnez vous à la newsletter pour recevoir des conseils de professionnels de la santé mentale, des recommandations de livres et une curation de contenus, événements et podcasts.Folie Douce est disponible gratuitement sur toutes les plateformes : Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Deezer, PodcastAddict, Amazon Music ..Si vous avez aimé cet épisode, laissez nous des étoiles ⭐ et abonnez vous pour ne rater aucun nouvel épisode.Folie Douce donne la parole à des artistes, des militant·es, penseur·euses pour explorer leur parcours de santé mentale à la lumière de leur travail artistique ou politique.

Salut les sportifs intelligents !Cette semaine, j'avais envie de te parler d'un sujet fondamental : ton enveloppe corporelle. Parce que ton corps ne ment jamais. Ce que tu vois dans le miroir est le reflet direct de tes habitudes, de ton alimentation, de ton niveau d'activité et même de ton stress. Dans cet épisode, je t'explique comment comprendre les signaux que ton corps t'envoie pour enfin transformer ta silhouette de façon naturelle, saine et durable.Tu veux des résultats ?

Elles restent des heures devant un stade dans l'attente du concert de leur idole ; elles patientent au pied d'un hôtel dans l'espoir de l'apercevoir. Pancartes et mots doux à la main, elles sont prêtes à s'époumoner à la vue de la star qui a conquis leur cœur. C'est peu de le dire, les groupies vivent intensément leur admiration, un peu trop parfois ? La majorité sont des filles et elles passent parfois pour folles ou hystériques. Leur enthousiasme débordant est souvent moqué, voire méprisé et au mieux incompris. Le phénomène n'est, en tout cas, pas récent. Les Beatles ou Taylor Swift n'ont en effet rien inventé, déjà les gladiateurs, ces combattants de la Rome antique, avaient leurs supportrices. Depuis, leur rôle a pris encore plus d'ampleur. Car au-delà de l'amour et du soutien, elles achètent places de concert, de cinéma, et toute la panoplie des produits dérivés. Un poids économique qu'il serait dommage de prendre à la légère. Qui sont les groupies d'hier et d'aujourd'hui ? Comment vivent-elles leur passion ? Et pourquoi sont-elles si peu considérées malgré leur influence économique, politique et créative ? Avec Sophie Benard, journaliste et critique littéraire, autrice de Splendeurs et misères des groupies (Editions Les Pérégrines, 2025). Autrice également d'un premier roman Faire corps(Editions des équateurs, 2024)Un reportage de Tom MalkiConnaissez-vous les fandoms ? Ces communautés de fans qui se réunissent sur les réseaux sociaux et dédient leur temps et de leur argent aux artistes. Parmi les communautés les plus actives, il y a les fans de KPOP comme Juliette, qui adore le groupe BTS. La preuve, son appartement est rempli de leurs nombreux produits dérivés. Tom Malki l'a rencontrée.En fin d'émissionUn nouvel épisode de notre série Le succès des repats réalisée par Charlie Dupiot :Ils et elles sont originaires d'Afrique centrale et ont décidé de rentrer chez eux pour investir et contribuer au développement de leur pays...

This week, our guest is John Kousinioris, President and CEO of TransAlta, one of Canada's largest power generators. TransAlta owns, operates, and develops a diverse fleet of electrical power generation assets in Canada, the US, and Western Australia, producing electricity from renewable sources and thermal generation. Here are some of the questions Jackie and Peter asked John: What are the reasons behind TransAlta's merger with TransAlta Renewables? What are your expectations for electricity load growth in North America, and how will AI data centers impact demand? Does TransAlta have plans for new investments to meet data center demand? Are there risks to electric system reliability due to fast data center growth? Are there supply chain bottlenecks for new generation projects, and do tariffs compound the issue? What are your perspectives on Alberta's plan to redesign its electricity market? Do you see merit in building an east-west electricity grid in Canada?

Et si ta plus grande peur n'était pas d'échouer… mais d'être vraiment vue ? Dans cet épisode, Karine Ruel plonge au cœur de ces schémas invisibles qui nous habitent : la comparaison, le perfectionnisme et cette pression silencieuse de toujours devoir prouver. Avec beaucoup d'authenticité, elle partage comment ces peurs naissent souvent bien avant l'âge adulte, comment elles s'enracinent dans nos histoires d'enfance et s'alimentent encore aujourd'hui à travers les réseaux sociaux et la quête de validation. Tu découvriras dans cet épisode :
Quand Olivier Le Blainvaux crée Technofounders, il ne cherche pas simplement à lancer une startup mais souhaite bâtir un modèle capable de transformer des travaux de recherches scientifiques en entreprises solides, rentables et utiles à la société.Son constat est simple : la France regorge de chercheurs brillants, mais leurs innovations restent trop souvent confinées dans les laboratoires.Avec Technofounders, il veut accélérer leur passage vers le monde réel, en apportant aux chercheurs les compétences entrepreneuriales et les moyens financiers nécessaires pour développer leurs technos.Mais avant d'en arriver là, Olivier trace un parcours impressionnant : il passe par Polytechnique, rejoint ensuite McKinsey, puis entre chez Rocket Internet, un startup studio international, où il passe près de trois ans. C'est là qu'il co-fonde Jumia, aujourd'hui considéré comme l'équivalent d'Amazon en Afrique. Cette première expérience lui ouvre les yeux sur la puissance d'un modèle capable de mutualiser des ressources — en financement, en stratégie, en développement commercial — pour aider des entrepreneurs à aller plus vite et plus loin.En 2015, il fonde Technofounders.L'idée ? Sourcer les technologies les plus prometteuses, recruter très tôt des profils entrepreneuriaux. Puis, aller tester le plus rapidement le marché pour confronter la techno à des cas d'usage réels et évaluer son potentiel business.Si les signaux sont positifs, la startup est officiellement lancée. Elle bénéficie alors d'un accompagnement structuré, avec des ressources humaines, financières et méthodologiques pour accélérer son développement et maximiser ses chances de succès.Aujourd'hui, Technofounders c'est :12 startups créées dans les secteurs de la santé, l'agriculture, la chimie des matériaux, le spatial, la sécurité, l'IA et les semi-conducteurs.Plus de 50 millions d'euros levésDes succès comme Cerbair, NeoFarm, Ion XMais tout n'a pas été simple et des galères, Olivier en a connu :Entre l'apprentissage de la vente de matériel sensible, un entrepôt brûlé et la recherche du modèle optimal de valorisation, découvrez son parcours !Intrigué(e) ?Arpentez les coulisses de Technofounders dans l'épisode de La Galère. Bonne écoute !
Welcome, Earthlings and Cybertronians alike, to another episode of Play Comics-where the only thing more confusing than the continuity is trying to fold yourself into a PS2 disc case! This time, we're rolling out (and occasionally transforming) into the wild world of the 2004 Transformers video game. Yes, the one that's based on Transformers: Armada-even though the box art was too shy to admit it, and the plot zigzags harder than a Mini-Con on a caffeine rush. Joining us for this electrifying adventure is none other than Charles Shelton from the TransMissions Podcast Network, a man who knows more about Autobots, Decepticons, and questionable voice acting than Unicron knows about planetary snacking. Together, we'll dodge Decepticlones, collect Mini-Cons like they're Pokémon, and ponder why Optimus Prime never just took a vacation in the Amazon (hint: robot allergies). So buckle up, hit that triangle button to transform, and prepare for a journey through nostalgia, PS2 graphics, and more robot drama than a Cybertronian soap opera. Let's see if we can save the universe-or at least get through the jungle level without rage-quitting. Learn such things as: Why do you need to experience things for yourself and not rely on others to decide if you'll like a thing or not? Do you really need to see all of those great Transformers characters that you've come to love so much? Wouldn't it be fine to just have a few of them? How did Soundwave get into here and mess with Charles's audio? Especially because he doesn't even show up in Armada? And so much more! You can find Charles on the TransMissions Podcast Network which includes shows looking at the toys, the media, and even an actual play Transformers themed tabletop RPG game.

Aidan joined this week's Unsupervised Learning for a wide-ranging conversation on model architectures, enterprise adoption, and what's breaking in the foundation model stack. If you're building or investing in AI infrastructure, Aidan is worth listening to. He co-authored the original Transformer paper, leads one of the most advanced model labs outside of the hyperscalers, and is now building for real-world enterprise deployment with Cohere's agent platform, North. Cohere serves thousands of customers across sectors like finance, telco, and healthcare — and they've made a name for themselves by staying model-agnostic, privacy-forward, and deeply international (with major bets in Japan and Korea) (0:00) Intro(0:32) Enterprise AI(3:23) Custom Integrations and Future of AI Agents(4:33) Enterprise Use Cases for Gen AI(7:02) The Importance of Reasoning in AI Models(10:38) Custom Models and Synthetic Data(17:48) Cohere's Approach to AI Applications(23:24) Future Use Cases and Market Fit(27:11) Building a Unified Automation Platform(27:34) Strategic Decisions in the AI Journey(29:19) International Partnerships and Language Models(31:05) Future of Foundation Models(32:27) AI in Specialized Domains(34:40) Challenges in Data Integration(35:06) Emerging Foundation Model Companies(35:31) Technological Frontiers and Architectures(37:29) Scaling Hypothesis and Model Capabilities(42:26) AI Research Culture and Team Building(44:39) Future of AI and Societal Impact(48:31) Addressing AI Risks With your co-hosts: @jacobeffron - Partner at Redpoint, Former PM Flatiron Health @patrickachase - Partner at Redpoint, Former ML Engineer LinkedIn @ericabrescia - Former COO Github, Founder Bitnami (acq'd by VMWare) @jordan_segall - Partner at Redpoint

Mais ce changement impacte aussi les 105 collaborateurs du groupe, qui sont amenés à revisiter, faire évoluer et transformer l'organisation interne et les manières de travailler et de travailler ensemble.C'est là qu'intervient le projet "des forces" et l'approche de développement basée sur les points forts. “Elle permet de mieux connaître ses points d'appui pour pouvoir faire un pas de côté”, observe Céline. Patrice témoigne également d'à quel point cette méthode a permis d'ouvrir le dialogue et de mieux cerner la complémentarité des talents pour mieux travailler ensemble.Un échange passionnant sur la force du collectif et l'adaptabilité face aux défis d'aujourd'hui !Culture Talents est un podcast proposé par Le Labo des Talents.Animation : Florence HardyRéalisation : César Defoort | Natif.------Florence Hardy et les coachs du Labo des Talents sont certifiés par Gallup, cependant nous précisons que Le Labo des Talents n'est pas affilié à ni ne représente Gallup.

The Reverend Joe Mitchell served was the Rector of the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd since 2015 until 2023 and was the first Priest, or any minister, in Randolph County, NC to hold a Pride Mass at our Parish . Father Joe has been active in the Diocese on the Liturgy Committee, the Prison Ministry Committee, and Mission Resource Team. He is self described as “just your average Transformer-collecting, baseball-playing, theatre-loving, pop culture-referencing priest from the coalfields of southwest Virginia.” I call him Father Joe and he is the one who allowed the Holy Spirit to move through him as she continued to pull me back into relationship with the God of my understanding. Father Joe is an amazing preacher, gaining online views from across the pond…. Shout out to Tracy, and he walks the talk of Jesus every day in everything he does. Father Joe is currently the Rector, Time-Certain at The Episcopal Church of the Advocate in Chapel Hill, NC. Father Joe's Blog https://fatherprime.blogspot.com/2017/02/
Il y a entre 5 et 15 millions de coureurs réguliers en France.Avec ses 38 000 abonnés sur Strava, temple du running, Nicolas Spiess est sûrement l'un des plus connus. Mais il ne l'est pas devenu en gagnant des médailles, ni en pulvérisant des records — même s'il affiche un solide 2h33 au marathon.Son truc, c'est de comprendre. De partager. De transmettre.Ingénieur de formation, il se passionne pour la course à pied à 20 ans. Comme beaucoup, il commence par courir sans trop savoir comment s'y prendre mais très vite sa curiosité le pousse à creuser, à tester, à analyser tout ce qu'il peut.En 2013, il lance "Running Addict", un blog sur lequel il publie des contenus pédagogiques qui attirent très vite une large communauté.Mais en parallèle, grandit une frustration : ”les gens adoraient mes conseils, mais à la fin la question c'était toujours — comment je m'entraîne, concrètement de A à Z ?”En 2020, il quitte donc son poste d'ingénieur pour lancer son app Campus Coach et proposer la solution dont il rêvait quand il a démarré le running.Grâce à leur IA, ils sont aujourd'hui capables de proposer des programmes d'entraînement personnalisés basés sur les données de chaque coureur. Un plan sur-mesure sans coach hors de prix ni diplôme en physiologie.En quelques années, l'app cartonne : des dizaines de milliers d'utilisateurs, une équipe de 50 personnes, une croissance stable et autofinancée, des ambassadeurs de renom comme Matthieu Blanchard — et une mission simple : aider chacun à progresser durablement, sans se blesser.En parallèle, la communauté de Nicolas continue de grandir pour atteindre 500k abonnés au total, faisant de lui l'un des influenceurs running les plus suivis en France.Dans cet épisode, il explique :Pourquoi l'immense majorité des coureurs s'entraînent malLes erreurs classiques à éviter quand on se lance dans la course à piedLe modèle économique derrière Campus Coach et sa stratégie de croissanceComment faire pour toucher les 5 millions de coureurs réguliers en FranceSon rapport au temps, à l'effort et à la disciplineCet épisode est à la fois une vraie masterclass de running — pour mieux comprendre, mieux s'entraîner — et un tour d'horizon passionnant du business de la course.Vous pouvez suivre Nicolas sur Strava et aussi le contacter sur Linkedin et Instagram.Testez Campus avec le code “DOIT” qui vous offrira 2 mois gratuits.

Transformer trips are a common problem, but the solution is sometimes not immediately obvious. This audio story, narrated from the April 2025 cover story of T&D World's print magazine, shares three stories from the field from Mose Ramieh of CBS Field Services. These examples illustrate that regardless of the complexity of the situation and system, it is often the simplest of solutions that is the hardest to find. Listen to the episode to hear the three mysteries: "Two Trips, One Input," "Blame it On the Rain" and "A Mind of Its Own." For more information, you can read the full story, "Mysterious Transformer Trips," on the T&D World website or look for the article in the April 2025 issue of the print magazine. Also, if you have any stories about new technologies or projects underway at your utility that you'd like to share in our magazine or on this podcast, email Amy Fischbach, Field Editor for T&D World magazine and host of the Line Life Podcast.
Un panier moyen à 550 euros. Le double dans certaines boutiques… Telle est la récompense de l'audace à la française.Depuis toujours, Lisa est passionnée de lingerie.

Très jeune, elle commence à dessiner et concevoir des modèles originaux, avec sa patte bien à elle : très française, très sexy.Dior, Kenzo, John Galliano… Elle débute auprès des plus grandes Maisons avant de rejoindre Etam pour participer au lancement d'Undiz en tant que directrice artistique.Lisa y découvre les secrets d'un lancement réussi dès 2007, à une époque où les réseaux sociaux n'existaient même pas encore.Elle casse les codes, crée un produit parfaitement positionné, simple, pensé notamment pour les ados — et parvient à vendre sans la moindre photo.“Sur une marque de teenage, c'était important pour nous de pouvoir dédramatiser ce côté sexy. Je me suis bien rattrapée sur Livy après.”En 2017, Livy voit le jour. Lisa réussit à convaincre son ancien employeur de l'accompagner financièrement, et réunit d'autres investisseurs pour lancer le projet. Alliant savoir-faire français et modernité, sa marque séduit rapidement une clientèle haut de gamme, grâce à une implantation stratégique des boutiques.Aujourd'hui, Livy c'est : 120 collaboratrices, 120 000 pièces produites par an, et une trentaine de points de vente, dont 18 en France.Dans cet épisode, elle nous dévoile les dessous d'une stratégie bien rodée, fondée sur l'authenticité et la rencontre avec le client.Une véritable masterclass du secteur du luxe, menée par une personnalité aussi inspirante que déterminée.Utilisez le code “DOIT” sur li-vy.com pour bénéficier (peut-être) d'une surprise…TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Ce que la lingerie représente : historiquement, socialement et personnellement00:12:38 : 1 cliente sur 3 a la poitrine refaite : comment la lingerie évolue00:16:49 : L'évolution des designs sur les 30 dernières années00:21:47 : La différence du luxe : processus de création et fabrication00:29:04 : Undiz : comment devenir leader en cassant les codes00:43:45 : Les secrets pour un lancement réussi, le cas Livy00:56:02 : Comment se développer vite à l'international01:03:21 : Transformer ses boutiques en aimants à clients : combiner les stratégies digitales et “in vivo”01:13:04 : Concurrence, shadow-ban et nudité01:20:12 : Définir la limite entre le sexy et le vulgaire01:27:43 : Comment Livy a su être agile tout en restant authentique01:42:48 : Avoir l'esprit sportif sans l'êtreLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #104 Clara Blocman - Ysé - Révolutionner le monde de la lingerie avec Instagram#423 - Guillaume Gibault - Le Slip français - Des slips de bobo à la grande conso, la croisade du Made in France#352 - Juliette Lévy - Oh My Cream ! - Se mesurer aux géants de la beauté, casser les codes des DNVB, et tout rafler#452 - Reid Hoffman - LinkedIn, Paypal - L'humanité 2.0 : Homo technicus plus qu'Homo sapiens#266 - Frédéric Plais - Platform.sh – Lever 140 millions avec 100% de télétravail#261 - Caroline Vigneaux - Humoriste et réalisatrice - Changer de vie : passer de la plaidoirie au stand-upNous avons parlé de :LIVYLes boutiques LivyUndizEtamL'Agence - l'épisode avec LisaJohn Galliano (styliste chez Dior)Antonio Marras (styliste chez Kenzo)KOL : key opinion leaders (personnes influentes)Laurent MilchiorGloballyVidéo promo pour la boutique à CourchevelBackflip : vidéo promo pour la boutique à CourchevelSkims (comparaison entre des hommes et les femmes)Les recommandations de lecture : Colette (recueil : La Maison de Claudine - La Naissance du jour - Sido)Vous pouvez contacter Lisa sur Linkedin ou Instagram.Un immense merci à Géraldine et Anne et toute la team Club Med pour cet enregistrement hors du temps en haut des montagnes.Vous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Distribué par Audiomeans.
