In this powerful episode of Unleashing Intuition Secrets, Michael Jaco sits down with Joshua Hale, known as The Holistic Tech Wizard, for a deep and eye-opening conversation on how artificial intelligence is reshaping not just business — but human potential itself. Joshua brings over a decade of experience in digital marketing, automation, and AI strategy to the table, breaking down how modern tools can help entrepreneurs simplify operations, reduce overwhelm, and scale sustainably without losing their values or humanity. He shares the real story behind AI's evolution, from early development to today's large language models, and explains how business owners can leverage these tools responsibly rather than becoming controlled by them. The discussion goes beyond surface-level tech talk and explores the psychological and ethical implications of AI, emphasizing the importance of human oversight, critical thinking, and intentional design. Joshua introduces his Entrepreneur's Compass and Beyond the Matrix frameworks, which help individuals build profitable businesses while staying aligned with purpose, freedom, and personal sovereignty. Michael and Joshua also dive into the importance of community, decentralization, and the revival of classical thinking through methods like the Trivium. Together, they outline how entrepreneurs can use AI as a tool for empowerment rather than dependency — and how conscious decision-making will define the future of work and innovation. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about AI, entrepreneurship, ethical technology, and how to thrive in an increasingly automated world without losing the human element.

Managed Service Providers (MSPs) are encouraged to shift their focus from traditional infrastructure management to becoming Managed Intelligence Providers (MIPs), emphasizing the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into their service offerings. Chance Weaver, VP of AI Adoption at PAX 8, highlights the necessity for MSPs to engage in deeper conversations with clients about their business processes rather than merely discussing technology tools. This approach aims to identify specific business challenges that can be addressed through tailored technological solutions, including AI, automation, and business intelligence.Weaver notes that while many MSPs have historically excelled in maintaining infrastructure, they often lack a comprehensive understanding of their clients' workflows and business needs. The transition to MIPs involves not only understanding business processes but also ensuring data readiness, which is critical for effective AI implementation. Instead of undertaking extensive data cleanup projects upfront, MSPs should focus on the data relevant to specific business processes, thereby demonstrating immediate ROI and building trust with clients.The episode also discusses the importance of outcome-driven services and the potential for MSPs to monetize AI solutions effectively. Weaver shares insights from his interviews with over 650 partners in the PAX 8 ecosystem, revealing that only a small percentage are currently generating revenue from AI-related services. Successful partners are leveraging their existing relationships and expertise to create value for clients by aligning pricing models with measurable outcomes, thus facilitating a smoother transition to AI adoption.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the key takeaway is the urgency to start conversations about AI with clients, even if they are not yet fully equipped to implement these solutions. By positioning themselves as knowledgeable partners in the AI transformation journey, MSPs can capitalize on emerging opportunities and enhance their service offerings. The discussion emphasizes that while some providers may choose to adopt a fast-follower strategy, those who proactively engage with clients about AI will likely gain a competitive advantage in the evolving market landscape.

In this episode, Niels Brabandt, Founder and Owner of NB Networks, speaks with Christopher Carter, globally recognised SAP expert and CEO of Approyo, about how true digital transformation succeeds only when leadership understands both technology and human behaviour. SAP is often seen as complex, costly, and intimidating. Yet, as Christopher Carter explains, it can become one of the most powerful tools for creating transparency, compliance, and operational excellence—if implemented with the right mindset. Together, Brabandt and Carter explore the real challenges of SAP migration: Why delaying transformation can destroy compliance and trust. How to build a roadmap that saves money through integration and scalability. Why most SAP projects fail not for technical reasons, but for human ones. The essential role of change management and leadership accountability. How AI innovations like SAP Joule are reshaping the future of enterprise performance. This conversation offers candid insights from two leading voices in business transformation—showing that success with SAP is not about installing software, but about leading change with clarity, courage, and communication. A must-listen for executives, decision-makers, and leaders responsible for digital, cultural, and organisational change.

Welcome back to another episode of The Richer Geek. Today, Courtney Baker, CMO of Knownwell and host of AI Knowhow, talks about how AI is shaping business strategy and the future of work. From scaling client relationships to protecting creativity in an AI-driven world, Courtney shares how leaders can adopt AI in a way that elevates people, not replaces them. In this episode, we chat about… Courtney's career path from nonprofits to marketing leadership and AI innovation. Why AI in business strategy should focus on elevating humanity instead of replacing jobs. How Knownwell uses AI for professional services to scale client relationship insights. The shift from AI execution tools to AI as a strategic decision-making partner. Why human creativity in business and marketing still outperforms AI-generated content. The risks of over-reliance on AI in relationships and society. What leaders need to know about AI adoption, data security, and global regulations. Key Takeaways: AI helps businesses scale client relationships by turning subjective data into objective insights. Professional service firms can use AI to improve client health tracking and decision-making. Leaders who engage with AI tools now will be better prepared for future strategy-level applications. Human creativity and problem-solving remain essential, even as AI handles repetitive work. The future of AI in business will move beyond task automation toward strategic guidance. Companies and society must set boundaries to ensure AI adoption supports people rather than replacing human connection.   Resources from Courtney LinkedIn | knownwell.com | AI Knowhow Podcast Resources from Mike and Nichole Gateway Private Equity Group |  Nic's guide

What if the technology that's keeping you up at night could actually become your biggest competitive advantage? Here's what's happening right now: Business owners everywhere are watching AI generate content, create designs, and handle tasks that used to require human expertise. The fear is real because the question feels existential – if your clients can do this themselves, what happens to your value? But what if you're looking at this completely backwards? What if AI doesn't replace human expertise – what if it makes the right kind of expertise absolutely indispensable? That's exactly what our guest discovered when he conducted a fascinating experiment. Robert Capps tried to write an entire New York Times Magazine article using AI. The result was polished, engaging, and would have fooled most readers. But here's the twist – he didn't publish it. Instead, he wrote one of the most important pieces about the future of work that I've read all year, and it reveals why human judgment just became more valuable, not less. Robert brings a unique perspective to this conversation because he's lived at the intersection of technology and creativity for over a decade. As the former Editorial Director of WIRED magazine, he guided the publication to 21 National Magazine Award nominations with eight wins. He's overseen special issues guest-edited by Christopher Nolan, Serena Williams, and Barack Obama. Now, as a writer whose work appears in The New York Times Magazine, Robert is conducting real-world experiments with AI that reveal insights every business leader needs to hear. The AI Hat Podcast host Mike Allton asked Robert Capps about: ✨ Responsibility Advantage: AI can create content, but only humans can take responsibility for strategic decisions and client outcomes. ✨ Taste Over Tech: When everyone has access to the same AI tools, your ability to make creative choices becomes your primary competitive advantage. ✨ Integration Opportunity: Position your agency as the bridge between AI capabilities and client business needs, becoming indispensable through expert curation.

In this episode of 'The Friday Habit,' Mark Labriola and Benjamin Manley are joined by Kayvon Kian, an entrepreneur, teacher, and senior advisor at McKinsey & Company, to discuss his latest book, 'What Is Wisdom?' The conversation covers various philosophical approaches from ancient thinkers such as Socrates, Nietzsche, and Hippocrates, and how their wisdom can guide business decisions. Kayvon shares personal anecdotes, discusses the importance of skeptic capital, and emphasizes strategies for dealing with uncertainty, making better decisions, and focusing on values. The episode concludes with practical advice on preparing for 2022, highlighting the significance of controlled thinking, surrounding oneself with diverse perspectives, and making intentional decisions. Key Takeaways:Skeptic Capital Matters: Kayvan encourages building “skeptic capital”—surrounding yourself with people who challenge your assumptions and help prevent costly mistakes.Ask the Wisdom Question: When facing tough decisions, ask: “What would a wise person do in this situation?” This reframes the decision-making process through timeless values.Use Philosophers as a Thought Board: Kayvan introduces the concept of using historical thinkers (like Socrates, Nietzsche, and Hippocrates) as an advisory board to gain diverse perspectives on modern challenges.Socrates – Embrace Healthy Skepticism: Question your assumptions. Ask “Is that really so?” before jumping into new opportunities or narratives.Nietzsche – Eternal Recurrence: Act as if your decisions will recur infinitely. Would you still choose this path if you had to live it over and over again?Hippocrates – First, Do No Harm: Even with good intentions, interventions can worsen a situation. Sometimes, restraint is the wisest choice.Watch for Patterns (Taoist Influence): Recognize patterns in personal and business life. Understanding recurring cycles can help you predict outcomes and avoid mistakes.Be Present, Not Just Reactive: Don't live on autopilot. Be mindful of how your words, actions, and energy affect others and yourself—especially in moments of stress.Intentional Decision-Making: Big decisions should be values-driven, not reactive. Slowing down and switching between philosophical frameworks leads to wiser outcomes.Plan for Uncertainty: 2022 (and any year) will bring challenges. Focus on what you can control, invite diverse perspectives, and be open to shifting your mental models.Connect with Kayvan: kayvankian.comhttps://linkedin.com/in/kayvanLearn More: Visit TheFridayHabit.com for show notes, resources, and to download the guide on working on your business rather than in it. Stay Connected: Subscribe to The Friday Habit for more real-life business lessons, candid conversations, and actionable strategies to elevate your entrepreneurial journey.

“Got vCon? You will.” — Jeff Pulver In this special edition of the Technology Reseller News podcast, Publisher Doug Green sits down with Jeff Pulver, creator of the Pulver vCon Report and longtime voice of innovation in telecom, to explore what Pulver calls the "sleeper technology of 2025": the vCon. A vCon, or virtualized conversation, is more than just a recording—it's a standardized, structured file format that captures the full depth of business conversations across any channel, whether voice, video, email, or chat. Pulver describes it as “robot food for AI,” the foundational data businesses need to fuel next-generation automation, analytics, and compliance tools. “The moment the call ends is when the real magic starts,” says Pulver. With vCon, conversations become searchable, analyzable, and actionable. From real-time sales dashboards to AI-driven support insights, Pulver argues that vCon files are unlocking "organizational memory" in ways businesses have never seen. Pulver draws parallels between vCon today and SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) in its early days—both were initially niche innovations that became foundational. He also highlights the growing vCon ecosystem, noting that over 30 companies are already building with the standard, and invites others to get ahead by building their “vCon strategy.” Upcoming Events: Fall ‘25 VON: Evolution, September 15 in Washington, D.C. Fall ‘25 vCon Conference, October 21-23 in Dallas, TX Throughout the episode, Pulver emphasizes that vCon technology isn't about hypothetical futures—it's happening now, with real tools like conservers (e.g., conserver.io) and protocols like SCITT (Supply Chain Integrity, Transparency, and Trust) shaping a trustworthy foundation for AI-powered enterprises. Whether you're in telecom, compliance, support, or just managing a messy digital life, Pulver's message is clear: “What's your vCon strategy?” Subscribe to Jeff's thoughts at thejeffpulver.substack.com Stay tuned to Technology Reseller News for more on the vCon revolution.

Send us a textEpisode 137: What if the key to transforming your business lies not in adding more resources, but in simply understanding how your employees move through their workspace? In this eye-opening conversation with Service Physics co-founders Brian Reece and Steve Crowley, we uncover the hidden costs of inefficient processes that might be quietly draining your profits and customer satisfaction.Website: www.servicephysics.comService Physics app download: Apple StoreService Physics app download: AndroidBrian Reece: LinkedInSteve Crowley: LinkedInBrian and Steve's journey began at Starbucks during the financial crisis, where they witnessed firsthand how applying lean principles transformed a struggling company into a global powerhouse. After further refining their approach at Anheuser-Busch, they founded Service Physics with a mission to make these powerful techniques accessible to businesses of all sizes. Their unique consulting approach—which they playfully describe as "doing consulting wrong"—focuses on being physically present in the workspace, collecting real data, and experimenting with improvements rather than simply delivering recommendations.One of their most powerful revelations? The true cost of motion. Through simple techniques like "spaghetti diagrams" that track worker movements, they demonstrate how activities that look like work but add no value (like walking) can represent 10% of labor costs—translating to millions in opportunity costs for mid-sized companies. Even more striking is their finding that most service businesses already have sufficient equipment capacity; they're simply not using it efficiently.What sets Service Physics apart is their focus on driving top-line growth rather than merely cutting costs. By helping businesses understand leading indicators (like customer queue length or transaction time) rather than just lagging metrics (like sales), they enable proactive improvements that capture previously unmet customer demand. Their entrepreneurial journey offers valuable lessons in bootstrapping a business, building systems that don't rely solely on founders, and creating clarity through effective communication—including innovative approaches like using AI to transform quarterly updates into podcasts.Ready to discover how much hidden capacity your business already has?

What if your business could feel as nurturing to your soul as it is profitable to your bank account? In this powerful season finale, I reveal how my three-month sabbatical transformed not just my inner landscape, but completely revolutionized how I approach my business. This isn't just another "work-life balance" conversation—it's a radical reimagining of what a soul-aligned business can truly be. I'm pulling back the curtains on exactly how I identified the energy leaks draining my creative life force and the specific steps I'm taking to build a regenerative business ecosystem that amplifies my impact without depleting my spirit. For those who resonated with Ep 62's personal transformations, this ep delivers the practical business blueprint that emerged from those spiritual insights. To sum up, you'll discover how to design a business that honors both soul and strategy—where inspired action replaces forced productivity, and where structure serves creativity rather than suffocating it. Note: If you haven't yet listened to Ep 62 "What 3 Months of Complete Rest Taught Me About Success, Story, and Soul Alignment," I recommend starting there to understand the personal journey that led to this business revolution. THE THREE PILLARS OF A REGENERATIVE BUSINESS: ✨ Identify & Plug Energy Leaks The paper cuts hiding in plain sight that were silently draining my business vitality—from unnecessary team tasks to the performative content treadmill that was turning me into an "on-demand product" rather than a human being. Moreover, learn how to conduct your own energy audit and reclaim your creative sovereignty. ✨ Apply Permaculture Principles to Business Design How I'm transforming my business into a living ecosystem using insights from natural systems. Discover the revolutionary "Living Library" concept that's replacing my constant content creation with a regenerative wisdom-sharing approach that feels deeply nourishing to both me and my audience. ✨ Create Structures That Serve, Not Suffocate The complete infrastructure redesign that honors creative energy while maintaining powerful structure. Learn how I'm redefining success metrics beyond follower counts, reimagining my entire customer journey, and automating repetitive tasks to preserve my most valuable resource—my creative energy. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES: For me, the joy of building a business isn't about how fast I can scale it. It's how aligned I can grow it. Celinne Da Costa I started to feel like a product instead of a human. My sabbatical and the restructuring of my business is a big break away from that because I don't want to be an on-demand product. Celinne Da Costa I'm building a business ecosystem that regenerates rather than depletes—where structure serves creativity rather than suffocates it, and where every element plays a role in creating sustainable abundance. Celinne Da Costa TRANSFORM YOUR BUSINESS: If this episode resonated with you, I invite you to explore how these insights might transform your own business model:

AI and entrepreneurship are reshaping the future of business, innovation, and leadership. In this episode, we sit down with Steven Zeller, a futurist, entrepreneur, and thought leader, to explore how AI is revolutionizing industries, changing how we work, and creating new business opportunities.

What is the future of document generation in 2025, and how should businesses navigate the risks of AI? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Christian Lund, co-founder of Templafy, to explore how AI-powered document automation is reshaping productivity, compliance, and security in modern enterprises. As companies push for greater efficiency, many are adopting AI tools to streamline workflows. But AI's effectiveness depends heavily on context—and context is something you can't always rely on users to provide. Christian shares why most people approach AI like a search engine, entering a handful of keywords and expecting the right results. But would you brief a colleague with just a few disjointed words? Better briefs lead to better outputs, whether you're working with humans or AI.  This is where Templafy steps in, delivering AI-powered document generation solutions that integrate seamlessly with platforms like Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and Salesforce. Trusted by over 800 enterprises, including KPMG, BDO, and Adobe, Templafy automates document creation while maintaining compliance and brand consistency—saving employees up to 30 days per year. We also dive into why the best automation happens when humans are less involved. Far from sidelining human input, this approach reduces compliance risks and frees employees to focus on high-value work that drives business growth. Christian explains how Templafy orchestrates AI models, data sources, and workflows to ensure optimal outcomes, from sales collateral to RFP responses. Plus, we explore future trends, including AI agents and stronger orchestration that allows businesses to stay in control of AI-powered processes. How can businesses balance the push for faster workflows with the need for secure, compliant documents? And what role will AI agents play in tomorrow's document generation landscape? Tune in to discover how Templafy is paving the way for smarter, safer automation.
