Podcasts about Transparency

A recent study out show that at least 50 of the Venezuelans who were grabbed, put on airplanes, and disappeared into an El Salvador jail were in this country LEGALLY. They were here legally. Also, Trump pays off the family of one of his insurrectionists, and the issue is transparency. Transparency is so damn important. And team Biden really failed at that. Hosted on Acast.

How to have the conversations that are most difficult — and most important.Before you can have hard conversations with others, you need to have an honest conversation with yourself. That's the counterintuitive advice from Sheila Heen, who says our own internal narratives often derail our attempts at negotiation and conflict resolution."The first negotiation is actually a negotiation I have with myself about my own story," explains Heen, a Harvard Law School lecturer and co-author of Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most. When entering challenging interactions, she recommends a powerful shift where we consider that our perspective is only one side of the story. "If I can shift my purpose from convincing you of something to just understanding how you see it and why we might see it differently, that actually is more likely to generate a good conversation with less defensiveness for both of us."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Heen joins Matt Abrahams to explore effective communication in high-stakes situations. From giving and receiving feedback with her “ACE” framework (Appreciation, Coaching, and Evaluation) to recognizing the "degrees of difficulty" in disagreements, she offers practical strategies for having productive conversations even when emotions run high.Episode Reference Links:Sheila Heen Sheila's Books: Difficult Conversations / Thanks for the Feedback  Ep.144 Communicating Through Conflict: How to Get Along with AnyoneEp.136 The Art of Disagreeing Without Conflict: Navigating the Nuance  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:36) - Managing Anxiety in Tough Conversations (04:15) - Why Emotions Matter (07:23) - Shifting the Story We Tell Ourselves (08:41) - Starting with the Real Issue (10:20) - Getting Unstuck in Conflict (13:18) - ACE: The Three Types of Feedback (16:20) - Making Feedback Actionable (18:40) - Finding Common Ground (20:17) - The Final Three Questions (27:32) - Conclusion    *****This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

Dan Rochon sits down with serial entrepreneur and venture capitalist Jeremy Delk to reveal how to identify business opportunities hiding in plain sight. From losing $2 million in four days to building multi-exit companies, Jeremy shares raw lessons about pattern recognition, authenticity, and why most people never make their ideas real. This episode is your backstage pass to understanding how investors really think and how you can get in the room.What you'll learn on this episodeUntapped markets aren't always new sometimes they're old industries approached differently.Most people fail not because of bad ideas, but because of a lack of belief and clarity.Business success starts with solving people's problems, not chasing trends.Pattern recognition is learned from losses, not textbooks.Transparency in leadership attracts capital and people masking your weaknesses repels both.Markets reward disruption especially when others say “that's how it's always been done.”Real growth starts when you stop pretending to be perfect and start owning your gaps.At the heart of this conversation is a simple truth: real business success comes from clearly communicating value and solving real problems. If you're working to sharpen that clarity in your own business, Dan's upcoming book Teach to Sell offers a practical framework to help you attract clients and opportunities by leading with what you know.

Building Trust with AI in Customer Support  Shep interviews Kenji Hayward, Senior Director of Customer Support at Front. He talks about Front's The State of Service Expectations report and how customer expectations are evolving around AI, response times, loyalty, and what businesses can do to meet and exceed those expectations.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What are the top expectations customers have from brands? What role does AI play in enhancing customer interactions and support?  How many bad experiences does it take before a customer stops doing business with a company?  Why is it important for companies to use their products?  Is there a difference between how businesses and customers perceive good response times?  Top Takeaways:    Be a customer of your own business. One of the best ways to understand and improve a product is by using it yourself. When team members, including managers and leaders, act as customers, they feel what real customers experience, both the good and the bad.    The State of Service Expectations by Front found that it only takes three bad experiences before 59% of customers decide to leave and find a different company to do business with. This leaves almost half of the customers who leave after 2 or even 1 negative experience from your brand. This means every interaction counts.  The very first interaction can set the tone for their whole experience. Many companies are now using AI to handle their first contact, so it must be friendly, fast, and accurate.  Transparency is essential in building trust. Companies using AI or chatbots should always be upfront with customers. People appreciate being told whether they are chatting with a human or a digital assistant, and that when the technology isn't working, there is an easy way to reach a real person.  Many customers (39%) like it when companies remember their preferences or past purchases and use that information to offer better service. However, some customers (57%) also worry about how much personal data is shared with AI or other technology. Finding the right balance between personalization and privacy is important so customers can feel comfortable and safe with how their information is being used.  Customers want an amazing experience, even if it costs extra. The State of Service Expectations found that 60% of customers would be willing to pay more for faster response times. Our customer service and experience research echoes this, where 59% of customers say customer service is more important than price.   AI has gotten much better, faster, and cheaper in the last few years. It's easy to get caught up in the latest technology or the fanciest software. But no matter how advanced your tech is, it won't matter if you don't have the foundations of good customer service, like empathy, transparency, speed, and convenience.  Plus, Shep and Kenji discuss how much customers are willing to wait for email, chat, or phone responses before they start to lose patience with your brand. Tune in!  Quote:   "Bad experiences can turn the customer off and make you lose their loyalty. In this day and age, where customers have many options on brands they want to work with, the role of customer support teams has become really amplified."    About:    Kenji Hayward is the Senior Director of Customer Support at Front. He is a customer experience and AI innovator. You can follow his newsletter on customer support and technology, Top Tier Support.  Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Joe Biden’s Cognitive Decline: The hosts argue that President Biden exhibited signs of significant mental decline even before taking office in 2021. They cite excerpts from Jake Tapper’s upcoming book and The Atlantic article, which describe Biden’s struggles with memory, attention, and communication during the 2020 campaign and presidency. The Hur Tapes: The podcast discusses the release of audio recordings from Special Counsel Robert Hur’s investigation into Biden’s handling of classified documents. The hosts play and analyze segments from the tapes, suggesting they reveal Biden’s inability to recall key facts and events, reinforcing claims of cognitive decline. Prostate Cancer Diagnosis: A breaking news update is shared during the episode: President Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, with metastasis to the bone. The hosts express sympathy but maintain that this does not excuse alleged deception by the administration. Media and Political Accountability: The hosts criticize mainstream media and Democratic officials for allegedly covering up Biden’s condition. They argue that many knowingly misled the public and call for investigations into who was actually running the country during Biden’s presidency. Calls for Transparency and Investigation: The episode ends with a call for congressional hearings to uncover who was making decisions in the White House and to prevent similar situations in the future.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on 3 Martini Lunch. Scot and Greg react to the breaking news of Joe Biden's advanced prostate cancer diagnosis and the new questions it raises about his administration's transparency, the painful recordings of Biden and Special Counsel Robert Hur, and shocking attendance failures in Chicago Public Schools that officials keep rewarding.First, they discuss the serious and sad revelation that former President Biden is battling prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones. But this news also shines the spotlight even brighter on what Biden and his staff knew while he was president and whether they covered up this health crisis as well as his cognitive decline. And can we believe anything they tell us?Next, Scot and Greg examine the newly released audio from Biden's October 2023 interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur. The tapes directly contradict Democrats' spin and support Hur's conclusion that Biden was mentally diminished. Scot also stresses that the recent revelations in books and interviews are just a drop in the bucket and there are still many serious questions that linger. But the Biden team and the media have little incentive to answer them.Finally, they spotlight alarming data out of Chicago, where 25 percent of public school students missed at least 35 days of school last year. That's double the pre-pandemic absentee rate. But somehow graduation numbers continue to rise. Local school officials blame parents for no longer prioritizing in-person school attendance, but Scot and Greg know exactly who is responsible for creating that mindset.Please visit our great sponsors:If I needed to find a doctor quickly, Zocdoc is what I'd use.

I Think Ai has some good qualities, but does it belong in whiskey. Today we dive into the when, where and why Ai is rad or sad. Hope y'all enjoy.Patreon.com/the_whiskeyshamanBadmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3https://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==ChatGPT is a large language model developed by OpenAI. It's an AI chatbot that can understand and respond to natural language, making it useful for tasks like writing, translating, and generating text in various formats. It's built on a machine learning model called a transformer neural network and is trained on vast amounts of text data from the internet. Here's a more detailed breakdown:Natural Language Processing (NLP):ChatGPT excels at processing and understanding human language, allowing it to engage in conversations and generate text that appears natural and coherent. Generative AI:It's a type of generative AI, meaning it can create new content based on user prompts. This includes writing articles, poems, code, emails, and more. Transformer Neural Network:It uses a specific type of neural network called a transformer, which is particularly well-suited for tasks involving natural language. Vast Training Data:ChatGPT is trained on a massive amount of text data from the internet, allowing it to learn patterns and relationships in language. Applications:Its uses are diverse, ranging from customer service and writing assistance to educational tools and content creation. AI safety is a complex issue with both benefits and risks. While AI offers significant potential for advancements in various fields, it also presents dangers like bias, misuse, and potential existential threats if not carefully managed. Safeguards like responsible design, development, and deployment practices, along with ethical considerations, are crucial to mitigate these risks. Here's a more detailed look at the safety aspects of AI: 1. Potential Risks: Bias:AI systems can inherit and amplify biases present in their training data, leading to unfair or discriminatory outcomes. Misuse:AI could be used for malicious purposes, such as creating fake content, manipulating public opinion, or automating cyberattacks. Existential Risks:Some experts fear that advanced AI could pose existential threats, potentially leading to uncontrollable systems that could harm humanity. Lack of Transparency:Many AI systems, particularly deep learning models, can be difficult to understand, making it hard to identify and address potential problems. Cybersecurity:AI-powered systems can be vulnerable to cyberattacks, and AI can also be used to launch more sophisticated attacks. Environmental Impact:The development and use of AI infrastructure can have significant environmental consequences, particularly regarding energy consumption and data center emissions. 2. Mitigation Strategies and Ethical Considerations: Responsible Design and Development:.Opens in new tabImplementing ethical guidelines and standards during the design and development of AI systems is crucial to minimize bias and ensure fairness. Transparency and Explainability:.Opens in new tabDeveloping AI systems that are more transparent and explainable can help users understand how they make decisions and identify potential errors. Human Oversight and Control:.Opens in new tabMaintaining human oversight and control over AI systems is essential to prevent unintended consequences and ensure accountability. Data Ethics:.Opens in new tabAddressing the ethical implications of data used to train AI systems, including issues of privacy, fairness, and security, is crucial. AI Safety Research:.Opens in new tabInvesting in research focused on AI safety and security can help identify and address potential risks before they become widespread. 3.

Simina Fodor: Why the 'Why' Matters—Product Owner Communication Lessons Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. The Great Product Owner: Transparency and Customer Focus This exemplary Product Owner shaped Simina's entire view of product management and even inspired her to consider a future transition to that role. Despite not having a traditional product background (coming instead from support), this PO demonstrated exceptional openness to both giving and receiving feedback. They consistently explained the logic behind decisions, sharing the "why" that motivated their priorities. What truly set them apart was bringing customer perspectives and use cases directly to the team, helping developers understand the features through the lens of personas and user scenarios. The PO's transparency extended to their own professional journey, openly sharing how they grew into the role, which created an atmosphere of continuous learning and development. The Bad Product Owner: The Ghost Commander This experienced Product Owner approached the role with a command-and-control mindset carried over from previous Project Management experience, believing that backlog grooming was "beneath them." Essentially a ghost to the team, they avoided retrospectives while issuing constantly shifting priorities with little explanation or logic. The PO would issue commands and demand immediate responses without considering consequences, creating a toxic environment that threatened to destroy team morale. Simina recommends coaching such Product Owners on agile mindset principles and seeking leadership support when necessary to prevent team deterioration. Self-reflection Question: How can you effectively bridge the gap between command-and-control Product Owners and teams seeking more transparency and collaboration?
