Derek Liu, M&A Partner at Baker McKenzie AI talent deals are no longer small acquihires built around a simple price per engineer. Some now carry billion-dollar price tags, forcing buyers to rethink deal structure, diligence, tax exposure, and retention. Baker McKenzie's M&A Partner Derek Liu has personally signed over $110 billion in transactions from both sides of the table. That mismatch, old tools built for a different kind of deal, is what's forcing corp dev and legal teams to rework their playbook, and it's the throughline of this conversation. What You'll Learn The real cost difference between a stock purchase, an asset sale, and a sign and release What acquirers are actually diligencing when the product isn't the point Why a non-solicit clause outweighs a non-compete in California How a 100 percent revest changes the conversation with a founder Where HR becomes the bottleneck between LOI and close If you're structuring retention for a talent-driven acquisition, DealPilot, powered by M&A Science, has the deal guidance layer to help you get the revesting schedule and non-solicit right before you sign. ____________________ This episode of M&A Science is presented by DealRoom.

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study the book of Esther, one of the Bible's most remarkable stories of courage, faith, and redemption. Although God's name is never mentioned in the book, His hand can be seen on every page as He quietly prepares people and circumstances to bring about deliverance. Esther reminds us that even when the Lord seems absent, He is still writing a story of hope. As Queen Vashti, Mordecai, and Esther each make courageous choices, the discussion explores how God often works through ordinary people who are willing to trust Him. From unexpected opportunities to faithful friendships and timely acts of courage, every moment reveals that the Lord is present in ways we may only recognize when we look back. The story invites us to reflect on where we have already seen God's hand in our own lives. The episode also highlights Mordecai's famous reminder that Esther may have come "for such a time as this," encouraging us to trust that God has been preparing us long before we realize what lies ahead. Rather than calling only a few people to great acts of service, the Lord invites each of us to participate in quiet rescues, strengthening and lifting those He has placed in our path. Above all, the story of Esther points to Jesus Christ, whose redeeming power turns mourning into joy and fear into hope. Just as the decree of death was reversed and became a day of celebration, the gospel promises that every sorrow can one day be transformed. Because of Christ, our story is never finished on its hardest day. The Lord is still at work, leading us toward the good day He has prepared.

In a 21st-century knowledge economy where tech valuations eclipse physical industrial giants, traditional accounting frameworks like IAS 38 are struggling to reflect what actually drives modern corporate value. In this episode of Risky Women Radio, host Kimberley Cole sits down with strategic advisor, researcher, and governance expert Katrin Gülden Le Maire. Bringing a rare interdisciplinary lens spanning finance, tech, ESG, and philosophy, Katrin unpacks why intangible assets—from human relationships and talent to organisational trust—require a radical rethink in governance. Together, they explore why relying purely on quantitative algorithms misses the mark, how AI is reshaping human connective labour, and why courageous business leaders must take charge of defining social capital before regulators do it for them.

Send us Fan MailWe talk with Brooke Willette, Assistant Director of Admissions at the University of Vermont, about why the Common App activities list is one of the most underestimated parts of a college application. We share how admissions readers scan it, what makes descriptions stand out, and how authenticity and context can matter more than a long list of titles. • The real purpose of the activities section as a window into excitement, belonging, and campus fit • How quickly readers review activities and why strong headers and roles matter • Why quality beats quantity and how to move from “should” to genuine passion • How to choose which ten activities to include when you have more than ten • Whether the order of activities matters and how categories can help readers • Common mistakes in 150-character descriptions and how to be clear without repeating yourself • When and how to quantify impact with numbers without obsessing over exact hours • Redefining leadership beyond formal titles and highlighting quiet leadership • Valuing jobs, caregiving, and non-school responsibilities as real involvement • Including unique hobbies to add dimension and memorability in holistic admissions • What students overthink versus what admissions officers actually weigh • Adding context in Additional Information so changes in activities make sense If today's episode resonated with you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share this podcast with someone who needs study guidance right now.

What students achieve is tied to whether they feel valued — and the same is true for the teachers who serve them. In this Motivational Monday conversation, coach and author Debbie Simões (founder of Best Questers, co-author of High Five to Thrive) shows teachers how valuing students transforms a classroom, even on the hardest days. Drawing on years in inner-city classrooms, Debbie shares how to see past a child's behavior to the person of value underneath, how to communicate to connect instead of to correct, and how to be a "hope agent" for yourself and your colleagues in a season of burnout and teacher shortages. In this episode, you'll learn: Why "communicate to connect" changes how kids respond to correction The difference between behavior-based praise and identity-based praise How to respond when a student is at their worst What it means to be a "hope agent" when your own tank is low The mantra that can transform a school: people of value who value people and add value to them Full show notes and resources: https://www.coolcatteacher.com/e950 If this episode encouraged you, share it with a teacher friend and rate the show wherever you're listening.
July 14, 2026In 1870, a US exploring expedition headed to the Yellowstone River and reported back about the natural wonders of the area, The House Committee on Public Lands warned about letting the area be spoiled by private interests, In 1982 President Grant signed the bill making Yellowstone a national park, In 1890, the federal government stepped in to protect Yosemite, Presidents of both parties continued to protect American lands, New York Republican Theodore Roosevelt most dramatically expanded the effort to protect western lands, Roosevelt used the Antiquities Act to create national monuments and, then, the Grand Canyon, Since the 1980s Republicans have pushed to reopen public lands to resource development, Trump signed an executive order in his first term to review the designations of 22 national monuments and ordered land reductions in two of them, Biden restored those monuments to their original size, But although the national parks and monuments attract millions of visitors, support thousands of jobs, and bring billions of dollars into the local economies, Project 2025 has urged that the Antiquities Act be repealed, The Supreme Court seems eager to get a case that will allow them to reduce the scope of the Antiquities Act, or eliminate it altogether.

During Ep. 38 of the Ask the Law Firm Seller Show, Jeremy E. Poock, Esq. addresses the following question: What are the Components to Valuing a Law Firm? As Poock explains, “When it comes to valuing a law firm, there are 5 key components to the valuation for what a law firm is worth.” Those 5 components consist of the following: (1) Client List (2) Referral Source List (together with the Client List, the “Book of Business”) (3) Key Employee Lawyers & Support Staff (4) Subject Matter Knowledge (5) Digital Value Poock then poses the following 2 questions: (a) Who wants and needs the 5 Components of Value? and (b) What will they pay for it? Distinguishing between internal successors and Growing Law Firms, Poock points out that Growing Law Firms want and need the 5 Components of Value that a selling law firm offers because the 5 Components of Value compliment the following 3 resources that Growing Law Firms need: (1) More clients (2) Talented lawyers and support staff; and (3) Digital content Regarding how much a Growing Law Firm will pay for the 5 Components of Value, Poock explains the following 2 law firm sale structures: (1) Law Firm Sales 1.0 in which a seller's value primarily relates to its Book of Business (client list & referral source), where the financial terms typically involve an earnout pegged to collections derived by a purchasing law firm from a selling law firm's Book of Business during a negotiated period of time; and (2) Law Firm Sales 2.0, which involves a fixed price, plus earnout terms, where the fixed price derives from the predictability of client originations attributable a selling law firm's Digital Value and Brand Equity.

Ep. 237 | In the 19th dialogue of the A. H. Almaas Wisdom Series, an exploration of the final chapter of The Inner Journey Home, Hameed Ali looks at the evolution of Western culture and how it happened that soul, world, and God became divided as the culture developed. Hameed explains this was a necessary evolutionary step, an inherent part of our development, and though we lost our spiritual footing in the process (with secularization came a “gaping emptiness, meaninglessness, a lack of true fulfillment”), the separation of science and Church freed science and later psychology to take off on their own trajectories, leading to great strides in our understanding of our physical world and psychological make-up. The secularization of society turned out to have plenty of benefits, including improving the physical and economic well-being of many. But where does that leave us now, and what does the future hold? Will there be an integration of these disparate parts, where spiritual ground becomes a foundational piece of our next stage of evolution? Can the scientific perspective, with its precision and clarity of mind, be brought to bear on our inner life of spiritual inquiry as well as the outer nature of reality? In realizing that our soul needs life's encounters to mature—meditation alone is not enough—will we find the lost “pearl beyond price” individually and possibly collectively or in small groups? Hameed concludes by telling us that the Diamond Approach is about redeeming the mind: integrating the diamond clarity of the intellect with spiritual depth. He shares his vision of fully realized scientists merging a spiritual perspective with precise and penetrating inquiry, and ends with the wish for all human beings to know: “People who are listening… it's possible for you.” Recorded June 11, 2026.“The spiritual ground that science doesn't deal with is needed to complete the story.”Topics & Time StampsIntroducing dialogue #19 in the A.

Almaas) was born in Kuwait in 1944. At the age of eighteen, he moved to the U.S. to study at the University of California in Berkeley. Hameed was working on his Ph.D. in physics when he reached a turning point in his life and destiny that led him to inquire into the psychological and spiritual aspects of human nature rather than the physical nature of the universe. He left the academic world to pursue an in-depth journey of inner discovery, applying his scientific precision and discipline to personal, experiential research. This included study with different teachers in different modalities, extensive reading, and continuous study of his own consciousness in an effort to understand the essential nature of human experience and reality in general.Hameed's process of exploration led to the creation of the Ridhwan School and, with his colleague Karen Johnson, resulted in the founding and unfoldment of the Diamond Approach. He is the author of 20 books, including Nondual Love: Awakening to the Loving Nature of Reality, Love Unveiled: Discovering the Essence of the Awakened Heart, Keys to the...

In this episode, we welcome back Rita Shula, Senior Director of Caregiving at the AARP Public Policy Institute, for an insightful discussion about the staggering economic and social impact of family caregiving in America. Rita shares the latest findings from the AARP's "Valuing the Invaluable" report, revealing that family caregivers in the U.S. provided 50 billion hours of unpaid care in 2024—equivalent to $1.01 trillion in economic value, surpassing even national healthcare and Medicaid spending.The conversation covers growing trends in caregiving, from the shifting demographics—including younger and sandwich-generation caregivers—to the expanding responsibilities shouldered by families as loved ones live longer and home-based care becomes the norm. Rita outlines key advocacy efforts for tax credits, financial relief, and workplace policies that would better support caregivers' unique challenges.This episode is a must-listen for anyone providing care, considering taking on a caregiving role, or seeking ways to support this essential, often invisible workforce.Visit: https://aarp.org/caregivingSeniorLivingGuide.com Podcast sponsored by LIVDRY & Terrabella Senior LivingThe background music is written, performed, and produced exclusively by purple-planet.com.https://www.purple-planet.com/*SeniorLivingGuide.com Webinars and Podcast represent the opinions and expertise of our guests.

Christians love their neighbors as themselves. One way is by valuing the vulnerable, which means Christians value life from womb to tomb.

The Tom Dupree Show | Podcast Show Notes Buying a Stock Is Easy. Knowing When to Sell Is Everything. The Tom Dupree Show | Dupree Financial Group | dupreefinancial.com | 859-233-0400 Episode Description Every investor knows how to buy a stock. But the moment that determines real wealth — or real loss — is the moment you decide to sell. In this episode of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree, Lead Advisor Mike Johnson, and in-house analyst James Dupree lay out the sell discipline that has guided Dupree Financial Group’s portfolios for decades, including what triggers a trim, what triggers a full exit, and why waiting for someone else to tell you to sell is one of the costliest mistakes in investing. The conversation covers the full range of situations investors face: growth stocks valued on revenue and margin guidance, dividend payers evaluated on current yield, bonds that raised red flags in a management meeting, and legacy holdings kept alive by emotional attachment rather than logic. The team also addresses taxes, risk profile management, dry powder strategy, and the very human pull of FOMO that causes investors to ride winners too long — and losers even longer. “Buying a stock is easy. Selling a stock — regardless of whether it’s up or down — is a lot harder to do.” Topics Covered ● Why sell discipline is the foundation of a sound investment process — not an afterthought ● Valuing growth stocks on revenue guidance and gross margin targets rather than earnings alone ● How current yield signals when a dividend stock has priced in too much optimism ● The role of FOMO and emotional attachment in holding positions too long ● Real examples: Freddie Mac, WorldCom, Kraft Heinz, and a local company that went up 20x and back to zero ● Trimming vs. full exits: how partial sales create dry powder for new opportunities ● Tax-smart selling: harvesting losses, the 30-day wash sale rule, and gifting low-basis shares to charity ● Risk profile management: why one position becoming overweight is itself a sell signal ● Why Intel’s 26-year performance history is a cautionary tale about holding without a thesis ● The danger of relying on a single analyst’s buy list — and getting no sell guidance when markets turn Key Takeaways ● Have a sell target before you buy. When you purchase a stock, establish the price or valuation level at which you would be satisfied selling. If the stock blows past that target, revisit the thesis — don’t just let momentum make the decision for you. ● Valuation drives both buying and selling. A great company at the wrong price is still the wrong investment. Conversely, a mediocre company can become a strong buy when it gets cheap enough. Regularly re-evaluate what you own against current valuations, not just original purchase logic. ● Current yield is a sell signal for income stocks. When a dividend-paying stock rises sharply, its yield compresses. If a stock yielded 6.5% when purchased and now yields 3.4% solely because the price doubled, the market is pricing in a level of optimism worth locking in. Consider trimming. ● Trimming creates options. Most sell decisions don’t have to be all-or-nothing. Taking partial profits — and parking proceeds in money market as dry powder — gives you the flexibility to redeploy into new opportunities when they appear without being fully out of a strong holding. ● Watch your risk profile, not just your returns. If one position grows to become the largest holding in the portfolio due to price appreciation alone, that concentration is a risk even if the company is excellent. Rebalancing is not a sign of doubt — it’s disciplined portfolio management. ● Don’t let outdated advice run your portfolio. Tom shared the story of a widow who refused to sell two stocks because her late husband said never to — leaving her with a 2.1% yield when a redeployment could have generated 7%. Circumstances change. Investment advice should too. ● Emotions are the enemy of good sell decisions. FOMO causes investors to hold too long on the way up. Denial causes them to hold too long on the way down. An investment committee, a written thesis, and objective valuation metrics help counteract the emotional pull that derails individual investors. ● Taxes are part of the sell equation. In taxable accounts, realized gains have a cost. Pairing gains with losses (tax-loss harvesting), utilizing the 30-day wash sale rule carefully, and gifting low-basis shares to charity are all legitimate tools to make selling more tax-efficient.

I was recently speaking with an investor who was looking at the purchase of an agricultural property. During the discussion, a question came up that applies not only to farms, but to many types of real estate.What is the property actually worth?At first, that sounds like a simple question. But the answer depends on what exactly you're valuing.Let's use the example of a coffee farm with 1,000 mature coffee trees.----------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
Dr. Tom Bartlett has spent a lifetime proving that rangeland is worth a lot more than meets the eye. Tip sits down with this Colorado State University rangeland economist to discuss career that shifted from mathematical modeling to applied on-the-ground economics — and why Bartlett thinks the real value of public grazing lands is almost always misunderstood by policymakers. Along the way, they reflect on 60 years of Society for Range Management membership, the people who shaped the profession.

Organizational change is now a constant rather than a phase. Few stories illustrate this better than Hearst Networks' journey, as shared by Dean Possenniskie, CEO, and Lucy King, Chief People Officer, on this episode of Workplace Stories. Moving from a legacy cable business into a diversified, higher-margin media powerhouse, Hearst proves that reinvention is possible not just for startups but for well-established companies with deep roots and long histories.Hearst, an organization with a legacy and heritage, and a willingness to continually reinvent itself, has adopted the “phoenix” metaphor to frame its transformation. They've made hard choices, like closing brands, exiting joint ventures, and even shutting offices, before expanding into new partnerships with giants like Sky, Amazon, Apple, and YouTube. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...[07:59] Working in HR during transformations[12:36] Transitioning to full Hearst ownership[18:29] Crafting a purpose statement[21:12] Why it pays to implement a coaching mindset[25:30] Investing in learning and development[32:11] Defining company values and culture[37:08] Improving profitability and growth focus[39:16] Valuing autonomy and trust at Hearst[44:15] Encouraging innovation company-wide[47:14] Balancing governance with creative autonomyCulture at the CoreCulture is often seen as a soft layer, a set of values on a wall, or the flavor of the latest offsite. Dean Possenniskie and Lucy King see it differently: culture had to be the engine of transformation, integral to performance and strategy. One of Dean's earliest moves was to reposition the people and culture function away from finance, placing it directly alongside the CEO—a signal of culture's importance as a business driver.The results speak for themselves. While revenues declined 20%, margins grew by more than 40%, and internal workplace surveys saw “great place to work” scores leap from 53% to over 80%. This wasn't about being “nice,” but about creating a place where people could do their best work, take risks, and feel empowered.Building Change MuscleA core tenet of Hearst's approach to transformation was empowerment at every level. Lucy describes removing archaic performance systems and replacing them with coaching-centered one-to-ones, helping managers foster a sense of ownership, capability, and resilience in their teams. The organization invested in professional coaching for anyone, at any level, who requested it, a significant commitment, but one tailored for maximum impact rather than blanket sameness.This was complemented with mentoring, leveraging technology to link senior leaders with mentees across the company. This “bottom-up” ethos even shaped their AI and technology adoption: rather than mandating tools from the top, creative, programming, and scheduling teams were given room to experiment and bring forward the solutions that actually worked for them.The Power of Purpose and the “Deal”Change is unsettling, and ambiguity can erode trust. To anchor their people, the leadership spent months articulating a purpose statement—a north star for decision-making and daily work. More boldly, they introduced “our deal,” a written two-way document explaining not just what the company expected from employees, but what employees could expect in return: support, development, and clear direction.Dean describes this as adult-to-adult relationship building. It's about empowering personal leadership and ownership, backed by transparent communication—even when delivering hard messages or acknowledging failures. As they say, “we learn fast, not fail fast.” Resources & People MentionedAbout - HEARSTLeave Something on the Table: and Other Surprising Lessons for Success in Business and in Life by Frank Bennack The Problem with Change: And the Essential Nature of Human Performance Kindle Edition by Ashley Goodall Understand the network dynamics of culture'Sapiens' by Yuval Noah HarariConnect with Lucy King and Dean PossenniskieLucy King | Hearst Networks EMEA Dean Possenniskie | Hearst Networks EMEA Connect With Red Thread ResearchWebsite: RedThread ResearchOn LinkedInOn FacebookOn TwitterSubscribe to WORKPLACE STORIES
Who controls what happens between women's legs after menopause?It's a confronting question, but one that sits at the heart of this episode.In this short, powerful conversation, I am joined by menopause specialist and sexologist Dr Angela Wright to explore why so many women — particularly those who have had cancer — are still being denied access to vaginal and vulval oestrogen treatments. And why we're not routinely having the conversation about sexual health after cancer treatment.Despite being widely recognised as one of the most effective and low-risk treatments for genitourinary symptoms of menopause (GSM), access remains incredibly low. Many women are left navigating pain, dryness, recurrent infections, loss of sexual function, and a deep impact on identity and relationships — often without being offered treatment. Or they're told ‘no'.This episode explores:Why are women not allowed to make an informed choice about their intimate health?The realities of genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) — and why it's more than “just dryness”The added complexity for women on treatments like aromatase inhibitors (e.g. Letrozole)The emotional and relational impact of untreated symptomsHow history, culture, and medical caution continue to shape women's access to careThe growing body of guidance suggesting low-dose vaginal hormones may be appropriate for many women, including after breast cancerThe balance between clinical responsibility and patient autonomyThis is not a black-and-white conversation. It's not about right or wrong.It's an invitation — to think, to question, and to open up more honest, informed conversations between patients and healthcare professionals.Because at its core, is it about choice?Links mentioned in this episode:You can find Dr Wright here: https://spicedpearhealth.co.uk/about/Sweetness of Venus: A history of the clitoris book https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sweetness-Venus-History-Clitoris/dp/B08W3NZ1H9Women's Health Made Easy Book: for Healthcare Professionals, click hereMore information about vaginal oestrogen after breast cancer: https://menopauseandcancer.org/navigating-vaginal-oestrogen-after-breast-cancer-what-every-woman-needs-to-know/Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro05:36 Doctor's journey and women's health08:17 Challenges of Menopause Treatment10:32 Debating hormone prescription guidelines14:25 Discussing medical trauma and autonomy18:19 Discussing bodily agency and benefits21:18 Reclaiming life after trauma24:31 Understanding compliance with endocrine therapies26:42 Valuing women's opinions in healthcare29:48 Discussing erectile dysfunction post-cancer34:39 Opening conversations on sexual healthConnect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancerJoin our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathub

Free is not always free. Sometimes it costs you the most valuable asset you have. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why trying to do everything yourself just to save money can actually keep you broke. Let's be real… If you spend five hours trying to fix a problem just to save fifty dollars… You are valuing your time at ten dollars an hour. And if you are the CEO… That math does not work. In this episode, you'll learn: Why doing everything yourself can become a massive liability How low-level tasks steal time from high-value revenue work Why hiring experts is often cheaper than wasting your own hours How to buy back your time and focus on the vision The truth is simple: Your job is not to save every penny. Your job is to build wealth. That means knowing when to delegate. Knowing when to hire. Knowing when to pay for speed. And knowing when your time is too valuable for the task in front of you. Too many founders stay stuck trying to save money… While losing the hours they need to actually scale. Free can be expensive. Cheap can be slow. And doing it yourself can become the biggest bottleneck in your business. Protect your time. Deploy your capital. Hire the experts. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Most lawyers focus on how to argue damages. Very few spend enough time truly understanding the loss. And jurors can feel that. In this week's episode, I break down the 3 components every damages argument needs: Understanding the loss Valuing the loss Communicating the loss We also talk about: Why metaphor matters How small stories hit harder than big explanations A simple framework I use to think about non-economic damages Because damages aren't about formulas. They're about helping jurors understand what was taken. Love, Sari P.S. If this episode hit home for you, my live webinar on May 28th is going even deeper into how the H2H Method™ helps jurors connect to what actually matters in trial.

How do you know if you're truly adding value to those around you, or just going through the motions? In this week's episode, John Maxwell reveals the five essential questions every leader should ask to elevate their influence and impact. After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede dive into their strategies for weaving these value-adding principles into your everyday leadership. Key takeaways: Before you can add value to others, you must recognize and develop the unique value you bring to the table. Valuing what you do—and the people you serve—is the foundation for authentic influence and sustained growth. Leaders multiply their impact by continuously growing themselves and intentionally focusing on what is best for others, not just them. Our BONUS resource for this episode is the Five Questions to Help You Add Value to Others Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching.
