In today's fast-moving VUCA world (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) businesses can no longer afford to confuse motion with progress. In this high-impact episode, we sit down with Ron Brumbarger, American entrepreneur and founder of Struinova, an “innovation-as-a-service” firm helping organisations unlock new products, services, and processes that genuinely delight customers. Ron delivers a candid exploration of why companies stall, the dangers of systemic blind spots, and what it really takes to build a sustainable culture of innovation.

Whether you're a founder, executive, or innovator inside a large organisation, this conversation is your blueprint for staying relevant in an increasingly unforgiving market. What You'll Learn: Confronting Organisational Blind Spots Why waiting for permission kills innovation, and how to lead with urgency of agency How inattentional blindness sabotages even high-performing teams Where middle-management friction stalls progress, and how to refocus on issues, not egos The myth of "guaranteed revenue" and why G-A-R-R is a dangerous illusion Building a Strategic Innovation Portfolio A practical definition of innovation: net new or enhanced value that delights customers How to assess the real value of your innovation portfolio, and why most leaders don't TAM vs. SOM: Why chasing Total Addressable Market is a distraction How to create your own "Purple Cow" in a Blue Ocean" and avoid the commodity trap Why innovation lives in the estuary between your team and your customers Leading Change with Core Disciplines Why humility is a superpower in the innovation game The role of trust, not just with clients, but within your team Practicing empathetic curiosity to unlock customer insights Plus: Marcus Cauchi's powerful insight “Think as your customer, not about them.”

When Damon Lee reflects on his first conversations with C.H. Robinson's CEO, he recalls how natural the alignment felt. “We spoke the same language. We were finishing each other's sentences,” Lee tells us. For a finance leader whose ambition had long been to step into the CFO chair, the clarity of vision he encountered at Robinson made the opportunity stand out.Lee emphasizes that Robinson's longevity mattered. “A company that survived and thrived for 120 years—that's special in its own right,” he tells us. The business, rooted in logistics services, relies on people as its core differentiator. “Our people really make the difference with our customers,” he adds, underscoring why the culture resonated with him.What sealed the decision, however, was the simplicity of the CEO's plan. “We're going to outgrow the market, we're going to expand our operating margins, we're going to do both,” Lee recounts. Complexity, in his view, often derails execution. A straightforward mandate with conviction behind it gave him confidence that transformation was possible.The CEO, Lee notes, wanted more than a traditional finance executive. He wanted someone who could “show up like a CEO,” bring lean discipline, and act as a true partner in reshaping the company. For Lee, this aligned perfectly with the operational mindset that had guided his career.After more than a year in the role, he reflects simply: “We're winning in the marketplace. We're winning in the eyes of investors. So certainly it was the right move for me, no doubt.”

In this latest installment of Noid Knowledge, Jason Wilson from the Curious About Cannabis podcast discusses with our host Evan Friedmann and guests TJ Martin, Ian Oswald, and Kyle Boyar, their experiences at the American Chemical Society (ACS) conference in San Diego. Wilson shares insights from a conversation with colleagues about their research on volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) in cannabis, which contribute to its aroma. They found that while most VSCs were present in low concentrations, some strains like Gelato and GMO had higher levels. They also discussed the importance of proper packaging, noting that mylar bags can effectively retain these compounds. The conversation highlights the need for better analytical methods and open-access research to advance the cannabis industry.

AS WE, AS AMERICANS, WATCH THE CHRISTIAN CHURCHES EMPTY OUT IN EUROPE AND THEN BEING REPLACED WITH MUSLIMS, COMMON SENSE TELLS US JOHN Q. PUBLIC OF AMERICA, THE SIMPLE PEOPLE OF AMERICA, THAT OUR LORD JESUS IS NOT BLESSING THE FASTFOOD FREEWILL CHURCH THAT DOMINATES EUROPE AND AMERICA, BECAUSE IT DOES NOT REPRESENT, HIM, BUT A FALSE CHRIST.

PUBLIC OF AMERICA BEING THE SIMPLE PEOPLE OF AMERICA SAY TO OURSELVES WHAT CHURCH DOCTRINE WERE THESE FAMOUS PILGRIMS UNDER AND SHOULD NOT WE AS AMERICANS BE UNDER THE SAME DOCTRINE. WAS THERE DOCTRINE COMPLETELY CONTRARY TO THE DOMINANT DOCTRINE OF AMERICA TODAY? ANSWER - YES!!!IN THIS MESSAGE WE WILL FIND THE CHURCH IS INEXTRICABLY TIED TO THE NATION-THEY ARE ONE.

IF THE ORIGINAL INTENT OF THESE OFFICES OF THE PRESIDENCY, ARE NOT IN LOCKSTEP WITH THE CONSTITUTION, THE ORINAL INTENT MUST BE MADE AGAIN KNOWN TO US JOHN Q. PUBLIC OF AMERICA, SO WE KNOW HOW TO PRAY. LIKEWISE WE MUST COME TO UNDERSTAND, AS JOHN Q. PUBLIC OF AMERICA THE OFFICES OF THE 2ND PERSON OF THE TRINITY, JESUS, WHO IS THE LORD OF HOSTS WHICH COMPARABLE TO PRESIDENT TRUMP AS COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF OUR AMERICAN MILITARY. WE MUST COME TO KNOW WHAT AUTHORITY JESUS HAS AS KING OF KINGS WHICH IS COMPARABLE TO PRESIDENT AS THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE. BUT IN THIS MESSAGE THE BULK OF TIME WILL BE SPENT ON THE OFFICE OF JESUS AS THE LORD OF HOSTS AND PRESIDENT TRUMPS RELATIONSHIP TO THE LORD OF HOSTS, WHETHER HE KNOWS IT NOT, AND HOW VERY IMPORTANT HE KNOWS ABOUT IT WHETHER OR NOT HE IS A CHRISTIAN FOR EITHER WAY HE WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO THE LORD OF HOSTS. IF YOU SEE THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS MESSAGES, PLEASE SHARE IT, FOR IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE FOR THE SURVIVAL OF AMERICA.

Volatile trading action was seen near the end of Wednesday's trading session, a common trend Kevin Green noted for this week. One bullish sign: vast market breadth, which Kevin says is bullish long-term if markets experience rotation. As Nvidia (NVDA) reports earnings, watch activity in names connected to the A.I. giant.

Born into a life where stability was a luxury and survival was an art form, this week's guest grew up in constant motion—14 moves before the age of nine, a childhood spent in the shadow of volatile parents, and a home where hard truths were served without filter. With no safety net and no family wealth to fall back on, she learned early that the only way forward was to create her own path from whatever scraps she could find.In this episode, we dig into what it means to build a life entirely from resourcefulness and grit: the lessons learned in poverty, the beauty and burden of relentless self-reliance, and the fine line between chasing your passions and selling out just enough to survive. From navigating the art world without privilege to turning trash into treasures, from living at a pace most people can't keep up with to embracing her identity as a “tornado for good,” she reveals the raw truth about what it takes to keep going when nothing is handed to you.If you've ever felt like the odds were stacked against you, wondered how to turn hardship into fuel, or questioned whether passion can survive under pressure, this conversation is for you. It's a fierce, unfiltered look at resilience, reinvention, and the wild, messy beauty of making something from nothing.Earth Monster is the storytelling podcast that uncovers the real stories and biggest ideas that have shaped our lives. Subscribe for more episodes that celebrate the messy, beautiful journey of being human.

Feeling overwhelmed by the complexities of leadership today? Tune in to learn how building your self-regulation can help you navigate dysregulated times and have more effective conversations. In this episode, my co-host Jenn David-Lang and I had the pleasure of speaking with the amazing Jennifer Abrams, whom I see as a guru of interpersonal relations in education. Jennifer, a full-time international consultant and author of impactful books like Having Hard Conversations and Stretching Your Learning Edge: Growing (up) at Work, joined us to explore the critical topic of self-regulation in dysregulated times. We talked about living in a VUKA world, Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous, and how we need to build complexity fitness by developing our cognitive, emotional, and psychological skills. Jennifer shared that becoming more self-regulated involves building self-awareness, like cleaning up our emotional "dust". It turns out only about 10-15% of people are truly self-aware, and one way to improve is by bravely asking for 360 feedback from your team. We also dove into practical skills for leaders navigating challenging moments, such as learning to suspend certainty that your way is the only way. Saying "Tell me more" instead of reacting can be incredibly powerful. For extroverts like me, focusing on listening instead of jumping in is key. I shared my favorite tactic when someone is stressed: asking, "How long do we have to make this decision?". This simple question helps shift from feeling "subject" to circumstances to viewing them more "objectively". Jennifer left us with powerful parting advice: "Go have humane, growth-producing conversations. That's the goal.".

"Companies pay duties when they shouldn't—and often don't know they can get them back." — Noa Sussman, TecEx In this latest installment of the TecEx Podcast Series, Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green is joined once again by Noa Sussman of TecEx for a deep dive into one of the least understood yet most impactful opportunities in global trade: duty drawbacks. With tariffs in flux and new rounds expected as early as August, Sussman emphasizes that even experienced IT hardware exporters may be leaving money on the table. Tariff volatility—especially under recent and forthcoming U.S. trade policies—means that companies importing equipment, only to re-export it or return unsold or damaged merchandise, may qualify for substantial reimbursements. The problem? Most don't realize they're eligible—or assume the process is too complex to pursue. Sussman walks through real-world cases, including a company importing $3 million worth of rockets later launched by SpaceX. Because the hardware technically leaves U.S. territory, that business can apply to recover hundreds of thousands in duties—a scenario that applies even to one-off imports. Whether it's unused merchandise, rejected goods, or components used in U.S.-based manufacturing for re-export, companies may qualify for duty drawbacks—if they file correctly and document thoroughly. TecEx acts as a strategic partner in these scenarios, providing case-by-case analysis and only charging if savings are found. Sussman compares the service to that of a seasoned tax advisor: one who understands obscure government programs and evolving rules across jurisdictions. More importantly, the conversation elevates trade compliance from a back-office function to a boardroom imperative. As tariffs affect profitability, C-suite leaders must engage early in supply chain planning to ensure compliance, mitigate risk, and improve margins. Learn more at tecex.com.

“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently.”With those words, Warren Buffett reminded us that character and integrity matter—especially in the world of money. Now, after more than sixty years of market-shaping moves and famous one-liners, Buffett is calling it a career. Today, Matt Bell joins us to reflect on his legacy and share what timeless lessons every investor can learn from it.Matt Bell is the Managing Editor at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. A Track Record That's Hard to IgnoreIf you had invested $100 in Berkshire Hathaway back in 1965, that single investment would have grown to over $5.5 million by the end of last year. Compare that with the S&P 500 over the same period, which would have turned $100 into just $39,000. Clearly, Buffett did something different.One unconventional move? He never issued dividends for Berkshire Hathaway, instead reinvesting profits to increase share value. That patient, long-view approach paid off—and it hints at biblical principles like delayed gratification and wise stewardship (Proverbs 21:20).Buffett famously said, “Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.” While Christians would rightly reject greed and fear as motivations, the deeper principle here is about remaining steady and disciplined in volatile times—echoing Proverbs 14:15: “The simple believe everything, but the prudent give thought to their steps.”Buffett often waited with cash on hand until the right opportunities appeared, especially during downturns. That patience and discernment mirrors biblical instruction to avoid impulsiveness and instead seek wisdom in decision-making.Investing Lessons With Biblical ParallelsOver the years, Buffett offered dozens of pithy insights that mirror biblical truth. Here are a few standouts:“If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you'll work until you die.”—This speaks to the wisdom of putting money to productive use—earning a return through thoughtful investing, a principle echoed in the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25). “Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing.”—In Proverbs 15:22, we're reminded that “Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed.” Financial ignorance creates risk, but biblical stewardship calls for wisdom and learning. Diversification, emotional control, and long-term vision—Buffett emphasized all three. These align with a measured, prudent approach to money that Scripture continually encourages.Buffett never let global turmoil shake his confidence in long-term investing. He wrote, “In the 20th century, the U.S. endured world wars, recessions, a depression, oil shocks, and more—yet the Dow rose from 66 to 11,497.” His takeaway: “It's been a terrible mistake to bet against America.”While our hope as Christians isn't rooted in any one nation's economy, Buffett's long view reminds us of the value of endurance and not making decisions based on fear or short-term noise (see James 1:5–6).Generosity and LegacyPerhaps most inspiring is Buffett's commitment to give away 99% of his wealth. He plans to direct his Berkshire Hathaway shares toward philanthropic causes within ten years of his estate being settled. While we may differ on where those funds go, the posture of open-handed generosity reflects Jesus' teaching: “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35).Buffett's success wasn't just about intellect—it was about character: discipline, patience, and generosity. These are values every believer is called to cultivate. As you manage your resources, consider how biblical principles—often echoed in even the most unlikely places—can shape a wise, faithful financial life.To explore these ideas further, read Matt Bell's full article, The Wisdom of Warren Buffett at SoundMindInvesting.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I've never had a credit card before, but I recently received a pre-qualified offer from Capital One.

From microloans for farmers to free savings accounts for the ‘unbanked' to customised insurance for gig workers to a cheaper, faster way for migrants to send money to loved ones: a growing range of services is helping many of the world's least advantaged citizens increase their financial resilience. Previously, banks and other traditional lending institutions overlooked these customers. But as impact director Ed Whitten explains, by backing the companies now involved, you have an opportunity to improve people's lives and achieve strong growth. Background:Ed Whitten is an impact director in Baillie Gifford's Positive Change Strategy. Its dual objective is to provide our clients with attractive returns while contributing to a more inclusive, healthy world. Whitten's role is to ensure that the companies it holds fulfil the second part of that pledge. In this episode, he explores the topic of financial inclusion, explaining why the companies involved need to do more than simply provide access to loans, insurance and money transfers. Topics include how firms can use data and apps to deliver customised services that address specific people's needs while protecting them from indebtedness. Whitten also explains how conversations with the companies Positive Change backs can nudge them towards better outcomes, such as providing customers with better financial education. And he explores the importance of helping people gain financial resilience against the effects of climate change and other events that could otherwise devastate their livelihoods. Companies covered include: Nubank – the digital-only bank used by most Brazilian adults that's also growing in Mexico and Colombia. Grab – the south-east Asian ride-hailing and delivery service that provides loans and insurance to drivers and merchants using its platform. Remitly – the remittance service offering migrants a quick, low-cost and reliable way to transfer money to family and friends. HDFC Bank – the Indian lender expanding its rural branch network to explain face-to-face how its services can put customers on a better financial path. Resources:Case study: MaligaNubank's Beyond Access studyPositive Conversations 2024The Song of the CellTrip Notes: Brazil (UK version / Ex-UK version) Companies mentioned include:ChimeBank Rakyat IndonesiaGrabHDFC BankMercadoLibreNubankRemitly Timecodes:00:00 Introduction02:05  From the British Army to impact investing03:40  A sustainable, inclusive, healthy world04:25  The different types of financial inclusion05:40  Eyes open to the risks of indebtedness06:45  Volatile repayment rates07:35  Beyond accessibility: the personalisation of products09:05  Partnering with CGAP and other development bodies10:25   Nubank's Caixinha money boxes12:45   Nubank's Mexican banking licence14:15   Ensuring growth comes with impact15:20   Grab's loans and insurance16:40   Grab's data-driven approach to risk19:45   The fast growth of remittances 21:25   Remitly's cheaper money transfers22:35  Gaining market share from Western Union23:40  HDFC Bank's expanding rural branch network24:55  Financial inclusion in advanced economies26:55  The ‘lucrative customers of the future'28:15   Book choice
