Alle reden davon, dass KI die Einstiegsjobs frisst. Virginia Sondergeld von Indeed schaut in die Daten — und die zeigen etwas anderes.Die Einstiegsjobs gehen zurück, das stimmt. Aber der Rückgang begann schon im Frühjahr 2022, und in den Daten lässt sich KI bisher nicht als Ursache isolieren. Sobald man Remote-Arbeit mitrechnet, verschwindet der KI-Effekt. Virginia erklärt, warum Unternehmen trotzdem gern "wegen KI" entlassen — und was dieses Signaling mit Angst und Unsicherheit unter Arbeitnehmenden macht.Dazu geht es um den Mismatch am Arbeitsmarkt (genug Bewerbungen, aber nicht die richtigen), den demografischen Wandel mit drei Millionen Menschen, die bis 2040 aus dem Erwerbsalter ausscheiden, und darum, warum Frauen KI seltener nutzen als Männer — und was das langfristig für ihre Karrieren bedeutet.Über den Gast: Virginia Sondergeld ist Arbeitsmarktökonomin bei Indeed und arbeitet mit Indeed-Daten zur Zukunft der Arbeit.Studien und Daten aus der Folge:- Canaries in the Coal Mine (Brynjolfsson u.a.): https://digitaleconomy.stanford.edu/app/uploads/2025/11/CanariesintheCoalMine_Nov25.pdf- The Broken Ladder (Lambert & Schindler): https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=6787638- Indeed Datenportal: https://data.indeed.com/- Frauen und Männer in der KI-Transformation: https://www.hiringlab.org/de/blog/2026/04/21/frauen-und-maenner-in-der-ki-transformation-gleiches-potenzial-ungleiche-nutzung/Mehr HR Weekly:- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HRWeekly- beyobie: https://www.beyobie.comWERBEPARTNERUnser heutiger Partner ist die Union Krankenversicherung.Mit dem Vorsorgetarif erhalten Mitarbeitende bis zu 500 € pro Jahr für Vorsorgeuntersuchungen – darunter Blutbild, Lungenfunktion, Hautkrebsscreening und viele weitere Checks.Besonders praktisch: Einige Untersuchungen, wie das Hautkrebsscreening, können digital und ohne lange Wartezeiten durchgeführt werden.Außerdem gibt es keine Gesundheitsprüfung und keinen umfangreichen Fragenkatalog zu Vorerkrankungen.

Okay, for real, this episode is only vaguely about Raicilla. It's a bit more about profound justifications — that's a reference to a quote from my guest co-host, Shawn Miller of PKGD Group. He brings that quote up as we're talking about the white paper PKGD released a few weeks ago. That white paper is what this episode is really about. But who would listen to an episode titled, “The one about Shawn's white paper”? Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico.

We picture China as a place where no one dares speak out, but the reality is quite different. In 2025, despite one of the most sophisticated censorship machines on earth, workers protested over unpaid wages, homebuyers demanded stalled apartments, and rural communities pushed back against land dispossession. In this episode, hosts Ray Powell and Jim Carouso sit down with Kevin Slaten, who leads Freedom House's China Dissent Monitor, the only public database tracking protests across China, from its office in Taipei. Slaten's team recorded about 40 to 50 percent more dissent in 2025 than the year before, including the largest pre-Lunar New Year labor protest peak the project has ever recorded. The twist: US budget cuts had recently knocked the project offline for four months, and it still came back with a skeleton crew to record its highest numbers yet. Fewest resources ever, most dissent ever recorded.Slaten explains what more than 15,000 cases reveal about the real China beneath the propaganda--an economy under strain, a “social contract” that may never have been one, and why even “local” protests matter politically in an authoritarian system. He also unpacks who protests and why, where Beijing's red lines fall, and how protest pressure can actually produce real concessions, from policy reversals to quiet legal changes.Key topics:Why dissent is rising even as China tightens censorshipWho is protesting: workers, homebuyers, rural residents, and moreHow Beijing decides what to tolerate, censor, or crushThe 2022 White Paper protests: anomaly or symptom?A school bullying case that spiraled into crowds chanting “we want democracy”If you want to understand where China is really heading, pay attention to the people already demanding change.Subscribe for your weekly Indo-Pacific briefing.Follow Kevin Slaten on X, @KevinSlaten, or on LinkedIn Follow us on X, @IndoPacPodcast, LinkedIn or FacebookFollow Ray Powell on X, @GordianKnotRay, or LinkedIn, or check out his maritime transparency work at SeaLightFollow Jim Carouso on LinkedInSponsored by BowerGroupAsia, a strategic advisory firm that specializes in the Indo-Pacific

BSI Reports and Whitepapers provide expert insights, guidance, and analysis on various topics related to standards, compliance, and best practices. They are designed to inform and educate organizations, industries, and policymakers about emerging trends, challenges, and opportunities in areas where standards play a critical role.This episode is an abridged audio version of the BSI Report - The Value of Creating a Culture of Trust: Exploring the impact of workplace health and wellbeing support on productivity.Across many advanced economies, productivity has stagnated while economic inactivity and workplace absence linked to ill-health have increased. As employers navigate demographic change, evolving ways of working and growing wellbeing challenges, understanding how workplace culture influences productivity has become an increasingly important priority for organizations and policymakers alike.The Creating a Culture of Trust report examines how employee confidence in raising health and wellbeing challenges affects productivity across the UK, US and Germany. Drawing on new research, it introduces the concept of the “confidence productivity premium” and shows how supportive workplace cultures and standards-based approaches can reduce absenteeism, improve retention and unlock measurable economic value for employers and the wider economy.Series | AudiobooksFind out more about the issues raised in this episodeThe Value of Creating a Culture of TrustGet involved with standardsGet in touch with The Standards Showeducation@bsigroup.comsend a voice messageFind and follow on social mediaX @StandardsShowInstagram @thestandardsshowLinkedIn | The Standards Show

In dieser Folge spricht Katharina mit Steffi über Kommunikation unter Unsicherheit, die Frage was man zurückhält und was man sagt, und warum HR-Führungskräfte so oft das Gesicht für Nachrichten sind, die niemand hören will.Außerdem: Warum der Unterschied zwischen Director People und CPO nicht die Jobbeschreibung ist, sondern ob man mit am Tisch sitzt wenn Entscheidungen fallen.

Private capital is playing an increasingly visible role in the defense industrial base, but its impact depends less on the amount of money flowing in than on how effectively government demand shapes investment decisions. The central question for policymakers is not whether capital is available, but whether the system converts that capital into deployable capability. In this episode, host Dr. Arun Seraphin is joined by Sam Moyer, Research Fellow at NDIA's Emerging Technologies Institute (ETI), to discuss ETI's recent work on mobilizing private capital for defense. The conversation examines how different forms of private capital, including venture, private equity, and internal investment, interact with the Department of Defense acquisition system, and why investors ultimately respond to credible signals of future demand. Moyer outlines a framework for understanding what drives investment into the defense sector: demand signaling, catalytic capital tools, and the broader business environment. He explains how mechanisms such as acquisition roadmaps, long-term purchase commitments, and communication between government and industry can reduce uncertainty and lower the cost of capital. The discussion also addresses newer policy tools, including federal equity investments and loan programs, and the governance and oversight challenges they introduce. The episode highlights a key constraint on defense innovation: investment is already present, but its effectiveness depends on whether the system is legible and predictable to investors. Improving clarity and alignment, not simply increasing funding, will shape the next phase of growth in the defense industrial base.  Read ETI's White Paper " Mobilizing Private Capital for Defense: Tactics and Recommendations": https://www.emergingtechnologiesinstitute.org/-/media/ndia-eti/reports/mobilizing-capital-for-defense/mobilizingcapitalreport_2026_final.pdf.    For updates on our content, sign up for our weekly mailer: https://www.emergingtechnologiesinstitute.org/sign-up 2026 NDIA Emerging Technologies for Defense Conference and Exhibition September 8-10, 2026, at the Walter E.

Wie das geht: Priorisierung statt Durchoptimieren.In dieser Folge spricht Katharina mit Swantje Allmers, Gründerin & CEO von New Work Masterskills, über Selbstführung im Führungsalltag. Es geht um den Unterschied zwischen effizient und effektiv, darum, warum die wichtigen Dinge fast nie dringend sind und trotzdem liegen bleiben, und wie man große Aufgaben über einen „schlechten ersten Entwurf" überhaupt erst angeht. Außerdem: warum Swantje morgens nie zuerst in die Mails schaut und wie sie ihren Tag nach Energiekurve plant.Im zweiten Teil geht es um Wertschätzung — warum ein Daumen-hoch im Team-Chat nicht reicht, und um ihre zentrale These: Die Resilienz eines Teams hängt zu rund 70 % davon ab, wie resilient die Führungskraft selbst ist.Über den Gast: Swantje Allmers ist seit rund 15 Jahren Beraterin, Trainerin und Executive Coach, Co-Autorin von „On the Way to New Work".Mehr HR Weekly:- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HRWeekly- beyobie: https://www.beyobie.com- Katharina auf LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katharina-schulze/- HR Weekly auf LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/hr-weekly/-- unsere WerbepartnerUnser heutiger Partner ist die Union Krankenversicherung.Mit dem Vorsorgetarif erhalten Mitarbeitende bis zu 500 € pro Jahr für Vorsorgeuntersuchungen – darunter Blutbild, Lungenfunktion, Hautkrebsscreening und viele weitere Checks.Besonders praktisch: Einige Untersuchungen, wie das Hautkrebsscreening, können digital und ohne lange Wartezeiten durchgeführt werden.Außerdem gibt es keine Gesundheitsprüfung und keinen umfangreichen Fragenkatalog zu Vorerkrankungen.

The Author Events Series presents M Lin | The Memory Museum: Stories In Conversation with 'Pemi Aguda Stretching from the present day to the near future, from China to America and beyond, M Lin's piercing and melodious debut captures the spirit of China's One-Child Generation as its characters navigate homes and cultures, hopes and contradictions, survival and resistance. These frank, tender, and playful stories offer profound insight into the ambivalence of migration, the perverse ways race and class can operate, and what it means to be Chinese today. The collection begins with ''Scenes from Childhood,'' in which a lonely, elderly woman in a dystopian reality remembers her grandfather's village. In ''Magic, or Something Less Assuring,'' a politically divided couple goes on a divorce honeymoon in Morocco. ''You Won't Read This in the News'' features four migrant workers during one night of petty theft and connection. In ''Tough Egg,'' a filmmaker thwarted by censorship untangles her fraught relationship to motherhood. Other stories portray a photographer reuniting with her first love in Beijing; the historic White Paper protests that ended the zero-COVID policy; and generations into the future, a newly instated Memory Museum where two sensory architects share their vision for a utopian world. With daring political and creative commitment, The Memory Museum brims with joy even as Lin exposes the knife's edge between powerlessness and agency, pain and intimacy, our memories and our futures. M Lin is a Chinese writer living in the US. Her stories have appeared in Ploughshares, Swamp Pink, Joyland, Epiphany, Fence, and Best Debut Short Stories 2023, and her nonfiction can be read in The New York Times, Guernica, The Rumpus, and elsewhere. 'Pemi Aguda is the author of One Leg on Earth, and Ghostroots, a finalist for the National Book Award, the LA Times First Fiction Prize and the PEN/Faulkner Award. She is from Lagos, Nigeria.

After more than four years of conflict, the war in Ukraine has produced an unprecedented body of data on rapid innovation, emerging technology, and the evolving role of drone warfare and unmanned systems on the modern battlefield. The pressing question for U.S. defense planners is which of those lessons can be translated to the U.S. way of war, and which, if applied too directly, risk misdirecting future force development.In this episode, host Dr. Arun Seraphin is joined by Anna Kim, Associate Research Fellow at the Emerging Technologies Institute (ETI), and Matt Dooley, President and CEO of Fidelium and Chair of the NDIA Robotics Division, to discuss their ETI white paper, "Beyond Attrition: Interpreting the Limits of Lessons from Ukraine for Future US Force Development." The paper examines what full integration of drone technologies, autonomous systems, and emerging military technologies into the U.S. Joint Force would actually require.The conversation explores why Ukraine's battlefield innovation and drone-driven "iteration under fire" model cannot be copied wholesale into the U.S. statutory and industrial environment, the enduring importance of combined arms warfare, and why the future force depends on integrating attritable unmanned systems with legacy maneuver platforms rather than choosing between them. Kim and Dooley also discuss the Army's Transformation in Contact (TiC) and Human Machine Integrated Formation (HMIF) initiatives, Project Convergence, and the Pentagon's Drone Dominance program, along with the production, sustainment, and training challenges of fielding robotic, autonomous, and emerging technology-enabled warfare capabilities at the scale a future fight will demand.Read ETI's White Paper "Beyond Attrition: Interpreting the Limits of Lessons from Ukraine for Future US Force Development": https://www.emergingtechnologiesinstitute.org/publications/brief-series/beyond-attritionLearn more about NDIA's Robotics Division: https://www.ndia.org/divisions/roboticsFor updates on our content, sign up for our weekly mailer: https://www.emergingtechnologiesinstitute.org/sign-upSAVE THE DATE:2026 NDIA Future Force Capabilities Conference & Exhibition, June 8–10, 2026, at Caesars Forum in Las Vegas, NV — where Anna and Matt will continue the conversation: https://ndiaffc.org2026 NDIA Emerging Technologies for Defense Conference and ExhibitionSeptember 9-10, 2026, at the Walter E.

Two hundred episodes in, and somehow we ended up across the table from the person who runs the whole system. For the TSR 200th, Dylan and Hayden sit down with Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson, and waste none of it on small talk.First, the SEND white paper. The move from EHCPs to the new Individual Support Plans sounds tidy, but it could leave families without the right to appeal at a tribunal. What happens to children with complex needs when the funding does not follow?Then the part that stings any new parent on staff. Civil servants get 26 weeks on full pay, teachers get eight. That opens up parental pay, a dropping birth rate, the quiet saving fewer pupils hand the Treasury, and whether the real answer is cutting class sizes rather than closing schools and cutting jobs.And the big one. A projected 6.5% pay rise over three years that is not fully funded. We asked the Education Secretary directly where that money comes from, and who loses their job to pay for it.Honest, occasionally tense, and exactly the conversation we wanted for episode 200.Oh, and yes, we did ask her about Gemma Collins turning up at the DfE.

Can you truly protect your assets if a third party controls your data? The Global Circular Bitcoin Economy Summit in El Zonte just wrapped up, and the focus on the ground was centered entirely on the raw, unyielding mechanics of financial survival and digital sovereignty rather than price action or trading charts. This week, we are cutting straight through the fiat marketing noise to talk to the world-class builders who are physically constructing parallel, decentralized, un-surveillable systems right now.First, we sit down with Renata Rodrigues (@renatarodr) from Fedi to unpack why digital privacy is a complete necessity in an era of tightening global surveillance. Renata breaks down how the Fedi wallet and the open-source Fedimint protocol are giving localized communities the tools to completely break free from centralized platforms like Telegram or WhatsApp. We look directly into how combining encrypted chat with shared financial custody allows any group to establish its own autonomous federation. This gives sovereign individuals total control over what data they choose to reveal to the outside world, and we track exactly how these systems are scaling globally, from the closed-loop nodes defying bans in Indonesia to the intense intellectual proof of work required by communities in South Korea.Then, Daniel (@wph_merida) from Bitcoin Merida joins us to map out why true local adoption has to integrate with local geography, native culture, and the ultimate goal of absolute, off-grid self-sufficiency. Daniel pulls back the curtain on the massive legal and structural undertaking behind the INAH Citadel, which is a 230-acre intentional community built deep in the Mexican jungle of Yucatan, alongside their local urban hub, the White Paper House. We break down exactly how their team established a secure Fideicomiso trust structure to handle real estate transactions, how they are leveraging local tourism to empower nearby Mayan agricultural schools, and the wild story behind a massive private cenote that secures total water independence for the citadel.We cover a massive amount of ground in these conversations, including the deployment of private community wallets, zero-custody financial tools, the twelve-book entry requirement for Bitcoin South Korea, the legal architecture for buying property in Mexico, and integrating solar grids for alternative energy independence.If you are ready to stop waiting for permission, achieve true self-sufficiency, and learn how to build a resilient Bitcoin circular economy that can withstand state overreach, make sure to subscribe, leave a comment, and share this episode because your support helps us bring more of these underground stories to light.

Why are 85% to 90% of Catholic kids walking away from the Church as adults—and what are the rare 15% of successful families doing differently? In this episode of The Catholic Coaching Podcast, Matt sits down with Catholic psychologist, author, and EWTN radio host Dr. Greg Popcak to look at the groundbreaking research surrounding the "Liturgy of Domestic Church Life." If you've ever felt like your parenting is reduced to a "toolbox of manipulation techniques" to force external compliance, this conversation is the breath of fresh air you need. Dr. Greg breaks down how families can transition from behavior-focused parenting to a deeply relational, Trinitarian model that emphasizes warmth, mutual self-giving, and mentorship. We cover:

GMoney emerges from the Coffey Bunker after a month off to deliver a Bitcoin Pizza Day episode stacked with cypherpunk history and clown world updates. The main event is a conversation with Paul Rosenberg, the cypherpunk pioneer, longtime author, and builder of the Crypto Hippie VPN whose anonymously published novel A Lodging of Wayfaring Men reads like a prequel to the Bitcoin white paper. Paul walks through the three moments that shaped his libertarian worldview, his run-ins with retiring NSA fans of his products, why he ignored Bitcoin at first, and why he thinks the purity of the protocol is what guarantees the world cannot stay the same. After the interview, GMoney rifles through the week: Iran accepting Bitcoin for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, the Clarity Act clearing committee on 5/13, Kevin Warsh confirmed as the seventeenth Fed chair, Admiral Paparo confirming the US runs a Bitcoin node, the ARMA bill, and a closing argument that opting out of the tax system is the only vote that actually counts.

In this episode we are talking about the once-in-a-generation reckoning currently facing the British water industry. Following the publication of the final report from Sir Jon Cunliffe's Independent Water Commission last summer - and most recently the landmark January 2026 White Paper, "A New Vision for Water," the regulatory landscape across the sector is being completely redrawn. To discuss these changes and the implications for the supply chain, I am joined today by Chris Taylor-Dawson, Senior Director for Major Water Infrastructure at regulator Ofwat, someone who is, without question, at the heart of this transition. And there is certainly a huge amount for Chris to get across. To start with Ofwat itself will be reborn via a merger with the Drinking Water Inspectorate, and some functions of the Environment Agency and Natural England, to create a new single integrated regulator.And there is a huge amount of work to do on the ground following the latest AMP8 price review. Water companies are committed over the next five years to at least 30 major infrastructure projects, including perhaps nine new reservoirs, as part of a complex £50 billion pound major projects pipeline.And with Ofwat's recent Economic Impact of Water Supply Infrastructure report highlighting that continued water scarcity could significantly stifle economic growth, the urgency is certainly growing.Fortunately, Chris is a calm head when it comes to meeting this kind of challenge and brings a wealth of experience from his previous career delivering major projects for National Highways.I last spoke to him in November at the Transforming Infrastructure Performance Summit in London and it's fair to say the challenges have become clearer since then. ResourcesOfwat website Sir John Cunliffe Independent Commission final reportJanuary 2026 White Paper "A New Vision for Water" Ofwat's Economic Impact of Water Supply Infrastructure reportPR24 price reviewOfwat Major Water Infrastructure Programme (MWIP)RAPID (Regulators' Alliance for Progressing Infrastructure Development) programme Transforming Infrastructure Performance Summit London 2025

Geschätzte Lesedauer: 11 Minuten Hand aufs Herz: Wie viele Marketing-Kanäle hast du schon ausprobiert, ohne dass am Ende ein Kunde wirklich gesagt hat: „Ich habe das Gefühl, wir kennen uns schon"? Genau hier liegt die Stärke von einem Podcast für Unternehmen. Und das Beste daran ist: Du brauchst keine Million Downloads. Denn 50 Downloads pro Folge reichen oft schon aus, sofern du damit genau die richtigen Entscheider erreichst. In dieser VertriebsFunk-Episode spreche ich mit Florian Schartner, einem der renommiertesten Podcast-Experten im deutschsprachigen Raum. Er unterstützt mittelständische Unternehmen dabei, einen Unternehmenspodcast gezielt für Marketing und Vertrieb einzusetzen. Außerdem hat er meinen eigenen Podcast bei der Optimierung und Post-Production begleitet. Was du in dieser Folge lernst: Warum Audio-Content der direkteste Weg ins Ohr deines Kunden ist, wie du mit minimalem Aufwand startest – und weshalb ein Podcast für Unternehmen der unterschätzte Vertriebskanal für den Mittelstand ist. Warum ein Podcast für Unternehmen heute kein Nice-to-have mehr ist Du nutzt selbst Podcasts. Vermutlich hörst du sie beim Pendeln, beim Sport oder zwischendurch im Büro. Dabei holst du dir Inspiration, lernst etwas dazu und bildest dir eine Meinung. Genau das machen deine Kunden auch. Sie wollen sich weiterbilden. Außerdem wollen sie verstehen, was in ihrer Branche passiert. Und sie wollen wissen, mit wem sie es zu tun haben, bevor sie ein Erstgespräch buchen. Der entscheidende Punkt: Sobald ein potenzieller Kunde deinen Unternehmenspodcast hört, bist du wenige Zentimeter vom Gehirn entfernt. Du bist im Ohr. Dadurch erzeugst du Vertrauen, Sympathie und Expertise – alles auf einmal. Diese Wirkung erreichst du mit keinem anderen Medium so direkt. Denn weder ein Werbeplakat noch ein Mailing oder ein Reel auf LinkedIn schafft das. Die unterschätzte Vertrauensökonomie im B2B Im B2B-Vertrieb ist Vertrauen die Währung. Du kennst das selbst: Wenn zwei Anbieter dasselbe Produkt anbieten und einer ist dir sympathischer, gewinnt der mit dem besseren Bauchgefühl. Genau hier setzt ein Corporate Podcast Mittelstand an. Ein Hörer, der dir 30 Minuten zugehört hat, kennt nämlich deine Werte, deine Sprache und deine Haltung. Wenn ihr euch dann zum ersten Mal trefft, ist das Eis längst gebrochen. Google liebt jeden Podcast für Unternehmen Was viele unterschätzen: Suchmaschinen ranken Podcast-Inhalte überraschend hoch. Das heißt, falls dein potenzieller Kunde dich googelt, weil ihr einen Termin habt, ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit groß, dass deine Folgen ganz oben auftauchen. Was passiert dann? Der Kunde kommt vorbereitet ins Gespräch. Er sagt Sätze wie „Ich habe Ihren Podcast gehört, das war so spannend, da müssen wir uns unbedingt unterhalten." Genau das ist der Türöffner-Effekt, den kein klassischer Vertriebskanal so liefert. 50 Downloads reichen: Warum dein Podcast für Unternehmen Relevanz vor Reichweite stellt Vergiss große Charts. Vergiss Top-100-Platzierungen. Sobald du einen Unternehmenspodcast als Vertriebsinstrument nutzt, reden wir nicht über Reichweite, sondern über Relevanz. Bereits 50, 500 oder 1.000 Downloads pro Folge können ausreichen, sofern es die richtigen Hörer sind. Ein Beispiel aus der Praxis: Florian betreut einen Firmen-Podcast aus dem Bereich Maschinenbau und Automatisation. Hardcore-Nische, sehr nerdig. Eine Folge dauert 50 Minuten. Trotzdem werden die Episoden gefeiert – mit rund 600 Aufrufen pro Folge. Warum? Weil die Hörer einen echten Bedarf für das Thema haben. Sie wollen genau das wissen, was dort besprochen wird. Genau darin liegt die Magie des Mediums: Du sprichst nicht zur breiten Masse, sondern direkt zu deinem Wunschkunden. Die Mathematik hinter dem Podcast für Unternehmen ist simpel Stell dir vor, du betreust 50 Schlüsselkunden. Davon hören 30 regelmäßig deinen Unternehmenspodcast. Du erscheinst alle zwei Wochen für 30 bis 60 Minuten in ihrem Ohr. Über ein Jahr summiert sich das pro Hörer auf 12 bis 24 Stunden Aufmerksamkeit. Ehrlich: Welche andere Marketingmaßnahme generiert 12 Stunden ungestörte Aufmerksamkeit bei deinem Wunschkunden? Keine. Genau deshalb funktioniert ein Podcast für Unternehmen so kraftvoll im B2B-Vertrieb. Der Aufwand für deinen Unternehmenspodcast: Viel weniger als du denkst „Ich habe doch keine Zeit dafür" – das ist der häufigste Einwand. Und er ist falsch. Schau dir mal an, wie viel Zeit du täglich auf dem Handy verbringst. Wie viele Stunden pro Woche fließen in Netflix, YouTube oder Social Media? Eine Folge pro Woche bedeutet maximal acht Stunden Aufwand pro Monat. Das ist weniger als ein einziger Tagesausflug zum Kunden von Frankfurt nach München. Die Grundsatzentscheidung steht am Anfang Sobald du dich entscheidest, dass du das wirklich willst, findest du auch eine Lösung. Die Technik ist heute so weit, dass du in zwei Tagen einen Podcast für Unternehmen launchen kannst. Wirklich. Denn die Hürde sitzt nicht im Equipment, sondern im Kopf. Bei dem Gedanken: „Ich muss mich da hinsetzen, ich muss perfekt sein, ich muss alles richtig machen." Vergiss das. Die ersten fünf Folgen sind selten gut. Das ist normal. Außerdem wirst du besser, je mehr du machst – wie beim Laufen oder Fahrradfahren. Das technische Setup für deinen Firmen-Podcast: Quick & Dirty oder Profi? Du brauchst nicht viel. Wirklich nicht. Hier sind die Basics, die ein guter Corporate Podcast oder ein VertriebsFunk-Setup ausmachen: Mikrofon und Software für deinen Podcast für Unternehmen Ein gutes USB-Mikrofon ab 100 Euro reicht aus, um qualitativ guten Sound zu produzieren. Modelle wie das Rode NT-USB oder das Shure MV7 Plus liefern Studio-Qualität für den Heim-Schreibtisch. Software wie Riverside, Squadcast oder einfach Zoom funktionieren für Remote-Aufnahmen. Wichtig ist nur eins: Kopfhörer aufsetzen, Soundcheck machen, übersteuern vermeiden. Schnitt und Bearbeitung Du brauchst kaum zu schneiden. Audacity ist kostenlos, während Adobe Podcast kostenlose KI-Audio-Enhancement-Tools bietet. Wichtig dabei: Schneide nicht zu viel raus. Denn Pausen, Atmer und kleine „Ähms" gehören zur Authentizität. Wenn du jeden Hauch wegschneidest, klingt das künstlich – und das spüren die Hörer sofort. Hosting und Verbreitung Spotify for Creators bietet kostenloses Podcast-Hosting an. Von dort verteilst du auf Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts und alle anderen Plattformen. Per RSS-Feed kannst du den Podcast für Unternehmen sogar automatisch auf YouTube ausspielen lassen. Das ist heute alles ein Klick. B2B Podcast starten: Welche Formate wirklich funktionieren Falls du einen B2B Podcast starten willst, ist die Themenfindung oft die größte Hürde. Mein Rat: Mach es dir leicht. Hier sind die Formate, die im Mittelstand zuverlässig funktionieren: Das Kundeninterview als Königsdisziplin im Unternehmenspodcast Das ist mein absoluter Favorit. Du lädst einen zufriedenen Kunden ein und stellst ihm drei Fragen: Wie war deine Situation vor unserer Zusammenarbeit? Warum hast du dich für uns entschieden? Wie ist deine Situation heute? Daraus entsteht ein 30-minütiges Gespräch, das gleich vier Effekte erzielt: Erstens hast du ein gigantisches Testimonial. Zweitens hat dein Kunde sich öffentlich zu dir bekannt – die Loyalität steigt dadurch messbar. Drittens hören andere Kunden das und denken: „Wenn der zufrieden ist, lohnt sich das wohl." Viertens erreichst du genau die Lookalikes deines Kunden. Wer ähnliche Probleme hat, klickt sofort auf die Folge. Das CEO-Interview im Corporate Podcast Mittelstand Wo kommt die Firma her? Warum machen wir das alles? Welche Werte treiben uns an? Gerade mit dem Generationenwechsel im Mittelstand – die Boomer gehen in Rente, während die nächste Generation übernimmt – sind solche Folgen Gold wert. Sie konservieren die Legacy. Außerdem geben sie Mitarbeitern und Kunden ein Gesicht. Und sie schaffen eine emotionale Bindung, die kein Mission Statement auf der Website jemals leisten könnte. Experten- und interne Interviews Hol deine Vertriebsleiter, deine Ingenieure und deine Spezialisten ans Mikro. Lass sie über das sprechen, was sie täglich tun. Im Maschinenbau? Lass zwei Ingenieure über aktuelle Werkzeugentwicklung reden – ohne die Firma zu pitchen. HubSpot macht das mit „Marketing Against the Grain" vor: Zwei Nerds reden über KI, ohne ein einziges Mal über HubSpot selbst zu sprechen. Genau das ist gutes Content-Marketing. How-to-Folgen und Einwände entkräften Frag deinen Vertrieb: Was sind die Standard-Einwände, die du jeden Tag hörst? Daraus entstehen 20 Folgen in einem Workshop-Nachmittag. Jede Einwandbehandlung wird zu einer eigenen Episode. Auch jedes neue Produkt ergibt eine eigene Episode. Jede Messe, jede Veranstaltung und jeder Trend liefert Stoff – Themen findest du also zuhauf, sobald du einmal warm bist. Der größte Fehler beim Podcast für Unternehmen: Pitchen statt liefern Ein Unternehmenspodcast ist kein klassischer Werbekanal. Du musst nicht dreimal pro Folge dein Produkt einfügen. Bitte keine Jingles mit „Jetzt kaufen". Das wirkt sogar kontraproduktiv. Denn Hörer merken sofort, wenn du verkaufen willst – und schalten ab. Die richtige Haltung lautet: Liefere Mehrwert. Erzähl Geschichten. Stell kritische Fragen. Bring Persönlichkeit rein. Sobald du als Manager, Geschäftsführer oder Vertriebsleiter offen über deine Erfahrungen sprichst, wird daraus automatisch das beste Marketing, das du je gemacht hast. Du musst nichts verkaufen. Denn du bist die Werbung – allein durch das, was du sagst und wie du es sagst. Konstanz schlägt Perfektion bei jedem Firmen-Podcast Achtzig Prozent aller Podcasts scheitern nach fünf bis sechs Folgen. Das ist die berüchtigte Statistik. Wer es über die ersten zehn Folgen hinausschafft, ist schon weiter als die meisten. Mein Rat aus der Praxis: Produziere am Anfang 15 bis 20 Folgen am Stück. Innerhalb eines Monats. Drei Viertel davon intern, ein Viertel mit Kunden oder externen Experten. Dann hast du Vorrat. Anschließend veröffentlichst du alle ein bis zwei Wochen eine Folge. Außerdem hast du Ruhe, falls mal Urlaub, Krankheit oder ein voller Terminkalender dazwischenkommt. Der Druck der wöchentlichen Veröffentlichung ist real. Wenn dein Kalender bereits voll ist, brauchst du einen Puffer. Sonst gibst du nach drei Monaten auf. Und das wäre schade, weil sich der Effekt eines Podcasts oft erst nach 50 oder 100 Folgen vollständig entfaltet. Mehrfachverwertung: Eine Folge, zehn Inhalte Hier liegt der wahre Hebel. Aus einer einzigen Folge entsteht mit modernen KI-Tools ein ganzes Content-Universum: Aus dem Transkript machst du Blogartikel wie diesen hier. Außerdem entstehen daraus mehrere LinkedIn-Posts. Das Geile dabei: Da steht dein echter Wortlaut drin, nicht der typische KI-Schreibstil mit Ein-Wort-Sätzen. Auch Lead-Magnete und White Papers leitest du ab. Genauso entstehen Mini-Landingpages zu Spezialthemen. Kurze Reels und Shorts wandern auf TikTok, Instagram und YouTube. Ein Newsletter wird daraus. Sogar Sales-Enablement-Material für deinen Vertrieb fällt nebenbei ab. Florian erzählt von einem Kunden, der seine Podcast-basierten LinkedIn-Posts alle sechs Monate erneut veröffentlicht. Seit drei Jahren. Die Posts performen jedes Mal aufs Neue. Denn niemand erinnert sich, was du vor sechs Monaten gepostet hast. Evergreen-Content in Reinform. Das Wichtigste: Buy-in von oben und Vorbereitung Bevor du loslegst, hol dir das Buy-in der Geschäftsführung. Mach keine U-Boot-Aktionen. Bei über 1.000 produzierten Folgen hatten wir nur einen einzigen Fall, in dem ein Chef im Nachhinein eine Folge gelöscht haben wollte – aber das Risiko gibt es trotzdem. Pitch deinen Podcast für Unternehmen intern: Wenig Aufwand, hoher Gain, langfristige Wirkung, deutlich nachhaltiger als jede Messe oder jedes Mailing. Und ein letzter, ehrlicher Tipp: Hol dir am Anfang einen Experten dazu. Jemanden wie Florian, der das Setup macht, dich technisch begleitet, bei der Themenfindung hilft und die Post-Production übernimmt. Sobald das Ding läuft, kannst du es selber stemmen oder weiter outsourcen. Allerdings verhindert der Start mit Profi-Begleitung die typischen Anfängerfehler. Außerdem verhindert er, dass du nach drei Monaten frustriert sagst: „Podcast funktioniert für uns nicht." Quick Takeaways: Das musst du dir merken 50 Downloads pro Folge reichen aus, sofern es die richtigen Hörer sind. Reichweite ist nicht das Ziel – Relevanz ist es. Maximal 8 Stunden Aufwand pro Monat für eine Folge pro Woche. Weniger als ein einziger Außendiensttag. Technik ist heute kein Hinderungsgrund mehr – ein USB-Mikro für 100 Euro plus kostenlose Software reichen für den Start. Kundeninterviews sind das Top-Format für jeden Unternehmenspodcast: Testimonial, Bindung, Lookalike-Reichweite und Vertrauen in einem. Niemals pitchen – wer im Corporate Podcast verkaufen will, verliert die Hörer in Sekunden. Konstanz schlägt Perfektion: 80 Prozent scheitern an Folge 5. Wer durchhält, gewinnt automatisch. Mehrfachverwertung ist der größte Hebel: Eine Folge wird zu Blog, LinkedIn, Newsletter, Reel, White Paper. Fazit: Dein Podcast für Unternehmen ist dein bester Vertriebler Ein Podcast für Unternehmen ist kein Marketing-Spielzeug. Er ist ein strategisches Vertriebsinstrument, das im deutschen Mittelstand massiv unterschätzt wird. Du erreichst deine Wunschkunden direkt im Ohr. Außerdem baust du Vertrauen auf, bevor das erste Gespräch überhaupt stattfindet. Du etablierst dich als Experte deiner Branche. Und du machst Mehrfachverwertung möglich, die kein anderes Format dir bietet. Der Mittelstand wartet noch zu oft, bis die Konkurrenz vorgelegt hat. Genau das ist deine Chance. Während andere noch über Messen und klassische Werbung diskutieren, sitzt du bereits im Ohr deiner Zielkunden. Wenn du Florian und mich also fragst: Es gibt kaum einen Hebel im B2B-Vertrieb, der so wenig Aufwand bei so großer Langzeitwirkung bringt wie ein gut gemachter Unternehmenspodcast. Mein Tipp: Nimm dir 30 Minuten, mach eine Liste mit deinen ersten zehn potenziellen Folgen, ruf einen zufriedenen Kunden an und buche dir ein Erstgespräch mit jemandem wie Florian – oder mit mir, falls du einen Sparringspartner für die Vertriebs-Strategie dahinter brauchst. Was du auf gar keinen Fall machen solltest: warten. Denn jeder Monat ohne Podcast ist ein Monat, in dem deine Wettbewerber die Chance haben, vorher im Ohr deiner Wunschkunden zu landen. FAQ zum Podcast für Unternehmen Wie viele Downloads braucht ein erfolgreicher Corporate Podcast Mittelstand? Im B2B reichen oft schon 50 bis 1.000 Downloads pro Folge aus, sofern du damit genau deine Wunschkunden erreichst. Reichweite ist nicht das Ziel – Relevanz ist es. Ein nischiger Maschinenbau-Unternehmenspodcast mit 600 Hörern pro Folge kann für deinen Vertrieb wertvoller sein als ein Mainstream-Format mit 50.000 Hörern, die nicht zu dir passen. Wie viel Zeit muss ich für einen Podcast für Unternehmen einplanen? Für eine Folge pro Woche solltest du maximal acht Stunden Aufwand pro Monat einplanen. Das ist weniger Zeit, als du für einen einzigen Außendiensttag aufwendest. Mit einem Profi-Partner für Schnitt und Post-Production reduziert sich dein eigener Aufwand auf das reine Aufnehmen. Welches Format funktioniert am besten, wenn ich einen B2B Podcast starten will? Kundeninterviews sind das absolute Top-Format. Du gewinnst gleichzeitig ein Testimonial, stärkst die Kundenbindung und sprichst die Lookalikes deines Kunden an. Daneben funktionieren CEO-Interviews zur Unternehmensgeschichte, Experteninterviews mit eigenen Mitarbeitern und How-to-Folgen, in denen du typische Einwände aus deiner Branche entkräftest. Welche Technik brauche ich, um einen Podcast für Unternehmen zu starten? Ein USB-Mikrofon ab 100 Euro (Rode NT-USB oder Shure MV7 Plus), eine kostenlose Recording-Software wie Riverside oder Zoom und ein Schnittprogramm wie Audacity oder Adobe Podcast genügen. Spotify for Creators hostet deinen Unternehmenspodcast kostenlos und verteilt ihn auf alle relevanten Plattformen inklusive Apple Podcasts. Soll ich im Podcast für Unternehmen meine Produkte oder Dienstleistungen pitchen? Auf keinen Fall. Klassisches Pitchen ist im Corporate Podcast kontraproduktiv und vertreibt dir die Hörer. Stattdessen lieferst du Mehrwert, erzählst Geschichten und zeigst Expertise. Der Verkauf passiert automatisch, weil Hörer dich als Experten wahrnehmen und Vertrauen aufbauen, bevor das erste Gespräch überhaupt stattgefunden hat. Anleitung: In 7 Schritten zu deinem Podcast für Unternehmen So startest du strukturiert und ohne Frust deinen eigenen Unternehmenspodcast – auch ohne technisches Vorwissen. Buy-in von der Geschäftsführung holen Pitch den Podcast für Unternehmen intern: wenig Aufwand, hoher Gain, langfristige Wirkung. Vermeide U-Boot-Aktionen und kläre Verantwortlichkeiten. Themen und Format definieren Sammle in einem Workshop 20 bis 30 Themen. Wähle ein Hauptformat (Interview, Solo, Mischung) und definiere deinen thematischen Nordstern. Technisches Setup einrichten USB-Mikrofon ab 100 Euro besorgen, Recording-Software (Riverside, Zoom) einrichten, Hosting bei Spotify for Creators registrieren. Erste 15 bis 20 Folgen vorproduzieren Nimm in einem Monat einen Stapel Folgen auf. Drei Viertel intern, ein Viertel mit Kunden oder Experten. So hast du Vorrat für die ersten Monate. Veröffentlichungsrhythmus festlegen Veröffentliche alle ein bis zwei Wochen eine Folge. Konstanz schlägt Perfektion. Plane mit Buffer oder ähnlichen Tools im Voraus. Mehrfachverwertung systematisieren Aus jeder Folge entstehen Blogartikel, LinkedIn-Posts, Newsletter, Reels und White Papers. Plane diesen Recycling-Prozess von Anfang an mit. Kontinuierlich optimieren und Feedback einholen Hör nach 10 Folgen rein, frag Kunden nach ihrer Meinung, optimiere Tonqualität und Themen. Die ersten Folgen sind nie perfekt – das ist normal. Deine Meinung ist gefragt Hast du selbst schon mit einem Podcast für dein Unternehmen experimentiert – oder schreckt dich der Aufwand noch ab? Was ist deine größte Hürde: die Technik, die Themenfindung oder einfach die Konstanz? Schreib mir auf LinkedIn und teile diesen Beitrag gerne, sobald er dir weitergeholfen hat. Ich freue mich auf deine Geschichte aus der Praxis.

Good Sunday to you,It seems Iran is planning to turn the Strait of Hormuz into the marine equivalent a toll road, or so at least the Financial Times among others is reporting. Ships wishing to pass through the strait must pay a fee of $1 per barrel of oil.Here's the clincher: the fee must be paid in bitcoin.Why bitcoin? It's the best money for the job.As it is “permissionless”, no government can order the funds to be frozen or seized. No bank can block the transaction. There is no intermediary. It is outside geopolitical control. Transactions can be made remotely and digitally. Settlement is within minutes. Ownership is clear. The network is sufficiently liquid.No other widely used currency or payment system in existence has these qualities. Not the dollar, not the euro, not gold or silver, not stablecoins.Suddenly bitcoin has become “a tool to navigate a global conflict', in the words of bitcoiner Jesse Tevelow.A particular company might not like Iran. Iran might not like the company. Neither might trust the other. The two can still transact. Trade can happen between parties that don't like or trust each other. Trade can also happen outside of politics.Every bitcoiner has known for some time such a moment was coming. It was just a matter of when. If this is enforced, it would mark the first real-world use of bitcoin as neutral settlement infrastructure in a live geopolitical conflict, where traditional systems cannot operate.Obviously this only works if Iran can enforce it, and the Strait is not only Iran's. This is currently only a contingency situation and, if this conflict ends, habits may quickly revert.There is the other possibility that it does work. Indeed it works so well other nations start copying.The BRICS nations, for example, might find bitcoin an extremely useful non-US-dollar currency in which to transact.In which case, this sets a precedent.My view: the world just changed.At the other end of the scale, we have my little lifeAnd the same problem - fiat inadequacy - presents itself though rather more mundane circumstances.I've been travelling through Namibia this past fortnight, on my way to give a speech at the Cirrus Investment Conference.When I arrived at the airport, I couldn't get my card to work in the ATM machine, but I had £200 in cash which I changed - no doubt at some over-priced rate - for local dollars. This was the only cash I had.I've been staying at various lodges across the country, all in the middle of nowhere, and I have had a terrific time, but I've needed money to tip my various guides, lodge staff, drivers and so on, but with no access to cash.The banking system didn't work. The card failed. Cash was finite. The people I wanted to tip couldn't take card payments. We still wanted to transact.So I've been using the opportunity to orange pill the locals. Instead of local dollars (which by the way is pegged to the South African rand), I've got every member of staff to download a wallet onto their phone, and I've tipped them in bitcoin. Everyone so far has been delighted at the arrangement, and the locals now have some money that might appreciate in purchasing power. I've told them to HODL their coins for at least 5 years and then perhaps this little tip might be worth something.In the meantime I've told them to read up on bitcoin - watch vids, listen to podcasts and so on.As I argue in the book the first step on the bitcoin journey is to download a wallet and practice sending and receiving small amounts of money.So you have the same function at two extremes: bitcoin works where other forms of money fall short.Once again I urge you to have some exposure to this extraordinary tech. ETFs are the simplest way - but they are far from permissionless, as anyone dealing with the FCA will tell you. Charlie Morris's BOLD is another option and one I some in my own portfolio.On which note, I heartily endorse Charlie's various newsletters, which you can read here. But the best way to start with bitcoin is to sign up to an exchange and buy twenty quid's worth.Here's a little story for you.About ten years ago, around the time I wrote Bitcoin: the Future of Money?, I was at the Port Eliot festival in Cornwall where the internet signal is bad, or was back then. “Accepting bitcoin” it said on one of the little cafe vans. “What's bitcoin?” a mate standing next to me in the queue said. I told him, sent him a fiver's worth and told him to use it to buy us each a coffee.The bloke selling the coffee couldn't get a proper signal on his phone, other people in the queue were getting impatient and so my mate paid in cash and we both forgot about the bitcoins.Several years later when bitcoin went on one its runs my mate messaged me. “Hey, you remember those bitcoins? Well I got out my old phone, retrieved the wallet, sold them and bought myself a car.”It wasn't a Ferrari or anything like that. Just some second-hand family motor, but even so quite the gain.I doubt those tips will get the Namibian locals a car, but you never know.Why Adam Back is not Satoshi NakamotoFinally, there was a big story in the New York Times this week arguing that cypherpunk coder Adam Back is Satoshi Nakamoto. Author John Carreyrou spent over a year on the story, but I'm afraid - and I've been there - he suffers from a terrible case of Prosecutor's Bias. He has decided who he thinks Satoshi is and then found coincidence after to fits the story.If you've read the book, you'll know Adam Back was a prime candidate, but one that was easy to discount, because he wrote in a different coding language - C - to Satoshi, who wrote in C++. Indeed, Satoshi came to Back for advice on the White Paper, which Back gave him (you can read the email correspondence). Meanwhile, Back then only came to bitcoin relatively late, in 2013 - and set up Blockstream almost as a catch-up play, which he wouldn't have bothered doing if he was Satoshi who at this point was worth a 9-figure sum.I wrote a thread on X about it, retweeted by Adam Back himself - so it may be of some interest.Here is this week's commentary:Thanks for being a subscriber to the Flying Frisby.Until next time,DominicPS Bitcoin: the Future of Money? is available at Amazon and all good bookshops.

The grant landscape is shifting quickly — and economic developers need to be ready. In this episode of Develop This!, Dennis Fraise sits down with Adrian Spencer, founder of Grant Guru, to explore what's ahead for grants, funding, and economic development in 2026. Federal policy changes are reshaping funding opportunities, including a shift away from centralized systems like Grants.gov toward department-specific platforms. At the same time, economic developers are facing increased pressure to secure funding with fewer resources. Adrian shares how communities can adapt by diversifying funding sources, strengthening partnerships, and embracing new tools like AI while maintaining strong oversight and strategy. The conversation also explores emerging trends, including state-level grant initiatives, community collaboration, and the growing role of faith-based organizations in addressing economic and social challenges. Finally, Dennis and Adrian discuss why impact assessment is becoming essential for winning grants and how economic developers can better demonstrate the value of their projects to funders. If your community relies on grants to fund growth, infrastructure, or workforce initiatives, this episode offers practical insight into how to stay competitive in the evolving funding landscape.
