Podcasts about Workflow

"The More You Know" - Robin Deal A million-gallon-a-day perspective, distilled into actionable steps. Robin Deal, AquaPure Product Manager at Hubbard-Hall unpacks how seasoned pros can squeeze more performance—and less sludge—out of industrial wastewater systems without compromising compliance or plant uptime.    From "clear water in a jar" to stable discharge in the field  Robin details a practical jar-testing workflow: start from upstream processes, target pH using hydroxide/sulfide solubility curves, choose the right coagulant (aluminum, iron, calcium, lanthanum, or organics), and validate against metals/COD/BOD/phosphorus before scaling. The test bench isn't the finish line; it's the feasibility gate when you're treating 150,000+ gpd.  Lean wastewater: cost center or controllable system?  Commodity choices (lime, alum, ferric) can generate 70–85% more sludge than optimized blends—driving hazardous waste hauling, clogging lines, and shortening pump life. Robin reframes the "penny-per-pound" price war into a total-system economics conversation: sludge recyclability, maintenance cycles, and realistic break-even targets.  PFAS: remove now, plan to destroy  For hex-chrome platers and other industrial dischargers, Robin shares near-term and emerging options: carbon filtration for immediate removal, evaporation/condensation where capital exists, and destruction pathways under evaluation—advanced oxidation, electrochemical oxidation, "thermobotic agglomeration," and ball milling—with an eye on evolving limits and cost realities.  One Water thinking for manufacturers  "Water is water." Robin introduces the One Water mindset for plant leaders: tighten internal loops, reduce community draw and discharge impact, and align non-contact, potable, and wastewater under one stewardship model. It's not a club—it's a decision framework that's already influencing global brands and drought-stressed regions.  Treat each round of testing as a hypothesis check, each chemical as a system lever, and each gallon as a shared resource. That's how leaders turn compliance into predictable results. Stay engaged, keep learning, and continue scaling up your knowledge!    Timestamps  16:45 - Trace Blackmore shares insights on current industry events, an upcoming conference, the "magic button" idea for user-friendly wastewater control and announces The Hang to build community engagement 17:50 - Water You Know with James McDonald  23:04 - Interview begins: Robin Deal introduced as AquaPure Product Manager, origin story and family context   28:12 - First Jar Test Story   32:17 - Jar testing Workflow  42:34 - One Water concept  54:12 - Regulations   Quotes  "Just say yes to the job."

Our recent interview was all about measurements. The Wooster Community Hospital Health System in Wayne County, Ohio achieved a 20% improvement in their nurses' satisfaction with their MEDITECH EHR after a six-month effort. This video, interviewing Eric Gasser, Vice President of Information Systems and CIO, shows how statistics and survey data made that achievement possible.Gasser says that Wooster offers high quality care and has won awards. Yet, always interested in doing better, they took up a suggestion by MEDITECH to join the KLAS Arch Collaborative. As part of that collaborative, they surveyed their clinicians. Although they were mostly happy with their jobs, nurses found documentation to be a burden.Learn more about Wooster: https://www.woosterhospital.org/Learn more about MEDITECH: https://ehr.meditech.com/Healthcare IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

If your product strategy stops at the download, you're leaving impact—and revenue—on the table. In this conversation, I sit down with Ghazenfer Mansoor, CEO & founder of Technology Rivers, to talk about building software that actually gets used, loved, and shared. Ghazenfer has been in mobile since the pre-iPhone days and has led the build of nearly 60 apps, primarily in healthcare. We explore ideas from his forthcoming book, Beyond the Download, including why retention beats acquisition, when a mobile app truly makes sense (and when a web experience is smarter), and how AI-driven, proprietary workflows can become a company's real moat. We also step into leadership, including what it takes to fix “broken” projects, the values that guide his global remote team (transparency, fairness, and getting things done), and why peer networks and coaching matter for founders. It's a practical, fast-moving chat for leaders who want their technology to create efficiency, differentiation, and long-term value. Here are some highlights: -Retention over acquisition: Ghazenfer shares practical ways to design for daily use and bring people back because downloads without engagement aren't success. -“Do you really need an app?”: We unpack decision criteria for native vs. web, and why solving a real, repeat problem is the first gate before writing any code. -Workflow is the moat: How codifying proprietary processes, especially in healthcare and HIPAA-sensitive environments, creates efficiency, margin, and higher valuations. -Fixing broken projects: Common failure patterns (from feature chasing to UX missteps) and how to course-correct so you “build it right the first time.” -Leading a global team: The operating system behind Technology Rivers; clear KPIs, remote-first communication, fairness, and a growing commitment to women in tech. Plus the role of EO/Vistage-style peer groups and coaching for tough decisions. About the guest:  Ghazenfer Mansoor is the founder and CEO of Technology Rivers, a Washington, D.C.–area software firm specializing in HIPAA-compliant healthcare SaaS and mobile apps. A mobile veteran since the pre-iPhone era, he has led the build of 59+ apps and numerous AI-powered workflow platforms that help service businesses scale, boost margins, and increase valuation. Known for “building it right the first time,” Ghazenfer is frequently tapped to rescue broken software projects. He's the author of the forthcoming book Beyond the Download: How to Build Mobile Apps That People Love, Use, and Share Every Day and host of the podcast Lessons from the Leap.

What if your mainframe could talk back and guide the fix? I spoke to Liat Sokolov, Product Manager for AI solutions and an AI Evangelist at BMC Software. We explored how teams move from manuals and dashboards to real conversations with the platform. Liat breaks down why “guided resolution” beats “just answers” by giving the next right step in context, cutting time to recovery and reducing errors.We dug into the GenAI knowledge expert that keeps hard-won expertise in house as veterans retire. It becomes a coach for new developers and operators, helping them ramp faster and avoid costly mistakes.We also separated conversational AI from AI Agents and showed why enterprises need both. Picture agents coordinating across dev, ops, and cloud to roll out a change with checks, traceability, and rollback. That is how you modernize with confidence. Liat also explained why the mainframe can be the most explainable platform in the AI era, which matters for trust and safety.We finished with a practical path forward. Start with one high-value workflow, capture the expert playbook, pilot a conversational assistant with guardrails, then add agents as you prove value.If you care about making the mainframe simpler, safer, and faster, this interview is worth your time.#data #ai #mainframe #bmc #theravitshow

Microsoft recently launched Dragon Copilot, a next-generation AI clinical assistant designed to transform how clinicians manage time-consuming administrative tasks - from documentation and referrals to after-visit summaries. By streamlining workflows and integrating seamlessly with electronic patient records (EPRs), it frees up valuable time for what matters most: patient care.The technology combines fine-tuned generative AI with Dragon Medical One's speech capabilities and the ambient AI of Dragon Ambient eXperience (DAX). It comes at a time when a Microsoft-commissioned report revealed that 40% of patients have experienced consultations where clinicians appeared too focused on their screens to fully engage. To find out more about Dragon Copilot I spoke to Dr Simon Wallace, Chief Clinical Information Officer at Microsoft UK and Ireland.Dr Wallace talks about his background, what Dragon Copilot does, the benefits of using Dragon Copilot and more.More about Dr Simon Wallace:Dr Simon Wallace is a medical doctor specialising in GP, hospital, and public health care with over 20 years of experience in healthcare transformation. He currently serves as the Chief Medical Information Officer (CMIO) and Director of Business Strategy for Microsoft UK & Ireland, where he leads the integration of health-tech innovations—especially AI and conversational systems—into clinical workflows.

Send us a textIf your pathology reports and other data could talk, what would they say about the future of precision medicine? The truth is, most labs already have the data—they're just not having a conversation with it.In this episode, I talk with Peter O'Toole, President and Chief Software Architect at mTuitive. We recorded live at Pathology Visions and are covering the power of structured data and how it's redefining the future of pathology reporting, AI, and clinical decision support.We explore how structured reporting evolved from checklists to intelligence, why data hygiene and workflow integration matter more than AI buzzwords, and how collaboration across companies like mTuitive is helping labs turn their reports into clinically actionable data.Highlights with Timestamps[00:00–05:40] Data as the new currency in pathology — Why structured data is the foundation for clinical, research, and trial insights.[05:40–10:30] AI & Large Language Models (LLMs) — What AI can (and can't) do when your data isn't structured.[10:30–19:25] AI workflow integration & voice recognition — How AI and structured reporting work together inside the LIS and IMS.[19:25–25:27] Overcoming resistance — Why pathologists initially resisted structured reports and how perceptions are shifting globally.[25:27–29:53] Decision support & beyond cancer — Expanding structured data to liver, skin, and even mental health pathology.[29:53–34:15] Collaboration as the catalyst — How partnerships create seamless ecosystems for pathology data.[34:15–37:03] Demo: Synoptic reporting in action — Real-time staging, automation, and compliance made easy.Resources from this EpisodemTuitive website: https://mtuitive.comCAP Synoptic Reporting Protocols – Standardized templates for structured pathology reports.Pathology Visions Conference 2025 – Event where this discussion took place.Key Takeaways✅ Structured reporting transforms pathology data from static text into actionable intelligence.✅ AI and LLMs complement structured data—but can't replace its clinical readiness.✅ Clean data in = clean data out—data hygiene defines AI reliability and efficiency.✅ Workflow integration and user-friendly design drive real-world adoption.✅ Structured data unlocks clinical trials access, research potential, and decision support tools.✅ Collaboration is key to building the connected ecosystem pathology needs.Support the showGet the "Digital Pathology 101" FREE E-book and join us!

Duri Bonin hat Patrick Arnecke zu sich in den Podcast eingeladen, weil ich verstehen will, wie KI im realen Workflow hilft. Daraus ist die Serie «Back to the Future» entstanden: eine ruhige Bestandesaufnahme nach dem Hype – was heute schon funktioniert und wie man es sauber in die Praxis bringt. In dieser Folge geht es um semantische Suche. Ausgangslage: In der Verwaltung liegen Millionen von Dokumenten. Wer die relevanten Dokumente schneller findet, kann sich länger und besser der eigentlichen Arbeit widmen. Patrick erklärt, wie Machine-Learning-Modelle Texte inhaltlich verorten (Embedding-Raum) und wie daraus eine hybride Suche entsteht – lexikalisch und semantisch. Konkret zeigt er das am Staatsarchiv-Projekt: eine intelligente Suche über historische Bestände aus zwei Jahrhunderten (u. a. Kantonsratsprotokolle, Regierungsratsbeschlüsse, Gesetzessammlungen). Warum das wichtig ist? Weil sich Begriffe ändern – semantische Suche findet relevante Dokumente auch dann, wenn die Terminologie von damals nicht bekannt ist. Patrick zeigt zudem, wie man Qualität prüft: mit Testdaten, gezielten Schlüsselbegriffen und realen Suchaufgaben. Und er erklärt, weshalb 100 % Perfektion weder möglich noch nötig ist, solange Ergebnisse praxistauglich sind. Weiter erklärt er, wie die Technik trainiert wird, wo Grenzen liegen und warum der Nutzen durch Einführung und Schulung entsteht: Viele sind an strenge Stichwortmasken gewöhnt; semantische Suche eröffnet neue Muster – bis hin zur Ähnlichkeitssuche mit ganzen Dokumenten. Auch die Infrastrukturfrage kommt zur Sprache: Öffentliche Daten dürfen in die Cloud, vertrauliche und geheime Daten laufen auf Servern des Kantons. Die Kosten bleiben für Suchlösungen überschaubar. Wichtig ist die Skalierung: Ein Pilot für einige Hundert Nutzende ist etwas anderes als ein Betriebsprodukt für 35'000 Mitarbeitende – genau dort setzt Patricks Team an. Die Folge zeigt: Semantische Suche ist kein Hype-Feature, sondern ein Arbeitsinstrument, das bleibt. Sie spart Zeit, erhöht die Trefferqualität und macht historische wie aktuelle Open-Data-Bestände noch einmal ganz anders nutzbar. Gleichzeitig gilt weiterhin Patricks Prinzip: Problem vor Tool, klein starten, Wirkung messen, reversibel bleiben und das ausrollen, was im Alltag trägt. In der nächsten Folge möchte Duri mit ihm über Audiotranskription sprechen. Für wen ist diese Folge spannend? Für alle, die mit grossen Textmengen arbeiten – Verwaltung, Justiz, Bildung, Medien, KMU – und wissen wollen, wie man semantische Suche einführt, bewertet und skalierbar macht.

Building B2B analytics and AI tools that people will actually pay for and use is hard. The reality is, your product won't deliver ROI if no one's using it. That's why first principles thinking says you have to solve the usage problem first. In this episode, I'll explain why the key to user adoption is designing with the flow of work—building your solution around the natural workflows of your users to minimize the behavior changes you're asking them to make. When users clearly see the value in your product, it becomes easier to sell and removes many product-related blockers along the way. We'll explore how product design impacts sales, the difference between buyers and users in enterprise contexts, and why challenging the “data/AI-first” mindset is essential. I'll also share practical ways to align features with user needs, reduce friction, and drive long-term adoption and impact. If you're ready to move beyond the dashboard and start building products that truly fit the way people work, this episode is for you.   Highlights/Skip to:  The core argument: why solving for user adoption first helps demonstrate ROI and facilitate sales in B2B analytics and AI products  (1:34) How showing the value to actual end users—not just buyers—makes it easier to sell your product (2:33) Why designing for outcomes instead of outputs (dashboards, etc) leads to better adoption and long-term product value (8:16) How to “see” beyond users' surface-level feature requests and solutions so you can solve for the actual, unspoken need—leading to an indispensable product (10:23) Reframing feature requests as design-actionable problems (12:07)  Solving for unspoken needs vs. customer-requested features and functions (15:51) Why “disruption” is the wrong approach for product development (21:19)   Quotes:  “Customers' tolerance for poorly designed B2B software has decreased significantly over the last decade. People now expect enterprise tools to function as smoothly and intuitively as the consumer apps they use every day.  Clunky software that slows down workflows is no longer acceptable, regardless of the data it provides. If your product frustrates users or requires extra effort to achieve results, adoption will suffer. Even the most powerful AI or analytics engine cannot compensate for a confusing or poorly structured interface. Enterprises now demand experiences that are seamless, efficient, and aligned with real workflows.    This shift means that product design is no longer a secondary consideration; it is critical to commercial success.  Founders and product leaders must prioritize usability, clarity, and delight in every interaction. Software that is difficult to use increases the risk of churn, lengthens sales cycles, and diminishes perceived value. Products must anticipate user needs and deliver solutions that integrate naturally into existing workflows.  The companies that succeed are the ones that treat user experience as a strategic differentiator. Ignoring this trend creates friction, frustration, and missed opportunities for adoption and revenue growth. Design quality is now inseparable from product value and market competitiveness.  The message is clear: if you want your product to be adopted, retain customers, and win in the market, UX must be central to your strategy.” —   “No user really wants to ‘check a dashboard' or use a feature for its own sake. Dashboards, charts, and tables are outputs, not solutions. What users care about is completing their tasks, solving their problems, and achieving meaningful results.  Designing around workflows rather than features ensures your product is indispensable. A workflow-first approach maps your solution to the actual tasks users perform in the real world.  When we understand the jobs users need to accomplish, we can build products that deliver real value and remove friction. Focusing solely on features or data can create bloated products that users ignore or struggle to use.  Outputs are meaningless if they do not fit into the context of a user's work. The key is to translate user needs into actionable workflows and design every element to support those flows.  This approach reduces cognitive load, improves adoption, and ensures the product's ROI is realized. It also allows you to anticipate challenges and design solutions that make workflows smoother, faster, and more efficient.  By centering design on actual tasks rather than arbitrary metrics, your product becomes a tool users can't imagine living without. Workflow-focused design directly ties to measurable outcomes for both end users and buyers. It shifts the conversation from features to value, making adoption, satisfaction, and revenue more predictable.” — “Just because a product is built with AI or powerful data capabilities doesn't mean anyone will adopt it. Long-term value comes from designing solutions that users cannot live without. It's about creating experiences that take people from frustration to satisfaction to delight.  Products must fit into users' natural workflows and improve their performance, efficiency, and outcomes. Buyers' perceived ROI is closely tied to meaningful adoption by end users. If users struggle, churn rises, and financial impact is diminished, regardless of technical sophistication.  Designing for delight ensures that the product becomes a positive force in the user's daily work. It strengthens engagement, reduces friction, and builds customer loyalty.  High-quality UX allows the product to demonstrate value automatically, without constant explanations or hand-holding. Delightful experiences encourage advocacy, referrals, and easier future sales.  The real power of design lies in aligning technical capabilities with human behavior and workflow.  When done correctly, this approach transforms a tool into an indispensable part of the user's job and a demonstrable asset for the business.  Focusing on usability, satisfaction, and delight creates long-term adoption and retention, which is the ultimate measure of product success.” — “Your product should enter the user's work stream like a raft on a river, moving in the same direction as their workflow. Users should not have to fight the current or stop their flow to use your tool.  Introducing friction or requiring users to change their behavior increases risk, even if the product delivers ROI. The more naturally your product aligns with existing workflows, the easier it is to adopt and the more likely it is to be retained.  Products that feel intuitive and effortless become indispensable, reducing conversations about usability during demos. By matching the flow of work, your solution improves satisfaction, accelerates adoption, and enhances perceived value.  Disrupting workflows without careful observation can create new problems, frustrate users, and slow down sales. The goal is to move users from frustration to satisfaction to delight, all while achieving the intended outcomes.  Designing with the flow of work ensures that every feature, interface element, and interaction fits seamlessly into the tasks users already perform. It allows users to focus on value instead of figuring out how to use the product.  This alignment is key to unlocking adoption, retaining customers, and building long-term loyalty.  Products that resist the natural workflow may demonstrate ROI on paper but fail in practice due to friction and low engagement.  Success requires designing a product that supports the user's journey downstream without interruption or extra effort.  When you achieve this, adoption becomes easier, sales conversations smoother, and long-term retention higher.” —

You'll get a simple, repeatable AI workflow to generate three on-brand thumbnail options (A/B/C) in one session and pick the winner without guessing.We start with a real call many agents get (“you're not showing up online”) and pivot to what actually moves the needle: clear, phone-readable thumbnails that match the promise of your video. Then we cover the 2–6 word headline rule, the realtor-friendly layout (face on one side, headline on the other, high contrast), and a 45-minute weekly cadence to produce, test, and improve.▶️ Watch the companion video + grab the thumbnail prompt package here: https://santaclaritaartificialintelligence.com/post/class-12-if-your-thumbnails-suck-people-are-not-seeing-your-content-make-them-better-with-aiShow links: • Free community: SantaClaritaAI.com • Blog + resources: SantaClaritaArtificialIntelligence.com • Video + prompts (again, for easy tap): https://santaclaritaartificialintelligence.com/post/class-12-if-your-thumbnails-suck-people-are-not-seeing-your-content-make-them-better-with-aiYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

What if every morning you woke up to the biggest breakthroughs in your industry - already summarised and ranked before your first sip of coffee? In this Quick Win episode, I speak with Morgan Brown, Vice President of Product and Growth at Dropbox, about how he uses AI to simplify his workday - from automating his inbox to designing a daily AI briefing that scans and summarises the entire landscape of research papers, newsletters, tweets, and podcasts. Starting with one simple prompt, Morgan built a system that cuts through noise and delivers only what really matters. Morgan and I discuss: How Morgan uses AI to automate routine tasks like email triage and information curation. The process he followed to build a personalised daily AI news digest. Why his approach started not with coding, but with one simple question: What do I keep checking every day? How he refined his system through prompts, iteration, and feedback loops — just like editing a great piece of writing. The mindset shift from consuming more information to filtering for signal over noise. KEY QUOTES “I realised there was no way to stay on top of that volume consistently - so I started with a prompt.” “I didn’t start with coding or fancy tools. It started with asking, what sources do I keep checking and how can I pull them together?” Connect with Morgan Brown on X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and his website https://www.morganbrown.co/ Check out Morgan’s book Hacking Growth.

Brantley Pearce, Chief Technology Officer at RJ Young, discussed the integration of IT services, workflow automation, and workplace technology within the managed services sector. RJ Young, a 70-year-old organization with approximately 700 employees, has been providing managed services since 2012 and has seen significant growth, now generating $12 billion in revenue. The company emphasizes a collaborative approach, utilizing account managers as liaisons who work alongside specialists to deliver tailored solutions that meet client needs while maintaining operational efficiency.The conversation highlighted the growing importance of compliance, particularly in relation to the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) for Department of Defense contractors. RJ Young is actively engaging in this area, recognizing the demand for compliance services among small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) that often lack adequate security measures. Additionally, the firm is focusing on enhancing clients' security postures through network segmentation and the implementation of Security Operations Center (SOC) and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services.Pearce also addressed the challenges of workflow automation, noting that many organizations struggle to implement these solutions due to their day-to-day operational demands. While there is interest in AI and automation, the most effective solutions are those that are already integrated into existing platforms. The need for human involvement in understanding and optimizing business processes remains critical, as many clients are too occupied with immediate tasks to focus on long-term improvements.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service leaders, the discussion underscores the necessity of evolving service offerings to include compliance and security solutions while maintaining a human-centric approach. As automation technologies advance, the ability to provide strategic guidance and personalized service will differentiate successful MSPs in a competitive landscape. Engaging clients in meaningful conversations about their business goals and challenges will be essential for fostering long-term partnerships and driving growth.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I unpack how Microsoft is empowering business users with new Copilot agents that simplify app creation and workflow automation — no coding needed.Highlights00:11 — Microsoft has launched a series of new agents for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers in the Frontier Program: App Builder and Workflows, designed to accelerate the creation of AI-driven apps and workflows. These agents make it incredibly easy for general business users to utilize natural language in order to create apps, workflows, and even additional agents.00:46 — The Workflows agent allows users to automate tasks such as email, mail apps, and calendar management across Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, Planner, and other services like Approvals. Steps of the automation are displayed in real time and follow the same Copilot conversation, making it easy to add more or edit existing workflow steps.01:24 — In a blog post, Charles Lamanna, President of Business and Industry Copilot at Microsoft, outlined a use case for these new agents: "Imagine you're preparing for a product launch with a few multi-turn interactions. Create an app for a product launch process where teams can track launch milestones, assign tasks, and view campaign progress in a dashboard."01:37 — "Send a Teams update every Monday with upcoming launch deadlines and key tasks from Planner. Post reminders for approval deadlines in Teams channels. Build an agent that answers product launch questions like: “What's the next milestone?”, “How do I submit creative assets?”, or “When is the launch event?”, using SharePoint resources and Teams conversations."02:08 — Regarding Microsoft's strategy for Copilot: step one involved integrating Copilot everywhere to ensure easy access and increasing familiarity. Step two was the launch of Copilot Studio Lite, which allows any user to build agents easily. Now, step three is focusing on finding the off-the-shelf agents available to make complex tasks such as app development and workflow automation seamless. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Here's the big problem with journey maps...It's often like you've composed a masterpiece, but no one is there to actually play it.This is what I feel when I see a carefully crafted map (our version of "music on paper"), which ultimately fails to make an impact. Sure, we do the research, map the insights, and identify opportunities, but on Monday morning, everyone just goes back to their old routines, checking off to-do items in Jira, ClickUp, or Asana.The map becomes an impressive visual, but it's disconnected from the way work is done.This is the implementation gap, and it's where most journey management efforts fail.So in episode 7 of the Journey Management Playbook series, Tingting Lin and I address this exact problem head-on. This isn't a guide about what to map rather, it's about how to plug your insights into the operational reality of your organization.We're moving beyond the theory and into the practical, day-to-day workflow.I even share my own project management setup, share how things get done in my business and we discuss how to bridge the gap between my project list and the customer journey.In this episode, you'll hear:* Why creating a "parallel workflow" for journey management is a recipe for failure.* How to "plug into" your organization's existing ceremonies.* A practical way to reverse-engineer your team's current project backlog and to connect it back to the journey.* The right way to use prioritization matrixes to spark stakeholder conversations and grow alignment.So if you want to make your journeys the driving force behind your daily decisions, not just another document lost on a hard drive or fading away on the wall, make sure you don't miss this one.--- [1.

Healthcare organizations are increasingly channeling significant investment into the cloud as they look to reduce—and in some cases eliminate—the need for on-premises data centers. While PACS remains the largest imaging system, many other solutions such as VNA, Workflow, Image Sharing/Exchange, Reporting, and AI are also well positioned for migration.This podcast will share lessons learned from Philips through transformational case studies of peer institutions, provide guidance on how to best leverage data in the cloud, and outline effective strategies to prioritize, scope, and sequence application migrations. This episode is sponsored by Philips EI.

What does it take to turn AEC's ‘impossible quests'—like coordination, data sharing, and upskilling—into victories? Every great innovation begins with a quest. Recorded live at Autodesk University 2025 in Nashville, this episode features Jessica Brams-Miller, Director of Design Technology at Hart Howerton, as she leads us through the epic adventure of solving AEC's toughest challenges — from the Point-Limit Basilisk to the Merge Hydra. Jessica shares how creativity, collaboration, and a “fellowship of leaders” mindset are helping firms turn roadblocks into victories. When teams share data instead of guarding it like the One Ring, innovation becomes a shared journey — not a solo climb.

Dominic Gannaway joins us to talk about Ripple.js, a new TypeScript-first UI framework built with its own templating language and a focus on clarity and reactivity. We explore how Ripple.js handles fine-grained updates through its track and block system, why it avoids global state, and how context plays a key role. Dominic also walks us through the developer experience, from the language server and VS Code integration to syntax highlighting and the Prettier plugin, plus how the framework handles error boundaries, server-side rendering, future plans, and more.

What happens when a tech leader with a background in democratizing design at companies like Figma turns their attention to architecture? This week, we're joined by Radhika Parashar Narain, Head of Marketing at Arcol, a software company reimagining how architects design and collaborate.Coming from the world of Software as a Service (SaaS), Radhika offers a fresh and insightful perspective on a profession she finds fascinatingly complex and creative, yet overdue for better tools. She shares her initial shock at the fragmented, inefficient, and often joyless workflows architects are forced to navigate. Radhika discusses the cultural and practical hurdles to tech adoption in an industry rooted in tradition, from the high "cost of change" after years spent learning legacy software to a scarcity mindset around collaboration. The conversation explores how Arcol, founded with a "Figma for BIM" ethos, aims to bring simplicity, accessibility, and collaboration to the earliest stages of design.Ultimately, Radhika's vision is not about disruption for its own sake, but about empowerment. She argues that by embracing intuitively designed, cloud-based tools, architects can reduce friction, foster collaboration, and rediscover the joy in their craft. Her hope is for architects to raise their standards for the software they use every day."My hope for the profession is for architects to have as high expectations as we have of the tools that we can foresee and we can kind of imagine can bring that joy back to the process." - Radhika Parashar NarainThis episode concludes with a call for the profession to see technology as a leverage point. Radhika encourages architects, especially students and smaller firms, to experiment early, build collaboration as a muscle, and use new tools to "punch above their weight." By democratizing access to powerful, well-designed software, the next generation can move beyond the limitations of legacy systems and focus on what they do best: creating the built world.Guest:Radhika Parashar Narain is the Head of Marketing at Arcol, a software company building a new generation of design and collaboration tools for architects. With a background in SaaS and design technology, including a tenure at Figma, she is passionate about empowering creators with better tools and making design more accessible to everyone.Is This Episode for You?This episode is for you if:✅ You are an architect frustrated with your current software and workflows. ✅ You are curious about how the mindset of Silicon Valley (SaaS) applies to the AEC industry. ✅ You want to understand the challenges and opportunities of tech adoption in architecture. ✅ You believe in the power of technology to democratize design and empower smaller firms. ✅ You are a student or educator looking for the next wave of tools that will shape the future of practice.

In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Kate Dilligan, CEO of Cooler Heads.Cooler Heads is a commercial-stage company addressing a problem affecting many chemotherapy patients undergoing treatment for solid tumors: hair loss and the loss of privacy that comes with it. The company's FDA-cleared medical device, Amma, makes scalp cooling accessible by fitting into infusion center workflows rather than disrupting them.Kate brings an unconventional background to medtech — from political fundraising to developing classified software for the U.S. government. As a solo female founder who had never worked in hardware, she started Cooler Heads in 2018 after her own experience with breast cancer. By mid-2025, the company had raised $11 million in Series A funding and placed devices across 27 states, with most accounts having never offered scalp cooling before.In this interview, Kate shares how to design for health system adoption by solving workflow problems first, why saying “no” to scope creep protects your first-generation product, and how political fundraising tactics translate directly to building investor relationships in medtech.Before we dive into the discussion, I wanted to mention a few things:First, if you're into learning from medical device and health technology founders and CEOs, and want to know when new interviews are live, head over to Medsider.com and sign up for our free newsletter.Second, if you want to peek behind the curtain of the world's most successful startups, you should consider a Medsider premium membership.

From Novice Prompts to Expert Systems: How to Build AI Workflows That Run Your Routine Work While You LeadIn Part 1, we explored the foundational mindset for AI executive productivity—the shift from 80% routine work to 80% creative work. Now, in Part 2, Barry O'Reilly reveals the specific AI executive workflow automation systems that make this transformation real.This isn't theory. These are the exact workflows, prompts, and systems that Barry and leading executives use daily to reclaim their time and amplify their leadership impact.What you'll learn: The weekly business review system that takes 90 seconds instead of 30 minutes. How to audit your work with AI's help. Building your personal prompt library. And why your unlearning rate must exceed your irrelevance rate.The AI Executive Workflow Automation Philosophy: Creative Work + Automated DisciplineBefore diving into specific systems, understand the core principle driving effective AI executive workflow automation: "Every time you can automate routine but disciplined work, you're moving the needle toward having more capacity to do creative problem-solving work. That's where you get the power and real promise of what AI is—people doing the best work of their life." Barry O'Reilly The Work Category FrameworkAI executive workflow automation works by understanding two distinct categories of leadership work:Category 1: Creative Problem-Solving WorkStrategic planning and vision developmentComplex decision-making in ambiguous situationsCoaching team members through challengesInnovation and new product/service designBuilding relationships and influencing stakeholdersPattern recognition across diverse business situationsCategory 2: Routine Disciplined WorkWriting meeting follow-ups and summariesTracking action items and deadlinesSending reminder notificationsCompiling weekly/monthly reportsScheduling and calendar managementData entry and information organizationThe AI Executive Workflow Automation Insight: Humans should do Category 1. Machines should automate Category 2. The problem is most executives spend 80% of their time in Category 2.As Barry explains: "Machines essentially offer this opportunity to automate a lot of that disciplined, repeatable, routine work—like having an auto-scheduler that sends an email 5 days before a task is due. I don't want to think about it, I don't want to send it, but a machine is amazing at making sure it follows up and does that."The Self-Audit: Ask AI to Analyze Your Work EfficiencyThe first AI executive workflow automation you should implement is having AI audit where you're spending your time. This creates objective data about your current state.The Initial Audit PromptCopy this prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, or your preferred LLM: What AI Will Ask YouWhen Barry guides executives through this process, AI typically asks questions like:About Creative Work:"What tasks do you find most creative, interesting, and rewarding? List them all out.""When do you feel most energized during your workday?""What work would you do more of if you had unlimited time?"About Routine Work:"What tasks are time-sinks that feel like necessary evils?""What do you find yourself repeatedly doing that could be standardized?""What work drains your energy without adding strategic value?"About Time Allocation:"What percentage do you spend on creative work versus routine work?""Over the last year, how much time have you spent on these categories?" (You can even connect your calendar)Example: The Business Expenses AutomationBarry provides a concrete example: "Say it identifies you spend 5 hours a week doing your business expenses. Necessary, because your accountant wants those things. The machine could say to you, 'Instead of spending those 5 hours manually capturing expenses each month, why don't you try to automate it like this?'"Potential Solution: Use an app where you photograph receipts as they happ...
