ASCII Anything

Season 4 kicks off in grand style as we talk with Stefanie Krevins, owner of Stefanie Krevins & Company, an organization that provides change management coaching and executive coaching. Our topic today is The Peter Principle, a management concept which points out the shortcomings of how people are promoted within organizations, stating that workers are promoted to their level of incompetence.

She works with CEOs, small business owners, C-suite leaders, and mid-level managers through small business coaching, team training, workshops, and speaking. Stefanie is also the host of the Hot Mess Hotline podcast, featuring conversations about hot messes that leaders have had to clean up. They tell their stories for all to hear and discuss the valuable lessons learned from those hot messes. 

It's end-of-season clips time again, our favorite part of the year. Host Angel Leon and Producer Brian take a spin through our third season, pulling out some of our favorites.

Looking back at the time we spend with our guests always brings a smile to our faces. And if you hear something that you like, please remember to go back and check out the full episode featuring that guest. There's plenty more goodness where these clips came from. (To borrow an old mining adage, you can follow these nuggets back to the mother lode.)

Thank you for joining us this season. We hope you have a terrific summer and we'll see you back here in late July or early August for Season 4 of ASCII Anything.

Frank Agin joins us this week to talk about networking in the modern world. The tools may have changed, with phones, computers, web cameras, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and other resources, but the foundation of establishing connections and forming relationships has remained the same. From time zone math to having no idea how tall a colleague is, we discuss some of the challenges that come along with modern networking in this week's episode.

It is May the 4th and that can only mean one thing for our Moser team. Our annual Star Wars Day Trivia Zoom Party. Join us this week as we interview last year's winner and grill him with some of our new Star Wars Day Trivia. Will he reign supreme again this year?

This week is another piece of our ongoing conversation between Shaun McAdams, Moser Consulting's VP of Data & Analytics and Warren Sifre, our Data & Analytics Director of Strategy.

Today's topic is the modern IT C-Suite, along with its newest title additions, and the responsibilities that are assigned to those roles.

Creativity doesn't have to mean a painting, a poem, or a song. Creative thinking can be applied to almost any challenge, whether or not you're wearing sunglasses, a scarf, or a beret. Malinda Lowder, Moser Consulting's Director of Marketing, joins us this week to talk creativity, creative thinking, and how to take a creative approach to your next project.

Jim Timberman joins us once again, making him a very strong candidate for an award we just made up....the MVPG! (Most Valuable Podcast Guest)

This week's topic is Disaster Recovery. What is it, why is it, how much should you have and what factors affect its cost?

After a nice break this past week, we're back for our next episode. This one features a discussion of Human-Centered Design and Design Thinking with two of Moser's resident experts in our Data & Analytics Division: Adrienne Watts and Sarah Moore. 

In this week's episode, we'll learn what Human-Centered Design is. We'll learn about the 5 phases Moser takes our clients through during a project, what makes Moser's approach to Human-Centered Design unique, and we'll learn what happens when a project leads to unexpected discoveries.
