In this episode our hosts Jerry Lewis and Brian Woodward do an introductory interview with the leadership team of Auredia before spending time with 4 female Auredia team members including an Intern, a business Analyst, a data scientist, and “Jill of all trades”. We hear about Auredia’s unique approach to staffing – which is much more about finding people ‘who care’ and ‘who look out for each other’ than it is about any particular skill set.  We hear how a past welder fits into the core team and how a forensic anthropologist by education finds ways to apply her natural curiosity and habits of learning to her job in this exciting company.  The stories these women offer are inspirational, funny, and thought provoking.

In this episode our hosts Jason Duff and Brian Woodward talk with Ravi Kathuria, the President of the Houston Strategy Forum and Cohegic Corporation as well as author of “How Cohesive is Your Company” and “Happy Soul. Hungry Mind”.

Using Ravi’s wealth of experience we drill into Houston as a global center, especially as we transform from Oil & gas to more of an integrated energy business, and what we need to do in leadership and management through this transition to capture and assist in making this transition successful.

Ravis’ humor mixed with his excitement around these subjects is magnetic as you can tell listening to the podcast.

In this episode, black and brown employees of IBM talk with Zach Nunn, head of strategic growth at Diversity Inc and founder and CEO of Living Corporate, a DE&I network that amplifies black and brown voices in the workplace.  The conversation covers careers, sponsorship, personal experiences of racial profiling and lack of equal opportunity, and how DiversityInc and Living Corporate support Black and Brown employees.  Zach covers the role of data as the foundation for DE&I programs, and for creating more equity at work.  He covers expectations of the workforce of tomorrow regarding diversity – and how that relates to attracting and retaining talent.   He also covers how data, tooling, and job-related social networks can help executives and leaders plan for better D&I strategies.  Zach then answers questions from the panel and the live audience including how best to advance the cause of black and brown folks as an individual, what to do to force / encourage change at employers as an individual, how white entry and mid-level employees can support black and brown folks in the workplace. Zach also discusses the power of group solidarity and dynamics in advancing a cause and how whites can use their power and power dynamics to help black and brown folks progress in the workplace.

In this episode, our hosts Jason Duff and Jerry Lewis bring their 24 and 15-year-old daughters onto the podcast to talk about the energy industry.  In the conversation we learn what they know about their dads’ jobs, what their dads’ passions are, what they think about electric vehicles, sustainability as a concept and in practice, the power and influence of social media and the echo chambers it creates, net zero and what the daughters know about it, feelings on big company promises that all seem to land in 2050, working from home and the risks associated with a technology dominated life, ideas on how to support physical interaction or hybrid work environments, how technology can support a career in aestheology, thoughts on robots and automation, their feelings on the Oil and Gas industry, gas brand recognition, equal pay for women / all genders in industry, what they think we can do to fight gender based inequities in pay, women they admire in the world, how women are more naturally in places of power in native groups and what we can learn from these groups, how we put powerful women up on a pedestal and the implications for how that can be unfair to them (they can’t make mistakes without being cancelled), the tendency of young generations to stick to ‘one side’ and not be open to new ideas about a topic or a person, the reality that there will be bad leaders of all genders and we can’t be conditioned to overlook bad behaviors based on someone’s gender or status.  The daughters then ask their Dads about what their jobs really are, and the Dads ask their daughters what they are thinking about for their careers, discuss penguins (for just a bit), and talk about awareness of and efforts to fight sex trafficking.  The conversation ends with the girls’ opinions on what Leadership means, their discussion of Andrew Tate – a misogynistic podcaster and what we can or should do about people like this, fears relating to deep fakes and misinformation.
