  • Sustainability Or Not? Manning and Schooler Discuss

    A must from Manning & Schooler: much about the unholy alliance of resources, sustainability, climate hysteria and profits. How about the perversion of both sustainability of resources and profit-making, the reason d’etre of business, in the intellectually bankrupt pursuit of climate hysteria?

    Let us be clear: without profits, continuity in business is not possible. And, corporate altruism does not exist. And much about how the relevance, and abundance or lack of resources have taken a back seat to ownership and control of those.

    In this podcast Nat Schooler was joined by Steven J. Manning — a noted business leader, advisor, author, speaker, broadcaster. A founder, CEO, Principal and Board Member of enterprises in the US and Europe.

    He writes and speaks on success, advertising, marketing, conflict resolution, writing, leadership, politics, social constructs, history and more. His professional and personal relationships include captains of industry, world-renown educators, authors, thought-leaders, sports personalities.

  • Bani VS Vuca VS Tuna VS Rupt And A Partridge In Pear Tree!

    This week, we have a special guest, Steven J. Manning, who is an expert in strategic foresight and scenario planning. He joins me to discuss the various acronyms that are used to describe the uncertain and complex future we are facing, such as VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity), BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Non-linear and Incomprehensible), RUPT (Rapid, Unpredictable, Paradoxical and Tangled) and TUNA (Turbulent, Uncertain, Novel and Ambiguous). They explore the origins, meanings and implications of these terms, and how they can help us or hinder us in making sense of the world.

    We also challenge the idea that these acronyms are just word salads that obscure rather than clarify our understanding of reality. Tune in to this fascinating conversation and learn how to navigate the future with more confidence and clarity.
