  • Part 1: Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, Sexism & The COVID-19 Pandemic

    Welcome to: Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, Sexism & The COVID-19 Pandemic

    • With Prof. Takeshita from the University of Shizuoka - School of Management and Information
    • What we talk about:

      • 00:00 Intro
      • 03:03 Consequences Of Yoshiro Mori's Sexist Remarks: Since the recording on February 12, 2021 the President of the Tokyo Olympic Organization Committee, Mori, has resigned, due to international pressure after his sexist and discriminatory comments against women. This could be a circuit breaker for Japan's archaic and inequality-driven culture.
      • 14:05 Chances of 2020 Tokyo Olympics in 2021: What are the odds for the Tokyo Summer Olympics 2020 to be held in July of 2021, after having been postponed due to the Covid19 crisis? Not very high according to Takeshita San. Japan is estimated to have spent anywhere between 25bn and 35bn USD so far on hosting the Olympics, making it the costliest Olympics in history. Sponsorship money for the event stands at close to 6bn USD.
      • 19:00 COVID-19 & Economic Impact: The economic impact of not hosting the Summer Olympics could be severe not only for Tokyo but also for the Japanese economy itself.
      • 25:00 COVID-19 & Stock Valuations & Investments

          • Part 1: Electric Cars & Future Mobility - With fox e-mobility CEO Philippe Perret and Patricia Falco Beccalli

            Welcome to part 1 of my conversation with fox e-mobility CEO Philippe Perret

            What we talk about:

            • 00:00 - Electric Vehicles Are Booming According to Philippe, the time – the ZEITGEIST - is right to move fully into the Electric Vehicle (EV) market. Apart from Tesla, there are now more and more car producers such as Ford and Volvo that announced to change their complete fleet to be powered by batteries only in a few years’ time.
            • 06:40 – Mia 1.0 vs. Mia 2.0 The Mia 2.0 is 95% recyclable and has zero C02 emissions. It is 950kg light, has a range of ca 200km, takes about 30 minutes to recharge, and is targeted at the inner-city area only – be it to B2C and also to B2B customers for the "last-mile delivery".
            • 09:10 – EV Branding, Pricing and Range
            • 17:45 – Small Electric Vehicles - The A-Segment EV sales have shot up almost 140% during 2020 in Europe and the global market share stood at 4.2% of all ‘traditional’ cars that same year. The biggest competitors to the European car market – also in the segment of EVs – are China and the USA. Despite this, many customers still have concerns regarding EV pricing and affordability, range and battery recycling.
            • 23:10 – Who buys Electric Vehicles?
            • About fox e-mobility AG:

              The aim is to develop fox e-mobility AG into one of the leading pure battery electric vehicle companies in Europe. The focus is on the development and production of innovative, functional, affordable, and fun-to-drive electric vehicles in Europe for all major European markets, starting with the MIA 2.0 at the beginning of 2023. 

              About Philippe Perret:

              From 2004 till mid-2020, Philippe led two French listed companies in the renewable sector (mainly wind and solar): Theolia SA (2004-2008) and Global EcoPower SA (2009-2020), which he co-founded. Theolia was developed from a €5m to a 1.2bn market capitalization and belonged to the SBF 120 of the Paris Stock Market. He has a comprehensive track record in renewables and sustainability as well as in financing, fundraising, M&A, corporate banking, and capital markets.

                • Part 2: Youth Crime & Violence In Colombia - Catalina Cock Duque & Artist Juanes Fight To Save The Youth

                  👩🏻 Welcome to part 2 of my conversation with Catalina Cock Duque, Co-Founder of Foundation "Mi Sangre".

                  What we talk about:

                  • 00:00 Transforming a Society
                  • 07:36 How to Co-create Change 
                  • 13:26 Key Learnings for a Peaceful Society
                  • 16:35 How to Support "Mi Sangre"
                  • Mi Sangre was co-founded by Catalina Cock Duque and Music Star Juanes. Here his comments on the What and Why of the foundation in a Billboard article (Source = https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/magazine-feature/6730154/juanes-philanthropy-colombia-mi-sangre-foundation):

                    As Colombia's civil war winds down, the Latin rocker, 43, shares with Billboard his hopes for his Mi Sangre Foundation, which has provided support for thousands of landmine victims since 2006.  The name Mi Sangre [My Blood] is inspired by the same sentiment behind my [2004] album of the same name: It’s about my children, my children’s children, my land, my roots. It’s what hurts and what’s important to me. When I wrote [2000’s] “Fijate Bien” about landmine victims, I was living in Los Angeles; I would speak to my mother every day, as I still do, about what was going on back home in Colombia. But it wasn’t until I went and talked to people face-to-face that I understood the gravity of the situation. I remember being invited to sing for wounded soldiers. Hearing firsthand the stories of people who had been directly affected by the conflict, it moved me to the point that I said, “I want to do something. “Colombia’s transition toward a peaceful society is our priority. The government is negotiating for peace with [left-wing guerrilla group] FARC. After nearly 60 years of fighting, so much blood has been spilled, but it’s a historic moment because we will be able to start a new chapter based on forgiveness and reconciliation.

                          • Part 2: Does Democracy Work? Our Conversation With MiVote Founder & Chairman Adam Jacoby

                            Welcome to: Does Democracy Work? A Conversation With MiVote Founder & Chairman Adam Jacoby

                            • 🧔🏻 Adam Jacoby, Founder & Chairman of MiVote
                            • What we talk about:

                              • 00:00 Intro
                              • 00:38 What Voters Want?! Adam believes that Democracy and Politics are mutually EXCLUSIVE in both: philosophy and practice! Driven by this belief, Adam created MiVote with the intention to disrupt the established democratic process. He believes that the current process is flawed and does not allow for true democracy, i. e. creating policies guided by the electorate’s needs.
                              • 11:18 The Role of the Media: MiVote helps governments to really listen to their voters using blockchain technology. It helps voters to gain information about proposed policies to make educated choices. The ‘4th estate’, the media, is playing a vital role in the democratic process but needs to be 1. Based on "truth and media laws" and 2. Diversification of media companies. Media monopolies endanger any democracy. 
                              • 18:55 Loss of Values & Diversity
                              • 25:10 Adam's Key Insights: Adam thinks that the key to democracy and a good life: understanding that having the right to vote is a privilege, not to be afraid of people and their opinion and live ‘your truth’ and be authentic.

                                      • 00:00 - US & Democratic Process MiVote Founder Adam Jacoby and me, we're talking about the democratic system and the communication between voters and politicians. Adam tells us that just because we have an election, does not mean that we are living in a democracy. He questions how, for example, how a bi-partisan political system can actually ensure that the needs of the population are catered for.
                                      • 08:55 - Political Apathy & Outrage The main problem seems to be that the political system and politicians display the disability to really listen to the people. Polls are based on too few choices, created by a preconceived base. There is a huge need to educate and communicate better between voters and the political system. Many people cast their votes based on family traditions, some opinion leader in their friendship group, or their short-term needs, such as tax affecting their pay wallets directly.
                                      • 18:54 - What is MiVote?

                                            • 👩🏼 Emma Isaacs, Founder and Global CEO of Business Chicks & Author

                                            • What we talk about in part two of our conversation:

                                              • 00:00 Money Is Not a Dirty word Money is not a dirty word! Emma had to learn that money-seeking and creating wealth and financial independence - is nothing to be ashamed of. Money is a tool to do many good things. It’s a fundamental enabler and especially women need to become smarter with money matters and start investing.
                                              • 10:00 Business & Women In Business Till today the business environment does not make it too easy for women to be successful. But many women stand in their own way and feel inferior, never enough, and are eaten up by self-doubt and overanalysis. The solution to that is to just do it and in that feel more in control and empowered.
                                              • 17:10 Crisis To Creation Moments
                                              • 21:30 3 Emma's Key Insights Emma’s Key insights from the 2nd part of our conversation are: 1. Take relationship building seriously and focus on it.

                                                          Welcome to part two of my conversation with "The North Face" Sports Apparel Empire Founder Hap Klopp:This is what's in it for you in detail:

                                                          00:00 - Intro & Learnings In Building "The North Face"

                                                          For Hap failure is just a guide to finding the right strategy in achieving an objective. Failing is ok and needs to be embraced by a company’s culture. In order to have motivated staff, the best strategy is to hire motivated people.

                                                          07:00 - How to deal with failure

                                                          17:24 - What it takes to be successful

                                                          It is fundamental to listen to the team and stakeholders of a company in order to build a sustainable business.The fundamental reason why Hap sold The North Face in 2000, was that the business needed more management, fund raising and process than what he enjoyed. Creating new products and innovation are more of his interest.

                                                          20:48 - Leadership Advice

                                                          More about Hap Klopp:  In 1968 when Hap Klopp traded-in his corporate aspirations for the life of an entrepreneur, the support network for such endeavors was not nearly what it is today. However, Hap knew that he had what it took to run a successful business and lead The North Face for 20 years as his CEO. He sold the company in 2020 and today The North Face is valued at 13 billion USD.  After the passing of his father, Hap Klopp ran the family business while finishing his undergraduate degree at Stanford. He then went on to complete his MBA while orchestrating the sale of the business. After graduation, he went out to interview for positions only to find that no one was willing to hire him to run something – they all wanted him to start at the bottom and work his way up – which sounded pretty boring.

                                                          Hap’s focus was on consumer goods, marketing, sales and branding; which landed him an interview at Proctor and Gamble. During the course of the interview, he was introduced to the corporate mores that have pushed so many of us to pursue the life of an entrepreneur.  In short, P&G expected each employee to wear a white shirt and tie every day, to refrain from the use of nicknames and to dutifully mind their post until an opportunity for advancement was presented. It was settled, Hap was not cutout to work for anyone else, “I didn’t want any part of it…I didn’t fit into to it” – so he embarked on his entrepreneurial journey.
