Exploring the many ways technology and tech leaders are reshaping and re-imagining how we work and live in today’s ever-changing world.
Transformation Nation PodcastOn this episode of Tential’s Transformation Nation, Chief Digital Technology Officer and your host, Anna Frazzetto, interviews Dr. Hagen Wenzek, Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Officer for CorporateHealth International, and CEO of GI Digital. Anna welcomes Hagen to the show to discuss his transformation process, the user experiences that must be considered when testing a solution, and lessons learned regarding innovation, global tech development, and collaboration.
Hagen is a patent-holding inventor and relentless pursuer of tech innovation. Right now, Hagen and his global teams are transforming medical testing to deliver several impressive outcomes that include:
His innovation? A small gastrointestinal capsule with cameras on both ends, used for at-home complex diagnostic tests to identify “polyps,” which can prevent cancer and inflammatory bowel diseases if detected (and removed) early. To use, patients simply swallow the microtechnology, and from there, it takes a video of their intestines. Afterward, the video is sent to and analyzed by experts who make a diagnosis.
As the pair continue their conversation, they discuss the overwhelming number of norms Hagen is disrupting for patients, doctors, their teams and even hospital systems, GI Digital’s next big growth goal, and his best practices for mapping journeys and building excellent UX for patients and their medical teams. They also talk about how the pandemic has influenced his team’s efforts and the connection of his global team. We hope you enjoy this episode.

Transformation Nation PodcastOn this episode of Tential’s Transformation Nation, Chief Digital Technology Officer and your host, Anna Frazzetto, interviews DeLibra Wesley, CEO at National Recruiting Consultants. Anna brings DeLibra on the show to answer a question she believes most organizations are asking themselves as they start off a new year with grand ambitions: Are we bringing the momentum we need to our businesses and workplaces in 2022?
And who better to answer that question than DeLibra herself? Being the brilliant and bold entrepreneur she is, DeLibra built her own DEI consulting business and staffing agency after a highly successful career with The Delta Companies, where she rose to the C-suite as COO. Her transformation from senior corporate executive to entrepreneur of a fast-growing agency informs her approach in all areas. From helping businesses and individuals achieve their own ambitions, to recommending essential changes to increase inclusion, DeLibra is the ultimate growth guide.
Regarding the momentum businesses are looking to harness in 2022, DeLibra shares the impact COVID has had on talent, specifically female and minority talent, and why their departure from the workforce is a massive blocker for organizations stepping into 2022 with big goals. Her suggestion? Find a way to break the mold and get flexible! What can you do as an employer to meet your talent where they are now? To help retain them through the chaos?
As the pair continue their conversation, they discuss how to find candidates in this strange job market, advice for those looking to make a risky professional move, and how we can better support our overworked and understaffed teams. We hope you enjoy this episode.

Exploring the many ways technology and tech leaders are reshaping and re-imagining how we work and live in today’s ever-changing world.
Transformation Nation PodcastOn this episode of Tential’s Transformation Nation, Chief Digital Technology Officer and your host, Anna Frazzetto, interviews Jacqueline Slope, VP of Technology at Anaheim Ducks, Honda Center, The Rinks, San Diego Gulls, and H&S Ventures. Jackie sits at the crossroads of digital transformation, media, entertainment and sports. Before residing in sunny California, Jackie spent just over a decade in New York at Madison Square Garden. There she acted as their VP of business systems and project management, and was responsible for technology, leadership, and direction for the world-class sports, media, and entertainment committee.
As the pair dive into the transformations that consumers can expect in sports and entertainment and the technologies transforming the fan experience, Jackie notes that many of us will have little awareness of the changes – if they’re done right. Her team aims to make the arena-going experience seamless, from the moment you arrive at the venue to purchasing food and finding your seat.
Jackie also shares that after taking a short break from the sports space, she couldn’t wait to get back in the “lively weeds”, sharing that it’s a fun industry that gets her out of bed in the morning. In the spirit of giving, Jackie shares her advice for women curious about joining the field: “because sports is a growing industry with ample opportunity, being confident, showing up, and leaning in is all you must do to be tremendously successful in the space.”
As the old friends continue their conversation, they discuss the natural power of informal mentorship, the user experience best practices Jackie’s team leverages that apply in any industry, and how actively playing a role in your career and company’s development helps you gain confidence! We hope you enjoy this episode.

Exploring the many ways technology and tech leaders are reshaping and re-imagining how we work and live in today’s ever-changing world.
Transformation Nation PodcastOn this episode of Tential’s Transformation Nation, Chief Digital Technology Officer and your host, Anna Frazzetto, interviews Shaun Tomson, athlete, author, and keynote speaker, known for his legendary surfing skills. While Anna usually focuses on tech transformations during the podcast, Shaun notes that he works with internal tech and the software that drives us, encouraging our listeners to embrace disconnection as a way to connect fully despite the last two years of distance and havoc.
When Shaun wrote “The Code: The Power of ‘I Will,’” he set out to empower youth to be true to themselves, laying a simple framework for them to use to make positive decisions. Shaun mentions that in his experience, “if one has a strong code, one has a strong purpose and can ultimately create a positive attitude to make positive decisions.” Of course, that goes for individuals and businesses as well.
Through Shaun’s work as a keynote speaker, he’s empowered the human spirit through what he calls a “spirit language,” which consists of single lines of “code” or personal statements, beginning with “I will.” With time, Shaun has come to the beautiful realization that all of us are motivated by two common yet simple commitments:
These messages come from a human place of wanting to improve while helping others improve with us. We are all naturally social creatures who want to be part of a community and thrive together. Still, to do so, we must be intentional about connecting with nature, prayer, and the people we love.
As the pair continue their conversation, they discuss how the pandemic has driven a newfound realization of what’s truly important, how being a member of our global community falls somewhere between being selfless and selfish, and more! We hope you enjoy this episode.

The organization is dedicated to mentoring women as they take their next big step in their careers or passions, ultimately changing how women navigate their career path, network, and embrace opportunity.
Usually, when Anna sits down with a guest to talk tech it’s about big, far-reaching businesses, tech or digital transformations. However, with Marcy, Anna focuses on the small transformations in our lives and work, and how we emerge as professionals and people from the pandemic. Marcy notes that it will have a great impact on our success and happiness.
Being an expert in personal and professional growth, Marcy shares that whether you are gearing up for big or small transformation, it always comes down to two key components:
As the pair continue their conversation, they discuss how businesses should redefine what winning looks like, why building a successful mentorship program starts with mentees, and how going back to your core fundamentals tends to lower stress levels. We hope you enjoy this episode.

Transformation Nation PodcastOn this episode of Tential’s Transformation Nation, Chief Digital Technology Officer and your host, Anna Frazzetto, interviews Alfonso Perez, Head of Technology for Mizner Bioscience and e5 Pharma. Previously long-time colleagues, Anna and Alfonso discuss their shared passion for innovation, the strategic use of remote tech teams, and how to leverage automation for motivation.
Alfonso shares that he started his career as a developer, and explains why it makes a great foundation for being a CIO. According to Alfonso, the CIO is “the most fascinating role in a company,” and he and Anna discuss how current circumstances are redefining the role, what’s asked of that person, and what type of knowledge one needs to be successful in it.
Alfonso also expands on his passion for innovation and how he is constantly seeking the ideas of his colleagues at all company levels. He believes that innovation is how a company stays ahead of the curve and asks the question, “How do you leverage innovation as a competitive advantage?”
With years of experience in both technical and business roles, Alfonso and Anna talk about the effectiveness of remote tech teams — and that this approach has worked efficiently and effectively for much longer than we give it credit. Alfonso and Anna wrap things up with a conversation about what companies can learn from the fast growth of startups, and why it pays to be more strategic when it comes to outsourcing and anticipating challenges.
