S02E04 - Tips - Surviving and thriving the first 90 days.
Do you remember what it was like when you started a new job? The mix of anticipation and anxiety, navigating unfamiliar territory, and wishing you had a guidebook to help you through those early days? I certainly do, especially when I began my career in operations and progressed to higher positions within the corporate ladder. Someone who could provide a blueprint for success would have been so precious and could have prevented me from getting a few bloody noses.
In this episode, we will address this not-so-unique situation and give a few tips to survive and thrive in the first 90 days.
S02E03 GHG - The last business card you ever need
We are lucky to get CEO & co-founder of contactify, Lars Sager, into our studio to talk about transforming a category with a most innovative concept to net zero, maybe even negative zero.
To ease into the overall topic of getting all categories to net zero before 2050, we start with something that most of us use(d), although 80-90% of the category ends in the trash bin one week after being used...business cards.
Ten billion business cards are printed in the USA alone...
Lars will talk us through how easy it is to be innovative (I'd say even cool), improve branding and marketing, achieve stickiness in CRM, and do it carbon-neutral...while even saving money.
Enjoy & why not make it a habit to source categories with a net zero footprint...by taking the first step with...the last business card you'll ever need.
Supply Chain - Diversity & Inclusion … or simply being human
Due to popular demand, we do a re-run of the show on Diversity & Inclusion or Simply being human. The last episode was about procurement and many listeners felt, we were focussing too much on the GHG side of ESG…so here it is.
Procurement: To be …or not to be. That is the question…
Do we need a procurement function? Are we not better off, doing the sourcing ourselves? These folks in procurement - what are they doing after breakfast anyway? This episode is to shed some light of what procurement can and can not do. Enjoy.
