November 23rd Show with Christopher Smalt, Cornell University Facilities

MP3

christopher smaltFew people have any idea of how complicated and stressful running a utilities plant at an Ivy League University can be.  Christopher Smalt is the assistant plant manager at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.

While Chris aspires to be “behind the scenes” the power, heating, air and water he provides to the students, workers, and faculty there is quite public, and the failure in any of those areas is a big problem.

Along with Chris, is EMA’s National Sales manager David Brigden.  Listen as Eddie, David, and Chris talk about customer pressures, leadership issues, career paths, and the upstate New York area.   Of special interest to many of you, is the Lake Cooling project there at Cornell, where they use the cold and deep waters of Cayuga Lake to save enormous amounts of energy there at Cornell.  Listen in..

Using data: Mike Siegle on Driven to Business

Mike Seigle is the Director of Research and Database Management for Landmark Communications. Mike manages the firm’s sophisticated statewide database of voters, creating mailing lists, phoning lists, walk lists and other “direct voter contact” projects.

Managing a political database and making sense of it has parallels to business data.  In these days of “big data,” it’s important that even small businesses and their leaders understand the tricks of this trade.  Mike has also been a history instructor at Georgia Perimeter for a number of years.

The term “big data” is tossed about by everone these days, but few if any of us are aware of how deeply our lives and businesses are embedded into those “big data” repositories of information.

Eddie and Mike will discuss the similarities between political polling, and business data management.  Knowing who your customers are, why they buy from you, and whether they’re likely to continue is of interest to any business, and in today’s highly competitive marketplace,  you can’t afford to be left behind.  As a history instructor, Mike also brings an interesting historical perspective to the growth of “big data,” and how its evolved.

Interesting guest..  great program..
