  • insightful conversations for authors and entrepreneurs

    I really enjoyed the episode with Matthew Lynn: Journalist and Author Turned Publishing Entrepreneur. His story about navigating rejections, embracing digital publishing, and building new opportunities from a back catalogue resonated with me as an author who also thinks about the business side of books. That’s what makes this show stand out — it highlights not only big ideas but also the practical realities of being an author and entrepreneur. Each episode leaves me with fresh insight and inspir... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Case for Career Services
Q: Can you differentiate between getting people ready to go out into the job market and treating higher education like a pipeline?
The guest explains that career services go beyond placing graduates in jobs; they cultivate a set of adaptable skills, experiential learning, and a narrative that helps students articulate what they can do in a variety of settings, preparing them for multiple careers over a lifetime.
J. S. Nelson, "Business Ethics: What Everyone Needs to Know" (Oxford UP, 2021)
Q: What is the role of shareholder value versus other stakeholders in governance?
They discuss stakeholders beyond shareholders, including employees, customers, communities, and suppliers, and emphasize governance that integrates broad responsibilities and long-term performance.
J. S. Nelson, "Business Ethics: What Everyone Needs to Know" (Oxford UP, 2021)
Q: How do you balance different disciplinary perspectives when teaching business ethics?
The interviewees describe integrating psychology, economics, philosophy, and law to show both strengths and weaknesses of each framework, and to design systems that foster prosocial behavior without allowing rationalizations to justify misconduct.
J. S. Nelson, "Business Ethics: What Everyone Needs to Know" (Oxford UP, 2021)
Q: What were you hoping to accomplish with this book that existing business ethics texts were not doing?
Nelson explains the goal was to make ethics usable and actionable across disciplines, delivering content in a concise questions-and-answers format so readers can apply it in real-world, everyday business decisions.
Fighting Social Isolation And Loneliness: The Importance Of Good Processes And Hosting In Community Leadership
Q: Is business at odds with community? How do you reconcile these priorities?
There isn't a necessary conflict; many organizers balance nonprofit and for-profit pressures, and transparency about funding helps align mission with sustainability, showing that communities can grow through both grassroots effort and thoughtful resource use.
