Old Dog, New Tricks Oct 14, 2022

Show notes

There’s an old saying, “you can’t teach a dog new tricks”. In today’s ever evolving world, especially in certain industries, continuous learning is a must, and that “old dog” stigma needs to be erased. Today, we explore why there is such a stigma of being an older individual stepping back into a learning environment, call out some our own experiences, and offer up some of our reasons why being a seasoned person in a learning environment is advantageous.

Impasta Saucedrome Oct 07, 2022

Show notes

We’ve all at one point in time felt that we are undeserving of some of our achievements, often shrugging them off and calling it sheer dumb luck or just dovetailing off someone else’s hard work. Sometimes these notions are inherent with the competitive and perfectionist nature of our industries. Today, we explore why we feel this way, how do we recognize them in ourselves and others, and what we can do to overcome them.

Crystal Ball Maintenance Sep 09, 2022

Show notes

It’s time to grab your crystal balls and six-sided dice! Today we’re talking about an initiative that’s slowly gaining more speed and popularity, predictive maintenance. What is it and how does it work? Is it different from “preventative” maintenance? Will this new initiative be the cost-effective savior we’ve been hoping for, or is it just overhyped troubleshooting?

Theory of Knowledge Aug 12, 2022

Show notes

Today, we're diving a little bit into the Quality Assurance realm. We go into the continuous improvement process, what goes into preventative action and the biases of ignoring objective evidence because they may not exactly align with your current beliefs or agenda. This theory of knowledge was coined and best made famous by W. Edwards Deming, an engineer and statistician, who is responsible for most of the quality assurance concepts we practice today.
