  • The Real Cost of People Problems | Helena Ferrari

    The Real Cost of People Problems | Helena Ferrari
    Sep 16 2026
    Most owners think their biggest risks show up on the balance sheet. Helena Ferrari says the expensive ones are hiding in how your leaders show up every day.

    Helena Ferrari (GPHR, PHR) is a fractional Chief HR Officer, board director, and risk mitigation advisor who has saved companies more than $150M across 15 countries. She has a gift for taking "soft" HR problems and putting a hard dollar figure on them before they become a lawsuit, a settlement, or a revolving door.

    In this conversation with host David Carr, Helena unpacks:
    - Why the costliest risks live in your leaders, not your balance sheet
    - A 60% turnover problem dollarized to $6M a year — and fixed for a fraction of that
    - A wage-and-hour audit that surfaced a $900K exposure from missed meal breaks
    - Why every company needs an AI policy right now
    - Interview questions that are quietly illegal (one cost a company $120K)
    - Handling layoffs without triggering the WARN Act or bias claims
    - Why HR belongs at the board table — and at the deal seat before the LOI
    - Succession planning that keeps your IP from walking out the door
    - Three questions every leader should ask themselves this week

    Her throughline is freeing: your people aren't the problem. Most damage comes from accidental mistakes by leaders who were never trained to lead. Fix the system, dollarize the risk, and you protect both the business and the people in it.

  • Impact Shift: How to Pivot with Purpose and Build a Lasting Legacy | Rahul Prasad (BRP 20260126)

    Impact Shift: How to Pivot with Purpose and Build a Lasting Legacy | Rahul Prasad (BRP 20260126)
    Aug 5 2026
    What does it really mean to build a lasting legacy and can you begin shaping it while you are still living it? In this episode of the Business Roundtable Podcast, David Carr sits down with physicist, philanthropist, and author Raul Brazad to explore how leaders can pivot with intention and create meaningful impact beyond professional success.

    After a distinguished career as a senior physicist working on long-horizon nuclear fusion projects, Raul began asking a deeper question: What change can I make that I can actually see in my lifetime? That question led him from the national laboratory to global nonprofit leadership, serving as President of Butterflies USA and board chair of Amandla Development.

    Raul shares the concept behind his book, Impact Shift: The Art of Pivoting for Meaningful Change, and explains why transformation does not require a dramatic leap. Instead, it begins with micro-pivots — small, intentional steps outside your comfort zone. He challenges listeners to replace the question “Why should I?” with “Why not?” and to confront the self-censorship that often holds leaders back. Together, David and Raul explore:
    • Why legacy is about how people remember how you made them feel
    • How passion, purpose, and impact create meaning over time
    • Recognizing when you are “playing not to lose” instead of playing to win
    • The danger of comfort and incremental stagnation
    • How small experiments build confidence and clarity
    • Why giving with a “warm hand” creates deeper fulfillment
    Raul also shares powerful stories from his nonprofit work, including how a cooperative bank for street children in India reshaped a young boy’s vision of his own future — and why those visible, human outcomes reshaped Raul’s definition of success. If you are a leader who feels successful yet unsettled… accomplished yet curious… this episode offers a framework for thoughtful transition without reckless change. Because growth is not always about climbing higher — sometimes it is about shifting toward deeper purpose.

  • Solving a Capacity Problem, Not a Trend

    Solving a Capacity Problem, Not a Trend
    Aug 1 2026
    Most founders think they have a hiring problem. Pranav Dalal says it is usually a capacity problem, and that distinction changes everything about how you scale.

    Pranav is the founder and CEO of Office Beacon, a global outsourcing and remote staffing firm he has built over 25 years into a company of more than 5,500 employees across six countries. He started right after the dot com crash wiped out his first career, and the lessons from those early years still run the business today: never undervalue yourself, and never price yourself out of the market either.

    With David Carr, Pranav gets candid about the difference between being a visionary and being a bottleneck, and how knowing which one you are changes how you lead. You will hear how a single remote virtual assistant can hand a founder back hours a day, how Pranav approaches AI as an opportunity instead of a threat, and why he still runs quarterly town halls to keep culture from becoming transactional.

    If you are a founder wondering whether your next move should be more headcount or more structure, start here.
