Casey Biehl and Fat Boy’s Pizza Carefully Select Their Next Location – It’s Less Art, More Science

Casey Biehl is the VP of Operations for Fat Boy’s Pizza based in Metairie, Louisiana. This pizza chain is growing rapidly due to the quality of ingredients and the ambience of the restaurants. I got word they were looking to head further east and became curious of their recipe for selecting new locations for expansion – what do they look for in a community? How far do people travel for to come to their stores? What type of commercial centers work best for them? How much do they spend per visit and what types of neighborhoods does this imply? Casey, with a background in food and bev from the casino world, tells the story.

Brad Davidson is One of the Nation’s Top Athletic Trainers. One of his Niche Clients are Busy and Stressed Executives.

Water, walks, and sleep. Those were the three biggest points that stood out when I heard Brad Davidson speak at a recent corporate event. He’s trained athletes ranging from high school football teams to NFL left tackles. His recipe for busy executives eaten up with stress is more water, longer walks, and better sleep. It’s a foundationally different approach to exercise for people in middle age than anything I’ve heard. His book on how to do it was a best seller.

My 18yo Son Shares His Generation’s View of Work and Leadership. Plus a High Schooler’s Review of Taylor Swift

Meet my son Spencer. A tradition of What’s Working is to interview my children upon their high school graduation. He’s off to the University of Alabama in the fall. We discuss what skills he predicts will be needed in the job market, his prediction of the impact of AI on tomorrow’s workplace and where he hopes to land in the work world. You might hear me choke up a bit when telling him how proud his mother and I are of him.

Also in this show is Emma Gage’s review of Taylor Swift. Emma, an incoming high shool junior, is a “Swifty” and travelled to Houston with her father to see the show. Her review begins around minute 46 and she nails it.

ESG is Here. It’s in the Background of Nearly Every Product You Touch. Kai Gray’s Consultancy Helps Companies Ready Themselves For It.

ESG is not something “out there” or only discussed in political environments. ESG (environmental, social, governance) is here and is shaping the way businesses interact with each other and with customers. Kai Gray and his parters run Motive ESG. They work with businesses to improve their ESG scores, thereby enabling them to compete for business with some of the nation’s defense contractors, major manufactorers, building contractors and such. Kai predicts ESG will become a filter through which the next generation invests money and even buys product at the grocery store.

I met Heikki Malinen at a conference in Point Clear, Alabama for his company, Outokumpu. His presentation showed a grasp of world events like none I’d seen before. He travels nearly non-stop, visiting the company’s stainless steel plants across the world. The war in Ukraine has impacted his company’s ability to get the affordable electricity he needs to power his plants in Europe. Workforce issues are a challenge to his facilities across Europe and the US. His challenges are familiar to listeners of What’s Working, but the scale is much different. You’ll find in Heikki, as is so often the case, a remarkable grasp of detail, a nice and friendly demeanor, and an infinite curioustiy.
