IoT, AI, the Future of Work—if it’s revolutionizing industries, Peggy’s talking about it. Each week on The Peggy Smedley Show, she delivers cutting-edge perspectives from top experts, keeping 150,000+ listeners ahead of the curve.
Peggy looks back on Black History Month and looks forward to Women’s History Month, citing why it is important for a diverse workplace. She says complex workplaces require diverse thinkers to problem solve, innovate, and lead the next era of work.
She also discusses:
· How to translate awareness into hiring practices, leadership development, and culture.
· The data shows how inclusive workplaces are more successful.
· Three practical steps for building collaborative workplaces.


The Resilient Supply Chain Podcast is where global leaders tackle the future of supply chains, and how to make them stronger, smarter, and more sustainable.
Hosted by Tom Raftery, technology evangelist, sustainability thought-leader, and former SAP Global VP, the show features C-suite executives, founders, and innovators from across the world’s most influential companies. Together, we explore how organisations are building supply chains that can withstand shocks, adapt to change, and lead in a decarbonising economy.
Every Monday at 7 a.m. CET, new episodes drop – packed with real insights, not PR fluff.
From supply chain resilience and risk mitigation to AI-driven visibility, circular design, and ESG transformation, we unpack the data, systems, and strategies shaping global operations.
You’ll hear from the people actually doing the work – the ones leading on:
- Business continuity and crisis response
- Scope 3 emissions and supply chain sustainability
- Digital twins and predictive resilience
- Ethical sourcing and due diligence compliance
- Nearshoring, automation, and future-ready logistics
Because a supply chain can’t be sustainable unless it’s resilient, and it can’t be resilient unless it’s sustainable.

If your safety metrics are improving, are your people actually safer? Or are you just getting better at measuring the wrong things?
In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by John Dony, CEO and co-founder of the What Works Institute, and Mike Swain, Technical Enablement Manager at Evotix, to unpack a stubborn problem hiding in plain sight: why serious injuries and fatalities remain frustratingly hard to reduce, even as traditional safety metrics appear to improve. In a world of tighter regulation, more fragile operating models, and rising scrutiny across global supply chains, this is a resilience issue, a risk issue, and very much a leadership issue.
We dig into why lagging indicators can create a false sense of control, and why better reporting can actually be a sign that the truth is finally surfacing. You’ll hear how Mike saw incident reporting jump by 800% after better systems were introduced, and why that was good news, not bad. We also break down why the classic safety triangle often fails to predict serious harm, especially in complex supply chains shaped by contractors, seasonal labour, handoffs, and fragmented accountability.
We also explore where AI, data, visibility, and governance genuinely add value, and where hype still outruns reality. You might be surprised to learn that one of the sharpest lines in the episode is John’s view that if organisations want AI to work, they need a time machine to go back and get their data right first.
🎙️ Listen now to hear how John Dony, What Works Institute, and Evotix are rethinking supply chain resilience, safety, risk, and data from the ground up.

The shipping industry is the backbone of international trade, contributing to the globalisation and development of the world, but it’s the shipping people who makes the world go around.
This is where you meet the maritime professionals, strong characters with an interesting background.
Plugged In: How Shore Power Is Cleaning Up Our Ports
In this episode, we dig into shore power—the system that lets docked ships plug into port power rather than burning fuel on board. This simple switch reduces fuel use, drastically cuts air pollution, and helps port cities enforce anti-idling laws.
Listen to Maria Bos, CEO of Plug, a professional operator focusing on stable, easy-to-use shore power installations. Maria has extensive experience in innovation, digitalisation, and strategy across the financial and renewable energy sectors. Plug is an Eviny-owned shore power company.

What if the biggest climate lever in fashion isn’t better materials, but simply wearing clothes longer?
The fashion industry accounts for roughly 10% of global carbon emissions and 20% of industrial water pollution. In this episode of Climate Confident, I’m joined by Phoebe Tan, co-founder of Taelor, a menswear rental subscription service using AI-driven styling and real-world garment data to rethink how we consume clothing. The challenge isn’t just fabric choice. It’s overproduction, underutilisation, and a system optimised for churn instead of longevity.
We dig into how rental models can increase garment utilisation and reduce emissions by extending lifecycle wear. You’ll hear why durability data, wear rates, damage rates, wash cycles, may be more powerful than sustainability marketing. Phoebe explains how Taelor feeds performance insights back to brands, effectively becoming a live testing lab for quality and circularity. And we explore a hard truth: convenience often drives behaviour change faster than climate messaging ever will.
If net zero requires rethinking consumption systems, fashion is a revealing case study. This isn’t about trends. It’s about utilisation density, supply chain feedback loops, and whether circular fashion can scale beyond a niche audience.
🎙️ Listen now to hear how Phoebe Tan and Taelor are challenging overproduction and pushing practical decarbonisation in climate tech and the energy transition.

ClearTech Loop is a fast, focused podcast delivering sharp, soundbite-ready insights on what’s next in cybersecurity, cloud, and AI. Hosted by Jo Peterson, Chief Analyst at ClearTech Research, each 10-minute episode explores today’s most pressing tech and risk issues through a business-focused lens.
Whether it’s CISOs rethinking cyber strategy or AI reshaping risk governance, ClearTech Loop brings clarity to a shifting landscape—built for tech leaders who don’t have time for fluff.
We cut through hype. We rethink assumptions. We keep you in the loop.
In this episode of the ClearTech Loop podcast, Jo Peterson sits down with Gerry Gadoury to talk about what AI security leadership actually requires as the threat landscape changes faster and the business pressure around AI keeps rising.
This is not a conversation about one more security tool. Gerry brings the discussion back to risk judgment, executive alignment, and the human side of security leadership. As AI lowers the barrier for attackers and accelerates the pace of change, security leaders need to focus on real risk, not theoretical panic, while helping the business make better decisions under pressure.
