Cut Through the Noise with Dave Turano Dave Turano

Jay Trivedi, CEO of Uphams Community Care, was a latch key kid raised in Medford, MA by parents that emigrated from India in 1973 with only $8 to their name. His Mom and Dad were highly educated, but their degrees from India didn't quite translate when they came to the US. Nevertheless, his dad was able to build a career in Psychiatry, while his Mom pursued her path in Anesthesiology. From the get go, Jay had an interest in medicine. He wanted to be a Neurologist, but since his grades didn't quite cut it, he worked as an EMT, a professor and researcher, all while taking classes at night to get his MBA. He joined UCC in 2004 as the Director of Operations and today he is the second CEO in the company's 53 year history. Hear Jay's perspectives on how funding, talent shortages and the cost of real estate is impacting the quality of healthcare in our underserved communities. This episode drops tomorrow morning on...

Welcome to Cut Through the Noise, bringing you the truth behind the headlines in business and current events, Hosted by Dave Turano 'When I got out of college, the job market was horrendous and I didn't know what I wanted to do. For a year, I applied to every job on the planet and saved up a stack of rejection letters from all off them' So what did Tom Hannigan and his Criminal Justice degree do after he graduated from St. Anselm College? He worked in a warehouse, and then as a security guard, and finally as a claims adjuster. A few years later, his buddy got him an interview at EMC for a sales job. Tom had not heard of EMC at at the time, but he took the interview anyway. And? He fell short... His buddy shared the following feedback when it was over... 'They said you were pretty mediocre...'  Thankfully for Tom, EMC gave him a second chance. 'I was at the right place at the right time and blessed to be molded by them' Tom put in the work and rose through the ranks at EMC for the next 16 years.  Today, he sits atop ServiceNow Americas - a company that he's watched grow from $400 Million and 1000 employees to $10 Billion and 23,000 employees since he joined ten years ago. How? 'We have the best people and the best people always win' Listen to this upbeat conversation about having fun with people that you like and trust. 'Nothing ever came easy to me. I wasn't a great athlete nor the best student, but I've always loved being part of a team.'  Tom Hannigan found his dream job  And he'd be the first one to tell you that he got it with a little help from his friends.  This episode drops on 5/28.  Apple Podcasts:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cut-through-the-noise-with-dave-turano/id1466812912 Spotify:  https://open.spotify.com/show/5KrU7tS8QMSpgYiMAtxByV?si=dcd88d8e429449e0 Amazon Music:   @servicenow @dell @stanselmscollege #emc #ai #businesstransformation #selling #hiring #onboarding #relationships #people #friends #fun #hardwork #preparation #golf #braintree #data #capecod #warehouse #claimsadjuster @libertymutual

Like many children born into military families, Renee Viens moved a lot when she was a child. After her parents divorced when she was thirteen, Renee stepped up to help her Mom. If something needed to get done - she figured it out. 'I was a little Mom' Renee became an adult an early age; taking on housekeeping duties, meal prep and caring for her younger sister. Renee learned the value of anticipation, risk management and consequential thinking well before she went to college. These same skills still serve her today as an Executive Assistant, Coach and Mentor.   'I've made art form out of living around other people for their convenience,' as a behind the scenes support system, organizer and copilot, which is why she is able to successfully support many talented professionals of all levels as they navigate their careers. 'Executive Assistants put so much into the things that we do - We are our jobs. We are kind of married to our work - The people we support are always in our brain.' Please take the time to listen to Renee's insights on mentorship, coaching and what it is like to be inside the mind of an Executive. She was put here to do this work! https://reneeviens.com/

Welcome to Cut Through the Noise, bringing you the truth behind the headlines in business and current events, Hosted by Dave Turano. Not many people have the courage to walk away from the security of a great job, especially when they love what they do. But that's s exactly what Liam Martin did. After fifteen years in broadcast television; the last four as morning anchor at WBZ Boston; Liam said goodbye to explore a new venture in the private sector. Martin partnered up with Jackie Bruno and Rachel Robbins at Newsmaker Marketing; a Public Relations firm that helps its clients tell their stories through video, social media marketing, and by helping them to get hits on the news! It's been six weeks since he made the announcement and he has no regrets at all! 'What it really boiled down to was my mental health, and wanting to be the husband and dad that I want to be,' is what Liam expressed to me when I asked him why he decided to do this. About a year into working the morning shift, he knew something wasn't right... Getting up at 2:15 AM each day was taking a toll on him...fog-brain, depression, and anxiety had set in, only exacerbating some of the mental health challenges that he had experienced as a child. Thankfully, with the support of his family, friends and regular therapy, he is working to incorporate several routines that have helped him to feel a little better. You can hear what Liam's routines are by subscribing to Cut Through the Noise on Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music or YouTube. Hope you enjoy this conversation. I know that I did!

Long time friend & fellow Stonehill College grad, Scott Dussault, joined me this week to talk start-ups, technology, people, communication and phony phone calls!

Scott received his Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Stonehill College and was presented with the Gold Medal by the Massachusetts Board of Public Accountancy for receiving the highest score in the state in the May 1993 CPA exam. From childhood to present day, Scott has a laundry list of impressive accomplishments, but when all is said and done, he is likely to go down in history as the greatest prank phone caller of all time! This was a fun conversation!
