    The Root of Decision Making

    When it comes to thinking about climate change and renewable energy, many people try to make as many environmentally friendly decisions as possible. With Earth Day coming up, what changes can you make? Researchers, like our guest, are considering how decisions are made–and if the process people use to make a decision can be influenced to select a more environmentally friendly decision about a product or service. Choosing an environmentally friendly electric plan is one way of helping keep the Earth green. But what if people select a convenient default choice rather than exploring a more environmentally friendly (and possibly cheaper) option? Crystal Reeck, assistant professor of marketing and associate director of the Center for Applied Research in Decision Making, tells listeners about the three different ways people make decisions. We’ll learn if there is a way to change a person’s decision mode—and ultimately impact the choice that they make.

    Transforming the Business of Healthcare

    Healthcare is changing, and not just because of the pandemic. For years, there has been a growing trend of consumerism in healthcare.  As patients become more likely to visit urgent care than an ER, and big retail giants are poised to offer primary care alongside frozen pizza and sweatpants, the business of healthcare is heading towards a big transformation.  In this episode of Catalyst, Kevin Mahoney, MBA ’15, DBA ’18 and CEO of the University of Pennsylvania Health System, shares his view of how hospitals are changing. He sheds light on how consumerism is affecting the patient experience, what it means for the cost of healthcare and where the future might lead.  Find out more details at www.fox.temple.edu/catalyst.  Key Links Learn more about Kevin Mahoney Kevin B.

    Make a paws-itive impact

    Donating money and volunteering at nonprofits or your favorite charity are wonderful ways to give back to your community, especially during the holiday season. But combining your passions, professional expertise and education? That is paws-atively extraordinary.     Through her experiences at the Fox School, Sarah Bergstein got to do all of that and help animals in need at Morris Animal Refuge in the process. After adopting two rescue cats, Bergstein wanted to do more—so she decided to use her unique work experience in the U.S. Air Force and education to approach volunteering through a business lens with Fox Board Fellows.    In this episode of Catalyst, Bergstein takes us through her journey of leveraging the community engagement experience she gained as a public affairs officer to help her during her MBA program and eventually as a member of the board at her favorite nonprofit. She will offer tips on how anyone can get involved and start creating real change in their communities.   Find out more details at www.fox.temple.edu/catalyst.    Key Links Fox Board Fellows Philly’s own chonky cat may soon have a forever home.

    NIL: It’s a game-changer

    After decades of saying no to college athletes looking to earn a few dollars, the NCAA gave the go-ahead for athletes to make money from the use of their name, image and likeness (NIL). And it’s a game-changer—and not just for the top athletes at big Division I colleges and universities.    Many social media-savvy college athletes are already securing revenue streams via both big and small business sponsorships. In this episode, Thilo Kunkel, associate professor at the School of Sport, Tourism and Hospitality Management and director of the Sport Industry Research Center, discusses why he believes there is potential for student athletes of all genders and at all division levels to earn money by building a positive personal brand.  Find out more details at www.fox.temple.edu/catalyst.    Key Links Thilo Kunkel Sport Industry Research Center There is no Nil in NIL Exploring athlete brand image development on social media New laws set to level collegiate playing field OwlScoop podcast with Thilo Kunkel   ----- Follow us on Facebook LinkedIn Twitter Instagram ----- Subscribe to our newsletter.

    Coming out at work

    According to a recent report by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, 46% of LGBTQIA+ Americans remain closeted in the workplace.    Workers surveyed cited a variety of reasons for not coming out to colleagues: 38% said they hid their sexuality because of the possibility of being stereotyped, 36% said they didn’t want to make people feel uncomfortable, and 31% said they worried about the possibility of losing connections or relationships with co-workers. With more companies than ever celebrating months like Pride and touting diversity in their mission statements, what explains this staggering disconnect? In this episode, Jeffrey Boles, associate professor at the Fox School of Business, talks about authenticity at work, and how companies can create policies and platforms in order to be truly inclusive.  Key Links Jeffrey Boles On the 'business of pride' Far-reaching opportunities for Fox School’s Center for Executive Education Nearly 50% of LGBTQ Americans are in the closet at work   ----- Follow us on Facebook LinkedIn Twitter Instagram ----- Subscribe to our newsletter.

    Branding the Beat

    The world of Hip Hop is full of references. Listen to lyrics from Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar or Cardi B and hear plenty of allusions to events, people and products.    But how do those references make their way into the cultural consciousness of listeners? And even more so, how can music change consumer behavior?    In this episode of Catalyst, we speak with Marcus Collins, DBA ‘18, distinguished marketing professional, researcher, educator and Hip Hop fan. Collins walks us through his research about the intersection of marketing and music, where he dives into “social contagion” within the Hip Hop community.    Collins studies how brands are mentioned, adopted and spread through the community of Hip Hop. He explains that through social contagion, Hip Hop both influences and reflects the attitudes and behaviors of fans. He lets marketers in on lessons learned—and what precautions to take—to help their brands and products “go viral.”   Collins also speaks to his own experience as both a marketer and academic, and how diverse perspectives are necessary to shift the attitudes and assumptions that are reflective of a historically privileged worldview.     Key Links Bridging the academic/practitioner gap: A conversation with Marcus Collins Exploring social contagion within a tribe called hip hop: Mechanisms of evaluation and legitimation Fox Executive DBA Program    ----- Follow us on Facebook LinkedIn Twitter Instagram ----- Subscribe to our newsletter.
