    So, what about this model makes it a utopian model? I understand the need for a collective body to work together, but I am still confused about the model itself. I feel like I kept hearing references to a "model," but what is the model exactly? You explained what the model should do but not what the model itself is -- what exactly is sustainable about it? You did not deliberately address a sustainability problem that the model would satisfy. What overarching problem does the utopian model (what is this model?) solve? I just need a bit more clarity and specificity.

    Chris, As a young IE this was a very thought-provoking and interesting conversation around the industry, leadership and scaling from a manufacturing perspective. I've only served in the chemical blending, filling, and packaging industry and hearing similar conversations from an alcoholic beverage manufacturers viewpoint was insightful. I hope to see more conversations similar to this one especially from different industries and viewpoints. Perhaps non-profits and academics? Best of luck with the podcast and I hope to see more awesome content! I would recommend reaching out to some professional engineering orgs, they will have some great content and potential guests for your show.

  • @ivanhenderson31
    @ivanhenderson31 Před 2 lety

    Feedback: The conversation was half theory and felt like both participants were beating around the bush [DEI for example]. The later half of the episode became more concrete and thought-provoking. It would be good to gauge the conversation and make sure it doesn't get to the level that it did when the host was just saying "yeah" for 5-10 minutes. It got boring and I wish the host would have butted in when this high-level theory grandiose monologue started. Otherwise I think this podcast has potential - best of luck!

Which soft starter for a 3-ton air conditioner would be best there are several on the market. I like the idea of integrating a vfd into my system but I don't know how.
