Relationships in business have always mattered, maybe even more so now, as organizations drive to innovate and engage. Finding the right connections can impact what happens to ideas. Molly Pedemonte, a business consultant with a high aptitude for strategic change, serves as a TPG Consulting Director. She works with companies to identify what’s working and what isn’t. During her career journey, she’s had many relationships that have nurtured her along the way.

Relationships are a lot about sharing knowledge, especially between generations. Pedemonte calls this “tribal knowledge.” She said, “Transferring tribal knowledge in the workplace moves information from generation to generation.”

On her path to learning and sharing, Pedemonte talked about some interesting relationships she’s formed. “People come in and out of your life when you least expect it,” she said. One such person was her former high school English teacher. They’ve now become peers and friends, and she appreciates what she’s gained from working with her.

“I have a lifetime of knowledge, but my lifetime hasn’t been that long. I depend on others to share knowledge with me because I don’t know what I don’t know. People have invested with me, so I’m ready to invest in others,” Pedemonte stated.

Relationship building is critical to success in business. Being relationship-focused allows anyone to grow and evolve. Thinking together often lets ideas bloom, and possibilities seem endless. Being relationship focused.

ISE 2026 drew a record 92,170 visitors to its largest show floor yet

ISE 2026 drew a record 92,170 visitors and 1,751 exhibitors to Fira Barcelona Gran Via on Feb. 3-6, 2026, according to Commercial Integrator. AV over IP was the common thread in the product news.

  • 02ISE 2026's technology zones grouped digital signage, unified communications, smart building technology and residential tech together, a read on how organizers see the buyer shopping.
  • 03PlexusAV showing IPMX-enabled networked ceiling speakers alongside encoders and decoders indicates the standard is reaching audio endpoints as well as video distribution, which widens what a single certified network can carry.

Enterprises still put one or two people in meeting rooms built for eight

Enterprises still put one or two people in meeting rooms built for eight

At Enterprise Connect 2026 in Las Vegas, Cisco's Rich Bayes said offices still put one or two people in conference rooms built for eight. Enterprise Connect's Eric Krapf heard the same complaint across the March show. The pattern points to too few small video rooms, not bad hardware, and IT/AV pros are now focusing more on which platforms run in rooms than on camera and microphone choices, according to Enterprise Connect.

  • 01Standardized room builds move the buying decision away from camera and microphone models and toward which platforms run in the room and whether to allow BYOD, according to consultant Andy Howard of Howard Associates.
  • 02If occupancy data shows large rooms routinely hosting one or two people, the evidence from Enterprise Connect 2026 points to adding small video-enabled spaces rather than putting new gear in the big rooms.
  • 03Multi-camera AI directors have grown from two front-of-room cameras to more than six across four walls, per Gartner's Christopher Trueman in No Jitter; David Danto's next step is microphones and cameras hidden in ceiling tiles and picture frames.
