SLOcast

We're pleased to announce SLOcast, a monthly audio project brought to you by the U.S. Embassy in Slovenia. Each episode of SLOcast starts with a single question, posed to people throughout Slovenia. The result is a podcast packed with stories, music, interviews, and more. You'll be amazed by where just one question can take us.

13 What does good government look like to you? English version

  • 13 What does good government look like to you? English version
  • Around the world, particularly inside Europe and the United States, the faith of citizens in their governments has drastically decreased. We stumbled upon a recent Delo Stik poll in Slovenia which found that a majority of Slovenes have lost trust in parliamentary democracy—and though most don't see another alternative, more than a quarter of citizens remain interested in other systems of government. We felt compelled to ask how that situation could be made better. This month on SLOcast we set out to explore the theme of good governance: how can people's trust be restored in states.

    Join us today as we examine this controversial topic by asking experts in the field their thoughts on corruption, transparency, and responsibility. Who knows, between them all we might just come across upon the secret to better governance. We talked to Nataša Briški, Simona Habič and Vita Habjan. Tune in!

13 Kaj je za vas dobra in učinkovita vlada ter dobro, učinkovito vodenje?

  • 13 Kaj je za vas dobra in učinkovita vlada ter dobro, učinkovito vodenje?
  • Po vsem svetu, predvsem pa v Evropi in v Združenih državah Amerike, se je zaupanje državljanov v njihove vlade občutno zmanjšalo. V nedavni raziskavi javnega mnenja Delo Stik so rezultati pokazali, da je večina Slovencev izgubila zaupanje v parlamentarno demokracijo. Večina ne vidi nobene alternative. Več kot četrtina pa razmišlja o možnostih drugačne politične ureditve. Zanimalo nas je, kako bi se lahko položaj izboljšal.

    Ta mesec v SLOcast-u raziskujemo temo dobrega upravljanja in kako bi lahko izgubljeno zaupanje v državo povrnili. Pridružite se nam v raziskovanju te kontroverzne teme. Po mnenju o korupciji, transparentnosti in odgovornosti smo povprašali strokovnjake s tega področja. Kdo ve, morda pa se z njihovo pomočjo dokopljemo do skrivnosti boljšega vodenja in upravljanja. Govorili smo z Natašo Briški, Simono Habič in Vito Habjan. Prisluhnite!

  • For today’s episode, we set out to discover what makes entrepreneurs successful and what lessons they had to offer us. We talked to Matevž Slokar, the owner of DaMa restaurant, and the co-creator of S AcademY, Til Lajovic and Jan Pinterič, the leaders of the Young Executives Society of Slovenia.

    Each of our contributors this week shared a powerful passion for creating, innovating, and reshaping the future of business inside Slovenia. As they opened up, each also offered great advice for how to become a young innovator. Still to come: changing youth through food and social entrepreneurship; making Slovenia a more prosperous country; and embracing failure. Tune in!

  • V današnji oddaji smo se podali na raziskovanje kaj je tisto kar naredi podjetnika uspešnega in kakšne izkušnje lahko delijo z nami. Pogovarjali smo se z Matevžem Slokarjem, lastnikom restavracije Dama v Ajdovščini in so-ustanoviteljem S Akademije, ter Janom Pinteričem in Tilom Lajovicem iz Združenja YES, Young Executive Society.

    Vsem sodelujočim v današnji oddaji je skupna močna strast, ki jih žene k ustvarjanju, inovacijam in spreminjanju prihodnosti podjetništva v Sloveniji. V pogovoru z njimi izvemo marsikateri nasvet kako postati mladi inovator. V nadaljevanju pa: spreminjanje mladih s pomočjo hrane in socialnega podjetništva; ustvarjanje boljše prihodnosti in sprejemanje neuspehov kot nekaj kar lahko koristi za naprej. Prisluhnite!
