This one has been a long time in organizing due to the busy nature of my friend the one & only Geospatial Marketer, Elaine Ball. She is a hard woman to hold down for more than 5 min. Born in the cathedral city of Wakefield known for its Corn, coal & textiles, Elaine spent time growing up in Scotland & Singapore. Known best for her marketing & get kids into survey initiatives, Elaine has carved a niche within the Geospatial Industry.. With a Surveyor dad, who was a hydrographic & mining surveyor come inventor, he introduced the Ball family to the world of surveying, scanning & a life of overachieving.. With a background in manufacturing of laser survey equipment sold to multiple industries including; Mining, Quarry, Oil & Gas, Aviation, Transportation, Forestry and Surveying. You name it; she markets it. Elaine is the creator and visionary of Elaine Ball Ltd, a global business and marketing evangelist for the Geospatial Industry.   Her aim is to raise the standards within the Geospatial Industry Globally by giving surveyors through to manufacturers a dedicated resource for business, sales, marketing and strategic communications while encouraging and exciting the next generation of surveyors. An animal lover, she wanted to be a horse rider growing up. Not quite where she is now, but on her little farm she has sheep, chickens & dogs while the horses are not too far from her..  Besides farm life, Elaine loves a good challenge competing in triathlons… so take from me she is completely crazy.. probably while we get along so well.. In her own words, She is one part marketer, one part biz development, one part strategic thinker & one part superhero..  You can find Elaine on: LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/elaineballgeo/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/geospatialmarketer/ Website: https://www.elaineball.co.uk/ You can contact me at: https://www.petacox.com  Podcast Support Defining Boundaries: https://www.patreon.com/PetaCox @definingboundaries https://www.instagram.com/definingboundaries/?hl=en  @surveygeekgirl https://www.instagram.com/surveygeekgirl/?hl=en  https://www.linkedin.com/in/peta-cox Music by Paul Greene https://www.instagram.com/greenepaul/ Red Shelf Records/Sounds Delicious Australia https://www.instagram.com/soundsdeliciousaustralia/

In this episode of Work Worth Doing, Peta sits down with Josh Stone, engineer turned business owner turned coach to talk honestly about the state of our industry and what it really takes to build sustainable, people-centred consultancies. From the “race to the bottom” in fees to burnout, leadership, culture, and redefining self-worth, Josh brings real insight shaped by decades of experience across engineering, surveying, planning, and architecture.

Together, we explore how professionals can reclaim their value, set healthier boundaries, build stronger teams, and create businesses that support both their people and their purpose. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, undervalued, or stuck in old patterns, this conversation offers clarity, practical tools, and a reminder that meaningful change starts with speaking up and backing yourself


Josh has a podcast called The IGNITE Podcast with Josh Stone

This one’s got HEART.
In Episode 266 of The Geoholics, we sit down with Dustin Gardner, PLS—a guy who somehow combined American literature, math, criminal justice, surveying, fatherhood, service, and storytelling into one damn good life.
From San Diego roots to EV infrastructure projects…From survey outreach and historical preservation to mentoring foster youth…From fishing with his son to writing books that challenge how we think about purpose…
Dustin is living proof that surveying isn’t just lines, points, and coordinates—it’s context, character, and contribution.
We talk career moments that make you stop and say “I belong here”, why teaching the next generation matters, how storytelling and surveying are basically cousins, and what it means to build a legacy that goes way beyond the job title.
This episode will:-Inspire you-Ground you-Remind you why you got into this profession-And probably make you call a mentor you haven’t talked to in a while
Hit play. Trust us. 
Music by Waylon Jennings!

Continuing to ask the question “What is Surveying?”, this episode of “Surveyor Says! The NSPS Podcast” finds us chasing down the original geospatial “Deadhead” Dave Doyle, our favorite retired NGS Chief Geodetic Surveyor. We caught up with Dave between his speaking engagements and monument hunting trips to discuss our topic and provide his perspective of surveying through the evolution of geodesy becoming an important part of positioning. He shared his story of how he was introduced to surveying (Thank you, Uncle Sam!), his early involvement with developing the NAD83 framework, and how important the proper understanding of GPS metadata is to the surveyor. Dave also highlights the importance of geospatial data by the surveyor for collaboration with the GIS community.

Thanks for tuning into this next installment of our “What is Surveying” series with another great viewpoint of the profession. We will continue to bring you those perspectives in future episodes of “Surveyor Says!” The NSPS Podcast.

Welcome to “Surveyor Says! The NSPS Podcast” and our conversation with Connie Barrett, a professional surveyor in California who also paints still life portraits in watercolors. She recently talked with Tim Burch to discuss her path into surveying (thanks to her grandfather!), getting acclimated to life here in the US versus her childhood in Yugoslavia (present day Croatia), and pursuing his professional license. Connie talks about her early love for art and how she “rediscovered” her passion while using painting for a relaxing hobby. Her artwork has been recognized throughout social media and now has presented her with the challenge of a backlog of commission work. Check out Connie’s work on many of the surveyor group pages on various platform to see why her paintings are in demand.

Connie is another great example of a positive role model for surveyors of all ages. We are very appreciative for her time to be here with us on “Surveyor Says!” and look forward to more great painting in the future.

Once again, “Surveyor Says!” The NSPS Podcast connects with our fellow surveying contemporaries from around the globe with this week’s guest, Michelle Blicavs, CEO, Association of Consulting Surveyors based in Sydney, Australia. Tim Burch caught up with Michelle to discuss the current climate for surveying in Australia, how one becomes a registered surveyor, and how technical surveyors are a large part of the future of the profession. She also explained how specialization of the profession is becoming more important with the transition to digital cadasters and remote sensing data collection. Michelle explained the role of her organization in the promotion of the profession, including career fairs in high schools. She also stressed that providing business-related seminars to registered surveyors has been key in increasing their knowledge charging what their services are truly worth. 

The big takeaway from this conversation is that surveying in the US is not unique with our struggles to find the next generation of surveyors, but we can learn from each other on how to promote the profession in a positive manner. Thanks for listening to “Surveyor Says!” The NSPS Podcast.
