• Texas business leader uses spotlight interview to advocate for child protection and local engagement

Texas, US, 24th December 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Bruce Allen Craig, CEO and President of Big Easy Entertainment, is using a newly published spotlight interview to raise awareness about community responsibility, child protection, and the role individuals play in creating safer, stronger local environments.

In the interview, Craig reflects on more than 40 years in business, from real estate development to entertainment leadership, and speaks openly about why giving back has become a core priority.

“Success means very little if you’re not giving something back,” Craig said. “If you’re building businesses but ignoring the people around you, you’re missing the point.”

Advocating for Child Protection

Craig’s message is closely tied to his recent participation in the 2025 Dancing with the Stars event benefiting the Center for Child Protection. The organisation serves as the first stop for children in Travis County suspected of being victims of abuse.

According to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, more than 60,000 confirmed cases of child abuse and neglect are reported statewide each year. Nationally, the CDC estimates that 1 in 7 children experience abuse or neglect annually.

“These numbers aren’t abstract,” Craig said. “They represent real children who need safety and dignity.”

During his visit to the Center, Craig spent time in the “kids’ closet,” which provides clothing and essentials to children in crisis.

“Something as simple as a clean shirt can help a child feel human again,” he said. “That matters more than people realise.”

Business Leadership Beyond Profit

In the interview, Craig also connects his business philosophy to community action. After decades of navigating market cycles, he believes adaptability and responsibility go hand in hand.

“When markets shift, you can’t freeze,” Craig said. “The same applies to communities. If something needs attention, you step up.”

Small actions, he notes, have real impact. Studies show that for every $100 spent at a local business, about $68 stays in the local economy, compared to less than half when spent with national chains.

“Communities don’t thrive by accident,” Craig said. “They thrive because people choose to participate.”

A Call to Individual Action

Rather than asking for grand gestures, Craig encourages simple, personal steps:

• Support local charities that work directly with children and families
  

• Volunteer time, skills, or services
  

• Donate essentials like clothing and school supplies
  

• Stay informed and speak up when community needs are visible
  

“You don’t need a title or a platform,” Craig said. “You just need to care enough to act.”

• Biotech leader urges professionals to slow down, ask better questions, and build systems that help ideas succeed

Victoria, Australia, 24th December 2025, ZEXPRWIRE, Following his recent in-depth interview feature, physician-scientist and biotechnology leader Dr Leigh Beveridge (Australia) is raising awareness around a critical issue facing science, medicine, and business today: the growing gap between strong ideas and the systems needed to turn them into real-world impact.

Drawing on his career in hematology, immunology, and global drug development, Dr Beveridge is advocating for clearer thinking, better communication, and more inclusive leadership as practical tools for progress.

“Most good ideas don’t fail because they’re wrong,” Dr Beveridge said. “They fail because they’re rushed, poorly explained, or not supported by the right systems.”

Why This Matters Now

According to global industry data, nearly 90% of drug development programs fail before approval, often due to issues unrelated to the underlying science, such as unclear strategy, misaligned teams, or weak decision-making frameworks. At the same time, the World Health Organization reports rising burnout across healthcare and STEM fields, with more than 40% of professionals citing lack of clarity and constant urgency as major stress drivers.

Dr Beveridge believes these problems are connected.

“When priorities are unclear, everything feels urgent,” he said. “That’s when people burn out and good thinking disappears.”

Advocating for Better Communication and Curiosity

A central theme of the interview was the importance of asking better questions and making complex work easier to understand. Research from the Australian Academy of Science shows that 65% of Australians feel overwhelmed by medical and scientific information, even as innovation accelerates.

“If people can’t follow the thinking, they can’t trust the outcome,” Dr Beveridge explained. “Clarity is not about simplifying the science. It’s about respecting the audience.”

He credits his early experiences in teaching, mentoring, and community radio with shaping this belief. “Those settings taught me that listening is as important as explaining,” he said.

Inclusion as a Practical Advantage

Dr Beveridge also highlighted the role of inclusion in improving decision-making. Government data shows that leadership teams in STEM remain largely homogeneous, despite evidence that diverse teams are up to 35% more likely to outperform in complex problem-solving environments.

“When teams look the same, blind spots grow,” he said. “Different perspectives aren’t a distraction. They’re a safeguard.”

A Call to Action: What Individuals Can Do

Rather than focusing on institutional reform alone, Dr Beveridge encourages individuals to take ownership of their thinking and habits:

• Slow down before deciding.
  “If something feels confusing, that’s a signal to pause, not push.”
  

• Write things down.
  Writing clarifies thinking and exposes weak assumptions.
  

• Create a daily learning window.
  Even 20 minutes of focused learning builds long-term clarity.
  

• Explain ideas simply.
  If it can’t be explained clearly, it isn’t ready yet.
  

• Invite different viewpoints.
  Better ideas emerge when more voices are involved.
  

“These are small actions,” Dr Beveridge said. “But repeated daily, they change how work feels and how outcomes look.”
