The offshored roles will include human resources, finance, supply chain and other administrative functions. The number of jobs impacted is unclear, according to the health system's chief administrative officer, who said it will be a small percentage of its domestic workforce. Mercy Health hopes the move will maximize operational efficiencies. 5) Growth fund with Cincinnati ties raises $238M O.H.I.O Fund raised $238 million while making 19 investments across the state, two in Greater Cincinnati companies, Watkins reports. Headed by Mike Venerable and Jill Meyer, the fund raised money from more than 106 investors including high-net-worth individuals, institutions and family offices of wealthy individuals, financial institutions, foundations and other corporations. This day in history 1942: The Manhattan Project commences, marking the start of the large-scale effort to develop an atomic bomb. What I'm reading "The Uptown Local" by Cory Leadbeater What I'm listening to Chappell Roan's new single "The Subway" "August" by Flipturn What I'm watching "The Summer I Turned Pretty" on Amazon Prime Video I've also been watching a lot of movies, including newer releases like "Jurassic World: Rebirth," "Freakier Friday," "Happy Gilmore 2," "Final Destination Bloodlines," "Sinners," the live action "Lilo & Stitch" and "Nonnas." I saw most in theaters with only two Netflix exceptions. My AMC Stubs A-List has been put to good use over the last few months. Your favorite of all time For the past year, I've felt like I was in the worst music drought ever. I find myself recycling the same playlists, same albums, same artists over and over again. I think I know the words to every song I have ever heard at this point. We've had a few music conversations in the Courier newsroom, notably around the time when "A Complete Unknown," the Bob Dylan biopic came out and a few editors and reporters declared their dislike for Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and other similar artists. I won't name names to save my colleagues the grief. I'd say I consume more music than the average listener. I listen to everything. From pop, rock, indie and rap to country, metal, folk, jazz and every sub-genre in between. Looking at my most recent Spotify plays, artists include Lorde, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, St. Vincent, Norah Jones, Mac DeMarco, Doechii, Modern Baseball, Taylor Swift, Turnstile, Steely Dan and Third Eye Blind. While all of these artists are fabulous, I need new stuff. So my question to you, Business Courier readers, is what is your favorite album of all time? Or, is there an artist or song you have on repeat right now? I'm open to any and all genres from any decade. Email me at lschwartz@
