LinkedIn is getting to be a noisy place 🙉 To help you separate the wheat from the chaff, I wanted to highlight just some folks I follow who consistently deliver excellent value. Sarah Johnston - If you are looking for a job, Sarah’s content is some of the best! I’m not in the job market and I still find her lens and perspectives to be beyond refreshing. Sarah Evans - Not many people understand PR for the digital age like Sarah and no one I know shares as much value as she does in that realm. Elizabeth Marshall - Elizabeth is the thought leader’s leader. Many of the top authors and experts I know rely on her guidance to grow their platform. Rohit Bhargava - Trendsetter and go-better, as publisher and author, Rohit is a champion for many. His insights are always on point. Pelpina Trip - If you use your phone to shoot videos and haven’t discovered Pelpina yet - you are welcome. She’s a goldmine or great information - all delivered with the best of Charles E. Gaudet II - Business strategist extraordinaire. Charlie and the team consistently share great tips on sales, marketing, and more. Chris Brogan - If you haven’t checked out Chris’ awesome shows, you are missing out. He always over-delivers. Who else do you think is making LinkedIn a better place? …see more

Love this cartoon from the New Yorker. Not only does it capture the fluidity of this generation-defining moment, but because it also uses the notion of an overlay to the new normal. As I've started to detail over the last few weeks, we do face a "new, new normal" -- that is, a post crisis landscape that retains some elements of the prior new normal and adds new and unusual realities. #economy #markets #coronavirus #covid109 #coovid #newyorker …see more

Over the last 10 years, I have tested over 150 digital health devices, including activity trackers, smartwatches, EEG headbands, portable ECGs and even medical tricoders. Because of this, I'm getting questions daily here on Linkedin and other channels about which digital health devices I use and would recommend for different purposes. In this infographic, we summarized all those devices that we have tested and had a positive experience with. With new and improved devices coming out every week, I'm sure we will have to keep updating this image. If you come across any new device or service that you find useful, please add it in a comment, so we can keep on testing the new ones! https://lnkd.in/e7sg8Vj #digitalhealth #futureofhealthcare #healthcare #healthtech #themedicalfuturist …see more

Check this really cool cartoon strip that captures the essence of what’s wrong with our approach to digital transformation. Digital is intrinsically part of the world we live in and operate our businesses in. It isn’t an adjacency and it’s not an optional part of our business strategy. Digital Transformation starts with the leadership understanding that change in the business needs to happen to be relevant in the current and evolving business environment. Transforming to be “relevant in a digital world” then requires the sponsorship and mandate from the board and leadership to make the required changes across the business’s go to market strategy and operating model and ways of working to drive this relevance.

Founders & CEOs - Many of you probably have already seen these advices from various venture funds by now, but I thought to share them here as well for the benefit of those who may not have seen these yet. Please read each article for much more in depth info; the gist of the advices are: 1) Assume meaningful drop in your revenues and top line growth for at least a few quarters to come unless you are in exceptional categories such as remote working technologies. 2) Cut down your expenses to increase your run rate. 3) Have policies for Working From Home and plans for how you will handle cases if your employees or executives end up being #COVID -19 positive. 4) Take actions fast and be decisive.

There are so many to-do list apps out there. Flashy apps that offer more features than you could ever use. Free apps that are so bare you wonder how they'd be helpful at all. And paid apps that look just right, but you're not sure it's worth paying the price just to find out. Wonder no more, zapier has put together a wonderful list of 40 best apps. https://lnkd.in/eE7DZv7 …see more

Back in 1947, when the legendary comic book writer Stan Lee was just starting his career, he published an article with advice on how to break into the industry. As part of his article, he shared several useful writing tips that happen to be applicable to any type of writing. I was surprised to find this article and thought I’d share what Stan Lee wrote about the craft of writing: #comics #comicbook #writing #writers …see more

In the last 2 years we made more than 30 interviews with companies committed to bring healthcare in the 21st century with technologies. We were curious how the medical community and/or the patients received their innovations – as we consider technology in itself a one-armed giant. It was an amazing experience to follow the cultural shift that digital health brings upon us.

I'm sure you feel anxiety like I do. My family has been practicing social distancing for 3 weeks; my job completely changed and might not even go back to normal ever; and I worry about my elderly relatives and friends and also those who struggle with chronic conditions and are at risk of getting infected. In these unprecedented times, I'm trying to get information from sources I know I can trust at least. In case you are looking for similar sources, here are some of those that I check daily. This is the most up-to-date database about cases per country: https://lnkd.in/gxA2SXg This is the most visual representation of the big picture (it helps me see the number of cases per day on the long-term): https://lnkd.in/g4twD6Z And I get my news from WHO: https://lnkd.in/gf2baWr I hope you will find these useful. #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #fromchancetochoice #COVID19 #COVID_19 #coronavirus …see more

Rich, 15 minute episode with Katrina Lake, Founder and CEO of Stitch Fix. She’s the youngest, female CEO of a public company who has built a unicorn. 👏🏻👏🏻 She shared great advices: 1) Culture is the way to motivate employees versus amount of $ raised or made. 2) Epiphany of having diverse minds in the room will result in best outcomes that’s bigger than sum of each. 2) It’s important to zoom out (especially as the founder) from the day-to-day and be more forward looking to prevent the crazy roller coaster feeling of the startups and entrepreneurship. 3) We should evolve quickly as employees, founders, and executives of fast growing companies as things change rapidly, so we need to make sure we love our jobs at any new stage of the company and put our best into it all the time to help the company wins. Thank you Katrina Lake for the awesome advices! We are proud of you and love what you’re doing! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 #thebestCEOs #femalefounders #stitc …see more

I featured this quote in my newsletter this week because it's laugh out loud funny and incredibly poignant.  (PS, get on the list https://lnkd.in/e9C4EKn ) "The American woman, if you go by commercials, is a bizarre creature. To write, she wants pink pens; to choose a soft drink, she wants to be assured she’ll be skinny afterward; when selecting makeup, she wants to create an entire new personality each time she applies lipstick; she considers cleaning floors a feminist, patriotic act akin to the work done by women who built American munitions during World War II — think of nearly every campaign Peggy Olson got stuck on. And, apparently, when a woman chooses to snack, she wants it Cheeto dust-free, library-quiet and compact enough to be tucked in a night-out-size clutch" - @ Heidi N.
