When you talk to an old friend/client and two hours later you see they've taken your advice and posted something new on LinkedIn. Boom. #KellyeMedia

I see a lot of folks saying, "at that price why not just buy a car?" Well, according to NerdWallet (URL below) the cost of owning a car is just north of $700 a month (and that doesn't include if you have to pay for monthly parking). So, this is actually a pretty brilliant idea from Lyft . Especially if you live in an urban environment. Not to mention how this perfectly fits the strategic shift to self-driving cars. …see more

I can honestly say I would not be where I am today without the mentorship of a certain woman (whom shall remain nameless as she is rather private). She is easily one of the smartest people I've ever met and a continuing font of knowledge. Not to mention all the amazing women I've been privileged to know and work with over the years. I look forward to helping the world evolve into the kind of place  Marianne Griebler  so aptly describes here. …see more

"There's no such thing as 'just a janitor' when you believe you're going to be the best."  Excellent read from The Hustle  on how a janitor's pride of work enabled him to pitch his idea for Flamin' Hot Cheetos and how he went on to become a VP at the company. …see more

Junk emails are the bane of my life. I suspect the same may be true for some of you too... I’m not sure what algorithms they are using to target me based upon today’s crop of spam but I’d like to go on the record just to say... - I don’t have the desire to own a Donald Trump ‘commemorative’ gold coin - I have no need for erectile dysfunction medication (not yet at least) - a girlfriend who is a Farmer would be lovely I’m sure but I’m in a relationship (NB. verification of the previous response can be supplied if necessary) - if I had tinnitus I’d ask my Doctor about it (and if I couldn’t hear her reply, then maybe I’d sign up) - even if I believed the ‘Japanese carb trick’ worked I’m actually very happy with my huge thighs That is all. #emailmarketing #junkmail #spammers …see more

"One commonality of great thinkers, CEOs, and entrepreneurs throughout history is that they see reality on a deeper level. This helps them figuratively play chess while everyone else plays checkers."

"Female employees are now facing a new threat to their careers in the post #metoo era. Their male bosses are avoiding 1:1 time with them, for fear of how being alone with a woman will look." https://lnkd.in/eqCWbJD #KellyeMedia #gender #work #leadership …see more

Here's a fabulous story about a guy who made a strategic #career decision to move back to get closer to his true goals. Because he joined the right company - one with a #culture that supports and not fears its #talent - it paid off big for everyone. #work https://lnkd.in/dDcCj2K …see more

Sadly, I'm not surprised by this. But recruiters, you're missing out if you allow this kind of bias so early in the recruiting process. #recruiting #gender https://lnkd.in/e3N8KmR

This is an interesting question. I went back and forth with it when I worked for companies because I worked with some great people who I wanted to engage with outside the workplace. This piece is good because first it asks, SHOULD employees and bosses be friends, and provides the advantages and disadvantages. …see more

This piece contains the exact same advice I gave to my audience when I spoke at a recent marketing workshop. If you want to successfully pitch the media these are excellent steps to take.

Spent the past few days building my #brainpower around the most urgent #globalhealth issues related to #COVID19 . Thanks to Pathfinder International and Women in Global Health for convening a discussion about the need for women’s leadership in policy development and #coronavirus response. Next, The Aspen Institute ’s webinar, led by Alice Lin Fabiano of Johnson & Johnson #GlobalHealth gave me some terrific insights into the additional challenges faced by #nurses and #midwives during the pandemic, and featured one of my favorite people, 2019 Aspen Healthy Communities Fellow Jennie Joseph of #CommonSenseChildbirth in Orlando. Finally, it felt like a 4 am family reunion this morning as I joined the #Nairobi -based AMREF webinar about covering #thecoronavirus on the African continent. Big thanks to Lizz Ntonjira, DipCIPR for coordinating the discussion led by Dr. Githinji Gitahi of #AMREF and featuring Anne Mawathe , BBC News Africa’s Health Editor Verah Vashti Okeyo , #globalhealth reporter for Nation Media Group and @Sikopo Arthur of SABC .

On this #InternationalDayOfTheMidwife , I’ll be featuring marvelous #midwives and #reproductivejustice warriors I have met in recent years. Thought I’d flip the script by starting with John Lazame Tindanbil, a trained #nurse and #publichealth practitioner working to provide quality #reproductivehealthcare , including #safeabortion services across #Ghana . Watch him describe his vision during The Aspen Institute ’s 2020 New Voices Fellowship training workshop in #Nairobi back in February. #AspenNewVoices #globalhealth #maternalhealth #midwivessavelives #midwifery #SRHR #Africa …see more
