Thanks to Gary Kenji McMath , š Adam Leidhecker, and Marc Rƶger for the additional eyes on this. #netflix #tesla #strategy #businessstrategies #businessstrategy #business ā¦see more
It is important to remember that marketing you like and marketing that is effective can often be two different things. Best not to fall into the "why aren't we doing stuff like that?" trap and do the research so do what you need to be doing instead. #marketing #advertising #marketingcopy #marketingandadvertising #marketingcontent #marketingadvice #marketing101 ā¦see more
Over the last year or two, anytime I would bring up Pinterest as a marketing channel to explore Iāve been met with curious glances. But here you have a site where Pinners are either actively shopping or actively showing future purchase intent (explicitly and implicitly). If your target audience is on Pinterest, it would seem like a no brainer. Another great thing they do is share knowledge with advertisers like trends based on data from their site. And now theyāre sharing this thoughtful doc which helps to lay out how to think about marketing during/post-pandemic and how to plan for it. Again, based on data. So well done. #pinterestmarketing #pinterest #marketing #marketingchannels #pandemic #coronavirus https://lnkd.in/gx4cwAE ā¦see more

Just a simple reminder, stop thinking of marketing as purely what the company wants and start looking it from the POV of what the consumer needs. Once you see it through that lens, you will be amazed at how many companies get it wrong. #marketing #advertising #copywriting #brand #brandmarketing ā¦see more
Um, Duh. Bias affects so many things in the workplace: talent retention, engagement, discretionary effort, innovation, creativity, performance - all of which are attached to profit and loss.
A mea culpa/piece of advice because it's important to rememberĀ reactions are just as important as actions.Ā A few weeks ago, I had a run-in in a Facebook Group I belonged to that is an extension of a newsletter that I subscribe to (and have from its beginning - I'm an avid reader and advocate). An admin in the group made a slightly snide comment about something I shared. My reaction? I deleted the share, left the group, and wrote a thinly veiled, yet nasty ābusiness lessonā piece on Medium about the encounter. To be clear, the comment by the admin shouldnāt have happened and he has since apologized. But what I did in the wake of that shouldnāt have happened either. At Netflix , if you had an issue with someone and complained to your boss about them, the immediate question was, āWhat did they say when you spoke to them about it?ā This was a not-so-subtle way to say ādeal with your situation properly, like an adult.ā In hindsight, I realize that I failed to live up to that goal. What I should have done was reach out, told him how his comments came across and given him a chance to react. Instead I ātook my toys and went home.ā Not a good look. So, donāt react immediately. Think, then address the situation at the right level. Youāll be glad you did. #lessonsĀ #communicationĀ #eq ā¦see more

An old African proverb I learned from my dad says, āif a child is not embraced by a village, it will burn the village to feel its warmth. ā As humans, above all, most of us just want to be loved, seen, heard, and accepted. Take a moment to read about what white privilege is, and isnāt. It is not an assumption that all white people have an easy life, but a recognition that white people are culturally embraced in ways people of color are not #blacklivesmatter ā¦see more

Loved this Fast Company piece from Chanel Cathey on why microagressions are actually a major problem for Black women in corporate America, why it's still important to be on guard, even in these more "enlightened" times, and why companies need to do the internal work to move beyond convenient and easy PR opps posting messages of solidarity for black lives on social media. #gender #race #KellyeMedia #talentmanagement #work #career ā¦see more

There are some dos and donāts to discussing #racism at #work with love and support for those carrying the burden. But it's also important to understand that sometimes, we don't want to talk about these things extensively. We live it, and being able to work in peace is important too. #blacklivesmatter #communication #KellyeMedia ā¦see more
