Facebook is getting into the dating game. Deepfakes are getting better and better. Put them both together and they present a potential reality as sinister as it is deceitful. Imagine online dating in a world replete with deepfakes. Think about this...

When leaders, co-workers, and employees feel appreciated, you improve staff morale, create a positive workplace, and increase employee engagement. And the best way to express your gratitude in the workplace starts with asking others their preferences so you can better relate to one another and deepen your relationships. #leadership #appreciation #gratitude …see more

I owe my life to the professionals behind life sciences that created the chemotherapy treatment that pushed me into remission. I received over $200k in treatment for FREE thanks to the pharma-support communities that value life over profit. One thing that many people don't know is the support programs that offer co-pay assistance to warriors of chronic illness and incurable disease. Something I wouldn't have had the option of securing without the assistance provided by "Big Pharma" ❤ This is why I'm so excited to speak in front of the Women in Biohealth of Madison, Wisconsin about the importance of authenticity as we celebrate their efforts in their career so far... I certainly hope that you can attend and join us for this event as we celebrate the professionals in biohealth for their dedication to finding cures for ailments. From one warrior to another, the future is going to be an incredible place for our children with scientists that have a hunger for discovery, dedicated to a healthier future. Thank you for your efforts. How has your life been impacted by professionals in healthcare and biology? #biohealth #science #health #chantelshares …see more

I may be wrong, but I really think we are obsessed with the idea that this bizarre enforced interim is especially indicative of the future. We have a more organic future, enriched by new tech but where people behave as they wish, with the more typical constraints of life on show. Will be interesting to see. I just don't think people didn't realize the internet existed before. …see more

One of my most rewarding experiences at Studio71, LP happened a couple weeks ago when I was able to give a presentation to the whole office on social media. I was able to explain not only the company's social strategy, but also my personal journey these past few years on Linkedin and how employees at the company could optimize their profiles to benefit both the company and their personal brands. So few companies realize just how important their employee's personal brands can be to closing deals and fostering new opportunities for the company. Glad to know that my advice worked for people like Stephen Perlstein and others! #corporateculture #marketing #socialmedia #linkedin …see more

As much as we moan about younger people in the workforce & the perception of their selfishness, the reality is that modern businesses would do far better if it worked around people rather than fit them into spaces. Find what people do best, fan their passions, nurture curiosity, work around their strengths, rather than fit people into roles. Am I being really naive?

Increasingly I feel like what holds a lot of people back is a lack of imagination and surprisingly little curiosity. In the modern age there are fewer barriers than ever to progress, it's this that holds us back.
