The Curse of the Metaverse

In the hours between when the “60 Minutes” segment aired featuring Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen and the start of when Facebook’s all-day outage drummed up constant snark and speculation, I couldn’t sleep. Maybe there was too much on my mind at 4:30am. Maybe it was the change of seasons throwing me off, as I […]

A Conventional Confessional

I opened my closet door, and I was staring inside. A moment of paralysis set in. I’ve had occasions this year and last to wear a blazer and a button-down — not many, but I’ve dusted off a few of the hanging garments. This time, though, I was picking out clothes ahead of attending […]

Journey > Destination

“Are we there yet?” Traveling through the South with my seven-year-old daughter this summer, she didn’t ask the question that often.

I wrote about some of the destination highlights last week, but as […]

We’re Bouncing into Graceland

“The Mississippi Delta was shining like a National guitar.“ Before Labor Day, I spent the better part of a week traveling down South with my seven-year-old daughter. We masked up, flew into Memphis, and drove through Arkansas after a quick Mississippi detour. While I was slow to respond to emails during that stretch, and I […]

What Marketers Can Learn from Afghanistan

This week, I’d like to address a serious subject. It might not be one you’d expect to see covered here, but it’s important to review nonetheless. Given the United States of America’s ignominious defeat in Afghanistan, following two decades of foreign policy fiascos, we have to think about the consequences. I don’t mean consequences […]

Get Out of Here

Are you feeling out of it at all? These days, I’m often thinking about what we are out of. Out of Office Remember when Out of Office was one of those phrases that sparked joy? What ritual of corporate life short of a promotion felt better than penning an Out of Office reply? But […]

Brand and Deliver

There’s something about a new brand that is energizing in a way that seems hard to explain, especially when you have something to do with it. I’ve worked on a few branding projects, but until this spring and summer, I never spent so much time working on a new brand for myself. Fortunately, I […]
