Originally posted on The Huffington Post. I don’t need to tell you that the world has seen its share of change lately. We used to embrace change and make it happen (which entails pretty much everything before Sept. 11, 2001). Then we watched it from the sidelines (the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, the various financial crises), [...]  Comments: Leave a comment May 26, 2010, 3:43 pm
Originally posted on eurorscgpr.com/blog. The European financial headlines have been nothing but bleak: defaults, a $1 trillion bailout, speculation that the euro might disappear, and discontent and strife in countries from Greece to Germany. The news is definitely not good, but the tone of the media messaging might be making it seem even worse. SmartMoney warned investors [...] Comments: Leave a comment April 15, 2010, 4:38 pm
Originally posted on The Huffington Post. “Keep the younger generation in the state, provide jobs for the population, send the illegal immigrants back to their countries. We need jobs to provide services to our citizens. With jobs, we can also sustain our present level of living, keep our roads in good repair. Stop the politics. Most [...] Comments: Leave a comment February 16, 2010, 9:15 pm
Originally posted on The Huffington Post. President Obama’s latest poll numbers may be decent—a New York Times/CBS News poll found that he has higher approval ratings than the GOP, and that more Americans blame Congress, George W. Bush and Wall Street for our problems than they do him—but we hoped for better than decent from this [...] Comments: Leave a comment February 15, 2010, 11:38 am
Originally posted on eurorscgpr.com/blog. Forget about the Hiltons (Paris and Perez, that is). Americans don’t have time anymore. They’re too busy looking closely and critically at public issues that affect them. A new study from Euro RSCG Worldwide reveals that people are losing interest in celebrities and paying more attention to serious matters such as the [...] Comments: Leave a comment January 18, 2010, 10:57 am
Originally posted on eurorscgpr.com/blog. A little over a year ago, I was arguing that Illinois was the new trend capital. Trendspotters like me had looked at New York and L.A. to death, and the time had come to look at the Midwest. Illinois is, after all, the state that gave us Oprah and Obama. Its residents [...] Comments: Leave a comment June 23, 2009, 2:46 pm
Originally posted on pnintelligentdialogue.com. Globalization has been the headline for years as it’s changed the face of communication, finance, business and society. But it’s not a stand-alone phenomenon; it’s totally dependent upon mobility. Constant movement from place to place has made the last few decades frenetic. In fact, we live in an era of supermobility. Crops are [...] Comments: Leave a comment June 23, 2009, 2:45 pm
Originally posted on pnintelligentdialogue.com. If you’ve watched “Mad Men” (and if you haven’t, get thee to a Netflix account), I’m certain you’ve been struck by the constant puffing away by nearly every single character. Can’t you just imagine the fictitious stench wafting through those sleek, sexy, uber-stylized Sterling Cooper offices? Yet while I wouldn’t know exactly how [...] Comments: Leave a comment April 23, 2009, 2:47 pm
Originally posted on pnintelligentdialogue.com. Online brand-bashing is a reality all companies face; just ask Domino’s. Companies can help guard against it by opening up an honest dialogue with consumers and by maintaining transparency, but if in fact they get hit, they had better react fast. I started this discussion among industry colleagues and consumers (we are all [...] Comments: Leave a comment February 24, 2009, 2:50 pm
Originally posted on pnintelligentdialogue.com. Since the World As We Knew It morphed from Dalí painting to disaster movie last year, there has been a subdued but detectable undertone to the ever-present anxiety. Though many people contemplate the future with fear and dread, a few are feeling excited. The stress is stimulating them, and I don’t mean government [...] Comments: Leave a comment |
