Change Fatigue Sales Angle

I read this month a chief exec with consulting vested interest expound with exclamation an intriguing stat. The number of 'strategic change' programs a typical large firm ceo currently deals with at any one snapshot in time stands at 3∙2. That figure feeling a touch abstract? Pre-2020 most companies

Absurdist Morally Corrupt Zoomscapes

Gianni Infantino's FIFA Who cares about votes when you can just applaud World Cup hosts?🤪 pic.twitter.com/uf7AbjKfpU — DW Sports (@dw_sports) December 12, 2024 Maybe it's because I'm not part of the global Davos elite. I've seen a total absence of any praise whatsoever for this week's rubber

Good versus Bad Chart

I haven't sought out CNN in a long while. It's not that it's partial. It's that it so vehemently claims to be impartial. Yes there are loonies at the horseshoe fringes all gung-ho for their cheerleading saviours of choice. Yet I suspect the (silent) majority switch off from such flagrant

Pace Blueprint

Not just one for cricket lovers. Although fast-bowling enthusiasts will doubtless lap this up. After stumbling in India and Pakistan, the English cricket Test setup has gone through a minor rebuild these past twelve months. All the more important given the next away Ashes is only a year away. With

Pop Promo Handcam Meeting Visuals

Somehow an indie-ish music video entered my feeds. A track with initial promise, unfulfilled in delivery. Still, I watched the retro-style home video cassette vibe.

AI Proof Pitching

12-Minute Baller Chunks Tops

There's many a stipulation over max timeslots before our buyers' (or colleagues') attention evaporates. Durations beyond which you must not stray when performing certain tasks. Showing a particular slide. Speaking on video without letting other participants do something themselves. Snappy video call lengths. Each shorter than you'd imagine. With a

Majoritise Support Minoritise Opposition

What a repressive construct. As far removed from proper 'critical thinking' and actual 'inclusion' as you can get. Above, there's a 2⅓-minute chunk from my mark of the 'tomorrows papers' show the world was waiting for. Where would we be without these three stalwarts and many of their crew.

Happy Birthday Winston

Not many people get to lead defeat of amassed oppressive murderous authoritarians. Winston Churchill one rare example. Who today would turn 150. In commemoration there's plenty of pieces citing the best of his masterful speeches, glorious trove of rejoinders and remarkable lateral thinking problem solving creativity. Despite all the usual

Pop Promos Still Liking Bland Meeting Room Settings

I'd not heard of this act either. Yet this latest track did have the kind of Jamie T first album vibe I so loved two decades back. As the latest in my occasional series on this trope, the video for Just Call Me has quite the conceit. Everyone our hero
