Media CEOs are too focused on streaming. The more significant challenges and opportunities are with AI. Media can and must own AI. To do that we need a new mindset. Check out my latest post. #ai #mediaandai #writersstrike #mediaandentertainment

Almost isn’t a word for the ambitious. We prefer great or perfect. Yet there are costs to this mentality. Trying to be perfect can stifle our ambitions if we’re not careful. It’s time we revisit almost. Check out my latest post. #almostisgoodenough

The titans of media will gather in Sun Valley in a few weeks. It’s the ultimate hot stove for deal making. Should Bob Iger pull the trigger on a blockbuster ESPN/Hulu trade? Check out my latest blog post. #tradingespn #espnforhulu #sportsmedia

The sad irony of living with a plethora of communication options is more and more of our texts, emails and calls go unanswered. Ghosting is a nightmare, but it shouldn't be. Check out my latest blog posts. #ghosting #jobseeker #corporateculture

College is the prerequisite to success. Universities make a lot of money trading on our expectations as employers. But are we getting our money's worth? Check out my latest blog. #collegecosts #marketingcareers #firstjobs https://t.co/7YUTUqB45j

There's a lot of BS these days around the WFH/RTO debate. Flexible work is not one of the problems facing companies today, it's part of the solution. Check out my latest blog post. #wfh #rto #futureofwork #hybridwork https://t.co/GRQIvX8rGg

Freebird and Dark Side turned 50 this year. The music couldn't be more different, but the anniversary is reminder of what real genius looks like, and what we're losing in the digital age. Check out my latest blog. #freebird #darksideofmoon #genius https://t.co/1GrnEjNbgb

Dealing with grief and loss is not something we like to talk about. That's Ivan Maisel's book "I Keep Trying To Catch His Eye" is so important and worth reading. Check out my latest post. #bookrecommendations #dealingwithgrief #mentalhealth https://t.co/HEDJVaD5K3

How much severance did you, or would you, get? It’s nothing compared to your CEO. The disparity of risk is a huge issue we don’t talk enough about. There is a solution. Check out my latest blog. #oneyearseverance #medialayoffs #ceopay https://t.co/lF109FEAsX

Good, fast, cheap - pick two. It's an old saying in business. But in today's streaming world consumers actually can get all three, which poses big challenges for media companies. Check out my latest blog. #streaming #FAST #media https://t.co/GHPB6so19Y

Layoffs are everywhere. All of us know people who have lost a job recently. The question is what can each of us do to help those looking for the next thing. Check out my latest blog. #networking #playitforward #helpingothers https://t.co/hw2AQQMrvr

Hollywood and major publishers are flooding the market with re-makes. What made the classics great was they were fresh and new. We need less recycling of the old and more risk taking. Check out my latest blog. #streaming #peaktv #mediabusiness https://t.co/1HSbx8VuCo

Andrew Cuomo used to say "write it down" all the time when I worked for him years ago. It turned out to be much more valuable advice than I ever imagined. Check out my latest blog. #writing #lifelessons https://t.co/onJLMvSEl2

Don Ohlmeyer famously said "the answer to all your questions is money" when talking about the sports business. That's a sad commentary. It's time to do something about it. Check out my latest blog. #sportsbusiness #sportsmedia https://t.co/gB80kZwESm
