Are you still waiting for things to go back to normal? Or are you making a renewed commitment to learning and possibility?
The pandemic has created a seismic shift (or gift) in perception. If you wore a face mask to work in 2019 you were sanding a table you crafted, conducting surgery, or robbing a bank. When 2020 started, masks were about hoarding and grasping at the illusion of control. If you wore one really early on in public, you may recall it making you less popular than scoring an early PS5.

For our clients, this approach takes guts and skill and hard work. Because they know their brand will only ever be what they invest in it.
It’s January, 2022. We need new, thoughtful, fact-based stories and leadership pretty desperately right now.
So what story are you telling yourself this year? And more importantly, what story are you telling everyone else?
Happy new you. Happy new year.
