🤝Reflecting on this great event yesterday hosted by @LWVDayton , I'm reminded of the power of our own stories and the role our truth plays in championing a more democratic society. Congratulations to all the honorees who continue to lead by example! #WomensHistoryMonth
Really enjoyed this conversation with @twomicsup 🔊 Thank you for the invitation and interest in the work of The Averity Group! #PublicRelations #communications #Politics linkedin.com/posts/activity…
Really proud of The Averity Group and what we've achieved together. Excited for what's to come! linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
She's better at Philanthropy than 90% of Philanthropic orgs, and not just because of the amounts... but the democratic nature of her investment selection, geographic non bias, and not killing her grantees with endless forms for a few bucks. Godspeed. apnews.com/article/macken…
It was great to represent The Averity Group last week at the 2024 Ohio Minority Supplier Development Council with the @DaytonChamber A privilege to meet so many passionate about partnership and brought fresh perspectives. #OMSDCAnnualMeeting #diversesupplier #Publicaffairs
Wonderful time celebrating the 2024 Women of Influence and supporting @ywcadayton I love being surrounded by so many remarkable people who are challenging norms and driving meaningful impact in community and beyond! #WOI24 #WomenHistoryMonth #WomenEmpowerment
AI has the potential to transform the communications industry for the better, but we must adopt a nuanced strategic approach that acknowledges both the promises and pitfalls of the technology. #communicationiskey #Misinformation #politics linkedin.com/pulse/ais-impa…
2024 might be the year of cost reduction, at least for the first half. However, there may be a silver lining. The G-20 Summit this week suggests that a "soft landing" for the global economy is possible and not just for the U.S. #Economy bloomberg.com/news/articles/… via @economics
Broaden #Understanding. When understanding #SocietalNeeds aligns with business relationships, organizations can align with critically important trends. It’s an intersection of work that leads to success and positive multi-stakeholder #Impact. ssir.org/articles/entry…
Resist the allure of the status quo, especially when championed by those who fear change without reason. Focus on understanding the true value of innovation and societal advancement. #branding #reputation fastcompany.com/91036256/what-…
The only thing for sure we know about #Communication is that we tend to get it wrong." - Michael Ray Smith If you're aiming for innovative, #Positive outcomes, your message needs to come from a place of optimism. Operate from a #Position of positive resolve.
@Theholisticpsyc “Begin again” I hear this from my meditation teacher every day I was annoyed at first. It meant I had failed, gone back to daydreaming Now I realize “begin again” is liberating You can ALWAYS start over, at any point, regardless of your age This is freedom
Gen Z workers are more likely to live near their family than other generations in the U.S. The older you are, the less likely you are to live near the town where you grew up, with baby boomers the most likely to live far from their hometowns. #trends linkedin.com/posts/linkedin…
Get in the pattern of telling the truth. Even when it's uncomfortable. Even when you feel your heart racing. The truth might hurt someone else's feelings. It might change how they see you. But integrity is the beginning of an emotionally healthy life.
Last year was one of labor unrest in the U.S. We saw the number of strikes increase - there were the big ones, autoworkers and the actors/writers. But, the vast majority of work stoppages happened in the service sector. axios.com/2024/02/21/us-…
What caught my attention here is the shift in #Trust towards "someone like me" - peers and coworkers gaining equal trust as experts. It's a reminder to create meaningful, two-way conversations both internally and externally. #Strategy #Communications ragan.com/combating-glob…
I agree with @lulumeservey. #CorporateBoards need #Communications expertise. “Because your job, as a board, is governance. It's accountability. It's strategic planning. You can't do all three of those things if you can't communicate that to people.” prnewsonline.com/communications…
Metrics define the ability to fine-tune your #PR strategies and connect PR efforts with overarching company goals. Data allows us to deeply understand our work and adjust it to increase impact, so tracking these core #KPIs is a must. #Strategy

@DonnicaHS Overdependence on AI could hinder human creativity and critical thinking skills. It's vital to maintain a balance between human judgment and AI assistance.
@DonnicaHS 100% agreed. Communication is a learned skill that makes a massive difference in workplace dynamics. Mastering it is completely worth it.

If engineers are techno-solutionists then policy people are regulation-solutionists. I have to work between these worlds daily and I can confidently report that both are prone to hubris. But both are also idealists! You believe in the tools you have, I guess.
@DonnicaHS Absolutely, Donnica. Leading with #empathy is also essential.

#Storytelling creates meaning for the people we're communicating with. There are times when reciting facts or data points is necessary, but usually crafting a narrative that connects people is the best route. #leadership #connection
One of the most compelling things about #Storytelling is its ability to function as a tool. Depending on the tale, you can build trust, teach, or inspire. That's why storytelling is an indispensable skill for any leader. #Goal hbr.org/2023/09/5-type…

Happiness isn’t eating plump figs in the south of France, hallucinating at Burning Man, binge-watching Netflix, or playing a good round of golf. Happiness is the pursuit of purpose, done individually and with a community:
