How much of your day do you think you spend on autopilot, doing habitual things you did yesterday and will likely repeat tomorrow?

"The reason you should care about the story of General Magic is that it involves something fundamental and that is: Failure isn’t the end, failure is actually the beginning… Did it fail? I mean, the company itself failed. The ideas didn’t fail. The people who worked there didn’t fail. So was it a failure?” Tom "Hersh" Hershenson , General Magic https://lnkd.in/gKU9Cua #innovation #GeneralMagic #tech #design …see more

Am LOVING this podcast interview with Kelly McGonnigal, author of The Joy of Movement who advises us to put on our favourite song and start dancing.

argument is: lower rates squeeze bank NIM & long term slowly erodes bank model in long run. recent analysis as per this article: no evidence that is the case in the face of low/negative rates in EU. there is also another argument: Lowe/negative rates distorts risk taking, risk, investments, and zombifies the economy. a quantitative analysis of bank lending yields a very limited picture. …see more

Happy birthday to the fab Martha Lane Fox 🎉 whom I was honoured to interview for Female Innovators at Work. "I learnt that even as an ancient modern historian and someone who didn’t really understand coding - understanding technology, and embedding it at the heart of everything that I was to do is, and was, phenomenal." #femalefounder #entrepreneur #startup …see more

Many cite the Industrial Revolution as proof we can easily transition to new tech. They seem to forget there were mass riots, deaths, and billions in damage. Today's tech will disrupt 3-4x faster/broader. Providing economic security will make us the wiser …see more

Let's play a game called "Is this a privacy concern, creepy marketing or hyper-targeted data win?" Our first contestant: Your smart thermometer, which could be telling Clorox whether or not to push ads for disinfecting wipes to your neighborhood based on your temperature. (See article.) The data used in this targeting led to a 22% increase in consumer interactions with Clorox’s disinfectant ads, and a 900% increase in red flags for me. I began my career marketing data to B2B co's. Individuals could opt-out of the database but they did not opt-in. It was just a fact of the business, technically legal and under CAN-SPAM compliance. The risk is on the customer who uses the data. In that regard, part of me loves to see targeting data used in a relevant way like this. But the consumer/skeptic in me knows that the mother using this Elmo-shaped thermometer had no idea her baby's temp was being broadcast (anonymously, but still) back to Kinsa, then sold to Clorox so they could sell 22% more wipes to her neighbors.

If you’re like me, you’re struggling to know what you can do to help effect change so that the systemic racism that exists and kills black people, ends. Luckily, I found this (not sure where) excellent spreadsheet by Tatum D. , Matt Herndon , and Jourdan Dorrell with tons of resources and reading. (thank you for compiling!) There is a lot get into but complex problems require understanding, context, and in some cases complex answers. #beantiracist #blacklivematter #justiceforgeorgefloyd …see more

I think this (and other moves) by Capital One is just brilliant. The creation of the Savor credit card is a perfect example of a company that would seem to have no way to create experiences outside of experiential marketing. But people who use the Savor self-identify as food and experience junkies. So the card is now part of their photos-of-food positing, dining experience. #cx #customerexperience #capitalone #brand #marketing #experientialretail …see more
