“I had the pleasure of working with Nate early on in his career and I just knew he was special and incredibly talented. Nate was one of the most dedicated, focused and inspiring team member. What I remember most about him was this determined hunger to learn, to soak up everything he could like a sponge and then put it back into the team or client he was working for. He never backed down from a challenge, project or new pitch. His creativity and ability to tackle multi-layered projects is inspiring and fun to witness. I’m really happy to say I got to be a small part of his journey. Anyone would be lucky to have him. ”

How can you develop adaptability when working with a challenging client?
Communication issues is almost always at the root of the problem. Everyone can do things right but if feedback isn't communicated correctly, it can all fall apart. The important thing to do is be honest about the concerns, try to understand the needs and wants, and establish clear next steps to fixing the problem with a definitive timeline.

I'm a bit late to the discussion on IGN Entertainment's acquisition of the Gamer Network. Seeing IGN Entertainment acquire the Gamer Network hits close to home for me. I grew up getting my gaming news and guides from mid-level publishers like Eurogamer and VG247. This consolidation trend is troubling, especially considering the layoffs and reduced editorial diversity that often follow. With my experience at ReedPOP, a subsidiary of Reed Exhibitions, I have insider knowledge of the dynamics at play. Reed should have invested more in these publishers because they didn't fit into the broader B2B portfolio strategy. This oversight has contributed to the consolidation we're witnessing now, where a few major entities control most of the gaming news landscape, pushing out smaller, independent voices. #GamingNews #IndustryTrends #Consolidation https://lnkd.in/eEDx-bfJ
