I’ve been starting to feel the impact of years and years of relationship building, showing up for one another and “healing our polarities” as Tanisha Douglas says.
I have learned so much over the past 8 years of building SheEO™ / Coralus including patience to wait for the timing to be right. Lorraine thank you for bringing us all together to dream in the future we all know is possible. 🥰🥰🙏🙏

During the meeting, Stephen Bottomley highlighted a significant case where a contract that was set up on WhatsApp was deemed valid because the parties involved used a 👍 emoji as a form of acceptance. This case serves as a reminder that even seemingly informal methods of communication can carry legal consequences. It emphasizes the importance of using proper and formal channels when dealing with important agreements to avoid any ambiguity or misunderstandings. Networking isn't just for getting new business. Thanks, Paul B.. #networking#businessadvice#surrey

Tomorrow is the 250th Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party and it's been a thrill to partner with Avalara on their reenactment in Boston Harbor as well as extensive research exploring America's increasingly complex relationship with tax.
Today, Avalara CEO Scott McFarlane shared his thoughts in Fortune on this 250-year long tax evolution and how it's impacting businesses today (hint: it's not necessarily for the better).

Tomorrow is the 250th Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, and we’re reliving our own harbor tea dump reenactment.
We brought a few colonial guests to join Scott McFarlane, Scott Peterson, Jayme Fishman, and Avalara on the Boston Harbor. Check out the recap of our recent event in Boston Harbor.
Have you met Lucas Fonseca with Language Matters?
Earlier this week, Lucas visited Ferguson to talk about his business, which offers cultural coaching and consulting services as well as language tutoring and translation services. For marketers like me, it's great to lean on someone like Lucas to help with communicating.
If you are looking for someone to help you bridge the language and culture gaps, Lucas is your person!
Thank you Jaclyn Goldsborough for inviting me to meet your team at Ferguson! I enjoyed our conversation and I look forward to collaborating with you and your team in the near future!
Wise words as always from my good friend and President at 72andSunny in Sydney, Ross Berthinussen, about the merits of having super experienced strategic and creative folk in your agency. Something we also see a lot of value in at the Orange Panther Collective.
Some tangible examples of this:
* Smaller teams are more closely involved in the development of the work. This makes communication, collaboration and focus within the team, and client partners, far easier to foster.
* The flatter agency structure in many ways ‘runs itself’, as experienced staff are capable of directing their own output and managing their own time – quality control is baked into the model.
* A leaner and flatter agency structure fosters a more democratic agency. Everyone is sufficiently experienced and respected to have a voice in the agency’s work, and its future. This encourages bravery and innovation.
* It makes projects easier to manage: fewer stakeholders and process stage gates ensure that work can be swiftly ideated and produced.
* It removes ‘fat’ from timelines and budgets, ensuring that projects are run more efficiently for clients.
* Having senior brains on the business with a broader understanding of business and marketing (and a more finely tuned ‘gut feel’) also leads to faster, more effective work.
This by no means says we don’t enjoy working with and helping shape young teams too, there is a time and place for everyone.
As I said, wise words Rossi 🙌

🌟 Canto SKO left an indelible mark on my career journey, standing out as THE best #SKO experience. It wasn't just about enduring a typical PowerPoint parade and being talked at; it was an immersive blend of reward, inspiration, and genuine camaraderie. No checkboxes here—just real, impactful team building in one luxurious and stunning location.
The schedule struck the perfect balance, allowing us ample time for both learning and leisure. The cuisine whispered, "You're worth it," echoing the sentiment of appreciation from our leaders throughout our time in Austin, Texas. We departed feeling more than just colleagues; we were a tight knit family with a shared purpose.
This photo, with our stunning daily view, captures the magic of unity and achievement. It exemplifies how investing in company culture and morale yields tremendous results. This is what effective team building looks like—more than just a checkbox, it's about delivering tangible outcomes and fostering genuine connection. What a phenomenal time indeed! #Canto SKO #TeamBuilding#CompanyCulture#bestcompanytoworkfor#leadershiplessons
