Only 12.6% Creative Directors globally are female ✋ Growing up I struggled to name any female creative role models in the industry. I'm sure they were there, but they were always a little bit harder to find. Directors of TV commercials or movies all seemed to be male. Award-winners: male. Agency CD's... male. Obviously I don't have a problem with all the talented creative men in the world, but it's true that you have to 'see it' to believe you can 'be it'. And what a shame it would be if many talented, young creative girls didn't pursue a creative career, simply because they didn't have role models. Not just for their own sense of purpose and job love. But for the positive impact their creativity could have on the world. I'd love for us to all share some love to inspiring female creatives. I'll go first: Jessica Walsh 🖤 For her eccentric, elaborate and hyper-real view of the world. I've always been fascinated by her satirical concepts, bold use of colour and extra-curricular initiative Ladies, Wine & Design Nisha Ganatra 🖤 Director of Bodyform's #WombStories (amongst other incredible films) and 1 of only 2 women to be ranked number 1 director globally by Cannes Kim Gehrig 🖤 Another show-stopping director. I am OBSESSED with her commercials. This Girl Can, Viva La Vulva, #Periodsomnia and stunning pieces for Apple Who are your female creative role models? Friends, colleagues or all-stars. Tag or mention them in the comments 🫶

How do you encourage conversation in your remote company? How do you make sure people have a chance to discuss topics that aren't just work? And why on earth am I sharing an article about Creed on LinkedIn? A couple weeks ago I did a category called "Bands you love to hate." I love doing things like this because it gives people a chance to open up, share, and engage with each other over a relatively unimportant topic. And don't worry, I myself pointed out how much I loved many of the bands in the round, including spending a good percentage of my sophomore year of high school listening to Creed. I loved hearing people talk about the songs they liked, the albums that meant something to them, and the overall agreement on how awkward high school was. And I can pretty much guarantee that these conversations continued. In fact, part of the reason I'm sharing this is because I can imagine someone posting it in their work slack channel along with a comment like "See, I told you they were cool!" When I explain what Anywhere League is about, it's hard to immediately recall anecdotes like this or describe what they mean to a company. But I see time and time again how conversations like this can create strong bonds amongst remote employees. Even if they have wildly different tastes in music. #employeeengagement #remotework #teambonding #virtualofficespace #teambuildingactivity

Let’s just remember - it’s not the AI tech that’s the real evil here. It’s the kind of human “being” that Altman has chosen to be. So much of what I wrote into popular sci-fi epics over the years now coming into play. The machines will get rid of us if we don’t act better. Be better humans, people! #bsg #cylons #scifi #ai #tech #terminator #ds9

Do you sheen or shine? A broadcaster’s mispronunciation on the radio this morning (juggernaut Far-East manufacturers looking at stock-market listing. You can probably guess) stuck in my ear, as always with the English there’s a slippery face between similar sounding words and meanings, But I couldn’t immediately put my finger on the difference between the two in the title. Or even if there was one. However a quick look beyond the surface is very revealing. Shines are sharp. Very polished. Highly reflective. Easy to see yourself in it. But shininess can also be a rather less than flattering term, as ’shiny’ people. Bubble-gummy. Overly optimistic. A bit, well, shiny. No particularily deep. Which s’fine. Shiny things catch the eye and bring a little joy when discovered (ask any magpie.) Sheeny, though, is a whole different thing. Sheen is duller somehow. More diffuse. Some would say subtler. It also feels more like something added than shine’s revealingness. To put a sheen on is polish in some obscuring effect. Discussing things a high-polish would (perhaps unfortunately reveal.) All this leads me back to the original aura confusion, and that Shein (pronounced, I think, ‘sheen’), which started life as the snappy-sounding ‘ZZKKO’. Three years later (in 2011), it had morphed into ‘SheInside’, which clearly wasn’t going to travel well. By 2019 the ‘-side’ was gone. Leaving us with the shiny shortened version. Seems like everyone (of a certain age) has taken a shine (or otherwise a sheen) to it. #shine #shein #sheen #language #pronuciation #brandnames #naming

Moving to another country splits your heart in half 💔. After a while, you become too foreign for the home you left, and too foreign for the home you found. It's a feeling of being unsettled, no matter how many years have passed by 🌍. Have you experienced this bittersweet struggle? How do you navigate the delicate balance of embracing a new culture while holding onto your roots? Share your stories and tips in the comments! #expatlife #foreigner #homeawayfromhome

Open Roles below, scroll down. The Oxford word of 2023 is Rizz. The word, a Gen Z creation derived from "charisma," went viral in June after actor Tom Holland — who has played Marvel's film Spider-Man since 2016 — admitted to having "no rizz whatsoever" in an interview. "Rizz”beat out "Swiftie" for the 2023 crown. Applying the words to your jobs search. Energy is infectious. If you bring it, the person who you are interviewing Will hopefully feel it and get excited to tell others about you. Just being a good candidate on paper and being prepared , is no longer enough. Bring your Rizz! The second place word was Swiftie. If you don’t bring the Rizz, you will be dismissed swiftie! 😉 Roles I have. https://lnkd.in/dfEcZt8y Reach out to these folks if interested Art Binder Assembly Global Associate Manager Programmatic https://lnkd.in/eeNY89z2 Joe Garbus  PVH Vice President External https://lnkd.in/eEKeVc-c Monique Manso Endeavor Sales Assistant https://lnkd.in/eRWHKHmt If these roles are not for you. 👏 Pay👏 It👏 Forward with a 👍🏻 Like🤝Share ♻ Repost or ⌨️ Comment so that your network can see them. #jobopportunities #nowhiring #jobadvice #wordoftheyear

Steven Galanis Cameo CEO & Co- Founder invests his valuable time to share wisdom with COSTA RICA'S CALL CENTER Following up leadership by example, the CEO starts the video strong with high energy and big smiles, "Hey, this is Steven Galanis from Cameo.

We have some serious talent as well. There is nothing better than a company that has solid footing and reputation. Steven has a proud grin as he backs up the solid track record of his creation, "Cameo is about 3 years old right now". Bottom line facts exhibit a strong foundation for Cameo. Plus, the ability to scale with Steven's specific type of guidance and structure is encouraged to fulfill requests of clients. The video clearly backs up the position on why Cameo has a successful CEO and keeps growing! Since Cameo has shown their classy office style and fun environment, Steven decided to comment on our Costa Rican Call Center culture. He has heard about or cool art deco building and neon marquees. The Cameo co- founder also admires our cool office environment by mentioning large collection of retro pinball machines for our employees on free play. Matching a tasty option for hungry staff, Steven talks about of authentic 1950's cafe as well. Knowing how important a company's image can be for visitors, CCC style of transportation is noted. Steven shows his persona via a small touch of envy, "The Mercedes limo for guests. I am pretty jealous".We are more than positive that Cameo's restored limo will be just as famous as it cruses the streets of CHI TOWN with your selected passengers. Steven Galanis ends the video by wanting to come and visit CCC. He is quoted by saying, " Hopefully, I will get the invite to Costa Rica one of these days. Have a great day!"  There is a VIP open invitation to visit sunny Costa Rica anytime my man. Pura Vida STEVEN! https://lnkd.in/ezjPJCZ6 https://lnkd.in/egYh2m4 COSTA RICA'S CALL CENTER FAN PAGE: https://lnkd.in/e2PtbTn

"A Spike Lee joint." "A Steven Spielberg film." "A film by Wes Anderson." These creators have cultivated a track record of expertise that gives them something more than a personal brand: it gives them authority. When they want a project, they're given carte blanche. When the film is promoted, their name carries it to market. They have loyal fans who will watch and re-watch anything they create. 🤔 When something gets published on your brand's website, who is the author? Your company? A content marketer? Or an expert? Is your brand being used to elevate a no-name author's personal brand, or are you able to attract creative and authoritative talent that elevates your company's brand? Just something to think about. PS - I was trying to think of female directors to include, and Greta Gerwig came to mind, but she's not getting this kind of promotion... yet. Barbie was so good. Let's get more female directors, please.
