From a breakdown perspective I adore this. From a design perspective I love this. From a (visual) brand positioning perspective, I worry about it occupying a remarkably similar visual space to NatWest, in icon, typography, palette, even apparent content imagery. Hoping the expanded language will help differentiate. Kudos on the update though; absolutely an improvement.

Such a powerful interview! Holding space for everyone MUST include making space for yourself!
Today is the first day I can finally say, this is me. For as long as you’ve known me, I’ve spent every day on a mission to uplift your voices as a part of my ultimate vision of unifying the world. Over the course of this past year, it hit me that spreading this mission didn’t always mean that I was the one living it – well at least, not fully. So many young people have found their voices and learned to use them by being part of our community, which is what I’m most proud of. At the same time, I’ve started to feel a sense of inauthenticity come over me. For as long as I can remember, I thought unifying the world meant only creating space for other voices to be heard, and that there was never a need or a reason to amplify my own voice or my own opinions. My favorite questions to ask people on our show and in conversation is “where does your point of view come from?” and “what does the world get wrong about you?” This is such a powerful way to understand the real facets of why someone believes what they believe and how they arrived at this very moment in their lives. It dawned on me that I’ve never opened up about that question myself...until now. For the first time ever, the tables have turned and my dear friend Alyson Stoner sat down with me in our POVz studio to create the space for me to tell my story. It can be scary to be fully yourself, but vulnerability is far more powerful than any of us think and can truly help us all overcome division, simply by listening. Conversations like this that get beneath the surface and allow for the time and space to create true understanding is what leads to unity. Here’s to a new chapter of unifying the world, from the inside, out.
What do "It's a Wonderful Life," "Goonies," and "Empire Records," all have in common? They all have a strong preservation plot line! On a recent episode of PreserveCast, I sat down with the newest member of the Preservation Maryland team, Christiana Limniatis, to talk about a list she compiled of some of the all-time greatest 'preservation movies.' What is one of your favorite movies with a preservation storyline?
In the journey towards redemption and societal reintegration, supporting individuals with criminal convictions to make a fresh start is a mission close to my heart, as I personally understand the profound challenges and complexities involved. Our promotional video delves into the critical importance of offering a second chance to those determined to turn their lives around. It underscores the transformative power of empathy, structured support, and the removal of societal barriers that often hinder reintegration. By embracing our comprehensive approach to disclosures which include vocational training, ongoing peer mentor support, and community engagement, we can create a pathway that not only empowers individuals to rebuild their lives but also enhances societal well-being. We also work to support the open minded people that are willing to offer opportunities to those that are working hard to earn them. This video captures why we do what we do, because, we recognise the potential for change and growth within every individual, regardless of their past. Get involved in this vital conversation so we can close the revolving doors and build a future where everyone has the opportunity to contribute positively to society🩵 https://lnkd.in/e3xc6_Tf

I had the pleasure of viewing Arthur Musah's insightful and moving documentary "Brief Tender Light" at the 2023 Newburyport Documentary Film Festival last fall. And I recently had the additional pleasure of talking to Arthur about the film, which will be broadcast nationally on 1/15 as part of the POV series on PBS, and his own experience as an international student studying at MIT. Please enjoy our chat and his very personal film. Brian Geldin #documentaryfilm #pbs #africa #internationalstudents #MIT
📰 🗞❔information sharing for those in the #Chicago region and the #arts / #artsandculture field as a potential case study. here's to hoping this change in the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events will not be disruptive to organizations or artists they support. . 🤔my viewpoint: as these things go, whether government or other organizations, ideally transparency and clear communication leads the conversation upfront so people aren't wondering why it occurred and how this affects them, especially in the area of public service. . #themoreyouknow #governmentaffairs . 📑Read on here https://lnkd.in/ekbuT-Aa
