A bi-annual poll of U.S. marketing leaders found that social media investments have declined to their lowest level in seven years. An analysis of poll data suggests that lack of strategy fit, weak returns, and new competition from retail media may help explain this dip.

Transcript Hi there, it’s Peter Winick. I’m the founder and CEO at Thought Leadership Leverage, and here’s the idea that I wanted to share with you today. And that’s this: in most businesses, in most industries, you don’t get to ship anything until it’s a finished product, right? Imagine you ordered some furniture or other goods from Amazon, and it came, but it’s not finished.

2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up. Thought diversity - the fuel for new ideas, fresh perspectives, and disruptive innovation - is more than a buzzword. It's a survival strategy. And if you’re not building it into your workplace culture right now , you’re heading for trouble.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

However, she also said that we shouldn’t call out more than two hours early, which seemed odd to me.

The world of work has fundamentally changed. The series of waves that the pandemic began have rippled through the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, the Great Regret, and other eloquent phrases that boil down to the same thing: people aren’t engaged at work or enabled to perform at their best.
