And welcome to this edition of The Current Podcast. In honor of International Women's Day and Women's Month, we're highlighting powerhouse women in marketing who are making an impact in theirKat Vesce (00:17):Industries. For this episode, we're thrilled to be joined by Jenn Garbach, chief marketing officer at PNC Bank, where she's redefining how 160 year old financial institution connects with modern consumers.Ilyse Liffreing (00:28):Jenn and her team launched brilliantly Boring, a campaign that leans into humor, trust, and authenticity.Kat Vesce (00:34):We'll dive into the strategy behind the campaign, the results that made it a game changer, and how PNC is balancing modernization with legacy in an industry built on tradition.Ilyse Liffreing (00:44):Plus, we'll discuss Jenn's insights on leadership and empowering women in the industry. Let's get started. So Jenn, it's wonderful for you to join us today at our studio at the Female Quotient Lounge during South by Southwest.Jenn Garbach (01:00):Thank you so much for having me. Yay.Ilyse Liffreing (01:02):So last July, PNC Bank came up with the campaign brilliantly boring. It's the first work with your new agency of record, Arnold Worldwide. Why is this campaign a game changer for the 160 year old brand?Jenn Garbach (01:15):Well, nothing infuses life and vigor into a brand like putting the word boring into it, but this has been a really fun opportunity for us to help match the growth trajectory of the business by rethinking the way we're telling the story about PNC in the marketplace. And so brilliantly boring has really been about taking that step forward, defining our brand in a way that brings distinction resonance in a very, very crowded and commoditized financial services market and is really authentic to who we are as an organization at PNC. Amazing.Ilyse Liffreing (01:48):And why lean into the word boring by any chance? The term is not, I guess, usually one you would associate with a creative campaign.Jenn Garbach (01:55):It isn't, but it works so well for us. And I think the single biggest thing is boring is very authentic to who PNC is. And give me a moment. Because what we're really proud of is redefining what boring means. Boring doesn't mean old stuck in our ways. What we're redefining boring as is steady, reliable, and trustworthy. And why that's really important to us is that we know financial services has seen as an industry has seen its ups and downs, not just recently, but frankly over time. And so the ability to signal to our customers that we are a bank that is 160 years old and that we have been steady and reliable along the way is really important. And how are you guys telling a story across Lakewood channels? We're across all mass channels right now, so you'll see us on tv, online, video, social media, and then pulling increasingly through our lower funnel and direct marketing. So that's been another fun part of bringing brilliantly boring to life in all aspects of PNCs marketing.Kat Vesce (02:53):I love that reframe too. And reclaiming the word boring to make it something more meaningful and more related to steadiness ofJenn Garbach (03:00):I think that's right. And what we hear in the marketplace too is while there's a lot of pressure to keep up in the marketplace, and we are certainly innovating and bringing new products, new technology to market, when you do the consumer research, you do not hear people saying, you know what I want from my bank? A really flashy forward bank that is doing all of these technological things. People want their money to be there when they need it. They're looking for a steady, reliable partner. And frankly, they're not thinking about financial services all the time, but when they need their money, they want to know it's there and they have access to it. And that's at the nexus of redefining brilliantly boring is we'll do all the boring stuff behind the scenes so that you can live the brilliant life that you want. You can be the brilliant business owner and run your business the way that you want.Kat Vesce (03:46):I love that. Less risks, less flash, more reliability.Jenn Garbach (03:49):That's right.Kat Vesce (03:50):So it seems like PNC Bank has not only undertaken a rehaul in terms of messaging, but a technical one as well. How has your previous experience as the head of global marketing, planning, operations and transformation at PayPal helped steer your strategy in reaching today's consumers for PNC Bank?Jenn Garbach (04:06):I'm going to lean into the campaign for a second and bear with me on this one. Part of the content extension of Brilliantly Boring is our boring before brilliance content series. And so we work with sports athletes like Scott Dixon, who's an indie car racer, or Steve Stricker who's a PGA golfer, and tell the story about all the boring, repetitive, seemingly mundane aspects of their training routines that show up in these moments of brilliance, whether it's on the racetrack, on the course. And that really sits behind when I think about not only my experience, but what we are doing at PNC, which is operational excellence is the foundation of what leads to brilliance of how we go to market and how we're able to connect and resonate with customers. So I think a bunch of that experience before leading through many different forms of transformation is making sure that we don't ignore the boring basics, those steady, reliable aspects of making sure we have process technology capabilities that we're training the team and helping set them up to take advantage of all of those new capabilities. And then how that shows up is us really resonating in a different way through campaigns like brilliantly boring, but also in our one-to-one marketing, our personalization efforts and really bringing value and resonance to the customers that we're working with.Kat Vesce (05:26):And let's shift into the results of this campaign. How is brilliantly boring performing? Is it reaching the right audience? Are you hitting everything that you set out to do with it? Any surprising results?Jenn Garbach (05:37):Yeah, we are really, really excited. So, so far we are firing in all dimensions right now by the numbers. Our return on ad spend is up 12% compared to prior campaigns. Our brand lift is up with statistically significant increase, which as we are on a growth trajectory as bank, moving from this super regional tier and competing increasingly with the big national banks signaling that we are a big national bank, someone that consumers can trust, seeing lift in all of those metrics is really important and something that we were looking for. And I think the one that's really fun and gives us some real time feedback is we have the highest positive social sentiment that we have ever had in our history of recording that. And that's really showing the engagement and the fun and the humor shining through with this campaign and how, I mean, you guys know, social is a channel that is very easy for folks to come in with negative thoughts or complaints. And so the idea that we're able to create really positive engagement is a nice feedback loop and response for us right now.Ilyse Liffreing (06:42):And now I understand that the campaign not only moved the needle in terms of reaching customers, but also internally kind of working as a way to center your corporate PNC around guideposts. Can you explain why?Jenn Garbach (06:58):I think having a campaign like this has done a bunch of really great things for us. It's been a culture carrier and in some ways defining our brand in this way is giving folks a way to see themselves and the work that they do. You don't have to be in marketing to be a part of brilliantly boring. You can be a credit underwriter, you can be in operations, you can be in the frontline working in the care center in a branch and really live and embody that spirit of brilliantly boring. It's also just help us give a story internally. So there's this mirror image of what we're trying to do with new breakthrough storytelling externally, but that same thing applies internally. One of the things I love most is hearing folks play back, Hey, for the first time I'm watching our new TV ads and it feels like we're putting PNC on stage with those other big banks that I'm used to seeing other banks, other companies show up like this. And it's a source of pride for folks to be able to see themselves. So really, really pleased that it is carrying that torch for us internally. And then it helps us connect further with the brand is not just the campaign. The brand is the culmination of all of our product services and experiences. And so having folks feel that connected is really impactful.Ilyse Liffreing (08:11):Now I want to take a moment and kind of see the big picture here because you mentioned before that we're living in a time of high distrust of banks. Now how does this campaign and then perhaps any future ones you're working on, what does it do to calm those consumers fears in this area? Where is this fear coming from originally? I guess really? Where does the responsibility of the marketer come in here?Jenn Garbach (08:40):I think it's being honest and really assessing the marketplace landscape that we're operating in today. Right. And while I may not be proud of it, it's fairly evident to be able to say that financial services has not exactly been a beloved industry to folks over the past 20 years. And again, you can look at bank failures at the beginning of last year, you can look back to 2008, there's this repeated history. But if you go back even further, kind of citing that 160 year history, there was a time when banking was a mainstay of the community, right? Truly like a pillar on every main street in the community as that steady, reliable place. And so this is both coming from consumer feedback saying we are looking for that steady, reliable partner, and also we're looking for an empathetic partner. And that is a place that in our history at PNC, we have always shined through as a partner that builds relationships with our customers and with our clients. And so I think brilliantly boring is a way for us to really help acknowledge some of that mistrust in the industry and signal that we have been steady and reliable this whole time. And that's in fact a differentiator in a time where things can be very flashy fast, it's a lot changing in the financial environment overall, and it's actually a differentiator for usKat Vesce (10:04):Creating that bit of fomo too. I bet. For people who may be left and want to come back.Jenn Garbach (10:08):That's right.Kat Vesce (10:10):With such a legacy brand like PNC Bank, how do you balance what to carry into the future and what to refresh?Jenn Garbach (10:16):It's a great question. I think about in any time of transition, and I'll define us in transition as just in growth mode, really being thoughtful about what you keep and what you leave behind. And I mentioned earlier that notion of we have always been a relationship based organization that is something that is so near and dear to our hearts culturally and is a huge part of our success recipe. So we are going to keep and hold that precious and showcase that frankly as part of the brand, what we're going to leave behind and be willing to move on from is growing from a bank that used to be a regional based in Pittsburgh and now operating at national scale. We've got to be ready to leave behind some of the processes, some of the things that we operated that way because it served us back in the day and now we need to try new things. That includes being open to a bold new brand platform, like brilliantly boring. So I think it's a nice signal of the willingness to embrace some new things that we never would've seen on our horizon in the past, but also keep true to the foundational parts of our culture, the ways of working that are really core to our success.Kat Vesce (11:22):We're going to pivot into some rapid fire q and a and celebration of International Women's Day and Women's Month. So focusing on you as a female marketing leader, what has been your biggest challenge?Jenn Garbach (11:37):I was thinking about this question and I think one, as a marketing leader, I think my biggest challenge has been being able to balance the art and science of marketing. And as a woman leader, it's been the ability to constantly my personal and my professional expectations. And those end up bleeding together in these different intersections. And sometimes it ends up in the form of being one of few women at the table. But I do feel very lucky that I have worked for organizations that have really strong advocacy and where I do have other women at the table. But I would say balancing that element of the function that it can sometimes be written off as just creative and there's lots of science and data behind how we go to market. And then also the tension of I'm a mom, I'm a wife, I'm a friend, I have all these other dimensions and constantly recalibrating those expectations and how those play in with my aspirations and my leadership growth journey.Kat Vesce (12:37):Have you cracked the code because as also a mom and a marketer and trying to balance career growth and that trajectory as well as wanting to be there for your kids and wanting to be a good spouse and wanting to be a great friend? I feel the same things you're talking about. Wondering if you have any adviceJenn Garbach (12:58):On that. I don't know that I can claim to have cracked the code, but the thing that has helped me is probably twofold. It's one thinking about you have these different pillars of my life and I named some of them. It's my family, it's my career, it's my friends, it's my health. And it is seldom that all of those pillars are perfectly in place at any given time. And the second part is realizing that it is, I use that phrase recalibration intentionally. It's I need to recalibrate my own expectations of I can't give a hundred percent energy to all of those aspects at all times. And so being really honest with myself of I'm in a surge mode career, which might mean I'm pulling back on family and sometimes that's hard to acknowledge, but having that conversation with my family and rebalancing is really important. So that I think it's keeping at forefront and realizing it's not actually a point of arrival. It's a constant process.Ilyse Liffreing (13:56):Now, a common qualm of women I guess is that they experience imposter syndrome being in any, this is across multiple industries, of course, but in marketing, I feel like it's true. Have you experienced imposter syndrome in your career? And if so, I guess how did you push past it?Jenn Garbach (14:15):Absolutely. That feeling of being called into the principal's office when you get an email or a phone call from a senior leader or that feeling of, oh my gosh, this is the time they're going to figure out, I have no idea what I'm doing. I do think I have made significant growth personally in helping to manage that. And one of the things that's been really helpful is I've worked with a number of different coaches and this idea of what is the talk track that's in my head versus what is the reality of the feedback signals around me? And I actually had a leader that I worked with previously who played this back really directly to me when I was sharing very openly about some of that challenge of feeling like I was underperforming. And he looked at me and said, Jenn, is that story in your head? What feedback are you actually getting? Who has told you that besides yourself? And so that's something, again, try to keep in the forefront of my mind of is that a narrative I'm building for myself and does that match the feedback that I'm getting around me? And if it's disconnected, that might be a signal of it's just up in my head when all the other kind of signals are coming back being like, no,(15:26):You're right in there. Keep Going.Ilyse Liffreing (15:28):And do you think women in marketing face different expectations or leadership challenges than their male counterparts? Kind of a tricky one. How do you navigate those?Jenn Garbach (15:38):Yeah. One of the dynamics that I'm always cognizant of is probably more related to, again, marketing as a function. And I think because marketing is not always well understood broadly at an organization and can get reduced to the idea of it's producing creative, it can play into stereotypes about women and women workers. And so I think it's about, for me at least, it's been about building my leadership brand as a transformational leader and then grounding that in a broad general management skillset and really taking a data-driven approach to marketing to help combat that. There are lots of fun, creative parts of my job, but there's also a science and a math behind it and creating that accountability for myself and how I interact with my business partners to show outcomes. So that is something that I definitely think exists broadly. And I have tried to just balance for myself by thinking about what is that leadership brand for myself and what is my leadership philosophy in terms of leading a marketing organizationKat Vesce (16:39):As more women take on executive roles, what shifts do you hope to see in the way marketing organizations are structured and led?Jenn Garbach (16:47):I don't know if I have a great answer to how I want to see them structured and led. I think I just want to see more women in the leadership roles in the seats. I think I don't want to be reductive to how women lead. I think it's just the idea of the more different brains we have at the table, the broader our thinking, the better our collaboration. And so I think it's about getting more folks into the seats and finding out what that actually looks like.Kat Vesce (17:16):And not even gender. No, but not even gender specific. That could mean anyone. I think just diversity of thought is so important. Exactly. Yes. Yeah, exactly. Amazing. Well, Jenn, thank you so much for the time. Thank you so much. We really enjoyed this.Jenn Garbach (17:26):Thank you for having me. This has been fun.Kat Vesce (17:27):Second, great. Wow. Another stellar conversation today. I'm just walking away so inspired. I really loved how PNC Bank and Jenn Garba have reclaimed the word boring, obviously. It's a main point of, it's so fun. It's so fun and a great way to reframe it into meaning something that is steady, something that is reliable. Taking that tradition of what PNC bank stands for and meeting the needs of what their customers told them they're looking for in a modern bank is just so cool. And really what a way to transition the brand.Ilyse Liffreing (18:11):And for 160 year old legacy brand, that's hard to do. It's really balancing what they want to carry into the future and what they want to refresh. And I feel like Jenn was really good at describing exactly thatKat Vesce (18:26):And giving their internal employees like a battle cry or something to you really rally behind, which is so important. Especially as she mentioned, their services are going to, on the national scale, it feels like a campaign that can really service anyone in the country at any age who really, you don't want the flash and pizazz.(18:47):You want to be able to live that way maybe with your finances being in order, but you kind of need the steadiness of that.Ilyse Liffreing (18:54):It should be boring. It really should be boring, be easy and boring. I also liked how she dug into imposter syndrome because I feel like that's very prevalent as women in marketing. And it was very fascinating how she had a boss who was like, I think that's just a story playing out in your head. Nobody's telling you this. It'sKat Vesce (19:14):A good reminder to make sure that you're leveraging true feedback that's coming in and not creating your own story or perception. I think as women, we, and in general, marketers really strive to elevate the bar in everything they do, and I think it's important for everyone to remindIlyse Liffreing (19:38):Themselves, especially when you're battlingKat Vesce (19:41):Perception versus realityIlyse Liffreing (19:43):Handling everything like motherhood on top of,Kat Vesce (19:45):Oh, that was another favorite moment for me, I think. I was like, give me all the tips. Have you cracked the code? Does anyone crack the code?(19:56):Because I mean, whether you're, Nope, truth is nope. But I loved how she said you can't be a hundred percent in any one pillar. And beyond just being a mom, she talked about health, being a good friend, surging in your career, and managing when and how those surges come to fair.(20:13):Just really gave me a lot to think about. I need to do some adjustments in my own life to make sure I'm not trying to do adjustments.Ilyse Liffreing (20:21):Yeah, that's what biggest takeaway. We all need to do adjustments.Kat Vesce (20:25):Yeah. Yep. And that's it for this edition of The Current Podcast.

Most parents encounter resistance from their children. Perhaps when the kids are young and turning their noses up at vegetables, or when they're teenagers and balking at curfews or dress codes.So what's the best way to encourage good choices in the face of a rebellious kid? Or a rebellious adult, for that matter?In this episode of Choiceology with Katy Milkman, we look at the surprising ways that resistance to authority can be leveraged for positive change. During the mid 1990s, the "Truth" anti-youth smoking campaign was everywhere. Many TV ads cleverly harnessed the teenage penchant for rebellion, using guerilla filming techniques and revealing hidden truths about smoking known to the tobacco industry for years. The campaign drastically lowered youth smoking rates and remains one of the most effective campaigns in history. Fran Kelly was on the frontlines, leading the advertising campaign at Arnold Worldwide. Francis "Fran" Kelly is the president and CEO of branding consulting firm CEOVIEW Branding. He was previously the president and CEO of global advertising agency Arnold Worldwide.Next, Katy speaks with Christopher Bryan about his research on leveraging rebellion as a way to encourage healthy eating among adolescents. You can learn more in his paper titled "Harnessing Adolescent Values to Motivate Healthier Eating." Christopher Bryan is an associate professor of business, government, and society at the University of Texas at Austin's McCombs School of Business.

2020 – a pivotal year marked by George Floyd's tragic murder and the global pandemic's disproportionate impact on distressed communities. As the world grappled with these challenges, the demand for social justice reverberated across various sectors, prompting organizations to reassess their approach to social impact. In this insightful episode of "I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY," hosts Samí Haiman-Marrero and Chris Majocha have an inspiring conversation is Michael Houston, the CEO and founder of Mythix Sound Design and Director of Social Impact at Arnold Worldwide. Michael shares his remarkable journey from music production to advocating for social change within the corporate realm. Despite facing challenges as a marginalized individual at the beginning of his career, Michael found solace and encouragement at Arnold, where he's empowered to utilize his advocacy skills with gusto. However, getting to where he is now required the courage to quit a prior job that delivered more harm than growth. And it also required an attitude of being open to exploring opportunities that presented themselves, including entrepreneurship, with a collaborative spirit. Michael emphasizes the importance of authenticity and vulnerability in fostering spaces for social impact. He highlights the transformative (not performative) initiatives he's created and led with his team and the significance of grace and empathy while at work, particularly during tumultuous times like the pandemic. As he shares his lived experiences as a person of color who is part of the LGBTQ+ community he stresses the necessity of finding supportive communities, embracing intersectionality, and committing to personal growth through ongoing conversations about diversity and inclusion. It becomes evident as Michael's story unfolds, that leading with genuineness not only opens doors but also fosters meaningful connections that drive positive change. He delivers a powerful message: in a world yearning for social impact, authenticity is the catalyst for creating lasting and meaningful transformation. #Urbander #UdoU #IHAVESOMETHINGTOSAY #podcast

ButcherBox CMO Kiran Smith on how she overhauled a startup-y marketing team

Most people say the subscription box era is over. Then there's ButcherBox. The Boston-based meat subscription company has been bootstrapped since it launched in 2015. The company is profitable. And it continues to grow -- it brought in more than $600 million of revenue in 2022. What made ButcherBox work for the first eight years was its scrappy mentality -- one that focused on profitable growth. Now, the company is reaching its adolescence and brought in a veteran marketer to lead the charge. Kiran Smith was named CMO last year, coming from companies like iRobot, Arnold Worldwide and Brookstone. Her mandate was to systematize the entire marketing schema for the company. "What I found when I arrived about a year ago is that marketing was spread across six different teams, across multiple people within the business," Smith said on the Modern Retail Podcast. This wasn't a bad thing, but for a scaling company, it meant that some workflows had to change. "That's why I was hired," Smith said, "to help build us for that next stage of growth." Part of the focus was on figuring out the latent potential. "There's so much ahead of us, in terms of capabilities that we can build out as marketers," Smith said. But the biggest focus this year was on recreating the marketing organization. "I would say it took up most of the first year," she said. It involved figuring out how to make six different teams work under one leader, as well as creating a cohesive roadmap that fits the overall goals of the company. But even with this daunting task, Smith said that much of ButcherBox's marketing is already in place thanks to its rabid fan base. "That helps a lot — that we have our members' belief in us and in our products," she said. With that, Smith said this was the type of job she's always wanted -- a company that's growing but isn't hampered by the patterns and bureaucracies most billion-dollar companies face. "I didn't find it daunting," she said. "I found it exciting."

Kiran Smith is four months in to her new role of Chief Executive Officer of Arnold Worldwide, and what intrigued me immediately was not only hearing a fresh perspective, but from someone who had never worked on the agency side before... Here's the topline. Listen to Episiode 23 of MediaVillage.com's Insider InSites for the full story!  E.B. Moss:  Kiran Smith, you were most recently Chief Marketing Officer at Brookstone, and before that you headed marketing at Stride Rite, and Shaw's Supermarkets. So you came up through the marketing ranks to be CEO of Arnold Worldwide. Tell us more. Kiran Smith: ...As I said to the recruiter, "You know I don't have a day of agency experience, right?" He said, "That's exactly why we want to talk to you." So, I just expressed my opinions on what I thought about agencies and the opportunity for CMOs. ...CMOs are under more pressure than ever. Their budgets are getting tighter, their teams are getting leaner, and they're looking for partners to help them address the business needs, give them an independent perspective on what's going on in theirs and other industries. ..I'm not a creative person. I'm a business person and despite the fact that I'm a marketer, I am a computer science major, so it's a very atypical type of trajectory.... Arnold is a creative powerhouse; what I didn't appreciate was the amount of capabilities we have from a business insights, strategies and analytics standpoint, and that allows us to be able to better serve our clients. So, it's not about the creative alone, it really is about everything we surround the creative with. Moss: What are you recommending as new channels of application to your clients? Smith: Our job is to stay ahead of trends so that we can better advise our clients. What's going on with AR, with Voice, with AI? They need us to be their partner in looking forward so that we can tell them how we can apply it to their businesses. [But] the first thing we say is, "Just because everyone's doing it doesn't mean that you have to, too." .... Moss: In terms of how you prioritize your approach for clients, is it a split in terms of performance versus content? Smith: Content has to perform... it can't be creative for creative’s sake. What behavior are we looking to get from someone interacting with that content? All of that has to live in the analytics portion of it, because if we just do it because it looks good, sounds good, then we're not doing our jobs well.   Moss: What are some of your favorite examples of that amazing creative from Arnold? Smith: Progressive [and] the success of the Flo campaign...but also going into new parts. ...We just did an activation with Santander around homelessness in Boston which was unbelievable from an engagement, cause marketing, and use of AR technology standpoint. Moss: How do you approach storytelling at the agency? Smith: I give our creatives credit for working so well with our insights and strategy team to say, "Okay, tell me about the consumer. Tell me about the opportunity. ..." They take all of that into account and then they write the story. That, for me, is so much more impactful because it's creative with a purpose. Moss: Where do you pull your data from primarily? Smith: We obviously have syndicated data. We also do a fair amount of our own qualitative or quantitative research for every single client, both current and prospective ... With every pitch that we do I want to teach the client something they didn't know about themselves. When I was on a CMO side those are the agencies that I remembered. Moss: What do you think is new and next ...what about audio, AI, OTT? Smith: Specifically, I would say #AR is super important. #Voice, 100%. I think the smarter people who understand how to leverage and use them to their advantage and not get overwhelmed [by them], or so lost in it that they lose perspective in terms of what they're trying to do...are the ones that are going to win. Moss: The ANA just published their diversity report on the industry. Tell me about your experience creating a corporate culture and your plan for that? Smith: Diversity and inclusion has always been important to Arnold in terms of top priorities, so I am inheriting an organization that has all the ingredients there. Everybody's job is about D&I, and it's not just about gender or race, [it’s including the need] to take into account how you think. ...Listen to Insider InSites to hear all Smith's thoughts on what's trending, if in-house agencies are a good idea, and creating a work/life balance.

Prior to focusing on Balls as a freelance writer, Chris was the EVP Group Creative Director at Arnold Worldwide - this is the company I've been working for for the past 2 years.  Chris' transition from female to male took years and it was a part of his memory that is very painful to look back on.

Joining me on the Feisworld Podcast today is Jordan Clayton, an SVP of UX (User Experience) at Arnold Worldwide. UX has become increasingly popular over the years across all the industries (technology, marketing, medicine and beyond), but most schools still haven’t figured out a systematic and effective way to help students learn more and be properly trained on UX. As a result, many young, ambitious, creative souls find it challenging to find a UX position they qualify for. This podcast isn’t a your crash course to UX, but a lesson with deep insights to how a UX designer thinks, what he looks for in hiring, what prototyping is. Jordan offers his point of view, lessons learned and interplays through his unique career path. Jordan also argues that UX isn't just about making things useful and usable, but more fun, compelling, inspiring and more emotionally engaging as well. Beyond UX, Jordan is known as a well-dressed charismatic leader in the office. How does he achieve this kind of credibility? The answers live in his cross-disciplinary vision to design, fashion and music. And Jordan appreciates small things life, every day. I hope you enjoy this conversation and thank you so much for choosing to spend your time with us. I feel very privileged to be able to do this. To learn more about Jordan, connect with him on LinkedIn. He admits that he's most actively on Twitter (@jordan001).

I had the pleasure of interviewing a colleague, Renee Herendeen from Arnold Worldwide, on the feisworld podcast. Renee and I work on several of projects together.  We share similar beliefs when it comes to life at work and outside of work. One morning, Renee said to Carrie (my coworker) and me: "You two should come to my Zumba class on Tuesdays." "Did you say Z.U.M.B.A?" Though I teach Taekwondo (a form of Korean martial arts) to adults and children at my dojang once in a while, instructing a crowd of people you've never met to learn how to dance seemed out of my reach. For those of you who aren't familiar with Zumba, it is an aerobic program inspired by a variety of Latin dance movements performed to upbeat, sassy music. It is a fun, relaxing and sweat-dripping workout that engraves a permanent smile on my face. Some of the dots began to connect for me.  For months I had known Renee, I often wondered why she handles stressful situations with  ease, why she doesn't loses her temper, why she listens (while many other don't). etc. etc. More importantly, the way she carries herself isn't just surface-level, but something much more profound. I couldn't wait to ask Renee about her "secret origin" stories. What made her into who she is today? What was it like to pursue a life in dancing while her peers followed a traditional path?  What's the difference between a Day in the Life of a Dancer vs. Marketing Director?  This 40-min podcast is to answer these questions and much more. Such as Renee's experience in taking a Stress Management Course at Mass General Hospital, and her decision in teaching Zumba to women in homeless shelters. If you are (or if you know someone who is)  fresh out of school, in career transition, I hope you find this episode resonating and insightful. Please share your comments and I look forward to hearing from you. To learn more about Renee and her Zumba classes, please follow her on Facebook. You can also sign up for her Zumba lessons taught at O'Malley Tae Kwon Do Center this summer (starting Sunday, 6/28) Show Notes:  When did you get started with dancing? [1:45]  What are some of the most memorable experiences you’ve had? [3:45]  What was a day in the life of a dancer in NYC? [5:45] So, In addition to Zumba, what do you do to keep your creative engine working? [10:00] What is something that you don’t carry on the surface of yourself? [13:00 ]  What are some of the counterintuitive things they’ve taught you at MGH? [15:15]  I want to hear about your meditation routine (can include link to youtube in comments) [21:15] What is a day in the life of a marketing director at Arnold [23:00] What was it like teaching Zumba to homeless people?

Ira Cummings is my guest on the feisworld podcast. He is a Sr. Designer at Arnold Worldwide, with a background and training in illustration. I called him out as the first introvert ever invited to the podcast (perhaps, others may just be better at hiding it). But let’s face it, #IntrovertsRule. They are focused, thoughtful, and often bring the most surprising ideas and solutions to the table. Ira is one of them, whom I had the pleasure to work with in the past year on a variety of projects.    Ira has a Open Studio coming up Friday April 10th - 12th 2015. If you happen to listen to this podcast before the show, look up Miller Street Open Studio in Somerville and that’s where you will meet Ira and his artworks.    In this one hour conversation with Ira, we talked about design, branding, experiencing the brand as a customer and vice versa - engaging with customers as a brand.    Ira and I area also in the process of rebranding the feisworld podcast. He says:”When my friends embark on something that's so close to their hearts, I like to help them out!” Ira has been a huge supporter from the very beginning of my podcast. Feisworld isn’t the only one, Ira has helped out on AIGA, Jason Stevens’ Annual Design Conference, Design Exchange Boston (DXB), Design Museum Boston.    "My interest and love for both fuel the pursuit whether it's for work, myself, all of none of the above."   --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/support

I met Bob Goodman at Arnold Worldwide, where he served as the SVP, Director User Experience. I had the pleasure to work with Bob on a few projects when I witnessed his stellar facilitation skills and User Experience (UX) approach to various business challenges. Inviting Bob to my show was triggered by a constant thought in my mind when working with Bob: I always wished to carry a recorder so I could capture his speech and thinking process for tackling difficult situations completely at ease. I also admire his leadership and management philosophy. Bob always had others' best interest in mind without insisting on his own ideas and methodologies. and he is never too quick to jump to conclusion. In this 40-mins interview, you will find out about: What is UX (User Experience)? What has contributed to the rapid growth of UX and why UX has been recognized as a critical discipline across multiple industries (advertising, software, etc.)? How can one fresh out of school start or consider UX as a career path? What are the common challenges associated with UX and how Bob advises you to tackle them strategically and emotionally? How has UX been integrated in advertising agencies and the types of activities, opportunity associated with the domain? In October 2014, Bob became an Experience Design / Creative Director at Mullen after practicing being UX practitioner for over 15 years. Bob enjoys thinking about users, consumers and how they might come about a service or a platform. UX focuses on the idea of a brand narrative and how it interacts with users with the intent of being useful and helpful. What exactly is UX? There are many definitions you can find on the internet. Bob defines UX as "an approach to design, technology and people that tries to make things useful, usable and engaging". UX is a practice that goes back to late 60s, 70s known as part of "human computer interaction (HCI)" before becoming a more mainstream profession widely known as UX today. UX can be a confusing term - it's not graphic design, or computer programming. By definition and design, UX is a hybrid discipline that contributed to the challenge of its practice. As agencies expand their missions, UX goes beyond traditional storytelling, or television campaigns. UX is about letting users contribute in a -way conversation. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/support

Chris is a full time, full stack developer at Arnold Worldwide. I had the pleasure to work with Chris on a number of projects. I invited Chris to speak to my audience about his journey of becoming a developer after a few career switches, to staying relevant in this ever-changing technological environment we all live in. Chris gave much credit to his mentors who set up his success as a developer.  If you don't have mentors in your immediately network, make sure that you take advantage of meet up groups. Chris also speaks to the possiblity for people who are interested in technology and development to be self-taught. "You need the personality to learn, create, and constantly seek out new information. Technology is always changing." "Get out of your comfort zone!" is such an important element to success. Chris emphasizes one of his key takeaways while he was still in school:"When you are in college, you tend to have friends who have similar experience, anxieties because you all have the (more or less) the same staring line." Instead, Chris left his campus and started skydiving, where he met an awesome group of very diverse people who were well along in their careers, including senior developers who quickly became his mentors. I call this technique "proximity-based learning from extraordinaries" that enabled Chris to learn at a speed that doubled if not tripled the speed of his peers. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/support

Matt Lindley is the Director of Innovation for SapientNitro. We became friends instantly when he first started working there in 2009. Matt had such an impact on my life. If you ask me to list 3 people who have helped shape me into who I am today, Matt would be one of them.    Matt's list of accomplishments in the advertising and marketing world goes way way back. He's been a storyteller for over 25 years. He sold OneZero Media, where he created and produced CBS’s first broadcast TV show about the internet, and he personally hosted it for three seasons. He was an ECD/EVP at Arnold Worldwide leading Progressive. More recently, he co-created a business visioning tool called ThirtySix at SapientNitro.    He's a board member for Friends of the Boston's Homeless, a non-profit organization that helps over 400 homeless individuals move beyond shelter to lead independent lives in our community. He is also a board member for Stop Handgun Violence. Those of you who have driven by Mass Turnpike around 2008-09, you probably have noticed the 250-foot billboard that says "We Sell Guns! No ID Required. No Background Checks."    In this 2-part episode, I recorded with Matt Lindley at his home office. You will hear about Matt's path from growing up on a farm in Pennsylvania to his appointment as a senior advertising executive.
