Monday Marketing Motivation | New Approaches to Business and Life
As we look to life after the pandemic, many people are reflecting on deep, personal questions about how to live. Those questions include reflecting on how we work. Below I share some of my favorite resources that I discovered in the last week to help guide your explorations.
Inspiration *Mapping Personal Values to Professional Ambitions
The ZigZag podcast is my favorite podcast. Manoush Zomorodi is the host (she’s the host of Ted Radio hour, so you might be familiar with her.) In the newest season, Manoush has created a project that walks listeners through six steps. By the end, they should be able to map personal values with professional ambitions. Take a listen here and start to assess and evolve your career in more fulfilling ways.
Business *Seth Godin on Leadership
Many of us are rethinking work in the U.S., where we work, how we work, and how to respect and honor one another’s humanity in a work setting. The last year has been hard for so many of us and this hardship has uncovered the ways that traditional business and leadership approaches are broken and need to be revised. In Seth Godin’s latest post, he discusses the role of enrollment vs authority as an evolved way to lead. It’s a great post and does a world of good for leaders to think about how to motivate people toward a common goal.
