We have many stories from CLIC ’18 to pass along, and they would consume pages! That’s why we plan to send you these stories in small bites in the coming months.
In the meantime, here’s one announcement that is worth shouting about.
Each year, we celebrate members who model our core values and raise the performance bar within our profession. This year, we selected someone who has taken their marketing leadership role to a whole new level: Jennifer Groese of List Partners….

It’s Independence Day in the United States…although I prefer the term “Interdependence Day.” We cannot thrive without creating unique development opportunities, and collaborating with like-minded leaders and creatives.
When I spend time with leadership luminaries and marketing trendsetters, it’s electrifying. You may be preparing for your own “electrifying experiences” this week…fun food, friends, and fireworks. We are too—except the fireworks will be continuing into the fall months for our community.
If you are experiencing isolation as a marketing leader, or love to learn from some of the world’s top business luminaries, then join us for some of these exciting fall events….

Guidelines and ideas for designing your own peer communities
How surrounding yourself with champions can also make you a champion
I invite you to take four minutes to enjoy the video….

Over 20 years ago, futurist John Naisbitt, author of Megatrends and High Tech/High Touch: Technology and Our Search for Meaning, predicted that “the more technology we have in this society, the more people want to be with people.” His predictions are coming true, especially among high performing executives who are struggling to find harmony between mindfulness and mindless technology addictions.
Think about how Naisbitt’s prophecy applies to you. Crowded networking events, faceless awards celebrations, and Pinterest pursuits are akin to playing a high-octane video game: you feel good when they are happening, but leave little lingering satisfaction when they have ended….
