Account Leadership 2.0: Intentions of Gratitude on the Big 40

http://www.johnkiker.com/2013/01/intentions-of-gratitude-on-big-40.html

Account Leadership 2.0. We can do better. Friday, January 25, 2013. Intentions of Gratitude on the Big 40. Just a quick post on how grateful I am to have been given so many gifts over my now 40 years. From my family to my friends to the amazing professional opportunities I've experienced, I truly have no complaints. What I hope, more than anything, to do better moving forward is to be more aware of grateful for what's right in front of me that I've taken for granted. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Account Leadership 2.0: April 2011

http://www.johnkiker.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

Account Leadership 2.0. We can do better. Friday, April 15, 2011. Friday Inspiration - Establishing a Shared Ethic. Huge thanks to my brother Chris for sharing with me. What an amazing piece. Hard to believe it's a commercial for a bank. And some may see that as a problem. I have no knowledge of where this fits within the bank's marketing mix or what problems they were trying to solve, but it reminds me of a planning evaluation tool we use at our agency.

Account Leadership 2.0: June 2011

http://www.johnkiker.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Account Leadership 2.0. We can do better. Thursday, June 2, 2011. A Simple Take on Innovation. So it brought a smile to my face when I found Steve Tobak's article on BNet. Using Einstein, Jobs and Schultz as examples, his point was that most innovative people seem the same issues and challenges we all do, just through a different lens. Brilliant people to be sure, but they brought different perspectives to issues others in their industries had approached in a uniform way. A corollary to the second point ...

Account Leadership 2.0. We can do better. Friday, February 24, 2012. Why This Should Scare the $@! Out of Ad Agencies. While almost being physically forced to sit down and watch the Grammys with my family a couple of weeks ago, a couple of things occurred to me. One,. Is a badass. Two, I was blown away by Chipotle spot. After re-watching the spot and noting its several million views on YouTube, I had trouble figuring out what agency did the concept work for the spot. After reading this. If not, we'll see...

Account Leadership 2.0: Moving from "Where's My App?" to "What's My App?"

http://www.johnkiker.com/2012/12/moving-from-wheres-my-app-to-whats-my.html

Account Leadership 2.0. We can do better. Sunday, December 2, 2012. Moving from "Where's My App? To "What's My App? First, you can't let yourself off the hook. Having to answer this question could entirely be you and your agency's fault. If you have yet to articulate the need (or lack thereof) for an app and how it would serve your client's customers, shame on you. That's simply a lack of vision and leadership. But it's not necessarily a lost cause. What does your brand have to offer of value? Those ques...

Account Leadership 2.0: September 2011

http://www.johnkiker.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

Account Leadership 2.0. We can do better. Wednesday, September 28, 2011. The more things change. Interesting article in Forbes. Mentioning the most pressing need for CMO's today:. The white-hot spark that focuses consumer attention, makes the brand relevant to the consumer, and keeps the audience engaged beyond a simple transaction.". I disagree with Forbes. This is no revelation. Hasn't the value of agencies always been derived from the power of their ideas? Author a unique strategy to solve the problem.
