For some time now, economists have been speculating about the next recession, questioning whether 2023 will indeed be the year of the next economic downturn. Most believe that it’s likely to happen this year, so questions have shifted to “How long will it last?” Many consumers are paying more attention than ever to where they are spending their money. For this reason and many others, businesses need to ensure that they are seen as the best and most reputable. Naturally—and logically—this leads to informed discussions about strategy, sales, client retention, client relationships and so much more. While marketing might be the first thing that pops into a lot of business owners’ minds, the answer for many becomes public relations. Many view PR as a want, not a need, but with influencer marketing and … [Read more...] about Public Relations During A Recession: What You Need To Know To Move Your Business Forward

AFP WASHINGTON — With US Covid-19 deaths averaging 500 a day, down from a peak of more than 3,000 two years ago, the White House plans to end national and public health emergencies on May 11. A public health emergency in response to the pandemic was declared under former president Donald Trump in January 2020 and has been renewed every 90 days since then. Trump declared a national emergency in March 2020 and it was renewed by President Joe Biden. More than 1.1 million Americans have died of Covid — but life has been gradually returning to normal as the pandemic eases and vaccination levels approach 70 percent of the population. A lifting of the national and public health emergencies will have a number of impacts: Why May 11? The Biden administration announced the May 11 date in response to an attempt by Republicans in … [Read more...] about US to lift COVID-19 emergencies – what happens next?

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Surbhi Sarna didn’t intend to become an entrepreneur when she faced a potential cancer diagnosis. As a high school student, she just hoped to survive. But Sarna’s cancer scare did change her life—and perhaps the lives of millions of others. After Sarna finished college, she started nVision Medical. She created a device she hoped would one day catch ovarian cancer in its early stages. She later sold the company to Boston Scientific for $275 million. That’s the short story. But, in the longer version, Sarna’s pitch was rejected by 50 investors. They were skeptical because Sarna didn’t have an MBA or a medical school degree. In other words, she didn’t check off all the right boxes. “I’ve been underrated and doubted my entire life,” Sarna told me during an interview about her new book, Without a Doubt . Sarna’s transformation from underrated to unbeatable offers valuable lessons for anyone with an idea to share or a … [Read more...] about How An Entrepreneur Learned The Art Of The Pitch And Sold Her Startup For $275M

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Best-selling fantasy author Neil Gaiman ( Sandman, Good Omens, American Gods ) famously got his start in the medium of comics, where collaboration between writer and artist is necessary to create the final story. Over the years, he has worked with a range of talented visual partners, from Sandman co-creator Sam Keith to Japanese fine artist Yoshitaka Amano. Now a new show at New York’s Society of Illustrators explores Gaiman’s decades-long association with artist Colleen Doran , and how the two storytellers bring out the best in one another. The show is part of the MoCCA Arts Fest , an art and comics expo taking place in New York April 1-2. “What makes their collaboration so interesting is how Colleen does so many different things depending on the tone and direction of the story,” said curator Kim Munson. “There are so many visual references and touchpoints, and so much range to her style.” Doran started her … [Read more...] about New Exhibit Showcases How Artist Colleen Doran Illuminates The Work Of Neil Gaiman

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin In 2018/2019, the last time Broadway had a full 52-week season, more than 14.77 million people attended a Broadway show. According to the Broadway League these productions have drawn more people to its theaters than all New York City sports teams combined. And yet, during its centuries of existence, Broadway never had its own dedicated museum in the heart of the theater district. That is until now. This past November the Museum of Broadway opened its doors on West 45th Street. Spread along four fun-packed floors, the 26,000 square foot space contains a plethora of costumes, original scripts, immersive exhibits and other unique artifacts. There’s everything from the original Ziegfeld Follies costumes from the early 1900s to the actual wig made from 100,000 strands of hair created by wigmaker Paul Huntley for Patti LuPone in the original 1979 Broadway production of Evita to correspondence between Rent … [Read more...] about They Turned Their Dream To Create A Show-Stopping Museum Devoted To Broadway Into A Reality

A rare peek inside their agricultural empire shows how Stewart and Lynda Resnick are going all-in on the innovative citrus fruit. By Chloe Sorvino , Forbes Staff On a sunny 58-degree day in Delano, California, Zak Laffite walks through groves of trees where he grows a special kind of lemon, and then stops to explain how harvest works. “What we want is the tree to justify how much fruit comes off,” Laffite says. “We don’t want it all to come off at the same time. We basically say, just give me a little bit.”Laffite picks off a lemon. He quickly takes a knife from his pocket and slices open the fruit to reveal the inside: no seeds, with a thin white rim around the edge and a light yellow rind . “We’ll come in here and if the fruit’s this size, it’s ready to come off. If it’s colored up, we’ll get it as well,” Laffite says. That first pick will leave two-thirds of the lemons still on the trees. More lemons are picked off in a couple weeks. Then there’s a third round. … [Read more...] about Seedless Lemons Are The Next Big Bet From The Billionaires Behind Halos, Pom Wonderful And Fiji Water

The world watched in shock as Credit Suisse, one of the most established global banking and financial services institutions, collapsed and was eventually acquired by UBS. I believe a significant factor in Credit Suisse’s downfall was its rigid stance on forcing staff to return to the office. This cautionary tale serves as a reminder for business leaders to adapt to the changing world of work and prioritize their workforce’s needs and preferences. The Iron Fist: Credit Suisse’s return to office policy In stark contrast to the growing trend of many companies embracing a flexible hybrid work approach, Credit Suisse took a more traditional approach, mandating that staff return to the office three days a week. According to one banker there, “they’re removing our flexibility, and it doesn’t feel great.” In May 2022, the bank’s leadership originally supported flexibility and hybrid work as evidenced by then-CEO Thomas Gottstein professing that a return to office was “not … [Read more...] about POV: How work arrangements played a part in the collapse of Credit Suisse and SVB
