Thinking With Mitch Joel

Welcome to episode #511 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast. Tim Sanders spends his career on the cutting edge. He was an early stage member of Mark Cuban and Todd Wagner's broadcast.com, which had the largest opening day IPO in history. After Yahoo acquired the company, Tim was tapped to lead their ValueLab, which enabled sales teams to close hundreds of millions of dollars of new business through rapid collaboration. By 2001, he rose to the position of Chief Solutions Officer and later, the company's Leadership Coach. In 2005, he founded Deeper Media, which provides consulting and training services for leading companies, trade associations and government agencies. Tim is the author of four books, including the New York Times bestseller Love Is the Killer App. His other books include Today We Are Rich, The Likeability Factor and Saving the World at Work. Now, he's back with Dealstorming, a book focused on how to create a better sales and marketing strategy within your organization. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #510 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #510 - Host: Mitch Joel. Joseph Jaffe is widely regarded as one of the top marketing bloggers (Jaffe Juice) and podcasters (both Jaffe Juice in audio and Jaffe Juice TV in video). He is the author of four excellent books (Life After The 30-Second Spot, Join The Conversation, Flip The Funnel and Z.E.R.O.) and his latest business venture is, Evol8tion. A long-time friend (and one of the main inspirations behind the Six Pixels of Separation blog and podcast), we've decided to hold semi-regular conversations, debates and back-and-forths that will dive a little deeper into the digital marketing and advertising landscape. This is our 37th conversation (or, as I like to affectionately call it, Across The Sound 37.20), and in this episode, we discuss slacktavism, Facebook, algorithms over humans, virtual reality, Facebook's live video push and much more. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #509 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #509 - Host: Mitch Joel. There's a reason Michael Bungay Stanier's first book, Do More Great Work, has sold close to 100,000 copies. It's small, but do not let the size of it fool you. If you're stuck. If you're not sure if you're focusing on what's important. You need to read that book. I don't even know how many copies of that book I have passed along to friends and colleagues. Then, Michael asked me to be one of the participants in a compilation book called, End Malaria. All proceeds from the book went to the Malaria No More charity (and that was close to $500,000), while the book wound up hitting #2 on Amazon (plus, it was published on Seth Godin's The Domino Project imprint). Well, Michael does a lot more than publish books that become movements. He spends the bulk of his day running Box Of Crayons - a consultancy to help time-crunched managers do less good work and much more great work. Over the years, he's learned a thing or two. With that, he's back with a brand new book, The Coaching Habit, that has some thoughts on how we can get the best out of ourselves (whether we're coaching someone, coaching ourselves or getting coached). Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #508 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #508 - Host: Mitch Joel. I have said it before. I will say it again. Christopher S. Penn is a deadly weapon... and I mean that in the kindest sense of the saying. Yes, he's a practicing Martial Artist, but he's a more dangerous marketing weapon. He's that rare breed of deeply tech savvy professional combined with an understanding of marketing that will make your head spin. His full-time job is as the Vice President of Marketing Technology at SHIFT Communications, but he's also one of the co-founders of PodCamp, co-host (with John Wall) of the Marketing Over Coffee podcast, and a very passionate blogger at Awaken Your Superhero. He's also published a slew of business book, White Belt Marketing, Marketing Blue Belt and - most recently - Leading Innovation. Some fans of the show may also remember him as one of the co-hosts of Media Hacks. With that, we came together to discuss all things innovation. Where does it come from, how does it work and what's your company missing? Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #507 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #507 - Host: Mitch Joel. It's always a pleasure to welcome Jay Baer back to the show. We don't always agree, but we both do love marketing in this modern age. Jay is back with a brand new book called, Hug Your Haters. The book is being described as a modern day approach to customer service. Jay says that customer service is the new marketing (a point we debate on this episode). Jay's last business book was Youtility. And, as if that weren't enough, he turned his blog, Convince And Convert into a major publishing platform that features multiple voices along with ton of fascinating podcasts and more. His first book, The Now Revolution (which he co-wrote with Amber Naslund), also broke ground when it was first released. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #506 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #506 - Host: Mitch Joel. What will near-to-future technologies do to change business as we know it? Better question: how are these technologies already being used in business? These are the questions that journalist, strategist, consultant and author, John C. Havens has been investigating. His latest business book is called, Heartificial Intelligence, and it looks at what our world could look like, if we don't begin figuring out what robots and machine learning-based business landscapes could look like. Marrying technology, economics, psychology and even fictional narratives, Havens paints a vivid portrait about what our future could look like. Havens is also the author of Hacking H(app)ness, and a writer for Mashable, The Guardian, and Slate. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #505 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #505 - Host: Mitch Joel. We have learned a lot in the past few years about what works in business. We have companies' valuations explode with massive growth. We've also re-invented the spaces that we work in. So, how has it all worked out? Do open-floor plans really work, or do they make employees miserable? Are there companies which really put their employees' welfare first, and their clients second? Are annual performance reviews really necessary? These are just some of the questions that Dr. David Burkus has been trying to answer. The culmination is his second book, Under New Management: How Leading Organizations Are Upending Business as Usual. David is a regular contributor to Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Psychology Today and 99U. When not speaking or writing, he's also an assistant professor of management at Oral Roberts University, where he teaches courses on organizational behavior, creativity, innovation, and strategic leadership. His first book was titled, The Myths of Creativity - The Truth About How Innovative Companies Generate Great Ideas, ands podcast is called, Radio Free Leader. I'm excited to welcome him back to the show. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #504 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #504 - Host: Mitch Joel. Simply put: Douglas Rushkoff makes my brain hurt, because he is so smart. He recently published his latest book, Throwing Rocks At The Google Bus, and it will make your head spin too. All of our assumptions about disruption, the digital economy, unicorns, valuations, and how all of this technological innovation has evolved will be questioned. Not to be a contrarian for contrarian's sake, this Media Scholar also happens to understand the underpinnings of our economy, and it will startle you. The book acts as a warning and - as with everything he touches - it will make you think deeply. Rushkoff (for those who do not know) is the person responsible for coining terms like 'digital natives', 'social currency' and 'viral media'. If you've never heard of Rushkoff, he's the winner of the Media Ecology Association's first Neil Postman award for Career Achievement in Public Intellectual Activity, he is an author, teacher, and documentarian who focuses on the ways people, cultures, and institutions create, share, and influence each other's values. He is Professor of Media Theory and Digital Economics at CUNY, technology and media commentator for CNN, digital literacy advocate for Codecademy.com and a lecturer on media, technology, culture and economics around the world. Trust me, you do not want to miss this episode. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #502 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.

Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #502 - Host: Mitch Joel. Every so often, someone (on Twitter, Facebook or whatever) asks if there are any good books for conducting a meeting? For me, there is only one such book, and it's Al Pittampalli's, Read This Before Our Next Meeting: The Modern Meeting Standard for Successful Organizations. To make it even better, it's a quick and simple read too. I was thrilled to see that Al is back with his second book, Persuadable: How Great Leaders Change Their Minds to Change the World. It's a book for our modern world. We think that real leadership is about having a vision and driving it, at all costs. It turns out that times have changed. Making great things happen is more about surrounding yourself with the right people and being very open to changing courses. While that may sound obvious... it is not. Enjoy the conversation...
