Which Do You Value More: Your Brand or Your Generation?
Do you see and interact with others through a “generational lens”? This past weekend I attended an educational curriculum for professional image consultants that examined the four generations: Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Gen X, and Generation Y, and how to apply this information into our practices. The reasons for appreciating generational differences and similarities are twofold. First, there’s a chance to help workplace culture understand how to bridge the communication gap between generational differences. Second, is an opportunity to better understand an individual on the basis of his or her generational identity.
Facing the Real Mark Zuckerberg
It’s striking how Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg hasn’t evolved his image and style one bit, despite his immense business success. Though his character portrayal was fascinating in the Golden Globe-winning movie, The Social Network, it’s not the basis of my assessment. The real life Mark Zuckerberg still dresses like a scrappy college dormitory resident, despite his meteoric ascent to the height of the business world. Age notwithstanding, it’s time for him to put effort and intention into his image and show that he’s not just grown up, but a leader.
Socks: Dressing from the Bottom Up
I love socks. In fact, I confess that I’m so inspired by the socks in my collection that choosing an outfit for the day is sometimes built around which socks I have selected. Anyone who always wears plain socks will not see any inspiration from this idea. But anyone daring enough to wear colorful socks will see the brilliance of it.
In Pursuit of Perfection
Last week my partner and I enjoyed a wonderful holiday jaunt to Waikiki. The weather was perfectly tropical: a couple of sunny days, a couple of rainy days, and all days totally humid and steamy. No matter the time of day or what the weather was like, it was the perfect place to be in search of the perfect Mai Tai. Even though the Mai Tai was created in Northern California, this drink is best known to be enjoyed beachside in Waikiki.
