If you are interested in making content or comms, especially in B2B, I would strongly encourage you to take a good hard look at the website of the Tony Blair Institute. To my mind, it really is best in class. I am not surprised he is back. "The institute’s output has also helped change Mr. Blair’s image, Mr. Campbell, his former spokesman, said. The former prime minister saw a gap for relatively nonideological research focusing on technocratic policymaking and tackling challenges such as artificial intelligence, digital policy and relations with the European Union. "With about 800 staff members scattered around the world in Abu Dhabi, Accra, San Francisco, Singapore and New York, and a sleek, modern office in the West End of London, the institute has even had influence over the Conservative government, Ms. Rutter said, pointing to Mr. Blair’s proposal during the coronavirus pandemic to structure its vaccine program around giving as many people as possible a first shot. "Mr. Campbell, his former spokesman, added that the work of the institute showed Mr. Blair in a new light, making money not just for himself but also “to build an organization, the fruits of which people are now seeing.” https://lnkd.in/ejEPm2as #B2BContent #CommunicationsExcellence #TonyBlairInstitute #TechnocraticPolicymaking #DigitalPolicyInsights

How many slides should you put in your powerpoint presentation? The answer is: it does not matter. The reason is that there are only two slides in any deck that matter. The first one and the second one. The first one should tell your audience what your big idea is. Put that right up front, while everyone one is paying attention. The second slide addresses whether you are able to deliver that idea or not. That is your creds slide. It should imply "My name is Jane and I have done this before and it was a great success." All the other slides in your deck are supporting cast. But you absolutely must address the question in the mind of your audience in the first two slides: What is your idea and can you'd deliver it. If you don't that immediately the clock is ticking. And you are testing patience of your audience... Good luck

Terrific reporting: "The stern bureaucracy of signs directing people’s actions, seen everywhere in Russia but particularly intimidating for travelers at passport-control points, had become powerless. "An explosion had torn through the passport-control hall. Flat screens dangled from the roof by wires. Outside, rubles fluttered on the roadside, uncollected by the Ukrainians." #writing #journalism #russia #ukraine #war https://lnkd.in/e8_F3z-G

Anyone fancy listening to two billionaires discuss how poor people are the problem in the world? Want to hear their solution? If they are in a job, fire them. Thanks, Elon Musk! If they want to escape poverty by moving country, close the border. Thanks Donald Trump! These two evil clowns want to beggar us all. But, I wonder, who will buy their cr*p then? #donaldtrump #elonmusk https://lnkd.in/eVUtjFgZ

Some US billionaires such as Peter Thiel and Elon Musk believe that if they undermine the rules that govern society they will economically benefit. They will be free to make billions! Not only that, they will have power. They will be Oligarchs. They are naive. The truth is, the rules and oversight they are attempting to destroy benefit them. Those rules protect their wealth. Take a look at a society where the rules do not apply. In Russia, oligarchs can have everything taken away from them in a blink of an eye. There is nothing they can do about it. Elon Musk would do well to realize the rules of society protect him. Without them, he would be a target for any strongman and mob, who felt like it. Without the rules Musk does not like, civil war would indeed be inevitable. And he might even be one of its victims. #elonmusk #democracy #oligarchy #anarchy #tyranny

Civil war is inevitable. That was Elon Musk's pronouncement on the UK yesterday, following a weekend of rioting by hard right groups in English city centres. I am struck by how out of touch and ahistorical Musk's comment is. Has he cracked a history book, like, ever? As others more learned than I have pointed out, the English did not have a civil war over Corn Laws, the Somme or loss of empire. We are hardly going to kick off over this. The ugly part is that one senses Musk and his hate-spewing platform X would be pleased if we did. What an odd-ball he is. #elonmusk #civilwar

The tech world is buzzing with the recent ruling against Google in a landmark antitrust case. Key takeaways: Judge Amit P. Mehta ruled that Google violated antitrust laws by stifling competition in internet search. This case draws parallels to the 2000 Microsoft antitrust ruling, which reshaped tech competition. Google's practice of paying billions for default search positions on devices came under scrutiny. The ruling emphasizes the power of defaults and the critical role of user data in search dominance. This decision could have far-reaching implications for other tech giants. It may change how we approach competition in tech. Principles of fair competition remain crucial. #TechNews #AntitrustLaw #DigitalCompetition #GoogleRuling https://lnkd.in/eeNNZriQ

I think of the US interest rate as a speedometer for the global economy. Whether the number goes up or down matters, and your business and mine can feel it fast. The Federal Reserve has opened the door to a possible interest rate cut in September. • Fed Chair Jerome Powell hinted a rate cut could be "on the table" at the September meeting, if inflation continues to cool • The Fed's current rate of 5.3% is a two-decade high. • Recent data shows inflation slowing, with the Fed's preferred price index at 2.5% annually in June • The job market is showing early signs of weakness. The Fed may soon consider balancing both its inflation and employment mandates This potential shift will effect borrowing costs to consumer spending patterns. #EconomicTrends #FederalReserve #BusinessStrategy #ContentMarketing https://lnkd.in/eiBueqeu
