What motivates colleagues to share company posts on their #socialmedia channels? It's a topic I know a fair amount about. I conceptualized and built Pfizer's #employeeadvocacy program 5 years ago and remain radically obsessed with this space. When we first launched our program, which back in 2019 was a weekly email to colleagues rather than a robust digital platform, a survey of participants revealed that the main reason for sharing was to attract the attention of their leaders. Whether it was a like, a comment, or even just a 👍 , they wanted higher ups to acknowledge that they were seen. Recently, we asked colleagues the same question. Having a program in place for a while made what I think is a substantive difference in the results. This time around, the top reason colleagues shared company posts was to be seen as a leader in their respective spaces. In effect, to build their personal brands. This evolution is fascinating to me. When we first started talking to colleagues about sharing corporate posts, many didn't even have a LinkedIn account or saw it just for job hunting. It's important to gather this type of feedback on a regular basis, to make sure the content you are providing colleagues is what they want to share. How are you thinking about what your employee advocacy program should focus on? #EmployerBranding #ExecComms #PersonalBranding

I am not a fan of before and after weight loss photos. YES I want to cheer you on in what you’ve accomplished. I celebrate your wins and share in your success. They are an amazing way to tell the story of your journey. BUT there is a tendency to “shame” the person in the before picture. How did she get that way? Doesn’t he have a mirror? Why didn’t she just try harder? There are a million reason why one person achieves weight loss and others do not. I wish I had all the answers but I have a tremendous amount of compassion for anyone who is trying to improve themselves. The LAST person I want to shame is me. I’m going to post pictures that how far I’ve come, but I’m going to keep the “this was me” photo comparisons saved on my phone, for now. I will find other ways to tell my story. In this picture, for example, the challenge was posing on one leg and not toppling over. Mission accomplished! How do you honor your journey and keep shame out of the equation? #storytelling

A new valuation study conducted by Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health, and sponsored by Otsuka America Pharmaceutical, Inc. (Otsuka), revealed that if family caregiving was a business entity, it would be the largest revenue-generating company in the world. This report, “America’s Unseen Workforce: What Will it Take to Change the Future of Family Caregiving?” highlights the profound economic impact of deteriorating caregiver well-being with data suggesting there are a staggering 44.58 million caregivers in the U.S. performing the equivalent of an estimated $873.5 billion worth of labor each year. Family caregivers need more than recognition; they need urgent reform. In healthcare, in government, and in social support networks, it’s time to reciprocate their constant support. It’s time to stand with them the way they stand with their loved ones and offer the tools they may need for the health of others and themselves.

Tolerance. The Holocaust museum in L.A. isn’t actually called the Holocaust Museum like in many other places. It’s called The Museum of Tolerance. For me the name implies a clever educational premise, which is to investigate how hatred toward a minority can be tolerated as it grows over time from tropes and stereotypes to an applied racial theory, to violence, and ultimately to extermination. It’s an educational experiment which can and should be done at classrooms for most ages and would seek to evaluate what you would have tolerated and what you would have done were you exposed to increasing levels of hate speech toward any minority. We’re living out that experiment today. Freedom of speech is certainly an inalienable right, but like many other rights, it has its limits. To paraphrase Oliver Wendell Holmes: “your freedom of speech ends where my nose begins.” As such, let's evaluate whether the speech exercised by pro Palestinians should be permitted and tolerated: 📣“Globalize the intifada:” this would inevitably encompass such intifada tactics as the stabbing of women, ramming with cares baby carriages in bus stops, and of course suicide bombings targeting only civilians (there were 140 that resulted in 1,000 Israeli dead just between 2000-2003. Oh, and it will be global. 📣“From the river to the sea…:” everyone’s favorite ditty originally states in Arabic (and chanted in many campuses), that “from water to water, Palestine will be Arab,” i.e. cleansed of the 7 million Jews living there today. A genocidal chant if every there was one. 📣“Ya Hamas we love you, we support your rockets too:” more than 40,000 of those weapons (each capable of killing many) were lobbed into Israel since it departed Gaza twenty years ago. 📣“Burn Tel Aviv to the ground:” not sure I need to explain this one, except to say that this would deprive the Middle East of its only truly liberal city, and the million Jews who live there. How is your level of tolerance doing? Now let's swap Israel, Zionists and Jews with Blacks, LGBTQ, or any other minority and tell me if your answer would change. If enforcement on campuses – its timing and severity – would have differed. If social media would have been outraged or as tolerant. Courtesy of those mobs on campuses, we received a microcosmic glimpse into the pro-Palestinian vision come to life: a terror supporting state cleansed of Jews and those deemed by their selectors as anathema to their cause. It is perhaps fitting that this vision manifested at institutes of so-called higher learning. We exercise zero tolerance for bullying in schools. Zero tolerance for harassment at the workplace. Zero tolerance for racism and discrimination. And yet when it comes to Jews, those tolerance levels are sky high or absent altogether. On the eve of Holocaust Memorial Day (observed this Sunday), using our eyes, ears, and moral compass, let’s draw a line in the sand and exercise zero tolerance for Jew hatred. #antisemitism

🔬 The Power of AI in Oncology Research The landscape of oncology is evolving at an unprecedented pace, propelled by the transformative power of artificial intelligence (AI). In a recent interview with Targeted Therapies in Oncology, Christopher E. Mason, PhD, sheds light on the inevitable expansion of AI in cancer management and treatment. AI is revolutionizing how we process vast amounts of data, offering unprecedented insights and transforming the way healthcare providers access information. From AI-assisted tools like Tempus One to handheld devices like DermaSensor, the integration of AI is reshaping the oncological landscape, enhancing clinical decision-making and patient outcomes. Mason highlights the pivotal role of AI in basic research, particularly in DNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, where algorithms play a crucial role in deciphering complex tumor profiles. By harnessing the power of AI, researchers can analyze millions of data points simultaneously, uncovering intricate patterns within tumors and unlocking new frontiers in precision medicine. 🚀 Pioneering AI-Powered Oncological Tools Even now, AI-assisted oncological tools are gaining FDA premarket approval, such as Tempus One, the first generative AI-enabled clinical assistant. This platform, in collaboration with Lens Data Analytics, leverages advancements in generative AI to seamlessly analyze patient data, providing invaluable insights for clinicians worldwide. 🔍 Navigating Challenges and Ensuring Responsible AI Implementation Despite its remarkable potential, the widespread adoption of AI in oncology comes with its own set of challenges and concerns. From bias in algorithms to privacy implications, it's essential to tread carefully and ensure that AI technologies are deployed responsibly. #oncology #AI #ArtificialIntelligence

BRILLIANT! The integration of emotional elements into visually creative concepts can yield significant advantages and impactful outcomes in advertising. Such initiatives have the potential to captivate audiences in a crowded media environment by leveraging emotive storytelling and striking visuals. By eliciting powerful emotions like joy, empathy, or nostalgia, these advertisements establish a profound connection with viewers, resonating on a personal level and leaving a lasting impression. Ultimately, by incorporating emotional elements into their visual creative concepts, brands can differentiate themselves in the market, gain a competitive edge, and cultivate enduring relationships with consumers. Through the strategic use of emotions in their messaging, brands can establish deeper connections with their target audience, drive engagement, and ultimately achieve their marketing objectives with heightened impact and resonance. Kudos to the executive creative director and the team who were part of this genius concept. #creativity #innovative #emotional #memroable

Y'all...can I hop back on my soapbox for a second? Can we remove ideas of what people's hair, etc. should look like in a job interview? In my younger days, I would make sure that I didn't have braids or my natural hair in job interviews because companies will not hire you. To them, it's unpresentable. In truth, I blow my hair out sometimes, sometimes I braid it, sometimes I let my natural curls fly. Now, I do that even in interviews. I do not have a chemical relaxer, but wanted to call out that many Black women do (or did) because it's hard to get a job with your natural hair. Can you imagine? Well, similar to most adjustments like this, that kills people. Emotionally and mentally, but also physically. It's chemicals seeping into your scalp and bloodstream. Lots of Black women will die of cancer trying to meet a Eurocentric standard of grooming. It's a little bit absurd because one thing we are gonna do as a community is indulge in self-care. "If you look good, you feel good. If you feel good, you do good." Literally, have heard this all my life. If you think natural hair shows unprofessionalism or is unkempt, then I know that you know little to nothing about Black folks. We don't have to look like white people to work with white people. I like my hair. No...I LOVE my hair, it feels like my superpower. I've got all the power of the Motherland and the ancestor in these roots. Beginning to think that if I keep needing to hop up here, that maybe I should stay up here until some concrete movement occurs. Expect me to show up looking and being Black. Because I am... #diversityequityinclusion #dei #blackwomenmatter #themoreyouknow https://lnkd.in/ex2eJ_d3
