Has anything changed? Does this sound familiar?

My blog focuses on things that matter from a marketing and social media perspective. After watching this video I wonder to myself how can/are companies addressing the concerns that 12 year old Severn Cullis-Suzuki talks about in this video. A video that is 16 years old! Listen to what she is saying and ask yourself what has changed since then. Here’s what she’s up to today. 

Severn: How can we help you? You are a hero.

How one leader is impacting society

One of the many CEOs I follow is Richard Branson. He's a visionary and believes in giving back to the community and helping people. Entrepreneurs can have a positive impact on society. In fact, Peter Drucker has stated that a key objective for a business should be how it will impact society. This video gives you a first had look at how this can and is being done. UPDATE: Richard Branson is now on Twitter.

Going Global! It's not that hard

 

Google Analytics, as many of you will know, is a free service that you can use to track how many people are visiting your site. It tells you things like how many unique visitors you are getting, what pages they read, how long they read them and where they live. There is a bunch of other things that it tells you. What is amazing to me is that this service is free and that it provides rich reports that tell me a lot about the people that read stuff on this blog.

The map above shows you where people are from that have been reading my blog over the past month. As I earn and build a readership (hopefully more comments will be coming to create some debate and discussion) I hope to build some global relationships with business professionals. This blog could be a good way to get that done. What do you think?
