Having fun with experience marketing and product marketing
As we are nearing the end of 2020, I would like to look back to the “Avocado case” one more time. This small project was something I worked on in 2019 and it brought great traction with many of those that saw it. In all honesty, it surprised me big…
Without any Formal Leadership Position — Part 2
Some months ago, I had to lead people from different teams to complete a unified goal. A goal that nobody had budgeted for or had pretty big stakes in. Yet, I committed to making this happen. For the sake of readability, I decided to split this article into two pieces…

And why you should aim to move beyond it
The topic of this article has been on my list of articles to write for a long time. So, the fact that you are actually seeing this is, to me, quite an achievement. I think the reason it took so long to get it out was because I feel I…
I know what you’re thinking. Not another COVID-19 blog. Yet, if I drew your attention, feel free to carry on as I describe how I used COVID-19, and the whole working from home period to gear up my life in ways I had not expected.
