Presentation Skills Boot Camp Recap - Michael Weiss

Posted By Administration, Monday, March 21, 2016

What a great class this time around. So many companies and agencies were in attendance, it felt like a great representation of the advertising industry in Los Angeles. We focused a lot of the “fear of public speaking” and how to deal with it - especially the exercises to burn off excess cortisol and adrenaline. We also spent a great deal of time discussing the Four Personalities and how to deal with each type when giving a presentation. The highlight of course was watching the final presentations and seeing how much people improved from the initial Personal Story exercise. I have to say this was a very engaged group and we had a lot of fun while learning a lot!

Build Your Personal Brand: Leadership Tools For Women - Recap

Posted By Web Admin, Friday, February 26, 2016
Our first class geared specifically to women was a sellout. Women from a diverse group of companies and at different stages in their careers dove into the five aspects of their personal brand: appearance, associations, reputation, talent and skills, and voice. Chelsea, our instructor, challenged women to think more specifically about these aspects - how to build them, own them and love them.

Takeaways from Programmatic Summit 2015

Posted By Erika Maya, Thursday, November 12, 2015

Programmatic Takeaways from Programmatic Summit 2015 has transformed the digital media landscape, creating efficiencies on both the buy and sell side, as well as providing greater scale and allowing data to be utilized in new ways. From employing true programmatic creative methodologies to rethinking internal organizational structures and ensuring that the entire digital ecosystem has the training necessary for proper execution, the key to making programmatic most effective—and maximizing ROI—lies in implementation.

 

On Wednesday, November 11th, over 600 people were in attendance at our second annual Programmatic Summit, and we heard from over 30 experts in the programmatic space. We learned about fraud, attribution, programmatic native to monetization approaches, programmatic TV and training the workforce. Check out the photos and highlights below (video coming soon!).
