Are You Focused on Menial Metrics or Meaningful Value for Your Social Media Community?

Are you focusing on menial metrics, vanity metrics and things that are really not moving your business and life forward? Or are you staying laser focused on the right things. Are you investing your time, mindshare and effort on tactics, strategies and big ideas, concepts and innovations that can bring real meaning to your business, your life, your customers, your community and anyone that comes in contact with your brand?

Are you taking the time to practice what you preach? Are you walking the walk? Are you preaching brand humanization, being human, power of relationships, authenticity, and the importance of connecting with real human beings but plastering your face in your phone at every face to face training, event and human encounter you have?

Depending on when you are reading this… as you start your week, start your weekend, start the weekend, or end your weekend I simply ask you to think about these two words… menial and meaningful. Make sure you are focus on the right one.

Will AI replace white-collar jobs?

AI will replace tasks and compress certain roles, especially entry-level and output based work. But leadership, accountability, and strategic judgement remain deeply human responsibilities. It's human plus machines. The power of AI is mind and machine working together.

What kind of jobs are most at risk from AI?

Jobs that rely heavily on repeatable output, predictable processes, and low-context decision-making are most vulnerable.
