The CMO From Kodak You Outta Know
I had the privilege to attend the 1 year anniversary of Gravity Summit at UCLA this past Monday and I must say that it was well worth staying up there the night before and not having to rush to the conference in the morning. It ended up being an eventful and relax-full weekend and an all around great conference. As we know, being involved with Social Media, it is always good habits to take it off-line once in a while and get in a room filled with like minded people and if you happen to be part of the social media conference, then you know the talent they were able to pull was of the highest caliber in the industry. Not to mention re-connecting with those that I had seen at Harvard at another previous Gravity Summit. I recorded an inspirational video the night before (talking about the Three H’s- Hustle, Heart, and Helpfulness) that can be seen here if you’d like http://www.socialnetworkingsandiego.com/social-networking/twas-the-night-before-gravity-summit-heart-hustle-and-helpfulness/
Social media for business is still the hot topic but after being involved in this trend for the last year and a half can sometimes be draining. But the gravity summit expo just happen to give me that re-energizing boost I needed to re-spark the deep passion I have for this topic.
The content provided during the event was exceptional, but there was one presentation early on that really had an impact on me- an ecstatic, passionate, and over-the-top presentation from Kodak’s CMO Jeffrey Hayzlett. Now I hadn’t heard of Jeff before, but I knew how involved Kodak has been in social media and the drastic changes they had made to their workforce so I was interested in hearing some of the behind the scenes strategies. Not only did I get insight to these practices and policies, but he even had me laughing out loud!! I shared one of the better video clips below, but if you’re interested in the entire highlighted clips from the Keynote you can view them here: Gravity Summit Keynote CMO of Kodak

Thank you for this excellent blog post. Every now and then, the greatest ideas originate from the blogs you actually may not expect. Up unitll now, I decided not to give a whole lot of thought to placing comments on web log entries and have left opinions even less. Looking at your great piece of writing, is going to encourage me to do this on a regular basis.
Keep in mind you will not always win. Several days, the most ingenious individual will taste defeat. However , there is, in this case, always another day – soon after you have done the best to achieve success today.
53. of course like your website however you have to take a look at the spelling on several of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I to find it very bothersome to tell the reality then again Iˇ¦ll definitely come again again.
