Paul Pape: Turning Strategy Into a Game Your Team Will Actually Play (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Paul Pape is the barkeep and game master at Gamify Business, where he turns strategy and operational problems into role-playing game mechanics. It started when a stuck CEO's love of gaming turned into a four-hour session, and that session became a consulting method. His framework splits people into linear thinkers and cloud thinkers, and his claim is that conventional planning documents fail roughly half of them. If you have ever watched a strategic plan die in a drawer while the people it descr
David Wilson: Findability Everywhere, and Why Cause Partnerships Are Defensible (opens the original)
Read excerpt
David Wilson, executive vice president at Zozimus, has been doing this since AltaVista. His argument is that search engine optimisation has become search everywhere optimisation: being findable wherever a decision gets made, rather than ranking for its own sake.

Read excerpt
Benjamin Behrooz of Branding Los Angeles builds brands for blue-collar and home-service businesses, and one of his most consistent recommendations is the one most marketers treat as a nice-to-have: show up in your community, repeatedly, on the record. His own firm runs an NYPD toy drive, donates to Shriners, and organises Santa Monica beach cleanups. He is candid that this is both genuine and good for the business, which is the honest version of a conversation nonprofits rarely get from a corpor
Rebecca Prejean: Accessibility Is a Retention Problem, Not a Compliance One (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Rebecca Prejean of EBGC advises nonprofit leaders on accessibility, and her argument reframes it: stop selling accommodation as compliance and start selling it as productivity and retention. For an organisation running on volunteers and a thin payroll, that is the version of the pitch that actually moves a board. Her route in was personal. Her son has autism, and the advocacy she learned for him became the work she now does for organisations. What she covers Why structured meetings are the cheap
