I’ve been at my agency for 6 months working primarily on one account and yesterday they told me I’d be moving to a larger, more prestigious account due to the social strategist on that team getting a new job.

I’m nervous 😬 but I welcome the change because nothing grows in comfort zones.

Seeking some advice on what are some good questions to ask everyone when moving to a new account?

How do I not let imposter syndrome get the best of me?

Best practices for staying organized w/a new acct?

Here’s what I like to do when moving on to a new account…

1) Listen to the team. Preferably 1:1
2) Listen to the client. Again 1:1
3) Retrospective. What have we been doing? How does that align (or not) with what team and client say?
4) Competitive review
5) Internal POV presentation. This is what I’ve heard… what I’ve seen… what I think.

Get consensus on #5, then use team to sell that vision to client. As the strategy lead, you should own the vision. This is how you can take that ownership without running roughshod over anyone.

You can do it!

Hi! I currently work at a hospital as a per diem pharmacist and have been there for over 12 years. We haven’t had a raise in over 6 years. I am going to talk to my boss soon to ask for a raise. I was wondering what other pharmacists make in the Philadelphia area so I know how much I should ask for. Thank you!

Long time in the making; but we finally sold off from our 50% HWB short. We had two tests at the 3400 level, getting as high as 3420 today before the sell off. Momentum and pessimism over lack of stimulus could take us to the 3107 target quickly, nearly a 10 percent decline over the next month. Stay short my friends. It's going to get bumpy.

LMAO what do Afro Latinos look like? I just asked a creative to include more pictures of Afro-Latinos in our hispanic messaging and she said "I tried to find pictures of videos that looked authentic but they didn't have the right look, it's a very specific look". So no black people in the ad cause this white passing lady needs to gate keep who looks latina enough. The blond, blue eyed women in the photos passed though... UGHH.
