When someone new starts at your agency, introduce yourself and what you do (role, job title). Basic meeting etiquette.

Yes! 1,000x yes. I’m a freelancer so I get to experience this 1-2 a year. I say my name and why I’m there, usually at a meeting with many people. No one introduces themselves. Freakin bizarre

Irony: socially-crippled people who can’t communicate, in charge of mass communication through social media.

AMEN. Had to prompt people on this earlier and it was rough. Telling me your name alone gives me absolutely zero context of your role, especially in a sea of new names.

Here is my idea for a startup! I collect all the data from career transitions and use Data Analytics to predict the most likely career transitions. I could start with consulting. What do you guys think about this? I would be able to predict based on your firm(mbb, big4), your experience, which role you are likely to move (Faang pm, strategy manager, move to mbb). I have all the data to do this, but wanted your thoughts. Would the output of this be relevant to you?
