    Public Workshops and Roundtables: How Will Journalism Survive the Internet Age?

    Jon Hansen

    Date / Time:

    Category: Business

    Call-in Number: (347) 326-9234


    The Federal Trade Commission ("FTC" or "Commission") announces that it will hold two days of public workshops on December 1 and 2, 2009, to examine the Internet's impact on journalism in newspapers, magazines, broadcast television and radio, and cable television. The Internet has changed how many consumers receive news and altered the advertising landscape. Low entry barriers on the Internet have allowed new voices of journalism to emerge; the Internet- enabled links from one web site to another have given consumers easy access to all types of news; efficiencies available through the Internet have substantially reduced advertising costs. These and other changes related to the Internet have benefitted consumers greatly. On October 7th, 2009 the Federal Trade Commission announced that they would be hosting Workshops and Roundtables asking the all important question, "How Will Journalism Survive the Internet Age?" Our June 11th segment titled "Has Blogging Crossed The Threshold of Legitimacy" focused on asking the tough questions surrounding this very issue. Based on the realization that the ever increasing influence of the new social media especially through blogging had not gone unnoticed, the FTCs recent decision to institute standards holding bloggers accountable for what they write, now appears to be just the beginning of a sweeping examination of the influence and responsibilities of social media as a whole. But what are the consequences of the emerging social media both in the immediate future and long term? In today's show I welcome an international guest panel to expand on the discussion from our June 11th show, specifically looking at the continuing sustainability of traditional models in the areas of "journalism in newspapers, magazines, broadcast television and radio."

    Socially Branded Journalism: Crossing the Generational Divide

    Jon Hansen

    Date / Time:

    Category: Business


    On February 27th, 1968 Walter Cronkite closed his broadcast by introducing “an analysis that must be speculative, personal, [and] subjective.” He was of course talking about the Vietnam War, and in particular the Tet offensive. While those of us who have not yet cracked the half century mark in terms of years on this planet may have only a general awareness of what history has told us was a "police action" that could not be won, Cronkite's words created a ripple effect that unknowingly and ironically has come to symbolize our fast paced, 7/24 instant access social media world. Prior to that late February broadcast, news reporters did just that . . . report the news, or in the famous words of Sargent Joe Friday, "just the facts." When Cronkite "overtly and figuratively stepped out from behind the microphone to add his personal commentary to the news," wrote Lee Cary in the July 18th, 2009 American Thinker, "Cronkite issued an implicit license to his journalistic colleagues to interject personal opinions into their factual reporting of the news." But unlike Cronkite, who "clearly labeled it as personal opinion," Cary laments that "many MSM news personalities today weave their opinions into reporting," perhaps in the process unintentionally obfuscating facts through a lens of personal viewpoint. This of course is the hallmark of today's social media and the "personal branding" phenomenon that provides everyone with at least 15 minutes of fame (or longer). Personality, according to Adam Singer, is what is woefully lacking from the highly polished and professional blogs from traditional mediums. But is there a balance? With his smartly placed fedora and colorful bow tie, Dr. John Tantillo is a gentleman's gentleman, and someone whose approach to responsible social media branding reflects the thoughtful journalistic integrity that Cronkite came to symbolize. But that's just my opinion tune in to form your own.

    Fear of Success and the Influence of Positive Mindset

    In yesterday's segment I opened with the following reference "American psychologist, Matina Souretis Horner, who was the 6th President of Radcliffe College is known for pioneering the concept of fear of success." An article from March 20, 1972 in Time Magazine indicated that "Even though the number of educated women is at an alltime high, the representation of women in the traditionally male professions is still extremely low. One likely reason for this paradox, says Harvard Psychologist Matina Horner, is that U.S. women actively fear success." The article continued with "The revelation about fear of success came from the one sex "cue" included in the experiment. Horner had modified the familiar TAT (Thematic Apperception Test*) to require males to write about the success of another male, females on the success of a female. Asked to write about a mythical girl at the top of her medical school class, more than 65% of the women associated her success with depression, illness and sometimes even death. Asked to write about a boy in the same position, 90% of the men equated his success with happiness and prosperity. The women obviously seemed afraid of success." Finally, "Horner discovered that women's fear of success increases with their ability, and that the greater their fear, the less well they do in competition with men. She also found that fear of success increases as women progress farther in school, affecting as many as 90% of college juniors." Joining me today to talk about how, and to what degree things have changed since Horner's research was presented in the 1972 article is Ingrid Elfver. Ingrid is one of the world's leading mindset experts, helping women (and highly evolved men) to understand how their current mindset might be hurting their business; why most entrepreneurs struggle to maintain a positive mindset; and how they can develop and maintain a positive mindset – one that can withstand any fear, doubt, challenge, or crisis.

    Stop Sabotaging Your Sales Career?

    American psychologist, Matina Souretis Horner, who was the 6th President of Radcliffe College is known for pioneering the concept of fear of success. A March 20th, 1972 Time Magazine article highlighted Horner's "revelation about fear of success" through the modification of" the familiar TAT (Thematic Apperception Test*)." While the results in and of themselves warrants a separate show, are the fears that all of us to varying degrees experience in our careers and personal lives actually sabotaging our ability to succeed? According to Tim Davis and Nick Thomas, Americas Small Business Success Coaches and Marketing Evangelists there are 41 common self sabotaging sales behaviors. In their new book "Dude, Seriously" Davis and Thomas show you how to fix these behaviors before you go broke! In today's show, I am joined by Tim Davis to dig a little deeper in an effort to understand why we do the things we do in our careers, and how his and Thomas' insights led to the writing of their book.

    Sociology and Business Intelligence

    While it is easy to fall into the trap of dismissing Business (BI) as semantically-based Madison Avenue "buzz words," they are in effect a very real part of a much larger picture. A picture "where the traditional lines associated with functional silos are ceding to a more holistic or enterprise-wide understanding of operational areas that were previously off limits." Specifically, and much like the hard lines that once defined departmental responsibilities and focus, data or intelligence was compartmentalized into neat packages of limited enterprise-wide understanding. With the advent of Software-as-a Service (SaaS) and Bi-Portal architectures, organizational divides of compartmentalized intelligence have been bridged to meet the complex needs of dynamic, globally engaged corporations. In a world that is becoming increasingly competitive, BI represents the difference between profit and loss, success or closure, jobs or unemployment. How does your company make the decisions that affect your livelihood? Joining me today to discuss the emergence of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) based Business Intelligence platforms is Viador's Vice President, Services Thomas Abbott.

    The Leader Undone: When the Wheels Come Off!

    Dennis McCallum observed that "The biggest problem with many of us is that we are soft from too much success. We are like a child riding a bike on training wheels who thinks he has actually learned to ride. His parents warn him, "It's a little harder when you take the wheels off," but until you actually do take them off, the kid continues to enjoy a false sense of mastery. Once the wheels come off, the child may have to endure a few nasty crackups that could lead to tears, and even a refusal to ride any more. But without removing the wheels, he will never learn to ride." McCallum added that "Leaders accustomed to nothing but success become, themselves, hard to lead. They are always convinced they are right, and will fight to preserve their base as though their self-worth depended on it, which it often does. In their dread of failure, they may become downright unethical and manipulative. They find it hard to listen to the wisdom of others because they can't help but observe that their own ideas seem to be working perfectly well." The above observations raise a number of interesting questions including whether success is the precursor to failure, and conversely if failure is the precursor and a prerequisite to success. Returning to the PI Window on Business Show share both his research and corresponding insights on the characteristics that tend to derail leaders, and render them ineffective is acclaimed author and lecturer Dr. John Ullmen.

    A Buy American Exemption: The Maine View with Candidate for Governor Matt Jacobson

    "My vision is for Maine to compete and win in this new economy. We will build strong communities that attract jobs and families, providing choice and opportunity to our workers. We will create an economic climate in Maine that is world class and competitive with other states and the global economy. Maine can be a place where hard work is rewarded with opportunity, where our children can realize their dreams and our people have hope. We have an extraordinary state and talented people. We should be doing better, and we have a responsibility to create a brighter future for the next generation. Our jobs. Our families. Our communities. These are my priorities." While our September 30th 90-Minute Special examined the impact of the Buy American Policy on the domestic as well as international economies at the highest level of political office, the question that remained is simply this . . . does an exemption translate into tangible business opportunities for Canadian-based suppliers in the US public sector market? In an effort to answer this question, PI Window on Business is delving deeper into the issue from a front-line, real-world perspective that started on October 14th, and continues today with Maine's Republican gubernatorial candidate Matt Jacobson. Given it's proximity to Canada one would perhaps consider Maine to be one of the States where a reasonable percentage of the 7 million US-based jobs are dependent upon an open trade agreement with its neighbor to the north. However, and as Jacobson stressed in a June 2009 article, “We are on a path where there is a very real danger that we will be the generation that leaves [Maine] in a worse state than we found it. I can’t let that happen.” Against this backdrop of legitimate concern for his State, can a balance between sustaining open trade with a foreign country while stimulating local business survival and growth be achieved in a time of economic downturn?

    Health in the Boardroom: A Question of Time Management or Exercise?

    Angioplasty or Exercise, which would you choose? This was the title of a blog post on Ecademy that I received from Dr. Gaby Cora in late August. As I eventually had to admit that the tightening waste line of my pants had nothing to do with being shrunk in the wash or some cruel conspiracy on the part of my tailor taking-in the waste band, Dr. Gaby's timely post was an exclamation point that at 50 my former six pack was threatening to turn into a one pack (or paunch). The only answer to her question crystallized when she added "This is obviously not a surprise to many but what may surprise you is how few people exercise consistently knowing the benefits to the heart, the brain and overall Wellbeing." With more options than time, many of us find ourselves on the unhealthy treadmill of a busy schedule, poor eating habits and an exercise routine that amounts to a power walk to the fridge for a late night snack. Did I mention poor eating habits? While my mother lived to just shy of her 90th birthday, my father suffered his first heart attack in his early fifties. Succumbing to the statistics of the day in which the expected life span after a coronary was limited to 13 years, he died at the relatively young age of 66. While I, unlike my father, do not smoke I cannot help but contemplate whose hereditary influence will be most predominant in determining my longevity. I can only hope that like my head of hair - I am the only man in the family to have hair beyond the age of 35 - I too follow my mother's gene influence and live to enjoy my grandchildrens' wedding. However, and as we will discover today in our conversation with Dr. Gaby, we do not have to be spectators of hope. We can actually be "pro-active" (emphasis on active) influencers of blissful longevity. Am I glad that Dr. Gaby sent me her post . . . now where is my old football jacket from high school?

    Generating Tangible Revenue from a Buy American Exemption

    In the September 30th PI Window on Business Buy American Special I had a brief interview with Canada's Trade Minister Stockwell Day that simplified a complex issue (Note: here is the Direct Link to my interview with Canada’s Trade Minister http://www.box.net/shared/static/8ax5zix6z7.mp3) Underneath the complexities of the Buy American debate is a simple question . . . now that Canada has closed the Congressional loophole that justified locking Canadian business out of the US market, will the US Congress yield to popular opinion and continue to keep its economic borders closed to its northern neighbor? Of even greater significance is whether an exemption will influence buying decisions at the State and Municipal levels of the US. To be succinct, will a policy that grants access mean little if the actual people who award the contracts are inclined to support US-based vendors only? Joining me today to answer this question as well as provide insights on how Canadian-based suppliers can position themselves to capitalize on the opportunities in the US public sector is expert author, speaker and consultant Judy Bradt. As the Principal of Summit Insight in Washington DC, Judy’s been covered by national media including SBTV, ABC Radio, the Financial Post, Fortune Small Business, and Entrepreneur Magazine. From 1988 to 2003, Judy was the top specialist in US government contracting at the Canadian Embassy in Washington DC.
