It always shocks me when I hear someone say that they were surprised a meeting went well.
Why wouldn’t it?
Nobody starts a meeting thinking ‘I’m going to be as difficult and objectionable as possible.’
The problem is, if you go into a meeting expecting it to be awkward.
Chances are it will be.
And you'll be on the end of a self-fulfilling prophecy.
If you’re there to add value
share your expertise
and offer support,
how can it be anything but good?
But as George Benson said, “Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all.”
If you drop to your knees and say “I’m not worthy”
chances are, you won’t be.

What's on my mind
About Me
- Kevin Jackson
- The glasses are important, since I’m almost totally blind in one eye. This means I have zero depth perception. Instead of making snap judgements, I have to think around a subject and look again to try and gain a sense of perspective. And that’s what I’m doing here - taking a different view of the trends and patterns around us to see if they’re as close as they seem, or further away than we thought. There’s not a discipline within the communications mix that I haven’t spent time in – what connects them though, is my passion for igniting advocacy and word-of-mouth. I’ve also worked on multi-platform campaigns for some of the world’s biggest brands, we are all on first-name terms. Ultimately, whether it’s a consumer, business or internal audience, no one is exempt from my belief in engaging experiential communications. Over the last four years ago, I’ve been busy developing relationships across the telecoms, technology, FMCG, retail and energy sectors, to name a few.
