Dirk R. reacted on thisDirk R. reacted on thisThis week I brought our US sales team together for workshops on unlocking more value for advertisers on X. From Beautiful Ads and Lead Gen Ads to MCP and the latest Ads Manager features, we dug into how our product and platform help brands reach the right audiences and drive real results. X is where everything happens: every game, premiere, launch, and conversation. Brands that win on X connect with the audiences who matter in the moments that matter. They build an always-on presence that earns authenticity and relevance, and they turn that real-time engagement into actual business results. Connect. Own. Convert. It’s this team’s expertise, creativity, and commitment that bring our strategy to life and help advertisers take advantage of the full potential of X.

Dirk R. reacted on thisDirk R. reacted on thisHere’s the often unspoken thing: we can’t expect people to thrive at work if we ignore what they’re carrying at home. 17 million Americans are raising kids while caring for a parent. I cared for my mother-in-law, and I’ve watched friends juggle it while raising kids too. In our Sandwich Generation Report, 80% said these dual responsibilities hit them suddenly, 82% feel financially strained as a result, and 55% said they cost them a raise or promotion. This piece from Straight Arrow News is a good reminder of why caregiver support matters: https://bit.ly/4iaQOHuWhat keeps parents up at night?

Dirk R. reacted on thisDirk R. reacted on thisPinterest is one of the few places on the internet where the experience gets better the more you use it. I see it every time I open the app. Every search, every save, every board makes the next recommendation more personal. That flywheel is real, and it's accelerating. We just shared Pinterest's Q3 2026 earnings: $1.174 billion in revenue, up 12% year over year, and a record 661 million monthly active users. That's our 13th straight quarter of record users. Gen Z is now 57% of our platform and our most engaged cohort. The opportunity ahead is significant. Our users come here to shop before they know what they want to buy. That's the most valuable moment in advertising, and we own it. I’m most excited to see what’s happening under the hood. 📌 Approximately 70% of search journeys on Pinterest now begin with a proactive recommendation before a user types a single word. Our AI understands what someone wants before they find the words for it. 📌 New consumer products like Restyle launched in beta, letting users reimagine a room from a photo, with shoppable products built in, powered by our own Canvas model. 📌 New ad products like Visual Search Ads and App Promotion are both in beta, opening new lower-funnel budget pools 📌 Our most sophisticated advertisers are integrating their own measurement systems with our AI bidding tools, and they are seeing it pay off. Grateful to our partners and to the Pinterest team who continue to build something people love to use. Full speed ahead

Dirk R. reacted on thisDirk R. reacted on thisYour employees may be caregivers and not even realize it. Care.com CareBenefits’ 2026 Future of Benefits Report found that only 37% of employees call themselves caregivers, but nearly twice as many are actually providing care. And just 20% feel “very supported” when it affects their work. Benefits alone won’t close that gap. Managers need simple ways to start the conversation, and Open Enrollment is a great time to begin. But caregiving doesn’t follow a benefits calendar, so these conversations shouldn’t end there. Here are three moves to make before enrollment opens 👇Caregiving Benefits Need More Than an Open Enrollment AnnouncementCaregiving Benefits Need More Than an Open Enrollment AnnouncementWes Burke

Dirk R. reacted on thisDirk R. reacted on thisIt’s here. 📖 Plan To Take On the World! is officially out today, and I only have two words: THANK YOU. First, to our PTTOW! team. Without you, there is no PTTOW!, and there is no book. You built the community where every one of these conversations came to life. And to every person who sat across from me and shared their story, their fire, their impossible dream. This book belongs to you. I just got lucky enough to write it down. If you’ve ever hit a goal and still felt like something was missing, this book is your permission slip to go after what’s actually yours. Something deeper. Something only you can bring into the world. Terry Hardy Samantha Rabstein Kathlene Stakely Ryan Boughan Ryan Brenner Nicole Rosofsky Leann (Scibelli) Capraro Noel E. A.

For thirty years I’ve done one job: take something complicated and make it simple for the people who have the most to lose if they get it wrong — women, children, and families.<br><br>Right now that job is school health.<br><br>Most school nurses document care in a system that was never built for clinical work — a student information system with a health tab bolted on. The result is fragmented records, missed patterns, unclaimed Medicaid revenue, and a level of clinical risk no district would tolerate in any other setting. That gap is where kids get hurt.<br><br>MyCabinet School Health closes it. It’s the purpose-built EHR for K–12: SOC 2 Type 2 audited, designed with school nurses rather than for them, with a parent app that closes the communication gap in real time. We launched with Cobb County Schools as our founding partner and now serve districts across Georgia, Texas, Indiana, and Tennessee. This is my focus, and it is the most important work of my career.<br><br>MyCabinet, our health plan division, extends the same idea to families at home. Our patented virtual medicine cabinet gives members one trusted place to manage their medications and health essentials — because the moment people need answers is rarely the moment they can find them.<br><br>None of this started in a boardroom. It started with my own health experience, which taught me how hard it is to find the right care even when you know how to look. In 2010 I founded the Women’s Choice Award to fix that — building the trusted referral source that helps consumers identify hospitals and providers delivering excellence to women and their families.<br><br>Before that, as Group Publisher of Working Woman and Working Mother magazines, I helped set the corporate standards that defined how American companies treat women in the workplace.<br><br>

How much does brand influence truly shape executive decision-making today? At Franco, we believe reputation, trust and influence are critical to business performance. That’s why, as Michigan's exclusive Public Relations Global Network member, we’re participating in the 2026 PRGN Influence Insights Survey, a global research initiative exploring the role of brand influence in critical decisions. If you’re in a marketing, communications and/or executive role, we’d value your perspective. 🕒 The survey takes about 15 minutes. 📅 It's open through March 10, 2026. 📊 Participants may request a copy of the key findings. The insights gathered will inform global trends and help organizations better understand how influence shapes growth, resilience and leadership. If you're interested in seeing last year’s results, I’m happy to share those, as well (comment or message me, and I'll share the link). https://lnkd.in/gTn6Y9Bn

Business architecture gives companies a dynamic view of their operating model (i.e., how they deliver value to their customers, how well they are executing on their strategy, etc) and pinpoints where they can focus to improve results. Gordon Cooper is THE expert on the subject and is sharing some recent learnings.
