Malcom Gladwell on Happiness

June 24, 2008

When Todd asked me to fill in for him today, I looked at his blog very differently. As a regular reader, I just enjoy. But, as one who is trying to step into his shoes, I wanted not only to add value but to add value in a voice that would seem familiar and welcoming to his readers. Todd loves to communicate in video….so I decided to share one of my favorites.

If you aren’t familiar with the TED series of presentations, you are really missing some amazing and insightful (as well as entertaining) videos out there. The one I’ve opted to share with you is Malcom Gladwell and his “take” on happiness. But of course, it’s much more. (It’s a little long but I promise, well worth the time!)



So, from a marketing perspective….what’s your take away? How might you use Malcom’s thoughts in your day to day efforts?

Be sure to check out all of Todd’s pinch hitter this week:

// Fri / Kami Huyse of Communication Overtones

// Mon / Gavin Heaton of Servant of Chaos

// Tue / Drew McLellan of Drew’s Marketing Minute

// Wed / Darryl Ohrt of Brand Flakes for Breakfast

    Leo,

    I agree…the meaning sort of seeps in, the more you watch the video and even days later.
