Esther understood sequencing, alignment, and timing — the fundamentals of strategic communication.
It's Purim tonight and Esther may be history’s most underrated communications strategist.
Timing.
Coalition-building.
Message discipline.
Still relevant for leaders today. Here's my take on Esther the Influencer:

The Washington Post slashed ~300 journalists or 1/3 of the 800 person newsroom. Metro, sports, books, foreign bureaus—gutted.
This isn’t “another layoff.” It’s a flashing red signal for anyone who still builds authority the old-school way.
Especially elite law firms.
An important thread from John about the future of thought leadership and authority building:

🚨Stop wasting money on PR🚨
Too many firms treat media placements like the finish line. But the full value of PR isn’t in the placement -- it’s in what you do with it next!

Earned Media and PR that actually scores? Read my latest article in ALA's Legal Management suggesting a points-based system to track and value media wins.
No more guessing what a placement is worth.
📈 Just strategy, scale & results.

10 years ago, John made a pretty accurate prediction about #AI Chatbots... He was talking about #lawyers and law firms at the time but given the progress of AI over the last yer, the prediction is relevant to most all professional services now.
In case you missed it, Scarlett Johansson’s surprise cameo on Saturday Night Live was spectacular.
It was 10 years ago that she starred with Joaquin Phoenix in Spike Jonze’s dystopian romance, “Her,” and so it’s also been 10 year since I was inspired by the movie to predict in @Law360 that that the profession (hello @richardsusskind, @timhwang, @EJWalters) would one day be radically transformed by AI and the power of Oracle-like AI Chatbots.
Current partners aren’t quite on the “algorithm track” yet, but the way things are going, I bet we’ll see our first such “deal” before the end of the decade!

I was recently interviewed by Don Mazzella for his highly-regarded Small Business Digest podcast.
If you're making plans for PR -- and can suffer my "ahhs" and "umms" -- I think you might appreciate it.
I discuss the power and purpose of thought leadership, and explain FAME -- our revolutionary new success-based approach to earned media.

I recently secured a podcast opp for my mentor @jhellerman w/ Small Business Digest. He discussed his unique approach to #PR (#FAME), the importance of thought leadership for pros + the power of third-party credentialing. Here are some key takeaways. hellermanllc.com/small-biz-p…
@jhellerman appeared on Small Business Digest (starting at 27:47) to discuss "Breaking the PR Mold: From Skepticism to Success."
"Transparency matters. With our #FAME service, we're putting the power back in your hands, helping you manage your PR resources effectively."
