The Evolution of the Crazy Cat Lady
If she’s single, over thirty, and has zero kids, we all know her- she’s “The crazy cat lady.” This is a prime example of a stereo-type, and it’s a ruthless one. However, stereo-types evolve from a majority mass or common repetitive behavior of a same kind. But it can not speak for all.

Borrowing For Momentum
Perhaps it is only a fantasy of mine, but I know I have things to contribute to people--things which would be barterable for cash for living, in all aspects of the word--and know I can do something for them that is not only helpful, but elegant, inspiring, valuable, etc. It is the getting into that position that is, cut and dry, the issue.

The Age of “Wood in” Advertising
Introduction Yes, I am a strategic management professor who is “of a certain age.” So, sometimes my reference points can be a bit dated, no matter how hard I strive to keep up with the times. In conversations with students, colleagues, and clients, I know that I’m going to miss some references and not quite “get” what is so funny - or alternatively - horrible about a story, an advertisement, a social media post, etc. And at the same time, I know that some of my references from my youth, young adulthood, and now, even my parenthood days won’t resonate with today’s students who were born after September 11th and consulting clients who may not have been alive to see the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
