Top of Mind Thursday January 11, 2018: Time’s Up for Change
Over the last several months, the issue of sexual harassment and assault has become front page news on an ongoing basis.
Some of the biggest names in Hollywood have been brought down by allegations of abuse and inappropriate behavior. The hashtag campaign #MeToo resulted in millions of women throughout all walks of life saying, yes, this also happened to me.
Now a group of 300 women in Hollywood have launched an initiative called Time’s Up to help fight workplace sexual discrimination, harassment and inequality–including the establishment of a legal defense fund to help less privileged women bright their grievances as well. Stars attending Sunday’s Golden Globe awards presentation all wore black to support this movement, and both men and women are saying we’ve had enough of this behavior.
The problems being discussed didn’t appear out of nowhere. But it took a group of courageous individuals to stand up and say we won’t take it anymore to effect change.
What major issues may be lying in wait in your industry? How can you be seen to be part of the solution to solving those issues, rather than perpetuating the problem? How will you react when time’s up?

Top of Mind Thursday January 4, 2018: Green and Growing
On Tuesday, California joined the growing number of states including Oregon and jurisdictions that allow recreational sales of marijuana.
Estimates are that first year sales of legal cannabis-related products will exceed $3.8 billion, growing to over $5 billion in 2019. Add in 34% in taxes at the local and state levels. That’s a lot of green!
Initial sales will be through dispensaries already set up for medical marijuana sales, as local municipalities determine how best to regulate new entries to the marketplace. Meanwhile, entrepreneurs are contemplating businesses to support this new opportunity.
The transformation from shunned to stunning over a relatively short time period has been incredible. But the ability to take a new potential opportunity and monetize it in new and creative ways is not surprising–it’s what we do as Americans.
What intriguing nascent opportunities as lurking in your business environment? Are you prepared to act on changing rules and regulations, or evolving consumer demands? Will you be ready to take your business to new highs?
