This week were looking at the good and evil dichotomy of Social Media advertising, featuring Kim K, of course, the obsolete suit and tie dress code and the brave new world of advertising while facing an economic AND environmental crisis. Fun!

Let’s get into it.

This week there’s a lot of juicy HR news going on, including the rising importance of meaningful work, Virgin Airlines allowing men to wear skirts and ladies to wear trousers, and Tim Cook keeping four women in his pocket (we assume.)

Tech news of course getting in on the action with the danger of voice activated robot servants and some more, depressing as ever, Metaverse news.

Let’s get into it.

There is a lot going on this week.

This weeks tech news has brought up an unfortunately ever-present issue in the workplace, the gender pay gap, which extends to all minorities in the workplace, be it people of colour, members of the LGBTQ community, and even parents.

Struggle to get your noggin around long-term and short-term marketing? Don't worry, us too (sometimes.)

Which is the better tactic? Are they actually different? Can you do both at once?
