I'm very grateful for the opportunity Olivia Garcia and Randall W. from SBS Comms gave me to share some of my thoughts on our lovely profession: journalism, and my coverage in the Americas as a foreign correspondent. Here I'm sharing the interview they've just released, if you want to take a look, without obligation. 😁 Así es la vida del artista. https://lnkd.in/eeyjw_SS

They say good things come in threes – in today's case, it was LawSites, Legal Dive, and ALM, who shared Alexi's (re)launch story ⭐ Alexi acts as an extension of the legal team, offering in-depth research assistance and memo drafting—essentially functioning like a junior associate or a strategic aid for senior professionals, automating up to 80% of routine legal tasks. Gone are the days of long nights at the office compiling memos/research or having to work on weekends that aren’t billable. 👋 Huge congrats to Mark Doble, Daniel Diamond, Lauren Batty, and the rest of the Alexi team. 🚀

SBS Comms is hiring like crazy, and one of my all-time favorite questions to get during candidate interviews is about the work culture. I could tell you SBS throws great happy hours and an unbeatable annual offsite, shows appreciation through surprises and personal gifts (TG for things like national coffee day), and boasts great benefits including Fringe points, summer Fridays, and unlimited PTO. Incredible as they are, none of these incentives tell you what it’s like to work on accounts day-to-day in one of the most notoriously fast-paced and burnout-prone fields, where a solid team can make or break results. So often I see candidates skip over asking more probing questions around the beliefs, practices and behaviors that shape how work actually gets done. A few topics below that serve as a better indicator of workplace environment and overall culture, to consider for your next interview: – What happens when your team makes a mistake? How is leadership expected to respond? – What’s your vetting process for new clients like? – How do you respond when peers or junior staff come to you for guidance? Do you feel comfortable asking your manager questions? – What’s your approach to providing feedback? How does that differ across the agency? – Do team members socialize outside of work? – How would you describe your relationship with clients? – How are wins acknowledged? And if you’re reading this as a scrappy, smart, creative comms person with an affinity for tech storytelling…ask me! What else did I miss?

One of my fave things about startup PR is how varied it is – one week I'm launching a space company 🚀 the next I'm launching a legal AI platform ⚖️ Because I’m across so many industries, I often find myself learning the good/bad/ugly on what my friends and family do for work – and turns out I know A LOT of lawyers (you've been warned) Legal research and everything that goes into trial prep is incredibly time consuming. It makes my lawyer friends boring and they bail on all our plans…I'm looking at you, James Carraway 👀 These past few weeks we've been working with Mark Doble, Lauren Batty, and the team over at Alexi, who today launched their AI platform for litigators. And after seeing the tool in action, I'm a total fangirl (and I also selfishly just want my friend James back) Some of the most prominent voices in legal tech covered, check it out below and maybe pass along to your litigator pals in need! #legaltech #startuppr #legalai

"Imagine a scenario where early tallies on Nov. 5 show one US presidential candidate leading in a key county in a swing state when the site reporting those numbers suddenly stops working. When it comes back online, more votes have been counted and the other candidate is in front. That candidate goes on to win the state and the presidency. It’s an incident that could seriously undermine confidence in the election results and cause turmoil..." Important piece from Bloomberg News's Jordan Robertson with Cloudflare.
