Henrietta has been a Communications Manager on Tideway London overseeing branding, campaigns, and engaging staff, having previously worked in advertising and art education. Bringing the story of the Super Sewer to life has included creating an undergound garden in the tunnel and a live cello performance 60 metres below Chambers Wharf. Watch our latest People Behind the Tunnel here: https://lnkd.in/ecmpUawV
When he finished tunnelling we had tunnel to tide it was called, and that's when we had a a cellist who came down underground 60 metres below ground at Chambers Wharf. And he had created a composition made-up of science below the tunnel. But visually, to have this cellist in the tunnel was quite extraordinary. It was amazing. Totally take me be surprised the fact that you can have so much creativity in a role in the construction industry, just a different type of creativity. So in many ways, I think an infrastructure or major project and construction actually is probably more open minded to creativity than potentially other organizations.
When BML Public Relations client Mountain Creek shared with us that its new $5 million fully automated snow making system was about ready to fire up, we knew it was a story that would resonate!
Offering 70% more energy efficiency compared to the previous system and onboard weather computers at each snow gun, the system truly is one of the most advanced in the country! Moreover, combined with the fact that the system helped the resort open earlier than it has in the past decade, it checked all the right boxes for NBC’s Lynda Baquero to come out to Vernon and give viewers a peek at what’s giving Mountain Creek a competitive edge this season.
Check out the segment on NBC New York below and get to the mountain already!

A recent blog by Brian Jacobs part of which I've reproduced below, reminded me about a great 1967 speech entitled: ‘When to take my name off the door’.
"J Walter Thompson, David Ogilvy, Bill Bernbach, Raymond Rubicam, Leo Burnett were all proud of their work, they literally put their name on it.
We still have John Bartle, Sir John Hegarty, Maurice and Charles Saatchi, Charles Vallance. But the number of people prepared to put their name above the door is increasingly small. Maybe it’s just not fashionable; maybe it’s a matter of anonymising responsibility."
Like Brian, I worked for Leo Burnett UK, (the agency, not the man - he had long gone by then) for many years. It was a great place to work.
"Every office throughout the world had a bowl of apples on the reception desk – a throwback to a remark in one of the Chicago papers when Mr Burnett founded his agency in the 1930’s and offered an apple to any prospective client who visited. ‘Mr Burnett will soon be selling his apples on a street corner’ read the piece. I don’t know if the agency still does that – I suspect the apples have long gone the way of a procurement driven cost-saving programme.....but this was an agency with a heritage built around a set of principles to which it stuck like glue. It knew what it was.
Principles live on. They survive different ages, different circumstances. It’s unusual to have the chance to listen to the guy who set the agency’s principles enunciate the agency’s principles. That’s what Leo Burnett did in a 1967 speech entitled: ‘When to take my name off the door’.

Less than 10 minutes long, a bit shaky but a rare opportunity to listen to a legendary ad man. More than that, a chance to recall Bill Bernbach’s words: “A principle is not a principle until it costs you money”."

"Do what you do so well that they will want to see it again and bring their friends.”—Walt Disney
I love this quote by Walt Disney so much because it really embodies everything I know and believe about Public Relations, Brand Messaging, and Communications. How do you create that for each visitor? A great visitor experience at your museum starts by focusing on way-finding, clear communication, and creating an experience that visitors will want to share with others.

It’s a marathon, not a sprint.
Last week, we drove to Greenville, NC to drop Julia for her sophomore year at East Carolina University. We took our time, seeing family in Frederick MD and Raleigh, NC. We stopped whenever we felt like it, either to grab coffee, take a stretch or fix a broken mud flap. While in moments, we moved quickly and with purpose, there was no rush. We didn’t see the point in driving like hell, exhausted and stressed. Our commitment to getting there safely with our physical and mental well-being intact was paramount.
That’s not unlike our approach at Engine 58. While we will move quickly and with purpose, we recognize that great relationships and enduring business is a marathon. We are patient and committed to the well-being of staff and our clients. And we won’t displace those things to chase a buck.

The Town of Vienna is showing real responsible lighting leadership by hiring Clanton & Associates to develop the town's new outdoor lighting ordinance. It takes strong policy, commitment, implementation, and enforcement--but this is a great start to setting good examples.
