Tackling Uncertainty Like a PR Pro
When you are in your 20s, the same question seems to come up over and over and over again. "What's next?" If you are anything like me this is usually followed by hyperventilation and nostalgia for the days when your biggest problem was figuring out who to take to prom.
Welp, those days are over ladies and gentlemen. Grab a brown paper bag and breathe! It’s time to face that fearful question head on.
Kerry Washington: An International Advocate
Today about 8 million people are preparing themselves for the excitement that comes with Scandal Thursday. Post on Twitter and Facebook with speculation on who "the mole" is are flying rampantly. I on the other hand cannot stop thinking about Kerry Washington. Yes, I mean the actual Kerry Washington, not Olivia Pope (who I am also in love with, like so many others).
The Egyptian Tourism Industry Still Awaits the Arab Summer
The effects of the Arab Spring on tourism in Egypt has been a popular topic of discussion over the last month. Articles by The Economist, The New York Times and Reuters paint a picture of desperation among the citizens and government of Egypt.
As 2010 closed out we all watched the wave of revolution known as the Arab Spring unfold on traditional and new media. For many of us it was not clear what would come of this sudden rash of rebellion.
We live in a time of constant connection—yet many people have never felt more disconnected. As digital tools reshape how we work, communicate, and lead, a quiet crisis is emerging: the erosion of genuine human connection. From remote workplaces to AI-driven interactions, the speed and scale of digitization often leave little room for empathy, nuance, or shared presence.
But restoring connection isn’t about resisting technology—it’s about rebalancing it.
At Glass Ladder Group, we believe that human-centered strategy is the antidote to digital fatigue. Whether it’s rethinking how teams collaborate, how leaders show up, or how institutions communicate their values, restoring connection requires intentional design. Because in a world where attention is fragmented and trust is fragile, organizations that prioritize real relationships—not just reach—will lead with greater impact.
