Where Will This Year Take You? Welcome to Season 9

 

About This Episode

The headlines say it all. We’re living in complicated times.  As threats to our economy, democracy, public health, humanity, and the planet all converge, how in the world are we as leaders meant to navigate through it?
 
Will you do right by your public commitments to DEI or walk them back?  Will you lead through your values or your bottom line? Will you stand by while the world changes, or will you be the change?

Hey, I’m Carrie Fox, host of the Mission Forward podcast and a firm believer in the power of communications as a force for good.

Whether you’re working to address climate change or public health, DEI, or AI, communications matters. Courage, care, and civility matter, too. How you practice those three C’s will directly affect your future, too.


On this 9th season of Mission Forward, we’ll introduce you to a host of global thought leaders who will share their take on this consequential year and how they navigate the issues ahead. We hope you’ll come along because there’s too much ahead to navigate alone, particularly as the headlines are breaking all around you.

We’ll see you on February 29th for our first episode of Season 9.

Kristine Neil

Fractional Web Partner

I'm Kristine Neil - a communications strategist who has spent 20+ years designing websites, first running a full-scale design and marketing agency, and now leading my own studio. I've been the creative director managing the work, the coder quietly fixing what others couldn't, and the strategist in the room asking why before how. Somewhere between the MBA and the other degrees, I decided web design was just one tool in a much bigger toolbox - the real work is figuring out what you're trying to say, who needs to hear it, and what's getting in the way. A website is just where all of that comes to life.

I mostly build on Squarespace, and after years deep in the platform I know how far it can go and when to push past its limits. These days, I'm especially drawn to working as a fractional partner - getting to know an organization over time and helping with whatever moves them forward, whether that's a full redesign, an ongoing hand with content and strategy, or just being the person who knows their site best. I write here about AI, UX, eCommerce, web strategy, and making the complex feel a little more human.
