Mediacurrent Says Cheers to 10 Years - A Retrospective

The purpose of publishing this is intended to inspire future entrepreneurs who have undoubtedly faced adversity, to encourage others in a position of leadership to be transparent, and help recruit talent that aligns with Mediacurrent's culture.
Creating a Culture of Giving in Your Organization
At Drupalcamp Atlanta 2016, my partner (Paul Chason) and I were humbled to have an opportunity to deliver the keynote address at Kennesaw State University.

Build your QA Department: Laying a Foundation
With 15 years of experience in the Information Technology field and 10 of those years focused on leadership, I’ve learned first hand the value of investing in people and setting them up for success.

Culture, Code and Karaoke
What is “culture” and why do we take so much time trying to define it? Is it really important or just another buzzword? This past weekend, we were afforded the opportunity to have a company retreat, that went the distance in proving that culture is something that can’t be bought and paid for, it’s something unique to us and our success really does hinge on its influence. Our people, our relationships, our “culture” is what makes Mediacurrent, Mediacurrent.
