It’s holiday season! No matter what you celebrate, it’s always nice to take the end of the year, spend time with family and friends and reflect upon the year ahead!
Lee Distad reflects upon deadlines and timelines in his latest column — he writes all about hard deadlines, soft deadlines and everything in between. He discusses the relationships we have with clients and how that relationship comes with deadlines of all types. What are ways in which we can stress hard deadlines? Lee writes a bit about that and how creating a sense of urgency can be “50/50 at best.”

When is a deadline not a deadline? I’m sure you’ve all experienced deadlines that were absolute hard-stop do-or-die deadlines. As well, you’ve probably all experienced deadlines that were, to quote Captain Barbosa from Pirates of the Caribbean “More what you’d call guidelines than actual rules.”
After an extremely successful year in 2020, the home content creation market has undergone a major transformation. Whilst demand is currently experiencing a slowdown, 2021 broke records in terms of market value. That’s according to a new content creator report from Futuresource Consulting, which combines in-depth industry interviews with a 16,000-respondent consumer survey.
