This week on our issue highlight article, Melissa This week on our issue highlight article, Melissa Brown “[discusses] what experience design is and how it works, how your small business can implement touchpoints that make experiences more positive, and why you should create experience-based shopping opportunities and events. Experience design is defined by professors J. Rossman and Mathew Duerden as ‘the process of intentionally orchestrating experience elements to provide opportunities for participants to co-create and sustain interactions that lead to results desired by the participant and the designer.’ Companies throughout the world are beginning to make experience design a part of their daily decisions. The Wall Street Journal explained that by hiring Chief Experience Officers (CXOs), large companies are ‘viewing experience as an increasingly powerful driver of business success.’ “ Click the link in our bio to read the rest of the article! 📷: Jess Bailey via Unsplash

This week on our podcast, Measuring Success Right, This week on our podcast, Measuring Success Right, join Shelli Spotts, a writing instructor at BYU, and Grant Fraizer as they discuss how creativity is involved in all aspects of life. Professor Spotts shares her experience with writing creative nonfiction and how we can find our own creative voice in the life that we live. “I think everyone would be benefitted by sort of a more conscious effort to write in their lives. I don’t really care if you’re gonna be a writer or not, but the ability to sit down & really persuasively put your opinions and experiences on paper is important…Think about anyone who has made it in any discipline, whether it’s a scientist, whether it’s a musician, whatever someone is doing, the change between being able to really do your thing and then have other people know about it is the ability to communicate effectively.” How do you connect with your creative voice? Make sure to check out our podcast’s new logo on the last slide as well!
In this week’s Saturday Read, “Bringing Broadw In this week’s Saturday Read, “Bringing Broadway to the Masses”, Melissa Hughes highlights social media’s role behind musical theatre marketing success. She explicitly mentions Hamilton as a great example of what should be done: “Ask anyone off the street what one of their favorite Broadway shows is, and they will probably mention Hamilton. Why is this? Hamilton dominates the Broadway market in mindshare and heart share. People associate Broadway with Hamilton because that is what they have been exposed to through social media marketing and entertainment platforms. Greater exposure through mindshare and heart share leads to greater increase in attendance and ticket sales. In a digital-dominated age, it is more important than ever for producers and production teams to ‘acknowledge social media as a third audience with a vast geographic range.’ Take this third audience into account. When considering marketing strategies, purposefully incorporate social media and entertainment platforms into the final decision. More awareness for a production will always lead to more attendance.” Click the link in our bio to read the full article. Photo Credit: Melancholy Soilder/Unsplash Images.

This weekend’s Saturday Read, “Hacking Your Br This weekend’s Saturday Read, “Hacking Your Brain: How Understanding and Applying the Yerkes–Dodson Law Can Change the Way You Do Everything” by Ryan Sampson, teaches us how to reach Flow. Swipe to learn some quick hacks!! An interesting story is also found in the article: Have you ever wondered how the bell-curve model that students learn about in math class was discovered? “This theory dates back to 1908, when it was created by Robert M. Yerkes and John D. Dodson from a study they did on the effect of stimulation levels on learning. In this study, a number of rats were given a choice: enter either a white box or a black box. If the rats entered the white box nothing would happen, but if they entered the black box they would be electrocuted. The levels of electrocution in the black box were adjusted for each new rat. The goal of the experiment was to test whether the level of stimulation (the electrocution) would affect how fast the rats would learn to avoid the black box. In their research, Yerkes and Dodson discovered an interesting relationship between the rats’ stimulation levels and learning speed. If the shock was too small, the rats would take a while to learn. On the other hand, if the shock was too great, the rats would also take many trials to get it right. The researchers discovered that it was actually a medium degree of shock that caused the rats to learn fastest. In 1955, D. O. Hebb further refined the theory to create the bell-curve model that we know today. One of Hebb’s most important contributions to this study was the observation that performance levels fall off with significantly higher levels of arousal for simple tasks.”

In her article, Chloë Breckenridge provides these In her article, Chloë Breckenridge provides these facts about Gen Z that could be helpful for businesses as they transition their focus from Millennials to the up and coming generation: 1. Gen Z makes up a little over one-fifth of America’s population and are the most racially and ethnically diverse group to ever live in the United States. Their views on life and what is important are impacted by their diversity. 2. Gen Z likes to play it safe. They are more risk-averse than previous generations in terms of both attitudes and behavior.” With a cautious perspective, Gen Z will not be inclined to take risks for companies they don’t fully believe in. 3. Gen Z tends to pick brands that have the same worldviews as they do. They are also influenced more by friends, celebrities, and influencers they see on social media. 4. Unlike previous generations, Gen Z is not attached to brands. Gen Z picks brands that are trustworthy and relevant. Photo credit: Gabriel Valdez
