It’s Friday the 13th (again)… but so far the week has been pretty lucky.
I caught the Family Business Center's Talent Trends event where Ben Smock and Angela Beets from Gilman Partners shared sharp insights on where hiring is headed. Thanks to Lee Weyland for the invite.
I also made it to TagSwag's grand opening, and their new facility genuinely blew me away (see 🎥 here). Multiple national vendors told me it ranks in the top 5% in the country. Congrats to the Horne family on building something special.
And I spoke to Todd Spencer’s Advancing Leaders Vistage Group on AI adoption. After running these workshops for hundreds of leaders, the pattern is consistent: individually they’re excited about AI… organizationally they haven’t caught up yet. That gap is the opportunity.
Hot job 💼: Senior Account Executive at Apex Order Pickup Solutions ($120K–$160K). Drive enterprise sales at a company redefining retail order pickup technology, working directly for the great Holly Lun.
📈 Number: 34 is the number of years Video Kitchen has been a Louisville staple. Congrats on a great run as the beloved local institution closes its doors for good.
As always, I appreciate you reading. 👊
