Messaging about equity and racial justice

Minna Jung May 13, 2021

It has taken me a very long time to achieve even glimmers of understanding of how I feel about my own racial/ethnic identity (Korean-American); I now recognize that this will be a lifelong and continuous evolution of thought and feeling …

Going back to the office

Minna Jung April 9, 2021

Out of the many TED talks/articles that turned into books that then turned into consulting businesses, I think “radical candor” generated some of the funniest stories for me. Radical candor, for the blissfully unaware, was an approach to delivering candid …

Job Skill: Integrity

Minna Jung April 1, 2021

It is one of those days—weeks, really—where I am feeling sick and tired of the happenings in the world, and particularly, the happenings in the United States. Violence against Asian-Americans, voter suppression, the trial for the murder of George Floyd: …

Expectations: Yours, mine, everyone’s

Minna Jung February 26, 2021

Retrospective: My communications evolution

Minna Jung September 15, 2020

FIRST IN COMMUNICATIONS (meaning the publishing industry, in 1990), there were printed materials, and there was the telephone, and the fax machine. We had computers, but they were blinking green cursors on black screens. We communicated through the books we …

Clients and consultants: Thoughts

Minna Jung July 22, 2020

We take a break from the nonstop dumpster fire that is the ongoing news from 2020 to return to some more mundane work topics. Today’s topic: consultants. In thinking about today’s topic, I unearthed a blog post I had written, …
