Jamey believes Thomas Mann had it right when he said, “A writer is someone for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.” When he isn’t twisting his beard staring at words on a screen, Jamey might be nodding off on Bart while reading and listening to Spotify, teaching his kids the finer points of rochambo, indulging a basketball jones, or generally spending an inordinate amount of time feeling completely amazed by it all.

Learn to create a marketing workflow in the new ebook

We created the ebook “Atlassian for marketing teams: workflows” to help you begin to visualize your work. A marketing workflow helps support your projects and get them moving along on time, with all the assets and feedback they require. The ebook will get your marketing team familiar with the concepts of visualizing and implementing a workflow, and it offers examples and tips to get you going, whether your project involves managing a complex process with loads of stakeholders, or something less involved. A blog marketing workflow is offered as a familiar example, and the ways tools like Confluence and Jira Core make it come to life.

How to use group chat to strengthen company culture

Think about how you communicate with the people on your team and in your company. In today’s offices, with distributed teams across the globe, we often don’t have the luxury of just walking up and saying, Yo. This inevitable lack of face time (to say nothing about the missed opportunities to practice your Rocky Balboa voice) leads to more impersonal forms of communication, like email. And over time, a disconnected feeling grows and it affects culture. So, if you can’t be together, you’ve got to replace that feeling of being together. A great way to do this is with group chat, because it encourages communication. And company culture is rooted in the ways teammates and coworkers communicate.
