<p>He asked me a number of questions in advance of the interview and I thought I&#8217;d blog the answers here.</p>
<p><strong>Who is Susan Bratton and what does she have her hands in now? </strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;m a CEO, Publisher, Blogger, Podcaster, Speaker and Author.</p>
<p>DishyMix is my weekly <a href="http://personallifemedia.com/podcasts/232-dishymix/episodes/22112-bob-schmetterer-becoming-powerful" title="DishyMix #1 Social Media Podcast" target="_blank">podcast</a> and <a href="http://dishymix.com" title="DishyMix #1 Social Media Podcast" target="_blank">companion blog</a>. My coverages ranges from brain science to new gadgets to landing page conversion to the future of the social graph.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m the CEO and co-founder of <a href="http://personallifemedia.com" title="Personal Life Media" target="_blank">Personal Life Media</a>, an aspirational company and next-generation publisher focused on providing virtual, fully downloadable <em>content experiences</em>.</p>
<p>Our mantra is &#8220;frank talk and deep discussion for your personal life.&#8221;</p>
<p>We publish 40 podcasts, companion blogs and are launching 15 new information products I call “ebooks with benefits.”</p>
<p>Our first info products to market are, <a href="http://talkshowtips.com" title="Talk Show Tips" target="_blank">Talk Show Tips</a>, Speak Up with Power and Influence, Masterful Techniques to Overcome Anxiety and Fear, Naturally Slender Quickstart and a 21 Day Lovemaking Program for Couples. We have another 10+ info products in production.</p>
<p>Top shows on <a href="http://personallifemedia.com" title="Personal Life Media" target="_blank">Personal Life Media</a> include:<br />
DishyMix, Inside Out Weight Loss, Expanded Lovemaking, Buddhist Geeks, Living Dialogues, 3 Digital Photography Shows, The Diva Cast, The New Man, Just for Women, Philosopher’s Notes, Tantra &amp; Kama Sutra and Sex, Love &amp; Intimacy.</p>
<p><strong>What is my high level view of social media marketing?</strong></p>
<p>I view social media as being in three categories,<strong> Listening, Appvertising and Participation.</strong> Shiv Singh of Razorfish really helped me gel my concept of these buckets and his DishyMix interview is coming in June.</p>
<p>Listening is getting the most traction with Participation second and Appvertising third.</p>
<p><strong>Listening</strong>: New companies like <a href="http://unboundtech.com" title="Unbound Technologies" target="_blank">Unbound Technologies</a>, a next generation Neilsen Buzz Metrics, is focused on opportunities around the social graph and social influence marketing. They create a list of the most influential individuals for any given brand and then provide an &#8220;affinity map&#8221; of the other most-influential people and brands related to that single, key influencer. This is fantastic for outreach, prioritization of influencers and joint promotions to important clustered audiences.</p>
<p>Taking behaviorial targeting to a new high with the inclusion of social graphing is Media6Degrees. They offer ad targeted based on social graphing. I also need an update on Lookery who is aggregating social media data across social networks to use for ad targeting. My <a href="http://personallifemedia.com/podcasts/232-dishymix/episodes/3360-scott-rafer-ceo-lookery-facebook-aps" title="Scott Rafer, Lookery" target="_blank">interview with Scott Rafer of Lookery</a> is here.</p>
<p><strong>Appvertising</strong> is being well handled by ClearSpring, Gigya and RockYou! as well as SocialMedia.com and ContextOptional. Brands who create useful aps or sponsor useful aps for their target consumers are brilliant players at a high-level of sophistication in the social influence marketing sphere.</p>
<p><strong>Participation</strong> is certainly evident in Facebook Pages. Here&#8217;s my <a href="http://dishymixfan.com" title="DishyMix Fan Club" target="_blank">DishyMix Fan Club</a> where I give away all kinds of goodies to my listeners.  Also popular and smart are consumer generated content experiences like HP on YouTube described here in <a href="http://blogs.personallifemedia.com/dishymix/daina-middleton-hp-community-marketer-podcast-interview/2008/01/14/" title="Daina Middleton" target="_blank">my interview with Daina Middleton</a> and the darling of the moment, corporate Twitter accounts <a href="http://twitter.com/personallife" title="Personal Life Media Twitter Account" target="_blank">like this one</a>.<br />
<strong>What is the biggest difficulty in Social Media Marketing?</strong></p>
<p>I believe in larger organizations, it is around internal ownership. Should social marketing be part of marketing, corp comm, where? In smaller organizations, I see the problem being one of overwhelming choice. Where do I start as a small business with limited resources?</p>
<p>Also, tracking and ROI still being figured out. Here is a great presentation on social media ROI.<br />

<strong>Podcasting? How did you get into it? What is the current state of podcasting and consulting your crystal ball on podcasting&#8217;s future.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="font-weight: bold">One of my all time most popular DishyMix guests is Sir Ken Robinson. He has a new book out called, &#8220;The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything.&#8221; Sir Ken is an international leader in human potential and creativity and education.</p>
<p style="font-weight: bold"><a href="http://personallifemedia.com/podcasts/232-dishymix/episodes/39555-sir-ken-robinson-element-talent" target="_blank" title="Sir Ken Robinson, author of “The Element”"><img src="http://blogs.personallifemedia.com/dishymix/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/g-sir-ken-robinson-sm.jpg" alt="Sir Ken Robinson, author of “The Element”" /></a></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s an excerpt from my <a href="http://personallifemedia.com/podcasts/232-dishymix/episodes/39555-sir-ken-robinson-element-talent" title="DishyMix with Sir Ken Robinson" target="_blank">interview</a> with Sir Ken about finding your passion and being in &#8220;the element.&#8221;</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold">Susan Bratton:</span> Sir Ken, when I read your book I really felt like what you did was kick open the door to a new realm of talent assessment tools. I, <span style="font-style: italic">poof</span>, popped into a whole new place where there was so much more for me to understand about myself and the people that I love and work with, about their talents and their capabilities. You referenced a lot of people’s work and stitched it together, with your own special spin and look at humans and their unique ways of being. Please describe The Element for us. Give us that level set.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0670020478?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=perlifmed-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0670020478" target="_blank" title="The Element, by Sir Ken Robinson"><img src="http://blogs.personallifemedia.com/dishymix/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/the-element.jpg" alt="The Element, by Sir Ken Robinson" width="188" height="283" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold">Sir Ken Robinson: </span>Okay, well <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0670020478?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=perlifmed-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0670020478" title="The Element by Sir Ken Robinson" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: bold">The Element</span></a>, the title comes from an expression that a lot of people use, and I hear myself saying, you know, which is that people do their best when they do the thing they love, when they’re in their element. And I thought, “Well what is that exactly”, because it’s clear to me in my experience that an awful lot of people do things for a living that they don’t really like doing, they don’t much enjoy it, they just get on with it because they have found their way into it and, you know, they live their lives in a kind of low grade sense of tolerance, is what they do.</p>
<p>And yet I also meet lots of people that actually love what they do and couldn’t really imagine doing anything else. You know, they’re in their element, so to speak. Well it’s two things it seems to me. One of them is to be in your element you have to be doing something that you have a natural attitude for, a natural feel. And the truth is, we all have very, very different attitudes. You know, we take the things in very different ways. But it’s not enough to be doing something you’re good at, because I know lots of people who do things they’re good at that they don’t really much like doing. To be in your element you have to love it too. And if you are doing something you’re good at and something that you also love to do, that seems to me to be the perfect place and that’s what being in your element is.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold">Susan Bratton:</span> So it’s the intersection of your talent and your passion… And that was the point in the book. It doesn’t matter what your talents are if you don’t love them. If you’re really good at numbers and they bore you to death, don’t do it. If you love plants and growing things and that’s your passion and it’s a part of your talent, that’s where you should be.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold">Sir Ken Robinson: </span>That’s right. And it applies definitely to people in all sorts of different walks of life, you know. For some people it’s math, for some people it’s working with people, it’s teaching, it’s doing what you’re doing now, you know, or it’s, it could be cooking or raising families, or anything at all. I mean our attitudes are very different, and that’s in a way a major point in the book. You know, the book is really about diversity and celebrating difference.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold">Susan Bratton: </span>You wrote, “The best hope for the future is to develop a new paradigm of human capacity to meet a new era of human existence.” I think that goes to what you’re saying, that every one of us has a unique talent. You know, you’ve been very critical of our education system being a part of the industrial revolution mechanism. That we are thinking about people’s talents and pigeon holing them as well, and you want to get out of that and find a lot of new ways. What are some of the things that we can do as people who manage other people for example, to create this new era of human existence?</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold">Sir Ken Robinson: </span>The shift I’m talking about, as you say, is from an old model, not just of education but of the mind to, a richer model. You know, the current systems education are intended to develop our ability to work, among other things. But the way in which it’s done is rooted so much in the 19th century models of industrial manufacture, that most people now I think never truly discover their own talents through the process of being educated. I have lots of people in the work, I’ve interviewed all kinds of people in the arts and sciences, in business, in not for profits, and many of them didn’t do well at school at all, they. They went on to do brilliantly well afterwards, once they discovered their real talents.</p>
<p>I don’t mean to say that in order to succeed you have to have failed at school first; I mean that would be pushing this a bit far. But it is true that education is designed to identify certain sorts of talents and not all talents. That’s, by the way, education, traditional education at its best. The problem now I think is that our school systems have become so oppressed and stifled by standards of systemized testing that their not even succeeding in their traditional market, so to speak. So a lot of people come through the system never really know what they’re good at…</p>
<p>And I think for companies and organizations, and for parents and families, what I’m trying to argue for is we have to go back and think very differently about the nature of human intelligence and the nature of human ability. We’re grown up with a whole set of ideas that we take for granted about our natural abilities, and the result of it is I think we have a very impoverished view of our own potential, and I think companies have a very impoverished view very often of the real talents that align there in the people they employ.</p>

I attribute much of my professional success to my ability to speak to large groups with confidence.<a href="http://blogs.personallifemedia.com/dishymix/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/img_1939.jpg" title="Bert Decker and Susan Bratton"><img src="http://blogs.personallifemedia.com/dishymix/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/img_1939.jpg" alt="Bert Decker and Susan Bratton" width="450" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Bert has been on DishyMix and I have promoted his book, &#8220;You Have to Be Believed to Be Heard,&#8221; widely to my friends and compatriots.</p>
<p>At SXSW, Bert noted that panelists were monitoring Twitter to get audience feedback during presentations and panels. This behavior is not confined to the social media mecca that is SXSW. You&#8217;ll find panelists at ad:tech and other events doing the same thing.</p>
<p><strong>I interviewed Bert about this phenomenon to get his opinions. Listen here to Bert Decker&#8217;s advice. </strong></p>

<p><strong>Dacher Keltner is a professor of psychology at UC Berkeley with a new book out called &#8220;Born to Be Good: The Science of a Meaningful Life.&#8221; He&#8217;s been interviewed by the NY Times, TIME magazine and Scientific American recently. Here is a link to the SciAm article which covers, among many things, the idea of &#8220;devoting resources to others, rather than indulging a materialist desire, to bring about lasting well being.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=perlifmed-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as1&amp;asins=039306512X&amp;fc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;lt1=_blank&amp;m=amazon&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;bc1=000000&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;f=ifr" style="width: 120px; height: 240px" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p><a href="http://personallifemedia.com/podcasts/232-dishymix/episodes/26578-dacher-keltner-born-good-jen-ratio-cro" target="_blank" title="Dacher Keltner and His Holiness the Dalai Lama"><img src="http://blogs.personallifemedia.com/dishymix/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/dacher-and-hhdl.jpg" alt="Dacher Keltner and His Holiness the Dalai Lama" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Dacher Keltner and His Holiness the Dalai Lama </strong></p>
<p>In my DishyMix interview with Dacher, we focused a lot on how we can apply the insights he&#8217;s gained into pro-social human emotions like kindness, empathy and compassion to the business world.</p>
<p>It turns out the single most important thing you can do to create happiness and a meaningful life is what Dacher calls, &#8220;bringing others to completion.&#8221; If you are focused on helping bring out the best in others, it&#8217;s more satisfying than the continued focus on self.</p>
<p>The business world puts us in touch with a large number of people with whom we can work to &#8220;bring each other to completion.&#8221;  If you are a manager, you can help your team create their greatest personal/professional contributions. If you are public speaker, blogger, Twitterer or do other outbound communications that impact large groups, you are in the position to create an atmosphere to bring out the best in others and help move them forward in the gifts they bring to society.</p>
<p>Below are links to Dacher&#8217;s 2 part DishyMix interview, along with a link to his book, which I highly recommend.</p>
<p>Dacher&#8217;s research in positive human emotions and their impact on creating meaning in our lives is fascinating and his new book, &#8220;<strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/039306512X?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=perlifmed-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=039306512X" title="Born to Be Good" target="_blank">Born to be Good: The Science of a Meaningful Life</a></strong>&#8221; is a <em>must read</em> of pure pleasure for anyone interested in creating a great, happy and meaningful  life. That&#8217;s you, right?</p>
