In a world where technology and the way we interact are constantly changing, it can be hard to keep up with the ever-shifting realm of digital media. Here are some of the top resources for helping you create a more effective digital media strategy.
Essentialism By Greg McKeown
Have you ever felt the urge to declutter your work life? Do you often find yourself stretched too thin? Are you frequently busy but not productive?
The way of the essentialist isn’t about getting more done in less time. It’s about getting only the right things done. It is not a time management strategy, or a productivity technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution towards the things that really matter.

Start with Why by Simon Sinek
Any person or organization can explain what they do; some can explain how they are different or better; but very few can clearly articulate why. WHY is not about money or profit – those are results. WHY is the thing that inspires us and inspires those around us. Get the book here.
Originals by Adam Grant
Grant addresses the challenge of improving the world now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all?
He explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent.
