Really like your notion of the disruptive power of "no" in the marketing communications world. Refreshing. Being an asset-based thinker perhaps we can add the word "and" to the lexicon. No we can't be of help here and we can help you find the best solutions. Looking forward to next season on Mad Men. Hank Wasiak Thanks for the comment Erika.

Protect the integrity of your ideas, not your “turf.” Isn't it a welcomed and HIGHLY disruptive change that the word "no" has gained so much power in the advertising realm? I'm 100% confident that an agency's or individual's ability to use "no" freely gives much more credence to those things to which they say "yes." I'm a fellow Mad Men fan (aside from my girl-crush on Cristina Hendricks) "grown up" in the world of marketing and advertising in the 1.0/2.0/3.0 era. I think fear did a lot for sending the competition model the way of the dinosaur and ushering in the collabetition culture. When the client succeeds, we all win. Victory feels good - crushing people because you need to *look* good...well, it's just poor form. Again, it's back to saying "no." Use it freely and feel empowered.

A great session and the best part was meeting an interacting with some great thinkers and wonderful folks like you. Yep, being a collabetator is a lot of fun. Also trying to urge my fellow Madison Avenue mates to embrace "collabetition". Collaborating with like minded competitors to deliver the best possible communications programs for clients and businesses. In today's world one person or company just can't do it all. Be well. Hope to see you at the next WBF. Likewise Robyn. A great session and the best part was meeting an interacting with some great thinkers and wonderful folks like you.

You impressed me as a true "collabetator" even then. Seems like we need the best of collaborating and competing all mixed into one bundle. Love the word you coined. Let's go for it!

Having started in this game in 1979, I share your perspective on the transformation of our industry and I too welcome the change. One side note--was ready to tweet about your article and noticed you don't have the tweet meme plug-in installed on your blog. I highly recommend this since it makes it so easy for your readers to tweet about your stories. Here's the link that explains how to get this. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tweetmeme/ Great article.
