Hi there,
Here's a list of some of the best marketing articles and management ideas that I've come across in the past few weeks. Hope something brings a smile to your face or an idea to your brain!
1 . 12 Things Everyone Should Understand About Tech
Do you ever read an article that just feels important? This one from Anil Dash really resonated with me. A few of my favorite points: Tech is not neutral (#1) and the economic model skews everything (#10).
2. How to know when you’re slowly but surely becoming a bad manager 🙈
3. Why you think social media is run by interns (spoiler: it's not always run by interns!)
4. How to pick a career that actually fits you
5. "You don't skim a podcast."
The New York Times podcast, The Daily, has more listeners than the NYT has readers. It's a trend worth watching. Digiday has a daily, micro podcast as well.
6. Leadership in a remote team
Fantastic insights on managing and leading a remote team, from my teammate - and Buffer's Director of Engineering - Katie Womersley.

7 . GDPR - What Growth People need to know
8. Don't let GDPR kill your marketing automation
9. Are you GDPR ready? [HubSpot]
10. 🚨Remote jobs alert 🚨
If you've been looking for the next step in your marketing career, perhaps some of these jobs might be up your alley: management, strategy, and a bit of tactics.
