As we continue to celebrate Women’s History Month, The Week is focusing on those women who are, well, making history. The barriers they’re shattering, the new ground they’re breaking, the inspiration and insight they can share with all of us. So after beginning the week with some female leaders looking back, we finish with others…

Celebrities and prominent figures of all kinds have recently found their identities used in ‘deep fake’ content. Perhaps the most popularly deep-faked celebrity is Tom Cruise, who can be seen on TikTok doing everything from magic tricks to working on his golf swing. The problem is – he wasn’t. A neural network was fed several…

The reality of COVID-19 hit CTP suddenly one year ago. A member of our team told us her roommate had been exposed to a colleague who tested positive. Decisions needed to be made. So we turned to our team for guidance. What were they thinking? What concerns did they have? First and foremost, they were not scared to be at the office, but they were scared to come to…

The Week’s taking a brief look back at whats stood out, while…

What does the future hold? We’re all ears (especially if you have a Grays Sports Almanac that can help with Sunday’s game). Looking forward, the Week’s been interested in a few recent stories about future states. Offices that look and feel like home. Virtual stadiums. Integrating but managing video fatigue. And (gasp) a world without…

It feels like we’ve all learned a little bit more than we already knew about the stock market this past week based on the recent events that landed Robinhood and GameStop atop international headlines. It’s a fascinating case study, on so many levels, from a crowd-sourced industry attack to a platform blocking its users from…

The last month, heck the last several months, have been relentless. It’s not just the challenges of COVID-19, social justice, political polarization and an assault on truth, but the near daily manifestation of them (and others). And darting from one issue to another is hardly a recipe for success. The Week’s taking a bit of…

There are few jobs in communications with as much pressure and scrutiny as the White House Press Secretary. As Jen Psaki steps into the role, she’ll do so with the country fiercely divided by politics and a media landscape that blurs facts, opinion and lies. The toughest job in the business has never been tougher.…
