The holiday season is officially here, and it is the perfect time to Lead With Your Brand by reaching out to people in your network that you haven’t spoken to in a while, and use the opportunity to reconnect with them.  Great networking is all about leveraging organic situations to naturally connect with people so that you can stay top of mind, but don’t just reach out with the same holiday wishes as everyone else. Rather, take a moment to thank those around you for the impact that they have had on your career and share the inspiration that they have brought to you. This week, Jayzen welcomes David Rose to the show. As a five-time entrepreneur, David draws on design culture, psychology, and technology to envision future products and businesses enabled by the metaverse. He is known for translating complex technologies into delightfully intuitive new products and consulting with businesses on how to thrive during digital disruption. David’s work has been featured at the New York Museum of Modern Art, covered in The New York Times, WIRED, and The Economist, and parodied on The Colbert Report. Guest BioDavid RoseMIT Lecturer, Author & Metaverse EntrepreneurDavid Rose, MIT lecturer, inventor, and five-time entrepreneur, draws on design culture, psychology, and technology to envision future products and businesses enabled by the metaverse.

His home was featured in a New York Times video “The Internet of Things” about inventions that incorporate magic into everyday objects: a Google Earth coffee table that responds to gestures, Skype cabinetry in the living room, and a doorbell reminiscent of Mrs. Weasley's clock that rings when a family member is on their way home.
