Ritual featuring Mercer Smith
Manage episode 390932293 series 3284712
Perhaps no movie epitomizes the early 90s grunge scene quite like the 1992 film, Singles. Cameron Crowe’s second film featured a soundtrack littered with bands that would soon become household names. Soundgarden’s Birth Ritual featured the unmistakable vocals of Chris Cornell belting out the word Ritual.
Rituals are a feature of every society, often linked to religions and cults. But rituals are hardly relegated to the mystical. They show up within our teams, our families, and our personal lives. I wanted to explore the topic and did so with Mercer Smith, the VP of CX Insights & Community at PartnerHero.
We discuss: • How ritual led to her first book being published • How LEGO has its own rituals in Mercer’s home • How new families foster new rituals • One successful and one unsuccessful ritual Mercer brought from one business to another • How physical ritual impacts focus • Mercer delivers a challenge to the audience
