Sometimes, you need to get out of the office to sharpen your thinking.

Last week, Pierpont's leadership team headed to South Lake Tahoe for our annual management retreat with all seven locations represented. Two days of strategy sessions, a fantastic guest speaker, and yes, some hiking and watching the NBA Finals too.

Sharper thinking, stronger bonds, and ready to get back to work. 🏔️

How people discover and evaluate organizations is changing.

As generative AI becomes a primary source of information, earned media and credible third-party coverage are more valuable than ever.

Read Josh's perspective on what the AI era means for brands and why Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) should be part of every communications strategy.

Visibility is no longer just about ranking on Google, a single piece of earned content, or a thought leadership article. Generative AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google's AI Overviews are now the first answer many audiences see when searching online.
