Silence

We've been busy over here at smith & beta. In 2018, we decided to devote most of our attention to the new learning application our founder launched, Giide. After almost a decade working with agencies and brand marketers, we noticed that "online learning" wasn't working for most employees. We observed that the time required was overwhelming (who sits for hours watching training videos atwork?), we observed that employees wanted more flexibility and we also spent numerous days observing how employees learn and teachers teach. All of this input led to the development of Giide.

So while we are still busy with client assessments and in-person training design, execution, we're also keeping a close eye on the folks over at Giide. You can find more about them here: https://www.americaninno.com/colorado/boulder-startups/this-boulder-startup-uses-guided-podcasts-to-educate-employees and https://vimeo.com/319045960. And if you want to sign up and listen to a few Giides, reach out and let us know or signup on the site https://www.giides.com/.

The smith & beta Climate Pledge

Storms can bring out the best in us. How can we act to be a more earth conscious company?

Open to AI

Yes, we’re bombarded with information and filter what’s true, relevant, and meaningful, but just when we think we have it figured out, the questions shift. A topic that seems critical to know is artificial intelligence (AI). It feels familiar, doesn’t it?

In today’s fast-moving world, it can feel like everything is moving too quickly. With so many digital tools at our disposal, we often wonder: Are these tools really making us faster, or just more overwhelmed? Can we keep up with the speed of modern life while still finding time to reflect, create, and connect?

Back to School

At smith & beta, we believe that the joys and challenges of childhood learning can and should continue in our daily work. By fostering a learning culture, we ensure that tackling new developments—like artificial intelligence, equity, and digital communication tools—is met with the confidence that comes from knowledge and mastery.
