So How Do I Get a Gig Like This?
Posted by Brent under: Nothing Special .
The cover of the latest Costco Magazine has a photo of a man captioned “Education provocateur Sir Ken Robinson” A friend’s card says “Brand Futurist”, somebody on LinkedIn the other day was asking about the title “maven.” So: provocateur, futurist, maven, how do I get a gig like this? I know these people just make up these titles. What odd titles have you come across, and what would be yours?
One Comment so far...

How about “Ted Turner, Maverick” ? I don’t know that he ever used that title but I could see him using that (possibly in his earlier days). How about “Donald Trump, Business Stylist?” One has only to look at his hair to know how fitting the title would be. An friend who was out of work was passing out resumes and business cards at a convention that just listed his title as “Executive.” Wonder why he didn’t go all the way and put “CEO?” I guess one should probably list a company as well when claiming that title. I like “Maven”. That’s a good one.
