Questions

You just came back from a conference that you were telling me about that wasn't targeting association CIOs, but was all about a topic that I'd think every CIO (or assn exec of any kind) would be interested in...could you talk to me a little bit more about that?
Non-dues revenue is a popular topic in our world of associations. What kind of ideas inspired by tech capabilities are you having these days about how your org (or others) might leverage AI, ML, or data analytics in the non-dues revenue realm? [In other words and using a dated reference, "Show me the money!"]
What about buying and selling data? I know you recently had a chance to attend the DataMoney Conference in New York, which is not a conference targeting association execs, but definitely an important conference for associations who have such a fountain of data they are working with...any big lessons from the conference in regards to buying and selling data in a smart "good guy" kinda way? :)
What are some of the questions association executives should be asking about their organization's use of AI and data analytics?
What about technology advancing faster than our understanding of it and the ethical issues that arise? What are some of the danger zones for mixing tech like machine learning with data management that is less than safe? Are there other ethical areas involving tech association execs should think about?
What websites, books, podcasts, magazines, people do you regularly check-in with to make sure you stay on top of those things you care about the most?
What's the best way for people to connect with you about speaking or anything else?

#87 FROM HOLLYWOOD TO SILICON VALLEY| Eric Kuhn Guests | Association Chat with KiKi L'Italien Feb 05, 2019

Show notes

About our guest: Eric Kuhn is a successful entrepreneur sitting at the intersection of media, entertainment and technology.

Most recently he helped start and run Layer3 TV, a next-generation cable provider that sold to T-Mobile. Previously Eric was Hollywood's first "social media agent" at United Talent Agency where he represented some of the industry's top writers, directors, actors and producers on investments, digital strategy and social media.

In 2009 Eric became CNN's Audience Interaction Producer, running social media and producing some of the first television programs that integrated digital platforms. He also is responsible for launching the National Basketball Association and CBS News on social media.

Passionate about the arts, this season he produced his first Broadway show: Harvey Fierstein's Torch Song. He also sits on the boards of Lincoln Center Theater and SeriesFest (an award-winning festival dedicated to showcasing episodic storytelling from around the world).

Questions:

What are you the most excited about in tech these days (that you can talk about) + why?
What kind of impact might this have on associations and nonprofits?
You and some of your collaborators have worked on projects with an intention to include social impact elements. How do you think association leaders might consider incorporating more social impact projects into their own meetings and events? Any words of advice?
During your career, you've helped some of the entertainment industry's biggest names better represent themselves and connect using technology. What can an association executive do today to raise their profile and stand out using social media in a noisy and saturated digital landscape?
You've been called the "Father of Influencers" - what do you think most people get wrong about influencer marketing?
What are some major mistakes you've seen people make with their social media use that that Association Chat viewers should avoid at all costs?
Another great talent of yours is navigating the business of technology. Based on your own experience, what areas of technological growth should leaders be paying special attention to these days?
You are always on the go, always traveling, always working, and yet you stay at the forefront of many different things: Technology, business, theater, ...what have you had to sacrifice time-wise in order to make it all work?
What websites, books, podcasts, magazines, people do you regularly check-in with to make sure you stay on top of those things you care about the most?
What's the best way for people to connect with you about speaking or anything else?
