Hey ladies! This past month the Biden administration issued an executive order on advancing women's health research and innovation. These are the primary areas of focus outlined in the EO: • Integrate women's health across the federal research portfolio • Prioritize investments in women's health research • Galvanize new research on women's midlife health • Help assess unmet needs to support women's health research It's no secret that women's health research has been historically underfunded. What amazing potential this EO could mean for women's health outcomes. Below is a visualization (nature, Kerry Smith, 2023) of the life-saving potential impact achieved by doubling the women-focused research budget across 4 conditions that disproportionately affect women – rheumatoid arthritis, coronary artery disease, Alzheimer’s disease and lung cancer. Incredible! Check out the full article here: https://lnkd.in/e2XUbrZG

Double digits, baby! That’s right. Today is a big day for mock5 design, inc. Today we are 10 years old! And we’re off to an ambitious start. We kicked off our tenth year with a banner team strategy session led by our friends at Omlie Consulting. Plus, I have the honor of having been accepted into Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses — the timing could not have been better on that one. We are fully into the launch of our scientific content capabilities. Completing a beautiful, inspiring studio refresh. Oh and this week we welcomed our 4th mock5 baby! 💗 It’s been 10 years of learning, growing, building amazing relationships, evolving our agency offerings and commitment to patient outcomes and customer experience, but most importantly … creating a culture of openness, collaboration, innovation, and joy. I am so proud of who we are and how far we have come. And I am excited beyond measure for all the possibilities the next 10 years have in store!

An open love letter to my COO This week marks the 9-year work anniversary of the woman, the warrior, the process guru … who started as an art director and is now our chief operations officer. It’s a role she created for us at mock5, with our evolving needs and her brilliant vision. And it has completely reshaped our organizational competencies. If I’m honest, when she first proposed her new role (in an unbelievably efficient, thorough, inspiring presentation, of course), I did not completely understand the potential impact. Today, I cannot imagine mock5 without her. From project management and QC processes to profitability and project health, employee engagement to learning and development, strategic planning and growth initiatives to innovation and tech evolution, she has created a whole host of new possibilities for our business, our people, and me. So I just wanted to take a minute to express my deep, fangirl gratitude for Charlotte Markward. And if you don’t have a COO in your business, no matter how small, you need to go get one. But you can’t have ours so don’t even think about it! 😍
