As we round up another year, I like to take some time to reflect on what went right, what went wrong, what sucked, and what I accomplished. That last point, what I accomplished, always sticks out to me personally and I’m sure is a key metric to many others as they look back on how…

At Caliber, we value differing perspectives and inputs to provide our clients with holistic solutions. We understand that every individual has unique ideas and experiences, bringing us to conclusions that a single individual might not have thought of. Because of this understanding, we rely on and foster a collaborative approach to every situation. Though collaboration…

In true 2021 fashion, the Caliber elves have been hard at work preparing and transforming this year’s Chrisp-mix into something unlike you’ve ever seen before. To celebrate the most wonderful time of the year, the elves (and some guest elves) have created a Chrisp-mix cookie that encompasses Chrisp-mix in its original form but with a…

Session 3 of Leadership South Dakota took our class to Rapid City and just like the others, it was another great experience. This Rapid City experience was focused on Tourism, Natural Resources, and Military. Our First stop – Ellsworth Air Force Base. Admittedly, I know very little about Ellsworth or all the work that gets…

Mentoring is something that I really enjoy. I rarely turn down the opportunity to offer guidance to students or young professionals considering a career in advertising and marketing. Usually, you can tell in the first minute whether they give a darn or are just there because someone put them up to it.  Recently I was…

If you’re wondering, the answer is still ‘Yes – you should join Leadership South Dakota’ if you get the chance. Our group is still trading emails, ideas, feedback and making plans for our next stop – Rapid City. Session 2…

Who doesn’t love this time of the year? Beautiful Autumn leaves, cooler temperatures, spiced everything, but most importantly, football! At Caliber we like to enjoy this time of year with our annual NFL Pick’em contest. This is a friendly competition in which we pick the NFL teams that we think are going to win for…

A fascination of mine is the enneagram. Are you familiar? You may be thinking it is another one of those cliche “personality tests”, but to me, this one is different. I have taken countless personality tests and received results like “you are an ESFJ” or “your highest personality patterns are conscientiousness and extraversion.” Awesome, but…
