Hello, my name is...

Scott Ginsberg wears a nametag 24/7 as part of a commitment to being friendlier and more approachable. Five years and counting, with a nametag tattoo for backup.

It is the simplest ideas that are the most powerful. Scott has built a career writing and speaking about approachability, and it looks like he has a lot of useful and thought provoking material. I’m looking forward to reading his book and more of his articles. But as soon as you hear that Scott wears a nametag all the time, the basic premise is both obvious and challenging: Being a nice person is not enough. Being truly approachable takes initiative and commitment. And that is true for businesses as much as for people.
