The Anti-Social Century and What It Means for Brands

Over the weekend, I found myself reflecting on Derek Thompson's recent article in The Atlantic, “The Anti-Social Century,” which examines how we in the U.S. increasingly are choosing isolation over connection and solitude over community. It's a powerful lens that offers insight into the cultural moment we're in as well as what this behavioral shift means for brands navigating our evolving zeitgeist. (And, no, Derek Thompson and I are not related, though his insights feel closely aligned with my reflections!)
