Dr. Ethan Hein

Josh has a laser-beam commitment to making sure our social media efforts deliver tangible, measurable results to our clients. He has displayed considerable ingenuity in developing a system for rigorously tying social media clicks and interactions to our clients' top line performance. He has also developed a series of creative marketing initiatives ranging from straightforward Foursquare loyalty programs to groundbreaking "secret menu" programs with rich viral potential. Amidst all the uncertainty inherent in launching a new startup, Josh has kept a steady hand and shown unflappable cool. He's constantly willing to adapt and improve our offerings. I hope to keep learning from his innovative example for a long time to come, and I think he'd be an invaluable asset to any business lucky enough to have him on board.

Josh was a clear standout in the Columbia EMBA Program. Josh's entrepreneurial spirit and experience were refreshing to our class, which was comprised of accomplished and exceptional professionals. In courses such as Turnaround Management, which required teams to develop rigorous financial and strategic crisis plans, Josh's leadership skills and enthusiasm propelled his team's solution to the forefront. Even more inspirational was his continued pursuit of entrepreneurial ventures while excelling in every aspect of the program. I will definitely seek opportunities to work with Josh in the future.
