This week, host Nelson Kunkel welcomes the guest with the most unique title yet: Deloitte Digital’s Head of Social, Content, and Influencers. That designation goes to Kenny Gold, one of the newest members of our studio family who — in true Inside Deloitte Studios fashion — explains his role within the context of his unique life’s journey. That includes an obsession with classic SNL skits, a flirtation with a career in politics, and a moral foundation built by amazing first-generation grandparents who survived the Holocaust. With a performer’s flair, a networker’s innate ability to connect the dots, and an early-adopter’s gift for seeing digital trends long before others, Kenny is a welcome addition to our line-up. Influencers, take note.
