816 DAYS ... A ROADMAP OF CHANGEMY JOURNEY AS PRESIDENT OF MEDIATIVE

In 2009 and 2010, I had a hand in developing a narrative and helping with the
M&A activity that lead to the creation of Mediative. This became the national
agency of Yellow Pages Canada. It was a company that was put together through a
number of acquisitions which at the time allowed us to scale a national ad
network business, shopper marketing business and enterprise services businesses.
On January 6, 2014 I took over the role as President of Mediative.Read Full

TREATING AI LIKE A HUMANSHOULD YOU TREAT YOUR AI ASSISTANT WITH THE SAME RESPECT
AS A HUMAN?

Please and Thank-you. Simple phases that invoke action as well as gratitude.
Whether in person or in writing, they show a level of respect. The phrases we
where taught as children and hopefully when we grow up and enter the business
world continue as genuine expressions of our commands as well as gratitude.
Simple phases for sure, but what about when dealing with a machine?Read Full

Darby knows the future and can tell you what we will be talking about in 3 years
because he already tried it. He’s an SMB ninja and has been dedicating his
entire career helping and understanding them successfully. He can also help you
articulate, build or optimize your strategy and find the building blocks you
need to do it.

Because of him, I’ve learned never to trust the first impression and give people
time to explain their vision because of the odd chance to find a silver bullet.
That the shiny aspect of business development is only the tip of the iceberg and
that the real work starts after the handshake. That change is challenging in any
organization and learned how to navigate political minefields with his guidance.
That leveraging technology is the ultimate enabler for any organization who’s
looking to stay or get ahead of the curve.

I have had the pleasure of being Darby’s associate for the last 8 years at YPG
and Mediative. I have enjoyed every minute. Darby’s ability to network, look to
the future of business and realize ways of monetizing solutions within the tech
industry are just a few of his greatest strengths. His value to the sales
organization and YP ‘s transformation overall, goes beyond simple words. Wether
there was a need for innovation, a new acquisition to assist with future growth
or just providing knowledge and mentorship to the YP sales organization., Darby
was a leader in every aspect.

JEFF KNISLEY, VICE PRESIDENT SALES AT RISE PEOPLE

Darby is a rainmaker capable of defining and executing on new business models
and revenue streams. His depth of knowledge about technology evolution and
trends combined to a product approach unlocks great business opportunities.

What strikes me the most with Darby is his capacity to think outside the box and
bring innovative angles with a unique data-driven manner. As a leader and
executive Darby was always keen on providing some generous insightful feedback
and recommendations. It was always a great pleasure as a product director to
brain pick Darby and benefit from his wisdom. He’s a real tech industry leader
and an awesome human being who knows how to have fun at work and rally a team.

landscape with a true passion for innovation and the future of the industry.

Darby has a unique talent for identifying game-changing trends, helping others
see the broader opportunity, and bringing clarity and solutions to complexity.
Whether building teams or driving deals forward, Darby is measured,
approachable, and a highly respected business partner and industry leader.
