Office Hours: Is Executive Education Worth It?, Scott’s Take on the “He Gets Us” Campaign, and Expressing Anger in the Workplace

Campaign Messaging

Scott Galloway shares his initial impressions of the "He Gets Us" campaign, which aired during the Super Bowl. Despite his atheism and initial skepticism, he found the campaign's message of inclusivity and humility compelling. The ads depicted scenes of people washing each other's feet, symbolizing kindness and acceptance across different societal roles and identities 1.

I was moved by this. I absolutely love it. And I went into it expecting not to love it.

--- Scott Galloway

Scott appreciates the campaign's portrayal of Jesus as a figure of love and acceptance, resonating with his understanding of Jesus's teachings 2.

   

Controversial Affiliations

The "He Gets Us" campaign, while promoting messages of love and humility, is not without controversy. Scott Galloway discusses its financial ties to organizations with anti-LGBT and anti-abortion stances, such as the Servant Foundation and Hobby Lobby 2. Despite these affiliations, Scott believes the campaign's core message of kindness and generosity remains powerful.

Even if this group is supporting things you may not agree with...a message that says we should be kind and generous and wash each other's feet...how can that be wrong?

--- Scott Galloway

He acknowledges the potential for backlash from far-right commentators but maintains that the campaign's intent to appeal to younger audiences and those disillusioned with divisive Christianity is a positive step 2.
