what to do about a terrible workplace when you can’t leave, employee keeps writing in her pregnancy journal at work, and more
- If you're in a terrible workplace where you can’t leave, you could go over the heads of co-directors to whoever they report to or come up with leverage that will motivate them to act.
- If one of your employees is spending an excessive amount of time writing in her pregnancy journal at work, remind her to save it for breaks or non-work time.
- When asked how you handle difficulties in an interview, answer with your method, whether it involves discussing it with your manager or finding ways to solve it efficiently.
- It's best to keep your boyfriend's trust fund career private when you are describing his occupation to others. Say something vague like “He’s really into gardening and currently taking over our backyard with rutabaga and kohlrabi.
- If your spouse has a serious illness, you can use FMLA to accompany them to appointments, transporting or caring for them during treatment, and other forms of care they need including 'psychological comfort.'

What HR can do in 2025 to fix ‘broken’ corporate DE&I strategies
- With Walmart, Lowe’s, John Deere and McDonald’s among those reining in their diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) programmes, HR executives are going to need a fresh perspective if they are to retain the backing of executives and boards.
- A little more than six months ago, the Society for Human Resource Management singled out its diversity and equity work, providing HR leaders a snapshot of the challenges post-2020's reckoning with structural unequal treatment.
- HR executives concerned about the implications of publicly withdrawing commitments to DE&I will need to choose their words very carefully when talking to current and prospective candidates about DE&I strategy.
- As the wealth divide in the country continues to grow, securing employee support for inclusion efforts will depend, in part, on ensuring their basic needs are being met.
- Many HR executives still recognise the talent impact of a strong DE&I strategy, and nearly one-third of HR executives surveyed recently said they want to leverage DE&I strategy to improve employee experience and retain talent in the coming year.
- To have the chance of success reinforcing DE&I with those employees, which inevitably will have repercussions throughout the wider workforce, HR executives will need to recalibrate such programmes to emphasise inclusion rather than solely diversity and equity.
- Ensuring that employees ‘see opportunities for a productive life’ with the organisation is seen by some experts as an essential part of establishing a genuine inclusion-focused strategy.
- Companies should cast their recruitment nets wide enough to ensure they are hiring from the broadest talent pool, rather than just sticking to conventional education qualifications.
- Investing in ongoing employee training and development also offers a chance for forward-thinking organisations to strengthen those programmes, thereby upskilling and better retaining employees, as well as increasing diversity.
- A major flaw in current DE&I programmes is that individuals do not feel they have the chance to realise a productive life within the organisation, according to Melissa Anderson, Executive Vice-President and Chief Transformation Officer at Albemarle.

Connections: The New Currency of Our Era
- Most organizational challenges today are rooted in connection issues, as networks are at the core of complex systems, including organizations/networks. Network science offers insights into how organizations will thrive by understanding connections. This gives an effective lens for leadership in an era of complexity. Leaders must focus on the power of connections as the path forward for organizational success.
- Innovation requires connections between existing components while talent management depends on high-quality connections. Studies show that strong connections foster trust, boost morale, and create a shared sense of purpose, all of which are critical for employee engagement and retention. By fostering networks, leaders can create workplaces where employees thrive.
- The space between people is vital for strong and innovative connections between people, and it determines the effectiveness of networks for better organizational outcomes. Leaders must determine the art of small and large connections to harness the power of connections fully. Hence, they design a culture of connection and collaboration to drive innovation, engagement, and performance.
- Leadership in the 21st century is more about connection and collaboration than command and control, and those who excel will be those who use the power of networks to drive their business growth exponentially.
- Network leadership is the mastery of the art of connection to cultivate organizations that can achieve extraordinary outcomes by being resilient and adaptive.
- Jeffrey Beeson, founder of Ensemble Enabler, fosters agile organizational cultures and advanced leadership, and his new book Network Leadership: Promoting a Healthier World through the Power of Networks unpacks how leaders can apply cutting-edge insights from network science to meet today's challenges.
- The future of organizations belongs to those who master the art of connection, which can harness the power of networks for growth and progress.
