Creating a leadership development plan is a critical step in forging a successful career path. A McKinsey study reveals that 70% of employees who received effective leadership training improved their job performance.

The Covid pandemic saw remote working adopted en masse for the first time, and therefore provided us with unheralded insight into what worked and what didn’t. While the general consensus among workers is that remote work is something they want to retain, managers are often keener for people to return to the office on a regular basis. An often voiced concern by managers is that remote working prevents younger employees from learning effectively from their peers.

Staying in touch with your team’s day-to-day challenges is important. It shows you’re willing to get out there, get dirty, and understand their jobs. One of the worst types of leaders to work for is the one who’s checked out—the one who has no basis in reality or understanding of what their team does. These individuals don’t always appreciate the hard work that the team does.

In the ’80s, researchers tried a job-training program called JOBSTART in 13 U.S. cities. It didn’t do much in 12 places, but in San Jose, California, things looked up.

I suspect most of us accept that the world isn’t a particularly fair place. Recent research from the University at Buffalo-State University of New York suggests that this general feeling of unfairness is universal, especially when we consider the likelihood of merit-based hiring. This is interesting, as previously there have been strong suggestions that conservatives are more likely to believe in the concept of merit in life and that we get where we are largely due to our own efforts, wher

Family is one of the most important things in most people’s lives, across cultures and geographies. Yet, the idea that family can be motivational at work has been overlooked. Instead, in the past, family has been mostly seen as competing with work for an employee’s finite resources, like their time and energy. A large body of research on work-family conflict drew on this notion and illustrated how work and family domains create conflicting demands and interfere with one another.

Lessons from the 4th of July On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress voted for independence from Great Britain. Two days later, the Declaration of Independence was adopted. This moment was marked by the ringing of the Liberty Bell at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. John Adams believed July 2 would be the date remembered by history. Instead the 4th of July has become the day we celebrate American independence.
