You’ve probably been there before: sitting in a meeting when someone asks a question that you could have sworn was covered in last week’s email. There’s no time to search your inbox. The conversation has moved on and now you are trying to reconstruct bits of information from colleagues on the hallway or over lunch. […]

Every day at school is full of moments that could go so differently because of how that communication gets played out.

You know that moment in a team meeting when someone puts up an idea, and instead of a discussion flowing from it, it gets met with… awkward silence?

Every day we use messaging apps – to discuss deals, agree on details with clients, and solving work issues. It seems harmless, right? But here’s the thing: imagine you send a message containing a deal recommendation or sensitive information to a client. A few months later, regulators come for a check, and that message is nowhere […]

Data security often feels like that overly cautious colleague who locks up everything – even the stapler. But when it comes to protecting sensitive information, they’re not wrong.

While many boast […]

Good communication skills are not the same as people’s skills. Sometimes, these two types of skills don’t go hand in hand. An employee might be able to express their ideas and opinions clearly and properly but still fail to form connections with colleagues. No matter how brilliant this employee might be, the lack of interpersonal […]

If you feel like you need a vacation after a vacation or just another day off after the weekend, you’re not alone. The transition get back to work after seasonal holidays is always stressful.
