The corporate landscape is changing right before our eyes. Numerous adjustments were seen in real time as companies grappled with the events of 2020, but the truth is that said events only accelerated changes that were already taking place. One of those is the rise of remote and hybrid working conditions. Hybrid work is, of […]
The purpose of a calendar has always been to calculate past or future times. Centuries ago, this had life or death implications as it let our ancestors know when to plant and harvest crops. It then evolved to remind us when festivals or religious ceremonies were to be celebrated. Today? We rely on our calendars […]
We all have those days when we convince ourselves that we aren’t as productive as we should be. Maybe it’s because you compare yourself to others or have fallen off the productivity rails. Regardless of the cause, we might hit the panic switch and frantically embrace new systems and processes. In reality? The root of […]
The global pandemic seems to be abating — but the wind has kicked up some dust. I was cooped up at home all last weekend. I decided to make the best of it by getting a jump on my upcoming week. You know, laundry, meal prep, tend the kids — and planning my schedule. I […]

There’s no shame in admitting that you get overwhelmed — it happens to all of us at some point. We only have so much time and energy to attend to all of our personal and professional responsibilities. To make matters worse? Unexpected events can make us feel like we absolutely zero control of our lives. […]
Despite the misconception, working from home isn’t a modern phenomenon. In fact, it’s been around in some form for hundreds of years. Still, at the beginning of 2020, just over 3% of the workforce worked remotely. And, then the pandemic devastatingly arrived. As a result, there was a surge in people working from the comfort […]
