For companies searching for the best working environment for their employees post-Covid, the future might be hybrid. An example of the hybrid work model is for employees to spend certain days in the office for team meetings and collaboration and the rest of the time working from home. The framework is flexible and gives people the autonomy to structure their work around their lives. An organization working hard to help businesses better prepare and transition into a hybrid work environment is Ri...

Our working environments are evolving. While in the past it was common to spend decades at a company, it’s no longer the trend in today's workplace and shouldn’t be expected. Employers should instead focus on helping employees grow and achieve their long-term goals, even if those goals include them eventually moving on to their next endeavors. The relationship should end on good terms to create an alliance for the future. In this conversation with Markella Apergi, our Lifecycle Marketing Manager...

What do we do when we feel under too much pressure at work, when uncertainty seems unbearable, or when fear almost immobilizes you? A common individualistic approach is to put your head down, keep things to yourself, and power through. But this comes at a high cost. In the pursuit of getting things done, we inadvertently say no to meaningful connections. As a result, we feel lost, disconnected, unhappy. Multiply that to hundreds or thousands of people in an organization, and you have a pretty mi...

There is a reason why people refer to data as the new oil in recent years.

No need to rely on paper or mail surveys and handwritten notes that are prone to errors, today’s businesses can reach and engage with customers at their fingertips.
