In my opinion, the January 6 Special Committee hearings accomplished its goals of informing viewers who were not previously closely following the January 6 reporting, and/or forgot about the attempted coup that led to the violent insurrection and loss of life during the certification of President Joe Biden’s election.

Defining a magazine, to some, is a very mercuric issue. To others, it is a clear cut definition. During some recent readings, I came across this definition from the book Magazines In The United States published in 1956. However, the definition is from 1908.

When you’re running a business, it can be easy to become fixated on the bottom line. After all, you’re not the only one depending on your company to grow and thrive. Your investors, your partners, your staff, and your customers will all suffer if your business isn’t financially stable.

I can tell if you are conning me – some of the time.

During my years as a therapist, it became second nature to notice the body language of my clients. During our conversations, I would sit across from people and try to infer from their nonverbal signals how they really felt about an issue.

The first presidential campaign I remember was 1968 when Vice President Hubert Humphrey ran. He suffered from a very late start—too late to participate in the Democratic primaries—due to President Lyndon Johnson’s shocking March 31 announcement that, “I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as your president.” From the start, Humphrey would have had to pull off a near miracle just to be nominated.

What does purpose, management, empathy, content, inclusion and burnout have in common? As it happens, they are what most conversations, coverage and case studies related to employee engagement and experience are focused on these days. We spent some time on these six topics to observe what’s changing and why, what it means for the future and how we can make the most of it in the present. Our findings were summarized in Red Havas’ newest white paper, The (Six) Biggest Waves in Employee Engagement — and How to Ride Them.

People go into entrepreneurship when they feel that their creativity does not fit into a corporate environment or simply want a life away from nine to five. Entrepreneurs are important to market economies because they create new products and services and therefore serve as important factors in a country’s growth and development. Passion, willingness to improvise and listen to others, as well as the determination to succeed, make a successful entrepreneur. Once all is going well, a business owner will want to extend his services globally and he or she must be ready to surmount the main brick wall which is the language barrier. There will always be a need for some quick translation of documents or speech when collaborating with clients or employees overseas. Here are some quick translation tips for a successful entrepreneur.

If orange is the new black, and fifty is the new forty, doing more with less is the new work normal. Expectations are up, resources are down. This seems universally applicable to communicators regardless of where they reside: company, nonprofit, government, or agency. Employees leave, positions aren’t rehired and the work simply shifts to remaining staff. Work responsibilities significantly increase (congratulations) without adding people or funds (uh oh). Communicators are expected to wear not just many hats but every hat, and to wear them all happily without a hint of resistance.

Starting a new business is never easy, but with the help of technology, you can give yourself a better chance for success.

No entrepreneur should ignore technology trends, which could be the key to success.

Remote work has been largely removed from the American workforce picture, but in its place has come hybrid working. According to CNBC, 25% of people are now employed through hybrid working, with 14% mostly in-person, and 9% mostly working remotely. While some employers have seen remote working as a simple necessity, with a return to the office greatly anticipated, the benefits of the opposite approach has shown itself to have considerable benefits. Starting with overall employee happiness, remote working has revolutionized business in a way that has led to successes across the board.

Over the last two decades, we have seen the rise of the nonprofit industry. Like its counterpart in the for-profit arena, nonprofits are becoming more specialized in their offerings and positioning. Today, there are nonprofits who have programs that are similar to one another and therefore considered to be direct competition. Look around – environment, healthcare, racial justice, children, education, animals, and many more initiatives for people to invest their time. 

As you can imagine, most freelancers work from the comfort of their homes. Most of them, but not all! There are also those who, being freelancers, are in no hurry to change the office environment for home comfort. And some rush to the office after working at home for several months. Please don't think they get frustrated with freelancing. They are fine with this. Many freelancers are moving away from working from home and buying or renting offices. This behavior is because of some reasons. Let's look at each of them.
