Linked – What You Need to Know About the Misinformation Effect
Because if you read enough misinformation, you can’t help but be influenced by it. The people who put out all this false information know it, too.

It is implausible that everyone in the organization is an…
Linked – Microsoft Reduces Office’s Functionality to Push You Towards Copilot

There’s Only One Way to Prove Them Wrong – Beat Them.
We know these strategies create a better workplace, so I see a simple mandate as business owners: Ignore the pressure to scale back DEI efforts and remote working opportunities. Embrace both, hire the best talent in the labor market, and create dynamic, engaged teams.
