As an experienced leadership coach, I’ve discovered that there are four key levels of trust every leader needs to master to create an environment of openness, accountability, and peak performance.

Despite progress in the past decade, gender equity still remains uneven in U.S. companies. Coupled with recent political attacks on the very concept of DEI and declines in corporate commitments to racial and gender equity, there’s concern that the next decade may not bring as much progress as the last one — which is why we need to keep our foot on the accelerator when it comes to achieving gender parity at work.

Maybe your interviewer even assured you that you’d hear from them within a week or two, but now twice that amount of time has passed and they still haven’t made cont

But as companies race to automate their customer service operations in recent years, many are inadvertently creating new barriers for deaf and hard of hearing people.

The world of work has fundamentally changed. The series of waves that the pandemic began have rippled through the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, the Great Regret, and other eloquent phrases that boil down to the same thing: people aren’t engaged at work or enabled to perform at their best. The truth is that engagement and enablement is more important than ever, but how we do it is the critical differentiator for many organizations.

Years ago, when I was writing the first edition of The Next Level , I interviewed a very wise senior executive named Lucien Alziari. Lucien is currently the CHRO at Prudential and has served in comparable roles at Pepsi, Avon, Maersk, and other companies. One of the ideas he shared that really stuck with me was that the most successful executives are those that approach their work with a business first, function second mindset.

Minimizing FMLA abuse is crucial — with over 56% of U.S. employees covered by the law, it’s important to have strategies in place to address potential misuse and maintain a fair work environment for everyone. While there’s no definitive data on the prevalence of FMLA abuse, employers have filed lawsuits against employees accused of it.
