Women’s experiences as parents in the workplace are completely different from men’s. Men get a “fatherhood wage premium,” while mothers encounter a “motherhood penalty” in wages and advancement opportunities. One might think that women without children have workplace advantages on a par with their male counterparts. But they don’t. The maternal wall hinders all women’s careers, whether they plan to have children or not.

My girlfriend is a manager at a psychiatric office, but I feel that her male boss crosses the line in conversations — for example, giving her his opinion on periods and how she shouldn’t have one and telling her she should get a IUD and so on.

You may not have given employee engagement models much thought, but the statistics suggest you should. Gallup estimates that low employee engagement leads to staggering annual losses of $8.9 trillion – nearly 10% of the world’s GDP. Additionally, 62% of employees report feeling disengaged, and 15% actively disengaged. The former typically put in minimal effort at work, and the latter often demotivate their colleagues with their disillusionment and pessimism.

This post was written by Alison Green and published on Ask a Manager. A reader writes: One of my employees texts me at 10:45 pm. I’m wondering how I can firmly but fairly lay down boundaries and let her know it’s not okay or respectful of my free time to message so late. I answer this question — and three others — over at Inc. today, where I’m revisiting letters that have been buried in the archives here from years ago (and sometimes updating/expanding my answers to them).

Many organizations become locked in a self-created paradox while pursuing sustainable leadership. While striving for long-term sustainability, they unintentionally damage their efforts through traditional recognition processes. This disparity between sustainability objectives and employee recognition is more than a small oversight; it is a significant problem at the core of many business plans.

As an executive leadership coach, I’ve worked with numerous leaders who have struggled with the detrimental effects of toxic employees within their organizations. Toxic employees can have a significant negative impact on team morale, productivity, and overall company culture. It’s essential for leaders to identify these individuals early on and take appropriate action to mitigate their influence.

2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up. Thought diversity - the fuel for new ideas, fresh perspectives, and disruptive innovation - is more than a buzzword. It's a survival strategy. And if you’re not building it into your workplace culture right now , you’re heading for trouble.

"The best in the world are not the best because they win every point. It's because they lose again and again and have learned how to deal with it."

Today, we’re diving into a challenging yet crucial topic: leading someone with a victim mentality. Let’s jump right in! Victim mentality is that mindset where someone feels something is always happening to them, and they can’t do anything about it. Have you seen it? Someone on your team who constantly blames others for their circumstances, never taking responsibility for their actions.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

A survey from the American Management Association found that leaders and their reports diverge on how best to lead, and whether managers can shift when needed. According to a new survey, leaders aren’t in sync with their employees about how their leadership styles are perceived, and leaders also struggle to “flex” across different management styles.
