Project managers generally like plans and estimates so we can forecast when things should be done and how much they may cost. It helps manage client expectations and answer the type of questions they ask, such as " When will it be done? " and " How much will it cost? " So, when project managers hear about ideas such as "let's stop estimating," it can trigger a knee-jerk reaction.

Office decor plays a significant role in the mindset of employees. The way an office looks and feels can inspire a workforce for better and improve employee moods. It is because a decorated office is much more than just aesthetics. It’s the aesthetics combined with utility, which makes or breaks an employee’s enthusiasm to get to work. A beautifully equipped office also has positive effects on employee productivity and better hiring as well.

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.

Middle managers play an essential but often under-recognized role in leading organizational change. They may initiate change, and therefore be called to demonstrate leadership similar to that of top-level leaders. More often, middle managers are tasked with implementing changes that have been developed and sponsored by others. As such, middle managers play a ‘bridging role’ that poses unique challenges and demands a different type of expertise than other change leadership roles.
