In the last two decades, humanity has made more progress than in the previous century alone. That says one thing about innovation- it’s inevitable. Cultivating an innovation culture is a must to ensure that your company is able to leave its mark. According to the Government of New Zealand , innovation can be defined as: The creation, development, and implementation of a new product, process or service, with the aim of improving efficiency, effectiveness, or competitive advantage.

Whether you’re a rookie or have had years of experience, managing people is tough. Taking on the role of a people leader will come with plenty of ups and downs, but luckily, each mistake can lead to positive changes and continuous growth and development. Every company, team, and direct report is unique, however, certain manager mishaps can be predictable, and therefore, (somewhat) preventable.

Few words inspire optimism and hope for the future like "opportunity". But as I reveal in this latest installment of my Leadership Espresso Shot series, the truth is our relationship with opportunity is much more complicated and worthy of more reflection and review. Granted, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, pondering our relationship with opportunity might seem like something that should be examined at a later date, when the situation is calmer or at least more certain.

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.

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.
