☆ The woman behind the Stanley Quencher's meteoric rise said she had to beg the company's executives to market to women
  + stars: | 2024-01-24 | by ( Erin Snodgrass | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Ashlee LeSueur, cofounder of The Buy Guide, told The Wall Street Journal that Stanley was resistant. AdvertisementStanley, which long marketed itself as an outdoorsy company for campers, construction workers, and — primarily — men, first introduced the Quencher cup in 2016. "Some of the executives had a really difficult time imagining a more female-leaning color palette on the Stanley products," LeSueur told The Journal. "I think the biggest difference when Terence came on was just that enthusiasm," LeSueur told the podcast. AdvertisementThe company's marketing shift worked: Stanley cups have become major status symbols at schools, sparked a collector's mentality around the mugs, and — in at least one case — led to a Stanley cup heist.

They’ve overheard talk of imminent firings, extravagant personal expenses and unprescribed Viagra use. The people who toil in low-profile support jobs often know a lot about exactly what’s happening inside your company. “There are a lot of things that I have heard or seen but can’t divulge,” says Suzy Dichairo , an executive assistant for 20 years. “So-and-so is cheating on their spouse—that type of scenario.”

☆ More Americans can buy investments earmarked for the rich. Why doing so may be risky, say experts
  + stars: | 2023-11-25 | by ( Greg Iacurci | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +7 min
Anyone can generally buy the stock of public companies on a stock exchange, or buy pools of stocks or bonds via publicly available mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. By comparison, private investments let people invest in companies that aren't listed on a public exchange. Julio Estela, 41, who lives in Wantagh, New York, made his largest private investment in 2021, in Green Coffee Company. Why private markets are 'two-tiered'Hxyume | E+ | Getty ImagesSome of the largest U.S. investors, such as pension funds, often have some exposure to private investments, proponents say. As with public stock, betting on one private investment instead of pooling risk in a fund of many private companies is an even riskier strategy, experts said.

☆ Your New Co-Worker Is a Total Drill Sergeant. Literally.
  + stars: | 2023-11-09 | by ( Callum Borchers | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Listen up, maggots. What this company needs is more effort and less whining, and I know just the person to set the tone: a drill sergeant or somebody who survived one. So goes the thinking at the companies that are lining up to hire the roughly 200,000 people who leave the military each year. The last jobs report before Veterans Day showed the unemployment rate for former service members is 2.9%, a full point lower than the overall U.S. rate.

☆ Want to Beat Your Return-to-Office Mandate? Try ‘Coffee Badging’ at Your Own Risk

A cup of coffee in the majors is the term for a short baseball career in the big leagues. Now some white-collar workers are leaving the office almost as soon as they arrive and calling the practice “coffee badging.”The difference is the ballplayer wishes he could stay; the people ditching their desks would rather not show up in the first place.

☆ Cancel That Brainstorm. There’s a Better Way to Spur Good Ideas.
  + stars: | 2023-05-18 | by ( Callum Borchers | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +5 min
The value of gathering to swap loosely formed thoughts is highly suspect, despite being a major reason many companies want workers back in offices. “You do not get your best ideas out of these freewheeling brainstorming sessions,” says Sheena Iyengar, a professor at Columbia Business School. He discovered that his 16-person team, now fully remote, thrives when people develop ideas on their own and can share them in writing. An Amazon spokesman adds that the company’s brainstorming sessions are sometimes unstructured but often begin with colleagues sharing well-researched memos, reducing time spent on ill-conceived ideas. Oh, he’s also noticed that the duds tend to come first, so to leave time for the good stuff, he prescribes two-hour meetings.
☆ Office Brainstorms Are a Waste of Time

Office wardrobe malfunctions? The value of gathering to swap loosely formed thoughts is highly suspect, despite being a major reason many companies want workers back in offices. “You do not get your best ideas out of these freewheeling brainstorming sessions,” says Sheena Iyengar, a professor at Columbia Business School. Mostly, though, grumblers have accepted such meetings as an inescapable office reality, like elevator Muzak and bad coffee. An Amazon spokesman adds that the company’s brainstorming sessions are sometimes unstructured but often begin with colleagues sharing well-researched memos, reducing time spent on ill-conceived ideas.

Early-career professionals prize work-life balance. Turns out many are bad at it. The youngest people in the office say the peers they most admire carve out personal time and live life on their own terms. Fancy titles and fat salaries are far less impressive, according to Deloitte’s annual survey of millennials and Gen Zers, shared with The Wall Street Journal ahead of next week’s release.

Executives are using artificial-intelligence tools such as Google’s Bard and Microsoft -backed ChatGPT to spiff up their communications, though the prevalence is hard to measure for one big reason: Some won’t admit to having AI assistance, lest employees think less of them.
