☆ 3 ways successful people navigate changes in life, from Melinda French Gates: Learn 'the value of embracing uncertainty'
  + stars: | 2024-06-19 | by ( Ashton Jackson | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min

Practice 'radical open-heartedness'Embrace moments of change — whether they're exciting, frustrating or tragic — with an open heart, French Gates advised. Many people prefer to keep their head down and power through the uncertainty, French Gates noted — including herself, when she was younger. And like the big wave, I thought things were coming to an end for me," French Gates continued.

She was estranged from her parents for decades, then reconciled with each late in their lives.

☆ Opinion | The Case for Obligation
  + stars: | 2023-05-20 | by ( Brad Stulberg | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
The roots of these mammoth trees, stretching some 200 feet into the air above us, run only six to 12 feet deep. Instead of growing down, they grow out, extending dozens of feet to each side, enmeshing themselves with the roots of their neighbors. This is why we never see a lone redwood: They can survive only in a grove, bound together in obligation. But in our age of autonomy, efficiency, boundaries and self-care, we too often deprioritize, if not overlook altogether, the wellspring of strength and meaning that comes from obligation. If we commit to certain people and activities, if we feel an obligation to show up for them, then it’s likely that we will, indeed, show up.
☆ A 32-hour work week helped this company's employees juggle self-care, side hustles, pets, and parenting 'without feeling like they're going to be penalized'

4-day work week trials have found a shortened work week can improve employees' work-life balance. vChief says its 4-day work week helps employees juggle jobs as parents, self-care, and side hustles. Niebauer said that the 4-day work week has helped the company with employee retention, and they've also attracted over-qualified candidates for the company's roles. "Without feeling like they're going to be penalized for it, without feeling like they're going to look like they're distracted at work." "I really believe that people shouldn't live their lives for work," Niebauer said.
☆ Employee surveillance is on the rise — and that could backfire on employers

[Employee surveillance] has increased excessively over the last few years … largely under the guise of ensuring workplace safety and confidentiality and protecting the business. It therefore comes as no surprise that demand for employee monitoring software has skyrocketed since the pandemic. Veriato is one of many employee monitoring software companies worldwide whose sales boomed because of the pandemic.

☆ From Nike to Nutella: Company names you have probably been mispronouncing your whole life
  + stars: | 2023-02-06 | by ( Hannah Ward-Glenton | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
Global company names often get Anglicized or Americanized to the point where they're unrecognizable, but brands could see some benefits if their names are pronounced correctly. Allianz: al-ee-anz"Allianz " is, perhaps unsurprisingly, the German word for "alliance." It isn't pronounced like the ancient Greek herald of the gods, Hermes, unlike the U.K. delivery company of similar spelling. Moët & Chandon: mow-et ey shon-donIn contrast to typical French pronunciation, there is a hard "T" sound at the end of "Moët." Heuer is the last name of the company's founder, Edouard Heuer.
