A Commerzbank AG bank branch, in the financial district of Frankfurt, Germany, on Thursday, Sept. 12, 2024. Krisztian Bocsi | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesCommerzbank and UniCredit are set to begin talks Friday, with the German bank on the defensive over a potential takeover after its Italian counterpart unexpectedly increased its stake earlier this month. Speaking at a financial conference, Orlopp said the German bank was open minded, but that the speed of synergies and risks needed to be considered. The potential for a takeover or merger has been met with opposition from Germany's government and several senior figures at Commerzbank. Orlopp herself earlier this month told journalists that the process had taken Commerzbank by surprise, but urged a calm approach.

Lelian Chew is the founder of The Atelier & Co, a Singapore-based luxury wedding planning company. I spent a decade at Goldman Sachs, working in Singapore and Hong Kong managing key relationships by flying to a different Chinese city each day. English wasn't his first language, so he misunderstood and thought I was starting a wedding planning business. He immediately asked me to help plan his son's wedding, insisting I take a look since I knew the family well. Many of our elder clients want to see their grandchildren uphold customs they cherish, like family crests and cultural elements.

• A diplomatic push is underway to prevent a regional war from erupting in the Middle East, with the US and its allies calling for a 21-day ceasefire across the Israel-Lebanon border as the UN chief urged all sides to “step back from the brink.”• The calls for calm come after Israel’s military said it was preparing for a possible ground incursion into Lebanon. It also said it was calling up two reserve brigades “for operational missions in the northern sector.”• As the conflict escalates, Israel and Hezbollah are trading waves of strikes, forcing tens of thousands in Lebanon to flee their homes. More than 90,000 people are newly displaced in Lebanon, the UN said. • While Israel and Hezbollah have refrained from declaring that they are at war with each other, their ramped-up conflict goals may make that moot.

CNN —Former Hungarian fencer László Csongrádi has been left so distraught by the theft of his Olympic gold medal that he has offered to leave it to the thief in his will if it is returned. Csongrádi, 65, won the Olympic gold in the men’s team sabre competition at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul. “For two weeks, I can’t calm down and be happy because everything reminds me of my stolen Olympic gold medal,” Csongrádi told Hungary’s Sportal website. “He could have taken other important things, but for some reason (the medal) was all he was interested in,” he added. “The thief touched many things, many fingerprints were left behind, but there is nothing to identify them.

It was the second knife attack on Japanese children and third assault on foreigners in China in recent months. “As a Chinese, I feel heartbroken, outraged and ashamed,” said a Shenzhen resident who laid a white rose outside the Japanese school following the boy’s death last Thursday. The killing has shaken the Japanese community in China, with some of Japan’s biggest companies offering to repatriate staff members and their families. Generations of Chinese grew up learning about the atrocities committed by Japanese soldiers in school textbooks and on state television. “There is no so-called Japan-hating education in China,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said Monday.

Glossing is a form of toxic positivity — in which people suppress and deny their negative emotions — and it could be holding you back. AdvertisementIt's not rocket scienceRinne said some signs of a glossing workforce are people not talking about tough issues at all or talking only behind their manager's back. If that's happening, leaders need to do some self-reflection, Rinne said, and ask themselves if they've been glossing. "You get more when people feel safe and feel engaged than if they're punching that clock and glossing for hours," Rinne said.
