Is making friends at work important to you? Stefan Korber, lecturer in innovation and entrepreneurship at The University of Auckland, says friendships with colleagues can be an important part of your working life – but they take effort to nurture. Writing in The Conversation UK, he says close ties with co-workers "can increase job satisfaction, provide a stronger sense of belonging and promote career advancement". It's good for employers too, with workplaces that encourage friendships often enjoying better collaboration and productivity But he says there is also a danger of relationships faltering, leading to discord at work. "There is no secret ingredient for workplace friendships. Instead, a balanced mix of ingredients and regular adjustments are needed," he writes. "Most importantly, it takes deliberate effort to re-balance work and friendship if things go sour."

Receiving feedback about your performance can be hard to hear. Now imagine there's an audience listening in on that conversation and you could think it's the stuff of nightmares. But according to founder Matt Schnuck, there's value in giving feedback in front of others. That way, everyone present can benefit from the advice and learning points. Schnuck points to the example of NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, who believes that giving feedback in groups gives everyone access to the same information and lets everyone contribute to solving a problem. "Feedback in front of others, done well, can be both empowering and incredibly impactful." Would you be open to receiving feedback in front of your peers? Tell us why (not).
Founder helping founders unlock potential | 10x founder, 3 exits | Follow for posts about Inflections in business and life.
Eliminate your 1:1s. Give feedback in front of groups. Here’s why: Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, has 60 direct reports and zero 1:1s. He flattened all hierarchy, and in doing so, removed all games of telephone that can often dilute company mission and directives. Jensen has one meeting with all 60 direct reports. During that meeting he gives individual feedback…in front of the entire group. Sounds frightening to the average person and, when done poorly, could result in a toxic culture. Feedback in front of others, done well, can be both empowering and incredibly impactful. Jensen believes that giving feedback in a 1:1 session robs the other 59 reports of learning that same lesson. Similar principles are used in big coaching workshops like those Tony Robbins runs. Tony gives feedback to one person in front of the whole room of 3-4k people. Everyone gets to reflect on the lesson and apply learnings to their own experience. This principle is modeled in our Inflection retreats as well. At a recent retreat, we did an unsolicited advice exercise that asked everyone to give advice to one person as though they weren’t in the room. Everyone wanted a turn in the hot seat. They saw how valuable it was to receive feedback in front of others and chose to do the same. In this exercise, in Robbins' seminars and in the NVIDIA culture, you have to opt in. And not everyone does. People walk out of Robbins’ seminars all the time. This type of culture doesn’t work for everyone and that’s ok! The people that don’t fit will leave. The people that stay will be a stronger fit for what you're building. ♻️ Repost this to share with anyone trying to give good feedback. And follow Matt Schnuck for more!

Our names can be invisible barriers to equal opportunity at work, according to leadership transformation expert John Amaechi OBE. "Imagine sending out 60% more job applications than your peers just to get an interview – simply because of your name," he writes. "This is the reality for many people with ethnically diverse names, who face bias before they even have the chance to prove their talent. It's a staggering statistic that highlights a much larger issue: the way biases affect pay, opportunities, and career progression." What can be done to remove these biases in the hiring process? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Your name shouldn’t determine your pay. But too often, it does. Imagine sending out 60% more job applications than your peers just to get an interview - simply because of your name. This is the reality for many people with ethnically diverse names, who face bias before they even have the chance to prove their talent. It's a staggering statistic that highlights a much larger issue: the way biases affect pay, opportunities, and career progression. Your name shouldn’t define your potential. Your name shouldn’t determine your worth. Your name should be a source of pride, not prejudice. But for too many, it becomes an invisible barrier to equal opportunity. And these biases don’t stop at hiring, they contribute to pay gaps, job stagnation, and unequal treatment in the workplace. Important work here from People Like Us.

Women juggle families, work and other responsibilities but fully remote jobs aren't the answer, according to entrepreneur Debbie Wosskow, OBE Wosskow. "Getting noticed at work and forming meaningful relationships is far more important for women than men," she writes. "Being in the room matters. And historically – women have often not had a seat at the table." Wosskow notes that it's unlikely women will "just be handed a seat at the table" so you have to earn it by being in the right places at the right time. Do you think remote working hinders career advancement? Share your thoughts in the comments.

I couldn’t agree more with what Emma Grede is saying here. I’ve long worried about the true implications of remote work for women. Is flexibility important? For sure. Women juggle families, jobs, and a ton of other responsibilities. But are fully remote jobs the answer? I don’t think so. Getting noticed at work and forming meaningful relationships is far more important for women than men. Because of one simple fact: Being in the room matters. And historically - women have often not had a seat at the table. And let’s face it, it’s unlikely you’ll just be handed a seat at the table. You have to earn it by being in the right places with the right people (i.e. making yourself visible). You can’t “be in the room” if you’re always working from your bedroom!

You shouldn't be afraid of gaps in your CV, says Katia Lysionak, a career coach. "Know your story," she writes, adding that candidates should not shy away from career gaps hoping nobody is going to notice. Think about how to manage any concerns a recruiter may have about time between roles and reassure them that you haven't lost your skills and knowledge. "Most people have them – it's a normal part of life," she adds. "It's not about having a perfect CV, but about how you tell your story. Not all gaps are created equal; a couple of months might not even need an explanation, while longer breaks require a bit more prep." How do you explain your CV gaps? Share your tips in the comments.
How to Explain Gaps in Your CV? Before we dive in, remember: a job interview is not a confession, but rather a negotiation. For successful negotiations, you need two things: information and confidence. You gain information through research and preparation. Confidence comes from clarity and, you guessed it, even more preparation. And part of that confidence is not overthinking things! 1. Know Your Story! Don't shy away from those gaps hoping nobody is going to notice. 👉 What gaps do I have? (Carefully review your CV.) 👉 What might concern recruiters? (Put yourself in their shoes.) 👉 How can I refocus their attention? (For example, if you have 10 years of experience and only a 1-year gap, highlight that!) 2. Manage Risks in their Heads: 👉 How can you prove you haven't lost your skills and knowledge? (Did you take courses, learn independently, or work on projects? Example: "During my break, I completed online courses in digital marketing.") 👉 How can you show you're motivated? (Talk about your plans and goals. Example: "I'm full of energy and ready to contribute to the company's growth.") 3. Practice Your Answers: 👉 Provide short, clear explanations for the gaps. (For example, "study," "family circumstances.") 👉 Prepare answers to common questions. (What did you do? Why? Why did you decide to return to work?) 👉 Rehearse your answers with friends. (Let them listen and give you feedback.) 4. Own Your Story! 👉 Don't lie! It will come back to bite you. 👉 Know your rights! There are categories of information they cannot ask you about! 👉 Wait for the question. Don't rush to explain gaps if you're not asked about them. 👉 Prepare answers that YOU feel comfortable with. 👉 Connect the gaps to the position. (Show how the experience you gained during the gap can be beneficial.) Don't be afraid of gaps in your CV! Most people have them—it's a normal part of life. It's not about having a perfect CV, but about how you tell your story. Not all gaps are created equal; a couple of months might not even need an explanation, while longer breaks require a bit more prep. But ultimately, it's not about the break itself, but what it represents. Manage that narrative, and you'll manage those gaps! #careercoaching #jobsearchtips #interviewprep

🤖 The European Union needs to rapidly upskill its citizens if it's going to capitalise on the benefits that artificial intelligence can bring, according to a report from LinkedIn's Economic Graph team. AI has been hailed as a technology that can help humans with everything from boosting office productivity to drug discovery. But a lack of talent is one of the biggest hurdles. 🗒 AI talent makes up just 0.41% of EU workers, LinkedIn's report, AI in the EU, found. While that's a 126% increase on 2016, and more than the UK (0.35%) and the US (0.34%), the bloc still needs more people who know how to get the most out of the technology. 📍 As it stands, just 26.3% of the EU's AI talent is female, which is less than the UK (27.7%) and the US (29.8%). It will take 162 years to reach gender parity if the gap keeps on closing at the current rate, according to the report. Addressing the gender imbalance in AI is one way the EU could try and close the skills gap, according to the report. In terms of AI's impact on the workforce, women are likely to be disproportionately impacted by AI, and generative AI (gen AI) in particular, which is capable of creating a variety of content including emails and presentations. Gen AI is poised to impact a number of jobs that tend to be held by women including medical clerks, clinical research assistants and sales operations assistants. 🗣️ What’s your take on these findings? Are you aware of AI’s impact and its presence within the EU workforce? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
