People who doubt their abilities to the point they sometimes feel they don’t deserve to have the role they have landed suffer from “imposter syndrome.” A recent Harvard business review survey canvased Fortune 500 CEOs and found that 95% of them had suffered at times from imposter syndrome, or feeling they would be ‘found out’ that they weren’t up to the job.

The Chief Twit is, unsurprisingly and as advertised, being a twit. It is hard to look at the sight of the world’s richest person jeopardising his newly-acquired business, his fearsome reputation and an immense fortune, and not think: “Wow.” And not in a good way. I had huge admiration for Elon Musk’s success, and I respected the way he earned it.

When employees are looking for suitable learning resources, they can often choose from a wide range of contents and formats. This can often make finding learning content that meets the specific requirements time-consuming and inefficient. Technology can solve this issue.

I have long been fascinated by group interaction. My academic journey was kickstarted by my days as a professional jazz trumpeter, where group dynamics and team leadership were critical to how well teams could improvise creatively. As a social scientist, I have spent the last two decades studying similar issues in the workplace. So, how can teams foster creativity in the workplace?

Now that the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic seems to be behind us, many companies are considering the idea of bringing remote employees back to the office. However, making the change is more complicated than just flipping a switch. Many employees have grown accustomed to spending more time at home with their families, and some people are still worried about catching the virus. Thus, you need to handle the situation properly or your employees may not agree to return. At the very least, they will be unhappy and, in turn, less productive.
