This needs to stop.
Posting online about helping someone homeless, suicidal or vulnerable in any way, for your own benefit, isn't kind.
This week, we posted a?video ?about this topic that went semi-viral on LinkedIn, hitting 270K impressions organically.
It really hit home with a lot of people.
Thought for the day:?Why we hire on attitude first?(more on this below...)

This week, I watched a?video ?about 'The Line' which blew my mind...and it's about to blow yours.
The Line is a proposed smart linear city in Saudi Arabia in Neom, Tabuk, currently under construction, that will have no cars, streets or carbon emissions.
The 170-kilometre long city is part of Saudi Vision 2030 project, which Saudi Arabia claims will create 380,000 jobs and add $48 billion to the country's GDP.
I'm getting end of the world, sci-fi movie vibes, what do you think?
Thought for the day:?Why we hire on attitude first...
We always hire on attitude before skills.
We can teach skills, but it's very difficult to change someone's attitude.
This week, seeing the below message in slack reinforced that we are doing the right thing.
Jae from our team upcycled a box into a 'gratitude box'.
People can put nice messages about others in there and every Friday we read them out in our weekly meeting.
Today is the first day we're doing this and I can't wait!
How nice is that.
Made me so happy seeing this message in slack.
Happy Friday!! ??

2 年I report these videos… without fail. Oftentimes they’re removed. They suck, and the people posting them suck. Help people without bragging or without the aim of self promotion. Simple.

2 年Couldn't agree more! It sums up the me-first attitude of the world, to be honest! Real compassion/empathy has no desire to be seen or celebrated!
