What would you think if I said that we can learn a lot about building a future-ready culture from loading the dishwasher?
And yes, I am being 100% serious!?
Most of us like to load the dishwasher in a particular way, and we tend to think that our way is the right way. Now replace "loading the dishwasher" with "developing a project plan" or "pitching the client" or any number of things you do throughout your work day.
There are always alternative?approaches in every situation, and being open to new approaches will?help you navigate the future of work and build a future-ready culture.?
Watch this 60-second video to learn more how staying open to new possibilities – even ones you disagree with – can help you foster innovation and become future-ready.
Future Of Work: Summary Report
A new report on The Future of Work is OUT! I was happy to contribute to this report by McLean & Company along with other experts and thought leaders. (Part of me was like WOW – look who I’m with! I’m still a little kid at heart…see the pic below.)
Given that 50% of the planet is undergoing elections this year, I thought this was on point:
"The definition of what it means to be a leader is undergoing a profound transformation...With an anticipated increase in workforce diversity and an environment of polarization, leaders must be able to manage interpersonal complexities in the workforce to a far greater extent than ever before."?
And this:?
Employee preferences are changing:?71% of those between the ages of 18 and 29 report they are willing to leave their employer for another that creates a more positive social impact.
Just 29% of those over the age of 60 reported they would do the same.?
You can download the Summary Report here:?https://hr.mcleanco.com/research/ss/future-of-work-summary-report ?
Full report out in September.

3 个月This is a great visual! We often argue about loading the dishwasher in our house! One of the arguments is about overloading it, which I think works with your analogy.
