Gallup, an analytics company that focuses on the attitudes and behaviors of people in the workplace, defines employee engagement as individuals that are “emotionally and behaviorally connected to their job and company”.

The popularity of consulting firms among top students has perhaps never been higher. Why all the recent love? The reason most often cited is that top consulting firms can offer that middle ground of strong compensation without the brutal hours associated with investment banking, though there has been some debate about the latter point.

Recruiters are undoubtedly some of the most resilient and motivated people in the working world.

Recently the Chief HR Officer for a healthcare firm asked us to identify the best new framework for leadership that she could use to train and develop a cadre of high potentials. The challenge, she said, was that these managers were highly proficient in their own disciplines such as finance, marketing, research, clinical care, and insurance reimbursement — and had demonstrated that […]
The words service agents use to engage customers often end up backfiring. More and more consumers are engaging with customer service through digital channels, including websites, email, texts, live chat, and social media. In 2017, only half of customer experiences with companies involved face-to-face or voice-based interactions, and digital interactions are expected to represent two-thirds of customer experiences within the […]
Conscious of their environmental impact, consumers in the United States and United Kingdom are increasingly choosing sustainable brands. Corporations like Starbucks, American Airlines, and Marriott Hotels are among many now banning plastic straws, an initiative against single-use plastics that cities like Seattle and New York have also enacted or proposed.

FIVE YEARS AGO, the coders at DeepMind, a London-based artificial intelligence company, watched excitedly as an AI taught itself to play a classic arcade game. They’d used the hot technique of the day, deep learning, on a seemingly whimsical task: mastering Breakout, the Atari game in which you bounce a ball at a wall of bricks, trying to make each […]

CBD (cannabidiol), the completely legal, non-psychoactive calming property found in marijuana, has been touted throughout NYC as a weed substitute and a wellness fad, found in restaurants that are either (1) seeking relevancy or (2) mixing it with activated charcoal.
