Mencipta keserasian tenaga kerja ibarat belajar koreografi tarian yang baru. Faktanya, kebanyakan daripada kita bukan penari profesional atau malaikat pejabat, jadi ia memang memerlukan usaha dan kesabaran untuk berkerjasama dan seiring dengan satu sama lain.

Another great time meeting our Regional Account Director from LinkedIn in person for the first time with our marketing team. During the meeting, I learned that the LinkedIn algorithm is a complex set of rules that determine which content appears in users’ feeds and how often it’s shown.

Happy Wesak Day, everybody! As we reflect on Buddha’s teachings on kindness and compassion, let’s also remember that being nice doesn’t mean being a doormat. We can still be assertive, set boundaries, and get things done without resorting to unkindness or aggression. As Buddha said, “If you propose to speak, always ask yourself, is it … Read more
