Have you recognized your team this week? Labor Day may mean the end of summer, but it's also meant to provide a hearty "well done" for the contributions workers have made to America’s strength, prosperity, and well-being. Those labor leaders in the 1880's may not have had AI, LinkedIn or even electricity (in fact, it came to a limited area of NYC that same year) but they were right in line with today's thinking - recent studies show that employees who receive regular feedback are 3x more likely to be engaged than those who don’t receive feedback at all. So this week, take a moment to recognize your team's efforts - and don’t underestimate the power of appreciation!

Summer's on its last legs. As the fun dies out, encourage your sales team to conduct a post-mortem for the season. Reviewing the last three months of what worked and —what didn’t—has real value: research shows 2.5x increases in success among teams who effectively apply lessons learned. So before you rush back to the grind, use reflection as a tool for progress. Then refine and refocus your efforts and tackle the last quarter head-on.

Today, on what the internet calls "National Workaholics Day" it's worth remembering that taking a break has many benefits, including increased productivity and satisfaction. So go ahead, log off...it may just make you a better employee or leader. https://bit.ly/4jD4qZn

Pride’s global call to inspire, to educate and to commemorate should remind us that every day of every month is an opportunity to broaden our curiosity, practice allyship and honor what makes each one of us unique. We’re all better when we can be our true selves.

Today we celebrate Juneteenth. A day of commemoration and contemplation, of facing head-on the transgressions of America's past. This day is evidence that change is possible, that we must continue to engage in courageous conversations and to hold each other and ourselves accountable. Together we can acknowledge the past while driving the future and we must continue to advocate for what’s right, no matter what lies in the way.

This month, we join the world in celebrating Pride and the LGBTQ+ community. We’re all better when we can be our true selves and this year more than ever, it’s important to remember that every day of every month is an opportunity to broaden our curiosity, practice allyship and honor what makes each one of us unique.
