Social isolation and loneliness are related, but not the same thing. Social isolation refers to having relatively few relationships and/or infrequent contact with others. Loneliness is the perception of feeling alone, or feeling disconnected from others. Someone can be isolated and not feel lonely. They may even like and seek out solitude and being alone.

February is the month of love, so in honor of St. Valentine, let’s talk about love at work. No, I’m not referring to workplace romances. That’s not my area of expertise. But, if you’re looking for my advice on the topic—DON’T DO IT. I’m actually more interested in talking about love FOR work. Some people have it, some people don’t. For some, it depends on the day.

CIPD is sort of the UK version of the U.S. trade group the Society for Human Resource Management ( SHRM ). They recently released More selfies? UK self-employment continues to rise , a new report in their megatrends series. At this point you'd almost have to live in a cave to not be aware of the trend towards increased self-employment. And while that may be an overstatement, you certainly wouldn't be reading this blog unless you're aware of it.

There are several reasons why this post nearly didn’t get written. First, I don’t usually make resolutions to start off the year. Second, I don’t begin my year in January. I also don’t find yearlong resolutions to be helpful – there are numerous studies that outline how resolutions often don’t work. So this year after I went through the Yearly Words exercise – something I feature in my “anytime” annual planning program The NOW Year Action Plan Course – I decided to use the same three

Does your sales strategy have a well-articulated e-commerce component ? Perhaps you don’t have a choice. If your company doesn’t have a physical office or product from which to hawk goods or services, e-commerce is necessarily the be-all-end-all of its sales strategy. This is a much more common arrangement than many realize. For now, most consumer-facing businesses maintain some sort of physical presence out in the world, whether that means a dedicated storefront, a mobile stall, a truck or van,

Subcontracting is a lucrative opportunity to scale your business up without incurring the overheads associated with it. A freelancer who executes all projects by herself may only be able to take on fifty or sixty hours of work each week.

If you’re running a business online, then it’s likely you have a website (rather than just being present on 3rd party platforms). If you don’t have a website, then it’s likely it’s a consideration, and with good reason. Not only does building a website give your brand a strong online identity, it can also introduce you to customers that wouldn’t be able to visit a bricks and mortar business.

Working 9-5 isn’t just one of Dolly Parton’s best-known songs, it’s a state of mind, a shorthand phrase for the working day and the weekly grind. While those hours used to signify the typical working day up until a few years ago, more modern flexible working policies seem to have shifted it a bit. Not a huge amount, though, just enough to make the day easier.

There are lots of reasons people still love and will always love going to stores: The ability to interact with products hands on. The opportunity to have unique and exciting experiences. The social elements of shopping with friends, family or even strangers. But there is one element that most distinguishes physical retail from online retail and still defines why people shop in stores – human staff.
