Magnus Carlsen is the current world chess champion. He is considered the greatest chess champion to ever live. What makes Magnus Carlsen great is his ability to think outside of chess principles and conventional ideas. He challenges traditional chess wisdom. When in positions where it looks like he's lost, he somehow finds a way to save the game. He does this because he can see things other people struggle to see. When we think about the future of work, we need this same mentality. To challenge convention and to come up with new ideas. We must accept that the game has changed. We have to challenge our outdated notions of what it means to be an employee, what it means to be a leader inside of an organization, and even what it means to work. Now is the time for us to think beyond what we're used to. --------------------- Get the latest insights on the Future of Work, Leadership and employee experience through my daily newsletter at futureofworknewsletter.com  Let's connect on social!

It's very easy for us to become burned out in this new world we live in. We're surrounded by technology at our fingertips, and it’s easy to get exhausted because we’re constantly multitasking. Studies show that multitasking actually takes you 25% longer to complete both tasks. Multitasking isn't your friend. It does come down to being able to prioritize and figuring out what you should be working on and what can wait. Everyone wants things from you all the time--your friends, your boss, your coworkers, your spouse. These requests come in digitally and in person. Learning to say no and taking more control over our lives is crucial to success. A lot of us have a hard time saying no because we’re conditioned from an early age to say yes. It feels awkward to say no to people. But saying no is one of the best ways to prevent burnout. Learn to value your time. Saying no also allows you to build self-esteem and confidence. --------------------- Get the latest insights on the Future of Work, Leadership and employee experience through my daily newsletter at futureofworknewsletter.com  Let's connect on social!

Having a growth mindset is crucial to succeed in the future of work. There are a few things you can do to embrace this mindset: ✅View challenges as opportunities. Most people view challenges as opportunities to fail and as things they can't overcome. Instead, you should view any challenge you face as an opportunity to grow. You can do this by taking on more challenging tasks. Don't just play it safe. You can also find a creative path around your obstacles. Try to explore new ways of overcoming your challenges. ✅ Don't be afraid to ask for help. Don't be scared to bring in other people to help you accomplish your tasks. ✅ Set short-term and long-term goals for yourself. Setting goals allows you to work backwards to make sure you're taking the right steps to get where you want to be. --------------------- Get the latest insights on the Future of Work, Leadership and employee experience through my daily newsletter at futureofworknewsletter.com  Let's connect on social!
