I heard it again today: “Artificial intelligence is taking over. It won’t be long until it puts me out of a job.” My response: “If AI can replace you, you’re not putting enough effort into your career.” Does it sound harsh? Maybe…but it’s the truth. Administrative professionals who are constantly innovating, willing to embrace AI instead of fearing it, and doing their best to learn and grow with the changing times and technologies are not at risk of being replaced by AI.

Company culture matters. In fact, it’s one of the most significant factors that younger generations consider when deciding to stay at or apply for a job. Unfortunately, it’s also something managers may neglect until it starts to cause problems. If their approach centers around pain points, issues are likely addressed as they arise, while their causes are ignored.

While many companies have focused on moving work-from-home employees “ back to work ,” Millbrook Companies—which comprises three marketing and communication firms—took a different approach. Instead of finding a traditional office building as its headquarters, with cubicles, watercoolers, boardrooms and corner offices, Millbrook’s leaders went on a mission to find the perfect space to encapsulate what hybrid work really means.

The restrictions brought about by COVID-19 altered where we work and thus also how, when and through which channels we do work related activities. These changes radically altered the way previously office-based workers thought about ‘work’ as an activity. This new era of hybrid working had a significant impact on traditional models of workplace provisioning.

But beyond this, flexible workspaces are now contributing to the community in a variety of ways, from helping to reduce the carbon footprint of daily commutes, to driving local economic growth and supporting local charity initiatives. A report by Regus revealed that local economies stand to benefit from coworking spaces located outside of metropolitan areas.

Owning a home business can be exciting and empowering, but it can also be challenging and isolating. With no coworkers to bounce ideas off of, no boss to provide guidance, and no office culture to rely on, it’s easy to feel alone and overwhelmed. That’s why having a strong support system is essential for home business owners. A support system can provide the emotional and practical support, advice and guidance, and networking opportunities needed to succeed as a home business owner.

Or the classic dressing room dilemma: someone asking how they look in this and you struggling between a lie and the answer that is less than flattering.
