Tune in, as I discuss the pros and cons of remote work. This can help you decide what flexible option works best for your career needs and growth, as it is not a one-size-fits-all.

Remote workers point to violence, crime and a decrepit mass transit system as reasons not to return to New York City offices.

New York City has a crime, violence, drug and homelessness problem. This could have serious repercussions for people contemplating returning to work at their offices.

Gun violence has become so rampant that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo “issued the first-in-the-nation executive order declaring gun violence in New York as a disaster emergency."

Residents of New York and the neighboring commuting Tri-State area, including New Jersey and Connecticut, are pushing back on returning, citing both physical and health safety reasons.

The job market has heated up and so have the complaints from job seekers.

There is outrage over being pressured to undergo three to 10 interviews over six months or more. Some are asked to take tests, do projects or sit for invasive psychometric exams. There’s a lack of feedback and long periods of an absence of communication. No appreciation is extended to applicants for their time. Rude and dismissive treatment is commonplace. After all of the meetings, they complain of getting ghosted.

The situation can be improved. It's not too hard to initiate modest improvements.

Tune in for suggestions that corporations can incorporate that would dramatically improve the interviewing experience for people.

With over 9 million jobs available and a war for talent going on, the prevailing narrative is to quit your job and find something better. This concept is very American. We are a unique country composed of self-reliant mavericks who do what we want. We’re not fond of taking orders from and putting up with tyrants and bullies.

If your boss and corporate executives lack empathy, compassion and micromanage your worklife, it may be time to rebel. Let them know your feelings. Tell your supervisors what you want and what you won’t put up with. If they don't listen or care, it's time to move on.

Before you take the “Great Resignation” advice to abruptly resign, please consider the following to make sure it's the right thing for you to quit.

Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, recently told his global workforce of 137,000 employees that they’d have to return to the office beginning early September. It's expected that employees will spend about three days a week at the office and the other two at home or remotely.

In an open letter to Cook, some employees of Apple voiced their concerns about returning to an in-person office setting stating, “We feel like the current policy is not sufficient in addressing many of our needs.”

Despite protests from workers, Apple is remaining resolute in its position.

Tune in to see how the future of work will see friction between companies and their employees.

It's a hot job market; companies need to hire and this is your chance to ask for what you want, desire and, most importantly, deserve. This includes getting compensated for all of the things you do that are not appropriately compensated for.

You need to act now before the window closes. Tune in to learn how.

The pandemic brought us a lot of pain, but it also opened our eyes. We no longer need to be shackled to an office eight to 10 hours a day, five days a week. As workers are regaining power, due to a hot job market, they’re able to demand flexible options. People can now lead their best lives by working the way they want from wherever they desire. Tune in, as I discuss the wanderlust trend of work-from-anywhere digital nomads.

The Future Of Work: How To Succeed In The New Post-Pandemic World— There’s a growing movement and petition circulating to push for a four-day workweek.

Tune in, as I discuss this movement and the benefits of enforcing the four-day workweek.
