People who answer emails at 11 PM aren't more committed than people who don't - they've lost the boundary between availability and identity, and the late-night reply isn't proof that they care more about the work, it's proof that the work has colonized every hour of their day, and they stopped noticing because the invasion happened so gradually it felt like dedication instead of surrender - Silicon Canals

My co-worker, "Alyssa," joined the office a few months ago. As far as I can tell, she is significantly hard of hearing but doesn't use any hearing aid. I've tried to train myself to speak loudly and clearly with her (I have family who are going deaf, I get it), but she still often misses part of what I say.

Being a leader today requires a new level of performance. One that overrides fatigue, can suppress internal signals, and absorbs constant urgency, all while rapidly context-switching.

That's why I recommend leaders spend time considering how their workspace design affects the noise level for their employees.

2 months ago65% of workers say 'microshifting' could help with stress and burnout. Here's how you and your employer could benefit from this work-scheduling hack
While some workers are being mandated to return to the office, a growing majority of workers now say they want to "microshift" their workday. Unlike hybrid or remote schedules, in which you work remotely some or all of the time, microshifting is about making small adjustments to your start times, breaks and hours rather than adhering to a rigid nine-to-five schedule.
