Have you noticed that you tend to overthink things, and it disrupts your life – whether it’s worrying, overthinking projects, losing sleep or not being fully present for your family and, most importantly, yourself? People often feel like they have to constantly be thinking and all thoughts are important and valuable and you cannot lose […]

We often observe organizations (or teams) becoming entrenched in everyday problems, seemingly encountering a glass ceiling for development. No matter what efforts we exert, progress remains minimal. We attempt to introduce changes in structure, team dynamics, leadership techniques, implement new technologies, foster innovation, and provide continuous training for leaders and employees. However, these changes often

Feeling guilty about doing nothing is a common struggle, especially for entrepreneurs accustomed to constant hustle. I have realized lately that doing nothing isn’t laziness; it’s self-care and even more – it is a seed for the future trees. Embrace the freedom to just simply be. Remember, productivity isn’t just about doing more; it’s about

This is how Gedi Pรตder formulated bullying in her book “ร•petaja” (“Teacher”). Bullying isn’t just in schools; it also exists in workplaces. Workplace bullying is something we accept far too much. Of course, no one else can make you feel smaller unless you allow it or feel it within yourself. But this already requires quite

What does this phrase mean? Are you not living your life every day and simply a quick tool for completing tasks?

If you feel like everyday life is pressing on you and days seem to blur into one gray mass of completing task after task despite your intentions to take more time for yourself, then ask yourself:

Being result-oriented and with mindset of end-gaining in organizations, we find ourselves caught in a cycle of change that only brings more changes, unfortunately without solving the underlying issues. Tensions accumulate over time and thus releasing them also happens gradually. However, in organizations, there’s often a false hope to resolve quikly the tensions accumulated over

He meant it in the context of personal health, but isn’t the same true for the health of an organization, letโ€™s say the culture of the organization?

Imagine trying to mend an organizational culture, empower an employee, or guide a manager, only to find they’re clinging tightly to the victim state. Sometimes, people are afraid to get out of their victim state because it’s beneficial to them for some reason. So, if you’re going there to help them and make things better, you might just hit yourself against the wall.
