The mentees emphasize paying forward the guidance they received from mentors who invested in their careers.
Some think working remotely is a terrible setting that takes control away and let's employees stay at home and be useless. Others find that remote work increases overall productivity and lowers the need to micromanage.
And both sides might be correct as remote work, like all other structures, work really well for some and make others crazy.
The only thing that we can say for certain is that telecommuting is increasingly popular and there are problems you need to face to make it work.

10 Insightful Quotes On Designing A Better Customer ExperienceYuan Wang
In an ever-changing landscape of one digital disruption after another, companies and organisations are looking for new ways to understand their target markets and engage them better. Increasingly they invest in user experience (UX) and customer experience design (CX) capabilities by working with a specialist UX agency or developing their own UX lab. Some UX practitioners are touting leaner and faster ways of developing customer-centric products and services, via methodologies such as guerilla research, rapid prototyping and Agile UX. Others seek innovation and fulfilment by spending more time in research, being more inclusive, and designing for social goods.
Experience is more than just an interface. It is a relationship, as well as a series of touch points between your brand and your customer. Here are our top 10 highlights and takeaways from the recent UX Australia conference to help you transform your customer experience design.

Women in Tech: How to Build A Human CompanyLuminary Labs
We often think about design in terms of product or service strategy, but what about the design of companies? In the words of Phin Barnes of First Round Capital: “Entrepreneurs are the designers of companies. Great startup CEOs recognize very early that their job is not to build a product, but to build a company — defined by mission, values, and culture.”
Recently, organizations large and small have radically rethought company design by embracing employee-favorable policies such as establishing livable wages, developing creative equity plans, offering paid parental leave policies, and even pulling out of an entire state in protest of discrimination. In addition to sending a strong signal that people come first, these organizations are also making an economic argument to investors that employee-friendly policies pay dividends in reduced turnover and improved business outcome.
In this talk, Sara Holoubek, CEO of Luminary Labs, shares the forces behind this sea change as well as practical examples from companies featured in The Human Company Playbook, including Plated, Etsy, Pinterest, and General Assembly.

Help Young Talent Develop a Professional MindsetDaniel Goleman
There is a chasm between what business leaders expect from recent graduates, and what these new hires offer. In a Hay Group study of 450 business leaders and 450 recent graduates based in India, the US, and China… a massive 76% of business leaders reported that entry-level workers and recent grads are not ready for their jobs.
In most cases, these hires are intelligent, ambitious, and technically savvy. They have proven their ability to accomplish the work. They’re committed and passionate about rising through the ranks. So what are these new professionals missing?
They’re lacking soft skills.

Oprah Winfrey: A Leader in Media, Philanthropy, and Empowerment | CIO Women M...CIOWomenMagazine
This person is none other than Oprah Winfrey, a highly influential figure whose impact extends beyond television. This article will delve into the remarkable life and lasting legacy of Oprah. Her story serves as a reminder of the importance of perseverance, compassion, and firm determination.
2. When it comes to launching a great career,
even the most successful stars,
TV personalities, and journalists had to
start somewhere.
3. Here's what some of the world's most
creative professionals learned from their
mentors along the way.
4. Jessica Alba
Actress and co-founder,
The Honest Company
"Mentorship is valuable because
there's always an opportunity to
learn and grow. I appreciate
mentors who have a great
balance of experience and
guts… you need a bit of both to
truly stand out.
For me, professional
development is about building
on practical feedback and
applying it in real-world
situations. Since that's what I've
learned the most from, that's
what I try to relay to anyone who
asks me for advice.”
5. “Mentoring is about paying it
forward. I will forever owe a debt of
gratitude to Shelly Schwab (then
Station Manager for WAGA-TV in
Atlanta), who gave me an on-air
reporting job when I was just 19
and still in college.
He took a chance on me, and I have
always made it MY mission to make
sure that he and every other
employer since never regretted
giving me a shot. I try to repay HIS
kindness to me by encouraging the
young people who work with me to
push their limits.”
Deborah Norville
Inside Edition Host
6. Ginger Zee
Chief Meteorologist for ABC News
“James Spann has been one of my main mentors through my
career… He taught me how to be great on television, and
how to be a great scientist all while balancing a family. Few
are able to achieve this in this business, and he has taught
myself and many others over the years.”
7. Gio Benitez
ABC News Correspondent
“…I unapologetically have a TEAM of mentors who I refer to as my
personal Board of Governors… They come from all walks of life and…
most of them are women in leadership roles…They are all selfless when it
comes to giving me guidance [and] don’t ask for anything in return. That is
the true mark of a mentor, and why I am so grateful to my
personal Board of Governors.”
8. "Mentors are invaluable in
guiding us through blind
spots and navigating
metaphorical shark-infested
waters. Suze has already
traversed so many of the
paths I’ve yet to walk as a
businesswoman and hearing
from her experience has
saved me invaluable time,
money, and resources."

“When I became Amanda's
‘Big Sister’ through Big Brothers
Big Sisters, she was 6 years old
and I was in my 20s just starting
out. I had no idea at the time
how much our relationship
would come to mean to me.
I think I've gotten just as much
out of being her mentor as she
has received from me. It's a
relationship I treasure. She's now
married, has a beautiful little girl
and is working toward a degree.
I could not be more proud.”
10. Lauren Bush Lauren
CEO and Co-Founder, FEED
“I have been blessed to have a handful of mentors over the last 9 years of
starting and growing FEED… It is important as a leader to be the first to
admit what you don't know. Seek out mentors in those areas as well as
mentors who inspire and motivate you in areas where you already excel.
To know someone who you respect has your best interest in mind and will
give you candid, albeit sometimes tough, advice is an invaluable gift.”
11. Tamron Hall
TODAY Show Host
“I've said many times: I
learned more from mentors
than I did in some of my
toughest college classes.”
12. Dylan Dreyer
NBC Weekend Today
Meteorologist
“I never knew I needed one so I
never searched one out, but
when you find a mentor it will
change your life…. Find someone
you want to be like. You won't
become them exactly, but it will
help you take the actions
necessary to get where you want
in your particular life's path.
Be a sponge and soak up any
ounce of advice that person is
willing to provide… little bits
here and there that will help you
through the hurdles.”

“What is a mentor? It's just
another label. As Donna
Karan aptly states in the
foreword of my book
LEAVE YOUR MARK,
‘Mentors aren’t there to
flatter you; they’re there to
help you.’ So stop looking
for ‘the one’ because you
won’t find one — you’ll find
many.”

“Whenever anyone used to ask me
who my mentor was, I’d feel a
wave of insecurity start to come
over me. I was reluctant to answer
with the truth, which is that I never
had a mentor.
... It turns out that I made a wrong
assumption. Most have not had
one wise, older person who has
shepherded them through their

myself, and realized the same
thing many people realize about
their parents once they hit
adulthood: Parents are people too.
So are mentors. They (we) are
often struggling with many of the

more care, not turning to the same
mentor excessively, being
understanding of the demands of
their time and the limitations of
their availability.”

people, what he said, in those
beautiful complicated sentences
he formed within his head, and
in doing so I became more of the
person I wanted to be. Here the
universe had allowed me to
meet someone I so greatly
admired and learned from — and
because I was so thankful, I tried
my best to never take from him
but to allow his nature, his
information to sink in me.”
