Do you want to beat the heat this summer? There are a number of ways that you can easily do it. For starters, wear light colored clothes as these reflect light better than darker ones. And choose cotton whenever possible as it easily wicks away moisture from your body. Another tip is to maintain your air conditioning unit by checking and changing the filters when needed. Not only will it cool the room better, it will also help save on electricity cost. For more tips on staying cool during summer, take a look at these slides from Bourne Bathrooms.

Dispatches From The New Economy: The Five Faces Of The On-Demand Economy

Intuit Inc.

From people determined to be their own boss, to those embracing the flexibility to do something they love, to workers finding a replacement for a traditional job – people working in the on-demand economy are just about as diverse as the labor market itself. A new report from Intuit Inc. and Emergent Research shows that there are a broad range of motivations – and differing levels of satisfaction – among five distinct groups of on-demand workers: The Business Builders – primarily driven by the desire to be their own boss. They represent 22 percent of on-demand workers. The Career Freelancers – happily building a career through independent work. They represent 20 percent of on-demand workers. The Side Giggers – looking to find financial stability by supplementing existing income. They represent 26 percent of on-demand workers. The Passionistas – looking for the flexibility to do something they love. They represent 18 percent of on-demand workers. The Substituters – replacing a traditional job that is no longer available. They represent 14 percent of on-demand workers. Methodology A total of 4,622 workers who find work opportunities via the platforms provided by the participating partner companies completed an online survey between September 11 and October 1, 2015. The results were weighted to reflect the proportion of workers in each of the following segments: Drivers/Delivery, Online Talent Marketplaces and Field Service/Onsite Talent. The weights were developed using earlier survey work that sized the on-demand economy. The largest weighted share of on-demand worker respondents from any single company is 16%, with most partner companies providing less than 10% of the respondents.

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldaba

ux singapore

How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves? Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.

The power of creative collaboration

Table19

Here at Table19, we believe that great work is only possible when clients and their agencies work together as a team. This is a presentation written by our Executive Creative Director Graham Wall, who on his first day in this industry heard the senior team he was shadowing say something he couldn’t understand: that the client had bought the wrong idea. This set in motion a desire to understand how and why this had happened, and make sure it never happened again. This presentation details Graham’s learnings and philosophies, and shows how agencies and clients can create better work together.

How to Successfully Run a Remote Team

Weekdone.com

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.
