Mental Health

The pandemic (and everything that comes with it) is certainly taking a toll on people’s mental health. This new global survey is looking at what different countries are worried about the most.

Gender

Gendered language can stop women from applying to jobs or progress in their careers. Interesting article about the latest research and what companies can do to be more gender-inclusive.

Belonging
