Prof Thomas Astell-Burt #EACH24 We say we value nature and we all value experiences in nature, but we tear it down. His vision is to create cities that are in harmony with nature. More green time & less screen time.

What do people with backgrounds in German studies, geography, biostatistics and public health have in common?

Genuine passion for people's well-being and great ideas were the most notable commonalities!

Hoarding talent backfires. Managers who fail to promote people wind up with weaker teams.

Study of 96k job applications: Bosses who advanced their employees attracted more & better internal candidates for open positions.

People gravitate to leaders who invest in their growth.
