We have a silly question for you. 🤭 Does your organization strive to promote individual contributors into micromanagement positions? We only ask because if you don't teach them management skills that include understanding their team's communication styles, how can you expect them to lead anything other than a dysfunctional team? 🤨 So, if you plan on ever promoting someone, just make sure you give them the tools to learn how to be an effective leader first. Oh! And check out our favorite tool for them: https://bit.ly/3L09PL7

SHRM's recent removal of "Equity" from DEI has sparked controversy. At PI, we're troubled by this choice: equity is critical for true inclusion. Here’s why it’s important: ⚖️ It ensures fair opportunity access. 🚫 It addresses systemic barriers. 🔄 Removing it signals a step backward. At PI, our commitment to comprehensive DEI practices remains unwavering by continuing to: ✅ Embed DEI into our entire org. ✅ Foster a culture equitable for all. ✅ Regularly improve our DEI efforts. ✅ Ensure leadership advocacy. Remember: It is impossible for diversity and inclusion to truly succeed without equity. It's essential for creating environments where all employees can thrive. Read the full blog from Emily W., PI's People Operations Manager, on why equity is a non-negotiable for DEI initiatives, and why PI is choosing to lead by example: https://bit.ly/3W9xez3

We're done promoting work-life balance... Just kidding! But would you believe us if we told you only 10% of our Successful Leader Report respondents said promoting work-life balance is key to successful leadership? 🙃 We didn't want to believe it either. The issue is when leaders don't prioritize balance, it has a ripple effect: 1. Managers hesitate to take time off. 2. Employees feel reluctant to use PTO. 3. The entire organization risks burnout. So, if you're a people leader: 1. Take time off - lead by example. 2. Encourage your team to use time off. 3. Foster a culture that values well-being. Ready to dive deeper?
