Here is your monthly summary of relevant news items since the last issue of INK, delivered on the 2nd Thursday of each month. The full edition of Labor Relations INK will arrive on the 4th Thursday of the month.
Welcome to INK! This email is formatted to be phone-friendly (limited use of images).
Before we get to the links, a quick reminder about our upcoming webinar:
You can be an approachable person and a good leader and still have employees who would rather be lost in the woods at night than have to spend 10 minutes alone with you.
In this webinar we will discuss:
What a power-distance gap looks like and simple signals you can use to make sure you notice them;
3 different places where these gaps most commonly appear—once you know them, you know where to “tune” your radar; and
Ready-to-use tools you can implement to recognize—and then shrink – any gaps you notice.
