At what point did you resign to the fact that you’d have a boss who was in middle school when you were a few years into your career.

It does take getting used to. Luckily, my kids are in their teens, so I’ve kept up with the latest cultural references. I try to check myself if I want to reference a song or actor from, say, the 1990s. (I told an Account kid once that I was a big fan of Elvis Costello and he had to look him up on Spotify.)

Welcome to the working week, indeed

I’m only really aware of it when it’s a bad boss or a bad co-worker. I work with a creative team that ranges in ages from Gen Z to Gen X. I’m Gen Jones, and we all mesh well. Outside of creative it’s a different story.

I called it Junior High not Middle School (X-ennial Xer here)

I’m 43. I called it junior high I guess, too. But my kids school district calls it middle school so it’s changed for me.

You CAN be that leader that people want to work with. 1st, self assessment is required. Be honest: As a leader,have you engaged in/accepted Attribution Bias with a dash of gender &/or race bias? (See the pic) This is something we all need to be aware of as we lead our teams, provide performance feedback, & model the behaviors we'd like to see more of on our teams. Be on the lookout for Attribution Bias in yourself & on your team. It's a hindrance to creating a high-performing, inclusive culture.

I’m new and super behind on all of this stuff but trying to learn. I’d like to invest in an index fund and have heard there are some that, while they require an initial investment of a couple thousand, only require a $50 per month deposit thereafter. Anyone know which brokerage accounts allow for this? Any other recommendations/tips/things to consider? TIA!
