Any custom clothier recommendations in SD? Haven’t worn a suit since 2019 and would like to get a new one. I moved here from another city and would like to find someone local. Any recommendations? Also thinking about using Indochino, but their reviews or so hit / miss, it makes me nervous. Anyone have any good results to share from the SD showroom? Thanks

How do people balance living for today and being responsible enough to prepare for the future? I’m 40 and have been really concerned that I’m not living life enough. Just doing the things that make you happy whether it be experiences or material things. My biggest fear is retiring early or whenever and being too old to enjoy it or having less time to enjoy it. Just seems like so many people are getting sick or even worst dying much sooner than expected.

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.

Every time I have been discouraged in my career, it’s been by a fellow woman. A professor told me that I wasn’t “strong enough” to be in my career path, multiple female managers have bullied me, and when seeking a sponsor for career growth, my women leaders were the voices telling me I wasn’t ready or was too different. However I can think of plenty of men that have endorsed me. Is this a common experience among female professionals/leaders on their way up or was my experience anomalous?

I have a brand new person on my team- she is totally new to the field, has recently returned to the workforce (solo mom of 3 teens), is very smart. I knew when I hired her that I’d have to lean in to get her to where she needed to be. She has a ton of potential but lacks experience in a professional setting. I need to help her level up her written communication skills. Any suggestions on books, resources, strategies? She is learning by doing and takes feedback but I want more supports for her.

When does the “oh she’s strong she can handle it” go too far? I’ve been noticing peers delivering things that are complete crap and our lead calmly/nicely suggests changes, no timeline to turn back around. ME?? I have been & would be directly and harshly told what all is wrong and to figure it out ASAP. I know im a tough cookie and can handle it but damn…it’s frustrating to see and know if that were me the reaction would be much different. I’m not being dramatic…other people see it too.

Negotiation advice - I’m interviewing for a marketing position internally (no direct reports). I’m currently a sales applications manager (10 direct reports).

I am interviewing for a Manager of Operations role for a marketing company in the pharmaceutical industry. The company size is about 160 people and they were recently acquired by a larger company. I have about 3 years of operations management experience. I am wondering what a good salary range would be for a position like this? It’s a bit out of my usual sector (I work in the health sector- predominantly hospitals) and I don’t have a point of reference for salary range. Thank you!!

Hello, I'm new here, I want to see opinions. Several days ago I was contacted by a hospital recruiter here in FL. The position is patient financial rep. When I am in the interview, the salary part arrives. She asked me how much i earned at my current job and I innocently told her. I made a serious mistake, she only offered me 75 cents more than i made an hour at my current job which is temporary. My interview with the managers is this Wed. Do you think I should negotiate?

I’ll be returning to work following maternity leave and have proposed a hybrid schedule of 3 in-person and 2 remote days each week with flexibility to increase my in-person days as needed. The response from my supervisor was that we’ll need to ‘manage any remote work to maximize on site time’. Any suggestions on how to approach this with him?
