Funny for some people, but I think returning to office, even in limited capacity, is important. At least 2-3 days may be. It's only in Tech/IT companies that we have this luxury but to some extent it make sense - best approach is to give people options to choose. The so called Hybrid Working.

But manufacturing and all other similar industries do not have much choice in the long run.

Hello. I recently accepted a position as Assistant Nurse Manager at a busy Cancer Center in Brooklyn. I have leadership roles such as charge nurse over the 8 years I’ve been an RN so Ive never had an official management role. I have my BSN and OCN. The AVP agreed to match my current salary which is 6 figures because I refused to accept the salary he was offering for $5K less. Did I accept an unfair offer or should I expect that because of my lack of experience in management? Thanks

Hi Fishes,

I come across many job descriptions for roles in corporate communications preferring experience in digital marketing. As a marcom person, I feel we should know how to use the digital platforms effectively rather than literally sit and work on the campaign tools. Please let me know if I am mislead.

Dear Bowl Members,

I beleive all the members of this group are in the communication and branding industry - a field where proactive communication and community participation ideally should be the highest but it's not so as of now. Instead, consulting, tech, developer bowls are more active than this bowl.

I request all of you to be proactive and spend 15 minutes a day or every two days to answer the queries posted by members. We can make a difference to someone's life/career with a response.

Hello Fishes, I have started my role of an Internal communications executive after 12 years of sabbatical, due to marital and parenting period. Looking to enhance my skills for growth and better efficiency. Could anyone please suggest what kind of skill enhancement course would be beneficial for me?
Also, what is the current salary slab for this role, because I joined in a very low package, being eager to get back to the role. So grabbed whatever opportunity I got without doing much research.
