All Present – but Correct? A new White Paper on Presenteeism

Companies sink or swim based on their leaders, and good leadership in a company can be felt throughout the entire organisation. With the cost of losing an employee often being in excess of the annual salary of that worker, losing employees is a cost that organisations can scarcely afford.

A 4-Day Working Week? – A new White Paper

In 1930, John Maynard Keynes wrote an essay titled “Economic Possibilities for our Grandchildren”. In this work, Keynes forecasted that in one hundred years hence, we would be working a 15-hour week.
