But there’s still a lingering mindset that some contributions matter more than others, depending on employment status. This blog challenges that thinking. Because in a fast-changing world, value isn’t defined by employment status — it’s defined by impact. Whether you’re here for a project or the long haul, your work helps shape the organisation’s story. It’s time to drop the “us vs them” mentality and embrace a more inclusive way of working — where everyone belongs.

AI has a place, but so does the right dose of human touch…now that’s the real magic!
This Week in Talent - In this week’s contribution, I’d like to share with you the vulnerable version of Gary.

Most importantly, I would want you to know that it’s OK to be selfish by mastering self-care before you provide care for others.
