Hired 6 ways

While the hiring process can be lengthy and effort-intensive, the preparation for a new hire’s arrival can sometimes be surprisingly rushed and half-baked. Even if HR takes care of general onboarding, there are still plenty of to-dos that team leads need to cover to make their new teammate feel welcome and prepared. When the onboarding process is clear, new employees become productive faster, feel secure in their new role, and are more engaged—everybody wins. How to prepare before your new employee’s arrival “You’re hired!” usually kicks off a frenzy of activity between the new employee and HR. As for the team the new hire is joining, it can be tempting to slap together some docs and decks and call it a day, but there’s more coordination that needs to happen to welcome new employees and empower them to succeed. Coordinate with other teams Assuming everybody else knows what to do for your new hire might lead to things falling through the cracks, which is deflating f...

Yes, You Can Catch Insanity

In 1994, Susan Swedo, a researcher at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in Bethesda, Maryland, had a hunch that there might be an immunological explanation for obsessive-compulsive disorder. As a model, she was studying a phenomenon known as Sydenham’s chorea, or St. Vitus’ dance. First described centuries ago, Sydenham’s chorea is a rare manifestation of rheumatic fever that affects children almost exclusively. It is a disconcerting, unmistakable illness to witness. Children are overcome by rapid, uncontrollable jerking of the hands, feet, and face, contorting their bodies in a distorted, disturbing “dance.” Sydenham’s chorea is caused by molecular mimicry gone wrong. Molecular mimicry generally works like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Streptococcus bacilli have thrived through the eons by cloaking themselves in proteins that resemble their host’s own cells. Disguised, it evades the immune system just long enough to establish an infection. But sometimes this tactic ...

Relationship Let's try Think again

It is probably the hardest resolution I have made for myself, but I believe I need to spend time to form validated opinions around these three topics and ensure my actions are fostering a world I want to live in. At the bare minimum, I want to consider the consequences of my current behaviour. To kickstart the process I took the time to define how I see the state of technology, inequality and norms at the beginning of 2018. When I read this post in one year, I hope to be embarrassed of my lack of knowledge, but let’s get started. writer by  Kristoffer Tjalve Relationship Let's try Think again My relationship with technology With technology everywhere we are increasingly questioning where we are left off: The largest technology companies possess a power leaving most nation states powerless and desperately competing for attention and investments. Today they are not only market leaders, they are market creators. The success of the selected few technology companies is dr...
