How important is it to ‘drink the koolaid’ at work? Today Em Vernem and Soph Hirst explain why this argument is flawed, and what you do need to do to get ahead.
Plus we deep dive into career development plans and will teach you how to be the architect, not the passenger, of your own career.
And finally we asked you on our Biz instagram about the most unhinged thing a boss has said to you and we are APPALLED. You won’t believe some of the answers we share.
