Dozens of labor organizations, including the Confederation of Indonesian Trade Unions (KSPI) and Indonesian Workers Union Association (Aspek), are backing the petition, which was registered with the Constitutional Court on Monday.

Are You Really Listening Or Just Waiting To Talk? There’s A Difference
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin When we think of characteristics of a strong leader, “great listener” typically isn’t one of the first skills to come to mind, but maybe it should be. Particularly in this Covid-19 era as leaders are managing stressed, anxious employees often hesitant at best about the return to work, qualities like empathy and emotional intelligence will be in high demand – possibly separating leaders who succeed from those who fail. Arguably, one of the most necessary ingredients for this style of leadership is the ability to listen actively and authentically. No, not just vanilla, run of the mill listening that virtually anyone can do, but another level of listening. Let’s face it – when someone else is talking, very often we’re not really listening to their point or concern. Instead, too often we quickly decide that we know their point and immediately focus our mental energy into formulating our response. When we think about it, this … [Read more...] about Are You Really Listening Or Just Waiting To Talk? There’s A Difference

Massive Internet Outage Caused By Amazon Cloud Glitch
A glitch at Amazon is causing numerous websites and apps that rely on the company's Amazon Web Services offering (AWS) to fail or deliver poor performance, especially for users on the East Coast of the United States. AWS is one of the world's largest providers of cloud services, and its currently hiccupping Amazon Simple Storage Service (which launched about a decade ago and is commonly referred to as Amazon S3) is today used by numerous online businesses as part of their critical infrastructure. The outage is, therefore, affecting many companies, including Netflix, Time, Pinterest, Business Insider, and Airbnb. Furthermore, because content from many providers that use AWS is loaded onto pages outside of their own sites, the outage is also affecting sites that do not directly use AWS themselves. Amazon has reported the issue on its AWS dashboard, stating, "We continue to experience high error rates with S3 in US-EAST-1, which is impacting various AWS services. We are working … [Read more...] about Massive Internet Outage Caused By Amazon Cloud Glitch
Recruiting The Best – Transparency Trumps Theatrics
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Across all levels and industries, recruiting the best talent remains a challenge in the current market. Tempting new employees while retaining your existing staff and keeping staffing levels high is ever-challenging. At the start of the pandemic, the quick reduction in workforce demand laid bare the fundamentals of the company and employee relationship. The subsequent quick market flip for talent put the power of choice very much at the heart of the employee. With the dynamic of the working environment changing and prospective hires being able to choose when and how they work, companies suddenly had to review every aspect of their business to compete - from mentorship and facetime policies to compensation and benefits - all these softer aspects of work have been turned on their head. Many companies are now trying different tactics to attract new talent with limited success. The most obvious of these are to increase starting … [Read more...] about Recruiting The Best – Transparency Trumps Theatrics
