There’s something invigorating about tackling your to-dos among walls of ferns or billowing bougainvilleas.
Exuding the warmth and old-world charm of a coffeehouse from Y2K, Coffee Connection is a quaint nonprofit cafe with brick archways, stained glass windows and bulb lights strung across a plant-friendly courtyard. On one side, there’s a nature wall draped with ferns, moss and a cascading waterfall; on the other is a gorgeous tree with a high spreading crown and deciduous branches that make for maximum summertime shade and the occasional leaf flurry.
As a place to work, Coffee Connection is a great find — not only because of its idyllic courtyard or reasonably priced espresso but because there is a real sense of. Within minutes of sitting down, I witnessed a real-life meet-cute and later overheard neighbors recognize they were sitting a few tables from each other. Also, did I mention there is free parking ? Add me to the roster of regulars, folks. I think I’m in love.

How to Protect Your Team From a Toxic Work CultureWhy is it that some leaders succeed in building cohesive, healthy corporate cultures that outperform their peers while others build low-performing companies marred by toxic behaviors like back-stabbing, credit-taking, and burnout? The authors spent three years scouring a combined 40 years of data from their work as coaches at hundreds of companies and found a consistent connection between the quality of business and cultural outcomes and the quality of the conversations successful managers regularly had with their teams. They made their teams feel seen, heard, appreciated, and supported, and as a consequence, their teams delivered better results. While these conversations are tough to have and often take a great deal of courage to conduct, but for any new or aspiring leader, they are essential to initiate during your one-on-ones. Every manager should keep an eye on what they need from people to stay on track with their larger team goals, but they should also stop and ask what their teams need to deliver on those goals. They should also learn about their team’s fears and insecurities and be courageous enough to talk about their own. Most people want to win, to learn, to feel of service, etc. But taken to an extreme, each of these core motivators can be derailing. Managers can motivate people when they tap into what employees really want, but they have to make sure employees don’t get too much of a good thing. If managers exclusively focus on what needs to get done, they’ll make the mistake of asking people to perform tasks beyond their competency.

How to Debate Ideas Productively at WorkResearch tells us that cognitive diversity makes a group smarter. Two heads are, indeed, better than one, and many heads are even better, especially when everyone is willing to share their expertise and opinions. While diverse thinking and disagreements can be uncomfortable, they are more likely to lead partners or a team to make progress, innovate and come up with breakthrough solutions than consensus and “nice” conversations in which people hold back what they think. But how do you have a productive debate? By reminding your group to follow four general rules: Remember we’re all on the same team. Keep it about facts, logic, and the topic at hand. Don’t make it personal. Be intellectually humble.
