Read moreIt’s a world that’s low on touch and big on physical distance. It’s a world full of information– some accurate, much false or skewed.

Boardroom on […]
Read moreAs we head into a new year, the Lemonade Hub team has set itself a collective intention for 2019 – embracing a sense of curiosity.

Read moreThe advent of global digitisation means we often don’t work in the same office space, building or even city as some of our closest colleagues any more. Instead, our relationship with them is driven by communication platforms such as Skype, Teamviewer or even project management dashboards like Asana. Software like AnyDesk enable us to access […]
Read moreIn this fascinating article, American college student Timothy Doner explains why (and how) he set about learning 20 different tongues over the course of seven years. Doner is widely referred to in the media as “the world’s youngest hyperpolyglot” – a speaker of many languages. Written in 2015, when the author was just twenty, Doner […]
Read moreDo correct spelling and grammar (still) matter? Is it bad to mix your metaphors like an old dog learning new tricks while trying to reinvent the wheel to show you weren’t born yesterday?
