The world continues to change, becoming more diverse, inclusive, and aware of social justice issues. But that doesn’t mean the struggle is over. While Technalink encourages all women to chase their dreams of becoming successful women in business, that doesn’t mean that it’s now a fair and level playing field with no more societal or institutional biases to overcome. Here are a few things women in business can do to increase their odds of success.

Life is beautiful but is not without its challenges, stresses, and fears. To help with these hardships, we should have a spiritual toolbox we can use to encourage healthy actions and practices we can use to overcome obstacles and challenges and stay on a more positive trajectory.

Indoor plants don’t just look good – they actually make us feel good! At Technalink we always encourage bringing a little life into any workspace, and one easy way to do this is with a gorgeous office plant. Studies have looked into just why plants make us feel so good, and they’ve yielded a few interesting results. In research conducted by NASA, it was found that plants can remove up to 87% of toxins in the air in a 24-hour period as they absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Another study found that indoor plants can boost productivity by around 15%, and another still found that being in the presence of plants can reduce stress and boost mood at the same time.

Personal development is important for anyone striving to succeed in the business world but is especially important for women in the business world.

You can wake up motivated and inspired, feel good all throughout the day, and then you start to feel those yawns coming on as soon as you come back from taking a lunch break. There’s a name for this feeling – the mid-afternoon slump – and it’s something that can happen to any professional, in any industry, and on any given day. It’s tough to stay motivated or keep your creativity going when you’re feeling sluggish, so we have some techniques that work for us at Technalink to keep those unwanted feelings at bay. A few tips for overcoming the mid-afternoon slump are:

As a soulful leader, you lead with passion. You are also very aware of the organization’s structure in which you work. If you are unclear of your goals or you have lost your way and direction, you may begin to face uncertainty about your values and beliefs.

There are a lot of benefits that come along with working in-office. There’s the desire to be together, to build real connections, and to collaborate in a way that promotes motivation and inspiration. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few things that today’s professionals miss about working remotely. Soulful leadership is all about making these real connections and allowing professionals to thrive and blossom into what they’re really meant to be. Combining the benefits of working in-office, with the benefits teams miss about working from home, can create the sort of environment that helps teams to really perform at their best.

If you have a negative response to the difficult emotions in your life, meditation may prove to be a valuable tool. Meditation is a way to open your mind and see and feel things more objectively. It allows you to recognize emotions in a healthier way.
