Social media has, for most of the first world, become an integral part of our lives. Over three billion people now spend an average of two hours per day on social media, looking at photos, liking posts, and creating their own content.

Spirituality may not be a standard part of business, but it’s still an essential one. At Technalink, we believe a holistic approach is a healthy one. While there’s a time and a place for everything, ignoring something entirely, such as spirituality, is not healthy.

Over the last few years, one of the ideas gaining more public notice and marketing reinforcement is the idea of a business that practices ethics. Of course, for some, such as Technalink, the idea of running a business ethically is a foregone conclusion, but for others, it is a valuable marketing point with little actual substance.

Communication is a touchstone of humanity and one of the critical tools to our success as a species. Without the ability to pass on information, we would constantly have to relearn fundamental ideas like plumbing or financial accounting. However, Technalink firmly believes that when it comes to conscious leadership, it’s not just important; it’s crucial to maintain good lines of communication. Here’s why.

Over the last century, great strides have been made for women in both society and the workplace. From finally earning the right to vote to enter the workforce as the necessity of war required more talent regardless of gender, women have staked a claim in the world. Technalink celebrates and applauds the strides women have made for women entrepreneurs who have taken the always risky step of going into business for themselves.

We all have a lot to do every day, so increasing our productivity seems to be at the top of everyone’s mind. We have all tips for multi-tasking, prioritizing, and time management that can help us be more productive. However, what will make you the most productive is your mindset. If you have a positive mindset, you’ll be in awe of how much you can get done. Unfortunately though, with a negative mindset, every task will seem like an exhausting challenge. Luckily, if you act with intention, you can change your mindset and be more productive.

Good leadership is like catching a bird. You want to hold the bird gently because if you hold it too tightly, you’ll crush its wings. If held correctly, when you let go of the bird, it will fly. If you hold onto control of your company too tightly, you’ll crush your employees’ spirits. Micromanaging, taking everything on yourself, and inflexibility can all tighten your grip on the company. This creates a pressure that makes it hard for your staff to thrive. Spiritual leaders know that the best way to lead is to sometimes let go and let your employees take flight.

One of the less savory aspects of any workplace is office politics. It’s an unpleasant yet often unavoidable consequence of different people with different temperaments and working styles put together in the same location. Technalink, like other businesses, has had its share of politics that needed resolution through spiritual management.
