Super interesting innovation for jet-setters! It sounds a bit invasive but jet lags sure are painful.
The initial focus is on reducing jet lag. But in the future, researchers hope this technology could replace certain shots and pills. Someone with diabetes, for instance, could replace insulin shots with a device that makes insulin as the body needs it

Couldn't agree more that we all need to be constantly updating our skills in this fast-changing era.
Hospitality companies may be scrambling to hire low-skill workers now, but the post-COVID economy will be different. Business owners need new places, and workers should get some new skills: https://t.co/Lg5NyHgUME

Super interesting insights from @Accenture_US, @WeAreCisco and @WeAreFarmers leaders. Supporting working parents (and that is, both moms & dads) = DE&I strategy. @GPTW_US @mavenclinic
Chris Klunk of @Accenture_US on addressing working parents’ needs: One size doesn’t fit all, and the situation is very fluid. That’s why checking in often and listening to our people has been so important, particularly over the last year. #WorkingParents @mavenclinic

Appreciate our @Accenture_US North America CEO @JimmyEtheredge standing up as an ally. The @nytimes article is painful but important to read. My hope is for each of us to love ourselves and our neighbors, not inflict our own pain or spread fear and blame.
@Accenture has an unwavering commitment to equality and justice for all, and zero tolerance for racism, bigotry, and hate of any kind. It’s on all of us to stand up for what we know is the right thing to do. #StopAsianHate

Smart move @Walgreens on making #RozBrewer CEO. More glass shattering will make leadership qualifiers like “only Black” or “only female” a thing of the past. Congrats Roz! I’m cheering with your fans here in #ATL, at @SpelmanCollege and across the world!
