The Cult Of The CEO Is Finished
Andy Jassy, Amazon's CEO, recently made a decision to Mandate working In-Office 5 Days a week. Why? Per statements, "When we look back over the last five years, we continue to believe that the advantages of being together in the office are significant... I’ve previously explained these benefits, but in summary, we’ve observed that it’s easier for our teammates to learn, model, practice, and strengthen our culture; collaborating, brainstorming, and inventing are simpler and more effective; teaching and learning from one another are more seamless; and, teams tend to be better connected to one another."

The Power of Your Clothes: Confidence Made from Dopamine Dressing
In our era of digitalisation, where every technology shark tries to reduce our attention span and stimulate our dopamine rushes to increase the engagement levels in their content.

Can Work Be Enjoyable? Gen Z Shows Us How
Can Work Be Enjoyable? Gen Z Shows Us How Every generation that has evolved with the wheels of time has honed its own set of ideals and mindset when it comes to work, home and society.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Many may question the logic of reviewing a film that has transcended "entertainment" due to its age, now standing as an antique document—a historical relic. However, as the world drowns in blood and World War III seems all but imminent, it is important to revisit a document as old and arcane as The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. As the epigraph in the 1991 film JFK stated, "What is past is prologue."

Easy Rider . Top Story - September 2024.
Two bikers transport cocaine across the American Southwest while being violently verbally and physically assaulted by small-town squares and murderous hill jacks in this quintessential "cultural touchstone" for the Hippie Generation. Directed by Dennis Hopper, it stars Hopper, Peter Fonda, and a young and handsome Jack Nicholson. Hopper plays "Billy"; Fonda is "Wyatt" or "Captain America" (he has a jacket with an American flag patch on the back that, during that era, would have been considered offensive). Nicholson is a drunken ACLU lawyer in a small-town jail. As they roar down the hot highway, headed toward New Orleans and the promise of a paradisiacal bacchanal called "Mardi Gras," we get an expansive view of the environment through which they drive their souped-up hogs. It's an amazing American landscape, as perfect as a Western landscape portrait, wherein scrubby arroyo is the unsmiling subject, its flat and desolate face punctured by huge grasping fingers of sacred stone thrusting upward to the blue murder sky. (Quoth Harrelson in Natural Born Killers, "Well, now that is poetry.")
