Happy First Day of Fall! Did you know – the word “equinox” was formed by two Latin words: “Equi” is the Latin prefix for “equal” and “nox” is the Latin word for “night.” The equal refers to the fact that the amount of daylight and darkness on this day are nearly equal.

Happy Friday Newsletter Friends! Did you know the reason why we organize our lives around a 7-day week is, quite literally, above our heads?

Now that that fun fact is out of the way, we’ll let you continue to the week’s best HR, leadership and policy management articles. Enjoy and have a great weekend!

That all said, we’re going on break. We’ll be back with your regularly scheduled programming after the Labor Day weekend. Until then!

Article of the Week: This past week’s coverage of the Google “manifesto” situation was exasperating.

So this week’s highlighted article (look for the ✦ below) is about confirmation bias. Enjoy!

Feliz Friday Fine Friends! Another week gone to the ether. We spent ours working on Blissbook’s not-so-top-secret new handbook editor, which we’ll continue in the weeks to come. A lot left to do but we’re making great progress!

Without you, we’d be talking to ourselves and even though that’s not a bad thing, it’s just not the purpose of writing a newsletter.

Happy happy Friday! How about that healthcare thing, huh? Sorry, just seems like everyone stateside is talking about that today and we didn’t want to be left out. Anyway… as the day slowly turns into your weekend, why don’t you check out the best HR, leadership and policy management articles that we gathered. Have the best Saturday ever!
