How do we ensure that our kids develop healthy relationships with technology? 👪 Parents tend to fixate on the latest technology craze. So much so that we often forget about older technologies, which can be just as much of a problem! There’s little justification for allowing kids to have a television, laptop, or any other potentially distracting external trigger in their rooms, especially overnight when they can interrupt their sleep. These screens should be kept in communal areas. What are some other ways you've helped your child manage digital distraction? #Indistractable #Parenting #Family #Distraction #Children …see more

We have been following Leslie Voorhees Means since the beginning of 2017, but didn't have a fund in place yet to invest in their seed round.

P-TECH offers students a way to develop the transferable workplace skills and enterprise mindsets that industry and employers are looking for.

Many of us believe that the remote work is a trend that’s here to stay even beyond the #shelterinplace . Of course the assumption is not that all jobs will go remote but rather there will be a big shift towards more flexible work-from-home trend and remote opportunities. What are your thoughts for the future of work? Remote job postings on LinkedIn increased by 13% in March alone and in the metropolitan areas that got hit hard by COVID-19 - San Francisco, New York and Seattle - remote job searches jumped 45%. #remotework #workfromhome #newtrends #newnormal #remotejobs #futureofwork #futureofbusiness …see more

The departure of Jony Ive is definitely a huge miss for Apple; however, on the positive side, it seems that Apple could benefit from some diversity and changes in its executive team. Having new talents with fresh perspectives, innovative ideas, and diverse backgrounds joining the company's executive team could be a positive thing for Apple in its next phases. #jonyive #executive #appleexecutives #newopportunities #newera Apple …see more

Reducing patient quality of care: Why are we going back in time? Many of us don't have the time (or inclination) to follow every maneuver occurring regarding changes to the ACA. This article talks about a really important aspect of the ACA which is linking physician and hospital payment to quality measures--meaning payment models which rewards better care and outcomes for us, the patients...Rather than linking payment to doctors for simply doing things--regardless of quality or outcomes for us, the patient. As someone who specializes in organization safety and quality of care--and as a patient--these roll-backs concern me....as they should you as well. Selected Excerpt: “Clearly a great big foot has been put on the brake,” said Donald Crane, the chief executive of CAPG, a group of doctors and hospital administrators that, unlike many in the profession, has pushed to tie physician pay to quality measures rather than the old model of fee for service. …see more
