"Sublimating your desire for activities that don't involve your children does not make you a more impressive parent; it just makes you a more exhausted and resentful one."-Charlie Warzel, Out of Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working from Home
"A lot of us have only the faintest traces of those childhood and early adult activities in our lives - what we might dare call hobbies. They largely exist as conversational markers and rhetorical placeholders of who we once were."-Charlie Warzel, Out of Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working from Home
"Once you've established a baseline, you need to get more granular and detailed in your conception of diversity. Too often executives take the wrong approach here and begin to try to "collect" an employee from every race. Instead, try the following questions: Is everyone in management able-bodied? Do you have a mix of parents and nonparents? Straight parents and LGBTQ+ parents? Is the majority of your workforce from one generation? What percentage graduated from Ivy League schools? From HBCUs? Maybe you've upped the number of women in the C-suite? But are all of those women white?"-Charlie Warzel, Out of Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working from Home
