Why We Should All Be Working Less
"People who work in offices and have what we think of as a 'career' are particularly vulnerable to this alignment of self with work, this idea that the amount that I work is also a way of gauging how good I am, my value as a person." — Anne Helen Petersen
Watch her full conversation with Charlie Warzel and Rishad Tobaccowala about why we should all be working less: https://unfinished.com/news/remote-work-can-revolutionize-your-sense-of-self/
Do executives know the status of their workers’ financial health and security?
That's the driving question behind the new Worker Financial Wellness Initiative, led by Just Capital - one of the organizations in our partner @imperative21 's network - and @paypal. The initiative was formed to make workers’ financial security and health a C-suite and investor priority, and companies that have joined are committed to achieving that goal through assessment, engagement, and action. The coalition includes @chipotle , @chobani, @prudential , @verizon , and other leading companies, representing over 260,000 American workers.

It’s time to REFRAME the issues that have been used to divide us, and start the conversations that can restore our faith in each other, renew our hope, and reweave the social fabric of this country that has been torn apart. We have to try something new! ✊🏼✊🏾
Unfinished is proud to partner with @amplifierart on its REFRAME campaign, which seeks to get us out of our bubbles, and fuel collaboration and conversation over division and isolation.
This new AR-activated portrait series highlights the work of 12 leaders across issue areas working to find common ground 🔸
It will reach millions of people across the U.S., including in rural communities, through K-12 teaching tools, billboards, full-page ads, and partnerships with faith-based communities. And you’ll get to experience it at #UnfinishedLive in September (register at the link in our bio). Check out @amplifierart to learn more 👆🏼

We are thrilled to announce that Angela Glover Blackwell, Founder in Residence of @policylink — a leading national research and action institute dedicated to advancing economic and social equity — will serve as the inaugural Chairperson of the Unfinished Network.
Her wisdom and experience — as exemplified here in this clip from #UnflinishedLive — will help us break down silos, convene unique cross-industry leaders to solve some of today’s most pressing challenges, and ensure that equity and inclusion are at the heart of our collective work to strengthen civic life in the digital age.
[caption for video: If we get the equity agenda right, we get everything right. If we get the racial equity agenda right, we actually have an economy that we can count on into the future. If we get the racial equity agenda right, we actually begin to save the Earth and the environment. If we get the racial equity agenda right, we get the angst of the baby boomers who are wanting to retire and they can't see their future. The median age for people who are white in America is 42. The median age for people who are Latinx, which is the fastest growing group among people of color, is 28. The future is dependent on people who are building families, building community, solving problems, and bringing creativity. What that does for the baby boomers, what that does for the economy, what that does for our communities benefits everybody.]
