“I had the pleasure of having Maja as my manager at the Techstars 2020 Accelerator. Maja brought so much positive energy into the office, even on the most stressful of days. She enabled the associates to do their best work, and she was always ready to provide support when needed. Maja's ability to run a smooth accelerator program in the middle of a global pandemic was impressive to say the least. Maja has a unique ability to manage people and work effectively with anyone. She successfully managed multiple projects at the same time, and continued to deliver despite the virtual nature of the program and the difficulties associated with that. I look forward to seeing Maja do great things in the future. ”

Unlimited Leave - Can It Boost Productivity and Cut Costs? It sounds like a Silicon Valley perk. But unlimited paid time off is quietly spreading to smaller businesses too. Why? Advocates say it: 📊 Cuts admin by removing the need to track multiple leave types 💸 Avoids big payouts for unused days when staff depart 🎯 Offsets pressure to raise base salaries The paradox? Employees often take less time off than under “use it or lose it” schemes. The key, say those who’ve implemented it successfully, is structure: – Tie eligibility to tenure or performance – Keep manager approval in place to prevent abuse It’s a perk that works when paired with trust and clarity. And in Thailand, one company is taking it a step further - offering “Tinder Leave”: paid time off to look for love. ✅ Perks can save costs as well as boost culture ✅ Flexibility is only as strong as the rules behind it ✅ Time off is a productivity tool, not a luxury 👇 Would you take more or less time off if your company offered unlimited leave? 🔗 Full Guardian story: https://lnkd.in/gmPbqXzs 🔗 Tinder Leave story in the Straits Times: https://lnkd.in/gzTA2sZA ******* Repost this to help your network & follow me Adam Graham for more content like this.

UK talent & investor visa opportunity! Great to read this article in the FT on teams in gov working to make it easier for exceptional talent to come to the UK. The startup community needs to provide data for how much this can help UK growth! Clearly, it's key in the immigration debate to differentiate between high skilled and unskilled in the numbers. While the French threaten to upset entrepreneurs with talks of taking 2% of their shares per annum and the USA increases the H-1B visa to 100k... a golden opportunity...? UK explores plan to drop visa fees for top global talent - https://on.ft.com/4pzVCI2 via Financial Times
