Keeping Motivation When Leaving a Job
When you are about to leave a job, it is very hard to stay motivated. This is especially true if you hate your job or your workplace, but even if you like both and are just moving on for one reason or another, it is hard to keep as focused and professional as you would [...]
Everyme – a Social Media Revolution?

An Introvert’s Success in Business
Back in January, when I started working for Katoka, I became very excited when, while researching possible blog topics, I encountered Susan Cain’s book Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking.
