A thought-provoking piece was published on today's The Huffington Post that talks about what we don't talk about when it comes to jobs. That's essentially the title.
Mother Jones writer Andy Kroll did the piece about the relationship between race, history and the unemployment gap. In other words, the generations-long gap between unemployment rates for black and white Americans. The black rate is almost always twice as high as the white unemployment rate. Read it here.
The article reminded me of the fact that, despite the myriad ways we communicate today, we still don't always communicate effectively - or often enough - about some of the most important matters.
Communication exercise for the remainder of the week: Spend twice as much time talking about your real feelings, and genuine facts about an important issue, as you usually do. This will be harder than it seems.
