麻豆约拍

President Trump's team of advisors includes his son-in-law Jared Kushner. That rankles with some, but should we really be surprised when managers and leaders appoint people they know and trust? We hear from students in Genoa, Italy, who complain they can't get a job without the right contacts. Also, the 麻豆约拍's Maddy Savage reports from running clubs in Sweden and Spain, which she says have helped her develop good contacts for work, while Nick Chater, professor of behavioural science at Warwick Business School, tells us when networking becomes something more sinister. And Lucy Kellaway of the Financial Times on why companies who fixate on their employees' happiness end up making their workforce more miserable.
