Employees are your most valuable resource. Yet many companies ignore and treat their employees poorly. Our system has fallen into a self-reinforcing command loop construct as follows: Increase shareholder value at all costs without regard for the human factor.

According to research conducted by Gallup, 75% of workers who voluntarily left their jobs did so because of their bosses and not the position itself. When employees feel disconnected, undervalued, and unappreciated, it doesn’t take long for them to jump ship and look for another job that will recognize their contributions.

Cities are widely regarded as largely emergent entities that evolve of their own volition, and at their own pace, but that doesn’t stop us trying to direct the path of change. New research from the University of Chicago highlights how not only do cities evolve at a gradual pace, but they also contain a number of paradoxes. For instance, cities provide the engine for growth as well as the environment for poverty and inequality to persist.
