Hi there,

Autumn seems to be in full swing and Summer feels far far away. The good news though; less sunny distraction is more time for reading, researching and developing.

Here's another issue jam-packed with must reads on how to be more human at work.
An interesting article by Headspace on taking better breaks, a plead for a tech-free start of the day, inspiring insights on how to increase the representation of women in your team and... an awesome overview of recruitment resources.

Stay weird, warm and dry,

W hy slow mornings may be the secret of tech-life balance

A slow tech-free morning routine as an antidote for the attention crisis we're all suffering from. Stretching instead of scrolling. Being bored instead of overwhelmed. Sounds pretty good...
