Research shows that forming connections with your coworkers is good for your career and your overall happiness. 

It's a fact that as you get older, it becomes harder to make friends. It's a natural progression, whether you work in an office or a remote area. As you get older and leave school, you often have more demands for your time and fewer opportunities to get to know those around you.

"Maintaining friendships takes effort, but it's well worth it, " says CEO andFast Company contributor Corey Weiner. "Studies show that a friend can make you a better collaborator (合作者), a more creative and productive worker and generally happier with your job. "

After all, most of you spend a huge number of your waking hours at work. Of course, it's more fun to have someone to collaborate with and occasionally sympathize with. But how do you go about making genuine connections with coworkers or other like-minded individuals in your industry?

It might sound overly simplistic, but a big part of building friendships is just putting yourself out there. "If you're not used to having a lot of friends any more, you may actually need to remind yourself to engage, " writes Professor Art Markman. "Set time on your calendar for a phone call or make plans to get a cup of coffee. "

"Don't wait for someone else to make the first move, " says Keith Rollag, author ofWhat to Do When You're New. "If things go well during an initial coffee or activity, actively follow up to build on that connection. "

You're not going to immediately bond with all of your coworkers or every person you meet at a networking happy hour. But making continual attempts to find connections with your non-annoying colleagues will eventually pay off. Last but not least, don't call them work husband or work wife in the beginning.

The beauty industry produces many units of one-time use containers every year. More and more consumers are asking how they can keep themselves clean and beautiful without trashing the planet. 

It's a question Women of the Future winner, Natassia Nicolao, considered during her years working in product development for beauty and wellness companies. Raised by a strong and supportive mother, Natassia used her skills and passion to make a difference. In 2021, she created her waterless beauty brand.

She said, "Water is involved in every stage of a product life cycle. Everything we use, buy, sell and make has a huge water footprint. On top of that, the beauty industry adds water as the main ingredients in its products, despite it having no direct benefit to our skin. "

Having lived through water restrictions in drought-ridden Australia, Natassia felt it necessary to stop the overuse of water in the beauty industry. Natassia has always loved beauty. Her company tries to be sustainable in every step of the way, but at its core, it is about removing water from our beauty routines. 

"It's really rooted in water conservation first, and then managing your water footprint, your carbon footprint and your waste footprint, " Natassia said. "We create waterless beauty products to help conserve water. " The glass bottles and jars of her products can be recycled. The oils and wipes are formulated without any water, requiring no water to use. The company also has a piece of game-changing beauty technology: face-wipes and masks that completely dissolve in water.

"The company is still in its beginning, " Natassia said. With the prize money from Women of the Future, she plans to purchase a machine to simplify the creation of the wipes and masks. The publicity, meanwhile, will help her spread the message central to the company's existence that beauty must do better. Natassia believes that, with a little courage and innovation, it can do.

Students' feedback

Tony: The Finance class was great. We explored Wall Street, visited Federal Hall and the Museum of American Finance, and learned how to trade stocks. The instructor made the course interesting and entertaining. 

Ava: The Integrated Marketing class was very informative. The instructor was a real professional. Visits to digital agencies and marketing firms gave me an insider's view of what it's like to work in the field.

To be honest, I use the Internet every single day. One advantage is  there is so much diverse information available. It can always help me better understand complicated issues by (find) alternative opinions on the subject. However, not all the information can be trusted. Sometimes, I will be trapped a situation where it can be difficult to figure out what to acknowledge and what to dismiss. It is really (challenge). So we can not just rely  it too much. It is necessary to find other alternatives.

The past few decades (witness) great changes in the advertising industry. (original), with the purpose of giving information about finding certain products to people, it only consisted some basic information, such as the exact spot of the target product.  time went by, it became (increasing) competitive so that pictures or words would be included in advertisements to compete for the attention of the public. To stand out in a world of competitive advertising, modern advertisers often must combine the highest standard of design creative ways to make people believe that they must have the product.
