If there’s one thing all parents can agree on, it’s that kids aren’t cheap. One study puts the average cost of raising a child at $21,000 a year, and that price tag often begins with daycare. America has a well-known child care crisis: Daycare openings can be hard to find and, when you do land a spot, it often costs more than college tuition. Childcare has become so unaffordable that it’s forced some low- and middle-income mothers out of work.

How a leader responds to feedback or challenges is one of these moments. Feedback is a powerful signal of trust from the team member, and what a leader signals back can amplify psychological safety, both for the individual delivering the feedback and team members who witness the moment.

As more companies have started posting job listings with pay ranges—in part due to state laws mandating some measure of pay transparency—many job seekers are now armed with more information when they enter into salary negotiations. But the salary information in job listings can also prove misleading, especially when employers provide broad pay ranges that span over $50,000 (or even up to $100,000 ), since prospective hires may assume they will slot into the top half of a salary band.

We sometimes look at motivation backwards. We assume there must be an outcome or reward in order to get ourselves or others motivated to act. This is not what science shows us. One of the key experiments demonstrating the natural motivation of primates to solve problems was conducted by Harry F. Harlow in 1949. In his experiment, Harlow presented eight rhesus monkeys with a mechanical problem-solving task involving pulling out a vertical pin, undoing a hook, and unhinging a cover.
