Founding a tech startup isn't an endeavour reserved for the “young”. While there might be famed stories of young Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg all beginning businesses at an early age, there are plenty of examples where founders turned their hand to beginning a tech start-up at a later stage in their career too.

Forget about the cliché of the swaggering leader who can do no wrong. We all have strengths and weaknesses, however committed we are to our purpose and driving our organisation forward to achieve our goals. We are, after all, human. Plus, if the disruptive ambition is substantial, we’d be a fool to try to go it alone. This means we need resources. Resources are the fuel that helps our fire burn.

In September last year, in the UK, sickness had hit the highest levels they have been for 10 years with mental health issues being within the top four causes of sick leave – and arguably contributing to the other top three. However, when we think of mental ill health or stress at work, ‘burnout’ naturally comes to mind.

If you look at the world you see that one out of every seven persons has a disability. Some disabilities tend to be more visible than others in the form of allergies, mental health problems, walking disabilities, and other conditions. Others are more invisible to the common public, for example someone facing anxiety in ambient noise.

Anxiety can feel like a storm cloud swirling around you, clouding your mind with what ifs, self-doubt or worst-case scenarios and making your body feel jittery, tense or unsettled. The level of distraction can be so high that it is really hard to concentrate or bring your best self forward. Clearly this is not helpful before an important meeting.

Throughout the ages, we’ve had seismic shifts in the nature of work and the skills needed. It’s happened with civilisation, industrialisation, the Web, globalisation, automation - the list goes on. The term ‘future of work’ therefore, is not a specific issue that we need to engage and be done with; the nature of work is constantly evolving and we would be wise to always have the future of work in mind so we can adapt.

It’s an unfortunate truth that war breeds innovation. WWII was the source of many technologies and scientific advances that form part of our everyday lives - from microwave ovens, computers and quantum physics to blood transfusions, skin grafts and penicillin - it would be difficult to imagine a world without such technology.

Through the lens of a hiring perspective, the UK’s rapidly growing technology industry can be seen as a victim of its own success. Growth at pace has led to a shortage of skilled tech talent here, especially in areas such as software development, data science, and cybersecurity, according to new salary data.

‘Tis the season… that time of year for reflection about the health of our careers. It can be a difficult task, an imponderable. Is my career where I want it to be? A little like that other seasonal tradition of debating the criteria for the best Christmas movies of all time.
