POSTI IMI

If you thought Justin Bieber's best day ever might include something fancy like heading to the South of France and chilling on a yacht, you just might be wrong.

The 21-year-old singer took some time out of his busy schedule (which, by all accounts, includes him working on new music and shooting the video

Bieber made it clear that this all was the perfect combination for what he declared on social media as "pretty much the best day of my life."

Don't take our word for it. He posted videos of said hangout session to his Instagram

The thought of upheaving a culture you’ve worked tirelessly to perfect might feel a bit unnerving, but it’s a natural step for any growing company. After all, your four-person startup’s culture should look starkly different from that of a 200-person company. Like the entrepreneurial landscape itself, you need to adapt in order to survive -- culture included.

Unfortunately, many entrepreneurs lose sight of this fact. They assume that sponsoring happy hours or furnishing their morning meetings with a spread of fruits and bagels constitutes a healthy culture.

But perks don’t make a culture -- unless, of course, they support it.

Take Digital Telepathy, for example. The website designer provides employees with betterment bonuses. Team members receive $1,500 each year to spend on a project to better themselves in some way. They can take on anything they want; the only caveat is that they must share their experience with the team.

Digital Telepathy understands that culture doesn’t exist in a bubble. It’s a living and breathing thing that needs to evolve, both inside and outside the office. If you don’t attend to it, moods will plummet, employees will disengage and turnover will skyrocket.

If you’ve kept an eye on your company culture, you’ll inevitably start to see signs of a cultural shift. Instead of letting it happen without you, take an active role in the process.

Here’s how to do that:

It has to start with you. If your company is undergoing a growth transition, choose the kind of culture you wish to establish going forward. Have a clear idea in mind, and cement the values most important to you. If you’re not leading by example, it doesn’t matter how many emails you send or how many town halls you hold -- your company will not shift.

Although you hold the power to change your culture, that change won’t materialize unless others support it. That’s why employees should play a role in cultural shifts. Talk to staff about their opinions, and administer a survey or two. If employees take part in the process, they’ll be more likely to adopt the new culture.

But don’t rely on existing staff alone. Tap employees leaving the organization. By conducting thorough exit interviews, you can better understand why people choose to leave. If you see a clear trend, fix the areas where staff members are most dissatisfied.

You don’t have to produce a long, drawn-out statement, but you should document your expectations for the cultural change. Define the change in terms of values, customers, policies and services. Refer back to it regularly.

Make sure the content you produce is helpful for your staff, as well as new hires. Create slides, graphs or presentations that are easy for your team to understand; there’s no point in issuing another 100-page HR manual.

Netflix became something of a celebrity company in the Silicon Valley community when CEO Reed Hastings created his renowned “Netflix Culture” presentation, in which he detailed how he hires, fires and rewards employees. It was written to clarify for employees what’s important for success, what to expect from one other and how the company operates.

From the moment you decide to change your company culture, base all hiring decisions on it. Make sure every employee coming into your organization aligns with and believes in the new culture.

Take a long, hard look at existing staff, and do the same. Regardless of background or contribution, a particular employee may need to go if he no longer fits the culture. One person can disrupt the positive changes you’re making to your company, and stringing him or her along might not be worth it.

Your company culture should reflect the mission and direction of your growing company. If they’re in sync, employees will feel excited to come to work every morning and stay engaged throughout the day. And when you build the framework for a culture everyone can get on board with, no one will want to leave.

Ever since the boom years of DIY in the 1980s, bank holidays have typically been the time when British enthusiasts tackle home improvements. But in recent years cracks have appeared in the market.

Growing employment levels and wage growth have bolstered housebuilding and construction volumes but the home improvements sector — known as repair, maintenance and improvement, or RMI — has failed to Executives point to a structural shift in the market, which was worth £14bn last year. Travis Perkins, the FTSE 100 builders’ merchant, relies on RMI for 80 per cent of its sales. Chief executive John Carter says DIY sales peaked in 2004 and now fewer young consumers have the desire to tackle home improvements, instead choosing to spend their money elsewhere.In March Kingfisher said it would shut 60 of its B&Q stores in the next two years amid falling sales as Britons increasingly turn away from DIY. That came six months after Homebase owner Home Retail announced plans to close a quarter of its stores by 2018 amid competition from supermarkets, large high street chains and online retailers and what it termed “the rise of a new generation of consumers less skilled in DIY”.

“We are vying for minds and wallets against holidays, new cars and three-piece suits, at a time when a steady influx of immigrants from eastern Europe and access to builders online has introduced competition into the market for those reluctant to do DIY jobs,” he says.

That shift has helped to fuel the fortunes of companies such as window and door manufacturers, for which renovations are a more important driver of sales than new-build orders from developers.“The fact that many are reliable, affordably priced and keen to work has proven very attractive to consumers — it has created a ‘Do it for me’ culture that has curtailed the era of ‘Do it yourself’.”

Tyman, a UK manufacturer and distributor of components for doors and windows, reported a sales jump of 20 per cent in 2014. It said the improvement reflected the investments people were making in their properties, even if they were not doing it themselves.

“The UK housing market is weighted towards repair and renovation of older homes and not newer homes. In the wake of 2008, repair sales continued but people held off big-ticket spending which weren’t essential — like a new kitchen or windows. But over the last 12 months there has been a significant upswing from quotes to execution of orders,” says James Brotherton, chief financial officer.

He says the trend is also reflective of growing activity in the housing market, given that people often spruce up their homes before a sale and after a purchase. More new-build properties mean more houses on the market, which in an upturn leads to more transactions.

Marshalls, a building products and paving specialist that generates a third of its sales from home improvements such as new driveways and patios, tells a similar story.

“London showed the first green shoots as people became more comfortable with spending out of their savings, but we are now seeing regional growth across the country,” he says.Martyn Coffey, chief executive, says the group’s domestic sales order book has reached its highest level since 2006. He notes that it was commonplace for people to fund home improvements by releasing equity from their property before 2008. After the financial crisis, volumes plummeted by more than 30 per cent, although they have recovered since 2013.

“Landscapers are picking up new employees, training them as fast as they can to keep up with demand, and we are looking into new installation systems to drive down costs when it comes to external labour. We know that if we can make the entire process lower cost and faster, then people are more likely to spend.”

Last week Britain’s biggest tile specialist Topps Tiles

“People are becoming more adventurous with their tiling projects. It means people are moving in the opposite direction to DIY, creating the need to bring a professional fitter in,” said chief executive Matt Williams.

And despite aiming to take a third of domestic sales across the country by the end of this year, he is setting his sights elsewhere.

“Once we have achieved our goal we could look at the broader commercial tile market,” he added.

A former Hong Kong investigator turned UN whistle-blower says a child sex abuse scandal roiling the global body could be the "tipping point" needed to reverse its "cover-up culture" and lack of accountability.

The UN faces a backlash over claims it tried to hide a report into allegations of sexual abuse by French military personnel in the Central African Republic, involving victims as young as nine.

The report was leaked to the French authorities by Anders Kompass, a director of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights in Geneva, who has since been suspended and is facing dismissal.

Peter Gallo, a former fraud investigator in Hong Kong who joined the UN in March 2011 to work in its internal affairs bureau, says the scandal lays bare the "cover-up culture" and lack of accountability in the UN.

"The [Central African Republic] scandal may well be the tipping point that brings about change," Gallo, 52, told the Sunday Morning Post. "It is gaining traction in a way that I never saw in my four years at the UN.

"All the UN has done since the Kompass case has been to try to lie their way out of it. Nobody has taken any responsibility."

Gallo's contract ended in March and he has launched legal action against his former supervisor, Roberta Baldini. He is seeking damages of US$6.5 million, claiming that he was defamed and falsely accused of crimes after he accused his supervisor of misconduct.

"Retaliation against staff members for reporting misconduct or simply for embarrassing their superiors is commonplace, so any staff member who does report his boss for misconduct is committing career suicide," Gallo said.

The veteran fraud and anti-money-laundering expert says his legal case is an example of "gross mismanagement" and revealed the lack of real protection for whistle-blowers.

Last month the UN said that Kompass' actions were a "serious breach of protocol" and did not constitute whistle-blowing.

Farhan Haq, deputy spokesman for UN chief Ban Ki-moon, said the body would not comment on Gallo's case as it was still under way.

At the centre of Gallo's case is the "performance improvement plan" that he was told to sign a few weeks before his contract was first renewed in 2013. It said he was underperforming in many areas and included a requirement for him to not ask questions in his cases unless they were pre-approved and to never ask questions "just to satisfy his curiosity".

He was also criticised for a lack of professionalism, ethics and integrity.

"They tried to make out that I was the most incompetent investigator in the world, but they couldn't prove that."

When he joined the UN in 2011 to work in the Office of Internal Oversight Services, Gallo understood he would be unpopular.

"I expected the hostility from the rest of the organisation and expected to be unpopular. What I did not expect was that the management … would actively prevent certain cases from being investigated," he said.

"I was put in a position whereby I was either going to be known as an incompetent investigator or a whistle-blower, so I went with option B."

Asked if he regretted taking up the UN post, Gallo said: "Yeah, I've got better things to do at my age with my life, but I can't change history. Would I do it again? No".

Gallo first moved to Hong Kong in 1992 and worked for Kroll Associates, specialising in due diligence before branching out into tackling money laundering. He ran his own risk consultancy for more than a decade in Hong Kong.

As a permanent resident of the city, he is considering all possible work options: "I may be back."

Learning opportunities present themselves to us in everything we do — from grocery shopping to getting take-out.

That’s the premise of an arts and culture project created by Expect More Arizona — a statewide nonprofit education advocacy group — which helps families create memorable and educational experiences at arts and cultural venues.

The arts and culture project is an extension of the organization’s “Today” project, which gives families a new activity to do every day, through prompts on Facebook and its website.

Expect More Arizona has partnered with 24 venues across the state — five of them in Tucson — which have each created a “Today I Will” sheet with site-specific activities for families to do together on their visit.

The sheets are free but regular admission charges apply.

“There are so many opportunities to teach the kids, that we don’t even think about,” said Melissa Lempke, the organization’s vice president of marketing and communications.

Not only does the project promote unique ways to learn, but there’s also a chance to win tickets to a participating venue. Families are encouraged to take a picture while completing the activities and upload it to expectmorearizona.org/activities. Two winners will be chosen randomly each month.

The project will run year-round for a minimum of two years. However, taking advantage of these learning opportunities can be especially useful during summer as a way to stave off summer “brain drain,” Lempke said.

“Things like these fun learning activities, we hope, are great tools to keep the kids learning over the summer,” Lempke said.

The activities help bring more families to venues they might not otherwise visit, said Morgan Wells, curator of education for the Tucson Museum of Art and historic block.

“I think a lot of parents stay away from the museum. It can be intimidating,” Wells said. “Especially if you don’t know about art, how are you supposed to teach your kids about it? But this is a way to discuss art with your child.”

Many of the activities have been created to promote literacy, Lempke said.

For example, one of the Tucson Museum of Art’s activities is to find a work of art in the gallery and discuss what you think was happening before the scene and predict what will happen next.

It’s a way for the family to create a story based on the art, Wells said.

Children’s Museum Tucson is participating in the program, too.

“I feel that it’s a great tool for parents — or any caregiver, actually — to interact with their child or grandchild,” said Daniela Siqueiros, the museum’s marketing director.

“It’s helping the parents interact with our space and really learning about their kids and how much they might know, how they learn and how aware they are of their surroundings.

“It gives them a great prompt and a great tool, making the experience of playing and learning approachable.”

Taking advantage of learning opportunities outside of the classroom “helps youth better understand taught concepts, practice skills and even develop new interests,” said Ashley Pedersen, director of education at Tucson Botanical Gardens.

Participating in the project also encourages venues to update prompts, which gives families new things to do and keeps them coming back.

“You go more often when you see something new,” Siqueiros said. “It helps you think about the venue in a new way.”

Other participating venues include the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum and the University of Arizona Museum of Art.

Each week, Josh Duboff looks at the biggest celebrity news—and amuses himself by imagining how those celebrities might have reacted.

At Cannes, Matthew McConaughey’s film, Sea of Trees, was booed at its screening. Cate Blanchett premieres her film Carol, also starring Rooney Mara.

Matthew runs into Cate backstage at a Cannes press event.

“Cate! Cate, the Great! Cate the Great Interpreter. Blanchett DuBois, the color of white!” He kisses her on both cheeks and on her forehead. “How are you?”

Cate takes a step back and straightens out her dress. “I’m excellent, Matthew. Really no complaints. We’re in Cannes, we’re here for movie premieres, we’re wearing pretty garments.” She smiles and shakes her head. “Not too shabby, is it?”

Matthew puts his fingers on his temples. “We’re in a video game, Cate. Let me tell you. This is a video game. And it looks like sun and water and croissants, but they can shut this thing off whenever they want. They can pull the plug out, and all the colors will disappear.”

Cate looks around. “You know, I think I’ve lost Rooney. We’re supposed to do some video interview together. I should probably go—”

“Rooney Mara, the shadow adventurer, on that boat riding into the dark abyss. You can’t see inside that head, or even get near it; there’s fog everywhere.”

Cate nods nervously. “I suppose that’s true, in a way.” She puts her hand on Matthew’s shoulder. “Listen, I heard about the . . . response to your film. You should know that none of that stuff matters. It’s not even worth a second thought.”

Matthew sighs. “Cate, Cate, Cate. We had gold in our paws—what? just over a year ago—all the shouts and confetti and noise! Volcanoes. But now, it’s a year later, and it’s cold on the mountain. There’s no fire. No lava. We just have our golden memories, and our golden men, on a bookcase, telling us that we’re only getting older. The sun is going back into the garage, and you can’t jump-start that car.”

Cate gives Matthew an air kiss. “Matthew, you’re divine, it was great to catch up, I must get to Rooney!” She picks up her dress and moves past him. Matthew frowns slightly and then, after a few moments, takes off his tuxedo jacket and sits down, cross-legged, on the floor.

The Mad Men series finale airs.

Christina Hendricks walks into a sushi restaurant and spots Vincent Kartheiser. “Vinnie, hey!” she shouts. Christina tells her husband to wait just a second and scurries to Vincent’s table, where he’s sitting by himself, sipping a miso soup. He stands up and gives Christina a hug. “Christina! How are ya, stranger?”

“I’m good, good. Crazy that it’s all over, isn’t it?”

Vincent nods. “All things, man. All things.”

“I watched with my whole family, and they were, like, actually bawling by the end,” she says. “I was just totally serene, though. Maybe because we finished filming so long ago . . .” Christina looks over at her husband, then back to Vincent.

“You know, I didn’t even watch it. We got tickets to this jazz festival, and I didn’t even realize it was the same night until the day of.”

“So that’s why you weren’t responding to any of the group text messages . . . ”

“Oh, no, I lost my phone a few weeks ago.”

Christina laughs. “I wish we had had more scenes together, you know? Joan and Pete didn’t really get much together.”

“Nope.” He raises his soup bowl. “To Joan and Pete.” He smiles. “And to everyone greeting us as Joan and Pete, no matter what else we do for the rest of our careers.”

Christina playfully slaps his shoulder. “Stop! We have many more roles in us. So many Coke ads left to go, if you will.”

Vincent nods, wistfully. “I guess that’s true. That’s nice.” They both grin, in the most melancholy fashion that can still be described as “grinning.” Christina pushes her hair back. “O.K., I should get back to . . . See you . . . . wow, see you sometime, I guess!”

“See you sometime, indeed.”

Paris Hilton and Leonardo DiCaprio bid against each other for the same purse at a charity auction at Cannes. Leo eventually wins it, for a rumored $10,000.

Paris exits the venue to see Leonardo sitting on a bench, smoking an e-cigarette. Paris walks over and sits down next to him. She takes the newsboy cap off Leo’s head and puts it on.

She laughs. “What do you think?”

“You totally pull it off, Paris. Very chic.”

“Do you want to put my butterfly necklace on? A trade?”

“I think I’m O.K. My butterfly-jewelry days are past me, I’m afraid.”

Paris smiles. “That was fun, in there. I really thought I was gonna get that purse!” She looks at her phone. “Oh God, hold on.” She texts for about six full minutes, while Leo puffs on the e-cig. He takes his shoes off and kicks them to the side.

Paris puts her phone down, eventually. “Sorry.”

“I feel like we’re from a different epoch, Paris. Do you feel that way? We represent something that’s . . . vestiges of a time that’s passed. Relics. The two of us in tandem, especially. Paris and Leo. We’re the 2000s!”

“I guess. I don’t know.” She looks at the e-cig. “Can I try that?” He hands it to her.

“You know, I have, like, 5 million Instagram followers,” she says. “You’re filming a million movies. We just spent tens of thousands of dollars at an auction.” She coughs softly. “I guess I’m just trying to say that I think we’re doing just fine.”

Leo looks up at the sky. “We definitely are, Paris. We definitely are.”

Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne re-unite at Cannes.

Kendall and Cara lie by the pool. Cara texts while Kendall flips through a magazine.

“Do you want grapes?” Kendall asks. “I want grapes. Grapes would be so good, wouldn’t they?”

Cara nods, not looking up from her phone. “Totally.”

Kendall rolls up the magazine and starts swatting around her. “Cara, there’s, like, a bug. It’s gross.”

“Do you want to see Justin tonight? I don’t know what to tell him.”

“Whatever.”

“Let’s just, like, hang out.”

“Yeah, agreed. That’d be perfect.”

“I just want to do nothing.”

“Me too.”

“I don’t want to be bothered.”

“Yeah, I don’t want to be bothered, either.”

“I’m just, like, exhausted.”

“Yeah, definitely.”

“Are you going to go in the pool?”

“I don’t know. I want to, but . . . I also don’t, you know?”

After a long pause, Kendall turns to Cara. “Do you ever feel like Kirsten Dunst in that movie? Where she’s a princess?”

“Marie Antoinette? Yeah. Oh my God, all the time. That’s a good call.”

“Yeah.”

“I see the paparazzi lenses across the water. There’s like 30 of them. Look.”

Kendall frowns. “I know.”

This season of Inside Amy Schumer has been one 22-minute piece of perfection after another. Not to hyperbolize, but if you’re not watching Inside Amy Schumer

Some celebrities — like Dennis Quaid and Paul Giamatti — have appeared on the series once, before coming back for more. Others — like Wyatt Cenac or Jeff Goldblum — have dropped by for a memorable sketch, before disappearing from the show forever. More recently, Tina Fey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Patricia Arquette all appeared in the same sketch for four minutes of total bliss and the clip of it nearly broke the Internet! The amount of celebrity appearances has definitely increased, but there have actually been some pretty fantastic guests throughout the show’s history. Remember when Chrissy Teigen played Amy’s unbelievably attractive couples therapist, or when Kathy Najimy played her technologically-challenged psychologist? (If you haven’t noticed, this show does an awful lot of sketches about therapy…)

Taylor Swift was the big winner at this year’s Billboard music awards. Not only did the singer premiere her blockbuster video for Bad Blood – featuring the likes of Cindy Crawford, Kendrick Lamar and Lena Dunham – but the pop star also took home eight prizes including top artist, top female artist, top Billboard 200 Album, top Billboard 200 artist, top Hot 100 artist and top streaming song.

Swift thanked “all the girls I talk to on the Internet and we talk about your feelings and you teach me your teen slang,” during her speech for top female artist, and told her fans that she was “obsessed” with them: “You guys are the reason this year has happened the way that it’s happened,” she said. 

It was also a good year for Iggy Azalea, Pharrell Williams and Sam Smith, who each won three awards, while One Direction, Hozier, Jason Aldean, Enrique Iglesias and John Legend, took home two. Calvin Harris also picked up the award for top dance/electronic artist. The Scottish EDM artist joined Swift, his supposed new girlfriend, at the ceremony.

Smith, who was forced to pull out of the ceremony owing to his vocal haemorrhage

Hosted by Chrissy Teigen and Ludacris, this year’s awards took place at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas.

Sweden’s Måns Zelmerlöw was awarded the top prizein the long-running music competition on Saturday for his pop anthem “Heroes.” Russia’s Polina Gagarina claimed second place with “A Million Voices,” and Italy’s Il Volo followed in third with “Grande Amore.”

“I’m so happy and I want to say thank you for voting for me,” Zelmerlöw told the crowd (via BBC). “I want to say we are all ‘Heroes,’ no matter who we love, who we are or what we believe in – we are all heroes.”

Zelmerlöw was favored to win Eurovision

DETROIT - Hart Plaza in Detroit will be filled with lights, sound and dancing this weekend for the three-day Movement Detroit music festival.

Headliners like Snoop Dogg (under the moniker DJ Snoopadelic) and Skrillex (as past of the duo Dog Blood) are among the over 100 artists scheduled to perform at the electronic festival, which brought 107,000 people to Detroit last year.

The music starts at noon Saturday and plays pretty much through to midnight Monday. There are a few breaks in between, but it's taking six stages to hold all the talent coming out to play this year.

Here's what you need to know:

Who's playing, and when?

The music starts around noon every day, but here are the artists playing in the later time slots each day:

Saturday:

Online, it appears tickets to the event are sold out.

How to get there and where to park.

M-10 will undoubtedly be backed up all the way to I-96, as that's the main route to Hart Plaza where the festival takes place.

Run I-75 through to Gratiot Avenue to avoid the rush to the riverfront. M-10 and I-375 might take you right to the concert, but there won't be much parking available on the riverfront.

Joe Louis Arena and Cobo Hall will have parking available, but your best bets lie further into the Central Business District or Entertainment District less than a mile away.

Greektown, Broadway Street and Grand Circus Park are packed with parking garages and surface lots. Avoid driving on Woodward Avenue, as M-1 Rail construction is clogging up the city at the moment.

The official Movement after part will be held at Leland City Club in Detroit on Monday. Tickets are $15, and it's a 21-and-up event.

Various artists will be playing after party shows all around the city, though.

Clean Bandit have scored a double win at the 60th Ivor Novello Awards, with their chart-topping song Rather Be taking awards for best contemporary song and most performed work.

It was a triumph for the classical/dance crossover band’s chief songwriter, Jack Patterson – who appeared to collect the award – but also for his co-songwriter James Napier, whose growing influence on British pop music was evidenced by his credit on another artist’s nominated song, Sam Smith’s Stay With Me.

“For me this is much more significant than the Brits,” said Patterson, speaking after their victory on Thursday. “It’s a huge honour because it recognises proper stuff – sitting down and thinking about chords and structure and meaning and sentiment and actually crafting music, as opposed to the stuff you have to deal with on a daily basis, such as getting my hair done.”

Napier added: “Someone said when I first started out that I was trying too hard, and that I should just let the music do the talking. I know it’s a cliche, but it’s true – I had to put my head down and concentrate on my songwriting craft.”

The other big winner at the awards, which took place at Grosvenor House inLondon, was Irish singer-songwriter Hozier. His breakthrough track Take Me to Church scooped the prestigious prize for best song musically and lyrically. Accepting the award, Hozier said: “It’s an honour to be in this room, sharing it with so many people who have shaped my life. This time last year, I was completely unknown. A lot of this music was recorded in my attic.”

The Ivor Novellos, which began in 1956, aim to reward excellence in British and Irish songwriting and composing. They have long been respected by songwriters, as the prizes are voted for by fellow songwriters. “This is the one award that really counts, because it comes from people you respect – no offence to all the other awards!” said Ed Sheeran while collecting his award for songwriter of the year.

Sheeran’s prize helped him continue the stellar rise that will see him headline Wembley stadium for three nights in July. It was presented to him by Elton John, who said: “This guy next to me has so much enthusiasm for what he does; he loves to embrace other artists, he has a joie de vivre that is so essential. And if he wants it, he will have a career as long as mine. I hope he doesn’t get into half the trouble I got into.”

The Ivors inspiration award – previously won by Dizzee Rascal, Johnny Marr and Siouxie Sioux – this year went to Manic Street Preachers. “Songwriting is a really magical thing for us, and it’s never failed to get us through a lot of tough times,” said the band’s Nicky Wire, before going on to make quite possibly the only acceptance speech that’s ever included Philip Larkin, Karl Marx, Aneurin Bevan, Public Enemy, Top of the Pops, Joe Calzaghe and Abba.

Black Sabbath were also honoured with a lifetime achievement award. Speaking before the ceremony, Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi said: “I’m still always writing songs. Even when we’re not touring, I will sit in the bedroom and write songs, just for my own pleasure. It’s not something I can switch off, really.”

Other awards included a classical music award for Judith Weir, a special international award for American composer Paul Williams, and an outstanding song collection award for Albert Hammond.
