AD&D INSURANCE? No Thank You
Dear Dave, My wife and I both work, and we have been looking at level term life insurance policies. A friend says it would be a good idea for us to have accidental death and dismemberment insurance, too. Do you agree? Aiden Dear Aiden, You both definitely need good level term life insurance policies. Stick with 15- to 20-year level term life insurance, and make sure that coverage is separate from anything provided by your employer.
Each one of you needs 10 to 12 times your yearly income wrapped up in a policy. If you make $50,000 a year, that means you need a policy with $500,000 to $600,000 worth of coverage. The idea of life insurance is to take the place of income. If you or your wife died, the other could invest the insurance money and replace that lost income. You do not—I repeat, not—need accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance. These policies are cheap, but they’re pretty much worthless be-
cause of the long list of conditions they won’t pay out for. Most pay out only a small portion in cases of dismemberment, and many won’t pay a death benefit if you die from a medical procedure, health-related issue or drug overdose. The devil’s in the details, and AD&D policies are chock-full of them. If you have long-term disability insurance in place, which is what I recommend, you can be covered for a substantial part of income lost due to an injury or disability. One study says 25% of today’s 20-year-olds will become disabled by age 67. In my mind, those

FAMILY FEATURES
hef Nate Appleman knows how important it is to serve healthy meals to your family – ones they actually want to eat. Before having his first child, he transformed his eating and exercise habits and lost 85 pounds to get on a healthier path. Now, he’s cooking meals for his family, including 14-year-old Oliver who was diagnosed with Kawasaki Disease as a toddler – an inflammation of the blood vessels that can cause damage to coronary arteries – as a healthy lifestyle is important to help manage the disease. Since Oliver’s diagnosis, Appleman made it his personal mission to create awareness of Kawasaki Disease and for the critical need for plasma donations that many people with the disease rely on for treatment, which is why he partnered with Abbott to bring attention to the need for plasma donations. Plasma is a powerful part of your blood that supports essential bodily functions. It’s a lifeline for thousands of people who are immune-compromised and live with a variety of chronic and complex diseases. In fact, more than 125,000 Americans rely on medication made from plasma every day, according to the Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association (PPTA). The COVID-19 pandemic led to a serious shortage of plasma donors – average donations per center in the United States were down approximately 11% during the first few months of 2021 compared to the previous year, further deepening the nearly 20% decline in donations in 2020 compared to 2019, according to the PPTA. Donating plasma is a safe and relatively easy process. Since plasma is replaced in the body within about 24 hours, it can be donated up to twice per week. With a donation that typically takes between 1-3 hours, you can make a lasting impact by providing lifesaving medicine for patients like Oliver. It’s a good idea to fuel up with iron-rich foods before and after donating, so Appleman created these fresh, nutritious recipes he loves to serve his family: Marinated Skirt Steak, Lemon Chicken with Roasted Red Onions and Potatoes, and Cheesy Frittata with Veggies. Learn where you can donate at bethe1donor.abbott.

The hybrid office may present some challenges, but the right technology can help make it work. Reimagine Collaborative Spaces Before 2020, many organizations shifted their office layout from more traditional meeting rooms to smaller huddle and breakout spaces, citing employees’ desires for more casual gathering areas. Now, as returning employees resume face-to-face interaction—while ensuring appropriate distancing—businesses are likely to revert to more spacious meeting environments. And since not all meeting participants will be physically at the table, strong and seamless connectivity takes greater importance. Unified communication and collaboration (UC&C) platforms have upheld remote work during the last year-plus, and employees’ reliance on them will continue in the hybrid environment. For businesses, maximizing UC&C functionality is a must. Barco’s ClickShare Conference, for example, allows users to immediately, seamlessly and wirelessly connect laptops with all UC&C (including Zoom, Teams and WebEx), effortlessly toggle between platforms and activate all meeting room components. Hosts can simply walk in, boot up and connect with meeting participants—it’s the difference between activating meetings within seven seconds instead of seven minutes. Take Stock of Your “Who” and “Where” One of the few certainties around hybrid work is that nothing is truly certain, and the conditions governing a return to work are dynamic. In response to these evolving considerations, businesses’ hybrid work plans should be flexible enough to ensure that employees have the right tools and guidelines to remain nimble, collaborative and productive wherever and however they choose to work. The pandemic shift has shown that activities once deemed essential to hold in person can proceed from afar. Customer relations functions have gone

Three Ways Technology Can Make The Hybrid Environment “Work” For Your Organization /// You may well remember the frustrations that defined the “old days” of work—the hustle to get to your desk on time, the inevitable dread of sitting in traffic or navigating public transportation to get home, the feeling of guilt asking if you could work from home to attend a child’s school event or meet a repairperson.
hybrid, and sales presentations and demonstrations now take place across video-enabled platforms. As health, budget and travel limitations take precedent, such non-traditional engagement may become a permanent reality. As a result, businesses will need to adapt and meet their employees where they are. This can include everything from enhancing AV capabilities in customer conference centers to providing those leading such calls from home with stateof-the-art cameras, microphones and backdrops to ensure optimal quality. Level the Playing Field As my team and I at Barco discussed our hybrid plans, one concern emerged more frequently than others: ensuring that those who chose to work remotely did not feel excluded or removed from critical conversations. While there’s no way to replicate the personal connection of the office, technology can bridge gaps and keep remote workers feeling confident, comfortable and capable of contributing. Videoconferencing has been—and will remain—the heart of hybrid collaboration. To empower more effective and productive video-driven hybrid meetings, businesses also can create more on-site space for virtual conferencing. Most people remember the exclusivity video-enabled conference rooms maintained in the “old days,” and the battles with colleagues to reserve them (not to mention the technical challenges of connecting to and working within them if you were lucky enough to land one). Now, as workers have become familiar with holding meetings on laptops, every on-site space can become a video room available and accessible to anyone. IT and business leaders also should consider how technology can replicate the feel of the on-site meeting for virtual attendees. Before the pandemic, remote meeting participants often struggled to view featured content and whiteboard notes, or have their voice heard at all. Now, with collaborative technology, they can see, hear and participate as if they were at the table. Barco’s ClickShare Conference, for instance, offers virtual blackboarding, annotating and polling to extend knowledge share. The transition to hybrid work marks an excellent occasion for businesses to consider and potentially implement long overdue changes. As Barco’s research also found, technology that accommodates more flexible work is now an expectation among employees, and a potential differentiator in retaining and attracting top talent. Hybrid work will look different for every industry, company and team. However, those who embrace the hybrid workplace, and make the operational and technological improvements to support their workers, stand the best chance to thrive in the new-look working world. • Mr. Taylor is the VP, Enterprise Sales and Commercial Operations, Americas, for Barco.

Three Ways Technology Can Make The Hybrid Environment “Work” For Your Organization by George Taylor (NAPS)—You may well remember the frustrations that defined the “old days” of work—the hustle to get to your desk on time, the inevitable dread of sitting in traffic or navigating public transportation to get home, the feeling of guilt asking if you could work from home to attend a child’s school event or meet a repairperson. For those haunted by these flashbacks, the good news is that the 9-to-5, full week in office is now a bygone era for many. The switch to fully remote work in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that workers can succeed beyond office walls. Much of this stemmed from their willingness to leverage videoconferencing and other non-traditional tools to remain productive while enjoying their newfound professional flexibility. It’s become increasingly clear that a hybrid work model, in which workers alternate between the office and remote locations, is probably here to stay. While some employees have mastered the virtual world, others long for the in-person engagement and familiarity they’ve lost in recent months. In fact, Barco, a global developer and provider of visualization and collaboration technologies, found that 90 percent of employees prefer hybrid work in place of a fully remote or on-site schedule. And even among the 56 percent who are eager to return to the office, the feeling is that the environment likely will be much different from the one they left in March 2020. While businesses understand the growing popularity of hybrid work, effectively transitioning to the new model can feel daunting. With more employees returning to the office—potentially on a limited basis as part of the evolving hybrid work model—the mentality and habits they’ve acquired during the last year-plus will only elevate expectations. Even on campus, workers still wish to maintain a similar level of control over their workday, including a seamless, personalized and video-driven meeting experience. Likewise, remote employees demand unwavering and equal access to meetings and materials, and don’t want to fall behind or feel “less than” while away from the physical room. Faced with dueling demands, organizational and IT leaders are under pressure to deliver guidelines and tools that give all employees the flexibility and freedom they desire without compromising company culture, efficacy or overall success. So how can businesses have it all? How can they accommodate the differing needs of office and remote employees while also future-proofing their operations and fueling growth? For business and IT decision-makers, now is the time to begin envisioning the future of their meetings. The transition to hybrid likely will require a reevaluation of meeting technologies and spaces to uphold their teams’ productivity and connectivity from anywhere.
