The first full workweek of 2026 is complete. Strong performance isn’t about always being “on". It’s about balance. When people have time to recharge, learning sticks, creativity grows, and teams deliver lasting impact.

The big change in 2026? #AI can personalize learning at scale. That matters when employers expect 39% of workers will need #upskilling by 2030. But AI is only half the picture. #HumanSkills, like communication and teamwork, are the secret sauce to winning performance!

Before 2026 hits, set three #Learning objectives: One role skill that makes you more valuable. One #HumanSkill that makes you a better team player. And one challenge that scares you a little. Commit to a plan you can practice every day. Make 2026 your year of learning!
Bright, comic-book–style poster with a blue halftone background. Large white text at the top reads, “MAKE 2026 THE YEAR YOU BECOME A SUPER LEARNER!” Below it, curved black text says, “WHAT ARE YOUR LEARNING OBJECTIVES?” In the center, a superhero in a blue suit with red gloves and cape flies forward with fists raised, emerging from a white cloud. Yellow stars, red-and-yellow comic explosions, and dynamic lines surround the figure.

This December, sort waste wisely:

❄️ Food scraps go in Toronto’s green bin.
❄️ Cardboard, paper wrap & rinsed tableware go in the blue bin.
❄️ Bubble wrap & packing peanuts go in the garbage.
❄️ Shiny/metallic wrap = garbage.
❄️ No black bags for recyclables.
