Upgrading Skills
📖 Strategic Writing for UX by Torrey Podmajersky (2019). Our UX Writer, Irfandy Aditya Darmawan, has had this book as his ‘guide book’ for at least the last 6 months. It’s been helpful for him to write better digital content with better context. Find out more about the book here.
💻 LinkedIn Learning. For our Project Management Officer (PMO), Eveline Purnomo, this platform is handy for her quest in diving deeper into Data Science. Many other topics can be found on LinkedIn Learning, including courses on popular software apps like Adobe and Google Apps. Check it out yourself here.
Rebuilding Habits
📱 Everyday Habit Tracker. This app has been a favorite for our Software Trainer & Expert, Annisa Nadhila. It’s a great tool to track consistency in achieving goals and automate reminders for daily tasks. For those who are looking to build new habits, or rebuild old ones, you can find more info on the app here.
📖 Better Than Before by Gretchen Rubin (2015). Still from Annisa, this book has shifted her view on personal growth: from being result-oriented to habit-oriented. When you focus on creating habits, it will start a domino’s effect for your other activities. Learn more about the book and where to get it here.
Managing Finances
📱 Money Lover: Expense Tracker. To upgrade his money management, Yonathan Setiawan, one of our Product Owners, keeps himself accountable with this budget-planning app. The app is also linked to various payment services to help you pay your bills conveniently. Find more info and reviews here.
🎙 Table Talk Podcast. An avid listener of podcasts full of life lessons, Yonathan regularly keeps up with Malaysian internet personalities The Ming Thing on their YouTube Channel as well as their weekly podcast. Listen to their latest episode on “Actionable Steps to Save Money” here.
