Last week, the Blinkist team had an incredible experience at the App Growth Summit® 100 in Berlin! 🤩 Our talented colleagues Heiko Mandler and Nora Voß took the stage to share their insights with the app growth community. Heiko, our Native Ads Marketing Manager, joined the panel “Re-evaluating Traditional Mobile Marketing,” diving into how our industry is evolving. Meanwhile, Nora, our Head of Creative, brought fresh perspectives to the panel “Creative Edge: Winning Ad Concepts, Real Examples & the Rise of AI,” exploring what makes standout creatives and how AI is shaping our approach.

The counterintuitive truth about leadership? Happiness drives success, not the other way around. Most leaders think: work harder → achieve more → feel happier. But research shows happier leaders and teams consistently outperform stressed-out ones. Martin Seligman's PERMA framework gives leaders four controllable levers: 🎯 Engagement: Create flow states where time flies and productivity soars 🤝 Relationships: Build trust-rich connections that fuel innovation 🎭 Meaning: Help teams reframe their work's purpose 🏆 Accomplishment: Set meaningful goals with clear deadlines (Note: Positive emotions, the fifth element, emerge naturally when these four are in place.) One key insight: "The formula is simple. Choose a goal that matters, give it a clear deadline, and throw your energy behind it." Simple? Yes. Easy? That's where the leadership challenge lies. In today's retention crisis, leaders who master this aren't just building happier teams—they're building more successful ones. What's one way you're cultivating happiness (and success) in your leadership approach?

💡 Big ideas need a clear mind. But let’s be real—stress, burnout, and endless to-do lists can cloud even the sharpest thinkers. This Mental Health Awareness Month, let’s rethink how we approach mental health in the fast-paced world of professionals and entrepreneurs. What’s one small habit that keeps you grounded and thriving? 🤔👇

Pressure doesn’t have to break you – it can shape you. 💪 In 2009, Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger faced an unthinkable challenge when a bird strike disabled both engines of US Airways Flight 1549. With 155 lives on the line, he stayed calm, shut out distractions, and focused on the one thing that mattered – landing safely. His ability to perform under pressure saved every passenger on board. Sully’s story is a powerful reminder that pressure isn’t something to fear – it’s something to harness. The best performers don’t avoid stress; they use it to sharpen their focus and elevate their performance. How do you handle pressure? Do you see it as an obstacle or an opportunity to rise to the occasion? What strategies help you stay calm and deliver your best under pressure?

What if managers stopped controlling and started coaching? Traditional management often relies on control, micromanagement, and the outdated carrot-and-stick approach. But research shows that organizations thrive when leaders focus on trust, curiosity, and unlocking human potential. In Manager as Coach, you’ll discover how shifting from “command and control” to coaching can transform not just workplace performance, but how people show up every day—engaged, inspired, and ready to grow. It’s not about having all the answers—it’s about creating the space for others to find their own. Check out this Blink to explore how coaching can turn everyday conversations into opportunities for exceptional results.
