Today’s #WorkplaceWellnessWednesday post is on #hacking workplace wellness, whether in the office or while working-from-home. With Q3 winding down and seasonal deadlines on the horizon, these 6 tips will help you maintain a cool head while staying on top of timely to-do’s: 1. Get a good night’s rest. Yes, a strong work day starts the night before with sufficient rest. Try to put devices like phones and tablets away after a particular hour, and experiment with sounds (like white noise) to help lull you to sleep. 2. Plan a morning activity. Start your day with a brisk neighborhood walk, a guided meditation podcast, a few yoga poses, or any other activity that will help you get up and get active to wake yourself up. 3. Pack a meal prep. Whether at home or in the office, meal prepping can be a big help to save time and money. Make it a nutritious and balanced lunch. 4. Stay hydrated. Besides tea and coffee, it is important to remember to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Setting reminders like phone alarms every two hours may help give you that necessary nudge. 5. Assess and re-assess tasks. Sure, you outline your priorities at the beginning of each work day, but don’t forget to re-evaluate those priorities throughout the day as new and emerging needs arise. In business management, knowing when and how to pivot can be vital! 6. Practice chair yoga. At #GRF, we have had several chair yoga workshops to get us familiar with this concept. Chair yoga is gentle, supportive, and helps to promote strength, relaxation, flexibility and more. Find a few poses and routines to try out during meal periods and short breaks. Let us know what else you recommend to #hack workplace wellness! #Health #Wellness #EmployeeWellbeing #WorkplaceWellness #WellnessWednesday #ChairYoga #Q3 #WFH #Benefits #EmployeeWellness #HealthAndWellness #PhysicalHealth #MentalHealth #EmotionalHealth #Yoga #WorkLifeBalance

Today’s #ThrowbackThursday circles back to #GRFLA team member Francisco Gomez, whose incredible story about perseverance moved so many of us last summer. In December 2020, Francisco lost his pulse for eight minutes while running in the Griffith Park hills. Despite the tremendous odds against him, the #GRF Business Services Administrator continues to push limits and now challenges his team members in the Century City office to do the same. “I choose to face these marathons as challenges, and I face them head-on,” he says. “Despite what happened to me, I continue to push myself when it comes to my fitness and health, and running is a big part of that.” Read more in our Employee Spotlight here: https://lnkd.in/gjjxxtX7 The “Employee Spotlight” series introduces our firm’s diverse, talented professionals and highlights their notable extracurriculars. We hope their stories provide a more personal perspective of life at Gelfand, Rennert & Feldman. #Throwback #EmployeeStory #EmployeeSpotilight #CenturyCity #Perseverence #Strength #Endurance #WellBeing #Health #Inspiration #Motivation #LosAngeles

Returning to school as a full-time professional can seem daunting, but navigating a healthy balance between work and education in an environment like #GRF is feasible – and can be especially rewarding. Here are five tips and tricks for balancing work, school and life, courtesy of a recent #GRFintern speaker seminar: 1. Create a detailed “master calendar.” Keeping a thorough calendar is crucial for tracking competing obligations like deadlines, meetings and personal appointments. Combine professional and educational milestones in one place to avoid double-booking. 2. Set and maintain realistic boundaries. That can mean disconnecting from work when reading for class or refraining from late-night phone activity after a certain hour. Blurring the lines between school, work and life may leave you feeling burned out, otherwise. 3. Carve out study time and rest periods. Make sure to pre-plan when you’ll be focusing on school work and when you’ll have time to yourself, and try to stick to that schedule. It may be helpful to also designate a bedtime and shutdown ritual. 4. Keep up with mental and physical well-being. Inject periods of self-care and relaxation into your calendar. Schedule gym time and remember to take walks. 5. Utilize resources at work and school. Make time to meet with college advisers to discuss your progress. Our Benefits package also includes tuition assistance, #CPA incentives and perks, and continued education to help make professional growth more attainable.

Last week marked the end of our 12-week Summer 2024 #GRFIntern program! This year, the #GRF team welcomed 21 interns based in Century City, Encino, White Plains, Manhattan, Nashville and Wilmington – our largest cohort, to-date. Interns were spread across our Business Management, Royalty Services and IT functions, but were able to regularly cross-collaborate during speaker seminars/workshops and in-office activities. It has been a pleasure to watch these budding professionals navigate the exciting world of financial management and analysis for the entertainment industry, and especially rewarding for the many managers, supervisors and peers who took part in their training and development. Whether they’re staying on at the Firm or returning to school, we wish everyone all the best in their next professional chapter! #GRFInterns #LosAngeles #CenturyCity #Encino #Nashville #SFV #CSUN #CSULA #CSU #USC #Columbia #CMU #ProfessionalDevelopment #Internship #Interns #MusicRoyalties #EntertainmentBusiness #BusinessManagement #Wilmington #WhitePlains #NYC #Belmont #Vanderbilt #UDel #UCLA #Fullerton #Summer #BackToSchool #Growth #Learning

#GRF would like to congratulate Managing Director Enza Cohn, #CPA, of the #GRFLA Encino office on being named a 2024 Woman of Influence in Accounting by the Los Angeles Business Journal! From the article: “Through hard work and perseverance, [Cohn] earned her reputation as an esteemed and successful business manager for individuals in the entertainment industry and clients in the ultra-high net worth arena. By communicating, managing, and understanding her clientele, Cohn continues to aid them and their families as their personal ‘CFO.’ This includes preparing and analyzing their cash flows and budgets, directing them through tax strategies, and - in partnership with estate attorneys – [working] to create estate plans with the goal of maintaining her clients’ family’s wealth.” Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/gJdSFKUu #LABJ #WomenOfInfluence #Accounting #BusinessManagement #LosAngeles #Encino #CenturyCity #Entertainment #EntertainmentBusiness #EntertainmentIndustry #WomenInBusiness #WomenInAccounting #EntertainmentBusinessManagement #Tax #EstatePlanning #HNW
