Have you ever worked under someone you just couldnt wait to get away frommaybe to the point where youd daydream about finding a new job (or hoping theyd leave instead)? Thats what we call an Extinguisher. These leaders sap energy from their teams and throw up roadblocks that stand in the way of success. On the flip side, Generators are those leaders who inspire and empower people to reach their full potentialand theyre the ones everyone wants to work for.Most of us want to steer clear of Extinguishers (and make sure we never become one ourselves). The trouble is, its not always obvious when youre dealing with oneat least not until youre already burned out. Thats why we conducted two major studies to pinpoint exactly how Extinguishers differ from Generators.Our research revealed four early warning signs that can help you spot an Extinguisher before its too late.Extinguishers hide their flaws and strugglesExtinguishers wear a mask when they come to work hiding their true selves. They often cover up their mistakes and flaws to be perceived as the perfect leader. Unfortunately, this creates distance between them and their employees. Can you really be open about your struggles if your leader seems perfect and untouchable? It can feel too vulnerable to share imperfections with someone who is perfect. In this situation, its hard to get the support you need because you wont feel comfortable asking for it.Even well-meaning leaders can fall into this Extinguisher trap. Leaders want to be seen as competent and deserving of their role. So, they may feel extra pressure to keep up a facade. However, employees can sense leaders inauthenticity, decreasing trust and healthy communication on the team.If you have never seen or heard about your leader struggling with something, if all you hear about is how perfect they are, or you feel like they are being fake, watch out. You may be working for an Extinguisher.Extinguishers dont care about your personal lifeAdding to the distance between them and their employees, Extinguishers do not want to hear about employees personal lives. They dont care about whats going on with you outside of work and see conversations about your partner, pets, or other important aspects of your life as irrelevant. Extinguishers also fail to share anything about themselves with their employees. This is because Extinguishers believe that you shouldnt bring your personal life to work and view these two spheres as separate.Why is this a problem? If a leader doesnt know you, how can they know how to support you? Extinguishers dont understand you as a whole person. They are focusing solely on your work. But, what happens if something awful occurs in your personal life that has clear implications for your work? What if you need extra time or some flexibility to manage life stressors? Extinguishers dont want to hear it and, thus, wont give you the support that you need.If you feel like your leader knows nothing about who you are as a person, you are likely working for an Extinguisher.Extinguishers never disconnect from workExtinguishers never take a break. In fact, they often brag about working late at night or early in the morning. You get emails from them at all hours of the day and while they are supposedly on vacation. For example, on Sunday nights, Extinguishers might send tons of messages in preparation for the busy week they are about to create for you. This can create pressures to respond when employees are supposed to be disconnecting. But, Extinguishers do not believe in work-life balance. They prioritize work over life and often expect you to do the same.Unfortunately, Extinguishers bad examples create harmful expectations. Actions are much louder than words when leaders never disconnect, neither will their employees. Plus, employees start to believe that being always on is required to get to the next level. This can create unsustainable expectations about what it takes to be a leader.If you never see your leader disconnect or if you consistently get messages during off hours, you are probably working for an Extinguisher.Extinguishers believe theres only one right wayFinally, Extinguishers think theres one right way to do everything and its their way. How do you become a leader? By following their exact path. How do you achieve that big goal? By taking the steps they would take. Extinguishers dont recognize that there are many ways to be successful.This is a recipe for disaster. Processes will never evolve and improve if organizations stick to the way its always been done. Plus, we know that career paths do not look the same for everyone. Your strengths, background, and goals are unique. Each leader makes it to the top in their own way. Extinguishers discourage uniqueness and make it harder to lead authentically.If your manager shoots down new ideas, only offers advice based on their own experiences, and micromanages you to do things exactly their way, theres a good chance youre dealing with an Extinguisher.If you spot these warning signs, think about ways to build a support system that can help protect you from their negative behavior. If youre feeling courageous, you might even try sharing some feedback so they have the opportunity to grow. Its also wise to start mapping out a plan to move on before things get worse. And when youre interviewing for a new role, dont forget to ask some probing questions to see if your potential new boss shows any of these red flags. Its the best way to avoid jumping from one Extinguisher to another.

Dezeen Showroom: Swedish studio Interesting Times Gang worked with design brand Ingridsdotter to produce two new versions of Jonas Bohlin's Liv table, with tops made from discarded fishing nets and takeaway packaging.Interesting Times Gang and Ingridsdotter launched the Liv Mahalo and Liv Tundra tables during Stockholm Furniture Fair 2025, where they served as the centrepiece of a joint exhibition exploring the designers' fusion of Scandinavian aesthetics and circular material approaches.The Liv Tundra table has a top made from recycled takeaway packagingJonas Bohlin's 1997 Liv table was informed by his rowing adventures, with the spindly, curving, powder-coated steel legs symbolising the flow of water through a locked floodgate.In the Liv Mahalo table, this base is paired with a tabletop made by Interesting Times Gang by pressing repurposed fishing nets from the west coast of Sweden to create a blue-patterned surface reminiscent of a surging ocean. Liv Tundra was made in a similar way but using recycled takeaway packaging.Liv Mahalo's top has blue-green appearance that recalls marine environments"The Tundra table top is reminiscent of sea glass on a shoreline, a reminder that beauty can come out the most unexpected places and materials, in this case discarded take away packaging and yoghurt containers," said Interesting Times Gang."Our combined reflection on the world of water, essential for all life on Earth, becomes our common language in this collaboration."Product details:Product: Liv tablesDesigner: Interesting Times Gang and Jonas BohlinBrand: Interesting Times Gang and IngridsdotterContact: hello@itg.studioDezeen ShowroomDezeen Showroom offers an affordable space for brands to launch new products and showcase their designers and projects to Dezeen's huge global audience.

French president Emmanuel Macron has announced that the cauldron balloon, a symbolic attraction of the Paris 2024 Olympics, will return to Paris every year until the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.Originally launched at the start of the Paris Olympics last year, the balloon is set to return on June 21, coinciding with France's Music Day celebrations, and will continue to appear through mid-September each year until 2028.The cauldron will return to the Jardin des Tuileries, where it was located during the Games as a nod to France's history of flight and hot air balloons."She will come back every summer," said Macron on X. "From the music festival to the sports festival, to the Los Angeles Games."The Paris Olympic cauldron balloon is set to return every year up until 2028Created by French designer Mathieu Lehanneur, the Olympic cauldron references traditional hot-air balloons and was designed to be "a beacon in the night and a sun within reach".The balloon measures 30 metres in height and has a seven-metre-wide ring of fire at its base that lights up with a non-combusting "electric flame".Instead of using fossil fuels, the cauldron balloon is illuminated by 40 LED spotlights that shine through a cloud of mist generated by 200 high-pressure nozzles. Powered entirely by renewable electricity, the Paris cauldron is the first in Olympic history to be lit up without the use of fossil fuels.Read: The Grand Palais was the most significant building of 2024The balloon was ignited by French athletes Marie-Jos Prec and Teddy Riner during the 2024 opening ceremony, ascending 60 metres into the sky every evening while remaining on the ground during the daytime throughout the Olympics.The cauldron balloon is the third design that Lehanneur created for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, following the torch and the relay cauldron.Lehanneur's previous works include the transformation of a Renault 4L car and a collection of 3D-printed aluminium sculptures based on population statistics.The photography is courtesy of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.The post Mathieu Lehanneur's Olympic "flying cauldron" to return to Paris appeared first on Dezeen.

Hyundai has spied a design opportunity in India. That country, the world's most populous, is home to 1.46 billion people. But car ownership is extremely lowjust 6.7% of Indian households own automobiles. Instead, 75% of vehicles on the road in India have two wheels. For Indians who can't afford a car but need more than a two-wheeler, the three-wheeled auto-rickshaw is a popular choice. "Roughly 8 million auto-rickshaws are on the roads across the country," wrote the ClimateWorks Foundation in 2020, "and they are the main source of daily income for millions of drivers as well as a major mode of transportation across income groups."These auto-rickshawscalled tuk-tuks outside of Indiahave dated designs that look decades old: Hyundai asked their design team to develop something better. The result is this Electric Three-Wheeler Concept, designed specifically for conditions in India, from both manufacturing and UX standpoints. Let's start with the UX. The vehicle has a flat floor and a wheelbase longer than typical in the category, to provide more legroom for the passengers and a better sitting position for the driver. The tires are larger than usual, better allowing them to deal with poor road conditions. There's a recovery hook, allowing the vehicle to be pulled if it gets stuck in a bad pothole.The Indian climate was also taken into account for the design. The vehicle can increase its ride height, allowing it to ford waterlogged streets during the monsoon season. While the interior materials haven't been settled upon, Hyundai says they're "exploring water resistant materials." And the plan is for the roof to use a type of low-gloss paint that will allegedly reduce the interior temperature in sweltering Indian heat.The vehicle uses mostly flat panels, for ease of manufacturing, and would reportedly incorporate recycled plastic. The company says they're "adopting a modular approach to ensure simple and practical manufacturing. The materials suggest a harmony between local sourcing and the potential for sustainability." Hyundai's design team also produced the four-wheel concept you see above, but say that they're "exploring global opportunities" for that model rather than pitching it for India.Lastly, the company says they're in talks with TVS Motor Company, an Indian manufacturer of auto-rickshaws, about possible production.
