A data-driven podcast ABOUT MAKING WORK BETTER
We are two culture experts conversing with fascinating people doing big things inside their organizations – as well as with authors, consultants, coaches and other individuals who have a story to share or really inspirational research. We always share FRESH, PRIMARY data and insights related to the topic at hand, and we discuss all kinds of topics from both the individual employee and the organizational perspective, answering big questions like:
- how do we make work more human and empathetic?
- how do we build resilience in ourselves and our staff?
- how do we TRULY attract the people we want to our organizations?
