What's the Secret to Achieving CLARITY in Diverse Workplaces?

Too many diverse workplaces struggle to build clarity and connection across cultural and communication gaps.

What happens when a community leader brings comedy, curiosity, and courageous questions into the boardroom?

You get Jason Doiron—a leadership and dialogue expert at The Purposeful Group—who helps diverse teams unlock deeper connection through intentional hosting and vulnerability. In this episode, Jason sits down with Bernie Franzgrote and Wayne Pratt to explore how leaders can build better communities at work by creating space for real conversations, honest mistakes, and shared purpose.

You’ll hear stories from the frontline of community innovation, including Jason’s work with Fuckup Nights, a global movement that celebrates failure as a foundation for learning. He also explains why hosting conversations is more powerful than facilitating, and how using humor across cultures is a bridge, not a barrier.
