Let's Make Work Human

In a world where workplaces are toxic for people, and humanity has been squeezed out by outdated rules, how do leaders who care create unbreakable workplace cultures brimming with belonging, transparency, joy, flexibility, purpose, care and results? The path lies in unbreakable connections and real partnerships that debunk and demolish old habits. This podcast, Let's Make Work Human, has the answers. Together, we tackle toxic work culture, leaders who are bad for people, parenting, all the -isms, and so much more with an irreverent and honest look at what it takes to make every workplace fit for the humans who work there. We are on a mission to restore humanity to work, for all of our sakes, and for all future generations.
