Let's Make Work Human

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In a world where workplaces are toxic for people, and humanity has been squeezed out by outdated rules, how do leaders who care create unbreakable workplace cultures brimming with belonging, transparency, joy, flexibility, purpose, care and results?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.

    The thing we can all feel. For this super-succinct but fire-filled episode, Moe talks about coming home from her recent sabbatical, and the interactions she had that further illuminate something: work has changed for folks... like, for good.

    We've probably all had moments at a job when it was assumed that we could learn and grow through means that actually don't work. An unsafe work environment, telling ourselves to "calm down!" in situations that are uber stressful, feeling like we need to understand certain skills that we haven't practiced yet, and then feeling less-than when we can't..... yeah. Know what we mean? On this electric episode, we met up with Trevor Ragan...
