What happens when small businesses find themselves battling large organizations in the race for talent? In the podcast, Kristen Appleman, a seasoned professional with over 13 years at ADP, unveils the secret weapon small businesses can use against their Goliath-like competitors.

Appleman underscores the significant role that a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) plays in empowering small to medium-sized businesses. In her role as a senior vice president general manager of ADP Total Source, she shines a spotlight on how a comprehensive suite of PEO services provides small businesses the edge they need. 

Another interesting observation made by Appleman brings Gen Z into the picture. Their vocal advocacy for mental wellness has resulted in a gracious acceptance of open discussions about mental health at workplaces across generations. With an empathetic approach, employers are now learning to accommodate their employees' mental wellbeing through added resources, thereby enhancing employee engagement and retention.

With the right resources and approach, the Davids of today can surely beat the Goliaths of tomorrow.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
