Welcome to the 100th episode of the Awesome Office show. Yep, you read that correctly - 100 episodes. (Crazy, right?) Those of you who have been on this journey with us from the beginning know that the show has evolved a bit over these past 99 episodes. Since launching back in 2015, we’ve interviewed bestselling authors, learned from CEOs of some of the fastest growing companies in the country, recorded in front of live audiences, and of course, added a co-host - the lovable Sean Spear of Hughes Marino. But we believe - and I hope you agree - that as much as we’ve changed, the core mission has stayed the same: to provide meaningful insights on culture and leadership that will help you improve your business or just become a better version of yourself. With that in mind, for our 100th episode we’re taking a look back at the top ten clips from the past fifty episodes. (Reminder: if you like this, also check out our 50th episode which is a mash-up of our first 50 recordings.) You’re about to hear the concepts, insights, and stories that will help you become a better leader, improve the relationships and culture of the communities with which you’re involved, or perhaps just see things in a new and more evolved light.
