  • 34: The Coaching Habit, with Michael Bungay Stanier
    For our first episode after a short hiatus, we're bringing the energy in this chat with Michael Bungay Stanier, founder of Box of Crayons - a company that helps organizations do less good work and more great work - and author of The Coaching Habit and Do More Great Work.
    Listen to hear how anyone can coach in 10 minutes or less and why that doesn't mean you need to become "A" coach. Also, learn whether you have an advice monster living inside of you! :/

  • 29: Creating a People-Driven Company, with John T. Meyer
    How important is company culture? For John T. Meyer of Lemonly, a visual storytelling firm based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, it's about more than just keeping employees productive and happy - it's about raising the standard.

  • 27: Social Recruitment and Retention, with Katrina Collier
    Katrina Collier is a social recruiting trainer, speaker, and founder of The Searchologist. She teaches companies how to get candidates' attention and the benefits that follow - like increased engagement. It got us wondering: what if we apply some of the same principles for engaging employees we already have?
    In this episode, we discuss how recruitment and retention has become one and the importance of adopting social collaborative skills to encourage authentic, diverse interaction within an organization toward creating a culture that helps employees feel like they belong.

  • 25: Gender Diversity & Equality, with Sangita Kasturi
    Equality in the workplace is critical for innovation, so how can we make sure we're not excluding others as a result of specific inclusion efforts?
    Sangita Kasturi, a diversity and inclusion expert and founder/CEO of Action Inclusion, discusses gender diversity while helping us remember the importance of including men in the conversation.
    We chat about perceptions of both men and women, why recognizing bias in all directions is critical to truly achieving equality in the workplace AND at home, and what truly inclusive behavior looks like.
    For more information or to contact Sangita, please visit www.ActionInclusion.org, follow her on Twitter @ SangitaInSight, or email her at [email protected]
