In this episode, Shawn and Sarah sit down with the dynamic duo Lori Richards and Cass Bergemann from Mueller Communications, where culture isn't just talked about, it's lived every day. If Mueller had a theme song, Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" accurately represents the organization's energy and momentum, and this humanscape conversation delves into how it all comes together. Lori and Cass share how their team brings humanity to the workplace through their Cultural Canvas, values like "clear is kind," and the powerful demonstration of celebrating parenthood. You'll hear how mentorship, feedback and fun come together to build a truly people-first culture. This conversation is a masterclass in making work more human.
