This week on The Internal Comms Podcast, host Katie Macaulay is joined by Global Belonging, Equity and Impact Consultant, and self-styled ‘human-centric technologist’, Bob Watanabe.

Bob has been working in HR technology for over two decades and is a fierce believer in always doing something to make someone’s life better. His human-centred approach brings new light to business challenges, workplace culture and colleague connection.

Always the optimist, Bob guides Katie through his formative experiences as an Asian-American person who has often been, to quote Bob, “the only one in a room.” He shares insightful anecdotes from leaders who have shaped him as a person and offers invaluable advice for today’s leaders as they navigate this new, fragmented world of work. And he flies the flag for always leading with kindness, at work or elsewhere.
