Welcome to my first podcast on Workplace Fairness and Dignity. This launch tells of how I went from fired to podcast. And so in that spirit, I am calling this, my introductory piece: From Fired to Fired Up! On it you’ll hear the following:

A primer on who I am/brief biography;

How I went from fired to launching a podcast;

How I came into the position from which I was fired, and my firing by Webex one year later;

Why I launched this podcast, why I think the topic of workplace dignity and fairness needs to be promoted;

How workplace dignity and respect is considered a “revolutionary” concept and why there needs to be a paradigm shift, normalizing respect and dignity in the workplace;

Things I have learned on this topic, including who tends to bully, and who they bully, including the breakdown by gender.
