This week on Here to Help, Chris chats with Lisa Ramirez his former Chief of Staff, and newly appointed SVP of Operations at Indeed.

As we approach two years of working from home, Chris and Lisa discuss the lessons learned during the pandemic, what worked well and what did not, and how Indeed is preparing to succeed in the years ahead. 

Ramirez's commitment to a beginner’s mindset has seen her excel in her career — and her non-traditional approach to hiring has helped her build creative and high-performing teams.

This week, Chris catches up with American journalist and news executive Emily Ramshaw--  the co-founder and CEO of The 19th, a nonprofit newsroom reporting at the intersection of gender, politics, and policy in the U.S.

Listen to hear about Ramshaw’s views on the future of news and equity and inclusion in journalism.
