“I'm often head down, what's next, let's keep going. And we don't often take time to pause and reflect on what has been, how far we've come, what kinds of things we can celebrate. Once we did that it kind of helped us move on to the next phase.”
“When we were figuring out this new path to purpose as a company. We wanted to make sure that one of our tenants was that we put some real solid foundational frameworks around what we were doing, one to hold us accountable to help us have a peer group to learn from, and two to indicate to our stakeholders that this was more about who we are and not a program or a passing thing that we were going to try. It was going to be deeply ingrained in the business in all kinds of ways.”
“You're measured in many areas of how you operate: governance, workers, community, environment, and so then you receive a score, and you have to hit a certain threshold in that scoring to be considered a B corp and receive that certification.”
“We have 60 people that work for us. What could happen if those 60 people had true ownership?”
“To us, this is part of your real work. So we do not ask people to do this on the weekend or in the evenings. They take time out of their day and we account for that when we're resourcing our teams… that people will be spending time on these efforts.”
“We are all about this ‘rising tides raise all ships’ mentality. So we wanted to broadly share everything that we're about with the hope of inspiring others, because again I believe that's the way things get better.”

“The research seems to show quite clearly that these are competencies that can be developed. It is classified as an intelligence for a few specific reasons, one of which is that it actually can develop with with age.” (Mark)
“I like to think of cognitive intelligence a little bit more like bones. It increases to a certain age and then it gets relatively set where emotional intelligence or the competencies in the domain of EQ seem to be a little bit more pliable based on implementing techniques.” (Mark)
“If a system works well, it doesn't mean it will accomplish what it needs to just because the system itself works well. The people themselves can hamper that.” (Theran)
“We were chatting with a partner in our network recently who said, ‘Covid wasn't the problem. Covid was just the start of the infection, and we're really beginning to see the organ failure.’ Now that's coming as the result of the infection that spread, and human nature will take the easy way out which is often the maladaptive coping mechanism which is focused on current state.“ (Theran)
“Something of a mistake that's being made in the investment that companies are making is they're investing in the fruit and not investing quite as much in the root constructs that will make the fruit possible.” (Mark)
“The human side of business is starting to show greater fruit than the systems and processes and bureaucracy that was part of an era that unfortunately is bygone.” (Mark)

“There's a real disconnect between the jobs that people are applying for and the jobs that are available.”
“There's a disproportionate amount of people trying to get into remote work, and so those remote jobs might be like 15 percent of what's posted, but then they're getting over half the applications.”
“The largest number of jobs are being created at small businesses. So, companies with fewer than 50 or under a hundred employees, that is where the greatest amount of job creation is happening.”
“Two of our just like standard rules is everyone gets a response within seven days. They never go more than seven days without communication. Of course, there's someone that is going to say we missed that for them. It happens. We're human. But for the most part, I would say about 99 percent of people have that experience with us. And it's as simple as that they get a rejection email if it's a no. And we let them know at every step, like where they stand.”
“[Generation Z is] pushing more for balance. They're pushing more for, um, You know, workplaces that treat them like humans.”
“I think there is this common pattern where every generation kind of says, ‘They don't work as hard as we did’ or that's dealt with it as like a millennial that ‘We were entitled’ and all of that, but I think actually listening and embracing where they are in realizing they actually have a pulse on the future in a much better way than some of your mope seasoned people.”
“I think the social media stuff is a really good example of that. 15 years ago, employer branding was getting yourself on one of those lists, like a best place to work list… that was like top notch employer branding. Today it's your people being on social media saying, ‘I love where I work and here's why.’”

“My stance is that the hybrid work debate is over, and people really need to start figuring out how to do it right. Instead of grappling over whether we should do it, it's about how to do it so that you continue to engage your people and have a high economic returns.”
“If you want to retain your talent, keep your talent happy, and bring in more and better talent, the way to go is hybrid work.”
“The energy that I get from the collaboration, the productivity that I get with my team, or just even getting to know them on a more personal level, having lunches and snacks and drinks or whatever it is you want to do… It's, it's totally worth it. And lots of data out there shows that two to three days a week doesn't decrease productivity. The benefits really outweigh the cons.”
“The best practice out there is that hybrid work should be made at the team level. And when it is made at the team level, the studies have shown that the amount of talent and diverse talent that you can attract increases.”
“Allstate, for instance, adopted a model of team level agreement and job applications rose 23%. But the most interesting part is that there was a 33% increase among women and people of color. So what you were referring to—women, people of color, people with disabilities—hearing that there's more flexibility in where they work, you're going to attract better and more diverse talent.”
“Microsoft found that employees who met with their managers in person within the first 90 days were more likely to seek feedback, feel included and trusted by their team, build strong relationships with colleagues, and feel supported when discussing tough issues with their manager.”
“Happy employees drive economic return. So this fits right into the talent optimization wheelhouse. Take care of your people, be intentional about it, listen to them, and you should have a pretty good result.”

“We do want to make sure it's fair. We do want to make sure that we have diverse organizations because that helps with innovation and attracting, retaining top talent. The problem is a lot of hiring processes are broken. There's bias that permeates all throughout workplaces, and it leads to cultures that aren't diverse, that aren't inclusive. DEI aims to level that playing field.”
“The problem is people didn't take the right steps to really lay a foundation and educate their workforce on why this matters. And I think ultimately they looked back and said, ‘We're not sure we moved the needle with the work that we did.’”
“Most of the clients we're working with, they're not contemplating not doing DEI. They're just trying to figure out what's the next level. And I think they're just not as vocal as the people who are against it.”
“We want to make sure this work is data-driven and not just emotionally-driven, and that can come in the form of surveys or focus groups. Having a third party come in and provide a fresh perspective or town hall discussions that allow you to just get an overwhelming amount of data to be able to say, ‘All right, what insights do we see here? What themes do we see here?’ And that will help prioritize and narrow down the focus that an organization should have.”
“Most organizations have data. The question is, is it good enough data to draw the type of insights we need?”
“We spend so much time at work, and to have poor cultures is really just unacceptable from my perspective. That's why I'm so passionate about this work.”
“People who don't feel like they belong, they're not going the extra mile. They're not showing up to the optional meetings. They're not going to the optional happy hours. They're not overly communicating in team meetings. They're withholding some of their thoughts. They may visibly look disengaged in team meetings and things like that.”

“The real problem is that one of the greatest human fears is a fear of rejection, a fear of failure.”
“We're always influencing others, and so if you can be confident in where you're coming from—when you start that—it's going to make everything else more seamless.”
“If you approach any type of conversation from a place of authenticity—and that's just really being your authentic self—it’s going to allow other people to be their authentic selves and you're showing you're secure enough in who you are, and that just opens the door for other people to meet you where you're at.”
“When I look at values, they can be different based on your different buckets of life.”
“How do you want people to feel when they work with you? What are they saying when you're not in the room?”
“One of the things that we forget when we show up in a work setting sometimes is that our passions are allowed to be brought into our work.”
“If you start to figure out ways you can add value and it does not have to cost money, that's when you're going to see everything shift for you because then the rest of this becomes easy.”
“People are telling us how they want to work with us, how they want to be sold to. They're telling us how you communicate with them. It's our job to pay attention and add value.”

“We rarely talk about the human element and every business has some element of a defensive moat internally. How can we actually bring that to life?”
“If you think about the essence of business, it predates investor evolution, right? Two individuals sharing goods, sharing value and realizing that, ‘Hey, if I give you this and you give me that, it creates more value in my life than I could ever bring it to myself.’ And in turn, it creates more value in the world than we could ever create individually. That is human.”
“If we can continue to help businesses realize that this macro level shift is happening, we can empower more individuals while also helping businesses succeed in this new future and in turn at a really high level, making business more human because that is the differentiator.”
“The next big platform shift, which we're on the precipice of right now, is this evolution of AI and ‘What does this mean?’”
“As the proliferation of automation and AI takes off, the need for human judgment increases because we have more things that are automated and out there running on their own. So you need more checks and balances. You need humans involved.”
“There are examples of tech companies, especially larger ones, saying ‘We're going to mandate that we're going to cut because we're investing in AI. So we're just not going to backfill the positions.’ They almost need to prove that AI is working.”
“You have time to plan for the impact that AI is going to have in your business and to plan it in a positive way. And you don't need a strategy right now, today. You need to develop a strategy over the next two to three years so you can start to build.”
“The gift of the last platform shift—which is digitization, the ability to create automation—is allowing us to implement technologies internally that can make it so that we can customize the employee experience, tailor it not just to the individual's needs, but to the business needs.”
“The imperative today really comes down to ‘What data are we actually collecting? What is our strategy and plan?’”

“When I started my career, Matt, I thought I was going after money, titles, advancement. I wanted to run a company. I was very brash, bold. I worked hard. About 20 years in, I woke up one day and said, this doesn't feel right. It feels hollow.“
“People who have a purpose tend to be happier. Many of us derive our purpose from our work.” “It is, I think, very courageous work to really lean into and and have convictions related to your personal purpose. And if you're a leader or a founder or an owner, your cultural purpose as well.”
“I woke up one day and just realized, ‘This isn't good. I am unhappy. I'm on a bad path.’ Like I thought this is what I wanted, but I am experiencing no joy, right? And not only am I experiencing no joy, what I am giving to my family and my friends and even the people I work with during the day is I'm sucking their joy away also, right? This is not where I want to be 20 years from now.”
“I am looking for purpose-aligned work, and I'm looking for a culture that supports humans and supports doing that kind of work. That is what KidGlov is all about.”
“I think back to the pandemic when the world was crazy and we were all working from home overnight and just trying to figure it out. Like for us and our team, it was so rewarding to know that. ‘Hey, the world's gone a little bit crazy here. But every day I get up, I'm helping kids. I'm helping seniors. I'm helping families. You know, I'm, I'm helping advance the arts.’ It makes coming to work that much more rewarding.”
“We have chosen this space because this is the space that we love.”
"As we went through the rigorous process and the certification and the verification, We became a better company because it pointed out some areas where we could improve. And now we've just recertified at even a higher score.”

“It's like the question I ask every team member before hiring them or regular check ins: ‘What is the why now?’ because that can change over time, but we have to be rooted in the why.”
“Life goes so fast. And we all can see seasons in our life where we're like, ‘How is that? Is this year already at this point?’ It just gets faster as you get older and you have to be present. You only get this one shot.”
“So you’ve got your mission and vision, and then you've got your values, but then your lived way of being is what I would call a culture code.”
“I love the people-first way of showing up. The mentality of ‘people first,’ I love that. It is sometimes overused. People forward is the outcome. We did the work. We are moving people forward through our mentality and the way of showing up. And that is where the name comes from.”
“At the end of the day, that person is also going to benefit from you walking them not only out the door but helping them to get to their next place that's a good fit.”
“You took the oath that said, ‘I'm here to lead people. I have a responsibility and therefore the first thing is self-awareness and accountability. Am I doing that? Or am I, am I sitting in the seat?’”
“I am empathetic to changing 30 years in. Having to do that is hard. A tech change and all the way that we do things on the backend. It's so hard.”

“We're not trying to create an open playing field or an iron wall. We're trying to create a fence. You decide what you let through. You decide what you don't let through.”
“I didn't see anything out there and I was like, people need a guidebook. They need a playbook on how to do this, what to do if it doesn't go well, how to develop the language, the conversational literacy just like a literacy for any, any other skill.”
“It is really tough in here. It's really tough out there. And that's not going to change. I'm not trying to be negative. I'm trying to be realistic.”
“When you think about intergenerational conversations about mental health at work—that's a doozy—I think that finger pointing is just so unhelpful. And that's what people tend to do really easily because it's, it's easy and it's patterned and that's what different generations do.”
“Even though there are more resources than ever and more people are getting help than ever, our global mental health and rates of mental illness are worse than ever.”
“When you feel like you have some semblance of control over something, or you have the ability or the self efficacy to be able to develop the skills to be able to handle that, in an uncertain and chaotic world, that should feel like a nice cozy blanket.”
