On this episode of the BragWorthy Culture podcast, Jordan talks with Dr. Alex Gupad. Alex is an internal communications consultant for Scarlett Abbott in York, UK. He has his Ph.D. in Philosophy with a concentration in Social Anthropology. 

Alex talks about his time in Scotland, his educational background and his love for dancing. He dives into what cultural anthropology means and what his job entails. He discusses the relationship between employer and employee, how that dynamic shifted over the years and where the new expectations employees have for employers developed. Jordan and Alex discuss that where a person works impacts their identity and what that means when it comes to selecting jobs. Alex discusses how much progress has actually been made on helping employees feel comfortable revealing their mental health status, its connection to psychological safety when it comes to people putting their mental health first and leadership’s impact on people feeling okay to talk about their mental health.
