Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. 

 

This week I’d like to share a conversation I had a while back with Liz Fosslien. Liz is the co-author and illustrator of the Wall Street Journal best-seller No Hard Feelings: The Secret Power of Embracing Emotions at Work. She’s also the Head of Content at Humu. Humu is a company that makes work better by using behavioral science and machine learning to make change easier. Liz's writing and illustrations have been featured on or by The New York Times, the Harvard Business Review, The Economist, WNYC, and NPR’s Marketplace. I am absolutely thrilled to have her as a guest!

  

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone experiencing burnout, remote workers, and those who have experienced a lack of belonging at work.

 

TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…Liz teaches us about the secret power of embracing your emotions in the workplace in an appropriate and productive way. She talks about creating an environment of belonging and preventing the infamous office blow-up. She breaks down emotion, expression, and burnout, and talks about how we can be more productive leaders when we are reflective by employing EQ to create a healthy and productive work environment. Becoming a more present leader can help keep you and your team from experiencing productivity-killing burnout! Liz also discusses practical strategies for efficiency and efficacy in the workplace.

 

WHAT I LOVE MOST…“You can’t pour from an empty cup.” Liz flags this analogy and its importance in the workplace, especially for leaders.
